The slight pain in her lower abdomen reminded Shen Yu Nan of a similar scene from the past.
During the same special period, Pei Wu thoughtfully prepared brown sugar water, heat patches, painkillers, and other items for him.
Shen Yu Nan paused slightly with his chopsticks, his face flushing instantly. After a second or two, he resumed his actions. Pei Wu's gaze fell on Shen Yu Nan as he watched him lower his eyes and stir the white porridge in his bowl with his chopsticks.
Pei Wu noticed that the other person's face was even paler than yesterday.
"Are you feeling unwell? You look terrible," Pei Wu asked again.
Shen Yunan only snapped out of his reverie upon hearing Pei Wu's voice. "I just didn't sleep well last night."
Pei Wu nodded after hearing Shen Yu Nan's answer. "It's still early. After you finish breakfast, you can sleep a little longer. I'll take him to kindergarten later." Pei Wu was referring to Pei Nian. As she spoke, Pei Wu reached out and touched the little boy's fluffy, soft hair.
"And this, I'll give it to the kindergarten teacher later, today's the deadline, right?" Pei Wu took out the piece of paper that Pei Nian had left with Diana yesterday from her pocket.
Pei Wu's name was already signed at the bottom of the paper, next to Shen Yu Nan's name, very close to each other.
"..." Pei Nian's beautiful eyes seemed to have a bright light, but he did not reach out to take the paper from Pei Wu's hand. Instead, he looked at Shen Yu Nan and asked for his opinion. Only when Shen Yu Nan nodded slightly did he smile and take the paper from Pei Wu's hand.
Then he whispered "Thank you" to Pei Wu.
Pei Wu raised an eyebrow slightly as she looked at the little girl in front of her who looked very similar to herself. Just yesterday, the little girl had been calling her "Mom" repeatedly, but today she was timid in front of her.
After breakfast, Pei Nian very considerately prepared to clean up the dishes and take them to the kitchen.
Shen Yu'nan stopped him, saying, "You don't need to do these things. Go change your clothes and pack your schoolbag. The teacher said yesterday that you're going to do crafts today."
In the mountainous area where there was a strong preference for girls over boys, Shen Yu'nan had endless chores since he could remember. Even though his sister was idle all day, all the household chores fell on his shoulders. He even had to squeeze in time to read a book from his sleep time.
"good."
Pei Nian is still wearing pajamas, but kindergarten requires students to wear uniforms.
"I can handle this, you go and rest."
"Does Miss Pei know how to wash dishes?"
Pei Wu nodded. "Yes."
A faint smile appeared on Shen Yu'nan's face. "I'll help you instead."
Shen Yu Nan was well aware of Pei Wu's dishwashing skills.
The final division of labor was that Pei Wu was responsible for washing the dishes, and Shen Yu Nan was responsible for wiping the water stains off the tableware. In the process, their hands accidentally touched. For some reason, the two, who were clearly husband and wife in name and in fact, felt an awkwardness after their accidental touch. In the quiet surroundings, it seemed that they could hear each other's heartbeats.
Shen Yu'nan's throat bobbed slightly; despite having been injected with inhibitors, his heart was still beating frighteningly fast.
As Shen Yuhuan's delicate Adam's apple bobbed, Pei Wu subconsciously pursed her beautiful lips. A flood of images flashed through her mind—memories of her time with Shao Sang. For some reason, the images shifted, revealing intimate moments she had shared with Shen Yuhuan.
Shen Yu Nan was born weak. He was quite tall, but thin. Yet, in her memory, she abused this frail Shen Yu Nan, forcing him to please her and even using drugs to arouse him. Even so, despair and resentment flashed in his eyes, as if sharp knives were viciously cutting into 'himself'.
