Chapter 702: Do You Remember Mommy?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“You have to remember that you only have one daddy. His name is Yan Kuan, and he’s the person you saw just now.”
“Mommy, I don’t think Daddy likes us.”
These were the words that Little Treasure had been holding back all night.
Shen Xiaoxiao stroked his hair and said softly, “No, your daddy likes you very much. When you were still in Mommy’s womb, your daddy was very much looking forward to your arrival. However, due to some misunderstandings later on, your daddy and I were separated for a few years. However, he was always looking for you, so he’s a good daddy. Little Treasure, don’t be afraid.”
“But, Mommy, Da Bao and I still think that Daddy doesn’t like us. And, and he doesn’t like Mommy either.”
The two children looked at each other. When they said the last sentence, they looked so careful that it made Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart suffer.
“Mommy, does Daddy not like you and want to divorce you? The parents of the children in the kindergarten got a divorce. That’s what they said. Daddy doesn’t like Mommy, so he wants to live separately. We’ve always been separated from Daddy. Do Mommy and Daddy want to get a divorce too?”
How was Shen Xiaoxiao going to answer these words? She didn’t know how to answer at all. This was the first time she had shed tears in front of the children.
She couldn’t answer.
Back then, she was so angry that she didn’t contact Yan Kuan. She didn’t expect that her heart would feel better, but it had caused such harm to the children.
She had never thought that it would be like this.
She wasn’t a good mother. She really wasn’t.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Mommy didn’t mean to do this. It’s not like that.”
“Sob sob sob… Mommy, Don’t cry. Mommy, don’t cry…”
Da Bao and Little Treasure were shocked when they saw Shen Xiaoxiao cry. In their memories, Shen Xiaoxiao had always been a strong and great existence. No matter how difficult it was, they had never seen Shen Xiaoxiao cry once.
But now, when they were discussing the topic of their parents’ divorce, the tears could not be stopped.
Now that the children had experienced this at such a young age, in the future, when she was not around, how would Yan Kuan face such fragile children? And what should they do?
She did not dare to imagine what it would be like to lie there like a living dead one day and watch the children grow up without the love and care of a mother.
Like Jiang Wendong?
Or like she used to be?
She did not dare to imagine any of this.
Kacha!
The door opened from the outside.
Shen Xiaoxiao’s back was facing the door. She did not see who opened the door, but the two children’s frightened eyes made Shen Xiaoxiao not even have the courage to look back.
Little Treasure and Da Bao hugged each other tightly. Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart was already in her throat.
“Your mother and I will never get a divorce. You don’t have to worry. You will always be our most beloved children. Forever.”
His deep and hoarse voice miraculously gave people a trace of affirmation in their ears.
His hands were still so strong. He placed his hands on her shoulders so that Shen Xiaoxiao did not dare to move an inch.
It seemed that as long as she moved slightly, the emotions that were like a raging storm that she controlled would surge out.
It would be so crazy that there was no way she would be able to resist.
She played along with him in this moment as a good couple, good parents.
“Don’t you touch Mommy.”
Little Treasure stood up from the water.
Yan Kuan let go of Shen Xiaoxiao’s shoulders, took a side of the bath towel, and wrapped Little Treasure up. No matter how Little Treasure struggled, he did not let go.
“Daddy, don’t hit Little Treasure.”
Da Bao was the most tactful and immediately called out to her father. Yan Kuan was stunned. Seeing the hatred in Little Treasure’s eyes as he stared at him, he was a little shocked.
“Little brat, if you don’t stop, I’m really going to make a move.”
Little Treasure’s personality was very similar to his. He did not fall for this trick at all.
In the end, it was Shen Xiaoxiao who came forward. She took Little Treasure from Yan Kuan’s hands and said, “Bring Da Bao out.”
Shen Xiaoxiao still did not look at him. She carried Little Treasure and walked out.
“Mommy, be good. Mommy, don’t cry. Little Treasure is a man and will protect Mommy.”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s tears were like beads that had their strings cut off, falling bit by bit.
This was the first time in Yan Kuan’s memory that Shen Xiaoxiao had cried so helplessly. Before this, she had always been so proud and had long fangs and five claws.
Even if she cried, she would never compromise.
But this time, it was different.
He stood outside the door and listened to the cries. His wife and son were trapped in the small bathroom, and Xiaoxiao was crying so bitterly.
He almost stabbed himself ruthlessly.
He should be the one who stood tall, who should be the one who held up the sky for them, but he had never taken care of them, never treated them well.
How could he not feel guilty? How could he not feel sorry for them?
Especially Xiaoxiao, the woman he regarded as life.
However, he was the one who hurt her the most.
Da Bao was very obedient. She did not cry or make a fuss. She just looked at Yan Kuan silently.
In the room, Yan Kuan imitated Shen Xiaoxiao’s actions and dried the water for the child first. Then, he took the clothes next to her and put them on for the child.
This was the first time Da Bao had her clothes changed by him when she was almost five years old. It was also the first time he changed clothes for the child.
His movements were unfamiliar and clumsy, but he was very careful. He almost wore her clothes inside out several times without any impatience or anger.
They stood together in an extremely abnormal way of getting along. They did not speak, but they made extremely tacit movements.
It was still the same tiger pajamas. They lay side by side on the bed. Only then did Yan Kuan truly realize that in a few years, the child had grown up from a small stomach to this appearance.
As for him, he had never worried or cared for a single day.
Previously, although he felt sorry for Xiaoxiao and the children, he had never had such a direct interaction with the children, talked about them, or taken care of the children with Xiaoxiao.
Without experiencing it, he did not know what it felt like.
“Your mother and I will never be separated. Daddy will never leave your side again. I promise.”
“Mommy, isn’t Long Xi Daddy?”
Shen Xiaoxiao listened to Little Treasure’s words and did not continue. Instead, Da Bao said, “Little Treasure, Long Xi is wearing a human skin mask. I told you.”
Hearing Da Bao’s words, Little Treasure looked at his parents in front of him and asked, “Is that so?”
“Yes, that’s me. It’s just that I was wearing a human skin mask.”
“But why? Why did you say that I wasn’t your son at that time?”
Little Treasure’s aggressiveness was very similar to Yan Kuan’s. Yan Kuan frowned. He finally knew how difficult his son was to deal with.
“Because I didn’t remember you at that time. I lost my memory.”
“Is it the same as Uncle?”
“Yes.”
“Then do you remember now?”
“I remember now. I won’t forget.”
“Oh, then do you remember Mommy?”
Yan Kuan glanced at Shen Xiaoxiao, who had been silent the whole time, and said firmly, “I remember.. Not only do I remember, I’ve never forgotten.”
