C114 – It’s Not Easy to Get in the Middle

Under Wen Baobao’s care, Wen Shuyue got so much better in a short time and she was soon discharged from the hospital.

Obviously, she could no longer live in her old home, neither could she go back to He’s place. Wen Shuyue had no choice but to go to Lin Lin’s home with Wen Baobao.

“Hope you wouldn’t mind. My place is a little messy. I was worried that the nannies would tell my parents about my situation, so I fired them. Most likely, in the future, we’re often going to have takeout.” Lin Lin shrugged helplessly.

She had always liked to be free and didn’t like being restrained. She had learned a lot from living alone as she was not an immature kid relying on her parents anymore.

Wen Shuyue patted Wen Baobao’s head and said with a smile, “My dear Baobao is now a big chef. With you around, we wouldn’t need to worry that no one will cook for us.”

“Mommy, you must be making fun of me. I only know how to make instant noodles.” Wen Baobao rolled his eyes at Wen Shuyue. Lin Lin, by their side, had already gotten used to this type of tiff that often happened between Wen Shuyue and her son.

Lin Lin stood up, stretched herself, and said listlessly, “I’m sleepy. I got very little sleep last night. Feel free to go to your rooms and unpack your things. Make yourself at home. I’m going to rest now.”

As soon as Lin Lin finished her words, she went straight to her room. Wen Shuyue and Wen Baobao gathered together, cleaned up the room, and then went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

“Mommy, you really don’t miss daddy at all?” Wen Baobao didn’t want to discuss this topic though, but he had always been feeling that if he didn’t say it now, he wouldn’t have the chance in the future.

If neither of them took the initiative, then this relationship would go nowhere but an end, which was definitely the least that Wen Baobao would like to see. He didn’t want both his parents to have another new half. That way, even if they loved him, he would be nothing but an outsider.

Wen Shuyue obviously did not expect that Wen Baobao would mention He Siming. Her face instantly darkened. She swallowed and said in a gentle voice, “Baobao, why did you say that? Nothing would’ve happened between me and him even in the first place. We…”

“You are lying, mommy. My teacher said that if a person is lying, his eyes will be rolling nonstop.” Before Wen Shuyue finished her words, Wen Baobao immediately interrupted her.

Having been caught so easily, Wen Shuyue suddenly felt a bit speechless. She even didn’t know why the baby could be this smart.

Wen Baobao looked at Wen Shuyue attentively and said in a serious voice, “I didn’t go to school today. Dad must’ve known I’m being angry, so he might come to you later today.”

“What!” Wen Shuyue cried out suddenly.

“Mommy, chill. Don’t act up like this. I’m just guessing. I don’t really know whether daddy will come or not. Based on my knowledge about daddy though, he would.” Wen Baobao quickly covered Wen Shuyue’s mouth. If Lin Lin knew this, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just by hearing the name of He Siming and Gu Ning, this woman could now go fully aggressive. Clearly, she didn’t want Wen Shuyue to have any relationship with them anymore.

Wen Shuyue nodded. After calming herself down, she asked seriously, “So what should we do if he really comes?”

“What else can we do? You should explain things to him as it was he that has misunderstood you. He is not stupid. How can he not believe the truth?” Wen Baobao rolled his eyes. He found that he had rolled his eyes very often these days.

But who else was to blame but his mother? Now he believed it was true that women were all fools when they were in love. They could lose all their senses just at the moment when they fell in love. 

Wen Shuyue pursed her lips. If she asked him so directly, she couldn’t really get any answer from him. More importantly, people lived by pride. Even if she did like He Siming, she wouldn’t be so shameless and ask those questions out.

“Mommy, if you keep hesitating, it’s very possible that dad will become someone else’s husband. At that time, it would be too late to regret.” As Wen Shuyue had went silent, Wen Baobao said the same words again.

In fact, the most exhausted person should be Wen Baobao. While trying not to hurt his mother’s feelings, he had to defend his dad. This was exhausting.

Fortunately, Wen Shuyue understood his intention, so she nodded, “Then I’ll explain it to him. But if he really doesn’t believe it, I won’t bother to do this anymore.”

“Yes, there must be an explanation. After all, no attempt, no hope.” Wen Baobao hurriedly nodded and finally smiled in satisfaction.

Under such circumstances, as long as he had a glimmer of hope, he would not let it go. Although he was still a child, he knew many things crystal clear. He was certain that his dad and mom still had feelings for each other.

That said, Wen Shuyue was still a little worried in her heart. Although she was wrong with this matter, she had been feeling that it was He Siming who should take the responsibility. He should not have found someone to supervise her, and he should have not blamed it on her without seeing things through. In short, it’s all his fault.

But…

Someone as arrogant as him would never apologize to her, would him?

“Mommy, if dad comes here today, where do you think he should live?” Wen Baobao suddenly frowned and thought hard about it.

Frightened, Wen Shuyue widened her eyes. She hurriedly stretched out her hand to cover Wen Baobao’s mouth, afraid that Lin Lin would hear his words.

As if he did not expect his mother’s reaction would be so dramatic, Wen Baobao’s eyes kept moving and growled, “Mom, you are suffocating me. I’m going to die from short breath.”

Hearing Wen Baobao’s words, Wen Shuyue quickly released him. She sighed deeply in relief and said blankly, “Baobao, are you sure your daddy will come today? If he didn’t come over, could it be that I have no need to apologize then?”

“To be honest, I don’t know either. But I can feel that dad would do so.” Wen Baobao shook his head, fathoming his mother’s thoughts.

Women were always in disguise. She clearly hoped his dad would come, and yet pretended to be indifferent.

Fortunately, he knew his mother inside out, otherwise he had no idea how to help them. As for his father…

He was indeed unfathomable. He obviously loved her, but sometimes it was difficult to feel. Anyway, he was speechless.

Ta-ta!

Suddenly a sound came from upstairs, and Lin Lin hurried down.

“Only the two of you will stay here tonight. My friend just asked me to drink, and I by no means could refuse it. I might also stay outside tonight. Take care of yourself. Be safe at home.” Lin Lin hastily explained. As soon as she finished her words, she immediately went out.
