Chapter 134 Why Daddy Holds Mommy to Sleep
Lin Shu didn't want to argue with him in front of his daughter, so he just carried Shuangshuang back to the room.
Sister Xi turned on the dim yellow bedside lamp in Shuangshuang's room. She thought that Shuangshuang had been afraid of the dark since she was a child and was very clingy. Before she met Wen Xin, she always stayed with her until she fell asleep before leaving.
Now Shuangshuang was hugging Lin Shu's neck, with a timid expression on her face.
"Mommy, you're not going to leave, are you?"
She was lost and it was Brother Xiaoyu who found her. Brother Xiaoyu seems to be a good person.
But for some reason, Zhou Shuang felt unhappy when she thought that her mommy might become Xiaoyu's aunt, and might live with Xiaoyu in the future, just like her and Aunt Wenxin.
Zhou Shuang hugged Lin Shu's neck tightly, and even when Lin Shu wanted to put her on the bed, she refused to let go.
Lin Shu touched his daughter's head and said softly, "No, Mommy will stay with you."
In the square, Zhou Shuang was indeed very frightened.
Lin Shu had never seen Zhou Shuang so frightened before. She even ignored Zhou Yanli who was beside her and only wanted to stick with him.
After all, Zhou Shuang was raised by her, and seeing her daughter sad and scared, Lin Shu was also sad.
Because her daughter likes warmth, no matter how uncomfortable she is, she hopes her daughter is happy.
Now she wants to know, as a mother, how can she bear to give up the child she carried for ten months and went through the gates of hell before giving birth to.
"Shuangshuang, be good and sleep well."
She kissed her daughter's little face, then lay down beside her with her clothes on and held her in her arms.
Zhou Shuang was sure that her mother would not leave, so she curled up tightly in Lin Shu's arms, her arms still around her neck, as if she was afraid that she would suddenly disappear.
"Sir, the kitchen lady's supper is ready. Shall we bring it up? You have one too. Would you like me to bring it up as well?"
Sister Xi was very happy to see the whole family back.
Sister Xi has been here longer than Wu Ma. Wu Ma is the mistress's maid. She has been working in the Zhou family and is very loyal to them.
As soon as Lin Shu came in, he had already gone to the kitchen to prepare a midnight snack for her.
"No, I'll go."
Zhou Yanli finished a whole cigarette and looked a little lonely standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
The phone rang in his pocket for a long time. He knew it was Wen Xin calling, so he didn't answer.
After finishing the third cigarette, he received another heartwarming phone call. This time, he put the phone close to his ear: "Hello——"
"Will you be back tonight?"
A warm, low and soft voice came over, full of concern.
"I'm not going back. Shuangshuang has a fever. I have to stay at home to take care of her."
Zhou Shuang usually likes to cling to Wen Xin when playing, but when she is sick and needs to act like a spoiled child, the person she really thinks of is Lin Shu.
Perhaps, mother and daughter are connected by heart.
No one can replace it.
Zhou Yanli spoke in a low voice. Lin Shu and her daughter were obviously on the second floor and couldn't hear him making a phone call, but he was still afraid that his voice would disturb them.
Wen Xin stopped trying to persuade him: "Shuangshuang is fine, right? The child has a fever and must have been frightened. I wanted to go over, but I was afraid you would be unhappy."
Her voice was gentle, with a hint of reluctance.
The last time I went there, I wanted to stay there with them, but Zhou Yanli didn't allow it. Wen Xin is not a fool, and she would never do anything that Zhou Yanli doesn't like.
She would not persuade Zhou Yanli to take Zhou Shuang back to Panshan Road. After all, Zhou Shuang had really tortured her yesterday, and she had no energy to work the whole day.
When she first arrived at Feiyuan Technology, she had not made any special achievements. If she made a mistake, she would easily be criticized. Wen Xin wanted to make some achievements seriously and could not be disturbed.
"No need. Shuangshuang is emotionally unstable and would be scared to go somewhere else. You don't have to come. I can take care of her."
Wen Xin's expression froze for a moment. Zhou Yanli said that the winding mountain road was somewhere else, but she thought Zhou Yanli had already regarded this place as her home.
But she didn't say it, and she thought that Zhou Yanli couldn't take care of Zhou Shuang alone. Maybe if she asked to go to his place, he would agree. Unexpectedly, he still refused.
Wen Xin also thought that maybe Zhou Yanli would ask Lin Shu to come back. After all, Zhou Shuang was looking for Lin Shu the whole night last night. Although she was annoyed, she had to deal with it.
But then I thought about it and it seemed impossible. I saw Lin Shu and Xiao Boheng together in the Central Square yesterday. She seemed to be very nice to Xiao Yu. Could it be that Lin Shu wanted to choose Xiao Boheng?
"Okay, then let me know if you need anything, Yanli. You know I care about Shuangshuang very much. When she's not around, I feel completely off. I'm thinking about her all the time and hope she's safe."
She said these words naturally.
"knew."
Zhou Yanli hung up the phone very politely. Wen Xin held the phone in her hand, not knowing what to think for a moment.
Upstairs, Lin Shu had already fallen asleep holding Zhou Shuang.
Zhou Shuang nestled in her mother's arms, a relieved smile on her little face.
When Zhou Yanli went upstairs, he saw the mother and daughter sleeping in each other's arms.
He closed the door gently and turned off the lights.
The surroundings were instantly plunged into darkness.
In the early morning, when a ray of sunlight shone on Lin Shu's face, she couldn't help but turn over and slowly opened her eyes, but accidentally bumped into a strong embrace.
A warm and familiar feeling enveloped her whole body. Lin Shu was startled and woke up completely.
Above her head, she could hear Zhou Yanli's light and even breathing. Beside her, Zhou Shuang muttered, "Mommy."
Lin Shu was surrounded by the father and daughter like a sandwich and dared not move.
She then remembered that when she sent her daughter back to her room last night, she kept hugging her neck and refused to let her go. Later, Lin Shu didn't even take off her clothes and fell asleep in a daze.
She didn't know when Zhou Yanli slept next to her later.
Lin Shu couldn't remember how long it had been since Zhou Yanli had held her in his arms like this before falling asleep. As soon as she moved her body, Zhou Yanli hugged her even tighter.
"Zhou Yanli, let me go——"
She wanted to get out of his arms. They were getting a divorce, so wasn't this inappropriate?
Zhou Yanli didn't even open his eyes and dragged her into his arms: "It's still early, sleep a little longer, dear——"
Like coaxing a child, Lin Shu's eyes instantly turned red, but her daughter was beside her and clung tightly to her. If she moved a little, Zhou Shuang would wake up.
She could only let the father and daughter hold her, but her body couldn't help but stiffen.
Finally, Zhou Shuang woke up first, opened her eyes and saw Lin Shu: "Mommy."
She rubbed her eyes and sat up on the bed. She saw Daddy hugging Mommy again. Her little face was filled with confusion: "Daddy, why are you sleeping in my room with Mommy in your arms?"
Lin Shu pushed Zhou Yanli away and got up.
Zhou Yanli stopped her and asked, "What's the hurry?"
Lin Shu didn't want to have any physical contact with him, and she couldn't get angry just now because the child was there.
Now Zhou Shuang has woken up and seen them sleeping in each other's arms. How is he going to explain this to Wen Xin later?
Lin Shu: "It's getting late, and Shuangshuang doesn't have a fever anymore. I need to get back to work. Mr. Zhou, if you keep pestering me like this, aren't you afraid that my girlfriend will misunderstand you?"
Zhou Yanli's originally gentle expression was instantly covered with a layer of frost, and he nodded: "Indeed, I shouldn't stay here."
He threw back the quilt and got out of bed. Zhou Shuang was still looking at her parents who were in a bad mood with sleepy eyes.
"Mommy, Daddy, will you come pick me up after school today?"
