Chapter 838: Chapter 839: Can’t Wait for My Death Before You Hold Another
Mu Liancheng was radiating an intensely low pressure.
Over there, Wen Quan had suddenly flung himself into Wen Xiaochu’s arms.
Wen Quan sobbed vigorously, “Mom, where did you go? Do you not want anymore?”
Wen Xiaochu, unable to control herself, also hugged Wen Quan tight, “How could I not want you? How could I possibly not want you?”
Xia Yangyang went upstairs.
Watching this mother and son, her heart ached for them too.
But she still said to Wen Quan, “Xiao Quan, Xia Ye is in his room. Why don’t you go and play with him for a while? Your mom and dad need to talk right now.”
Wen Quan was indeed very sensible.
Turning his head to look at Mu Liancheng, who was approaching, he suddenly warned, “I won’t let you bully my mom. Otherwise, I won’t eat, and even though you might want for a son, I don’t want to acknowledge you as a father.”
After finishing his declaration, he humphed and went upstairs.
Xia Yangyang stood aside, feeling sowhat awkward.
Mu Liancheng’s son was certainly full of authority.
Xia Yangyang knew it wasn’t suitable for her to hang around.
The two of them needed to talk alone.
Xia Yangyang said, “I’ll go prepare sothing in the restaurant. You guys co and eat hotpot later.”
Xia Yangyang left.
Only Wen Xiaochu and Mu Liancheng were left in the corridor.
Wen Xiaochu stood atop the highest step.
Between her and Mu Liancheng, only three steps were dividing them, so very close.
Mu Liancheng was very tall.
But from this angle, he still had to look up at this woman.
To be honest, Wen Xiaochu hadn’t changed much from several years ago.
She was just slightly thinner, and the trace of baby fat on her face had disappeared.
Over these years, she had been hiding and running, hopping from place to place.
But he never gave up looking for her.
Only now did he realize that this woman had never held a shred of sincerity towards him.
Even during their most affectionate tis, she was just willingly using him for Mu Lianjue’s benefit.
Perhaps the only kind gesture from her had been leaving their child behind.
Yet even with a child in the picture, her heart belonged solely to Mu Lianjue.
Last ti, if he hadn’t seen with his own eyes…
He almost couldn’t believe…
Just thinking about that scene made Mu Liancheng’s body tense, his blood flow in reverse, feeling as if a fla was consuming his chest, almost ready to explode.
One hand was buried in the pocket of his overcoat.
His fingers were clenched tightly.
But the expression on his face was exceptionally cold.
Mu Liancheng began, “There’s no room for negotiation about Wen Quan, no, he’s already renad Mu Quan. Wen Xiaochu, out of consideration that you bore a son, I don’t want to fall out with you. And don’t use such thods again. I was fooled once, but it doesn’t an it will happen a second ti.”
“Mu Liancheng, you can’t do this. You used despicable ans to take away Wen Quan’s custody, and you even stripped away my visiting rights. Mu Liancheng, you’re a devil.”
“Despicable? Wen Xiaochu, look into your heart and tell , does what I’ve done even amount to one-tenth of what you’ve done? How did you treat back then? You left with that man when I needed you most. You betrayed first. You frad and almost got jailed. Had it not been for my tough luck, I would be rotting in prison by now. How co you couldn’t wait to be rid of when I was practically on my deathbed, and now you’re turning around to bite back?”
Old grievances, one by one, ca flooding back. Mu Liancheng had always felt there was so misunderstanding.
He could never bring himself to believe that Wen Xiaochu would make such a choice.
