Chapter 23 - Support(Part 1)

The driver was also surprised to know that this lady is a mother.

"No. Why?"Hu chenguang replied.

"Then your son? "Xiang Duyi asked with a frown. What does it mean by she is unmarried?

She didn't reply to this question, only to give a sad smile.

Seeing her sad face Xiang Duyi didn't know what to say? It seems it is a sour spot for her. So he didn't continue his question.

"If I say that I slept with an unknown man to conceive my child would you consider me a characterless woman?" She asked suddenly glancing at Xiang Duyi. Her eyes brimming with tears.

Xiang Duyi felt uncomfortable seeing her like this.

"No. A loving and caring mother can't be a characterless woman even if she is engaged in prostitution. So in my eyes, you are a strong lady, who is bringing up your son single-handedly without relying on any man."Xiang Duyi replied seriously glancing straight into her eyes.

His answer magically soothes the pain buried within her heart for many years. Everybody except some treated her as a shameless woman who has slept with a wild man, they called her a slut, whore, and various other names behind her back even they didn't leave her innocent son. Nobody tried to understand her pain, many men cast lewdfull gazes on her knowing her as a single mother and slept with some unknown man. At first, she felt extremely hurt but over time, she accustomed to it, and she didn't care about people's thoughts anymore.

But she didn't know why she cares so much about what this man's thought about her. Listening to his reply she understood that this man in front of her is different from others. So she smiled brightly at him.

Seeing her beautiful smile Xiang duyi becomes dazed for some time, his hands are itching to touch her face but he somehow controlled his growing desires. Unknowingly he also smiled. Her sorrow and happiness affect him greatly. This feeling is new to him.

After 15 minutes the car stopped at the entrance of olive building complex. Seeing that destination has come they glanced at each other.

"I have to go now."Hu Chenguang said with some reluctance. For some reason, she wants to slap her. How can she be fond of this man so quickly?

"Don't you tell me your name before leaving? "Xiang Duyi said in the same reluctant voice.

"Hu chenguang."She answers.

"Nice name.I am Xiang Duyi. Nice to meet you. I hope we will meet again."He extends his hand for a handshake which hu chenguang happily accepted.

"Ok then. Will you be free tomorrow evening? I want to invite you to my home for dinner."Hu changuang asked.

"Hum. I have a meeting tomorrow. After finishing it, I will come to your house. So let's exchange our number for future contact."Xiang Duyi suggested

After that, they exchanged their number readily.

The chauffeur shook his head sitting in the driver's seat seeing that these people absolutely forget his existence. He wants to know who said his boss doesn't know how to talk politely with a girl? See now, even he has a hard time recognizing his boss. Is this the same cold and aloof boss? But he is very happy seeing the change in his boss. He felt that they would be a great couple if she isn't a mother since he doesn't think the Xiang family would accept this relationship. But this isn't his place to interfere.

"Okay then see you tomorrow. I also want to make some good memories before leaving."Xiang Duyi said.

"Leaving? Means? "She asked hurriedly.

"Nothing. It's just that I will leave for the capital in 4 days."Xiang Duyi responded.

"You aren't from city S? "Hu chenguang asked in a sad voice.

"No. But don't worry now that we become friends I will visit here frequently ."Xiang Duyi gives her assurance. He also wants to spend some time with her, he didn't know why but her presence gives him a feeling of peace but he has to go due to some unfinished businesses in the capital.

"Bye. If you face any problems don't forget to call my number. Ok?"He added. Though his voice is gentle, there has some order within it.

"Okay. Goodnight See you tomorrow ."She bid goodbye before heading toward her flat. She surprises to see how quickly they become friends.

Xiang Duyi glancing at the disappearing back of hu changuang when a light cough sounded.

"Sir, should we go now? "The driver asked in a low voice.

Xiang Duyi glanced coldly at his driver for breaking his attention.

"Let's go."His voice reverted to the cold one....

---------

In the hospital, after ending the call Jia li informed others.Only nuan nuan is left now. She dialed nuan nuan's number.

Nuan nuan picked up her phone after some ringing.

"Hello."Nuan nuan's hoarse voice sounded.

"Nuan nuan is everything ok? Are you crying?"Jia li asked hastily hearing her husky voice.

"..My mother is hospitalized at Jiangsu hospital..her condition is very serious..doctor said she probably wouldn't survive this time...I am afraid supervisor Jia.."Saying this nuan nuan started to cry bitterly. Hearing her cry like this, tears also rolled down Jia li's face.

"Don't be afraid Nuan, I am coming there."Jia li said before ending the call.

Bo wen and Lee chao also felt distress hearing the conversation of the call.

"What is happening today? Bad news keep coming."Lee Chao commented sadly.

"I have to go now."Jia li said before ready to leave the room.

But before Jia li left the room, her hand was grabbed by Bo wen.

"It is very late now. Take rest, I will take care of everything ."Bo wen said seriously. Seeing his serious and caring look Jia li's heart skipped a beat.

"Okay."Jia li subconsciously replied.

"Lee take care of Jia."Bo wen said glancing at lee chao.

"Don't worry. But are you sure you can take care of everything on your own?"Lee Chao asked worriedly

"Don't worry. I promised you people that nothing will happen to nuan's mother."He assured them seriously before leaving the room...
