Chapter 37 Kitten

For some reason, Jiang Shen, who knows Zhang Tuanyuan's mother best, avoids talking about her mother's affairs.

Jiang Shen always stayed with Ren Fenghe, so Ren Fenghe knew that except for the time when she stole the key to the mysterious room and lied, Jiang Shen had never called Zhang Tuanyuan's mother.

This is very strange. Jiang Shen once expressed that Zhang Tuanyuan's mother would take Zhang Tuanyuan back. But if that was the case, he should have contacted her more often to confirm when she could be picked up. However, Jiang Shen rarely contacted her.

Ren Fenghe started eating pasta again.

It is also possible that they did not contact by phone, but by text message.

But Jiang Shen hasn't mentioned Zhang Tuanyuan's mother for such a long time. Why did he suddenly talk about preparing a gift for Zhang Tuanyuan's mother today?

Ren Fenghe thought of her guess that Zhang Tuanyuan was not Jiang Shen’s daughter.

Regardless of whether Zhang Tuanyuan is Jiang Shen’s daughter or not, based on the current situation, Zhang Tuanyuan will return to her mother in the future.

But what if she continues to occupy this body and Zhang Tuanyuan can't come back?

Jiang Shen can be herself without restraint because she is not familiar with Zhang Tuanyuan's personality. However, Zhang Tuanyuan's mother has spent a long time with Zhang Tuanyuan, so how could she possibly hide the truth from her?

Ren Fenghe felt her head was in a mess and her heart was weird. A tangled ball of wool was running rampant in her body, messing up her thoughts.

If Zhang Tuanyuan is Jiang Shen's daughter, it would be detrimental to Jiang Shen and his team once this matter was exposed.

If Zhang Tuanyuan is not Jiang Shen’s daughter, will she have the opportunity to see Jiang Shen often after being sent back to Zhang Tuanyuan’s mother?

Ren Fenghe suddenly felt a little unappetizing.

She tugged at her clothes with one hand to relieve her emotional stress, and swallowed the remaining few mouthfuls of pasta in the bowl. She asked tentatively: "Prepare a gift for mom? Can I see mom?"

Jiang Shen shook his head and nodded again and said, "We can make a video call, and then we'll see when we meet in person."

Ren Fenghe decided to cross the line.

She put down what she was holding, lowered her head, slumped her shoulders, and pretended to be sad and depressed and asked: "Why doesn't my mother want to see me?"

Why did Zhang Tuanyuan's mother never show up again after handing her child over to Jiang Shen?

If she is really Zhang Tuanyuan, she must have suffered from childhood psychological trauma after being refused to see her mother several times.

Jiang Shen did not answer immediately.

His index finger tapped the table unconsciously, and his eyes fell on Ren Fenghe, as if he was recalling, or thinking and judging.

The small living room was so quiet that even the aroma of breakfast was frozen in the silence.

About three minutes later, Jiang Shen finally spoke.

It was a bit difficult for Jiang Shen to ask this question.

"Yuanyuan, even though your mom has always asked me to keep it a secret from you, I think you will feel more at ease if you know the truth about many things."

"You are still young. It is a bit too early to tell you these things for a child of your age. I have not told you because I am afraid that you will be worried and scared."

Jiang Shen's preparation made Ren Fenghe feel that there was a deep vortex in front of him, which would suck Zhang Tuanyuan in and make it difficult for him to climb out.

But she is not Zhang Tuanyuan, and to her, Zhang Tuanyuan’s mother’s affairs are like those of a stranger.

These things might be related to how she came here, and whether she could hide her identity well.

Ren Fenghe raised his head and said firmly: "I can accept it."

Seeing this, Jiang Shen decided to tell Ren Fenghe the part that could be revealed.

He understood why Zhang Jingchun didn't want Zhang Tuanyuan to know about her physical condition, but before he took Zhang Tuanyuan away and before Zhang Jingchun found the next nanny, Zhang Tuanyuan often stayed in the hospital, and she should have a rough guess about her mother's physical condition.

Otherwise, why would I have the wish to have a father who can take care of my mother, and why would I regard him as my father?

Jiang Shen tried his best to use tactful but easy-to-understand words so as not to hurt the other party with his words.

"Do you remember where we first met?"

It is said that children have short memories, especially sad things, which they forget even faster.

Considering that Yuanyuan might not remember that Zhang Jingchun was ill, Jiang Shen decided to start with a question.

Ren Fenghe didn't know, but she chose to nod.

After nodding, he looked at the other person with his dark eyes, as if waiting patiently for the other person to continue speaking.

"We met in the hospital, and I took you back to my home after that day."

"She didn't let you and Jingchun meet because she was afraid that you would worry about her. You know that your mother was sick and had to stay in the hospital to take care of you, so she asked me to take care of you for a while, right?"

When mentioning Zhang Jingchun, Jiang Shen's expression was obviously worried.

Ren Fenghe had always wanted to figure out the whole story, but he didn't expect this result.

The child was handed over to Jiang Shen's care. During this period, no other relatives came to see Zhang Tuanyuan, so we can only conclude that Zhang Tuanyuan has no other relatives.

Jiang Shen obviously cares about the other person, which is why he appears so worried.

Moreover, Zhang Jingchun, Zhang Tuanyuan's mother, may be very ill, so she is unwilling to even video chat with Zhang Tuanyuan.

Ren Fenghe made a lot of analysis and judgment.

But a question that she had repeatedly concluded and overturned came to her mind again, but she didn't dare to ask it out loud - is Zhang Tuanyuan his child?

Yes or no cannot affect their relationship during this period of time. The only thing that can affect it is how Jiang Shen will go in the future.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, as an adult, and as an adult who has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, he must be responsible for his choices.

As a fan, she only needs to stand at a distance and support him.

Ren Fenghe decided not to worry about whether to have children or not.

Her attention remained on the sick Zhang Jingchun.

"Is Mom's illness serious?" Ren Fenghe asked.

Jiang Shen said: "Her condition has improved."

This is also the reason why he suggested preparing a gift for Zhang Jingchun and had a video call with Zhang Jingchun.

Ren Fenghe understood from Jiang Shen's words how bad Zhang Jingchun's physical condition was.

She suddenly thought of Zhang Tuanyuan’s cry for help in his dream.

Is she hoping someone can help her mother?

But neither Jiang Shen nor she could do anything about this matter, and everything had to be left to the doctor.

Breakfast time ended quickly. Although his mood became particularly complicated later, Ren Fenghe still ate until his belly was full.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Shen was ready to take Ren Fenghe out.

He put on his all-black suit again and went out to buy New Year's goods with Ren Fenghe, who was wearing colorful clothes.

As soon as the car drove onto the street, Jiang Shen said, "There are a lot fewer people."

As the Spring Festival is approaching, many workers have asked for leave in advance to return to their hometowns, and the whole city has become much emptier.

Jiang Shen followed Ren Fenghe's idea and drove to the unmanned supermarket.

Most of the people who buy New Year's goods are the elderly, and the design of unmanned supermarkets invisibly blocks the elderly who cannot keep up with the high-tech era.

So when they come to the unmanned supermarket, the unmanned supermarket is not just an unmanned supermarket, but a truly unmanned supermarket.

This unmanned supermarket is very large and stocks are kept up to date, even stocking up on New Year decorations such as couplets that we thought might not be available.

Jiang Shen took Ren Fenghe to go shopping in the unmanned supermarket. The originally planned list became a piece of waste paper when they actually arrived at the supermarket. He bought whatever he saw.

This time, he not only bought decorations, but also fruits, and put all the snacks that Jiang Shen didn't want to buy into the shopping cart.

Looking at the shopping carts that were piled up into a small mountain, Jiang Shen fell into silence unconsciously.

He turned his head to look at Ren Fenghe, who was squatting beside the cabinet and picking snacks with great interest, and said, "You can't buy snacks anymore."

Success resulted in Ren Fenghe's cheeks puffing up.

Ren Fenghe stood up naturally and said, "Then I'll go pick out a gift for my mother."

"Can I walk around here by myself?" she asked again.

Jiang Shen looked around and saw that there was indeed no one around. He said, "You can only wander around this area by yourself. After wandering around, come with me to the next area. You must not sneak out."

Ren Fenghe nodded repeatedly.

With Jiang Shen's permission, she began to look through the containers one by one, selecting gifts for Zhang Jingchun.

On the other side, Jiang Shen was tidying up the shopping cart, taking out the extra snacks and putting them back in their original places.

On the way to put the snacks back in their place, he suddenly stopped pushing the shopping cart forward, then took a few steps back with the shopping cart and turned to look at the shelf beside him.

Thinking of Ren Fenghe mentioning his teammates from time to time, he took a few boxes of items from the shelf and put them in the shopping cart without hesitation, and then inexplicably hid them deep in the shopping cart.

After doing this, he continued what he was doing.

After he put away the extra snacks, he saw Ren Fenghe standing next to the separate container between them waiting for him to come back.

Ren Fenghe noticed at a glance that the items in the shopping cart had changed a lot. Unlike Jiang Shen imagined, she did not throw a tantrum or beg for the snacks to be returned. Instead, she glanced at the shopping cart and looked away.

Ren Fenghe likes to eat snacks. Who doesn’t like delicious snacks? But she wasn't a real child, yelling and making a fuss because she didn't have snacks.

Besides, there are more important things now.

Ren Fenghe put his hands behind his back and pulled them apart, his expression showing complete distress and confusion.

She thought about the several things she had just seen that could be used as gifts, and always felt that this one was not good and that one was not good enough. Finally, she tried hard to choose the most suitable one among them.

"Can you help me see if this is suitable as a gift?" Ren Fenghe asked.

Jiang Shen was stunned and said, "Of course."

Ren Fenghe led him to a container with many blind boxes in front of it. She pointed to one of the blind boxes and said, "Can you buy all of these for mom?"

Jiang Shen looked up at the blind box display cabinet at the top.

It was a doll in the shape of a kitten. There were six dolls in a set. One was concentrating on eating a delicious meal, one was drinking milk tea, one was reading a book with great enjoyment, one was sleeping sweetly on the bed, one was exercising with dumbbells, and one was smelling the fragrance of the flowers next to the flower bed.

This is her wish for Zhang Tuanyuan’s mother.

Get well soon. Only when you get better can you do everything you want to do like this cat.

Please get well soon, so that Zhang Tuanyuan won’t ask for help again.
