Chapter 683
Senior, I didn't want to come see you, but the two kids wanted to meet their heartless dad. Liu Qingqing held Chen Siyang in one hand and pushed the stroller carrying Chen Shengli with the other. Facing Chen Yang who came out to greet her, her attitude was unusually cold.
Chen Yang took Chen Siyang and held him in his arms, affectionately saying, "Siyang, call me Dad."
Chen Siyang shook his head, his big eyes fixed on Chen Yang without blinking.
Chen Yang hadn't seen the children for a long time, and he felt deeply guilty.
As the father of three children, the time he'd spent with them these past years could be counted on his fingers.
However, he actually didn't know how to get along with children.
In his previous life he also had children, but he spent all his time earning money to support the family; the children's lives and education were handled by Zhang Meili.
In this life, the three children still live with their mother, and he only pays their living expenses.
How to get along with the children is really a big problem!
Chen Yang brought Liu Qingqing and the two children to the villa, and had the maid take out the imported candies purchased for the New Year.
He let Chen Siyang go get some candy to eat, but the latter clung tightly to him, refusing to let go, afraid that if he loosened his grip, Chen Yang would disappear,
Chen Yang, helpless, could only free one hand to peel candy for her.
While the children were eating candy, Chen Yang asked Liu Qingqing, "Are you spending New Year in Xingcheng this year?"
Liu Qingqing nodded and said, "I've already spent two New Years in Hong Kong; not going home this year would be hard to justify."
Chen Yang felt a little embarrassed. Liu Qingqing had spent three lonely years in Hong Kong because of him. Besides money, he couldn't give her any promises.
"Qingqing, you're not young either; it's time you thought about your lifelong affair."
Liu Qingqing looked at Chen Yang resentfully and said, "How should I consider it? Let your kids call someone else Dad?"
Chen Yang gave a wry smile and said, "The kids can be brought along."
Liu Qingqing glared at Chen Yang and said, "Bring them? You can take care of kids?"
Chen Yang said, "I can leave the kids with my aunt to look after."
Upon hearing that, Liu Qingqing grew even angrier. "Chen Yang, did your aunt owe you in a past life? Raising you isn't enough; now she has to babysit your kids too?"
Chen Yang immediately fell silent. In fact, he knew Chen Chunmei had secretly gone to Hong Kong to see the children, and after returning she kept telling Zhao Donghai and Xiao Qian that she wanted to bring the kids back.
But Liu Qingqing's attitude clearly showed she was reluctant to part with the children; continuing the conversation would be pointless.
At that moment, Liu Qingqing's phone suddenly rang. It was her grandmother calling, urging her to go back and rest early.
Seeing how late it was, Chen Yang told her, "Xingcheng's night traffic is terrible; just stay here tonight." He then had the maid prepare a guest room for Liu Qingqing.
Liu Qingqing didn't answer right away; instead she carefully asked Chen Yang, "If we stay here, will it affect your relationship with that woman?"
Chen Yang knew she was asking about Chu Ning; he shook his head and said, "We've broken up. There's no lady of the house now, so you can stay without worry!"
Upon hearing that, a flicker of joy appeared in Liu Qingqing's eyes, but she said with schadenfreude, "You're so promiscuous; it's only right that she left you."
Chen Yang ignored her and said to Chen Siyang, "Siyang, how about sleeping with Dad tonight?"
Chen Siyang's little head wobbled like a rattle drum. He timidly said, "I… I want to sleep with Mom."
Seeing the child take to her, Liu Qingqing proudly took Chen Siyang back into her arms.
Chen Yang sighed gloomily; it seemed he would need to spend more time with the kids, otherwise he'd truly become a lonely bachelor.
He picked up the baby son Chen Shengjun from the stroller and, in a consultative tone, said to Liu Qingqing, "Qingqing, how about you sleep in my room tonight?"
Liu Qingqing ignored Chen Yang, but after going upstairs she still carried the child into his bedroom.
She carefully surveyed everything in the bedroom, and only after confirming there was no trace of Chu Ning did she fully relax.
Before coming, her family had explicitly reminded her not to provoke that Chu family woman.
She hadn't expected that woman to have left.
However, she soon felt down again, because even though that woman was gone, she still wasn't Chen Yang's first choice.
"Senior, whose house are you going to for New Year?"
"At my own home. What's up?"
"It's rare that I come back; I want to get together with those old sisters. Can I leave the kids with you for a few days?"
"Sure, go have fun!"
Chen Yang doesn't plan to attend any social engagements this Spring Festival; it's perfect for him to properly spend time with the three children and fulfill his fatherly duties.
That night, while the children were asleep, Chen Yang secretly felt Liu Qingqing's chest and found it was still an A cup.
It seems the two children can grow up healthy, thanks largely to the formula.
The next morning, Liu Qingqing instructed Chen Siyang to definitely obey Chen Yang, then left reluctantly.
After she left, Chen Yang immediately called Chen Chunmei over.
Don't look at how readily he agreed in front of Liu Qingqing; when it actually came to being alone with the two kids, he had zero confidence.
"Chen Yang, why not send the kids to my place? Here, if Chu Ning comes back it'll be awkward to speak." Seeing the two kids truly happy, Chen Chunmei immediately asked to take them home.
At this point Chen Yang didn't want to hide it from her either, and frankly said, "Aunt, Chu Ning won't be coming back; we've already broken up."
Chen Chunmei was stunned for a moment, not expecting her nephew's love life to be so rocky. "Chen Yang, is it the child's problem affecting your relationship? If so, I can have your uncle and I take care of the child."
Chen Yang shook his head and said: "Aunt, it has nothing to do with the child. It's simply that our personalities don't match."
Chen Chunmei punched Chen Yang hard, dissatisfiedly saying: "When two people get along, the most important thing is mutual tolerance. If you just give in to her a little more, wouldn't the problem be solved?"
Chen Yang didn't know how to explain to her, so he could only respond with silence.
Seeing Chen Yang silent, Chunmei asked again: "Is there really no room for reconciliation between you two?"
Chen Yang nodded firmly. The news of Chu Ning's engagement to that Shanghai official's son had already spread throughout Modu's circles. Unless something unexpected happens, there is no hope of salvaging this relationship.
Chen Chunmei sighed heavily. After a while, she said to Chen Yang: "Since you don't get along with the Chu family's daughter, why not choose a girl from the Liu family? Qingqing has an easygoing personality and is sincere in her dealings. Having her as your daughter-in-law would be marrying up for our Chen family."
"Aunt, I don't want to think about love right now. Please don't worry about me." Chen Yang didn't want to continue Chunmei's topic. Liu Qingqing is fine in every way, except her chest is too flat. Marriage is a lifelong matter; for future happiness, he still wants to find someone with a big chest.
