Her signature included the words ’Do Not Miss,’ and with just a few brief sentences, she had made the reasons for her departure absolutely clear.
Did Lin Yebai call her?
How could he be completely unaware?
He rubbed his aching head, it took him a while before he turned to his son standing beside him, "Xiaobao, when did your mom leave?"
Xiaobao blinked his beautiful eyes, "Around eight o’clock, I think. She said you were still sleeping, told me not to disturb you, and said you went to bed very late last night."
He finally got up from the ground, holding his aching head. He remembered a similar situation from five years before, and couldn’t help but feel the anxiety that had been weighing on his heart subside a little.
Is this the painful consequence of rolling in the sheets with a woman all night?
He went to the bedroom to wash up and change his clothes. During this time, his head hurt so badly that he stopped thinking about the incident, planning to wait until he had calmed down to reflect on it further.
After getting himself ready, he came out, and just as he was about to call Ningzhou Prison to check on the situation, the doorbell at home suddenly rang.
"Xiaobao, go see who it is?"
Xiaobao was quite obedient. After his mom left, he was told to behave well and stay with his uncle, and he really did just that, without crying or making a fuss. Hearing the instruction to open the door, he pulled a small stool over to reach it.
Along the way, the sound of the stool legs scraping against the floor could be heard creaking.
Ou Mucen was making a call when he suddenly heard this sound and looked over to see the plump Little Baozi dragging a small stool to answer the doorbell. Without warning, something within him felt as though it had been heavily struck, and in that moment of tenderness, he lost the desire to continue the phone call. Striding forward with his long legs, he came over and scooped up the tiny bundle in his arms.
"Baby, let’s go, daddy will open it!"
Xiaobao was startled again!
What’s gotten into his uncle? He was treating him like his son all morning, incessantly calling himself daddy – could it be... that he had already won over his mom?
The four-year-old child, thinking of his mom who hadn’t come back to his room to sleep with him last night, parted his chubby little cheeks and obediently replied with a crisp voice, "Okay, daddy!"
When Ji Chengzhi entered, he happened to hear this call and immediately felt his bones soften; his eyes fixed on the door opener, the big one and the little one, staring unblinkingly, "Damn! They’re already calling daddy!"
Seeing it was Chengzhi, Ou Mucen didn’t bother to pay any more attention and, carrying his son, headed back to the living room to get something to eat from the kitchen fridge.
Seeing Little Baozi put down, Chengzhi forgot what he had come for, slipped off his shoes at the entrance, and sat down in front of the chubby boy, "Xiaobao, go on, call me Godfather."
What’s with another crazy person?
Ye Xiaobao’s little face, which bore a striking resemblance to the man behind him, gave him a very cool glance and didn’t say a word, turning around to play with his toys.
Seeing this, Chengzhi blew up, "Damn, Ou Mucen, he even has the same disdainful look as you, he is scorning me!!"
Ou Mucen was fetching something from the kitchen when he suddenly heard this, his gaze turned coldly in that direction, "Coming from me, do you expect him to look at you with any other expression?"
