“Not true,” Li Zhenting’s handsome face darkened. “Daddy saved her and took her to the hospital. She’s perfectly fine.”
“You’re lying,” Ding Ding vehemently argued, “She comes to be with me every night. Why isn’t she here today? It’s clear that she has already drowned.”
Ding Ding pouted, tears streaming down one after another.
Li Zhenting, seeing his heartbroken appearance, couldn’t help but feel both amused and exasperated. He reluctantly took out his phone and tried to call Shen Ning.
However, after several attempts, it kept saying that her phone was switched off.
He furrowed his brows.
Did this woman have no manners left? Clearly, it was her time to be with Ding Ding now, and not only did she not show up, but she also didn’t even take leave. What did she take him for?
“I told you, she’s already dead,” Ding Ding, convinced that Shen Ning was gone since his dad couldn’t find her, burst into louder sobs, his little nose twitching.
“Ding Ding, Daddy promises you, she hasn’t died,” Li Zhenting said, also feeling helpless, resorting to making a solemn oath.
But Ding Ding didn’t believe him at all, he just cried even harder.
Just when Li Zhenting was at his wit’s end, they suddenly heard hurried footsteps from downstairs.
Li Zhenting’s face couldn’t help but show a hint of joy. Despite the urgency in the footsteps, he instantly recognized them as Shen Ning’s.
“Ding Ding.” Shen Ning was drenched in sweat after a busy day of moving. The suburban location was quite a distance away, and the road conditions weren’t great, with traffic jams delaying even the taxi. She rushed up and saw Ding Ding with tear-stained cheeks, looking at her. His bright, starry eyes melted her heart instantly.
She hurried over precisely because she was afraid Ding Ding might be waiting for her. Indeed, her son had been waiting for her. His unwavering affection touched her deeply.
“Auntie,” Ding Ding, with his incredibly adorable face, finally broke into a genuine smile. He reached out his hands towards her and said, “You didn’t die, Auntie.”
Shen Ning was taken aback and rushed to embrace him. “Auntie is perfectly fine. How could Auntie die? Auntie will find a way to stay alive for Ding Ding’s sake.”
She meant every word. For the sake of her children, she would do everything in her power to stay alive and protect them from harm.
As Ding Ding’s small body nestled into her arms, he became quiet and obedient. Shen Ning had no resistance to his charms. She picked him up and headed towards the bedroom, whispering gently, “I’m sorry, Ding Ding. There was heavy traffic today, which caused a delay. I’ll make sure to arrive on time next time.”
“Auntie, you have to come every day. I can’t sleep without seeing you,” Ding Ding’s voice was sweet and tender, with a hint of lingering melody.
Shen Ning’s heart melted into a puddle. She placed Ding Ding on the sofa, pinched his nose, and softly replied, “You’re a little man now. It’s not good to depend on someone to sleep. It’s a bad habit.”
“I don’t care. 1 just want Mommy to be with me,” Ding Ding whispered softly in Shen Ning’s ear.
Shen Ning smiled sweetly.
Suddenly, a cold beam of light hit her, and she raised her eyes to find Li Zhenting standing there with a cold expression.
However, she only gave him a brief glance before getting busy with her tasks.
Li Zhenting watched them, their mother-and-son-like interaction, with a pensive look.
“Auntie, can you stay tonight and sleep with me?” After a while, he also went to the bathroom to take a bath. When he came out, he saw Shen Ning sitting by Ding Ding’s bedside, engaged in conversation. Ding Ding, with his little face held high, earnestly made the request..
