"But Daddy isn't stupid. Why does Mommy say he's stupid?" Shen Yu thought for a moment, "Is it because Daddy doesn't make Mommy happy?"
Yu Rou had just said it casually, and now she didn't know how to respond. Children are really smart, they can interpret such a sentence in such a profound way.
She nodded, wanting to end the topic, but Shen Yu said seriously, "Then I'll make Mom happy, and Mom won't blame Dad, okay?"
Yu Rou: "Mom doesn't blame Dad."
Chen Yu: "Really? Didn't Mom just say Dad was stupid?"
Yu Rou was embarrassed. "I mean, Dad doesn't know how to tell Xiao Yu stories. He's a stupid dad."
Shen Yu looked at her in disbelief, “Mom, you definitely don’t mean that.”
"Okay, Xiaoyu, be good... Let's go back to our room and sleep. Do you want to listen to a story?" She patted his head.
Chen Yu immediately became obedient and said softly, "Yes."
"Then let's go to the study and see if there are any storybooks."
"Mom, do you still need to look at the book before you can explain it? Can't you remember it?" Shen Yu looked at her with those big watery eyes, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
"I'm afraid I've made a mistake."
Yu Rou sincerely felt that raising a child was a mental job, and you could never keep up with a child's thinking.
"Okay then." Shen Yu pouted and nodded reluctantly, "I'll take Mom to get the book."
Yu Rou picked out "Harry Potter", the most suitable book for children, from the hundreds of books in the study. The others were all classics, and there was not even a fairy tale book.
After choosing the books, Yu Rou and Shen Yu went back to Shen Yu's bedroom hand in hand.
His room has a bit of childishness, with sky blue walls, planets and astronauts painted on the ceiling, and some animal stickers on the walls.
"Then lie down quickly. I'm going to start talking." Yu Rou helped him lift the quilt and let him climb on.
Chen Yu cooperated very well and lay down, then covered himself with the quilt obediently.
"Mom, go ahead and tell me. I'm ready."
Seeing him acting like a little adult, Yu Rou wanted to laugh. She opened the book and read to him from the first page.
Yu Rou was an actor after all, and she treated storytelling as reciting lines from a script, and was very involved. After a while, Shen Yu listened attentively and even asked her questions about the character's experiences.
"Mom, little Harry's parents are gone. He's so pitiful."
"But he still has many friends and people who love him." Yu Rou touched his cheek.
Shen Yu pouted, her pink face was really cute, "But, I can't live without mom and dad. Xiao Yu can't live without mom and dad."
Yu Rou pinched the soft part on his face and said, "You have a father and a mother, we are all here."
Shen Yu held her hand, "Then you both have to stay by my side."
Yu Rou felt like she was being tricked by a child.
"We are all here with you, dear... Close your eyes. It's getting late. Mommy will talk to you for a while. You should go to bed soon."
Shen Yu: “Okay.”
Seeing Shen Yu close his eyes, she smiled helplessly and continued to turn the pages to tell him the rest of the story.
About twenty minutes later, Yu Rou stopped and called him several times, but Shen Yu didn't respond. He closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep.
Yu Rou breathed a sigh of relief and thought, I finally got some sleep.
She quietly put the book down and walked out.
Shen Jue was waiting for her in the corridor, and when he saw her come out, he put out the cigarette in his hand.
Yu Rou looked at him and said, "Xiao Yu is asleep, what do you want to tell me?"
Shen Jue hesitated for a few seconds, "Come with me."
Yu Rou: "Can't I say it here?"
Shen Jue frowned and looked at her with a strange look. The fiery heat in his eyes made Yu Rou tremble with fear.
After a while, Shen Jue looked away and went straight to the master bedroom.
Yu Rou had no choice but to follow him. She also wanted to know what he wanted to say to her.
…
The master bedroom was originally shared by two people, but the original owner and Shen Jue had been separated for a long time, and Shen Jue also moved to the second bedroom. This room has been uninhabited for a long time. Although it is clean, it is a bit deserted.
Yu Rou took the initiative and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Shen Jue said in a deep voice: “Are you serious about what you said to Xiao Yu?”
He stood by the window, the moonlight shining on his face, clear and cold, and a little lonely.
"What do you mean?" Yu Rou didn't know what he was talking about.
"You said you would spend more time with him in the future."
Yu Rou said calmly, "What do you think?"
Shen Jue stared at her face, "I hope you are serious."
Yu Rou deliberately ignored the hidden meaning of his words and said softly, "I will try my best. If I am not busy at work, I will come over to see him more often."
Shen Jue's expression changed slightly, he took a few steps forward and stood in front of her, "Why?"
Yu Rou felt a sense of oppression, "What?"
"Why is it like this all of a sudden?" Shen Jue took another step forward. The distance between them was very close, and Shen Jue could pull her into his arms with just one hand.
Yu Rou dodged and didn't look him in the eye. "What's wrong? Don't you want me to spend more time with our son?"
Shen Jue suppressed his emotions and asked, "Aren't you unwilling to raise the child?"
"I was just saying that out of anger." Yu Rou simply refused to admit it.
"Are you doing this because you want me to agree to a divorce?"
Yu Rou glared at him dissatisfiedly, "No, I'm not that boring."
Shen Jue looked at her in silence, not knowing what she was thinking.
Once the room quieted down, it became very dull.
Yu Rou didn't like this atmosphere. She took two steps back, looked at Shen Jue, and said, "What exactly do you want to tell me? Is it just this question? If you have nothing else to do, I'll go back first. It's getting late."
