"Th-thank you!" Besides thank you, Su Mu didn't know what else to say to express his excitement.
Liu Xuan put down the towel and placed his hand on her head.
"No need to thank me. Don't worry, I'm here."
Those few simple words deeply moved Su Mu.
Xiao Bao then cried and hurriedly went back to her room.
Not long after, they heard Liu Xuan leave the house.
It's easy to tell that Liu Xuan deliberately kept his footsteps quiet so as not to disturb her and the child.
After putting the child to sleep, she checked the time.
It was already past 7 p.m.
When I was with Li Anran before, she would go out for social engagements at this time on several occasions.
But Li Anran was thinking about her, so he returned before nine o'clock.
She had asked Li Anran what time he would come back if it weren't for her presence.
Li Anran said that usually returning home at 11 or 12 o'clock is considered early.
Sometimes it's one or two in the morning, and sometimes it might be three or four in the morning before I get home.
So... what time will Liu Xuan be back?
An hour later, Su Mu dialed the phone number Liu Xuan had written down for her.
"Hello, Ms. Su. Is there anything I can do for you?"
A deep male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Um... excuse me... never mind, it's nothing, I won't bother you." Su Mu hung up the phone directly.
She needed to know just how much Liu Xuan valued her.
And this phone call is the measuring stick.
To Su Mu's surprise, her phone rang a short while later.
The caller ID was Liu Xuan's number.
I glanced at the time; only three minutes had passed!
At this moment, she was filled with immense excitement.
Even the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.
After calming her excited emotions, she pressed the answer button.
Liu Xuan immediately asked anxiously from the other end: "What happened? I heard from Xiao Wang that you called him just now, but you didn't say what it was about before hanging up."
I also heard that you didn't have him bring you dinner. What happened? Did something happen at home?
"No, it's nothing. I just wanted to ask if you have any bathrobes that I can wear? My clothes are all in my rented apartment. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
"Oh dear! You startled me. No one has ever lived here before, so we didn't prepare any women's items. If you don't mind, you can use mine first."
I'll arrange for someone to buy it and deliver it to your home right away.
"No! It's no trouble at all. If you don't mind, I'll borrow yours for a bit. Don't worry, I'll clean it thoroughly after I've used it."
"Just take whatever you need. Don't be shy. I'll be back as soon as I'm done here."
"No, it's okay. You go about your business, no need to rush back for me. You go ahead and do your thing, I'm hanging up now." Su Mu said and hung up the phone.
The moment I put down my phone, I couldn't hold back any longer and collapsed onto the bed, overwhelmed with excitement and joy.
Liu Xuan cares about her!
Liu Xuan actually cares about her!
Great! So, what's next...?
Su Mu's eyes darkened.
She went to Liu Xuan's room and first looked around the room to make sure there were no women's items.
This is enough to prove that Liu Xuan did not lie to her.
In other words, she was the only woman Liu Xuan brought back.
At this moment, Su Mu clenched his fists in excitement.
Next... all she had to do was wait for Liu Xuan to come back.
However, not long after, instead of hearing Liu Xuan return, they heard Xiao Bao crying.
Su Mu frowned, pulled his large bathrobe tighter around himself, and went back to his room.
I don't know if it's because Xiao Bao's condition has worsened recently, but he always has trouble sleeping.
She also consulted a doctor.
The doctor said it was most likely caused by physical pain or discomfort.
They also said that because the baby is too young, oral painkillers are not an option. Otherwise, it could potentially cause damage to other organs.
She then asked if there were any other solutions.
The doctor told her that the only way was to hold her and gently soothe her.
So whenever this happens, whether it's the first or second half of the night, she holds Xiaobao and gently lulls him to sleep.
But not today!
She glanced at the crying baby and turned to rummage through her bag.
Finally, he took out a sleeping pill and went to Xiaobao's side.
“Baby, you will understand Mommy, right? Mommy did all this not only for Mommy, but also for you.” After saying that, she gritted her teeth and threw it into the bottle.
Seeing the child fall asleep, Su Mu felt very guilty.
But what could she do?
this is life!
After putting the child on the bed, she returned to Liu Xuan's room.
To keep her hair moist, she would go back into the bathroom and wet it again whenever it seemed to dry.
She waited until she heard the electronic lock clicking as the door opened downstairs, then she rushed to the door to wait.
As the footsteps echoed upstairs, they drew closer to her.
Su Mu's gaze was also fixed on the doorknob.
When the footsteps stopped outside the door, she reached out and opened it.
"Ah!" With a scream, Su Mu stumbled back several steps.
"I'm so sorry! Did I scare you?" Liu Xuan rushed over to help her up.
"You scared me to death." Su Mu pulled Liu Xuan's hand to stand up, but her legs gave way and she fell directly into Liu Xuan's arms.
The next second, she blushed and ran away.
"I'm sorry. I... I just had a weak leg, that's why..."
