90: The mother of the little cannon fodder in the control group is reborn

In City L, Chao Mingyue first went to the home near the high school where Hua Lingling and her daughter had lived for three years. He felt relieved when he found that the door to the home was open.

Fortunately, she was at home, so he didn't have to look for someone all over the world.

Chao Mingyue stood at the door and took a deep breath. After a few times, he straightened his clothes again, then opened the door and walked in with a smile.

It's pitch black.

There were no lights at all in the yard, and even the doors of every room were closed. Something seemed wrong.

But Chao Mingyue, who was preoccupied with asking his wife to forgive him, even if he felt something was wrong, he just thought it was his illusion. He pretended that the door was just closed and did not notice that the doors were all locked.

One push, but it won't move.

Pushed twice, still couldn't push.

Only then did he notice the lock on the door.

"What's going on?"

Chao Mingyue didn't understand. The door was open and the door was locked. It couldn't be that Hua Lingling received his call and forgot to lock the door because she was anxious when she went out, right?

The more I think about it, the more it seems possible.

But what about Hua Lingling’s people now? Where has she gone?

Chao Mingyue locked the door, went outside to buy a shared bicycle, and started wandering around the city.

Pak Cheung Estate, no.

Resort, no.

There are no B&Bs either.

……

Chao Mingyue searched all the houses he knew, but he couldn't find anyone.

One night, Chao Mingyue became so anxious that he had several blisters at the corners of his mouth and oral ulcers in his mouth. He looked haggard as if he had aged several years.

He sat slumped on the curb on the side of the road, his eyes blank and he didn't know what he was thinking.

When his cell phone rang, he immediately took it out of his trouser pocket and answered it without even looking at who was calling.

"Boss, I have a meeting this afternoon..."

Chao Mingyue replied in a hoarse voice:

"Let's push it to tomorrow afternoon. I have other things to do today."

The secretary agreed. After hanging up the phone to Chao Mingyue, he opened the address book and called Hua Lingling.

As before, no answer.

Thinking that his daughter should be awake at this time, he called Chao Shuyu again.

"Hello? Dad? Why did you call me? Is there something wrong?"

Chao Shuyu glanced at the time on her phone again. It was just six o'clock. She played games with her roommate Lao San until two o'clock in the morning last night. Now she was so sleepy that she couldn't even open her eyes.

"Xiao Yu, do you know where your mother is? Did she call you yesterday?"

Listening to his daughter's voice, Chao Mingyue was about to cry.

If he can't get his wife back, will his daughter stop following him?

Does he really want to separate from his wife and children when he is about to spend half of his life?

"My mother? She didn't call me, so I sent her a message saying that I won't go back for the National Day or the Mid-Autumn Festival. What's wrong? Are you going home? My mother is not at home? She should be going somewhere else. Let’s live in a place. I stayed in a B&B for almost a month some time ago. You can look for her somewhere else. If it doesn’t work, just give her a call!”

Chao Shuyu didn't think about the quarrel between her parents. She had hardly seen two people quarreling since she was a child. At most, her mother was dissatisfied with her father because of something, and then her father died. When you don't admit your mistakes, you turn a deaf ear. When you realize your mistakes, you listen uprightly, and then correct them immediately. The two of you have never quarreled.

"Xiao Yu, I, I divorced your mother."

Chao Mingyue choked and said.

"What?! What did you say?! Divorce?! Real or fake!!!"

Chao Mingyue's words were like the thunder that shook the sky, directly blowing up Chao Shuyu.

In the dormitory, several classmates who had been woken up by Chao Shuyu suddenly raising his voice immediately swallowed back the words of accusation and complaint that they almost blurted out after hearing the word "divorce."

The youngest's parents are getting divorced. It doesn't matter if they are woken up. The youngest's family is going to be lost.

None of them could fall asleep anymore. They closed their eyes and pretended to sleep, or they got up and looked at Chao Shuyu worriedly, waiting quietly for the follow-up.

"it is true."

Chao Mingyue quickly explained:

"I just picked up a child in Yangcheng, but I didn't find a family for that child. I wanted to adopt it. I came back yesterday to discuss it with your mother, but your mother didn't agree. Then she went to the M Political Bureau without saying a word. We decided to do it right then. Divorced."

"Adoption?"

After hearing this word, Chao Shuyu couldn't listen to other words.

When it comes to adopting a child, she knows it must be a boy without asking.

Her father had always wanted a son, but her mother didn't know whether it was because of her or not. She knew this.

Now, she doesn't know if she regrets that when she was a child, she was against her younger brothers and sisters because of the affairs of her second uncle's family, and told her mother that she was afraid and that she didn't want to be like her two cousins.

Probably she had no regrets until she heard the news that her parents were getting divorced.

Now, she regrets it.

Because it was her words when she was young that made her mother give up her plan to have a second child, and that's how everything happened today.

Chao Shuyu fell into deep self-blame.

"Yes, but this is negotiable. I didn't expect your mother to divorce without saying a word. Now I can't find her. Do you know where she is?"

Chao Mingyue blew his nose and looked at more and more pedestrians and vehicles on the street, feeling increasingly uneasy.

He is so scared!

I'm afraid that his wife will not be able to think about it...

"I don't know where my mother is, so let me call her and ask."

I don't know if Chao Shuyu heard the other party say "hmm". After she said that, she hung up the phone and called Hua Lingling.

No one answered for more than fifty seconds. She continued to call, but no one answered.

Chao Shuyu couldn't help crying.

No wonder her mother didn't reply to her message yesterday. It turned out to be because her father wanted to adopt a boy he had picked up and was getting divorced.

How sad must her mother be at that time? How isolated and helpless?

Was she afraid? Have you ever felt that there is nothing worth cherishing in life because of her messages?

Could she be the final straw for her mother?

Chao Shuyu cried, and the other people in the dormitory looked at each other, not knowing how to persuade him.

They have seen on the Internet that some parents will get divorced after their children's college entrance examination. They have also seen divorces due to emotional discord, but they have never seen divorces due to adoption of children.

Chao Shuyu's parents already have Chao Shuyu, which proves that they can have children. Why should they adopt children?

Is it to have a son?

They can understand this, after all, most people of the older generation favor boys over girls.
