After the substitution marriage, I became the CEO's white moonlight

"Doctor Li, actually... Mom and Dad want to talk to you." Xingchen blinked his big eyes and said seriously.

Doctor Li was slightly stunned, then he understood. He smiled and patted Xingchen on the head, saying, "Okay, then I'll talk to your parents."

A family of four came to the cafe and found a seat by the window. The sunlight poured in through the glass window, casting a warm glow on everyone.

"Doctor Li, thank you for your trouble during this period. Xingchen's condition has improved a lot." Su Li said gratefully.

Doctor Li waved his hand and said, "This is what I should do. Xingchen is actually very sensible. He just needs more company and understanding from his parents."

Su Li and Gu Jinyan looked at each other, with a trace of guilt in their eyes. Over the years, they were busy with work and ignored their children's feelings. It was not until Xingchen showed rebellious behavior that they realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Xingchen, mom and dad want to apologize to you." Gu Jinyan suddenly spoke, with a hint of apology in his tone, "In the past, we were too focused on work and ignored your feelings. It was our fault."

Su Li also continued: "It's mom and dad's fault for not giving you enough care and companionship, making you feel lonely and wronged."

When Xingchen heard his parents' apology, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he remained silent, just lowered his head, and his fingers nervously stirred the corner of his clothes.

Seeing this, Dr. Li said, "In fact, children don't need much. What they want most is the love and company of their parents. Sometimes, even just having a meal with them, chatting with them, or playing a game with them can make them feel the love and warmth from their parents."

Su Li and Gu Jinyan listened carefully. Every word Dr. Li said was like a hammer, hitting their hearts and making them more deeply aware of their past mistakes.

"Doctor Li, we will definitely spend more time with Xingchen in the future." Su Li said in a firm tone.

"Yes, we have decided to adjust the working hours and try to ensure that there is someone at home to accompany Xingchen every day." Gu Jinyan added.

After hearing what his parents said, Xingchen finally raised his head and looked at them with expectation in his eyes. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

"Okay, I believe you will do what you say." Doctor Li said with a smile, "It's getting late, and I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After Dr. Li left, only Su Li and her family of three were left in the cafe. The atmosphere suddenly became a little silent, and Su Li and Gu Jinyan looked at Xingchen anxiously, not knowing how to break this awkward situation.

"Dad, Mom..." Xingchen suddenly spoke. His voice was very soft, but it was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

Su Li and Gu Jinyan's hearts were in their throats. They looked at Xingchen nervously, waiting for his next words. Xingchen bit his lip, as if he was organizing his words. After a moment, he raised his head, his eyes flashing with anticipation, "Can I...can I learn piano?"

"Piano?" Gu Jinyan was a little surprised. He had never heard Xingchen mention his interest in music.

Xingchen nodded, her cheeks slightly flushed, "Well, I...I like listening to piano music, I think it's very nice."

Su Li smiled with relief. She gently held Xingchen's hand and said softly, "Okay, Mom supports you. Let's go sign up now."

Gu Jinyan also walked forward and ruffled Xingchen's hair, his eyes full of love, "Dad also supports you. From now on, Dad will go home early every day and practice the piano with you."

Xingchen's eyes lit up instantly, he nodded vigorously, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. At that moment, Su Li and Gu Jinyan both felt the long-lost happiness. It turned out that the happiness of children was so simple.

In order to fulfill their promise, Su Li and Gu Jinyan began to adjust their work schedule. They handed over some of the work to their subordinates and tried to arrange important meetings and affairs during the day so that they could go home early at night to accompany Xingchen. Although the work was still busy, they all felt that it was all worth it.

After some consultation and comparison, Su Li and Gu Jinyan finally chose a music training institution with a good reputation for Xingchen. On the day of registration, Xingchen seemed particularly excited. He held Su Li's hand tightly, his eyes full of anticipation.

The teacher of the training class is a kind middle-aged lady named Liu. She has been engaged in music education for many years, is experienced and patient with children. Teacher Liu conducted a simple test on Xingchen and found that he has a talent for grasping music rhythm and pitch.

"This child is very talented in music. He will definitely achieve something in time." Teacher Liu said to Su Li and Gu Jinyan with a smile.

Hearing the teacher's praise, Xingchen smiled shyly. He secretly glanced at Su Li and Gu Jinyan, and seeing the gratified smiles on their faces, a warm current surged in his heart.

After the first class, Xingchen held the brand new music score and excitedly said to Su Li: "Mom, Teacher Liu said that he would teach me to play a complete song in the next class!"

Su Li smiled and touched his head, "Okay, our Xingchen is awesome! Mom believes you can do well."

Xingchen nodded vigorously, his eyes gleaming with determination. He couldn't wait to go home and practice, and show his learning results to his parents. However, when they got home and opened the door, they found...

When they opened the door, they were greeted by a mess. Toys, books, and even some broken vase fragments were scattered on the floor of the living room. The air was filled with a tense atmosphere. Nanny Zhang was standing at the stairs, looking anxious. When she saw them coming back, she hurried over and said in a low voice, "Sir, Madam, the young master...he has locked himself in his room again and refuses to come out."

Su Li's heart sank suddenly. Xingchen's mood has been unstable recently. He loses his temper easily, locks himself in the room, and refuses to communicate with anyone. They consulted a child psychologist, who suggested that they spend more time with the child and give him more care and love.

Gu Jinyan handed the music sheet to Aunt Zhang and comforted her softly, "Aunt Zhang, go and have a rest first. Leave this to us."

The couple looked at each other, and saw worry and distress in each other's eyes. Gu Jinyan knocked gently on Xingchen's door, "Xingchen, mom and dad are back. Can you talk to them?"

The room was silent, with no response. Su Li's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand. She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calm. "Xingchen, Mom knows you are unhappy recently. Did you encounter something unhappy at school? Can you tell Mom? Mom is willing to be your listener."

There was still no response, only a depressing silence spread in the air. Su Li and Gu Jinyan's hearts sank little by little.

As time went by, Xingchen showed amazing talent in music. He learned very quickly and had a strong understanding ability. He could play a piece completely after the teacher taught it only once. Teacher Liu praised his progress and praised him as a musical genius to everyone he met.

However, Xingchen's personality is still withdrawn. He rarely plays with other children in school. After school, he always locks himself in his room and immerses himself in his own world. Su Li and Gu Jinyan see this and are anxious, but they can do nothing about it.

The performance report of the music training class arrived as scheduled. Su Li and Gu Jinyan arrived at the performance site early, sat in the first row of the audience, and waited for Xingchen's performance with great anticipation.

The lights on the stage came on, and a little boy in a black suit stood out under the spotlight. He straightened his back and played the piano attentively, his fingertips dancing and beautiful notes flowing out, full of agility and vitality.

Su Li and Gu Jinyan's eyes were fixed on Xingchen, their eyes full of pride and relief. This was the first time they saw Xingchen so devoted and confident, as if all the troubles and worries disappeared with the notes.

When the song ended, the audience burst into thunderous applause. Xingchen raised his head and scanned the audience. When his eyes fell on Su Li and Gu Jinyan, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a long-lost smile.

After the performance, Su Li and Gu Jinyan came backstage to give Xingchen a surprise. However, when they saw Xingchen standing with a strange man, their steps suddenly stopped...

"Xingchen, this is..."

"Xingchen, this is..." There was a hint of confusion and uneasiness in Su Li's voice.

Xingchen turned to look at her parents with a shy smile on her face, "Dad, Mom, this is my piano teacher, Teacher Liu."

Teacher Liu was tall, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and looked elegant and easy-going. He smiled and extended his hand to Su Li and Gu Jinyan, "Hello, I am Xingchen's piano teacher, Liu Mingyuan."

Gu Jinyan and Su Li exchanged a few words with Teacher Liu, and their doubts gradually dissipated. Teacher Liu told them that Xingchen had great musical talent, but was introverted and not good at expressing himself. She suggested that they spend more time with the child and guide him to open up.

Su Li and Gu Jinyan felt mixed emotions after listening to Teacher Liu's words. They always thought that providing children with good material conditions was the best love for them, but they ignored that what children really need is the company and care of their parents.

From that day on, Su Li and Gu Jinyan decided to change their working methods and spend more time with their children. They turned down many unnecessary social events, got up early every day to send their children to school, and spent the evening reading and playing games with their children. On weekends, they would also take their children on outings and to the playground to enjoy the rare parent-child time.

Gradually, Xingchen smiled more and became more cheerful. He began to share his interesting experiences at school with his parents and asked them for hugs. Su Li and Gu Jinyan were delighted and touched as they watched their child's changes.

One night, Su Li and Gu Jinyan were discussing work in the study room when they suddenly heard a knock on the door. "Come in," Gu Jinyan said.

Xingchen opened the door, holding a painting in her hand, and walked timidly in front of them, "Dad, Mom, this is for you."

Su Li took the painting and saw that it showed a family of three holding hands and running happily on the grass. The picture was warm and loving.

"Is this drawn by Xingchen? It's so beautiful!" Su Li gently stroked the child's head.

Xingchen raised his head and looked at his parents, tears sparkling in his eyes. He opened his arms and hugged Su Li and Gu Jinyan tightly, "Dad, Mom, I love you!"

At that moment, Su Li and Gu Jinyan's hearts seemed to melt. They hugged the child tightly, feeling the long-lost intimacy and warmth.

It was a sunny weekend morning. Su Li and her family of three got up early and changed into light sportswear.

"Xingchen, are you ready? Let's go to participate in the outdoor expansion activities!" Gu Jinyan's voice was full of anticipation.

Xingchen nodded excitedly, put on his backpack, held his parents' hands, and the family of three walked out of the house, talking and laughing, heading towards a new adventure...
