If You Are A Dodder Flower Chapter 2 Part2

In this new apartment, Cao Xiong gave them a luxurious life where they don't even need to worry about daily expenses, as usual he treated her with much love.

Her body is weak, she always falls sick and needs to eat medicine and take injections. In the past, she was a burden to the family, which is one of the main reason why her husband disliked her. However, the same thing happened was not a big deal to Cao Xiong.

Although Cao Xiong could not give her a proper t.i.tle, but she was able to live well.

His sons have also met Cheng Wan before during unofficial occasions, they even had dinner together.

Ever since Cao Xiong had Cheng Wan beside him, supposedly this man should be slowly facing his declining years, but his looks were rejuvenated with youth instead. His sons have only noticed the fact that, even their cold and strong father, also……would also needed someone to accompany him.

Cao Yang and Cao Bin have also observed Cheng Wan before, until they confirmed that she was just a gentle and well-behaved woman, who has not much of excessive desire on materials, nor any wild ambition to pursuit.

She alone brought her daughter up, the only wish she wanted was to have a peaceful life.

Cao Xiong has even discussed with Cao Yang in secret that, he did not have any intention of increasing a family member for them, he has already gone to the hospital for ligation operation, so that they could be at ease.

Their father has sacrificed too much for them, that made the few brothers of the Cao family felt guilty towards him.

There may be a lot of woman who can settle his physical desire, but there wasn't any woman who would truly accompany Cao Xiong. Thus, when Cheng Wan managed to bring happiness to their father, they would also pay their respect to her. Sometimes when they met her, they would politely call her "Aunt Cheng".

This woman is soft and obedient, she is just like a plant of dodder flower raised in Cao Xiong's room, can only be used for relaxing and decorate the scenery to be more pleasing. Even Cao Xiong himself thought the same looking at Cheng Wan.

Only that, this plant of dodder flower, particularly gained his favour.

Cao Xiong was 16 years older than Cheng Wan, everyone thinks that Cheng Wan would be accompanying Cao Xiong through the rest of his life. No one would have known that the one who pa.s.sed away first, would be Cheng Wan.

More unexpectedly, after this plant of dodder flower has withered, a strong mountain like Cao Xiong, would suddenly looked like half of his life has been sucked away.

Cao Xiong thought, it must be because he has gotten old.

Because he's old, so his heart has gotten softer. As time flies, Cheng Wan has deeply rooted inside his heart.

He closed his eyes, and recalled what Cheng Wan entrusted him, then gave out a long sigh.

The second son, Cao Bin also sighed: "Annoying, it's a person!" Not a cat nor a dog, but a woman.

The third son Cao Xing had a buff body, his muscles looked like it'll burst the shirt soon. He looked at his brothers, tried to ask: "What about…… find her something like a boarding school?"

The eldest son in Cao family remained silence and smoked, then said: "Nevermind."

"It's been a long time since I've seen that child, how old was she? Fourteen? Fifteen?" he flicked the ash off the cigarette, "She lost her mom at this young age……"

Cao Bin and Cao Xing didn't talk anymore.

Last time when their mother pa.s.sed away, one was 12 years old, and another was 10 years old. Even the oldest son, Cao Yang was only 14 years old. They already have intelligence.

The fear and sadness they have faced when their mother suddenly pa.s.sed away, although the memory has faded, but it's always been there.

Especially the situation is different with them, this time it was a girl. Letting her alone outside, what if something bad happens……

"Father will definitely kill us." Cao Bin put his palm on his forehead.

In the end, this matter was decided by the eldest son, Cao Yang.

"Just raise her in our house, its not a big deal." Cao Yang said, "Raise until she finishes her university, in the future if she wants to get married, then prepare her some dowry."

Simple as that, he has already planned out everything for that little girl who he hasn't met for a long time.

He tried to recall and asked: "What was the name of that child again?"

This question has trapped his two little brothers. A few years back they had seen this child before, that time she was around ten, or eleven? She was a pretty little girl, but her character was a bit introverted. After she politely greeted everyone then she will hide behind her mother and not talk anymore, she looks very shy. In their impression, she was just like her mother.

As for her name……Translated by The Novelst

"I think it was…… Xiao Hou? (*It means little monkey in Chinese)" Cao Bin was unsure.

Cao Xing immediately burst in laughter.

"How come I also remember her name was called Xiao Hou?" Cao Yang was also uncertain.

Cao Xing thumped on the table: "What kind of weird name is that?"

"I think it's true." Cao Bin said.

n.o.body knew whether it's true or not. They have not given any interest to Cheng Wan, what's more this is only a little girl.

Cao Yang asked his second little brother: "When are you leaving?"

"I was thinking of leaving tomorrow." Cao Bin replied, "But I'll just take a look of that little girl first before I leave."

Two days after, Cao Yang came home during the evening, Butler Zhou called him: "That child has been here for a while, commander had something came up suddenly, he couldn't make it. Do you want to have a look?"

"How pitiful of her……" Butler Zhou added. She had no other relatives, after her mother pa.s.sed away, she became an orphan.

Cao Yang took his army hat and wore back on his head: "Where is she?"

"Living room."

Cao Yang walked pa.s.sed the conference room, when he arrived to the living room, the sunlight in a summer season is still bright although it's already evening, it shines into the living room through the window from the west, illuminated the young girl quietly sitting on the sofa.

That little girl sat on the soft sofa, but her posture was straight, if only her shoulders were not that small and thin, and her waist was not that slim, she would have a little demeanor of an army.

Cao Yang's footstep stopped, he squinted his eyes as he looks towards the sunlight, that little girl slightly lowered her neck.

Slim, that was his first thought. With the strength he has, a simple garrote would break her neck immediately.

Snow white, that was his second thought. Under the exposure of the golden sunlight, that neckline of hers was particularly beautiful.

Obedient, that was his third thought. That att.i.tude, within her softness there was a sense of obeisance that would satisfy a man.

Cao Yang suddenly remembered, that child's name was not Xiao Hou.

Her name was Xiao Rou.

Followed by her father's surname, Xia.

She's called Xia Rou.

Xia from the word of summer, and Rou from the word of gentle.
