Sheng Mingyuan was cooking and Zhou Shixun went over to help. Sheng Mingyuan wanted to take the opportunity to say a few words to Zhou Shixun, so he urged Sheng Anning to take the two children to the living room to play.
Sheng Anning also knew that Sheng Mingyuan and Zhou Shixun had something to say, so she took the two little guys to play with building blocks.
Momo's feelings towards his biological father are just so-so, unlike Anan or Zhouzhou, who haven't seen their fathers for a long time and can't wait to stick to their fathers.
He liked his mother more. When his mother called him to leave, he followed Sheng An Ning without hesitation.
When Sheng Mingyuan and Zhou Shixun were the only ones left in the kitchen, Sheng Mingyuan instructed Zhou Shixun to cut the meat into thin slices: "We'll make stir-fried pork and boiled pork slices, both of which are what An Ning likes."
Zhou Shixun obediently went over to cut the meat, and Sheng Mingyuan stood by with his hands behind his back, watching: "It's okay if it's a little thinner. Now that you're back, are you going to leave again? You won't go out again in a while, right? Although this is your job, sometimes you should think about your family when you're rushing forward."
"Of course, I'm not interfering with your work. I just think that there are three children at home. An Ning doesn't have time to take care of the three children because she's in school. When she goes home at night, she has limited energy and it's tiring to take care of the three children. So your parents are the ones who have the hardest time."
"It would be better if you could stay at home more."
Zhou Shixun said nothing, but lowered his head and cut the meat slices neatly.
Sheng Mingyuan didn't say anything more. Although he had selfish motives as a father, he couldn't be too selfish because of the responsibilities on Zhou Shixun's shoulders.
After a moment of silence, he said, "You know that Momo was stolen some time ago?"
Zhou Shixun was stunned, he stood up and looked at Sheng Mingyuan: "What's going on?"
No one told him about this when he got home. There was a new Aurora at home, and Zhou Nanguang just said that he was there to play with An An and Zhou Zhou, and he probably didn't have time to say anything else.
Now that I think about it, the reason we have so many dogs at home, including a snow mastiff like Aurora, is because Momo was stolen.
Sheng Mingyuan recounted the story of how Momo was stolen, including the fact that the fortune-teller was the mastermind, and how he ran away in the end: "I always feel that this matter can't be that simple. How could that old man steal a child? In the end, he was able to run away from the yard of the Public Security Bureau, and has not been seen until now. How could he be so capable? Could he have an accomplice?"
"As long as these people are not caught, I will feel uneasy. I can't help but wonder what is going on. Will they come again in the future? If the child is lost again next time, will they be able to return on time? During the two days when Momo was lost, An Ning was already devastated. She searched outside day and night, and searched every alley nearby."
"Thank goodness Momo found it, otherwise, hey..."
Sheng Mingyuan sighed. He knew that Zhou Nanguang and Sheng Anning would only report good news to Zhou Shixun and not bad news. They would definitely not mention these things now, and would only mention them to him briefly in the future.
I’m afraid he’ll feel burdened.
But he didn't want to see the children in danger again, and Zhou Shixun should have known about this.
Zhou Shixun's face darkened little by little, and a hint of hostility rose in his originally indifferent eyes, but it only flashed by. The veins on his temples bulged as he tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
He suddenly remembered what the fortune-teller had said before, that if he wanted to save Sheng An Ning, he would have to pay him back with his own life.
The last time Sheng An Ning got into an accident, she woke up after being in a coma for many days. It was like she was reborn. Zhou Shixun didn't feel that he had suffered any loss. Afterwards, he even laughed at himself, saying that he shouldn't have believed the words of an old fortune teller.
Even if Sheng An Ning came into this world after experiencing a bizarre event, he couldn't just believe the absurd statement of one life for another.
Now that the fortune-teller old man is causing trouble again, he has to think more about this matter.
Sheng Mingyuan saw Zhou Shixun's gloomy face and the cold aura around him. He was afraid that Zhou Shixun would be too angry: "Mo Mo is fine now, but it's good for you to come back. It would be best if you could find the fortune teller so that you can stop the trouble forever."
Zhou Shixun nodded silently: "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely protect An Ning and the children."
Sheng Mingyuan naturally believed that Zhou Shixun was the most reliable person in the world. He looked more reliable than Zhou Luancheng. A child who had walked up from the bottom of society was able to endure hardships and was definitely smart enough.
He reached out and patted Zhou Shixun's shoulder: "I believe you. I tell you this because I want you to be prepared."
Taking the kitchen knife from Zhou Shixun, he said, "Okay, you go and accompany An Ning and Mo Mo, and I'll cook."
Zhou Shixun wanted to go, but he was embarrassed to let Sheng Mingyuan cook alone in the kitchen.
Helping Sheng Mingyuan cook in the kitchen.
The lunch was very sumptuous, with twice-cooked pork, boiled pork slices, sweet and sour fish, and noodles with shredded pork.
Lin Wanyin had something to do at school at noon and didn't come back for lunch, so Sheng Mingyuan took Zhou Shixun and Sheng Anning to eat together, and they talked about some recent policies while eating.
Zhou Shixun also looked normal, and occasionally responded to Sheng Mingyuan's words, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious. It was hard to tell that the two had just had a serious conversation.
Sheng An Ning didn't notice it either. Because Zhou Shixun was there, the food tasted especially delicious. She picked out the fish bones from the fish for Momo and Duoduo with a smile on her face. She started to talk a lot more: "The fish grandpa cooked today is so delicious. Momo ate a lot, and Duoduo ate a lot too. Are your bellies full?"
Momo patted his belly happily and nodded seriously: "My belly is round, Momo, I am full."
Zhou Shixun hardly ate anything. He just kept looking at Sheng An Ning and then at Mo Mo with gentle eyes. The little guy seemed to like talking more than when he left, and his pronunciation was very clear.
After dinner, Sheng Mingyuan urged them to go back: "Go back and take a nap. Your parents must be waiting for you at home. Shi Xun just came back, so go back and have a good rest too."
Sheng Anning was not polite: "Okay, we'll come again tomorrow."
Zhou Shixun came here by bus, and when he went back, he pushed Sheng Anning's bicycle. Mo Mo sat in the front. He had just finished his meal, and his little hands were holding the handlebars of the bicycle, feeling a little drowsy.
Sheng An Ning walked beside Zhou Shixun, looked at Mo Mo who was nodding her head and wanted to sleep, and couldn't help laughing: "Mo Mo has the most regular life every day. He goes to bed as soon as he eats lunch. I'm afraid he's too sleepy now."
Zhou Shixun lowered his eyes to look at his son and frowned: "What's wrong with Momo's ears? Why are they always red?"
Sheng An Ning had already gotten used to Mo Mo's ear always turning red, but she had forgotten that Zhou Shixun had never seen it before. She was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to say it so that he would accept it.
