Chapter 274 Ah Shu, are you still blaming me?
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingshu was taken aback.
Xiao Nian'an was sitting quietly on the sofa, but her eyes reddened when she heard Xiao Anning's words.
He didn't cry, but the little guy sat on the sofa with red eyes, looking very pitiful.
Shen Qingshu noticed this, and sat down next to her son with her daughter in her arms, holding her daughter in one arm and her son in the other.
"Don't be sad, Daddy's just gone on a long trip." Shen Qingshu's voice was gentle. The incident happened suddenly, so she could only comfort her two children first. "But Xiao Nian'an and Xiao Anning, remember that no matter where Daddy goes, he will always love you."
Nestled in her mother's arms, Xiao Nian'an asked softly, "Will Daddy call us?"
Shen Qingshu: "If he has time, he will call you, but if he doesn't call, he will definitely miss you even when he's busy."
"Waaah, why did Daddy go abroad?" Little Anning buried her face in her mother's chest, tears welling up in her eyes. "Daddy said he would send me to kindergarten, and he said he would help me prove to Xiaohua that he is more handsome than Xiaohua's dad, but now he's gone abroad..."
Shen Qingshu had no idea that Fu Siyan had made such a promise with Xiao Anning.
Although Anning is only four years old, she is a child who values agreements and promises.
Fu Siyan made such a promise to her, and if he fails to keep it, Xiao Anning will probably remember it for a long time, or even for the rest of her life.
Calm and soothe the complex emotions.
In fact, she still doesn't know what's going on with Fu Siyan.
But she had a vague suspicion in her heart...
She looked down at her daughter and said, "Xiao Anning, although Daddy is your and Xiao Nian'an's daddy, Daddy is also himself. He always has things to do as an adult. No matter what happens, Daddy will always love you and Xiao Nian'an."
Little Anning nestled on her mother's shoulder. She was exhausted from crying, her eyelids drooping listlessly. "Daddy won't forget us, right?"
“Yes, you are his most beloved treasures, he can’t bear to forget you.” Shen Qingshu coaxed gently, “He loves you and Xiao Nian’an very much, so you should trust him too.”
Xiao Anning felt a little relieved after hearing her mother say that.
She was really tired and sleepy, so she rubbed her eyes with her little hands and quickly fell asleep.
Shen Qingshu held Xiao Anning in one arm and rubbed Xiao Nian'an's head with the other, "Isn't our Nian'an also reluctant to part with her father?"
“Mom.” Xiao Nian’an stared at her with his dark eyes for a while before nodding. “I don’t want Dad to go abroad either.”
After Xiao Nian'an finished speaking, he pursed his lips tightly, and his eyes reddened again, but he was very sensible and suppressed his emotions, not wanting his mother to worry.
Shen Qingshu hugged him tighter. "Mommy's here, Nian'an. You can rely on Mommy."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Nian'an's lips trembled, and before tears could fall, he buried his face in his mother's arms. "Mom, I miss Dad."
Shen Qingshu lowered her head and gently kissed the top of his head. "Dad will miss you too. While Dad is away, Mom will stay with you and your sister, as well as your godfather, Aunt Zhang, Grandma Yun, Aunt Xingxing and Little Xingchen. We're all here for you."
Xiao Nian'an nodded.
Shen Qingshu held one child in each arm, coaxing her daughter to sleep, and then continued to coax her son.
Wen Jingxi and the others stood by and watched, feeling somewhat melancholy.
...
The rain continued to fall, and the sky was gloomy.
Shen Qingshu asked Wen Jingxi to help carry Xiao Anning back to her room.
She carried Xiao Nian'an and followed behind.
After Wen Jingxi put Xiao Anning on the bed, he turned around and saw Shen Qingshu carrying Xiao Nian'an in. He asked, "What happened?"
"I'll stay with the child for a nap first," Shen Qingshu said softly, her face expressionless.
Wen Jingxi knew that she was running away.
He didn't say anything in the end, and walked out of the room to help close the door.
Shen Qingshu put Xiao Nian'an on the bed and lay down herself. "Mom will stay with you. Take a nap."
Xiao Nian'an closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.
Shen Qingshu looked at her two children beside her and slowly closed her eyes.
The wind and rain continued outside the window.
The room was very quiet.
The only sound was the even breathing of the two children.
Shen Qingshu closed her eyes, and the man's last words kept replaying in her mind—
[Ah Shu, do you still resent me?]
Do you resent it?
Shen Qingshu did not answer him.
Because even she herself couldn't give a definite answer.
…
When I woke up, the rain outside the window had lessened, and the sky had brightened a little.
Shen Qingshu glanced at the time; it was two o'clock.
The two children had taken a nap and woke up in a much better mood.
That's just how kids are; their emotions come and go quickly.
Shen Qingshu led a child down from the second floor, holding one child in each hand.
Sister Yun saw them and hurried over: "You're all awake. I went upstairs at noon and saw that you and your two children were sleeping soundly, so I didn't wake you up for lunch."
I slept for quite a long time.
Shen Qingshu said, "It might be because it was raining, and I fell asleep without realizing it while lying with them."
Sister Yun: "What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you right away."
"Let's cook some noodles."
Sister Yun: "Alright!"
Xiao Anning and Xiao Nian'an have already gone to play with their toys by themselves.
Shen Qingshu took a nap, but perhaps because of her incorrect posture, she woke up with a slightly uncomfortable neck and a bit of dizziness.
She walked to the front door and looked up at the sky.
The rain came suddenly and lasted a long time, with no sign of stopping.
She vaguely remembered that her phone was still in her bag.
Wrap it up on the sofa side.
Shen Qingshu walked over, opened her bag, and took out her phone.
I saw several missed calls on my phone.
Qin Yancheng, Shao Qing, and Song Lanyin.
With so many missed calls, Shen Qingshu didn't know which one to call back first.
Just then, the phone vibrated again; it was Qin Yancheng calling.
Shen Qingshu stared at Qin Yancheng's number, then hesitated.
Shen Qingshu did not answer the phone until it rang and then automatically disconnected.
Later, Qin Yancheng called several more times, but Shen Qingshu didn't answer.
Finally, the phone ran out of battery and shut down automatically.
Shen Qingshu put the dead phone back into her bag.
Soon after, Sister Yun finished cooking the noodles, and Shen Qingshu called the two children to wash their hands and eat.
Xiao Anning and Xiao Nian'an were both hungry. After washing their hands, they sat obediently in their high chairs and ate their noodles.
Shen Qingshu sat at the dining table watching them, barely eating any of the noodles in her bowl, which had clumped together.
After dinner, Shen Qingshu stayed home with her child.
She didn't go out all afternoon, and didn't charge her phone when it ran out of battery.
Sister Yun and Zhang Yun watched from the side, shook their heads, and went about their own business.
Wen Jingxi received a phone call at noon and hurriedly went out.
They haven't come back yet.
Zhang Yun roughly guessed that something had happened to Fu Siyan.
…
Wen Jingxi didn't return from outside until it was dark.
He walked in from outside, his steps hurried, his expression solemn.
Shen Qingshu met his gaze.
She was so calm, she didn't ask anything.
But Wen Jingxi felt that she had already guessed it.
"Ah Shu," Wen Jingxi said gravely, "the car is wrecked, and you need to go to the police station."
