Xia Chenglin comforted her and said,â The doctor said that your motherâs current condition is similar to that of a child. However, she can actually listen to everything you say, and she understands it in her heart. Itâs just that, psychologically, sheâs very resistant to communicating with the outside world. So donât worry. When you have nothing to do, talk to your mother more. Deep down, she knows that your daughter cares about her.â
Xia Xiaoli frowned slightly.â But I keep feeling that Mom doesnât treat me as her daughterâ¦â
âYou still care about that incident when you were young?âXia Chenglin frowned and comforted her,â Your mother was in the worst mental state at that time, so she often got the wrong person. Donât take it to heart.ââ
Xia Xiaoli nodded, picked up a piece of rice with her chopsticks, and put it in her mouth. She asked again,â Dad, I donât think Iâve heard you talk about Momâs family. Is Mom an only child? Do you have any siblings?â
Xia Chenglin couldnât help but be stunned.â Why did you suddenly ask this question?ââ
Xia Xiaoli forced a smile.â Iâm just curious! Iâm the only daughter of my parents. Uncle also gave birth to two sons, so Iâm especially envious of other peopleâs sisters taking care of each otherâ¦â
âHaha.â Xia Chenglin smiled.â Your mother does have a younger sister, butâ¦â
Xia Xiaoli couldnât help but be shocked. Her mother actually had a younger sister? She asked,âThenâ¦â Where was his aunt? Why have I never heard you mention this before?â
Xia Chenglin looked at her and hesitated. Finally, he said,â Your auntâs personality is a little strange. She committed suicide and passed away more than 20 years ago.â
âSuicide?â Xia Xiaoliâs eyes widened in disbelief.â Why did Aunt commit suicide? Dad, did Mom get depression because of this?â
Xia Chenglin sighed dejectedly and put down his chopsticks.â These are all grudges from my past life. Besides, itâs not something to be proud of. Letâs not talk about it.â In short, Xiaoli, your mother has been very unhappy all these years. There are some areas where she hasnât taken care of you. You should be more understanding. If thereâs anything, just look for me. Iâm definitely on your side!â
Xia Xiaoli still wanted to ask about what happened back then, but Xia Chenglin waved his hand and said,â Hurry up and eat. After youâre done eating, go home. Youâre already married to someone elseâs wife. You should stop coming home.ââ
She pursed her lips and could only put her question aside for the time being.
Neither of them had much appetite. After eating, they barely touched the dishes.
Xia Xiaoli thought of something. She walked into the kitchen and took out an insulated lunch box. She poured the vegetables that were almost untouched into it.
Xia Chenglin smiled.âIs it really girls going out?â
He instructed the servants to clean up the dishes before he got up and went upstairs.
Xia Xiaoli, on the other hand, drove back to Fragrant Tide Garden happily with the thermal box.
After opening the door, only the servant was at home in the huge room.
She threw her bag on the sofa, picked up her phone, and dialed Helian Xunâs number.
âHello, Honey?â Helian Xunâs voice came from the other end in a daze. His voice was clear and moist, but it seemed to carry a trace of unconsciousness. However, it was obvious that he was in a very good mood.
âAh Xun, where are you? Have you had dinner yet? When will you be back?â Xia Xiaoli touched the lunch box and asked coquettishly.
âOh, Iâm outside. I have a social gathering. Whatâs wrong?âHelian Xunâs voice was very gentle, but at this moment, Xia Xiaoli vaguely heard a womanâs coquettish voice from the other end.
âWhere are you socializing? Did you drink again?â Her heart trembled as she asked.
âI was at a clubhouse. I just drank a little. Whatâs wrong?âHelian Xunâs voice began to sound a little impatient.
âYouâ¦â Xia Xiaoliâs lips trembled as she hung up the phone.
He stood up and picked up the thermal lunch box. He strode into the room, opened the lid, and poured the whole dish that was still warm into it.
She threw the lunchbox into the sink and walked out with a frown.
Helian Xun hung up the phone, frowning slightly.
âMr. Helian?â The middle-aged man in his forties looked at him in confusion.â Whatâs wrong? Did my wife call?â
Helian Xun smiled and placed the phone on the coffee table.â Youâre too strict.ââ âHehe, itâs good to be strict. It means that he cares about you.âThe middle-aged man picked up the beer and poured it into his mouth. Beside him was a bare-chested woman.
Helian Xun picked up the wine in front of him and lightly pecked at it, intentionally or unintentionally.
The entire room was in an uproar. Only his gaze was cold.
The ladies around him looked at his seductive face, but they were also frightened by the coldness he emitted and did not dare to approach him.
Director Chen, who was in charge of the organizing committee, also came to his side with a glass of wine. He reached out and patted his shoulder. His eyes signaled to the women around him and asked,â Whatâs wrong? Not a single one?â
Helian Xun sneered and said,â Whatâs so good about these trash?ââ
âOh?â President Chen raised his eyebrows.â Then tell me, what kind of girl do you like? Iâll help you look for it.â
Helian Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and said,â Big eyes, black hair, fair skin, no makeupâ¦â
âIs that all?â President Chen was a little surprised.
At this time, Helian Xun spoke again,â Surname Suâ¦â
âGood!â President Chen put down his cup and stood up.â Little brother, wait for me.ââ

Helian Xun watched him leave, her eyes filled with drunkenness.
Chen Juanqi crossed his arms and looked at the women in heavy makeup.â Is there anyone surnamed Su among you?â he asked.â
The women looked at each other. Those who came here to work were all using fake names. Who dared to use their real names?
âAccompany a buddy of mine for one million a night. Thereâs only one requirement.âChen Juanqi smiled wickedly and drew a finger in the air.
âItâs me.â A small fair hand was raised high, and a soft voice came from the whispers of the women..
