Chapter 157

"I want to help Mommy clean up together." Xiao Lanlan has completely forgotten the unhappiness of not being able to be with her father, and she only thinks about sharing her worries with Mommy, even though there are very limited things she can do.

"Mommy, should we ask someone to help?" Unlike Xiao Lanlan's blind obedience, Xiao Bai's consideration is more practical.

"The uncles and aunts in the teahouse are tired of cleaning up the mess, so why bother them." Xia Xiaomo instinctively refused without guessing his son's intentions.

"I'm not talking about the uncles and aunts of the tea house! What I mean is... that person caused this incident in the first place, and he has the responsibility to help us solve our difficulties." Xiaobai was very speechless about Mommy's slowness, and his tone was slightly Some rush.

"Which person?" Xia Xiaomo, who was dull, hadn't reacted yet.

"It's that... uncle from last night." See, Xiao Lanlan guessed it all.

Xia Xiaomo, who finally had an epiphany, coughed lightly in embarrassment, and patted his son's head, "Doesn't Xiaobai dislike him?"

"Whether you like him or not and whether you should ask him for help are two different things." Xiao Bai replied solemnly.

Xia Xiaomo was a little hesitant. When he left last night, he specially left his business card, saying that the children could come to him at any time for anything, but now it's not that the children have anything to do, so why don't she call him rashly?

"Mum, don't ask him for help if you have something to do, just say that Xiao Lanlan misses him, and he will definitely come." The heartless Xiao Lanlan suggested wisely.

"Uh..." Xia Xiaomo was embarrassed, she couldn't say these words, so why not just ask him for help.

Mommy's face was full of entanglement and hesitation, Xiaobai had no choice but to give up, "It seems that Mommy doesn't like him more than I do, so just pretend I didn't say anything. Let's clean up first, and then wait for Uncle Chu Ran to get rid of the bad guys." Catch them and make them lose money."

Those people are all debt-ridden gamblers, and expecting them to lose money is tantamount to nonsense.Thinking of this, Xia Xiaomo's heart gradually began to waver.

"Okay, I'll try to contact him. After all, those people are making trouble because of the sale of the tea garden. It's not too much to ask him to solve the trouble." Xia Xiaomo finally decided to accept Xiaobai's suggestion.

After dialing that unfamiliar number, she became inexplicably nervous, and she didn't even know what to say in the first sentence.

After beeping four times, the phone was connected, but to Xia Xiaomo's surprise, a female voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hi, Mr. Gu is not available to answer the phone right now, if there is nothing important Please call back later."

"Then... when is it convenient for him?" Xia Xiaomo was a little disappointed, but still asked.

"Mr. Gu is in a meeting. If you have something very important, you can leave a message for me, and I can convey it to you later." The gentle female voice was obviously a little impatient.

Four years of living as a single mother made Xia Xiaomo extremely sensitive, and she didn't have the courage to continue to deal with this impatient voice, "It's nothing important, sorry to bother you."

Oh, it's because she thinks things too simply. He is the president of a big company who is aloof and busy with everything he does every day to make a lot of money, so he has no time to manage her small tea garden.

The phone call lasted less than a minute and ended in a hurry. Mommy looked a little depressed, and Xiaobai and Xiaolanlan also felt that something was wrong, "Mommy, does uncle care about us?" The short legs rushed over and asked worriedly.

"He's busy, so he doesn't have time to answer Mommy's call." Xia Xiaomo didn't hide her disappointment, her tone of voice was as deep as her expression.

"Uncle is really a bad guy, and Xiao Lanlan doesn't like him anymore!" The grass-like Xiao Lanlan immediately rebelled, forgetting all the benefits of kissing her father.

Xia Xiaomo sighed softly, bent down and touched her daughter's little face, "Forget it, I'll take you to Teacher Lin first, and pick you up before dinner."

Neither of the two children expressed their opinion, they stood obediently beside Mommy, holding her hand from left to right.

At the same time, Gu Yanzhe, who was in a high-end office building in the bustling urban area, had just finished an important video conference, and sneezed twice as soon as he left the door of the meeting room. According to superstition, someone might be scolding him behind his back.

"Second young master, there were three phone calls just now, and I have already replied to each of them." Gu Yanzhe's personal assistant, Yan Ni, handed over the phone respectfully.

Gu Yanzhe took it casually, supported his head with one hand and massaged his temples, and skilfully flipped through the call information with the other hand.Soon, a string of unfamiliar numbers appeared on the super-large screen, his heart trembled inexplicably, and he vaguely felt as if he had missed something, "Whose is this strange phone number?"

Yan Ni was nervous for a while, and replied timidly: "It's a lady, she hung up without saying anything..."

Gu Yanzhe interrupted Yan Ni's report eagerly, "Is her voice particularly thin and soft?"

"...Yes." Er Shao's tone suddenly became so anxious and anxious, Yan Ni also became nervous, and her answer became less crisp.

"Why didn't you notify me right away?" Gu Yanzhe stood up suddenly and asked with a low growl.

"The lady said it was nothing important, so I..."

Yan Ni's explanation was only halfway through, but Gu Yanzhe simply rewarded her with one word, "Get lost!"

After trying to calm down, Gu Yanzhe pressed the callback button. The next thing he has to do is to wait quietly, waiting for the soft and soft voice to ring in his ears.

At this time, Xia Xiaomo had already arrived at the door of Teacher Lin's house. Just as she was about to ring the doorbell, the phone in her bag rang suddenly. Looking at her, that look seemed to say, 'Mommy, answer the phone first! '

Xia Xiaomo was stared at by the two little guys and had no choice but to follow them.

What she didn't expect was that the words Gu Yanzhe was displayed on the screen of the mobile phone. For a while, she fell into entanglement again.

The two children didn't know many characters, and it was impossible for them to know Gu Yanzhe's three complicated characters, but they knew very well that this call should be from their father.

Just now, Xiao Lanlan, who said that she no longer liked her father, rebelled again, "Mommy, take it."

"Listen to what he has to say." Xiao Bai also echoed.

Xia Xiaomo's heart tightened suddenly, her hands trembled, and she accidentally pressed the hang up button. By the time she realized it, the call had ended.

"It turns out that uncle didn't ignore Mommy on purpose." Xiao Lanlan, who was confused about the situation, tugged at the corner of Mommy's clothes in a little excitement, and said in a low voice.

Xiaobai stared at his younger sister with infinite contempt, and then tugged at the corner of Mummy's clothes, "Mummy, why did you hang up?"
