"Oh." Shen Ning lowered his head and asked, "Vice President Leng, are...my children okay?"
"Fortunately, Coco, Dingding and Xiaoxiao are becoming more sensible and well-behaved. However, they miss Mommy very much and often ask about you in front of President Li." Lengxue said with a double entendre and his tone was very polite.
Shen Ning's heart ached when he heard this, and a look of pain appeared on his face.
He looked at her coldly: "The children just miss their mommy, that's not bad, but Mr. Li is not so good."
"What's wrong with him?" Shen Ning couldn't hide the tension on his face.
"Boss Chen, can't you see that Boss Li has lost a lot of weight? He looks a lot more haggard." Leng Xue said with great sadness, "This past year, after you left, Boss Li has been taking care of the children all by himself. He's so busy with work every day, and yet he still has to personally take care of three children, cook for them, and put them to bed. It's really hard."
"Don't you have a babysitter?"
"Madam, you are also the children's mother. You should know that a nanny can never replace mommy and daddy. What's more, you had just left, and the children missed you very much. They cried every night and asked Mr. Li for mommy. Mr. Li could only spend more time with them to ease their longing. He is a grown man, and it is really hard for him." Lengxue's face was solemn and his voice was heavy.
Shen Ning's heart was stabbed again, and he felt a piercing pain and a sour feeling in his nose.
Sudden
She felt a heavy sense of guilt towards Coco, Dingding and Xiaoxiao.
"Madam, Mr. Li has not had a single Saturday or Sunday off this year. He has been doing everything himself, both at work and in life. He tries his best to accompany the children every day, just to make up for the discomfort of their mother not being around. He works overtime until late at night every day. I can't bear to see him. He often skips meals, but no matter what, he ensures that the children have the life they deserve and tries his best to let them live a good life." Leng Xue continued to confide.
The tears in Shen Ning’s eyes were in her eyes, and she bit her lips desperately.
"Madam, please come back. If Mr. Li is wrong, he has paid the price for so many years. You can't let the children grow up with their daddy without their mommy. The children are still young and need their mommy right now. It's only a year. If it takes too long, the children will really forget their mommy. You don't want that, do you?" Leng Xue continued to persuade her with both reason and emotion.
Shen Ning lowered his head and said nothing.
"Mr. Chen, have you really forgotten Mr. Li? Mr. Li is very devoted to you. In the past year when you were away, he has never had any scandals. With his strength and status, as long as he wanted, there would be plenty of women trying to get into his bed, but he has never had the slightest improper thought. You are the only one who is devoted to him in his heart. This kind of true love is rare. You have to see his heart..." Leng Xue continued to assist.
Shen Ning pursed his lips.
"Cold-blooded, what are you talking about?" At this time the door opened and Li Zhenting walked in with a mobile phone in his hand, his face expressionless.
"Mr. Li, Madam..." Leng Xue immediately stood up.
"Don't talk nonsense. What do you know? Get out now." Li Zhenting said coldly.
"Okay." Leng Xue agreed and looked at Shen Ning again: "Madam, please think about it carefully. What I said is true."
"Cold-blooded..." Li Zhenting gritted his teeth.
Leng Xue then lowered his head and hurried away.
After Leng Xue left, only Li Zhenting and Shen Ning were left in the lounge, and the atmosphere was very subtle.
Li Zhenting just glanced at Shen Ning, walked over, picked up the briefcase and was about to leave.
"Zhen Ting." Seeing that he was about to leave, Shen Ning hurriedly stood up, "Keke, Ding Ding, which school is Xiao Xiao in now?"
"Tsk, President Shen." Li Zhenting sneered after a while, "You still remember them? I thought you had forgotten them."
“No, Zhenting, I went to Blue Whale Kindergarten to look for them as soon as I got home, but they no longer go to school there.” Shen Ning hurriedly explained.
Li Zhenting's heart ached, and he sneered: "A mother doesn't know which school her child attends. Who can you blame? If you cared more about them, it wouldn't be like this."
After a pause, he continued, "They are now in Class 5 of the Imperial Capital No. 1 Primary School."
After saying that, he strode outside, leaving behind only a gust of cold wind.
“…” Shen Ning looked at his back, tears could no longer be held back and she lay on the table sobbing.
Coco, Ding Ding, Xiao Xiao, Mommy is sorry for you, but there is nothing Mommy can do. There is a thorn between your daddy and me, and it can never be removed. You will understand Mommy's difficulties when you grow up.
In the corridor, Li Zhenting stood against the wall, listening to the suppressed and painful cries from inside, his heart knotted in his chest.
Just now, when he saw her, he almost couldn't help but rush up to hug her.
His heart fluttered when she called him.
For more than a year, he dreamed of her every day, worried that she was suffering in the United States, afraid that she was bullied, and even more afraid that she would have nightmares at night without his arms. Countless times, he wanted to take the children to the United States to find her, but he restrained himself.
Because he saw that she was getting better and better. She became the daughter of the Lin family and lived a life of luxury every day. Lin Zhenxun gave her unprecedented care, and her career developed greatly. She didn't even need his secret support behind the scenes.
Her news would occasionally appear on the American news network, and every time, he would pay close attention to it. It turned out that he even took the children to the Shaw villa to find Aunt Dong, in order to reassure her and let her know that the children were doing well.
Gradually, he felt that she didn't need to know these things. Perhaps she had forgotten him and the children. Feeling disheartened, he never went there again.
