After chatting with Zhang Mu, Xiao Jian drove to find Xiao Jiayou. He needed to have a good talk with him.
Zhang Mu carried Peipei back to the bedroom, and was going to sleep with Peipei. He was terrified by the loss of Peipei today. Only by being with Peipei himself can he really feel at ease.
Peipei slept soundly, even being put on the bed did not wake up, Zhang Mu bowed his head and kissed Peipei, then went to wash.
After washing up, he turned on a small lamp, leaned against the bedside and read a book while waiting for Xiao Jian.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jian did not come back after waiting for a long time, and then fell asleep unknowingly while waiting.
When he woke up again, the bedside lamp had been turned off, Zhang Mu got up in a daze, and by the dim light outside, he saw Xiao Jian standing on the balcony, with his back straight and straight, without moving. what to think.
The night was darker and the dew was thicker, and Zhang Mu was worried, so he took a coat and went out.
The footsteps startled Xiao Jian, he turned around and saw Zhang Mu.
Xiao Jian's body was exhausted, his mind was heavy, and his eyes were bloodshot, which made Zhang Mu's heart ache.
"When did you come back?" Zhang Mu handed him the coat.
Xiao Jian took it, but didn't put it on, and said, "I just came back, did I wake you up?"
"No, I just woke up." Zhang Mu took the initiative to hold Xiao Jian's hand and interlocked his fingers: "Why don't you go to bed when you're back?"
"Can't sleep, it's cold outside, you go in first, don't catch a cold."
"Your hands are colder than mine." Zhang Mu covered Xiao Jian's hands with both hands, and said with a smile, "I'll keep you warm."
There was also a smile on Xiao Jian's face, and he didn't push Zhang Mu's hand away. In the lonely night, he was very melancholy and sad, but now he was suddenly wrapped in a strong warmth.
"How did you talk with Xiao Jiayou?" Zhang Mu asked.
Xiao Jian shook his head and said bitterly: "He has always been obedient to me, and he doesn't refute what I say, but I can feel that he is just perfunctory me, and he doesn't really agree with or understand what I said. But don't worry, he It won't be difficult for Peipei."
"Well, he's just young and his nature isn't bad, otherwise he wouldn't be able to risk his life to save Peipei."
Xiao Jian squeezed Zhang Mu's hand, thoughtfully, and suddenly asked: "Do you think I am a very incompetent father?"
When he asked this question, he had strong doubts about himself, which made Zhang Mu feel distressed immediately.
The Xiao Jian he saw was always confident and strong, calm and composed, as if nothing could overwhelm him, except for fear of heights and taking medicine.
I've never been so depressed and depressed as I am now.
"No one is born to be a father, you have to watch, learn, and improve." Zhang Mu said seriously: "No one can change the past, but you are trying to ease the relationship with him, let alone you Enough is given to him, he is not a child, and he should learn to be considerate of you."
"I missed his childhood after all."
"Brother Xiao, you know better than me. It's useless to dwell on the past. We have to look forward."
"I know, I just regret my willfulness and impulsiveness before."
After Xiao Jian finished speaking, he sighed, knowing that it was useless to think too much.
"Go back to sleep." He led Zhang Mu back to the room.
Zhang Mu gave him a warm hug with a smile, and said: "After standing for so long, you go take a hot bath, I will wait for you on the bed, and warm your bed."
Xiao Jian nodded with a smile, thinking how lucky he was to be with Zhang Mu.
The trafficker who abducted Peipei was soon caught, Xiao Jiayou was so angry that he went to beat him up, and what awaited them was a long and difficult prison sentence.
Xiao Jian also specially greeted the prison, asking them to take care of the two traffickers.
Yang Qiong lost Peipei, so naturally she couldn't let her take care of Peipei anymore, but when Peipei came back safely, the salary that should be paid to her should be settled as usual.
After she left, they had to find another aunt for Peipei, but because of Yang Qiong's incident, they didn't dare to find someone casually.
The aunt I found in the end was recommended by the housekeeper. I have known him for many years, I have rich experience, and I know everything about it.
Zhang Mu and Xiao Jian specially took the time to meet with her. Just in case, Xiao Jian also found someone to investigate her previous affairs, and hired someone after confirming that she was a good character and reliable.
On Sunday, Xiao Jian and Zhang Mu took Peipei and went to pay a formal visit to Xiao Jian's parents.
Zhang Mu carefully selected the right gift, but he was also a little nervous, wondering if Xiao Jian's parents would like it.
Xiao Qing and Yao Xing also attached great importance to this meeting. Seeing Zhang Mu and Pei Pei's attitude was even more amiable, like a family.
When Zhang Mu said "Uncle and Aunt", Yao Xing reminded with a smile on her face: "Is it still called Uncle and Aunt? Should I change my words? I heard from Xiao Jian that you have obtained a certificate abroad, right?"
"I have received it." Zhang Mu looked at Xiao Jian, facing the expectant eyes of Xiao Qing and Yao Xing, he changed his words embarrassingly: "Dad, Mom."
Xiao Qing and Yao Xing agreed with a smile, and each gave Zhang Mu a red envelope.
Zhang Mu hesitated for a while, but still took it and said "Thank you, Mom and Dad".
Peipei's eyes sparkled when he saw the red envelope, and he looked at his grandparents expectantly.
Yao Xing smiled happily, and said, "Don't worry, you are indispensable."
Zhang Mu raised his forehead, pinched Peipei's face, and wondered if you could be more reserved.
Xiao Qing and Yao Xing also gave Peipei a red envelope, and also gave him a longevity lock and a pair of gold bracelets. Peipei is very fond of shiny things, and he couldn't put it down when he got them. He was very happy.
After lunch, they stayed for a conversation before leaving.
Hearing Zhang Mu say that his father still can't accept that he likes men, Yao Xing also comforted him by saying that his father will accept it sooner or later, just figure it out, now that technology is so advanced, it's different to have sex with men or women. What a difference.
He even showed up specifically to say that she and Xiao Qing were more resistant and unacceptable in the past, but now they still figured it out.
Thinking of the absurd things Xiao Jian did before, Zhang Mu felt it was funny, and couldn't help but look at him secretly.
When Xiao Jian saw his parents bring up the past again, he also had a horrible expression on his face.
Xiao Jiayou was not present at this meeting, but it was expected, Zhang Mu and Peipei were probably the last thing he wanted to see now.
But after Zhang Mu thought about it carefully for a few days, he felt that he should meet Xiao Jian, have a good talk, and make a thorough end to the previous matter.
Because of various relationships, he and Xiao Jiayou have never been able to sit down and have a good chat calmly. After so long, Zhang Mu felt that it was time to reconcile.
He and Xiao Jian have Peipei, and Xiao Jiayou is also Peipei's elder brother. He doesn't want their past to be in the way.
When he asked Xiao Jiayou to meet, he thought that the other party would refuse, but he didn't expect Xiao Jiayou to readily agree.
The meeting place was in a private room of a certain restaurant. Zhang Mu arrived early and ordered the dishes in advance, and asked Xiao Jiayou to start serving them when he arrived.
Xiao Jiayou opened the door and came in. Seeing that Zhang Mu was still indifferent, he sat down and started playing with his mobile phone.
Zhang Mu handed him the recipe and said, "See if there is anything else you want to add?"
Xiao Jiayou grabbed the menu, flipped through a few pages quickly, and found that many of what Zhang Mu ordered were his favorites.
His mood suddenly became complicated, thinking that Zhang Mu still remembers what he likes to eat.
"That's all." Xiao Jiayou's tone softened.
He still remembered that it was like this when he was dating Zhang Mu. Zhang Mu scolded him, but he was tolerant and took care of him. He remembered clearly what he liked to eat.
As he thought about it, he remembered the time he spent with Zhang Mu before, and the more he thought about it, the more he regretted it. If he hadn't taken the wrong step at the beginning, things would not have turned into what they are now.
Zhang Mu would not be with his father.
"I ordered some of your favorite food, I don't know if I remembered correctly." Zhang Mu said calmly.
"That's right." Xiao Jiayou was filled with emotion all of a sudden, he looked deeply at Zhang Mu, and said, "I didn't expect you to remember it all?"
Zhang Mu was slightly stunned, knowing that Xiao Jiayou had misunderstood, he smiled nonchalantly: "I have always had a good memory, and it's hard to forget, I didn't remember it on purpose."
Xiao Jiayou's face instantly collapsed.
Zhang Mu continued: "I asked you to come here to talk about Peipei, and also to end our past."
"What do you want to say?"
Xiao Jiayou frowned, he had a hunch that what Zhang Mu said next was definitely something he didn't want to hear.
During the conversation, the dishes were delivered one after another, and the room was full of fragrance. Zhang Mu originally wanted to say that we would talk after eating, but Xiao Jiayou had no intention of moving his chopsticks, so he silently put down his chopsticks.
He sorted out his thoughts, and said seriously: "I have let go of the matter between me and you, and I can finally let go of the matter between you and Lin Chen, and accept it with a normal heart, so I hope you can let it go too. .I said I don't want to see you again, but you are Xiao Jian's son, and I love him so much, so I can't see you. I hope we can start over with a new relationship, and everything before is wiped out , as if it never happened.”
Xiao Jiayou's face was ugly, and he said provocatively, "Did you ask me to show your affection on purpose?"
"Of course not. I'm just stating the facts. I don't need to show off to you about my relationship with Xiao Jian." When Zhang Mu mentioned Xiao Jian, his face was full of love, and his smile became brighter: "I just want to get along well with you, after all We have conflicts, and it is your father who is in a dilemma, you don’t need to treat me as an elder, and I don’t give you the idea of being a stepfather, I respect you, and I hope you can respect me.”
Xiao Jiayou played with the chopsticks in his hand, but said nothing.
Zhang Mu finished the sentence in one go: "And Peipei, he is your younger brother. I know it's difficult for you to accept it for a while, but he likes you very much, and I hope you can treat him a little bit better, even if it's just pretending." .”
"Oh. Have you finished?" Xiao Jiayou raised his head, his eyes were full of sarcasm and provocation, and asked, "Then what if I refuse?"
"It's up to you, I'm just talking about my thoughts, and I can't force you to agree."
Xiao Jiayou smiled, and looked at Zhang Mu in disbelief: "Are you treating Peipei very well?"
Zhang Mu said: "Peipei is my son."
"But it's not your own son, is it? Unless my dad is lying. You have worked so hard for a son who is not yours. I almost thought Peipei was your own son."
Zhang Mu's heart skipped a beat.
But Xiao Jiayou then sneered: "Zhang Mu, I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be so great, to help my father raise a son, and to raise a son with such great love and selflessness. Let me ask you, Peipei was my father's surrogate Or find another woman?"
Zhang Mu's face was as heavy as water, and he said with an ugly expression: "Don't talk nonsense."
"Nonsense? Do I have one?" Xiao Jiayou said, "Isn't it? Then he jumped out of a crack in the rock? Or did you give birth to my father?"
Zhang Mu was so questioned that he was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say for a while.
Xiao Jiayou snorted coldly, thinking that Zhang Mu was speechless, he knew Zhang Mu's purpose, and he was not in the mood to eat anymore, so he got up and went out.
But when he got to the door, he felt unwilling and panicked.
So he stopped, turned around and looked at Zhang Mu and asked, "My dad has treated you like this, are you still willing to follow him?"
Zhang Mu rubbed the center of his brows with a headache, and seriously emphasized: "Xiao Jian is very good to me, not what you think."
"Be nice to you? Have a baby with someone else after being nice to you? Do you think I'm stupid?" Xiao Jiayou obviously didn't believe it.
He paused for a moment, with a hesitant expression on his face, then became firm again, fixedly looked at Zhang Mu and said, "Ah Mu, what happened before was my fault, I know what I did wrong, I shouldn't lie to you, I shouldn't make you sad , I am sorry for you, you should beat me and scold me, but—”
"I really like you. After breaking up with you, I miss you every day. I regret it, so can you give me another chance? I will definitely change, and I will do whatever you want me to do. Treat you very well, better than my dad treats you..."
Zhang Mu carried Peipei back to the bedroom, and was going to sleep with Peipei. He was terrified by the loss of Peipei today. Only by being with Peipei himself can he really feel at ease.
Peipei slept soundly, even being put on the bed did not wake up, Zhang Mu bowed his head and kissed Peipei, then went to wash.

"No, I just woke up." Zhang Mu took the initiative to hold Xiao Jian's hand and interlocked his fingers: "Why don't you go to bed when you're back?"
"Can't sleep, it's cold outside, you go in first, don't catch a cold."
"Your hands are colder than mine." Zhang Mu covered Xiao Jian's hands with both hands, and said with a smile, "I'll keep you warm."
There was also a smile on Xiao Jian's face, and he didn't push Zhang Mu's hand away. In the lonely night, he was very melancholy and sad, but now he was suddenly wrapped in a strong warmth.
