When the abusive male protagonist wakes up

Tao An lowered his eyes, silently closed the door without saying anything.

Hearing the footsteps that had left for a long time outside, Tao An held the child and sat on the chair without effort, looking at the empty home in a daze.

He knew Gu Haoxing's temper so well, if he really angered him, he would be able to do anything.

Tao An remembered that he left by bus today, and Gu Haoxing found him so soon, even if he really escaped successfully, how long can he hide?

And he has a child with him, so he can't always live in hiding.

Tao An made a difficult decision, planning to stay here for a while and try it out, and if Gu Haoxing regretted it at that time, he would take the child away.

Tao An comforted himself, thinking that maybe after a long time, Gu Haoxing might give up, and Tang Li wouldn't let him pester him all the time, it was only a matter of time before the other party left.

That night, Tao An turned on the phone, because it hadn't been turned on all day, and he didn't see the text message from the owner and his wife until now.

They thought that Tao An wanted to leave because of the low salary, so they advised Tao An to stay and continue working in the text message, and they could give him a proper salary increase.

After all, all the customers in the store came for Tao An and the children, if they left, they would definitely lose a lot of business.

Tao An was also worried about why he should talk to the shop owner not to resign, but when the shop shop owner asked him, he agreed to go back to work without a salary increase.

Early the next morning, Tao An took the child out to work as usual. When he came downstairs, he saw Gu Haoxing's car parked at the entrance of the community from a distance.

Tao An didn't expect that Gu Haoxing hadn't returned yet, so he was in a complicated mood. He had just passed the security booth when the door of the luxury car opened from inside, and Gu Haoxing got out of the car, his hair was messy and unkempt, and he looked slovenly. Like just waking up.

Tao An froze for a moment, did he spend the night in the car yesterday?

As if to see through Tao An's thoughts, Gu Haoxing said dissatisfied and bitterly: "I have to stay and watch you."

He didn't sleep last night. He was afraid that Tao An would run away with the child while he was not paying attention. He drank bitter coffee several times before he survived.

Seeing that Tao An remained silent, Gu Haoxing glanced at the child in Tao An's arms, swallowed, "Are you going to work?"

Tao An didn't answer this question, and walked forward with his head buried in the child.

Gu Haoxing couldn't care less about breakfast, so he quickly followed Tao An, and said beside him, "Have you had breakfast? There is a teahouse here that is very delicious. I'll take you to try it. You will definitely like it."

Gu Haoxing still held the fantasy of coaxing Tao An, and would go home with him when the other party's anger subsided, trying to soften Tao An's heart by offering some sweets like before.

Tao An didn't want to respond at first, but Gu Haoxing kept asking, so he could only say, "I've eaten."

Gu Haoxing stalked and continued: "What did you eat? You must not have eaten well considering you are so thin. I heard that people in confinement need to eat something good to supplement their nutrition. I will ask Xiao Jiang to buy some for you. Yes, you can take it with you to work."

Tao An stopped, looked at Gu Haoxing, and insisted, "I've eaten it before, so you don't need to buy it."

Seeing Tao An's obviously resisting attitude, Gu Haoxing felt a pang of anger in his heart, but he couldn't help it, and his tone became unpleasant, "I'm just worried that you won't have enough to eat."

Tao An didn't talk to him again, and walked across the zebra crossing to the store.

In fact, the neighborhood is not too close to a convenience store, and it would be much faster to take a bus, but during the peak hours of the day, it is always crowded with people, and Tao An still has to hold the baby, so he dare not take the risk, for fear of an accident.

Moreover, Tao An thought that walking could not only exercise his body, but also save a fortune on the fare, which was the best of both worlds.

But it was hard for Gu Haoxing, he traveled all year round by car, and he didn't know how long he hadn't traveled a long distance. After walking with Tao An for nearly half an hour, his back was soaked with sweat.

Tao An tried his best to ignore Gu Haoxing's existence, covered the child's head with his hands to avoid being exposed to the sun, and walked forward quickly, without saying a word to Gu Haoxing.

At the entrance of the convenience store, Gu Haoxing still wanted to go in with Tao An, but Tao An stopped, looked back at him, and stopped him: "You, don't come in."

Gu Haoxing looked at the hot sun outside, and frowned, "Is it okay to go in and sit for a while?"

Tao An shook his head, "You will affect the business, don't, don't come in."

He blocked the door, as if he would not let Gu Haoxing in, so Gu Haoxing could only be forced to stop, "Okay, I won't go in to the head office, shall I?"

Tao An saw that Gu Haoxing didn't look like he was lying, so he opened the glass door and walked in.

He came to the rest room, took out the baby's milk bottle, fed it to the baby, and tidied up all the barriers beside the bed to prevent the baby from falling, and then went to work in peace.

Just as Tao An closed the door, he found that Gu Haoxing had followed in again at some point. He was a little annoyed, "Didn't you say you don't want to come in?"

Gu Haoxing avoided Tao An's blaming eyes, and said in a low voice, "I'll just come in and buy breakfast, your store won't even accept customers, right?"

Seeing that he was already holding a sandwich in his hand, Tao An had no choice but to pretend to be busy with his affairs.

Gu Haoxing purposely wandered around the store slowly, taking a peek at Tao An from the corner of his eye.

Tao An lowered his head and was tidying up the cash register, his slightly long bangs fell down and hung on his eyelashes,

It took nearly half an hour for a breakfast, and then Tao An's face became very unsightly, so Gu Haoxing casually took a bottle of coffee and went to pay the bill.

Tao An scanned the product with the scanner, glanced at the machine, and said to Gu Haoxing, "It's 35 yuan in total."

Gu Haoxing took out his wallet, took out a card and handed it over without looking at it.

The card-swiping machine in the store broke down very early, and the number of customers who usually come to the store is small, so the card-swiping machine has never been repaired.

Tao An squeezed the cold credit card in his hand, fell into a dilemma, pursed his lips and asked, "Do you have cash?"

Gu Haoxing deliberately opened the wallet to show Tao An, and said with a smile, "Do you think I look like someone with cash?"

Tao An knew about Gu Haoxing, and he never brought cash when he went out. After all, he could pay for the money wherever the rich could afford to spend. Who would have thought that Gu Haoxing would buy things in a convenience store one day.

But the store couldn't swipe the card, Tao An couldn't tell Gu Haoxing not to buy it, there was really no way, he could only take the credit card to other stores to exchange money.

After tossing for almost half an hour, I finally settled the bill.

Tao An handed the bag and the card to Gu Haoxing, and whispered, "Bring cash next time, or I won't pay the bill."

Gu Haoxing agreed happily, and when he took the bag from Tao An's hand, he caught Tao An's hand unexpectedly.

Tao An was taken aback, and subconsciously withdrew his hand, but was held tightly by Gu Haoxing.

Tao An glared at him angrily, "Let go."

Gu Haoxing's Adam's apple rolled slightly, "When do you get off work today?"

Tao An pulled his hand back with all his strength, and said in a very strange tone: "It has nothing to do with you, you can go, don't affect the business."

Gu Haoxing was very unwilling, but Tao An would be angry if this went on, so he had no choice but to withdraw his hand, turn around and push the door out.

Watching Gu Haoxing's leaving back, Tao An's tense body relaxed. Every time he gets along with Gu Haoxing, he always gets nervous unconsciously.

Today was the weekend, and the business during the day was particularly good. By the time Tao An finished his work, it was already noon.

He looked outside the convenience store, trying to find the figure, and soon saw Gu Haoxing under a big tree not far away. He was making a call with his mobile phone, his face was a little ugly, and he looked like he was arguing with someone.

Gu Haoxing received a call from Tang Li just now, asking why he didn't go home these days.

In the past when the two quarreled, only Gu Haoxing bowed his head. This time Tang Li took the initiative to call, obviously feeling a little uneasy after being left alone by Gu Haoxing for too long, so he bowed his head for the first time.

Gu Haoxing did not tell Tang Li that he had found Tao An, but only said that he was on a business trip in another province recently and would not go back for the time being.

Although Tang Li was a little skeptical, the two finally reconciled, and he didn't dare to mention Tao An's matter. He acted like a good wife and said that he would cook delicious food for Gu Haoxing when he got home.

After finally dismissing Tang Li, Gu Haoxing hung up the phone a little anxiously, he raised his head inadvertently, and met Tao An's eyes in the convenience store.

Gu Haoxing was overjoyed, just as he was about to speak, Tao An silently looked away.

Gu Haoxing opened his mouth, and his throat was full of words, feeling very uncomfortable.

It turns out that this is the feeling of being ignored. Gu Haoxing remembered that when Tao An called him to ask him to go home, he always ignored the answer, and even told Tao An to be sensible and stop calling him all the time.

Did Tao An feel as uncomfortable at that time as he does now?

The more Gu Haoxing thinks back on the past, the more he feels that he was not a human before.

No wonder Tao An doesn't go back with him now, maybe he has been disappointed in him for a long time, right?

After finally getting off work, Tao An and the old staff handed over their shifts and left the convenience store with their children.

This time he didn't avoid Gu Hao as he did last time, but stayed where he was and waited for Gu Hao to come over.

Gu Haoxing didn't notice Tao An's strangeness, so he took the initiative to walk over and asked, "Get off work?"

Tao An nodded, he looked up at Gu Haoxing, he seemed hesitant to speak.

Gu Haoxing saw through that Tao An had something to say, and became excited for no reason, "Do you want to tell me something?"

Tao An hummed lightly.

It was rare for Tao An to take the initiative to talk to him. Gu Haoxing was so excited that his tone was filled with lingering joy: "Did you change your mind and want to go back with me?"

Tao An shook his head, and suddenly said, "You said last time that you tore up the divorce agreement."

Gu Haoxing's heart skipped a beat, he didn't understand why Tao An suddenly brought up this matter, he had a vague premonition, and he hesitated to answer, "Yes, what's wrong?"

Tao An clenched his lips, "You bring the divorce agreement, we will re-sign it."
