Shu Ying fell into deep thought. "That makes sense. No wonder Zhong Yun'er usually leaves the child with her whenever she's busy. This is the time when the child needs someone, and it's really pitiful that his parents aren't around."
Unfortunately, they are struggling to take care of their own families, and Zhong Yun'er herself doesn't seem to care much about the child.
Although they pitied the children, it was not so bad that they would take the children in and care for them themselves. Even if they had such thoughts, Zhong Yun'er would not be happy to do so.
"When you see that child, don't show too much emotion. Otherwise, Zhong Yun'er might become even more resistant to him and might do something even more heinous behind his back. The child has no way to speak and can't tell you how much suffering he has endured."
Shu Ying thought things through and considered things thoroughly.
Human nature is most vulnerable to tests.
There's not much they can do for that child; the best they can do is stand by and watch.
Li Qingqing nodded, understanding dawning on her.
"Tuantuan is still sleeping at home. She should be awake by now. You rest first, I'll go back now."
Not long after Li Qingqing returned home, Duan Huaichuan also entered the house.
He rarely came home early today; they usually don't see him. Most of the time, he has to wait until Li Qingqing and the child are asleep before he comes back, and he has to leave early again in the morning before they wake up.
Especially since they don't live in the same house and rarely see each other, even when they eat, the family rarely gets together. If she hadn't suddenly met him today, Li Qingqing would have almost forgotten that there was such a person in her family.
At that time, she was making rice noodles for Tuantuan. The little guy had been eating a lot these days and had grown taller, but he didn't seem to gain weight. However, when she held him in her arms, she could feel his substantial weight.
Shu Ying thought that the baby's nutrition might be too monotonous, so she suggested that she try feeding the baby some formula and rice cereal to make up for the lack of breast milk.
"Is the child awake?"
Duan Huaichuan came in from outside, put his coat at the door, and changed his shoes in the entryway.
He rarely takes the initiative to greet people, but today he surprisingly spoke the first word.
Li Qingqing looked up and glanced outside. The sun had already set; otherwise, she would have thought the sun was rising in the west today.
She picked up the soaked rice noodles and stirred them with a spoon. Tuantuan can now eat an egg yolk, so she specially went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some eggs. The rice noodles were mixed with egg yolk, giving them a light rice aroma that was very tempting.
She gave a soft "hmm" and didn't say anything.
She had nothing to say to Duan Huaichuan.
Actually, they never had much in common. They were from different worlds. Usually, she was the one who accommodated him, and she was always the one who took the initiative to find topics that they could talk about.
However, Duan Huaichuan was unwilling to give him face, and most of the time the conversation would go into a dead end, and then Duan Huaichuan would shut up.
