Full of Tension

In the middle of the afternoon, facing the deep affection of Li Xiaoxuan, a single hot mom.

To be honest, Zhang Yang was somewhat aroused.

Although he remained calm and didn't show anything, Li Xiaoxuan still caught a glimpse of an inexplicable desire flashing in his eyes.

Young married women are likely to be understanding and perceptive of people's feelings.

Moreover, she's quite good at it.

"Mr. Zhang, I don't need to keep an eye on my shop for the time being. How about... you come to my house for a visit?" she invited again.

Last time Zhang Yang walked her back to her apartment building, Li Xiaoxuan invited him to come up, but he didn't.

But this time...

"Is it convenient?" Zhang Yang asked.

"There's no one else at home, let's go." Li Xiaoxuan smiled, reached out and grabbed Zhang Yang, her eyes conveying a silent invitation.

"Okay, let's go... sit for a while." Zhang Yang nodded.

A moment later, Zhang Yang and Li Xiaoxuan walked to the car together.

Beside the dark Cullinan, passersby were taking photos with their phones. In the distance, several shop owners came out of their shops to watch, and their chatter could be faintly heard.

"The CEO of Star City Plaza drives Cullinan BB, worth over nine million. No wonder he's a big boss."

"I heard the big boss is very young. Hmm, is that the one walking over there? And the one next to her, isn't she the owner of that barbecue restaurant upstairs?"

The group immediately shut up and forced smiles, trying to get acquainted with each other.

Feeling the various gazes around her, Li Xiaoxuan's face flushed, and she lowered her head and got into the car.

Public opinion can be a powerful force; one can only imagine what kind of rumors and gossip will follow.

Zhang Yang didn't seem to care much. He got into the car naturally, glancing at Li Xiaoxuan in the passenger seat who was gently patting her chest.

Are you picking up Tongtong today?

"Yes, but... there's still time." Li Xiaoxuan leaned closer gently. "Lately, my ex-husband always has my aunt pick me up, so I might as well go myself."

"Then I'll go with you later," Zhang Yang said, glancing at the time.

"Oh? Really?" Li Xiaoxuan was instantly overjoyed.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to be a dad." Seeing Li Xiaoxuan's excited expression, Zhang Yang couldn't help but explain, "I just think Tongtong is a really cute kid, and we get along really well."

"How could I dare to have such improper thoughts?" Li Xiaoxuan hugged Zhang Yang, her eyes lowered, and whispered. "I only know that Tongtong likes you very much. Her happiness is my happiness. Later..."

"What's next?" Zhang Yang felt the mature and alluring aura beside him and couldn't suppress his desire.

"I'll unlock a few more for you, Mr. Zhang, later." Li Xiaoxuan bit her lip, her eyes instantly exuding charm.

In the afternoon, Zhang Yang went to Li Xiaoxuan's place.

The house is tastefully decorated, from the high heels in the shoe cabinet to various designer bags, the cosmetics and skincare products piled high on the dressing table, and the wardrobe overflowing with clothes...

She also has a treadmill, a yoga mat, and all the other essentials. With such a focus on body management, it's no wonder she has such a great figure now.

It's clear that even though Li Xiaoxuan is divorced, she still maintains a very high standard of living.

It's not something everyone can afford to raise.

"These were all bought before. After the divorce, I wasn't so extravagant anymore." Li Xiaoxuan put away several bags on the sofa, somewhat embarrassed.

"It's nothing, no need to explain to me." Zhang Yang didn't care about any of that.

He gently put his arm around Li Xiaoxuan's slender waist, which was free of any excess fat, and looked towards the room not far away.

Instantly, Li Xiaoxuan's cheeks flushed red.

··

As the sun set, Zhang Yang leisurely smoked a cigarette afterward and stood by the window gazing at the scenery.

Li Xiaoxuan gently put on a floral print sundress, her long, slender legs clad in high heels, making her look incredibly feminine.

"What are you looking at?" She stepped forward and hugged Zhang Yang's lower back.

"Let's go, shouldn't we go pick up the kids?" Zhang Yang smiled and turned back to look at Li Xiaoxuan, whose face was still flushed. He couldn't help but savor the lingering charm of what had just happened.

I really didn't expect that Li Xiaoxuan was not exaggerating at all.

It unlocked just like that.

"Okay, let's go now, the timing is perfect." Li Xiaoxuan smiled, leaned in and kissed Zhang Yang on the corner of his mouth. "I love you to death, my dear President Zhang."

A moment later, Cullinan left downstairs and headed straight for the kindergarten where Tongtong attended.

This is the time when parents pick up their children at the kindergarten gate.

Traffic was congested at the entrance.

Zhang Yang glanced at the congested road, thought for a moment, and decided to park his car on the side of the road.

"I'll wait here, you go pick it up."

"Okay, wait for me." Li Xiaoxuan smiled and got out of the car first.

In front of the kindergarten.

Ms. Xu, the teacher of Class 5, is handing each child over to their parents.

Tongtong waved goodbye to a little boy.

"Dad, this is my best friend Tongtong." The little boy looked up and introduced Tongtong to a tall, handsome man.

"Oh, hello little friend." The man smiled and bent down to greet Tongtong.

"Hello, Uncle." Tongtong nervously clutched the hem of her skirt, then suddenly looked into the distance and her face lit up with a smile.

"Mother!"

She cheered and ran over.

The man glanced over and suddenly his eyes lit up.

The mother of the child not far away was wearing a floral sundress; her legs were long and white, and she was quite pretty.

Those who have been through it know that this is the best.

"Tongtong's mom isn't with her dad," the little boy suddenly blurted out.

"Hmm? What's wrong with Tongtong's dad?" The man subconsciously bent down and asked his son, "Did they get divorced?"

"It seems so, Tongtong said... she misses her mom, and wants her mom and dad to be together." The little boy organized his thoughts, trying his best to express what he wanted to say.

"So that's how it is." The man watched the two figures, one tall and one short, disappear into the distance, lost in thought. "Come on, Dad will teach you. Just say it like that later."

He lowered his head and pulled his son aside to teach him a few words.

"Really, Dad? I want to go!" The little boy jumped up excitedly immediately after saying something.

Not far away, Li Xiaoxuan held Tongtong's hand, listening to Tongtong tell all sorts of interesting stories.

"There's a kid in our class who... he couldn't wake up today. He cried when we called him and slept until school was over."

"Mom, my current deskmate is named Orange."

Tongtong chattered away, she had so much to say.

"Really? You and Orange are good friends now, aren't you?" Li Xiaoxuan asked gently, bending down to pinch Tongtong's cheek.

"Yes, Orange is my good friend," Tongtong said in her childish voice.

As the mother and daughter were talking, a little boy came running over excitedly from a short distance away.

"It's Orange!" Tongtong looked up at her mother.

"Tongtong, my dad is taking me to the amusement park later, and we're going to eat fruit pizza too!" The little boy Orange Tongtong and jumped around, innocent and carefree.

A man nearby pulled his son aside, smiling as he approached, "So you're Tongtong! Orange always says you're his best friend. Why don't the two kids play together?"

Upon hearing this, Tongtong's eyes immediately lit up.

"Mommy, Mommy, I want to go." She held Li Xiaoxuan's hand, her face full of longing.

"Tongtong, let's go another time. Let's go somewhere else today." Li Xiaoxuan patted Tongtong's head and shook her head with a smile.

"Huh?" Tongtong pouted, looking a little disappointed.

"Sure, it's rare for a child to be interested." The man smiled. "Tongtong's mom, as parents, we can certainly fulfill this small request."

Li Xiaoxuan gave the man in front of her a strange look and politely declined again.

"No need, we really have something to do. Tongtong, say goodbye to your friend."

"Oh." Although Tongtong was a little disappointed that she couldn't go out and play with her best friend, she remained well-behaved. "Orange, see you tomorrow."

Tongtong gently shook her little hand.

Li Xiaoxuan picked up the child, nodded politely to the man, and left.

The man stood there, shaking his head and chuckling, but he wasn't discouraged.

He picked up his son, strode over, and started a casual conversation.

"My Orange is one of the youngest in her class. Your Tongtong must be older than mine, right?"

"More or less," Li Xiaoxuan replied absentmindedly.

"Almost? By the way, have you enrolled your Tongtong in any weekend extracurricular classes? We enrolled our Orange in a painting class on the weekend. It's not a burden for the child; it's purely to help him cultivate his interests." The man continued to try and find topics to talk about.

"No, no, our family isn't considering it for the time being." Li Xiaoxuan wondered what was wrong with Orange's dad; why was he being so talkative?

She quickened her pace, leaving the man behind in just a few steps.

"Hey, Tongtong's mom, be careful, there's a car ahead." The man suddenly stepped forward and blocked Li Xiaoxuan's path. "With a child, you must be extra careful. By the way, how are you getting back? Where's your car?"

"We have someone to pick us up." Li Xiaoxuan didn't reply, but bent down and gently patted Tongtong's head.

"Tongtong, look over there, see who's that?"

Tongtong hadn't recovered from her disappointment when she looked in the direction her mother was pointing. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and a smile bloomed on her face.

"It's Uncle, Uncle!"

She gently pulled her hand away from Li Xiaoxuan's and ran over.

The man subconsciously looked in that direction, and the gentle smile he had been deliberately maintaining on his face instantly froze.

A few steps away, next to a black Shanghai-plated Cullinan, a tall and handsome figure was bending down to pick up Tongtong.

It looks exceptionally harmonious.

Tongtong's mother also walked up with a smile, snuggling up to him, looking alluring and delicate, as if she were blooming only for that man.

"Uncle? What kind of uncle is this?"

Looking at the imposing Cullinan and then at that handsome, tall figure, he suddenly felt like a clown. He quickly lowered his head and tried to walk over.

As luck would have it, the son in her arms struggled slightly, his expression filled with curiosity.

"Tongtong, is this your dad?"

Children don't really recognize people, and besides, Orange really didn't have much of an impression of Tongtong's dad.

Zhang Yang was holding Tongtong, looking at the little girl he hadn't seen for a while. To be honest, the little girl was indeed very lovable and cute.

It would be a lie to say I don't like it.

He would comfort himself, though his principle of not wanting to be a father remained unchanged, it wouldn't hurt to get used to what it's like to be a father beforehand and practice a little.

Then he heard these innocent words from a child.

"Yes, he is my dad." Without thinking, Tongtong hugged Zhang Yang's neck tightly with both little arms and wouldn't let go, looking like a little cotton-padded jacket.

"Tongtong, you..." Li Xiaoxuan was about to correct her.

Zhang Yang felt that Tongtong's arms were tightening around him, as if she was a little nervous.

Such a sensitive child, barely three years old.

"Hey!" He glanced at Li Xiaoxuan, shook his head slightly, and indicated that everything was alright.

Li Xiaoxuan immediately shut her mouth, and for some reason, a hint of joy and tenderness flashed in her eyes.

"Daddy, Daddy!" Tongtong was overjoyed. She wrapped her chubby little arms around Zhang Yang's neck, pointed to the little boy next to her, and excitedly introduced him, "This is my good friend Orange."

"Oh?" Zhang Yang looked over.

The little boy was naturally an innocent and lively boy, but the man beside him, presumably the boy's father, seemed to be avoiding eye contact, as if he was afraid to look at people.

"Y-you, hello." The man beside him seemed to sense Zhang Yang's gaze, put his hands down by his side, and gave an awkward, dry laugh.

"Hello." Zhang Yang nodded, not taking it seriously. "Let's go, Xiaoxuan. We've picked up the child. There are too many people here."

"Okay, let's go." Li Xiaoxuan stepped forward gently, mustered her courage, and hooked her arm around Zhang Yang's arm.

To be honest, they look just like a family of three.

A moment later, Li Xiaoxuan took her child and sat in the back row.

Since Tongtong was in such a good mood, Zhang Yang naturally didn't want to disappoint the little girl, so he turned the car around and drove towards a newly opened family amusement park nearby.

In the evening, on an extremely childish cartoon plate, there were miniature cod sausages and palm-sized fruit pizzas.

Zhang Yang couldn't eat much, but Tongtong ate with great enthusiasm and seemed very happy.

"Mr. Zhang, you've worked hard." Li Xiaoxuan said, a little embarrassed, while feeding her child.

"What's so hard about playing with kids?" Zhang Yang casually asked, then added after a moment's thought, "Oh, right, don't get me wrong, just think of it as me gaining experience in raising kids in advance."

"Oh right, it seems you're still not married." Li Xiaoxuan touched her face, a strange sense of melancholy creeping over her. "I'm not much older than you, and I'm divorced."

Zhang Yang looked at Li Xiaoxuan, who was wearing a floral print sundress, her shoulders were fair, and her skin was fair with a rosy glow.

This captivating beauty, to put it bluntly, exudes sexual allure.

"That's exactly the feeling I wanted. You really don't know how amazing you are, do you?" Of course, Zhang Yang kept these words to himself and didn't say them aloud.

After all, while married women may be wonderful and exciting, it's enough for one to experience it personally; there's no need to constantly talk about it.

Messages from my parents kept popping up on my phone and at my side.

Zhang Yang glanced at the document and knew that his parents must have realized what was going on and were preparing to have a proper discussion and questioning with him when he got back.
