The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!-Chapter 825: Do You Still Love Me? (5)
"So, you still don’t believe your Daddy doesn’t love you, right?" Mu Yiliang murmured.
Not only Xiaoze, even she, how could she believe it?
Xiaoze was sullen and didn’t speak.
"Even if he really..." Mu Yiliang paused, then continued, "You still have mommy and me. If you starve yourself, wouldn’t I cry myself to death."
"Then... Mommy, have you eaten?" He lifted his head from her embrace.
Mu Yiliang nodded: "Of course! I wouldn’t be as silly as you."
After speaking, she felt a pang of guilt; actually, she didn’t want to eat earlier, and she had the same thoughts as Xiaoze.
"Alright then, I’ll eat too." Xiaoze finally perked up, "We can definitely make Daddy come back."
Mu Yiliang didn’t refute him, just responded softly.
...
While Xiaoze was eating, Mu Yiliang briefly told him about the events of the past two days, and only then did Xiaoze realize he almost lost all his relatives!
He said with teary eyes: "Is Grandma still unconscious?"
Mu Yiliang nodded: "Yes. But she will get better."
Xiaoze frowned: "So, it’s all because of that woman named Xin, right! If it weren’t for her, Daddy wouldn’t be like this now!"
Mu Yiliang smiled wryly.
Xiaoze angrily mashed the rice in his bowl.
Mu Yiliang gave him some of his favorite dishes: "From now on, you’re not allowed to use hunger strikes as a tactic, understand? Don’t worry, your Daddy will come back. I have a way."
Then he became happy.
Mu Yiliang suddenly thought, did Yan Sijue know Xiaoze wasn’t eating properly and that’s why he agreed to let her see Xiaoze?
She couldn’t help but entertain such thoughts, knowing they were a bit absurd, but still she couldn’t help but feel hopeful.
After a while, Xiaoze finished his meal and couldn’t help but burp, having eaten a lot after being hungry since noon.
Mu Yiliang chuckled helplessly and quickly patted his back to help him digest.
"Mommy, please walk with me on the beach. I don’t want to stay in the room; I feel suffocated." He blinked.
Mu Yiliang hesitated a bit, unsure if Yan Sijue would agree.
But seeing Xiaoze’s hopeful eyes, she couldn’t bear to disappoint him.
"Okay, take your gear, let’s go."
Xiaoze immediately changed into beach shorts and flip-flops, and Mu Yiliang took his hand and left the room without any obstruction.
All the way until they exited through the rear gate of the estate to the beach, no one came to stop them, and Mu Yiliang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The weather had been surprisingly good these days. It was dusk, the sun was setting, still warm but not too hot.
The junction of sea and sky was aglow with golden light, dazzlingly beautiful.
Mu Yiliang’s tense mood over the past two days finally relaxed a bit.
Xiaoze, after all, was still young, unable to hold his worries, and seeing this, he excitedly forgot all his troubles.
"I really want to swim in the sea!" He jumped around on the beach, still shouting.
"No way! You are not allowed near the shore!" Mu Yiliang reacted like facing a major threat.
"I was just saying..." He blinked and came over to pull Mu Yiliang’s hand, "Mommy come over, last time I buried a Ruby under that part of the beach, let’s go treasure hunting!"
