Perhaps, God is destined to give her an unsatisfactory but peaceful and stable life!

Just as he was thinking blankly, he suddenly heard footsteps outside. When he looked back, it was Brandt walking out holding Xiao Mo.

Both of them were smiling and full of energy.

Xiao Xiaoru hurriedly stood up with a smile, "You two just finished taking a shower, aren't you planning to do some strenuous exercise again?"

Brandt smiled and said: "Xiao Mo wants to eat pasta. I found that I ran out of ingredients at home, so I planned to take him to the supermarket. Do you want to come with me?"

Xiao Xiaoru looked at her casual clothes, smiled and shook her head, "You go ahead! I'm too lazy to change clothes."

Brent didn't force himself, gave him a meaningful look, hugged Xiao Mo and got into the car, and drove the car quickly out of her sight.

Xiao Xiaoru thought about Xiao Mo's happy smile just now, and couldn't help but sigh lowly, thinking that's it, let everything settle!

When Brandt and Xiao Mo came back, they not only brought back a lot of food, but also a bouquet of red roses.

Xiao Mo helped get out of the car, took Brandt's hand, walked to Xiao Xiaoru, and knelt down on one knee to her.

Xiao Mo handed the flowers forward, and Brandt had an unknown platinum diamond ring in his hand, which was placed under her nose.

Xiao Mo said crisply: "Mommy, I want Uncle Brent to be my father!"

Brandt said affectionately: "Marry me as your wife! I will love you and Xiao Mo forever and make you happy and safe forever!"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Xiaoru felt dumbfounded. She took the flowers from Xiao Mo's hand, then extended her hand to Brandt, smiling with complicated emotions, "I promise you."

"Acridine! That's great! I have a father! I have a father!" Xiao Mo happily threw himself into Brandt's arms.

Brandt excitedly put on the diamond ring for Xiao Xiaoru, then lifted Xiao Mo up and kept spinning him around.

Looking at the pair of young and old men in the sun, their bodies covered with a layer of golden light, Xiao Xiaoru had mixed feelings, with tears in her eyes, she kept saying to herself: "That's it! That's it! That's good!"

"

After lunch, Xiao Mo had dozed off early because he had played all morning. As soon as he put down the bowl and washed his face, he climbed upstairs and went to his room to sleep.

Brandt looked at the time and said reluctantly: "The time is up, it's time for me to leave. Don't worry, I will finish the work at hand as soon as possible, and then come back to be with you as soon as possible."

Xiao Xiaoru nodded gently, "I'll take you to the car."

The two walked out of the house one after another. Brent stopped beside the car, suddenly turned around and stretched out his hand to hug her into his arms. At the same time, he quickly kissed her face like a dragonfly and whispered.

: "Wait for me to come back!"

Then he turned around, opened the door and got into the car, waved to her, and drove away slowly.

Xiao Xiaoru froze in place for a long time. The discomfort from Brandt holding her and kissing her just now still made her a little sad.

She hated how she felt.

She did not let herself wallow in that sadness. She thought optimistically that one day she would get used to being close to Brandt.

Love cannot last a lifetime, and people who fall in love again will turn into family love after getting married.

She and Brandt just skipped a step. In fact, this was better, at least they didn't torture each other.

Such a marriage might be stable and last a lifetime.

Xiao Xiaoru comforted herself like this, turned around and walked slowly into the house.

Because the future has been decided and there is nothing to look forward to, Xiao Xiaoru's days will be peaceful and boring.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the weather has become extremely hot.

On this day, Xiao Xiaoru drove Xiao Mo to the kindergarten. On the way back, he stopped by the supermarket. When he got home, he was already sweating profusely.

Just after taking a shower, she heard a rapid ringing at the door. She hurried downstairs and opened the door, only to see a middle-aged man and woman with serious expressions.

"Who are you? I don't seem to know you." Xiao Xiaoru asked warily.

"We are from the CIA." The man and woman showed their ID cards to her.

Xiao Xiaoru had been in the police force briefly, so she naturally recognized the ID. She frowned uneasily, "I don't understand why you are looking for me."

The man with the deep "Sichuan" mark between his eyebrows said politely: "We are here this time at the request of Brandt."

"Brent?" Xiao Xiaoru was surprised, "Why doesn't he come by himself?"

The woman sighed, "He can't come. During this operation, his undercover identity was revealed. When we arrived, he was seriously injured and died due to ineffective rescue efforts."

"What?!" Xiao Xiaoru was shocked and couldn't believe her ears.

"He asked us to bring this. He said you would need it." The woman handed over a document bag.

Xiao Xiaoru took it blankly, but her brain was confused for a moment, and she didn't know how to open it and see what was inside.

Seeing her devastated look, the man couldn't help but worry, "Are you okay?"

Xiao Xiaoru came to her senses, waved her hand, and said with a forced smile: "It's okay. I'm fine. You guys... do you want to come in and have some tea?"

"No. We have other things to be busy with. If you are fine, we will leave. Take care!" The man politely refused.

The woman said in a low voice: "My condolences. Goodbye."

"Goodbye." Xiao Xiaoru muttered, waving to them mechanically.

It wasn't until their backs were completely invisible that he turned around and sat down on the sofa in a daze.

Over the years, she has gotten used to Brent's care, used to him appearing from time to time, used to seeing him and Xiao Mo playing crazy together, and she is already ready to accept him as her husband and Xiao Mo's father.

I was mentally prepared, but such a lively and warm person was gone right away!

He just disappeared from their lives, without even having time to say goodbye...

From then on, Xiao Mo would never smile happily like that again.

From then on, he was no longer there to help them through various difficulties.

She will fight alone again...

Life is always so cruel, but fortunately, she has long been used to it.

Xiao Xiaoru raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face. She opened the document bag and saw that there was only a bank safe key inside.

He must have left something for her in there.

Perhaps there was a letter filled with many things that had not been said to her?

There was always too little time for them to sit down and talk properly.

Even if they do, they usually just sit in relative silence.

They are all people with stories, and such people are always too silent.

Xiao Xiaoru decided to go and have a look.

She cheered up and drove to the bank. Under the guidance of the staff, she entered the secret room. When she opened the safe, she saw dozens of wads of cash, several gold cards, a gun, and a letter written inside.

A letter to her and a document bag.

When I opened the document bag, I saw five house deeds from different cities in different countries.

Seeing all this, Xiao Xiaoru completely believed the rumor she had heard from Bill about Brandt being a rich man.

She opened the letter again, but found that there was not a lot of words to say to her, and there were no gorgeous words. However, Liao Liao's few words made her burst into tears.

He said that he loved them and that everything he had would be left to them. At the same time, in order to prevent Hua Boyi from tracking them, he purchased properties in different places for them to avoid!

He actually thought of the day he might leave, so he planned the way they would take in the future.

He didn't say much, but he paved the way for them, not only giving them a prosperous life, but also giving them no worries!

Brent, it seems that she will be in debt to him for the rest of her life...

Brandt's departure made Xiao Xiaoru very sad, but life went on, but it was even lonelier than before.

In order to make Xiao Mo less lonely and to make her family appear more normal, she found a job as a secretary in a company in a small town, so she hired a maid named Jesse for Xiao Mo.

Just in case she has something to do, she can play with Xiao Mo.

On this day, the company held a special celebration dinner to celebrate the 30th anniversary of its establishment. Xiao Xiaoru had no choice but to attend, but because she was worried about Xiao Mo, she still found an excuse and hurried home in the middle of the night.

Unexpectedly, when she opened the door, she saw Jesse with messy hair and tears streaming down her face. She was tied to a chair. At her feet, the German shepherd she had bought since Xiao Mo was born was lying on the ground covered in blood.

, he screamed lowly when he saw her, struggling to stand up, but in the end he lay down dying.

Xiao Xiaoru was startled and immediately searched upstairs and downstairs, and sure enough, she found that Xiao Mo was missing!

Xiao Xiaoru was so distraught that she immediately took out her cell phone to dig up long-lost memories in the depths of her mind, and dialed a number that she never wanted to remember in her life.

The call got through quickly, but the other party was as silent as gold.

Xiao Xiaoru shouted angrily: "Hua Boyi! How dare you..."

Before he finished speaking, the other party had already hung up the phone with a bang.

Xiao Xiaoru gritted her teeth and called again, but her phone had been turned off.

Xiao Xiaoru was angry and anxious, and her mind was in a mess, but she knew that it was absolutely useless to be so angry like this now. She had to calm down to make the right decision.

So, she took a few deep breaths to let her mood calm down, and then immediately walked up to Jesse and untied the rope for her, and asked, "What happened?"
