Bo Yu limps from the door to the bedroom, and he doesn’t find little Watermelon, and the house is silent without sounds at all. He immediately feels anxious.
“Little Watermelon? Bo Yanting? Bo Yanting?”
Bo Yu is so anxious that he sweats all over.
For a while, the voice of little Watermelon comes out from Bo Yu’s bedroom. He cries himself hoarse, but still whimpers.
At that moment, Bo Yu’s heart suddenly tightens up, and he opens the bedroom door, follows the voice to the wardrobe and opens the wardrobe door.
Little Watermelon crouches in the wardrobe with Dandan and cries out of breath, trembling all over. A lock of hair on the forehead trembles as he trembles, looking pitiful and lovely.
Bo Yu feels pitiful and funny, habitually picks up Dandan, ignores its sobbing, puts it on the ground, and then picks up little Watermelon.
Little Watermelon hugs Bo Yu’s head hard. “Papa, where did you go? Where did you go?”
Because little Watermelon cries fiercely for a long time, he can’t say a complete sentence now.
Bo Yu kisses him on the face, and is muddled with snot and tears. He tries to endure that, but in vain. He goes to the bathroom and wipes little Watermelon’s face with a wet handkerchief.
“When did you wake up?”
Little Watermelon is still burping, but feels better when he sees Bo Yu. “A long time ago. I can’t find you, Papa.”
Bo Yu answers, “I just went out for running and got lost. I’m sorry, little Watermelon.”
Little Watermelon feels grieved, but he still considerately wipes the sweat on Bo Yu’s forehead with the hand. “Papa, please don’t go running.”
Bo Yu, who is good at telling lies, having no guilty conscience in the face of his tender son, nods and says, “I won’t go running next time.”
He should be a fool if he will fall into the trap again!
Suddenly Dandan runs from the side, jumps up, grips Bo Yu’s shirt hem with its teeth, as if feeling himself highly flattered when death is at hand.
Bo Yu puts down little Watermelon, turns around and grabs Dandan, and kicks it out of the bathroom.
Little Watermelon sits on the dressing table in front of the mirror and reaches out to ask for hug. He has no sense of security when he doesn’t hold Bo Yu’s head.
Bo Yu is okay to hug him. He doesn’t return overnight; otherwise little Watermelon won’t be like that.
But anyway, who prepared the lemonade that he drinks by accident?
Bo Yu lowers the eyes and depresses his inquiry and thinking. That shouldn’t be so simple.
But he can’t find the truth at all depending on his own identity and social status. So, Bo Yu just woolgathers for a moment and leaves it behind his head.

Qi Yan becomes angry from embarrassment, “I was frustrated. Someone throws a monkey wrench in my plan. Give me another chance. I’ll succeed this time.”
The man on the line sneers, “You really think that Song Shilin is your servant? He isn’t so silly as to give you a second chance to set about your plan.”
Qi Yan contradicts him, “He doesn’t know it is I who do that. There will always be opportunities.”
The man is speechless because of Qi Yan’s stupidity. “Take it slow, don’t let him get hold of the evidence. That’s all.”
After saying that, the man hangs up.
Qi Yan throws the mobile on the ground and hums.
Qi Yan always follows the man’s advice because the man can help to disarm obstacles and let Qi Yan easily stay with Song Shilin.
That’s ridiculous.
However, Bo Yu drinks the lemonade which is prepared for Song Shilin last night. Qi Yan guesses maliciously that Bo Yu has sex with others.
He feels it is so disgusting whenever he thinks of it.
If he catches Bo Yu’s shortcomings, he will make trouble to Bo Yu who ruins his chances.
Qi Yan’s eyes are indifferent.
Song Shilin who sleeps with Bo Yu for one night doesn’t know at all that Qi Yan is the conspirator who makes the trouble. After Bo Yu leaves, he returns to the bathroom and continues to bathe.
The hair is wet without drying off. Song Shilin holds a goblet and takes a sip of the red wine. His indifferent and deep eyes are angry.
He isn’t stupid.
Bo Yu looks usual except being drunk at the door of the restroom last night. How is it possible for him to eat aphrodisiac because of the trap when Song Shilin doesn’t watch him for a few minutes?
Song Shilin remembers the waiter who appears in the corridor with lemonade for no reason and the waiter’s panic after Bo Yu drinks the lemonade, and he vaguely seems to be close to the truth.
Song Shilin frowns and thinks that it’s not suitable to explore flagrantly that kind of thing.
It happens in the century imperial city, and it’s Bo Yu who eats aphrodisiac because of other’s trap. If that thing is known by the public, it will cause damage to the hotel and Bo Yu’s reputation.
Song Shilin bends the fingers, knocks on the table and makes a thumping sound with an inscrutable expression on the face.
However, he can’t swallow insult and humiliation silently. The investigation is necessary. But it must be carried out in secret instead of being done flagrantly.

In view of the serious psychological trauma suffered by little Watermelon in the early morning, Bo Yu takes a day off and happily stays at home with him to watch cartoons like Superman and Pleasant Sheep.
Watching the scene of the wolf grabbing the sheep and little monsters for the whole day, Bo Yu is dizzy and is in no mood to take care of Dandan who cries and screams.
Little Watermelon sits happily on the sofa and eats a cake. Until there is one third of the cake left, then he reluctantly puts the cake in front of Dandan, pouting the mouth and watches him eat the cake while waging its tail.
Bo Yu stands at the kitchen door with a kitchen knife and frowns, “Don’t give him the cake. It will make him sick.”
Little Watermelon turns around and says, “Papa give the cake left at home to Dandan on its last birthday?”
Bo Yu returns to the kitchen in silence.
Stupid son! Why he gives him the cake from the last birthday is because there is so much left that they can’t finish it. Now that’s a little cake, which isn’t enough for little Watermelon. Little Watermelon shouldn’t give the cake left to Dandan? So stupid!
Little Watermelon and Dandan have the deeper feelings after they share the cake with each other. So that when little Watermelon takes a bath, Dandan goes around in circles and wags its tail around the bathtub. The dog’s face is full of eagerness to try.
Bo Yu, with sharp eyes and agile hands, splashes Dandan with water. When Dandan runs a little farther, he warns, “Stop! You just stand there and don’t come over here.”
But little Watermelon isn’t happy, struggling to jump out of the bathtub in order to hold Dandan to the bathtub for a bath together.
Bo Yu grabs little Watermelon’s pigtail, ignoring his angry eyes, and says forcefully, “Take a bath, or I cut off your pigtail and shave your hair cleanly.”
Little Watermelon is reluctant to sit in the bathtub and play with ducks. His little mouth pouts so high, showing his dissatisfaction, “Dandan also wants to take a bath.”
“He has his own bathtub. I won’t allow it to take a bath with you. Please drop the idea forever.” Bo Yu says coldly and pinches out the little flame burning in little Watermelon’s heart.
Dandan can hardly stand, lying on the ground, looking at little Watermelon from afar with the eagerness of taking a bath with him.
Little Watermelon has finally taken a bath. He runs around the living room barefoot with Dandan.
Raising the eyebrows, Bo Yu is about to get angry. As it happens, the mobile is ringing. He answers the phone without looking at the caller identification.
Mo Anyu seems to say with smiles, “Bo Yu, are you going to come to the crew tomorrow?”
Bo Yu nods. Before he answers, the naughty child runs by the side with Dandan in his arms and shouts, “Papa, come here and help Dandan bathe. I’m going to sleep with Dandan today.”
The child’s crisp childish voice passes through Bo Yu’s ears and phone, and then comes to Mo Anyu on the line.
Mo Anyu, “…”
Bo Yu, “…”
What the hell? (#?Д?)！
With a buzz in her head, Bo Yu is very regretful and can’t help scolding himself why he is so easy to lose her vigilance.
Mo Anyu also feels embarrassed on the line. It’s simply a call from a friend, but it becomes embarrassing because he finds the secret of his friend.
Bo Yu coughs and breaks the ice, “He is my son.”
Little Watermelon has sharp ears. He hears that Bo Yu is introducing himself to the person on the line. He quickly lays down Dandan and runs to Bo Yu, looking up dully.
Bo Yu grabs little Watermelon’s pigtail and waits for the person on the line to express his opinions.
Mo Anyu says, “You have the child at so young age.”
Bo Yu’s eloquence is frozen in such an awkward moment, and he doesn’t get on with the topic in time.
“What’s his name?” Mo Anyu says slowly.
Bo Yu looks at little Watermelon’s pigtail again and prompts him to answer by himself.
“Little Watermelon.” Little Watermelon answers loudly with the proud expression, “Hello, uncle.”
Mo Anyu smiles. The embarrassment between the two adults much disappears. “Director Hou asked me if you would come to the crew tomorrow? We’ll finish the final episode at first, and then the previous episodes.”
Although Bo Yu doesn’t understand why Mo Anyu tells him that trivial matter in person, he doesn’t ask explicitly and nods gladly, “Okay, I get that. See you tomorrow.”
Mo Anyu may be a little busy. After exchanging the usual pleasantries, he hangs up. It’s different with the idle chatting they have for a long time before.
Holding the phone, Bo Yu doesn’t say it frankly in view that Mo Anyu should feel embarrassed. With a sigh, he goes to bed with little Watermelon in the arms.
He is unlucky in these days. Bo Yu can’t help wondering if he has offended any God; otherwise he is frustrated no matter what he does.
******
After hanging up, his tender facial expression suddenly changes. He sweeps the bottles and cups on the bar to the ground, crackling the crisp sounds.
Mo Anyu goes to the wine cabinet, takes out a bottle of red wine, opens the stopper and pours into his mouth.
Previously, he quietly follows Bo Yu, wondering where he lives. But he has never thought that Bo Yu picks up a child.
At that time, it is very dark, and he is unable to see what the child looks like, so he consoles himself that the child is only his relative. Unexpectedly, that is really his son!
So, he has the child with the profligate woman in the two years of his disappearance!
The more he thinks of it, the more irritable Mo Anyu feels. He suddenly throws bottles on the ground, breathing heavily. Obviously, his bloodshot eyes look very angry.
How can he have the child with others in private?
You are mine!
Mo Anyu’s chest fluctuates constantly, and there are the malevolence flashes through his eyes.

Bo Yu manages to hush the child to sleep, takes out the ointment he buys on the way back this morning and takes it on himself, groveling on the bed.
“What a shame!.” After taking the ointment on himself, Bo Yu motionlessly lies on the bed. “I have not only been slept on by the other, but also put the ointment on myself. What luck!”
Bo Yu turns over in bed and looks at the ceiling without blinking. He recalls what happened last night and says yearningly, “It’s so cool. I feel that the rain falls on the ground after a long drought.”
Bo Yu, unashamed, imagines the love with Song Shilin last night, and falls asleep with a crooked head.
