President, Please Be Careful
122

Unfortunately, that happiness did not last long. The cold gaze that shot him made him shudder. He felt his back would be hollowed out by that knife-like gaze.

Xia Zhetao's smile froze, and he laughed flatly, "Alright."

Zhao Youlin nodded and gave her a polite smile.

Now, Xia Zhetao felt as if his entire back was cut off, and it was so painful that he wanted to die.

'Former Madame President, although I am touched by the kindness you have shown me, I am a man who has not yet obtained a wife! I don't want to die under the jealous gaze of my president, those eyes can kill! Please, let me go!’

Xia Zhetao stopped in front of the cake shop that Zhao Youlin mentioned. Zhao Youlin went to open the door, intending to lower Joy down, but the person behind her spoke once more, "Sit down, Zhetao will buy it."

He was still as quiet as ever, and he still spoke in a tone that did not cause any quarrel.

Zhao Youulin's movements paused for a moment, and he instinctively rejected the offer. “No need. I can buy it myself.”

Mu Tingfeng threw a faint gaze towards Zhao Youlin. He said, "You ... have money?"

“…”

Mu Tingfeng's words regarding the place were painful. He had to admit, Zhao Youlin really had no money right now. He left in a hurry now, and the handbag he had brought for the banquet had been left at Duan Yarong's house.

Right now, he really had no money. Even if he left the car, he would not be able to call a taxi home.

At the moment when Zhao Youlin hesitated, Xia Zhetao interrupted in panic and said, "It's okay, I'll go. Miss Zhao, you are carrying your son, so it will not be convenient for you.”

The atmosphere in the car is really strange. Now, there was a legitimate reason for him to go out and get some fresh air, so how could he possibly miss it?

Ever since Xia Zhetao said that, Zhao Youlin did not insist anymore. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xia."

Zhao Youlin's polite words once again managed to bring trouble to Xia Zhetao. Xia Zhetao laughed flatly, quickly removed his seatbelt, and stormed out as if he was running away. He was worried that if he was a little slower, he would be dismembered by someone who thought that this whole situation was unfair!

As soon as Xia Zhetao left, only two adults and a child were left in the car. The atmosphere instantly became very smooth and complicated.

Mu Tingfeng had always been a person who did not say much. Zhao Youlin also did not want to cause any trouble to herself by talking to her ex-husband who had just cut off all relationships not too long ago.

The car instantly became silent, making Joy squirm a little because she was not used to it. The boy was always a little active and sensitive to emotions. When he felt that the atmosphere in the car had become somewhat complicated, his first reaction was to naturally look for the person closest to him.

"Mr ..." Joy hugged Zhao Youlin's neck like a little koala and called out to her gently.

Zhao Youlin seemed to know that Joy was uncomfortable. A thought popped into his mind, and he drew closer to Joy's ear to whisper something to her.

Joy's eyes twinkled slightly, and she giggled. Then, he drew closer to Zhao Youlin's ear and whispered something to her.

The mother-daughter couple whispered to each other in front of Mu Tingfeng, and at times, she could even hear the boy's pleasant laughter.

This was originally supposed to be a harmonious sight, but in Mu Tingfeng's eyes, it was, for some reason, a sight ruin.

This woman was always smiling at the children, Xia Zhetao, and strangers whom she did not know. He was also gentle to them, so why was he always so cold to her?

Especially now, when she saw the two of them playing and whispering to each other but found that she was unable to join in the conversation, Mu Tingfeng felt an unpleasant emotion in her heart.

One was his ex, and the other was his son, someone who had half of his genes, but he had no place beside him. He ... couldn't join them.

The moment he entered the car, the atmosphere was so gloomy and he almost shuddered.

'What ... What the hell is going on?! I just left for a few minutes, but the president looks even more unhappy than before!’

With her heart pounding in fear, Xia Zhetao returned to the driver's seat and handed the cake in his hands to Zhao Youlin.

Zhao Youlin did not seem to notice the gloomy atmosphere inside the car. He took the cake from Xia Zhetao, took out a spoon, and put it in Joy's mouth.

Joy eagerly ate it. Eyes lit. While chewing, he stared at the cake left in Zhao Youlin's hand. She looked very cute when she asked to be fed.

Zhao Youlin giggled and asked gently, "Does it taste good?"

"Yes." Yeah." Joy nodded like a hamster. With wide eyes, he stared at the cake in Zhao Youlin's hands.

“If it tastes good, what should you say to Mr Xia, Joy?”

Joy's dumbfounded. Then, he remembered something. He turned around and gave Xia Zhetao a sweet smile. "Thank you, Mr. Xia."

Whossss~~~

Xia Zhetao felt an arrow with a love-shaped tip strike his heart when he saw the boy's clean and gentle smile. His heart practically melted in place.

'There's no way my president's son can be this funny. He is completely different from the president! When I saw the president's son, I suddenly had the urge to hurry up and find a wife so I could have children of my own. What should I do?'

Xia Zhetao did not remain agitated for a long time. The cold gaze that had always been behind him moved to his back again, and he shuddered. He said awkwardly, “You don't have to thank me. I'm glad to be able to serve such a cute kid.”

'Oh no ... It's excruciating to have such a petty boss and so prone to jealousy!'

The mother-daughter couple did not notice the underlying storm between the two men in the car. When they heard Xia Zhetao praise Joy for being cute, Zhao Youlin and Joy gave her a friendly smile once again.

The former feels proud and glad that someone praised her child for being cute, and the latter just likes to be praised.

Therefore, Xia Zhetao felt that the gaze on his back was intensifying. This feeling of pain and pleasure made his stomach ache, what should he do?!

Joy's thanks were answered, and she was also praised. So she turned around and looked at Zhao Youlin, looking adorable as she asked for praise.

Zhao Youlin smiled as she patted her head. She generously praised him, “Good son, Joy. Do you still want to eat?"

"Yes!"

Zhao Youlin gave him a few more bites before Joy suddenly grabbed his hand and said with clear eyes, "Mom, you eat too."

Zhao Youlin was stunned. If Joy doesn't say anything, she won't feel hungry. Just now, during the banquet, he had no time to eat. Now, he's a little hungry. Fortunately, the cake Xia Zhetao had bought was quite large, and Joy should not have been able to finish it alone…

"Alright, I'll eat too."

"okay!"

Mother-daughter couples ignore others and feed each other. They completely ignored the two people who had also eaten nothing during the banquet earlier. They also ignored the increasingly complicated gazes on them when someone noticed their interaction.
