Chapter 1884 - Rain on the Streets

“She’s still so young, yet she’s already smiling so happily. What will happen when she grows up? Moreover, her mother is very young.”

“Yeah, I think I’ve seen her mother somewhere before.”

“Baby’s eyebrows are so beautiful. My heart is about to melt.”

...

Everyone in the economy class was praising Duo Duo’s cuteness, especially Duo Duo’s infectious laughter, which seemed to form a strong magnetic field in this small space. Duo Duo’s laughter infected many people around her.

“The baby is very cute. I really like her.”

Mr Li looked at Duo Duo and exclaimed once again. Looking into Duo Duo’s eyes, he became even happier. He then looked up at Tang Xiaoyu and said, “Why don’t you let her be my god-granddaughter? I can support all of her growth in the future.”

“There’s no need, Mr Li. I think I can afford my daughter’s future growth expenses. Thank you for your kind intentions, but you don’t have to worry about it this time.”

“Alright then.”

Despite being rejected, Mr Li’s eyes did not show any displeasure. Instead, he admired Tang Xiaoyu’s actions. The smile in his eyes deepened. “What’s your name?”

“Tang Xiaoyu.”

Tang Xiaoyu said her name and lowered her head to look after Duo Duo.

“Tang Xiaoyu, your name reminded me of a poem.”

Mr Li raised his head and his eyes were as gentle as the spring sun. “The rain on the street is soft, the color of the grass can be seen from a distance but not seen from near. You, Tang Xiaoyu, this poem happened to be written by a poet from the Tang Dynasty. Your surname is also a popular surname, pretty good.”

Mr Li was pleasantly surprised.

“Mr Li, you’re so knowledgeable. I think Duo Duo will definitely be as talented as you when she grows up.”

“Of course. Duo Duo will follow me in the future. I’m her god-grandfather.”

As Mr. Li spoke, he made Duo Duo laugh. Her laughter was really powerful and managed to make Mr. Li laugh non-stop. He began to like Duo Duo even more.

“Ms Tang, why don’t you make Baby my god-granddaughter? Isn’t that good?”

Mr Li refused to give up. No matter what, he wanted Tang Xiaoyu to make Duoduo his god-granddaughter. As long as Tang Xiaoyu refused to agree, he would make Tang Xiaoyu wait until she agreed on this flight.

“Mr Li, what exactly do you see in my daughter? Why do you insist on naming her your god-granddaughter?”

“What else can I fancy? She’s just a little baby now. I just want to accept her when I see that she likes her. Xiaoyu, sometimes, we can’t view everything in a negative light. I just think that she likes me. You really don’t have to treat me like an enemy.”

“Mr Li, I know your status in Chinatown. How could I treat you as an enemy? It’s just that I’ve encountered something and don’t want to trust anyone. Right now, other than my woman, no one else is more important than my daughter.”

“Looks like this baby is really important.”

Mr. Li looked at her worriedly. “Xiaoyu, what happened to you? I think I might know something about you.”

“Everyone Mr Li knows is a big shot. How can you have an impression of a small fry like me?”

Tang Xiaoyu did not believe it. She had not even started in America yet. How could a famous Mr. Li know her?

“That might not be the case. Everyone around me says that you look familiar. I also think that you look familiar. Were you more voluptuous in the past?”

Mr. Li smiled as he looked at Tang Xiaoyu with a complicated gaze that flashed past.

“Do you know Gu Zhengrong?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Mr Li seemed to have recalled something as he looked at her in surprise.

“Do you really know me?”

It had been a long time since someone mentioned Gu Zhengrong’s name to her. It was so long that she almost forgot about the hurt Gu Zhengrong had left in her heart. Perhaps, the hurt had always existed. Perhaps, it had been there since she chose to fall in love with him.

“You really know Gu Zhengrong? I heard that he is a talent. Everyone says that he is a business genius in the American Chinese streets, comparable to the CEO of the Ji Group. Is that true?”

Tang Xiaoyu raised her head and tightened her grip on Duo Duo. After returning to America, she was no longer the woman who could stay by Gu Zhengrong’s side forever just to get a glimpse of him. At this moment, she seemed to have been reborn.

Rebirth through nirvana.

“What’s wrong? Could this person be someone you know? From the looks of it, the baby’s eyebrows...”

Seeing the shock in Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes, Mr Li lowered his head to look at Duo Duo and said softly, “Everyone says that Gu Zhengrong has a girlfriend who dotes on him a lot. I’m afraid that this baby...”

“Mr Li, if you’ve already guessed it, I’ll admit it. However, my current identity is not Gu Zhengrong’s girlfriend. He doesn’t care about me and has never shown any love for me, so why should I keep him around? Mr Li, you probably can tell why I returned to America, right?”

Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes lit up and a hint of hatred appeared in them.

“Revenge. Revenge that you love him but can’t get him. This is the best way to deal with someone who doesn’t love you. However, I have to tell you that the depth of your hatred means that you still love him deeply. Moreover, you already have such a cute baby, you have to think clearly. It’s really not that easy to deal with someone. He’s still the person you love.”

“So what if it’s someone I loves? In his eyes, I’m probably just a woman who treats him very well. Why would he think about what would happen to me after I leave America?”

Tang Xiaoyu’s heart turned cold at the mention of Gu Zhengrong. She had never thought that the person she loved so deeply would want her to leave so badly. However, her departure this time was too sudden. When they met again, Gu Zhengrong would probably be caught off guard.

“How is it? Since you want to deal with Gu Zhengrong, how can you not need my help? You should know that to deal with a powerful opponent, you need a powerful backer. I can be your backer. If you’re willing, I can even hand over my company to you. Do you think that’s okay?”
