Chapter 167
Xu Xiuhe picked up his phone, searched for accompaniment music, and cleared his throat.
"My hawthorn tree romance, only with you can it be pure, I can abandon my bottom line, locking my gaze on you. My hawthorn tree romance, forever standing by your side, I promise my love won't change, sharing eternity like a dancing butterfly. Every time I regret that we didn't meet sooner~~~"
Xu Xiuhe had a naturally pleasant voice, and singing this song "My Hawthorn Tree Romance" gave it a special feeling.
"How was it?" Xu Xiuhe asked after singing.
"Beautiful, why didn't you sing for me before?" Shen Yin asked.
"You never asked to hear it before," he replied.
"If I don't ask, you won't sing for me?" Shen Yin questioned.
"Honey, I was wrong," Xu Xiuhe immediately apologized.
"Then you'll sing for me every day from now on," Shen Yin demanded.
Xu Xiuhe wanted to agree to this request, but could he admit he only knew this one song?
"What, you won't agree?" Shen Yin asked.
"Do you want the truth?" Xu Xiuhe asked.
"Tell me."
"I only know how to sing this one song."
"Only this one? Nothing else?" Shen Yin couldn't believe it.
"There's also 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star,' which I learned as a kid," Xu Xiuhe answered honestly.
"Hahahahaha, as expected from father and son. You both know 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star,'" Shen Yin laughed uncontrollably.
"I'm a little better than him. Besides 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star,' I also know 'My Hawthorn Tree Romance,'" Xu Xiuhe defended himself.
"Aren't you ashamed? You're even comparing yourself to your son. Why don't you mention that you're over 20 years older than him?"
"I'm not ashamed. I have a wife, and he doesn't," Xu Xiuhe said proudly.
Hearing this, Shen Yin wanted to kick this man out of the bed. He was being so shameless, and Xu Yunzheng was still so young.
Unfortunately, Shen Yin was too tired and couldn't stay awake any longer, and her eyes gradually closed.
Xu Xiuhe brought Xu Yunzheng back.
They had a good night's sleep.
The next morning, Xu Xiuhe went to work early, and after Shen Yin and Xu Yunzheng finished breakfast, they packed two bags and went downstairs.
After instructing Li Huanhuan, Shen Yin carried Xu Yunzheng into the car.
"Where are we going?" Driver Big Brother asked.
"Mommy, where are we going?" Xu Yunzheng also asked.
"We're going to Grandma's house."
"What about Dad?"
"Dad went to work to earn money. If Dad doesn't work, he won't be able to earn money to buy food for Xu Yunzheng."
Overhearing this, Driver Big Brother thought to himself, they don't have money? Even if the CEO didn't work now, he'd already earned enough money for them to spend for the rest of their lives.
His monthly salary was an amount they could never reach in their entire lives, yet she said they didn't have money to buy food.
Driver Big Brother wept.
"You can just drop us off at Yuelan Manor, and go home. This afternoon, Xu Yunzheng's dad will pick us up. You may have to travel farther in the future, as we'll be moving back to Ziyue Manor," Shen Yin said.
"Not far, not far," Driver Big Brother hurriedly replied. This job paid much better than driving a taxi, was easier work, and had a high salary. A little extra distance meant nothing, as long as they didn't leave the city.
"Mommy, are we moving?" Xu Yunzheng asked from Shen Yin's embrace.
"Yes, we're going back to our old home. Is Xu Yunzheng happy?" Shen Yin asked.
The little one thought for a while before showing some recognition. After all, children forget things easily, and they had been living in Qinghe Villa for so long. It was normal for Xu Yunzheng not to remember.
"Big, the old house was big," Xu Yunzheng said, gesturing with his hands.
Shen Yin was taken aback. This child was indeed smart. Not only could he speak so much now, but his memory also exceeded her expectations.
"Mommy, Hua Hua," Xu Yunzheng suddenly thought of his little friends.
"Hua Hua and Qiu Qiu will come with us. The other two friends will stay at the villa to watch over our home for Xu Yunzheng, okay?"
Xu Yunzheng clapped his hands, revealing a few small milk teeth.
"Grandma's house," Xu Yunzheng pointed at the Shen family's villa.
"Wow, Xu Yunzheng even remembers Grandma's house," Shen Yin wanted to praise her baby again.
"Big Brother, we're here. We'll go in first. It's hot outside, so you can go home," Shen Yin said.
Driver Big Brother smiled and opened the car door, watching the mother and son enter the house.
Shen Yin knocked on the door.
Shen Lv opened it.
"Brother."
Shen Lv looked dumbfounded. His sister, who he found annoying, had actually come back of her own accord and called him "brother."
"Xu Yunzheng, let Uncle hug you," Shen Lv stretched out his arms.
Xu Yunzheng looked at Shen Lv's face, then at Shen Yin.
"It's Uncle, Mommy's older brother," Shen Yin said.
Xu Yunzheng reached out to Shen Lv, who immediately picked him up.
"Brother, where's Mom?" Shen Yin asked.
Fang Yue happened to be coming downstairs and saw Shen Yin with a delighted expression.
"Yin Yin, you're here! I told your brother not to go to the office today so he could stay home with your dad. I was planning to visit you today."
"Well, now that both your grandson and daughter-in-law are here, it's like we had a psychic connection. You don't need to go anymore," Shen Lv said.
Shen Lv took Xu Yunzheng to play, while Fang Yue pulled Shen Yin aside to look her over.
"Yin Yin, how have you been lately? Not too tired, I hope," Fang Yue asked with concern.
"No, everything's been great recently. Work hasn't been busy, and Xu Yunzheng has been well-behaved," Shen Yin replied, not daring to mention the kidnapping to Fang Yue.
"Mom, what about that childhood engagement I had? What happened to that person?" Shen Yin asked indirectly.
"What about him? Thinking of asking him now? I told you before, if you got married before 22, the engagement would be nullified," Fang Yue said.
"No, I was just curious what that man looks like," Shen Yin said.
This made Fang Yue nervous, not for any other reason, but because she was afraid Shen Yin might have some strange idea again.
"Yin Yin, let me tell you, that man is no good. He's been to prison, and just that alone is a deal-breaker. Plus, you have a child now, and your life will only get better from here. Xiuhe is a really nice man, good-looking and talented, and knows how to make money. I can see he treats you well, too. I even asked him to introduce a friend to your cousin last time," Fang Yue said a lot in one breath, worried that Shen Yin might do something rash again with her history.
"Mom, you're overthinking it. I was just curious and asked," Shen Yin tried hard to explain.
"That's good, Mom is telling you, my eye for judging men is really not bad, very accurate. Xu Xiuhe is a good man, it won't be wrong," Fang Yue emphasized again.
"I know, Mom, Xu Xiuhe is a good man."
"Mom heard from Xu Xiuhe that he has a single friend called Si Ming. Do you know him? What kind of person is he? Could your cousin take a liking to him?" Fang Yue got curious.
"I'm not close with him, but he seems quite wealthy. I've seen him a few times. He has a private restaurant, and the food is pretty decent, I suppose."
