Chapter 698: Chapter 698: Other Kids Have Mom and Dad
“Xiaobao, be good, Mommy really has something urgent,” she held his little hand, “Grandma and Aunt are very nice people; Xiaobao, don’t be scared.”
He fidgeted, his face unhappy. “I’m not scared. I just want to be with Mommy and Daddy.”
Daddy had already come back, but they still hadn’t lived together. The little guy inevitably started to panic.
“Xiaobao…” Zhixi had never expected her usually communicative son to be so stubborn today. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novelꜰire.net
“Mommy, I want to go play.” He blinked, tears unexpectedly welling in his eyes, “I want Mommy and Daddy to both take me out to play. They do it like that on TV; other kids all have their mommies and daddies.”
As he spoke, tears of grievance fell.
Zhixi saw this and was heartbroken.
“Xiaobao…” she kissed his face several times, “There will definitely be a chance in the future. How about you go over with Daddy for now?”
He didn’t speak, but his little face was filled with loss.
Zhixi was both heartbroken and worried. She sighed, helping him put his toothbrush into his mouth. “Why don’t you go ahead and brush your teeth, okay?”
He obediently did as he was told but was still very unhappy.
Zhixi felt somewhat helpless.
After he had brushed up, Zhixi carried him to the dining room. Pei Yuanchen had just come out of his room and instantly noticed the little guy’s unhappy face.
“Oy, what’s wrong?” He pulled out a chair and sat down.
Xiaobao pouted his mouth. Before he could speak, tears started to fall, the sight of him utterly pitiful.
“Xiaobao…” Zhixi felt incredibly guilty, holding his soft little body, “Mommy promises you, there will definitely be a chance in the future. You believe Mommy, right?”
He stretched out his two chubby hands and vigorously rubbed his eyes, remaining silent while he sobbed and tears continued to fall, his appearance terribly pitiful.
“What’s wrong with Xiaobao?” Pei Yuanchen couldn’t stand it anymore and glared at Zhixi, “If it isn’t an unreasonable request, why can’t you just agree to it?”
“I…” Zhixi bit her lip in frustration.
Mainly, just yesterday, she had righteously declared she wouldn’t go together, and for this, she had even specifically called Ning Yichen over.
“Look at you, how can you be a mom ?” Yuanchen spoke with disdain, looking toward the little guy, “Xiaobao, don’t be sad. Tell uncle what you want, and uncle will definitely agree to it.”
He choked up again. “I want Mommy and Daddy to take me out to play… wuu wuu wuu…”
Pei Yuanchen was at a loss for words.
After a long moment, he looked at Zhixi. “Have you noticed, since you’ve been in Yangdong City, you’ve always kept Xiaobao at home. Of course, I know you’re worried about his safety, but it’s just so unfair to him.”
Zhixi realized he was right, her heart suddenly feeling as if it had been harshly tugged.
She felt incredibly guilty and pulled out a tissue to wipe her son’s face. “Xiaobao, be good, Mommy promises you… In a little while, Mommy will accompany you to see Grandma and Aunt, and then… um, if Daddy agrees too, we’ll take you to the amusement park, okay?”
The little guy sniffled and asked, “Mom… Mommy, really? You… you’re not lying to me…”
“Mommy isn’t lying to you!” Zhixi said resolutely.
Seeing the little guy so heartbroken, what were her slight hesitations and dilemmas compared to that?
