Xie Juanting had to deal with those serious criminals almost every day this month. Interrogation, interrogation, execution, and use value were reluctantly kept. If not, they would be directly executed and sent to death.Every day I look at those vicious faces, and I smell the smell of blood and rust mixed together every day.If it were others, few would be able to bear it, but he could, as if he didn't feel pain or negativity, and he didn't even feel bored.

There are not many people in Xie's house, it's deserted, and the servants don't need to be on call 24 hours a day like Bai's house, but it's a little different now, Diandian lives in it, the housekeeper finds a few more young servants to come in, and invites Tutor, now Xie's house has people coming in and out every day, it is more lively than before.If it is a meal, you can also see a sumptuous dinner in the restaurant.

Xie Juanting came back earlier than before, which made the assistant Zhou Ling and the housekeeper feel relieved.

As long as the housekeeper sees that his young master can finish his meal comfortably, and sometimes talk to the children, the scene may not be so warm, after all, there is still a gap between the two of them, but such an ordinary scene will always make him feel Sincerely happy.

The old butler watched Xie Juanting grow up, and his assistant Zhou Ling also followed Xie Juanting when he was very young, so he knew what kind of person his master was.

Xie's tutor was very strict since he was a child. Xie Junting followed his father's example and spent seven or eight years alone in Germany receiving intensive training.Mrs. Xie is a graceful and dignified oriental woman, a haughty and cold beauty, who has never taken care of the young master since she was a child.

However, this does not mean that Xie Junting is a person without feelings, on the contrary, once he puts his heart or trust on him, it can last for quite a long time.But if not, then it is indeed unreasonable and even cruel.The old housekeeper and Zhou Ling are both Xie Juanting's confidantes. Although they usually don't show much enthusiasm, the status of these two people in the Xie family has long been no longer servants.

Zhou Ling is now very convinced that his master likes this child. Although he doesn't know how to hug or get tired of it, he not only went to screen it himself, but also took everyone to Xie's house later, and now he still finds time to come back to eat with him.It is simply too rare, he has been with Xie Juanting for more than ten years, and he has never seen anyone treated like this.It's a pity that children don't understand it very well. Not only do they not feel so honored, but they will feel uncomfortable. They don't say anything and just eat.Every time Zhou Ling wanted to say hello to Diandian in advance and let him take the initiative to say something while eating, but on second thought, the child probably didn't understand.

From a child's point of view, Xie Junting is indifferent and serious and not easy to get close to.But today Diandian actually spoke first.

"Uncle Xie, can I go home?" the child looked up and asked.

Xie Juanting did not veto it quickly, but slowly asked: "Why do you want to go back?"

Diandian feels aggrieved, "Everyone has a home, Uncle Xie, I miss home too, isn't this normal?"

"This is your home." Xie Juanting looked at him, "Have you forgotten, I told you the first day you came here."

When facing the child, his tone was a little softer, "And you agreed at the time."

"It's not like this," Diandian argued anxiously, but she didn't say the sentence "Dad taught me to say and do this", but just said, "There is no dad here, it's not my home, I want to go back..."

Xie Juanting put down the tableware in his hand and got serious: "I am your father."

"You're not..." Diandian didn't agree, in his mind no one could compare with Cheng Yiyang, "My father's name is Cheng Yiyang, you are Uncle Xie, not my father."

"It's true that Cheng Yiyang is your guardian. You used to call him 'Dad'. It's not easy for you to change your mind after so many years, but your real father is me, and it can only be me."

A little bit of grievance, even the shoulders drooped.

Xie Juanting asked Zhou Ling to bring over the DNA test results and point them out.

How could an eight-year-old child understand these things and have no interest in them.

"It's been so many days, why don't you let me go home..." Diandian felt extremely uncomfortable, just wanted to be with Dad, is there something wrong?Why should he be restricted? His eyes were red, and he was so wronged that he wanted to cry, "...you are a bad person."

Xie Junting said, "I am your biological father, and Cheng Yiyang is only taking care of you temporarily. After a while, I will ask him to return my custody."

In fact, Diandian didn't quite understand what the last sentence meant, let alone what guardianship meant, but he could guess that he must be separated from Cheng Yiyang.

Tears came out immediately, and the child burst into tears, "They all lied to me...so they all lied to me! I don't want to stay here forever, I want to go back, Dad, come and pick me up..."

Zhou Ling was almost dying of anxiety watching from the side. His master didn't know how to communicate with the children at all, and what was the truth and reason. Now it's all over, and the children were scared to cry.

Later, I couldn't stand it any longer, so I walked over a few steps and said to Diandian, "Young master, young master, don't cry, don't cry first, please, that's not what the young master meant." He took the handkerchief handed over by the maid and wiped away his tears , "Listen to me, it's like this, your father will come over too, but after a while, you will move here together, you and Cheng Yiyang together, that's what you mean."

Hearing this, Xie Junting frowned.But Zhou Ling's words were very effective in making Diandian stop crying immediately.

"You said Dad is coming too?"

Zhou Ling smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's why the young master said, this is home." Zhou Ling turned his head and glanced at Xie Junting, wanting him to say a few words in cooperation, but Xie Junting didn't.

Diandian sucked hard on her red nose, "You're not lying to me again, are you?"

"I won't lie to you, my young master has always kept his promises."

Diandian glanced at Xie Junting again, wanting to get affirmation, but Xie Junting still had such a cold face, in the eyes of children, it was like an iceberg!

"...I want to be with my father, woohoo, I don't want to be with him," Diandian was frightened and aggrieved, sobbing, "I don't want to live alone..."

"Don't worry, don't worry," Zhou Ling could only promise, "Cheng Yiyang will come over in a few days."

Little tears rolled more and more.It seems that the grievances accumulated in the past few days are vented at this moment, "I sleep alone in the big room every day, I can't see my father when I wake up in the morning, and I can't see my father when I come back at night. There is no sound everywhere when I sleep. I am afraid... ..."

It's really uncomfortable, it was so warm and warm with Cheng Yiyang in Xiaojia before, with laughter and laughter, and a good night's sleep, but now.

"Don't cry, don't cry," Zhou Ling was in a hurry, "Cheng Yiyang will come to accompany you in a few days, okay? Young master, don't cry, if you cry like this again..." He cast his gaze towards Xie Juanting, "Young master, what should I do?" I feel sorry for you."

But Xie Junting has not spoken.

Under Zhou Ling's continuous coaxing, Diandian stopped crying slowly, but she didn't want to eat the food in front of her, so she put the chopsticks aside and made a "bang" sound.

Diandian was never arrogant, this time she was really angry.

Without even looking at Xie Juanting, he jumped off the chair and ran to the upstairs room to hide.

Zhou Ling, who had been squatting all this time, was finally able to stand up, sat in a little position, and put the wet handkerchief aside.

"Master, don't treat this little guy as an adult. You told him a lot of truths, but he didn't understand. Why bother to tell him about genetic testing?"

"You see, you don't spend much time with him every day. Most of the time, he is alone. From the previous state to this one, you have to let him have an adaptation process."

"Cheng Yiyang has brought him for so many years, it is reasonable for a child to recognize him, which shows that this child has a conscience..."

"Don't be too hasty about this matter. Let the child grow up and realize it slowly. If he stays for a few more years, he will naturally know who his father is."

Zhou Ling wanted to continue nagging, but Xie Junting didn't want to listen, so he interrupted and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Ah? What should I do?"

"Cheng Yiyang will come over in a few days." Xie Junting's face was not very good, "You tell me how to come here."

Zhou Ling scratched his head, "Then take him over."

Xie Junting narrowed his eyes.

Zhou Ling immediately sat upright, "Don't be angry, young master! Well, I, I was just...you saw it too, coaxing children... I feel distressed when I see people crying like that, let alone you No... I'll coax him."

"What's the use of coaxing like this? If he doesn't cry today, he will cry in the future." Xie Juanting frowned, "He has to get used to it, the sooner the better."

"How about..." Zhou Ling asked tentatively, "Should I really take over Mr. Cheng? I think he's pretty good. He looks good and has a good personality. Maybe he's better than Master Lu..."

After seeing his master's obviously cold face, Zhou Ling immediately stopped talking and glanced away.

A moment of silence.

The atmosphere suddenly cooled down, and the servants retreated tactfully.

half an hour.

Xie Junting said deeply, "Zhou Ling, I know what you're thinking."

"Huh?" Zhou Ling tried to pretend that he didn't quite understand.

"Don't you just want to find someone for me?"

"I..." Zhou Ling paused, had to admit, and then sighed again, "Master, Bai Lu has been dead for so many years, I don't think there is even a caring person around you, and there hasn't been any, I thought, No matter what, you have to find someone to accompany you."

What happened back then had a profound impact on my master, but now Cheng Yiyang finally appeared. Regardless of other things, after all, it has something to do with Bai Lu back then. Based on this level, maybe my master can favor one or two .

"Don't meddle in these matters." Xie Junting said coldly.

"But Master..."

Xie Junting pushed away the chair and stood up, not intending to listen.

Zhou Ling had no choice but to stop, and quickly stood up.

"Why don't you spend more time with the child, talk to him every night and before going to bed, children need company very much..." He said behind Xie Juanting, and he didn't know if the other party listened.
