Chapter 6: Zhang's daughter
After Zhang Xiao came out of Dragon Court Hotel, she rode on her bicycle and left. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦
The street outside the Dragon Court Hotel was lively and prosperous, with cars flowing like water and horses like dragons. Other than the four-wheeled cars on the road, there were only bicycles that Zhang Xiao could ride on.
She rented a place near the Red Flag Market in the east of the city. It was a place that was made up of several industrial and residential areas. Because she would only set up her stall at night and didn't need to prepare the raw materials for spicy stick, she had her good friend Ye Qing. Thus, she was free to set up shop during the day.
Returning back to the Apartments building, she saw a tall and stern cold man standing at the entrance of the Apartments building, coldly staring at her. In front of the man was a black Mercedes. The man was also carrying several bags, each containing a lot of food.
Zhang Xiao jumped down from the bicycle. As she walked closer to the man who saw her jumping off the bicycle with an even darker face, she laughed: "Director Yi, what wind blew you here?"
Yi Xiu Jie asked coldly: "Zhang Xiao, where did you go? Why didn't I answer your call? "
Zhang Xiao pushed the bicycle past him and entered the Apartments building. She stopped the bicycle at a gap at the bottom of the stairs and locked it, then reached out to take something from Yi Xiu Jie's hands. Yi Xiu Jie did not let her take it, and coldly said: "I'll help you carry it up."
"Then I'll be troubling you."
Zhang Xiao was not polite either, allowing Yi Xiu Jie to help her carry the things up the stairs.
She took the lead and went upstairs. As someone who lived on the fifth floor, she never took the elevator but took the stairs. In her words, she was just exercising her body. Yi Xiu Jie followed behind her, and continued to interrogate her with a low tone: "In the middle of the day, where did you go? You don't have your phone with you? "
Zhang Xiao turned her head and looked at Yi Xiu Jie with a wry smile, and said, "Boss Yi, isn't that a bit inappropriate? Am I not allowed to go out in the middle of the day? When I went out, my phone was out of battery, so I left it in the apartment to charge. "
Yi Xiu Jie scrunched his face and pursed his lips, not saying a word.
Her stalls were set up until 12: 30 P.M., and by the time she had packed up, pushed the cart back into the little house she had rented at the market, and returned to her apartment, it was already early in the morning. She had to take a bath, do laundry, and at least work until 2: 30 in the morning. So she usually slept in the apartment during the day.
"Xiao Er, where exactly did you go?" Yi Xiu Jie really did not give up until he asked the reason. His tone was also softer. Even the way he addressed his had changed.
Zhang Xiao glanced at him again, then curled her lips and replied: "To see someone."
"Who?"
"Mu Chen."
Yi Xiu Jie frowned, "Why are you meeting him? When did you meet? " How could he not know?
Zhang Xiao laughed, and did not reply immediately, and continued up the stairs with Yi Xiu Jie in tow. Yi Xiu Jie did not continue, and followed her up the stairs in silence. After returning to the two bedroom one living room apartment that she rented, Yi Xiu Jie placed a few bags of food on the tea table in the living room, and then took out the food in each bag, and helped Zhang Xiao place the bags of food one by one.
After throwing herself onto the soft leather sofa, Zhang Xiao picked up the pillow on the sofa and placed the food on it for her.
Yi Xiu Jie was of the same type as Mu Chen, tall, handsome, young and rich. He was the Vice President of Haotian Group. Such an excellent man is very charming when he is considerate.
"Mu Chen sent someone to invite me in. Before today, I only know him, but I have never come in contact with him." Zhang Xiao explained. If she did not explain, Yi Xiu Jie would not leave. After pausing for a moment, she continued, "Mu Chen asked me to be His daughter's mother."
Yi Xiu Jie's action of placing the items around suddenly froze, she turned around, and stared straight at Zhang Xiao with her deep black eyes, while she pursed her lips tightly.
"Mother nanny."
Zhang Xiao added.
Yi Xiu Jie moved his lips and asked: "You agreed?"
Zhang Xiao laughed, then extended her hand and picked up an apple from the fruit plate on the table, before putting it into her mouth and biting onto it. Yi Xiu Jie saw that she was casually nibbling on an apple, and his thick eyebrows creased. He scolded her in a low tone, "Xiao Er, wash the apple before eating it."
"I did, I only put it in the fruit plate after I've washed. Mu Ya is very cute, I like her a lot. She always calls me Mama, and looking at her is like looking at me back then. " Zhang Xiao leaned against the back of the sofa. When she mentioned what happened all those years ago, her eyes darkened. Mu Chen gave me 30,000 yuan a month. Seeing that he really doted on her daughter and seeing that Mu Ya was just like how I was back then, I signed a contract with him. "
Yi Xiu Jie returned to his side and sat down, then picked up the fruit knife to snatch the apple she was chewing on. She had already eaten half of the apple, but he still carefully and considerately helped her peel the rest of the apple.
"Xiao Er, you mean you want to go to Mu Family to become a nanny? Uncle will be very sad to know that you are his only daughter. " Yi Xiu Jie was also sad in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface.
He had grown up with this girl. Although they weren't siblings, he had treated her like his own sister. She had treated him from her initial hatred to her slow acceptance, and now that she saw him as her brother ...
Zhang Xiaoliang harrumphed, "What's he sad about? Since your mother came in, I've been a no-brainer... Xiu Jie, my business has nothing to do with him. " She hated her father, hated Yi Xiujie's mother, because their love broke up her parents, and her mother was forced to divorce her father and couldn't take her away. She was no more than five years old when she saw her mother dragging her suitcase out of the Zhang Mansion, under the heavy rain of helpless grief. She wanted to chase her mother, but was stopped by the servants who held her back.
If it was only this, Zhang Xiao would not resent his father for over twenty years. After her mother left the Zhang Family, she flew abroad on a plane. As a result of the plane crash, her mother never came back, and that scene of parting became the pain of her life. She was even more resentful toward her father. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛o𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂
She had moved out of the Zhang Family at the age of eighteen, and did not want to be affected by the Zhang Family's glory any longer. She also did not want others to know that she was Zhang Hao Tian's daughter, so she had been self-reliant up till now. It had been nine years since she had returned to the Zhang Family and she had not seen his father Zhang Hao Tian in person. She did not even want to know anything related to the Zhang Family and did not want to know.
Even when her father had gotten into a car accident a year ago, she had only secretly gone to the hospital to visit. She hadn't deliberately asked who had bumped into her father.
