"Mom, will he get angry when he sees me?"

"Are you still worried that he will lock you at home?" Du's mother chuckled.

Du Rui shook his head, stopped talking, but just cooked the dishes quietly and orderly.

After a long time, Du's mother slowly spoke: "Rui Rui, is something happened?"

Du Rui's hand holding the knife paused slightly. Is it because her expression is not good now?

Du's mother pulled Du Rui's hand, took away the knife from her hand, put it aside, grabbed her two little hands, and straightened her body, "Tell my mother."

Du Rui looked at her anxious mother. She seemed to be unable to escape her mother's eyes forever, as if she would always be a bird that she would not want to spread her wings under her care.

Does she want to tell her mother?

The struggle and grief in her heart, should she let this woman who cares about her share the burden with her?

If her mother knew that the man she had been sleeping in bed for so many years was so cruel and eager for quick success or instant benefits, could she afford it?

She can't afford it.

"I thought my dad would come back later, and I felt nervous."

"real?"

Du Rui nodded. She was indeed nervous. If Du Jianhui was still the father who loved her very much, she would act coquettishly and say a few pretentious words, the father and daughter could sit down and talk, but Du Rui knew in her heart that Du Jianhui would want to strangle her to death when he saw her now.

She turned around and continued cooking, "Mom, I'm not at home tonight, and after seeing my dad, I'm leaving again."

Du's mother frowned slightly. She had just met and her daughter was about to leave. She felt extremely reluctant to leave, but she let her daughter go at the beginning, and now she can't stop her daughter's footsteps.

"Will anyone pick you up tonight? Or do you go back alone?"

"Of course someone came to pick me up." Du Rui said with his head down as if he was right.

Du's mother chuckled.

At noon, the mother and daughter were having a meal and chatting, and Du Rui laughed and laughed in the living room.

Du's mother looked at Du Rui's smile and felt satisfied. In short, for her, there was nothing in the world that she cared more about than Du Rui's happiness. For her daughter, she was willing to do anything and could give up anything.

But the stubborn old man, with a stubborn mouth and soft heart, said desperately that Du Rui was not, but he still recited his daughter's name in his dream at night.

In the afternoon, Du Rui walked into the long-lost room. The room was clean and neat, and there was no difference from when she was there. Du's mother leaned against the door, with a slight smile on her dignified face.

"Even if you are not here, I will clean it every day."

"Mom, thank you." Du Rui said lightly.

"Did you say thank you to your mom?"

Du Rui sat beside the bed. A few months ago, she fell in this room crying. Even if her mother was reluctant to let her go, she would still let her go.

She didn't know that in this world, there were several mothers who could be as bold as their mothers, and there were several mothers who could spoil her like their mothers.

But she also knew very well that her mother would make such a decision because she believed that her daughter left for more happiness...

Du's mother sat next to her, Du Rui moved her legs to the bed, leaned her head against Du's mother's thighs, closed her eyes, her mother's arms were always warm and always moved her.

She now realizes that sometimes ignorance is really a kind of happiness.

The Qiao family, Du family, and Xia family, it turns out that fate has long been entangled in the dark. She scolded Qiao An in her heart shamelessly. When she was injustice for Xia Zi, she turned out that she could not escape the relationship.

In the evening, after Du Jianhui came back, his face was a little wrong, which made Du's mother worried and went up to ask, "What's wrong with you? Are you drinking?"

Du Jianhui just replied indifferently: "Nothing."

However, before he could breathe, Du Jianhui was stunned when he saw Du Rui sitting in the living room.

Du Rui stood up.

Du Jianhui looked at the daughter in front of him deeply, feeling indescribable, complicated feelings, anger, dissatisfaction, regret, and longing were all intertwined at this moment.

"dad."

She screamed faintly, and there was no emotion at all in this shallow sound.

The expression on Du Jianhui's face also changed for no reason. In short, no matter how much emotion he had in his heart, it eventually turned into a cold and hard face.

"You still know to come back?"

Du Rui clenched his hands slightly, "Well, I know, how can I not recognize the way home?"

When Du Jianhui saw her expressionless, he never thought that his daughter would come back and see her again. So many things had happened before. Even if she ran away from home and didn't mention it, he asked her to be whipped, confined her, and used her to lead Xia Zixiu to cause a breakdown of the friendship between the father and daughter.

"What are you doing when you are back?" he put down his bag and asked lightly.

Du's mother frowned and pushed Du Jianhui, "My daughter finally came back, you are just like this tone, what are you doing?"

"Dad, let's have a meal. Mom and I have cooked a lot of dishes." Du Rui said lightly.

Du Jianhui pursed his lips and did not dare to do anything in front of Du's mother. He knew that Du Rui was the flesh of his wife. If his wife knew that he had cruelly used a whip on Du Rui, then this family could be said to be disbanded.

He walked to the dining table.

But it is not like a family of three who sits together to eat, and they can be as warm and harmonious as before.

Du's mother looked at the condensed atmosphere between the father and daughter, frowned slightly, and sighed softly, "It's been a long time since the family of three got together, why are you doing it like you want to fight?"

Du Rui picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Du Jianhui's bowl, "Dad, don't you like braised pork? This is what I made, please try it."

Du Jianhui was obviously a little surprised and met Du's mother's chuckling.

"Don't look at me, this is really done by your baby girl."

Du Jianhui lowered his head and took a bite. It was neither oily nor greasy, and it tasted just right, and it might not be as good as what his wife made, but it would be absolutely not embarrassing to take out this craft.

Du Rui lowered his head and ate two bites of rice.

Although Du's mother tried her best to restore the atmosphere of eating, Du Rui had a knot in her heart, and Du Jianhui also had a lot of desire to speak but stopped.

After a meal, I always feel much more depressed.

After dinner.

Du’s mother looked at Du Rui, “When will we leave?”

"I have something to say to my dad, and I'll leave after I finish speaking." Du Rui and Du's mother said.

Du's mother touched her face, "I left in a hurry last time and I didn't pack a lot of things. Mom will pack you up?"

"No, mom, Zi Xiu has it." Du Rui said lightly, "No need to be busy, I'm fine. As long as mom is healthy, I will feel at ease."

Du's mother chuckled: "Why are you so sensible? You don't look like you anymore."

“…”

Du Rui couldn't regard this as a compliment to her.

Du's mother smiled and said, "Go up."

Du Rui nodded, walked up to the second floor, and slowly walked towards the study. Every step seemed to be worth a thousand gold, and pressed on her feet, and she couldn't lift it up.

Knocked at the study door.

"Come in." Du Jianhui's calm and powerful response came from the room.

Du Rui pushed open the door, walked in, and then closed the door.

She was standing five steps away from him, Du Jianhui sat in the leather chair, and also quietly looked at Du Rui walking in.

"What's the purpose of coming back?"

Du Rui pursed her lips, "Why did you not let Xia Zixiu be with me?"

"..." Du Jianhui frowned slightly. For a moment, he seemed to understand something. Qiao Yu knew, did Xia Zixiu know too?

"Haha." Du Rui knew the answer when he saw Du Jianhui's reaction.

Du Jianhui looked up at her, "I don't think he is happy."

"accurate?"

Originally, Du Rui thought that confronting Du Jianhui would be a very difficult time, but at this moment, there was a bit of funny thing in her heart.

"Ten years ago, it was you who colluded with Qiao An that caused the Xia family to be destroyed and displaced, right?"

Du Jianhui's eyes were dark.

"You don't want me to be with Xia Zixiu because you know that our family and him are enemies. The reason why you are willing to hurt me and want to get rid of Xia Zixiu is because you are afraid of future troubles."

Du Jianhui closed his eyes, and she knew it.

"You came back today to question me?"

"No, I just want to find an answer from you." Du Rui said lightly, "Do you regret seeing Xia Zixiu again?"

Du Jianhui looked at Du Rui, "What do I regret? I regret that his Xia family has become a stepping stone for me to keep rising?"

Seeing her father's face, she also knew the answer.

"Du Rui, don't think of me as noble as you think of me, and don't think of yourself as noble as you think of me. Without me, you are nothing. Where do you think your food and clothing come from? Where do you think your carefree life comes from?"
