Chapter 26 When did you give birth to my son?
They looked at each other for a moment.
Lu Fengqing asked expressionlessly, "Are you going to perform moaning in bed at the kindergarten?"
For once, Gu Suixing was speechless for a few seconds.
After a long pause, he said, "This kind of R-rated performance is enough for me to see alone."
Lu Fengqing told him to get lost.
Gu Suixing: "Where is the bathroom?"
Lu Fengqing pointed in a direction, ignored him, and picked up the microphone to continue singing.
As I was singing, I suddenly felt a bit bored.
She knew that she was tone-deaf and had never developed the skill of "singing" in her twenty-odd years of life.
But besides singing, she didn't know what else she could perform.
I can't exactly go on stage and write a piece of code for the kids.
Lu Fengqing sat cross-legged on the sofa, watching with a bored expression as the old man, dressed in a bath towel, came out of the bathroom, walked to the open kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and after browsing for a while, took out a bottle of mineral water.
He unscrewed the bottle cap and tilted his head back to gulp down most of it.
A trickle of water spilled from the corner of his lips, slid down his chin, past his collarbone, past his abs... and finally disappeared into the bath towel.
Four words came to Lu Fengqing's mind: "A feast for the eyes".
Seeing that Gu Suixing was about to turn around, Lu Fengqing quickly looked away.
Gu Suixing: "Why did you stop singing?"
Lu Fengqing slumped her shoulders dejectedly. "Forget it, let's just let the kid go."
Gu Suixing picked up the laptop from the coffee table, flipped through the playlist, randomly selected a song to play, and asked, "Didn't you study piano?"
Lu Fengqing: "That happened so many years ago, I've long forgotten about it."
Gu Suixing pointed to the grand piano over there, "Bought it just to display?"
Lu Fengqing said, "...Yes."
Gu Suixing tapped the space bar with his index finger to pause the music, got up, walked to the piano, sat down, and placed both hands on the keys.
A moment later, melodious music flowed from her fingertips.
Children from families like theirs are usually required to learn one or two skills when they are young. She followed the trend and learned ballroom dancing for a while when she was young. Once, she was dancing a duet with a little boy in a training class when Gu Suixing, who came to find her, saw them... and that was the end of that.
This girl has been beautiful since she was little. With her sweet and soft voice, she said, "Sister Niannian, stop dancing and play the piano with me, okay? I love being with you the most." Her adopted sister nodded and said "Okay, okay, okay" on the spot.
It had nothing to do with love. I was too young to understand love back then. It was just that this guy was too domineering, and I didn't want her to play with other people.
Time flies. The little boy who used to follow her around all day, calling her "Sister Nian Nian," has grown up so much.
Not only is she not as cute as she was when she was little, but her temper has also become increasingly difficult.
It's truly disheartening.
After she finished playing the piece, Gu Suixing looked up at her and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
“I’m thinking,” Lu Fengqing said slowly, “when will you be able to call me ‘Sister Niannian’ again?”
Under her expectant gaze, Gu Suixing parted his thin lips slightly: "Don't dream."
Lu Fengqing looked disappointed. "You've turned into a dog."
The changed dog stretched out its arm, pulled her over, and hugged her on its lap.
The man's unique aura quickly enveloped her. Lu Fengqing paused for two seconds, then pretended to struggle a couple of times.
The man's emotionless voice rang in her ear: "If you twist it again, the towel will fall off."
Lu Fengqing immediately dared not move.
Feeling a little resentful, I blurted out, "So what if it fell?"
Gu Suixing told her expressionlessly what would happen next: "Take your pants off."
Lu Fengqing fell silent instantly.
After a brief silence, she spoke again: "Actually, I can sit next to you; the bench is very long."
This time, Gu Suixing took her advice and let go.
Having not played the piano for so long, I not only need to readjust but also practice to improve my proficiency.
By the time Lu Fengqing developed muscle memory, it was already past 3 a.m., and her mind was filled with doromifaso.
After taking a quick shower, I collapsed onto the bed and immediately fell into a deep sleep.
Gu Suixing was sitting on the headboard with a laptop on her lap. Without even lifting her head, she pulled the blanket over her.
Nothing was said that night.
When Lu Fengqing woke up, it was already broad daylight.
There was no one left in the room.
After washing up, Lu Fengqing walked out of the living room and was taken aback when she saw a breakfast set on the dining table.
In an instant, it felt like I was back in my freshman year of college, during that brief period of living together.
Back then, every morning when she woke up, regardless of whether he had gone out or not, he would always prepare breakfast for her and put it on the table.
As time goes by, people change.
She thought he had changed, but it seemed like he hadn't changed much.
Lu Fengqing opened her phone while eating breakfast. About an hour ago, Gu Suixing had sent her a message.
[XXXXXXX: I need to go out for a while.]
Lu Fengqing scoffed, thinking to herself, "If you're so capable, then don't answer." She clicked on his profile picture and changed his nickname to "Philanthropist."
After finishing breakfast, Lu Fengqing glanced at the time, took out her suitcase, and started packing.
Lu Fengqing arrived at the kindergarten right on time, just as the Children's Day activities had begun.
Many of the children's parents have already arrived.
Lu Fengqing took off her sunglasses, ignoring the stares from those around her, and scanned her surroundings before finding Rui Rui on the small stool at the very back.
"Rui Rui".
Rui Rui looked up, saw Lu Fengqing, and immediately ran over and hugged Lu Fengqing's leg, "Auntie."
Lu Fengqing put her index finger to her lips, winked at him, and whispered, "Today is Mommy's day."
Rui Rui's eyes lit up even more, and she threw herself into Lu Fengqing's arms, calling out in a clear voice, "Mommy!"
Lu Fengqing gently patted his little head, "Come on, let's go to your seat."
As soon as the two sat down, a little girl with pigtails peeked over.
"Lu Chenrui, is this your mother? Your mother is so beautiful."
The woman holding the little girl in her arms asked, feigning displeasure, "Am I not pretty?"
The little girl immediately said, "Mommy is the prettiest."
The woman smiled with satisfaction, glanced at Rui Rui sitting upright on the small stool, and said to Lu Fengqing, "Your son is so handsome, just like you."
Lu Fengqing glanced at the little girl and said with a smile, "Your daughter is very beautiful too."
"This little girl is quite naughty." The woman affectionately tapped her daughter's forehead. "If you don't discipline her for three days, she'll be climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles."
The other children in the class also gathered around, staring at Lu Fengqing with curiosity.
"Auntie, you're so beautiful. Are you Lu Chenrui's mother?"
"Lu Chenrui's father is also good-looking; I've met him before."
"Why didn't Lu Chenrui's father come today?"
Lu Fengqing answered their questions one by one: "Hello, I'm Lu Chenrui's mother. Rui Rui's father didn't have time to come..."
Rui Rui held Lu Feng Qing's hand and stood quietly to the side, her big eyes filled with affection as she looked at her.
...
The kindergarten prepared many activities today. After the principal, teachers, and parent representatives gave speeches, it was the children's turn to perform on stage by class.
Rui Rui's class was preparing to dance, but Rui Rui didn't participate and sat in the audience with Lu Fengqing to watch.
Halfway through the movie, I suddenly received a call from Gu Suixing.
A deep, languid male voice came through the receiver: "Still in kindergarten?"
Rui Rui tugged at Lu Fengqing's hand, "Mommy, go pee."
"Go ahead." Lu Fengqing took the small fan from Rui Rui and answered Gu Suixing, "It's just the children's turn to perform. The parents' performances are next, followed by parent-child games. It'll probably take several more hours. If you're in a hurry, you can go ahead on your own..."
"Mom?" Gu Suixing interrupted her with a smile, "When did you give birth to a son for me?"
