I miss him.
Sometimes, I also look forward to his reaction when he finds out about the child.
I even dreamed that one day in the future, we would get back together and be able to live openly as a family.
That would be wonderful.
Li Yunwei nodded as she listened to me: "I think so too! He's still single, so I'm afraid he hasn't forgotten you yet."
"How could that be? Maybe they just don't want to look for someone."
Li Yunwei shook her head. "I heard that Mr. Su is seriously ill this time, and I'm afraid he really won't last much longer. The old man is pressuring him to get married and settle down as soon as possible, but he hasn't compromised."
I was just picking up my wine glass when I heard this and was taken aback.
"Is Mr. Su ill again?"
"What do you mean 'again'? The old man is very old and has many ailments. If it weren't for the Su family's status and access to the best medical resources, he probably would have passed away long ago... But even so, he probably won't make it this time..."
As I listened to Li Yunwei's words, my mood suddenly became heavy.
Su Shenglin grew up with the old man, so his feelings for the old man must be extraordinary.
How painful it must have been for him.
“Actually, I’m wondering if the old man’s mindset might change at this point? If he knew he had a great-grandson who was so chubby and lovable, do you think he would accept you as well?” Li Yunwei looked at me, her eyes slightly raised, full of expectation.
I stared at her for two seconds, then suddenly laughed. "What nonsense are you talking about? You're telling me to take the child back and tell them—look, this is your Su family bloodline?"
Li Yunwei snorted, "Why not? The matter from back then has been settled. Those in the Gu family who should have been sentenced have been sentenced. Your troublesome brother has also been found to have been involved in espionage, and he was indeed framed by Gu Yanqing. So it has nothing to do with you. There are no particularly serious issues of principle between you and Su Shenglin, so why can't you rekindle your relationship?"
I shook my head, finished the liquid in my glass in one gulp, and said dejectedly, "I wasn't good enough for you back then, and now that I have a child, I'm even less good enough. I don't want to rely on my child for status, nor do I want to use my child as a bargaining chip. Things are fine as they are now."
"Tch, who are you trying to fool? What will you say when the kids grow up and ask about their father? And what will you do when you look at a face that looks exactly like his and miss him day and night?"
Li Yunwei deliberately provoked me, and when she saw that I was about to pour more wine, she snatched the wine bottle away.
"Don't get drunk. You still have to take care of the children. I can't do this kind of thing."
"Okay, I won't drink anymore." I was still rational; as a mother, I couldn't be so casual and willful.
I got up and went over to him, picking up my son. "Sit down for a bit, I'll take him to bathe and put him to sleep."
"Okay, you go ahead with your work, I'll take care of these."
I took my son to the bathroom and gave the little guy a bath.
But for some reason, I felt really sad and wanted to cry.
Thinking about how Su Shenglin still refused to yield to the old man's pressure, I understood what he was insisting on.
