Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 613: The CEO’s Pursuit Turns into a Crematory of Heartbreak
The greatest regret in life is being a step too late.
Xie Mingyu’s confession was a step too late for Shangxue.
Although Xie Mingyu doesn’t see it that way, Shangxue has her own convictions and beliefs.
Yanyan had been ill for three or four days and finally could eat normally and was lively again.
Yes, lively.
Shangxue was having a headache; before, her son was the most obedient and well-behaved, even when ill he was like a little angel.
Once recovered, he would reach out his little hand to gently touch her face, comforting her.
But now?
"Mommy, I want candy."
Yanyan snuggled in Shangxue’s arms and acted spoiled.
He was still coughing a bit, how could he eat candy?
Shangxue rejected without hesitation: "No, candy is sweet, sweets will make your cough worse. Mommy told you before, how did you forget?"
Yanyan was smart from a young age, he could remember things after hearing them once, how could he forget?
It’s just that now he’s spoiled and arrogant, having been doted on, he’s become somewhat reckless.
This is human nature, children are even more so, they like to test boundaries and manipulate more than adults.
Seeing it wouldn’t work with mommy, Yanyan leaned toward daddy.
These days, with Yanyan being sick, sick kids tend to prefer mommy.
Because mommy has a familiar scent, and moreover, Yanyan had been raised by Shangxue since young.
So this was the few days Yanyan voluntarily went to Xie Mingyu.
Xie Mingyu’s heart was melting, there was an expression of joyous surprise on his handsome face, and he quickly extended his arm to hold this little one tight.
"What’s wrong, Yanyan?"
"Daddy, Yanyan wants candy." Yanyan said softly, acting spoiled.
The child’s voice was soft and tender, moreover his own son was cute and adorable.
Such a cute and adorable little one, acting spoiled wanting candy, how could Xie Mingyu not agree?
Not just wanting candy, even if wanting stars from the sky, Xie Mingyu would wish to pluck them down to gift to his son.
"Daddy will get you candy."
"Mr. Xie." Shangxue frowned, stopping him.
Xie Mingyu said: "Yanyan just wants a candy, it’s no big deal. Kids all like candy, I remember when you were young you liked candy too. At that time I saved you, you refused to leave with us no matter what. But I gave you a candy, you immediately followed. The son is like you, liking candy, what’s wrong with that?"
Shangxue was furious, her face turned blue; now talking about the child, why bring up things from twenty years ago?
"Yanyan is sick now, when sick you can’t eat candy. If you don’t believe, call Miss Ye, Yanyan is still coughing, candy will speed up his cough."
"I know, it’s not like I haven’t been sick."
As a seasoned sick person, Xie Mingyu had the most say about this illness.
"Sweets do make cough worse, but coughing is a process, without worsening it doesn’t get better quickly. Moreover, candy can cheer up one’s mood, and when one’s mood is good, the illness naturally recovers faster. So, candy isn’t completely without benefit, if you don’t believe you can ask Ningwan, from a Chinese medicine perspective, whether a person’s mood easily impacts the illness?"
"Mr. Xie, you’re just being irrational, making trouble with this reason." Shangxue said angrily.
Xie Mingyu laughed and said: "Shangxue, don’t be unreasonable just because you can’t win an argument against me. You know, what I said makes sense."
"Fine, what you’re saying makes sense, then you take care of the child, I won’t anymore. Yanyan is almost recovered, I should be leaving here too." Shangxue stood up, saying with a grim face.
Xie Mingyu: "..."
It was just banter, how did it suddenly turn into leaving?
This is getting out of hand.
"You don’t have to get angry and leave just because you can’t win against me, I’m sorry, can’t I apologize to you?" Since Xie Mingyu started saying sorry, these three words came out particularly fluently, without hesitation.
However, he didn’t know, that repeating it makes it lose its value.
At first, Shangxue was surprised and moved, how did he also say sorry?
Now hearing it often, it seemed nothing, even thinking he said it intentionally.
"I’m not leaving just out of spite, it’s just that I should have left. Cheng Yue’s job is busy too, he’s already been held up here for a long time, I can’t waste his time any more, so I’ve decided to leave with him." Shangxue explained.
Xie Mingyu widened his eyes.
She was not only leaving, but leaving with that other man?
"Shangxue, haven’t you felt anything about how I treated you these days? Are you dead? How dare you mention leaving with another man?"
Xie Mingyu was angry, flustered and exasperated.
Shangxue was surprised looking at him, laughed: "Mr. Xie, can’t think because we could peacefully coexist these days, I would stay? These days it was just because Yanyan was ill, we are Yanyan’s parents, but otherwise, there is no other relation. Are you overthinking some things?"
"I’m overthinking? Fine, very fine, Shangxue, you’re ruthless. I’ve said this far, and you’re still so heartless." Xie Mingyu was flustered and exasperated, his face green with anger.
Yanyan only wanted a candy, who knew it would cause his parents to argue.
Although he didn’t quite understand why they were arguing, but as a child with straightforward thoughts, he thought it was because he wanted candy that they argued. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Thus, he started crying "waa" and shouted while crying: "I don’t want candy, daddy mommy don’t argue, no candy."
These words were heartbreaking for both Xie Mingyu and Shangxue.
Especially for Xie Mingyu, who quickly held Yanyan and comforted: "Yanyan, it has nothing to do with you, don’t be sad, daddy mommy arguing has nothing to do with you."
Shangxue also wanted to say, but Xie Mingyu didn’t give her the chance, holding Yanyan while leaving.
Shangxue sighed.
At this time, Ye Ningwan arrived.
Seeing Shangxue standing here with a troubled face, she asked in surprise: "Why are you alone? Where’s Xie Mingyu and Yanyan? I’ve prescribed some new medicine for Yanyan, this medicine is not bitter, mainly restorative. It can strengthen the constitution, making it less easy to get sick in the future."
"Mr. Xie has taken him away, we just argued, probably scared Yanyan." Shangxue smiled bitterly.
Ye Ningwan frowned, then earnestly said: "Shangxue, it shouldn’t be my place to say this stuff. But since Xie Mingyu was someone I raised from a young age, and I am also a mother, let me say it. You haven’t lived with Xie Mingyu, you don’t really know, how damaging parents’ arguments can be for a child. Just like Yuanyuan and Tuantuan, as soon they see Zhan Hanjue and I unhappy, even Yuanyuan with her lively personality is frightened to tears. These days I’ve observed Yanyan’s character, he’s a child with deep thoughts, if you two don’t restrain yourselves, it could really leave a big psychological shadow."
