Chapter 255 Because of You



Lei Lei has been smiling ever since he met Qi Mengmeng. Feng Lian felt a little sad. She has been taking care of Lei Lei for several years, but she has never seen him so happy.

After dinner, Qi Mengmeng took out the newly bought basins and gave them to Feng Lian and Lei Lei, letting them wash themselves.

Lei Lei pulled Qi Mengmeng and asked her to accompany him to brush his teeth.

Qi Mengmeng listened to Lei Lei throughout the whole process, but she was just accompanying him and did not take any action.

Last year she discovered that although Leilei was young, he could do many things and he did them all by himself.

After washing up, Lei Lei returned to bed, rolled over on the bed, and said with a smile, "I can sleep with my mother again."

Qi Mengmeng felt a little sad after hearing this. She felt that Lei Lei was obsessed with the feeling of having a mother, so he was so happy to see her.

When Qi Mengmeng also lay down, Lei Lei stood next to Qi Mengmeng and suddenly said, "Mom, can you tell me a story?"

"Okay." Qi Mengmeng agreed and began to tell a story to Lei Lei.

Lei Lei listened very seriously at first, but he was young and had been running all day, so he fell asleep soon.

Qi Mengmeng stopped and seeing that Lei Lei didn't say anything, she pulled the quilt over him and fell asleep.

The next morning, as soon as Qi Mengmeng opened her eyes, she smelled the fragrance of rice. She walked out and saw Feng Lian cooking porridge in the kitchen.

"Mengmeng, wake up. I've already cooked the porridge. I see there are some buns from last night. How about we heat them up and eat them?"

Qi Mengmeng took out three eggs from the corner and asked Feng Lian: "Let's boil another egg each. There are also some side dishes I made. You can try them later."

Feng Lian took the egg from Qi Mengmeng and asked Qi Mengmeng to wash up.

Qi Mengmeng didn't argue with her. After all, they would be staying here for several days, and Qi Mengmeng couldn't do all the work by herself.

The weather is not hot now, so there is no need to boil water. After Qi Mengmeng finished washing up, she called Lei Lei and asked him to wash his face and brush his teeth.

"Sister Feng, I have to go to work soon. You can just take Leilei to play near home. My master's wife's house is across the street. Leilei went there yesterday. If you are bored, you can go over there to play. My master's wife is a very nice person."

Qi Mengmeng told Feng Lian about this before going to work, and also said that she would bring back lunch so that Feng Lian didn't have to cook.

Lei Lei held Qi Mengmeng's hand with a look of reluctance, but he knew Qi Mengmeng needed to go to work, so he walked Qi Mengmeng to the door.

Qi Mengmeng promised to bring Lei Lei some delicious food at noon, and only then did Lei Lei let Qi Mengmeng leave.

After working all morning, Qi Mengmeng quickly went to the cafeteria when it was time to get off work. Her luck was pretty good today as there was stewed fish in the cafeteria. Qi Mengmeng bought two servings of stewed fish and a stir-fried dish, and quickly drove home.

Lei Lei has not gone out since Qi Mengmeng went to work. Feng Lian wanted to take him out for a walk, but Lei Lei shook his head and said that he wanted to wait for Qi Mengmeng to come back at home.

So when Qi Mengmeng opened the door after get off work, Lei Lei rushed over to her immediately: "Mom, you're back."

"Ouch." Qi Mengmeng almost dropped the lunch box in her hand, and she quickly stood up.

Lei Lei stood there feeling a little guilty: "Mom, I just miss you."

"It's okay." Qi Mengmeng shook her head at Lei Lei, "The lunch box is there, it didn't spill. Mom bought Lei Lei delicious food at noon today, come and have a look."

Feng Lian came out of the house upon hearing the noise and said helplessly, "You went to work, and Lei Lei didn't want to go out. He said he would wait for you at home. He also kept asking me the time. He knew it was time to get off work, so he went to the door to wait for you."

Qi Mengmeng put the lunch box on the table first, then hugged Lei Lei and said, "Our Lei Lei is the best."

Lei Lei smiled immediately. He helped Qi Mengmeng open the lunch box and then helped to get the steamed buns.

Seeing that Qi Mengmeng brought back fish, he added, "I like fish the most."

Qi Mengmeng couldn't stop smiling. She thought Lei Lei was such a warm-hearted boy who was really good at providing emotional value.

No matter what Qi Mengmeng does, Lei Lei thinks it’s good. Who wouldn’t like a child like this?

Not to mention Lei Lei having fun here, even Qi Mengmeng felt that she was smiling more often.

Even Master Li said that Qi Mengmeng looked glowing and softer recently.

Qi Mengmeng felt that this was the power of praise. No matter who it was, if they were praised by a little kid every day, they would be happy.

Besides, it feels so good to have someone greet you when you come home every day. Leilei makes Qi Mengmeng feel that she is the most important person in his heart.

But today, when Qi Mengmeng got off work, she didn't see Lei Lei at the door. She thought Feng Lian took Lei Lei out to play, so she didn't care and put the prawns she asked someone to buy in the kitchen. This thing is rare and hard to buy.

When she returned to the house to put her things away, she found Lei Lei sitting in the house in a daze, without the smile he always had on his face.

Qi Mengmeng felt something was wrong, so she walked over and touched Lei Lei's forehead: "Leilei, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lei Lei seemed to have just woken up and looked at Qi Meng Meng: "Mom, you're back? You got off work so early today."

Qi Mengmeng frowned slightly. Not only did she come back late today, but she was also a little later than usual. However, Lei Lei didn't notice it at all.

She looked at Feng Lian beside her, and Feng Lian shook her head at her without answering.

Qi Mengmeng suppressed her doubts and asked Lei Lei with a smile: "I asked someone to buy some prawns today, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Yes." Lei Lei got up and followed Qi Mengmeng to the kitchen.

Qi Mengmeng frowned again, and the smile on Lei Lei's face disappeared. Lei Lei saw that Da Xia's expression was too dull. Although he was smiling, there was a sense of sadness in that smile.

After all, Leilei is young and can't hide his emotions. His reaction today is very different from the past few days.

Moreover, Lei Lei has always been by her side and asked her if she would always like him in the future.

In the first two days after Lei Lei came, he really liked to stick to Qi Mengmeng, but he has not been so clingy in the past two days. Why does he look so insecure today? It's so strange.

A few days ago, Lei Lei fell asleep before Qi Mengmeng finished telling the story.

But as soon as Qi Mengmeng moved, Lei Lei woke up. Qi Mengmeng lay in bed for another half an hour before Lei Lei fell asleep.

Qi Mengmeng stood up with a frown. She had just been busy coaxing Lei Lei to sleep and had not yet washed up.

Feng Lian from next door heard the noise and came out. She glanced at the dark room and asked quietly, "Leilei is asleep."

"Well, what happened to Leilei today? I feel like Leilei is not very happy today."

Qi Mengmeng felt that Feng Lian must know the reason.

Feng Lian sighed, and hesitated to speak. Finally, when Qi Mengmeng was about to get anxious, she said, "Because of you."
