Chapter 675 Conversation between Father and Son
Sui Sui was stunned for a moment: "Looking for Daddy?"
Jiang Ruan nodded: "Mm."
Sui Sui Ba blinked and stared at her, even circling around her out of excessive suspicion.
Jiang Ruan asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
"Why did you suddenly think of going to see him?" Sui Sui knew their general situation and naturally understood that her mother was unlikely to go to her father on her own initiative. "Did something happen to Dad or did he threaten you?"
"I want to talk to him about something." Jiang Ruan didn't tell the truth until the very end.
Although Assistant Jiang told her that Huo Zhizhou had been eating these past few days and hadn't vomited.
But the person in the photo still looks a bit haggard.
“No.” Sui Sui’s mind worked quickly, and her voice was soft and somewhat cute. “You’re lying.”
Jiang Ruan's thoughts wandered.
Just as I was thinking of what excuse to use.
Sui Sui continued, "But it doesn't matter, I'll go if you go."
Jiang Ruan ruffled his hair: "Thank you, baby."
Sui Sui smiled, her round face was very cute: "Then when do we set off?"
“You have your second day off,” Jiang Ruan told him, “Mo Mo and Tang Bai will be coming with us. The journey might take a while, so make sure you get plenty of rest these next few days.”
"Mmm." Sui Sui nodded.
The matter is settled.
Jiang Ruan told him to get some rest.
As soon as she tucked him in, Sui Sui looked at her with his round eyes and said, "Mommy."
Jiang Ruan tucked the blanket around him: "Hmm?"
“If your father is forcing you to go, ignore him.” Sui Sui didn’t know what had happened and could only guess at various possibilities. “Don’t wrong yourself.”
My mother had a very difficult time when she divorced my father.
He doesn't want this to happen again.
He didn't want his mother to make sacrifices for him.
“Your maternal grandmother knows about this, and she agreed to it.” Jiang Ruan gently stroked his head.
Sui Sui was somewhat surprised: "Grandma knows."
Jiang Ruan: "Mm."
Sui Sui was instantly relieved, a sweet smile on her face: "Then I'm relieved."
"You rascal," Jiang Ruan said, feigning anger, and gently pinched his nose before getting up. "Go to sleep."
Sui Sui nodded.
Jiang Ruan didn't bother him anymore, and turned off the lights and closed the door for him when she left.
After hearing the footsteps fade into the distance, Sui Sui's round eyes darted around. After thinking it over, she took out her children's watch, opened Huo Zhizhou's contact information, and sent him a voice message: "Uncle Huo, have you come up with some kind of trick again?"
It was still afternoon where Huo Zhizhou was.
He had just finished processing two files when he saw Sui Sui's message.
To his question, he simply responded with a question mark: [?]
Sui Sui was too lazy to type, so she sent a voice message: "If you hadn't used some trickery, why would Mommy have suddenly decided to bring me here to see you?"
In short.
This stirred up a storm in Huo Zhizhou's heart.
He tapped the voice message several times, and when he was sure Jiang Ruan was coming to find him, he asked, feigning composure, "Are you coming over?"
Every year, her brow furrows slightly.
What's the meaning?
It wasn't Daddy calling Mommy?
Just as I was thinking this, Huo Zhizhou called.
Sui Sui glanced at the closed door, but still chose to answer the call.
"When are you coming?" Huo Zhizhou's voice was deep and steady, carrying a sense of reassurance. "I'll have Jiang Yu and the others pick you up from the airport."
Sui Sui lied: "I don't know."
Huo Zhizhou remained silent.
Silence fell between them.
The air suddenly became still.
After a while.
Huo Zhizhou spoke first: "Tell me when you come. If you don't want to tell me, you can contact Jiang Yu. It's not like China here. It's safer for them to pick you up."
Sui Sui: "Three or four days."
Huo Zhizhou didn't react for a moment: "What?"
"We should be coming in three or four days." After much consideration, Sui Sui decided not to hide it from her. After all, her mother's safety was the most important thing, and besides, her grandmother had agreed, so it seemed to be settled.
Huo Zhizhou tightened his grip on his phone slightly.
It feels unreal.
"Are you... really sure your mommy will be here in three or four days?"
"If that's what you're asking, I won't come," Sui Sui said haughtily. "After all, you don't really miss me."
Huo Zhizhou chuckled softly.
Sui Sui snorted coldly.
“It’s better if you don’t come.” If he could, he really didn’t want Sui Sui to see him like this. “It takes quite a long time to come from China, and your small body might not be able to handle it.”
"Who do you think you are?" Sui Sui said.
Huo Zhizhou: "So you want to come over?"
Sui Sui: "I don't want to."
Huo Zhizhou, as always, was a manipulative man: "Hmm, then I won't come over."
Sui Sui: "..."
Sui Sui angrily rolled over.
Stinky dad!
All I do is annoy him.
“If you’re not coming, then you’re not coming.” He started to act arrogantly. “Tomorrow morning I’ll tell Mommy that you have someone over there, and you told me not to come looking for you because you’re afraid your new partner will mind that you have a child.”
Huo Zhizhou: "..."
Huo Zhizhou didn't expect him to say that.
It's okay to joke around with him with other people, but it's hard to say about this one.
Although Ruan Ruan knew what kind of person he was, she would definitely suspect that he had said something hurtful to Sui Sui because Sui Sui was always sensible and would not say such things for no reason.
"Your ability to make up stories is getting better and better," Huo Zhizhou said.
Sui Sui: "You started first."
Huo Zhizhou: "When?"
Sui Sui: "Many times."
Huo Zhizhou: "?"
Sui Sui spoke in a childish tone, but her words were earnest: "Many times you make up your thoughts. You really want to, but you never tell the truth."
In short.
Huo Zhizhou was momentarily at a loss for how to react.
“The more you don’t want to see me, the more I’ll come,” Sui Sui’s words continued. “I just want to make you uncomfortable.”
A gentle light flashed in Huo Zhizhou's eyes.
I feel warm inside because of this thoughtful child.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Sui Sui asked. "Are you really afraid that my coming over will ruin your plans with the other aunties?"
Huo Zhizhou: "There are no other aunties."
Sui Sui: "Oh."
Huo Zhizhou thought of his appearance and parted his thin lips slightly: "Sui Sui".
Sui Sui feigned arrogance: "What?"
Huo Zhizhou: "I miss you so much."
Sui Sui paused in her hand holding the phone watch, opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
My dad has always been sarcastic and argumentative.
Although he would occasionally tell him that he loved him and cared about him, he never admitted defeat when they argued.
this time……
"It's my fault for not contacting you enough during this time. When you come over, I'll take you to play something fun." Huo Zhizhou didn't know what would happen after Jiang Ruan arrived, and naturally, he didn't know how much longer he could live.
He wanted to tell Sui Sui about his feelings for her within the limited time he had.
That way, even if he's gone someday in the future, he won't have any regrets.
