Chapter 68 Fu Siyan saw Wen Jingxi hug her!
It was especially heartbreaking to see Fu Siyu so sensible.
Shen Qingshu looked away, "Have your father pick you up right after you finish eating."
Fu Siyu's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll listen to Mom!"
“Also,” Shen Qingshu looked at Fu Siyu with a serious expression, “don’t call me Mom anymore.”
Fu Siyu was taken aback.
“Not call her Mom…” He pouted, looking at Shen Qingshu’s serious expression, he slowly lowered his head and mumbled, “Okay.”
Shen Qingshu looked away. "Let's go."
Wen Jingxi nodded, "You go first, I'll keep an eye on this kid."
Just as Fu Siyu was about to chase after Shen Qingshu, Wen Jingxi grabbed his arm. He looked up and glared at Wen Jingxi, his eyes red.
Wen Jingxi felt sorry for him and sighed helplessly, "Kid, behave yourself and don't cause trouble, or I'll throw you out on the street to fend for yourself!"
Fu Siyu nodded, looking sullen.
Wen Jingxi still kept some precautions in mind.
While walking, he pulled Fu Siyu to prevent him from getting close to Shen Qingshu;
When they were in the car, he let Shen Qingshu sit in the front passenger seat and Lu Xiaohan and Fu Siyu sit in the back.
During the meal, he sat between Shen Qingshu and Fu Siyu.
Fu Siyu may be young, but he's not stupid. He knows that Wen Jingxi is deliberately preventing him from getting close to his mother.
But he had already tried so hard to be a good boy, so why did Wen Jingxi still hate him so much?
Fu Siyu couldn't understand it.
He was biting his spoon, tilting his head to look in Shen Qingshu's direction—
"Eat properly." Wen Jingxi placed a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into his bowl. "Don't look around."
Fu Siyu looked at the sweet and sour pork ribs in the bowl with a hint of resentment in her eyes, "I don't want to eat pork ribs!"
"Eat whatever you're given!" Wen Jingxi sneered. "If you're not used to it, go home and ask your Xiao Chu's mother to make you whatever you want to eat!"
“You…” Fu Siyu looked up, about to get angry, but then he remembered what Xiao Chu’s mother had said. He could only glare at Wen Jingxi, then lower his head, picked up a sweet and sour pork rib, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Fine! To appease his mother, he endured it!
Once Mom calms down, he won't have to put up with this bad uncle anymore!
Wen Jingxi secretly sized up Fu Siyu.
Wen Jingxi was somewhat surprised to see that he didn't get angry and was even seriously gnawing on the ribs.
In the past, Fu Siyu would have already started crying and making a scene.
It's only been a few days... and he's suddenly become sensible?
Wen Jingxi turned to look at Shen Qingshu.
Shen Qingshu ignored Fu Siyu the whole time, and was chatting seriously with Lu Xiaohan and the others.
Wen Jingxi pursed her lips, picked up her teacup, took a sip, and then looked at Fu Siyu.
Fu Siyu happened to look up and look at him.
Their eyes met, and Fu Siyu blinked. "Uncle Wen, I still want to eat shrimp, but I don't know how to peel them."
Wen Jingxi: "..."
Forget it, the child is only five years old, I can't really hit him!
Wen Jingxi put on disposable gloves and peeled three large shrimp for Fu Siyu in one go.
"Eat up! Once you're full, have your dad pick you up and take you home."
"Thank you, Uncle Wen." Fu Siyu smiled sweetly at Wen Jingxi. "But Uncle Wen, you don't need to worry. I have a smartwatch. My dad will call me when he's done with his work."
Wen Jingxi: "..."
He took a deep breath, picked up his teacup, took a sip, savored it carefully, and commented meaningfully, "Good tea."
…
After finishing their meal, Lu Xiaohan said she wanted to take a stroll along the riverbank.
Shen Qingshu also wanted to go and see.
My mother once said that when I miss her, I should go for a walk along the river.
On holidays like these, Shen Qingshu can't help but think of her mother.
The group left the hotel.
Fu Siyan hasn't called Fu Siyu yet.
"Siyu." Shen Qingshu looked at Fu Siyu and said calmly, "Call your father."
Fu Siyu was reluctant to make the call, but his mother told him to, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and dial his father's number.
The call went through, but no one answered for a long time.
Fu Siyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, raised his chin and looked at Shen Qingshu, "Mom..."
Chen Qingshu frowned slightly.
Looking at her expression, Fu Siyu swallowed the other word "Mom" and said, "My dad doesn't seem to be finished yet."
"What's there to be busy about on the Lantern Festival!" Wen Jingxi rolled her eyes. "They'll probably just leave the kids with you again and go enjoy some alone time with Zhou Yuchu!"
This is not impossible.
Fu Siyan has done this kind of thing quite often over the past five years.
Shen Qingshu said to Fu Siyu, "Call your mother."
Fu Siyu said "Oh" and then called Zhou Yuchu.
No one answered!
"Neither of them is answering their phones!" Wen Jingxi scoffed. "They're definitely cheating on each other!"
Shen Qingshu's face turned completely cold. She turned to look at the Kongming lanterns that were gradually floating on the river, feeling somewhat anxious.
Wen Jingxi guessed that she was thinking about Jiang Yuelan and wanted to release Kongming lanterns by the river, so he said, "You and Lu Xiaohan go first, I'll stay here with him and wait for Fu Siyan."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingshu looked at him gratefully and said, "Thank you."
"Stop with all this nonsense." Wen Jingxi grabbed Fu Siyu's forearm and said to Shen Qingshu, "You'd better hurry up, or you won't be able to get in if there are too many people."
Indeed, if it were any later, during peak hours, it wouldn't be appropriate for a pregnant woman like her to squeeze onto the riverbank.
Shen Qingshu and Lu Xiaohan went to the riverbank to release sky lanterns.
She left decisively, without even glancing at Fu Siyu again, and without even taking the lanterns Fu Siyu had bought with her.
Fu Siyu looked at the lantern in Wen Jingxi's hand and felt a little disappointed.
In the past, Mom would make the lanterns herself, and then Dad and Mom would take him to the river to enjoy the lanterns.
However, this year Dad went to stay with Xiao Chu's mom;
His mother also left him behind and went to release a sky lantern by herself;
Fu Siyu stared at the cartoon lantern in his hand, his vision gradually blurring.
Snap—
Tears fell onto the lantern, blurring the surface.
Fu Siyu couldn't understand why his mother still ignored him, even though he was already very well-behaved and sensible.
Could it be true, as Xiao Chu's mother said, that Mom is really pregnant?
If a mother really has her own baby, does that mean she will never love him again?
…
The riverbank was teeming with people.
With the help of Lu Xiaohan and Sister Li, Shen Qingshu successfully released a Kongming lantern.
She watched as the Kongming lantern slowly transformed into a star in the night sky, her eyes sparkling.
Lu Xiaohan hugged her. "Qingshu, Aunt Jiang will see it. She will be at ease knowing that you are doing well now."
Shen Qingshu nodded, took a deep breath to calm herself, and said, "There are more and more people, let's go back."
"good."
Sister Li and Master Zhang's family also arrived. They said goodbye to Shen Qingshu and went to meet up with their families.
Lu Xiaohan is a single woman working in Beijing. After finishing her holiday dinner, she had nothing else to do, so she planned to go home.
As more and more people arrived, Shen Qingshu and Lu Xiaohan walked very slowly.
Not far away, Wen Jingxi dodged a few pedestrians and came to them.
“That kid Fu Siyan picked him up.” Wen Jingxi glanced around and saw a dense crowd of people. He frowned and said seriously, “There are too many people. Let’s get out of here quickly.”
Shen Qingshu nodded, "We were just about to head back."
“There are many people here, I’ll protect you.” Wen Jingxi walked to her side and reached out to protect her.
The man's tall frame was like a wall, completely protecting Shen Qingshu in his arms.
But he kept his hand at a gentlemanly distance and did not actually touch Shen Qingshu.
Upon seeing this, Lu Xiaohan let out a swooning scream.
"Ahhh! Teacher Wen, if you can't win over Sister Qing Shu, could you lower your standards and try dating me? You can date me for a month and then dump me!"
"Have you gone mad with demonic possession?" Wen Jingxi glanced at her sideways. "Get in front of us!"
"Oh." Lu Xiaohan shrugged and ran ahead to clear the way.
There were more and more people, and they were walking very slowly.
Suddenly, the crowd surged ahead, and someone bumped into them. Wen Jingxi reacted quickly, immediately pulling Shen Qingshu into his arms and using his other hand to block those who were uncontrollably bumping into him in the chaos.
Shen Qingshu was also frightened and immediately covered her stomach with her hands.
Fortunately, the chaos subsided quickly, but Wen Jingxi remained motionless for a long time.
Shen Qingshu looked up in confusion and found Wen Jingxi gazing into the distance.
She followed his gaze—
Fu Siyan, dressed in a long black trench coat, stood out like a crane among chickens in the crowded crowd.
He was holding a lantern in his hand, the very one that Fu Siyu had given her.
Shen Qingshu frowned slightly, and met Fu Siyan's gaze from a distance of several dozen meters.
The man's dark eyes were deep and fierce, revealing a ruthless and brutal nature, as if he wanted to destroy everything...
