Seeing Lin Cheng coming in the car, Lin Momo blinked and showed a surprised expression.
Zhou Qi in the front row was also surprised when he saw this.
"Brother Cheng, you..."
"Aren't you going to send Momo back?" Lin Cheng asked.
"Yes," Zhou Qi nodded, and said, "But..."
Before Zhou Qi could finish speaking, Lin Cheng said, "Let's go, together."
"Brother Cheng, are you going to send Momo home?" Zhou Qi asked in a slightly surprised voice, but after thinking about it, he didn't think it was strange—after all, Brother Cheng and the kid got along well during the recording of the program. After taking it for a long time, it brings out feelings, and it is human nature to be reluctant.
Lin Momo also had the same thought as Zhou Qi, and she simply thought that Lin Cheng was going to send her home, so she was excited.
"Dad, do you really want to send me back?"
"En." Lin Cheng nodded, seeing the unconcealable joy on Lin Momo's face, the smile on Lin Cheng's mouth widened a bit.
Raising his hand to rub Lin Momo's head, Lin Cheng said again: "Go see your grandma, thank her for teaching Momo so well."
Hearing Lin Cheng's words, Lin Momo was taken aback.
Realizing that her father seemed to be praising herself, Lin Momo was a little embarrassed, and whispered: "It's not very good."
However, from her raised eyebrows and raised mouth corners, it can be seen that the girl is very happy at this time.
In the front row, Zhou Qi watched the interaction between the father and daughter in the back row through the rearview mirror, and couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional.
The relationship between Lin Cheng and Lin Momo in the show was much more natural and intimate than before, especially in the first episode. Many viewers in the live broadcast room said, "This show taught dads to learn how to raise their babies," and said, "The show It's Papa's Metamorphosis'.
Originally, Zhou Qi thought that Lin Cheng watched the performances of other groups after the show was officially broadcast, and tried to act more like his father for the effect of the show. Unexpectedly, the relationship between the "father and daughter" in private was really real. for the better.
"It would be great if the real father and daughter..." Zhou Qi murmured silently in his heart: I heard Chen Yu say that Lin Cheng seemed to intend to adopt Lin Momo, but at this time, Zhou Qi was looking forward to it.
…
The car quickly drove outside the old residential area where Lin Momo and Liu Cuifang lived.
The old-fashioned residential buildings are densely packed, and cars can't drive in. Zhou Qi had to park his car at the intersection outside the residential area.
After saying to Zhou Qi, "Go back to the company, don't wait for me", Lin Cheng and Lin Momo got out of the car together.
Seeing that Lin Cheng didn't leave immediately, Lin Momo was secretly happy in her heart, and pulled Lin Cheng to the entrance of the residential area.
"Dad, this is where my grandma and I live." Lin Momo pointed to the old-fashioned buildings in front of him and introduced to Lin Cheng.
The two walked into the residential area all the way, and Lin Momo started to introduce Lin Cheng like a guide.
"The side we walked in is the main road, and there is a small road on the other side. I used to go to school on the small road over there."
"And that one, turn in from that small opening, it's the steamed stuffed bun shop I told you about earlier, the owner and the owner's wife are very nice."
"The fitness equipment over there was installed by the uncles and aunts in the community last year. Although they are not downstairs, we can use them."
"Well, and that tree, although only half left, will still bear fruit in autumn."
…
Hearing Lin Momo's enthusiastic introduction, Lin Cheng silently observed the place where she lived before, feeling complicated.
After turning another alley and coming to several small residential buildings next to each other, Lin Momo excitedly pointed to one of them, and raised her voice to Lin Cheng: "Here, here, our house is in this. "
"Here, on the third floor above, the one between the two windows is the home of my grandma and I." Lin Momo pointed to a direction in the middle of the third floor and said to Lin Cheng.
However, since the house she and Liu Cuifang lived in had only one single room, which was sandwiched between the other two houses, and had no windows, they couldn't see their house from the outside.
As if thinking of something, the excitement on Lin Momo's face suddenly subsided, and she looked at Lin Cheng with some hesitation.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Lin Momo who suddenly became quiet, Lin Cheng asked.
"that is…"
"Huh?" Lin Cheng looked at Lin Momo patiently.
Lin Momo lowered her head slightly, twisted her sleeves, and whispered, "Maybe the place we live in is not so good..."
Before, she was so happy, but when she came to the door of the house, Lin Momo suddenly realized that the place where she and grandma lived might be too small and poor for Lin Cheng, and she was a little afraid that the other party would dislike coming to such a place .
Hearing Lin Momo's words, seeing the awkwardness and anxiety on the girl's face, Lin Cheng felt a little distressed, and then raised his hand to touch Lin Momo's head, and said softly: "It's okay, we didn't do it when we recorded the show before. Have you ever lived in a house like this?"
"Our family may not be as good as that one..." Lin Momo muttered in a low voice, but the warmth of Lin Cheng's palm above her head still made her nervousness subside a lot.
Lin Momo led Lin Cheng into the corridor.
The corridor is long and narrow, and because it is almost impervious to light, it is a little dark even in the afternoon.
Lin Momo ran in front of Lin Cheng, put her feet on her feet, pulled down a light cord in the corner, and turned on the lights in the corridor for him.
The dim light barely illuminated the corridor.
Lin Cheng looked around. The corridor reminded him of the old-fashioned community room the two lived in when they recorded the first episode of the program, and finally understood why Lin Momo was so used to it.
"It will be two more floors." Lin Momo said to Lin Cheng while walking.
Just as the two were climbing up the corridor, a middle-aged woman in her forties and fifties happened to come down the stairs.
This is the neighbor above Lin Momo's, named Zhang Xia.
The moment Zhang Xia saw Lin Momo, Zhang Xia was stunned.
"Lin Momo?" Zhang Xia called Lin Momo in surprise, and then stared at her in surprise.
Residents living in this area either don't have a TV at home, or are busy with life all day long, and rarely pay attention to TV programs and entertainment variety shows. In addition, Liu Cuifang has never mentioned to anyone what Lin Momo is doing, so others don't know Lin Momo is going to participate in the recording of the show.
Even if someone accidentally saw Lin Momo on TV, they would not match the star's child on the show with the child they picked up from their building.
Everyone only knew that Liu Cuifang hadn't lived at home most of the time because of her leg injury, and they hadn't seen Granny Liu, the granddaughter they picked up, for a long time.
At this time, Lin Momo was wearing a bright pink sweater dress. She had grown a little taller, and her face seemed to have grown a little flesh. Zhang Xia almost didn't recognize her.
"Ah, it's really Xiao Momo." Zhang Xia confirmed after looking at Lin Momo carefully again.
"Aunt Zhang." Lin Momo called out to the other party.
"I haven't seen you for several days. Where are you from?" As she asked, before Lin Momo could answer, Zhang Xia noticed Lin Cheng behind Lin Momo.
"This is...?" Zhang Xia looked at Lin Momo and then at Lin Cheng, full of doubts.
- Who is this man? The temperament and appearance are too eye-catching.
Zhang Xia thought to herself, she couldn't help but look at Lin Cheng again.
"Well, he is..." Lin Momo didn't know how to explain Lin Cheng's identity.
At this moment, Lin Cheng took Lin Momo's words and said directly, "I am her father."
After finishing speaking, Lin Cheng nodded towards Zhang Xia as if to say hello, then led Lin Momo around him and went straight upstairs.
Leaving Zhang Xia with question marks all over her face in the corridor.
—
Here, Lin Cheng and Lin Momo came to the third floor.
"This room is our home." Lin Momo pointed to the middle door and said to Lin Cheng.
Lin Momo found the house key from her schoolbag, walked to the door and opened it.
Opening the door, Lin Momo shouted into the room: "Grandma, I'm back."
Only then did Lin Momo notice that not only Liu Cuifang was at home, but there were other people.
Wang Yu walked to the door and called out to Lin Cheng, "Master."
Because of Lin Cheng's special instructions, Wang Yu and the nurses arranged by him were responsible for Liu Cuifang's trips, going to the nursing center, and going to the hospital for reexamination this week.
At this time, Wang Yu had just brought the old man back from the hospital.
After another week of recovery, Liu Cuifang's leg injury had already healed. Seeing her granddaughter coming back, Liu Cuifang immediately put on a smile, got up and walked to the door to take the schoolbag behind Lin Momo.
"Our little Momo is back."
At this time, Liu Cuifang already knew the news that Zhang Xiaoqiang was arrested and sentenced: Hearing this news, Liu Cuifang didn't feel too much emotion, but was more relieved.
Just hearing from Lin Cheng's assistant that Lin Momo was fine, she was relieved.
At this moment, seeing Lin Momo come back safe and sound with her own eyes, the big stone in Liu Cuifang's heart finally fell.
"No, I did really well this week." Lin Momo said: Dad even praised her when she came back.
Hearing Lin Momo's words, Liu Cuifang smiled and nodded again, and said kindly, "Okay, okay, as long as you don't cause trouble to others."
After finishing speaking, Liu Cuifang looked at Lin Cheng who was behind Lin Momo.
"You are the Mr. Lin that Xiao Chen mentioned before, our family Momo has caused you trouble, please come in and sit down."
Liu Cuifang invited Lin Cheng into the house.
Walking into the room, Lin Cheng looked around the whole room.
This room is not big, even smaller than the room they lived in when they recorded the first episode of the program, with a few simple furniture displayed everywhere in the room. Due to living for too long, the whole room is very old, and the furniture is also very worn out, but every part of the house has been tidied up very clean, simple but not messy.
On the wall at the head of the smaller bed, Lin Cheng saw the khaki caterpillar puppet he had brought to Lin Momo in the show before. A small cloth head was hung crookedly in front of the caterpillar. The word 'Dad' was embroidered with thread.
Next to this caterpillar, there is also a smaller caterpillar that I sewed by myself with a few pieces of rags. Although this caterpillar is a bit crooked, it can still be vaguely seen that it is the same size as the big one next to it. payment.
There is also a small piece of cloth hanging on the small caterpillar, embroidered with 'Momo'.
Liu Cuifang followed Lin Cheng's line of sight and saw the two puppets on the wall, and explained: "The little one next to it was made by Momo herself."
After speaking, Liu Cuifang looked at Lin Cheng again, smiled, and said, "Little Momo likes you very much."
Every time Lin Momo came back after recording the show, she would share with Liu Cuifang what happened to her this week, among which Lin Cheng was mentioned the most.
When Lin Cheng was mentioned, Lin Momo always had a happy smile on his face.
Because of this, Liu Cuifang had a good impression of Lin Cheng even when she saw Lin Cheng himself for the first time.
Liu Cuifang was very grateful to the young man in front of her - because of Lin Cheng's relationship, her leg was healed, and from Lin Momo's narration, Liu Cuifang could hear that Lin Cheng was very kind to Lin Momo, he didn't make her suffer, and he didn't let her suffer. It didn't hurt her.
Looking at Lin Momo who has been busy tinkering with things since returning home, Liu Cuifang's face was stained with a loving smile.
Here, hearing what grandma and father said, Lin Momo, who was looking for a fruit plate in the cabinet, blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
"Dad, drink water." Lin Momo trotted over and handed a glass of water to Lin Cheng, taking the opportunity to interrupt the conversation between Liu Cuifang and Lin Cheng.
Then, he put the washed fruit in front of Lin Cheng
"Daddy eats fruit."
The fruits were given by the aunts in the community when they came to express their condolences. They gave some to the neighbors, and there were five left. Lin Momo generously washed them all, which was just enough for a plate.
There was a small chip on the plate that was barely considered a fruit plate, but Lin Momo washed it very clean.
Looking at the 'fruit bowl' facing him, Lin Cheng picked out the biggest one and handed it to Lin Momo.
After taking the apple, Lin Momo smiled at Lin Cheng: "Thank you, Dad."
Seeing Lin Momo sitting aside, Lin Cheng looked at Liu Cuifang again, his expression became serious.
"I came today to talk to you about Momo's life experience." Lin Cheng said directly without beating around the bush.
Liu Cuifang had known about Lin Cheng's coming from Wang Yu before, and seemed to want to talk to her about something, but at this moment, Liu Cuifang was still very surprised to hear about Lin Cheng's coming.
"Little Momo's life experience?"
Lin Cheng nodded and said, "I am her biological father."
"!" Hearing this, Liu Cuifang was startled.
Even Lin Momo, who was quietly nibbling on an apple, was stunned, and looked at Lin Cheng with his mouth wide open.
She always thought that Lin Cheng didn't know the blood relationship between them, but didn't she think that her father already knew?
Lin Momo looked at Lin Cheng in disbelief.
"You said you and Momo, this, how is this possible..." For this sudden incident, Liu Cuifang was still a little hard to digest: in her cognition, Lin Momo and the big star in front of her were two completely different people. People who don't know each other, because the other party wants to record a program, what kind of data screening did they use to find their family Momo...
Faced with the surprise of the old and the young, Lin Cheng continued: "We have done a paternity test before, and I am indeed her biological father."
"Because of my personal reasons and some other reasons, I have Momo."
With his eyes sinking, Lin Cheng said again: "At that time, I had just entered the entertainment circle, and at a celebration banquet, I was unconscious because of drinking, so I didn't know that I had Momo afterwards."
Facing Liu Cuifang and Lin Momo, Lin Cheng took the responsibility for the matter onto himself.
What really made Lin Cheng delirious was not the wine, but the contents of the wine. At that time, Lin Cheng's bodily functions were normal, but his consciousness could not control his body, and he had no sense of what happened, so the next day, Lin Cheng noticed something was wrong in time, and he never thought about having a child at all.
As for who moved the hands and feet...
At present, Lin Cheng has found out his original agent, but the relationship behind it is far more complicated than this.
Thinking of this, Lin Cheng's eyes flashed coldly.
After listening to Lin Cheng's explanation, Liu Cuifang seemed to believe his words.
"Then, where's Momo's mother?"
"I'm a fan." Lin Cheng's answer was simple.
Although Lin Cheng didn't intend to hide Lin Momo's life experience and his blood relationship from the beginning, but in front of his children, Lin Cheng didn't want her to feel that her birth was not expected, which was a mistake Therefore, Lin Cheng concealed some details.
After listening, Liu Cuifang nodded and stopped asking.
Both sides were silent for a while, before Liu Cuifang asked Lin Cheng nervously: "So, are you going to take Xiao Momo away?"
"Her current living and learning environment is not conducive to her growth, so, as a father, I hope to give her a relatively complete family and a better living and educational environment as much as possible."
Hearing this, Liu Cuifang nodded again: Lin Cheng is Lin Momo's biological father, since he found the child, there is nothing wrong with taking her away, and Lin Momo really needs a better environment for his growth.
However, Liu Cuifang was reluctant to part with this child.
Just when Liu Cuifang was feeling reluctant, she heard Lin Cheng say again: "There is another matter, which is your pension."
"you said I?"
Lin Cheng nodded, and said again: "You are Momo's grandma, and you will always be..."
Lin Cheng revealed his plan: he asked people to clean up the house in Jingyiyuan, and arranged for a special nanny to facilitate Liu Cuifang's move there. It is suitable for the elderly, and it is not far from Binjiang Yipin where Lin Cheng lives now, so he can see Lin Momo anytime.
Hearing Lin Cheng's plan, although Liu Cuifang was moved, she didn't dare to accept it: "It's so embarrassing, it's too much trouble for you."
"No trouble, and you have raised Momo for 9 years, I should do this."
"I didn't raise her well, and let her suffer with me all the time..."
"But you've given her the best you can."
…
Liu Cuifang lowered her head, and after some consideration, she finally nodded.
"Let me tidy up again." Liu Cuifang said, although there are not many things in this house, there are still some things worth nostalgic for.
"Yes, no rush." Lin Cheng nodded and said.
Lin Cheng looked at Lin Momo who was on the side again.
At this time, Lin Momo's expression was still a little dazed.
Seeing Lin Cheng looking over, Lin Momo asked uncertainly, "Do you want to support me?"
"Yes, I will support you." Lin Cheng nodded.
With Lin Cheng's affirmation, surprise flashed in Lin Momo's eyes.
"In the past two days, I plan to take Momo to deal with the household registration." Lin Cheng looked at Liu Cuifang again and told his plan.
After a short conversation, Lin Cheng originally planned to let Lin Momo go back with him, but before leaving, Lin Cheng changed his mind when he noticed the reluctance in the girl's eyes.
"I'll come pick you up tomorrow." Lin Cheng slowed down and said to Lin Momo.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Lin Momo's eyes lit up: "Okay!"
"Father, I'll see you off!" Seeing that Lin Cheng was about to leave, Lin Momo chased him out.
The two walked in the alleys of the residential area, but Lin Momo was not as happy as Lin Cheng expected.
"What's wrong?" Lin Cheng lowered his head and asked.
Lin Momo seemed to be hesitating, she pulled her head together, and after a while, she asked Lin Cheng again in a confirming manner: "Father, do you really want to support me?"
The girl's voice was cautious, as if she was afraid that Lin Cheng would repent in the next second.
Hearing this, Lin Cheng's eyes moved, and he bent down to make himself look at Lin Momo.
"Sorry, I didn't find you."
