When Jiang Luo saw that the caller ID was Situ Minghua, she paused her hand and couldn't help but put down the toy, wanting to answer the phone.

"Mummy, don't you want me anymore?" Gu Zhi saw her hesitation and said suddenly, for fear that Jiang Luo would abandon him because of this.

Jiang Luo put down the phone and quickly hugged Gu Zhi into his arms, comforting him softly: "Why don't you want Ah Zhi, Ah Zhi is very important to me."

Gu Zhi raised his small face in doubt, and looked up at Jiang Luo. Originally, Jiang Luo and Gu Qingrang had a bad relationship, and they had quarreled just now.

"Don't think about it." Jiang Luo said, rubbing his soft little face.

"Really?" Gu Zhi asked worriedly, he held Jiang Luo's hand tightly, revealing deep anxiety.

Jiang Luo patiently picked up the toys in the box and coaxed: "Of course."

With an extremely positive tone, she gradually made Gu Zhi put down his guard, so that his expression would not be so serious.

"Mommy, I want to play with this." Gu Zhi's attention was diverted, and he enjoyed the time alone with Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo stared at the phone intentionally or not, Gu Zhi's mood was stable, she hesitated to call Situ Minghua back.

"Does Mommy still want to call?" Gu Zhi felt that Jiang Luo was a little absent-minded, so he couldn't help observing secretly, he asked curiously.

Jiang Luo nodded clearly. Gu Qingrang misunderstood the two of them. She should stay away from Situ Minghua, but she was grounded again. This phone call might be her last hope.

Gu Zhi frowned in confusion, and finally said calmly: "I can wait for Mommy for a while."

He expressed caringly that he didn't mind any of Jiang Luo's choices, and he was not as sensitive as before.

Jiang Luo put the toy in his hand in relief, and after hesitating again and again, he picked up his phone and walked outside.

"Hello?" She called back quickly, and Situ Minghua's voice suddenly came from her ear.

"Did Gu Qingrang make things difficult for you?" The other party asked with concern.

It made Jiang Luo feel warm in her heart in vain. She put her hands on the escalator and looked at the door blankly: "No, thank you for your concern."

Suddenly there was one more person who cared, and Jiang Luo was somewhat unaccustomed to it.

"It won't be grounded again, right? He is a dignified president, and he restricts his personal freedom every three days." Situ Minghua joked, with regret in his tone.

When Jiang Luo met Gu Qingrang, he was able to gain exposure that ordinary people did not have, but the price was no freedom.

Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and Situ Minghua feels sorry for Jiang Luo who bears silently.

But Jiang Luo opened his eyes wide in surprise, and then quickly recovered his calm expression.

"Yes, your guess is very accurate." She admitted that whenever her career started, Gu Qingrang would always come forward to suppress it.

She is like a canary, with only a singing voice, but she is trapped in a cage all day long.

"It's not difficult to guess, I see Gu Qingrang's temper is grumpy, and I'm worried that you will be affected." Situ Minghua expressed the purpose of calling, and this concern made Jiang Luo hold on to the railing tightly.

Jiang Luo plucked up his courage and offered to ask, "Can you help me?"

It was the first time she asked for help, and her palms were densely covered with sweat. She held her breath, waiting for the answer expectantly and in a panic.

She doesn't know many people, and the only one who can help her right now is Situ Minghua.

"Yes." Situ Minghua affirmed, Jiang Luo was relieved by his straightforwardness, she couldn't restrain her inner happiness, and thanked her repeatedly before hanging up the phone.

With Jiang Luo's own strength, it is difficult to achieve something in the scope of the Gu family, and it may be much easier to get help from others.

She was leaning on the railing, and she was in a much better mood after being imprisoned and depressed.

Jiang Luo sneaked in, when suddenly a soft voice came from behind: "Mommy, have you forgotten Ah Zhi?"

Gu Zhi waited left and right, but still did not see Jiang Luo, so he could only run out to check the situation, holding Jiang Luo in his arms, afraid that she would leave without saying goodbye.

Jiang Luo picked him up and rubbed his face, as if he had returned to Gu Zhi's childhood, and he was inexplicably relieved.

"What would Ah Zhi want to eat? I'll cook." Jiang Luo hadn't cooked for a long time, and when Gu Zhi heard it, various foods flashed in his mind.

"I'll go help Mommy." He was about to drag Jiang Luo to the kitchen as he said that, Jiang Luo followed behind him silently with a faint smile.

Gu Zhi has always shown that he is a man and can bear the burden together.

"Mommy, I want to do it too." Gu Zhi said seriously, his eyes full of expectation.

Jiang Luo took out the vegetable basket, pointed to a small stool beside him and said, "Pick off all the leaves."

As she said, she turned her head and was busy. She arranged Gu Zhi to be far away, so that she could avoid hidden dangers in the kitchen.

The well-behaved and sensible Gu Zhi, once he gets hurt, Jiang Luo will blame himself and feel distressed.

"Mommy, is it like this?" Gu Zhi took out some samples and asked, Jiang Luo nodded in agreement.

The two of them worked together, and the speed of cooking was greatly improved. In a short while, Jiang Luo prepared three dishes and one soup.

Simple ingredients, because Gu Zhi also has a hand, he eats them in a different way.

"I like the dishes made by Mommy, they are delicious." Gu Zhi said very flatteringly, and kept praising.

Jiang Luo was in a happy mood, and she thoughtfully brought food for Gu Zhi.

"It's a pity that Dad didn't eat it." Gu Zhi said lightly with puffed cheeks.

When Gu Qingrang was mentioned, Jiang Luo paused, she put down her chopsticks and served Gu Zhi with soup as if nothing had happened.

"Mummy will sleep with me later, okay?" Gu Zhi didn't realize that Jiang Luo finally had time to accompany him, so he couldn't help begging.

Jiang Luo could see that the longing in Gu Zhi's eyes was just a child longing for affection.

"Okay." She readily agreed, taking care of the person in front of her to eat.

Gu Zhi could not close his mouth with joy the whole time, he pestered Jiang Luo and told many things that he thought were interesting, Jiang Luo listened quietly.

There is an indescribable tacit understanding in the way the two get along.

Even at night, when Jiang Luo hummed a lullaby and sang, Gu Zhi tightly hugged Jiang Luo's arm.

It seemed that she was afraid that she would run away in the middle of the night, and Gu Zhi obviously didn't feel safe.

Looking at his sleeping face, Jiang Luo felt that the world was peaceful, and Jiang Luo tried her best to give Gu Zhi all the love.

But he was still cautious, thinking again and again that Jiang Luo would abandon him.

Gu Zhi in his sleep seemed unsteady, he twisted his body, looking a little painful.

"Mummy is here." Jiang Luo immediately held his hand back and whispered softly in his ear.

Probably because of the effect, Gu Zhi deliberately calmed down slowly, and his brows relaxed.

Jiang Luo was stung by this scene, and decided even more that she must protect Gu Zhi and improve her abilities.

Only in this way can she protect the person she wants to protect. She must break free from the cage and be qualified to protect Gu Zhi and prevent him from being frightened.

She closed her eyes and thought, and gradually fell asleep. It was rare for her to sleep peacefully that night.

The next day, Jiang Luo, who had taken action, was practicing singing when he was suddenly interrupted by a phone ringing.
