Long Ting nodded, not quite understanding.
"Mom Mu, can I stay at home longer this time when I come back?"
Long Ting had long regarded Fengchen Villa as his home.
No, wherever Mu Qing is, he regards that place as his home.
He didn't remember when he was picked up by Mu's mother.
However, his master had mentioned to him that he was picked up by Mu's mother. He didn't know who his biological parents were, so he was told to study hard, practice martial arts, and learn medicine, so that he could find his biological parents in the future.
Long Ting is very smart, but he is still young and doesn’t understand why he has to study hard and practice hard to find his biological parents?
Why do we want to find our biological parents?
Doesn’t it matter that he has Mother Mu and Uncle Ye?
His master and his uncle were also very kind to him.
Long Ting is now attached to the people around him, and he has no impression of his closest relatives.
Mu Qing and others knew Long Ting's life experience, but they kept it from Long Ting for the time being and did not tell him that he actually carried a deep blood feud.
After all, Long Ting is still a three-year-old child, and Mu Qing hopes that his childhood will be carefree.
"Now I want to stay at home for a few more days."
Mu Qing teased her adopted son.
Ever since the little guy became familiar with the miracle doctor, he has liked to stick to the old man. After following the miracle doctor back, he was even more reluctant to leave and didn't want to come back.
Now he actually says he wants to stay at home for a few more days.
Long Ting said honestly, "Because I have younger brothers and sisters at home."
Mu Qing said with amusement: "I thought you were thinking about your mother and were feeling touched, but it turns out that you were thinking about your younger brothers and sisters."
Long Ting immediately hugged Mu Qing's neck and said coquettishly, "Mother Mu, I miss you too, and Uncle Ye too."
Of course, what he missed most was his younger brother and sister.
so cute.
Mu Qing hugged the little guy and said softly, "This is your home. You are free to come back whenever you want and stay for as long as you want."
"Mom Mu, I really miss you."
"Mom misses you too."
Long Ting loosened his arms around Mu Qing's neck, leaned back, looked at her, and asked, "Mom Mu, is this true? Will you no longer want Long Ting now that you have a younger sibling?"
"How could that be? You are my mother's baby. No matter how many brothers and sisters you have, you are still my mother's baby."
She picked up Long Ting, and from the moment he called her mom, she told herself that she would fulfill her responsibilities as a mother during Long Ting's growing years.
I never thought that after having my own children, I would not have adopted a child.
"Mom Mu."
Long Ting looked relieved and snuggled in Mu Qing's arms and acted coquettishly again.
Mu Qing played with the three children for the entire afternoon.
In the evening, she was going to have dinner at Fengchen Hotel. Li Ke was treating her to a dinner due to the opening of his new restaurant. Since she was Li Ke's number one supporter, she naturally had to go to the dinner.
Mu Qing didn't plan to take her two children to the hotel because they were still young, so she took Long Ting with her.
Li Ke arrived at Fengchen Hotel first and met her stepbrother Chu Mu by chance.
"Li Ke."
Chu Mu saw Li Ke and took the initiative to say hello.
The two of them disagreed with the request made by Li Ke's mother, but Chu Mu still admired this non-blood-related sister.
"Brother Chu."
After knowing that her biological mother actually wanted to match her with Chu Mu, Li Ke changed the way she addressed Chu Mu to "big brother", which was equivalent to reminding her mother that, in name, she should call Chu Mu "big brother".
Neither she nor Chu Mu had any idea of getting married. Mom, please don't make such a fuss. If you ruin your current happy and peaceful business, you will regret it.
Li Ke knew that her mother still had no job after remarrying. She had been out of the workplace for more than ten years and was old, so it would be difficult for her to find a new job. Since her stepfather could support his wife and children, Li Ke did not say anything.
Originally, after the mother remarried, the contact between mother and daughter became less and less, sometimes there was no phone call for a year or two.
Her divorced parents remarried, each had their own family, and had new children. Li Ke felt that only she and her younger siblings were a family.
However, she still hopes that her mother can maintain her current life.
"Well, are you alone? Are you here to meet a friend?"
Chu Mu saw Li Ke and Jun Li, so he asked.
During his business trip to City A, Chu Mu privately inquired and learned that Jun Li treated Li Ke very well.
"My beauty salon is open today. I'm treating everyone to a meal. Please arrive before the guests."
The store manager and the beautician will be here soon to help her entertain the guests.
"Your beauty salon opened today, but you didn't tell me, brother. I didn't receive any news and couldn't send you a flower basket."
Chu Mu hadn't noticed that Li Ke's beauty salon opened today.
He doesn't go to beauty salons, and he never reads or pays attention to those beauty-related flyers.
Li Ke smiled and said, "I didn't throw a big banquet. I just invited a few friends and people who have helped me a lot. Brother Chu, are you going out now? If you have nothing to do, let's have dinner together?"
Chu Mu thought for a moment and said, "I don't have anything to do. I just want to go out to the night market in City A. Okay, if you treat me to a meal, I'll definitely honor you."
As he spoke, he took out his wallet, took out the cash from it, and handed it to Li Ke, saying, "Li Ke, this is a gift from big brother to you. I don't have any red envelopes with me, so just leave it like this. We are brother and sister, so there's no need to be so fussy."
Li Ke quickly refused.
Chu Mu glared at him and said seriously, "Li Ke, do you think the gift money given by big brother is too little? I will go out and get some more cash for you right away."
"No, no, no, Brother Chu, I am, I'm sorry."
Chu Mu took one of her hands and stuffed the wad of money into her hand. "This is a gift from big brother. As long as you don't mind it being too little, it's fine. You don't have to be so polite to big brother. No matter how unfamiliar we are, we are still brother and sister."
Nominal siblings.
Li Ke hesitated for a moment, then accepted the gift Chu Mu gave her.
She will also have to return the gifts to the guests when they have dinner later.
As a return gift to her elder brother, she should return a little more of the gift money.
They are brother and sister, but they have too little interaction, and they are nominally brother and sister without blood relationship. She really feels embarrassed to accept so many gifts from Chu Mu.
"Thank you, brother."
"There's no need to be so polite between siblings. Where is your beauty salon? I'll come over and take a look someday when I'm free."
Li Ke quickly took out one of his business cards and handed it to Chu Mu.
"Brother Chu, this is my business card. It has my phone number, WeChat ID, and the address of the store."
Chu Mu took it and looked at it carefully before putting the business card away.
"Which floor is the private room you booked on? I'm going to go out and do some shopping. I'll come find you when I get back."
