Chapter 490 Born a Bad Seed (20)

In the evening, Jia Qing prepared dinner and the family sat around a square table. On the wall of the main hall hung the portraits of Jia Qing's parents. Jia Qing grew up here and when she returned here, she could not help but talk about her past. When

she was a child, she was in poor health like Chu Zhao. Her parents spent all their energy and efforts to raise her. So when her parents passed away, Jia Qing was sad for a long time before accepting this reality.

Now when she mentions her parents, she can't hide her sadness.

Chu Sheng was a good man. He comforted her by saying, "Now you have me and our child. Your parents-in-law will be happy for you if they are still alive."

Jia Qing smiled and said, "Yeah, you are right."

Her marriage life was happy and her children were obedient and sensible. She was a winner in life in the eyes of many people and was envied by countless people. The only thing that was not perfect was that Chu Zhao's health was too poor. She and her husband were very worried about whether they could support their son.

Chu Ye drank a sip of soup and said slowly: "Mom said that I was in poor health when I was young, so how did I get better later?"

Jia Qing smiled and said: "My parents took me to see a very good Chinese doctor. After many years of treatment, my health got better."

Chu Ye's concerned eyes fell on Chu Zhao next to him, "Brother is not in good health either. Can mom take him to see that Chinese doctor?"

Chu Sheng replied: "We should Yes, I did, but so many years have passed, and the Chinese doctor is no longer with us."

Chu Ye's eyes showed regret, "That's such a pity."

Jia Qing smiled, "We know you care about your brother, Chu Ye, don't worry, your brother is fine, maybe when he is a few years older, he can be as lively as you."

Chu Ye said happily: "That's good."

He cares so much about his brother, who can say he is not a good brother?

Chu Zhao lowered his eyes and said nothing, with a low sense of presence.

In the evening, the two children returned to their rooms. When Jia Qing came out of the shower, she heard her husband's puzzled voice.

"Strange, why is there no signal on the phone?" Chu Sheng tried to restart the phone, tried to pull out the SIM card and put it back, and finally tried to walk out of the house and walk back, but the phone still had no signal.

Jia Qing didn't care, "Sometimes the signal here is not good. Didn't you bring a book? Read it when you have nothing to do, don't play with your phone all the time."

Chu Sheng could only go back to the room to flip out a book to read. Just at this moment, the light bulb flickered, and the room suddenly fell into darkness.

He shouted: "The power is out, wife, where did you put the flashlight?"

A figure walked in from outside the door, took out a flashlight from a drawer and handed it to Chu Sheng.

Chu Sheng turned on the flashlight and kept muttering, "You put things better, you remember where you put them, unlike me, I forget where I put things once I lose them, and I can't find them even after searching for a long time when I need them."

"That's why I told you to put everything where it should be!"

Jia Qing's voice came from the door.

Chu Sheng replied, "That's not it..."

He realized something and paused.

If Jia Qing was standing at the door now, then who was the person who handed him the flashlight not long ago?

The lights in the room came on and the room became bright again.

Jia Qing stood at the door and wiped her hair. She glanced at the light bulb and said, "These are all old circuits. It's normal for them to trip sometimes."

Chu Sheng looked nervous. He scanned the room and didn't see any extra figures. He mustered up his courage and rushed to the closet. He opened the closet and found nothing. He squatted down and stared at the bottom of the bed. There was no figure either.

And there were only a few places in this room where people could hide.

Jia Qing asked curiously: "What are you looking for?"

Chu Sheng stood up and looked at the flashlight in his hand for a long time. After a while, he shook his head, "No, nothing."

Maybe he had some illusion.

[I put fruits on the second layer of the refrigerator, remember to eat them.]

Bai Yao was lying on the bed playing with her mobile phone when she suddenly received this message. She exited the single-player game and replied: [I know, I have eaten!]

[Don't order spicy hot pot again.]

Bai Yao didn't feel guilty at all, [I didn't order it.]

[Do you dare to let me log in to your takeaway account?]

Bai Yao answered decisively: [I dare not.]

Chu Ye sent a series of kitchen knife emojis.

Bai Yao: [I miss you.]

The series of kitchen knives sent not long ago were withdrawn again.

He only sent two words, [Pretentious.]

Through these two words, Bai Yao could almost imagine Chu Ye's happy but extremely suppressed look. She rolled over on the bed and smiled and sent a line of words: [Really! I miss you so much that I'm about to cry! I can't sleep tonight, sob...]

The next moment, the video invitation came.

Bai Yao supported her chin with one hand and accepted the invitation with a smile.

The light on Chu Ye's side was a little dim, which made his face look even more grim. He spoke in a bad tone, "Are you still a three-year-old child? Do you need someone to coax you to sleep? If you tell others, it will really make people laugh, Bai Yao..."

"I want to hear you call me Yaoyao."

Chu Ye paused slightly, and the girl on the screen lay listlessly on the bed and stared at him. She was alone in the pink-themed room, which made the room look so empty.

Not long ago, he would hold her to sleep and fill the extra space of a big bed for her.

Bai Yao sniffed pitifully, "I want you to hug me."

Chu Ye sat up from the bed, his eyes were even more flustered, and his voice was tense, "Why are you crying? You look ugly like this, don't cry!"

Bai Yao pursed her lips, and there were hazy tears in her sparkling eyes, "You are hurting me."

Chu Ye really couldn't understand, when they were trying to beat each other to death in the past, Bai Yao never shed a tear. She was smiling every day and plotting against him behind his back. How come she could be so pitiful every time after they fell in love?

The most crucial problem is that she really, really looks like this... It makes him feel like his heart is broken.

"I didn't kill you, don't cry, Bai Yao..." His throat choked for a moment, and he softened his tone uncomfortably, "Yao Yao, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have killed you, don't cry." Bai

Yao immediately showed a big smile, "Okay, I won't cry!"

The expression on his face changed, and he looked ferocious, "You are teasing me again!"

"I'm not teasing you, I really miss you."
