Mu Lin looked at the red sticker on the table with golden edges and started to have a headache.
Since Ji Xiaohan and Tang Youyou were getting engaged, of course, she was happy and happy for their success. It was very enviable for them to have the courage to marry, to have the courage to use marriage to delay the sweetness of love. At the very least, she couldn’t do it.
Mu Lin stretched out her hand and touched her abdomen. There was no sign of pregnancy. Other than the vomiting that accompanied her, she felt very normal.
"How a
oying!" Mu Lin propped up her hair in front of her forehead. She was so agitated that she didn’t even have the mood to work anymore. She felt that this was the worst moment of her life.
"So the pleasure will come at a price. I should be more careful." Mu Lin grew up in the West when she was young, so in her opinion, when men and women were together and something happened to them, it was not a big deal. On the contrary, ever since she was together with Luo Hening, she felt like her life was complete.
His phone suddenly rang. Mu Lin looked at it and immediately covered her ears.
It was Luo Hening. She didn’t want to answer his call, at least not now.
She was afraid that he would start talking about getting married and having children, and she didn’t want to talk about it with him. She was afraid.
She would rather offend him than talk about such a topic.
Is she sick? Not light?
When Mu Lin covered her ears and pretended not to hear the phone ringing, the office door was suddenly pushed open by a big hand. Luo Hening’s handsome figure was standing outside the door, and when he saw Mu Lin, he realized that Mu Lin was covering her ears.
Mu Lin covered her ears. Naturally, she did not hear the door being opened. Moreover, she had her eyes closed tight, as if she wanted to hide in her own world.
When Luo Hening walked in front of her with heavy steps, Mu Lin felt that someone was coming over. She slowly let go of his hand and raised her head to meet a pair of deeply wounded eyes.
"Ugh ??" Why are you here? " Mu Lin’s mind buzzed and her entire body went blank.
When he opened his mouth to ask, he realized that he had just asked a useless question.
Her face, which rarely blushed, had an u
atural blush.
"Are you okay?" Luo Hening’s voice was low and filled with concern.
Mu Lin’s long hair was tousled to the point that it was a mess. She spread her hands and shrugged. Only then did she chuckle. "Do I look good right now?"
"Do you not like children that much?" Luo Hening placed his hands on her desk slowly and leaned over slightly. He stared at her expression and asked.
Mu Lin bit her lips, thought about it carefully, and replied, "She shouldn’t be too bad, at least, I like my niece very much. I think she’s as cute as an angel."
"Then why don’t you ask for an angel yourself?" Hearing her words, Luo Hening somehow felt that it was very possible to convince her.
Mu Lin raised her head and looked at him. She mocked herself, "You have never experienced my childhood. You don’t know what kind of shadow lies in my heart. I’m afraid of having children, not because I don’t like them, but because I’m afraid."
"What exactly did you experience as a child? I never asked you. Can you tell me now? " Luo Hening changed his posture and sat directly on her desk. His voice was calm and gentle, making people unable to guard against him.
Mu Lin lowered her head and closed her eyes for a moment. When she opened them, they were filled with a sense of loss, "When I was very young, my mother threw me out of the country to live by myself, I wasn’t as lucky as my brother, because he was a son, and I was a daughter, so she told me directly that she was going to leave me alone abroad to live with my grandmother and grandfather, that she was going to bring my brother back to live with my father. I didn’t know what independence was then, so I ran after my parents’ car for a long time, I cried, and they came back to pick me up, but they still didn’t leave."
Luo Hening heard her say these words slowly and his heart tightened. It was as if a clear picture gradually appeared in his mind: a little girl chasing a car. Even though he knew he couldn’t catch up, he still wasn’t willing to give up.
"I hated my parents bitterly for a while, but after thinking about it, if it wasn’t for their foster education, I wouldn’t have become an independent woman like today. They had wronged me and achieved me!"
"Did you have a bad time at your grandparents’ house? Are you often bullied? " Luo Hening asked softly, very concerned about her.
My grandparents belonged to the royal family, and you know that there are a lot of rules in the royal family. I often break them, so I often get scolded and punished, but I still break them every day, and those cousins of mine, they are not like me, they have their parents watching over them, they are very well-ma
ered and well-ma
ered, they never take the initiative to bully the guests, but I will be beaten a lot, and my grandparents are often angered by me, and are also not allowed to take me on important occasions.
Luo Hening felt as if his heart was disturbed and was in extreme pain.
He suddenly understood why Mu Lin was so afraid of marriage and children. Was she afraid that her children would repeat her childhood? Or perhaps, what she was afraid of was the shadows that had happened to her in the past.
"Mu Lin, if only I could get to know you earlier. I’ll definitely accompany you!" Luo Hening walked to her side, reached out his hand and gently pulled her into his embrace, hugging her tightly.
Mu Lin was a very strong woman. She had never cried since she was young, but at this moment, inexplicably, she felt that she needed protection, weakness, and comfort.
"Yeah, why didn’t you come find me earlier?" Mu Lin whispered with a smile, but her voice was choked with sobs.
