On this side, Wen Yu reached a silent reconciliation with his children.
At the corner between the second and third floors, the dim light reflected two figures, Wen Shuting and Yu Jiming.
The old couple originally wanted to visit Sui Sui, but they bumped into each other face to face, and then accidentally overheard the conversation between Wen Yu and the others.
Seeing that the path to Suisui's room was blocked, the old couple returned to their room with regret, but talked about the misunderstandings over the years.
Yu Jiming sighed:
"I didn't know that the kids had always misunderstood Wen Yu..."
Wen Shuting glanced at him and tutted:
"Of course you don't know! Wen Yu's stubbornness is just like you! If he was like Xiao Mo, and looked like me, how could there be so many misunderstandings and conflicts, and make his children sad for so many years? Humph, now he has come to his senses and knows how to apologize."
"Like, like me?"
Yu Jiming pointed at himself with a look of disbelief.
It seems to be saying: Do you want to think more carefully about who you look like?
Wen Shuting said confidently:
"Of course it looks like you!"
That firm tone left Yu Jiming speechless.
Decades of married life also made him realize that arguing was pointless.
"Okay, okay, like me, like me..."
Yu Jiming shook his head helplessly and lay down under the quilt to prepare for sleep.
Wen Shuting leaned against the head of the bed:
"Can you sleep?"
"I can't sleep."
Yu Jiming turned over and muttered,
"I don't know if Sui Sui slept well or if he kicked off the quilt."
Wen Shuting didn't respond, but her thoughts were similar to Yu Jiming's.
The two took a short nap and woke up again after seven o'clock.
I changed my clothes impatiently and went downstairs, thinking I would see Sui Sui, but in the end I only saw Wen Yu and others yawning tiredly.
Perhaps the conversation at dawn cleared up the misunderstandings of the past few years and made each of them unable to sleep for a long time.
Thanks to their good genes, they don’t have dark circles under their eyes even though they stay up almost all night.
Wen Shuting was well aware of the situation of these unreliable juniors and asked:
"Where's Sui Sui?"
"Not yet."
"……oh."
No one said to wake Sui Sui up.
Everyone was very careful when treating the little princess who had just returned home, for fear of accidentally hurting Sui Sui.
Wen Shuting straightened his expression:
"I've thought about it."
Everyone perked up and listened to Wen Shuting's words.
Including Yu Jiming, they all showed confused and puzzled expressions.
What is this trying to say?
Wen Shuting looked around calmly:
"When Sui Sui comes back, you can live here."
As soon as the words fell, they were immediately opposed!
Wen Yu said flatly: "Impossible!"
Chu Yan's smile was stiff: "I don't think it's appropriate."
Wen Mo frowned slightly: "Grandma, I don't think it's appropriate."
Wen Chi was the most vehement: "No, no, of course not!"
The only Yu Jiming, after a brief moment of hesitation, immediately chose to stand on the same front with his wife!
"I think it's great! Perfect! It couldn't be better!"
To this end, Yu Jiming specifically listed several advantages:
The house is spacious, convenient for playing every year;
The old couple is basically retired and can be with Sui Sui 24 hours a day;
Children who haven't been home for years find it easier to feel safe when they're around older people...
It sounds like that!
But how could others give in so easily?
Wen Yu said decisively:
"Nothing could be better than staying with my father. Besides, are the elders really in retirement?"
Wen Shuting dealt with a lot of company affairs yesterday and never gave up his duties as chairman.
As a returning professor, Yu Jiming also has classes to teach this month.
retire?
who?
Wen Shuting folded his arms, looking calm and composed:
"Isn't this you?"
Wen Yu pursed his lips tightly:
"Anyway, I don't agree."
The atmosphere became tense.
Until Wen Chi muttered:
"I'm thinking so much...I'm not sure whether Sui Sui will agree or not."
Everyone's face froze, as if the truth had pierced their hearts, and then they looked at Wen Chi with a chill.
But... that's true, everything depends on Suisui's wishes.
The few people who were arguing at first were instantly discouraged and wanted to wait for Sui Sui to get up.
Before I knew it, it was eight o'clock.
No one left, and no one did anything else.
Just sitting there, wasting time.
Rather than waiting for the years, it is better to say that they are waiting for the regrets they have missed for many years...
Sudden.
A small head popped out from the railing of the second-floor corridor, overlooking the first-floor living room from mid-air:
"elder brother?"
Wen Chi instantly became energetic, and all the fatigue from not sleeping all night was swept away!
"Hey! My brother is here!"
This powerful response almost made the house shake.
Sui Sui's eyes widened in shock: What happened to my brother?
Wen Chi raised his chin proudly, walked up, and said as he walked:
"Did you sleep well? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?..."
His voice gradually faded away and went up.
The five people were left in a stagnant atmosphere.
Wen Shuting slowly breathed a sigh of relief:
“We have a long way to go.”
Everyone has this thought in their mind.
On the second floor, Wen Chi led Sui Sui into the room:
"Why don't you wash up?"
“I don’t know where it is!”
Sui Sui is so innocent.
Wen Chi then remembered that this was Sui Sui's first time here and he was not familiar with the environment.
So I took Sui Sui into the bathroom and helped her get out a small toothbrush and a small towel.
I asked the housekeeper to prepare these yesterday.
When Wen Chi was squeezing toothpaste for Sui Sui, Sui Sui said excitedly:
"Brother! Did you give me the little puppy on my bed? It's so cute and beautiful! Can I take it home?"
Year after year, I still have the mentality of a guest.
Even if a puppy toy appeared in her bed, she had to ask her brother before taking it away.
Wen Chi's original joy disappeared without a trace.
Because he realized a very important problem -
How can I make Sui Sui accept her identity?
"Years."
Wen Chi put down his toothbrush and toothpaste for the moment, looking solemn and cautious, considering how to start his conversation.
This attitude infected Sui Sui, making her nervous.
"W-what's the matter?"
"Remember what we told you yesterday?"
"What?"
Sui Sui completely forgot about it.
Maybe she didn't take it seriously at all.
Wen Chi had no choice but to squat down, look at Sui Sui at eye level, and repeat:
"Sister Wen Mo took your blood earlier and did a paternity test. Suisui, you are my long-lost sister, and my family downstairs are also your family, your father, brother, sister, grandfather, and grandmother."
The smile on Sui Sui's face slowly disappeared.
If there were other people around, Sui Sui might not tell the truth.
However, the person in front of her was her brother, her brother Xiaochi, whom she trusted most in the world.
"But……"
Sui Sui twisted her two fingers around and around until they became a twist.
Finally, I mustered up the courage,
"Brother, I'm not a human being."
