Chapter 019

It was already evening when Tang Feng returned to the villa with Lin Yaoyao who had been playing all day.

He thought Lin Mengjia had returned, but the old butler was the only one in the villa.

"Miss is busy with work these days and often comes back late. Mr. Tang and Miss will have dinner first, so you don't have to wait for Miss." The old butler had already prepared a sumptuous dinner and said to Tang Feng.

When Tang Feng saw a table full of delicacies, he started to whet his appetite, but when he heard the old housekeeper's words, he frowned slightly: "She often works late?"

"Yes, since the establishment of the company, Miss has always been so busy," the old housekeeper shook his head helplessly, "Miss is a girl, and she takes care of the children alone. It is not easy to start this business."

Tang Feng was a little distressed. He was supposed to protect Lin Mengjia from the wind and rain, but when she needed him most, he couldn't be by her side. It's no wonder that she would be angry with him.

"Let Yaoyao eat first, I'll wait for Miss Jia - Miss Lin to come back and eat together."

Because of playing for a day, Lin Yaoyao ate dinner, washed up briefly, then climbed into bed by herself and let Tang Feng tell herself a story. Before Tang Feng could finish a story, she fell asleep.

When she fell asleep, there was still a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth.

Seeing the little girl like this, Tang Feng couldn't help but kissed her gently on the forehead.

The moment his lips touched her forehead, the little girl suddenly stretched out her hand, wrapped her arms around his neck, and called out in a low voice: "Father."

Tang Feng's whole body froze, as if he had been hit by a body-fixing technique, and he stayed where he was.

The little girl didn't make any other movements, turned over and continued to sleep, chuckling from time to time, the call just now was just a dream.

But because of a dream, Tang Feng maintained this posture. It took five minutes before he slowly straightened up, looked at the little girl's cute little face under the bright white moonlight through the curtains, and murmured He murmured: "Dad is here, here, one day, you will face me and say these two words."

It was already late at night when Lin Mengjia and Shangguan came back, Tang Feng was still in the little girl's room, sitting by the bed and watching her sound asleep, when he heard the noise, he walked out the door.

Lin Mengjia could not conceal the exhaustion and burnout. It seemed that she was not only physically tired, but also mentally weak. Frowning, her whole body seemed to be very low in pressure, in a bad mood, with "" written all over her face. I'm in a bad mood, don't mess with me."

Shangguan silently followed behind her like a shadow.

"Miss is back," the old butler came out to greet her. "The food is already cold. Let me heat it up later."

It's rare for him to stay up all night waiting until now at his age.

"Uncle Zhang, don't worry about it. Go and rest. We've already had a working meal." Lin Mengjia forced a smile at the old housekeeper.

The old butler looked at Lin Mengjia with worried eyes, sighed, and went back to his room without saying anything, obviously he was used to this kind of situation.

Lin Mengjia walked to the door of the children's room, opened the door and looked inside.

Tang Feng said to her: "Yaoyao has fallen asleep, she had a great time today."

Seeing the little girl lying on the bed, Lin Mengjia showed a faint smile on his tired face. It was different from the polite forced smile to Butler Zhang just now, but a smile from the heart.

She walked into the room, went to the little girl's bed, bent down and gently stroked her hair, and said softly: "I'm sorry, Yaoyao, mom came back late again, and didn't tell you a story, mom will make it up tomorrow you."

After speaking, Lin Mengjia stared at the bedside for a few more minutes before stepping out lightly and closing the door.

During the whole process, Tang Feng stayed by Lin Mengjia's side, but as if she didn't see him, she went out of the room and walked straight towards the stairs.

There was no one in the hall, and Shangguan had already returned to his room.

Tang Feng took a step forward, caught up with Lin Mengjia, and whispered, "Jiajia, what happened?"

Lin Mengjia stopped in her tracks, stared at Tang Feng for a few seconds, and then said slowly, "Don't forget the three chapters of our agreement. The absence of other people doesn't mean you can call me Jiajia."

Tang Feng smiled helplessly: "Okay, Miss Lin, you look very bad, did you encounter any embarrassing things?"

Lin Mengjia didn't answer, turned around and walked upstairs.

Tang Feng was annoyed and amused by her appearance, so he took another step after her and said, "Tell me, maybe I can help you think of a way."

"It's useless to say it, you can't help me." Lin Mengjia said very directly, but in her tone, there was no contempt for Tang Feng's ability, but a sense of helplessness and bitterness from the heart.

This matter has probably come to a dead end. I am afraid that no one can help her, and she is powerless. She does not have any mood and energy to tell others. At this moment, she just wants to take a good rest.

After walking two more steps upstairs, Lin Mengjia stopped, turned to Tang Feng and asked, "Did you go to the cemetery?"

Tang Feng didn't tell anyone about going to the cemetery, and it was only over an hour since he left, but Lin Mengjia easily guessed it.

The tacit understanding between the two still exists.

Tang Feng said "Mmm". Seeing that Lin Mengjia didn't want to answer, he knew that it would be useless to ask further, so he stopped asking, and only whispered to her, "Thank you."

This sentence of thanks came without thinking, but Lin Mengjia knew that he was burying his mother for himself, and went to worship from time to time. She stopped looking at Tang Feng, and continued to walk upstairs, and said softly: "It's me. What should be done is not for you, but for my aunt, she treats me like my own daughter, and I treat her like my own mother."

Her voice became softer and softer, and when she finished speaking, she was already submerged in the darkness on the second floor.

Watching her disappear, Tang Feng had a complex expression in his eyes.

When Tang Feng returned to his room, he didn't go to sleep, but sat cross-legged on the bed, and led the airflow in his dantian to flow through his whole body, so that the energy in the meridians could be integrated.

However, he didn't stay up for meditating, but he was waiting for someone. He believed that this person would definitely come to him tonight.

As expected, half an hour later, a familiar aura appeared at the door.

That person seemed to be hesitating, standing at the door hesitant to knock on the door, Tang Feng spread his voice, only let that person hear: "The door is not locked, come in."

The door was pushed open silently, and a slim figure appeared under the moonlight.
