Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 584 - 528: Jun and Your Liangsheng Ending, Part 2: Be Kinder to Me
"Why not?"
Huo Shaojun’s heart ached intensely, his deep voice uncharacteristically hoarse, "You love me, and I love you. Why can’t we start over? Tongtong..."
"I don’t love you anymore." Jian Liangtong gently interrupted him, saying.
Huo Shaojun’s breath suddenly stopped, the eyes hidden behind tea-colored sunglasses covered with a deep red.
Jian Liangtong could even feel his hand holding her fingers, trembling imperceptibly.
Jian Liangtong frowned slightly.
She lowered her head to look at the spot over her left heart.
There, there was not the slightest feeling.
"Say it again." Huo Shaojun stared at Jian Liangtong, his grip on her fingers so strong as if he wanted to break them one by one.
Jian Liangtong’s delicate brows moved, she lifted her eyelids, her clear eyes clearly reflecting Huo Shaojun’s face, she said, "I don’t love you anymore."
Huo Shaojun thought, if his heart was an independent life form, at this moment, it would have been killed!
Jian Liangtong tidied up and returned to the restaurant, taking some food that Hao Hao liked to the dining table.
Hao Hao eagerly waiting, finally saw Jian Liangtong return.
His little forehead scrunched up with dissatisfaction, his small mouth pursed as he stared at Jian Liangtong.
Jian Liangtong’s expression remained unchanged, she placed the food in front of Hao Hao with an apologetic smile, "Waited long?"
Hao Hao huffed.
Jian Liangtong stuck out her tongue awkwardly, sitting opposite him, helping him shell the crab meat.
Hao Hao glanced at her, then raised his little neck, looking around the restaurant.
Jian Liangtong placed the crab meat on his plate, "Baby, eat up."
Hao Hao blinked, looking at Jian Liangtong, seemingly talking to himself, "Strange, where did daddy go?"
Jian Liangtong acted as if she didn’t hear Hao Hao, focusing on getting crab meat for him.
Hao Hao’s fair little face wrinkled, staring at Jian Liangtong for a while, then suddenly said, "I’m going to find daddy."
Jian Liangtong paused slightly with the knife and fork in her hands, then continued, "He had to leave for something, let’s eat, okay?"
Jian Liangtong placed a piece of crab meat on Hao Hao’s plate and smiled at him gently.
Hao Hao, "..."
Jian Liangtong noticed that since learning Huo Shaojun had "something to do" and left, Hao Hao’s mood hadn’t been very high that afternoon.
After leaving the aquarium, Jian Liangtong took Hao Hao to the mall, intending to buy him some clothes.
Although she knew, at the Huo Family, they wouldn’t let him lack anything in terms of food and clothing.
But she just wanted to buy for him.
They walked into a children’s clothing store.
Jian Liangtong picked out four outfits in one go for Hao Hao to try on in the fitting room.
Hao Hao pursed his lips, but seeing Jian Liangtong’s expectant look at him, not wanting to disappoint her, he took the clothes to the fitting room.
Jian Liangtong stood at the fitting room door, wanting to help several times but was sternly refused by Hao Hao.
Hao Hao was too skinny, even the smallest sized clothes seemed a bit off when worn on him.
Patiently trying on all the clothes, Hao Hao finally changed back into his own clothes and came out of the fitting room.
Seeing Jian Liangtong standing silently outside, looking at him, Hao Hao paused slightly.
Jian Liangtong sniffed, and opened her arms to Hao Hao, "Come here."
Hao Hao was stunned again, eyes showing confusion, but still walked over to Jian Liangtong in the end.
Jian Liangtong bent down a little, holding Hao Hao tightly in her arms, constantly kissing his little face.
Hao Hao was quite confused, dazedly letting Jian Liangtong kiss him.
"Hao Hao, mom can’t take you home right now to live with you, don’t blame me." Jian Liangtong said.
Hao Hao’s eyes dimmed slightly, nodding silently.
Jian Liangtong rested her chin on his small shoulder, "But mom will strive, strive to grow strong. Mom promises you, once I am strong enough, I will definitely bring you back to my side."
Hao Hao said nothing, extending his arms to gently hug Jian Liangtong’s neck.
She bought all the clothes Hao Hao tried on.
Then Jian Liangtong and Hao Hao left the mall.
In the evening, while Jian Liangtong and Hao Hao were dining at a small restaurant, she remembered the fried eggs He Xinyun made in the morning.
Hurriedly, she took a thermos box from her bag and placed it on the table.
The fried eggs were completely cold.
Jian Liangtong shrugged, saying to Hao Hao, "It’s cold."
"It’s okay, I can eat it." Hao Hao clumsily picked up a piece of fried egg with chopsticks and fed it to his small mouth.
"Just have one bite." Jian Liangtong said, fearing Hao Hao might get an upset stomach.
Hao Hao shook his head, "I want to eat, it’s very tasty."
Jian Liangtong affectionately patted Hao Hao’s head, "If it’s tasty, mom will ask grandma to make it for you next time."
"..."
Hao Hao suddenly stopped talking, burying his little head and taking big bites of the fried egg.
Jian Liangtong’s eyes flashed with surprise, pursing her lips as she stared at Hao Hao.
Hao Hao quickly finished one fried egg and went to pick another from the insulated container.
Jian Liangtong reached out to hold Hao Hao’s hand, looking at him with concern, and softly said, "What’s wrong, baby?" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Hao Hao shook his head, still keeping his head down.
Feeling something was off, Jian Liangtong took the chopsticks from Hao Hao’s little hand and placed them on the table.
With one hand, she gently lifted Hao Hao’s small face.
Hao Hao seemed to want to dodge and avoid her gaze.
Jian Liangtong used both hands to hold his small face, and when she saw his reddened eyes, her own eyes tightened, and her voice turned hoarse with tension and worry, "Hao Hao..."
Hao Hao couldn’t avoid it, looking at Jian Liangtong with some grievance and sadness in his big, reddened eyes, "Mom, do grandma and grandpa not like me anymore?"
Jian Liangtong’s heart tightened, "Why would Hao Hao think that?"
"I haven’t seen grandma and grandpa for a year already," Hao Hao said with a small hoarse voice.
Jian Liangtong gazed at Hao Hao, softly guiding him with her question, "Does Hao Hao think that grandma and grandpa haven’t visited you in the past year because they don’t like you? Or is there another reason?"
The redness in Hao Hao’s eyes deepened, and he pressed his lips tightly, looking at Jian Liangtong without speaking.
Seeing this, Jian Liangtong had a vague understanding.
The little guy must have thought that Jian Ningfeng and He Xinyun hadn’t visited him because they didn’t like him.
Although Jian Liangtong didn’t know the reason why Jian Ningfeng and He Xinyun hadn’t visited Hao Hao, she was sure it wasn’t because they didn’t like him.
Jian Liangtong was silent for a few seconds, then earnestly looked at Hao Hao and said, "Baby, do you remember last year when you had your birthday, grandma and grandpa took leave in advance and took a train to come to S City to celebrate your birthday? But the train had an accident just before reaching S City and couldn’t operate normally. Grandma and grandpa were stuck on the train for two days and two nights before they finally arrived in S City. Grandma even caught a cold on the train and was hospitalized as soon as she arrived in S City. Even so, she was thinking about not being able to celebrate your birthday and left the hospital after half a day to personally make a birthday cake for you and cook many of your favorite dishes. We even recorded a video that night. Do you remember?"
Huo Tinghao solemnly nodded, "Of course, I remember."
How could he possibly forget?
Jian Liangtong smiled gently, softly stroking Hao Hao’s head, "So, do you still think that grandma and grandpa don’t like you?"
Last year, on Hao Hao’s birthday, Jian Ningfeng and He Xinyun didn’t tell Jian Liangtong and Hao Hao they were coming to S City to surprise them.
After Jin Jumo celebrated Hao Hao’s birthday, he left S City the next morning. Jian Ningfeng and He Xinyun arrived in the afternoon, and Jian Liangtong found out they came specially for Hao Hao’s birthday and almost got into an accident on the train.
She had no doubt about Jian Ningfeng and He Xinyun’s love and cherish for Hao Hao.
So, she was sure.
Jian Ningfeng and He Xinyun must have some other reason for not visiting Hao Hao.
As for what the reason might be...
Jian Liangtong’s eyes slightly narrowed.
"Then why haven’t grandma and grandpa visited Hao Hao for so long?" Huo Tinghao softly asked.
Jian Liangtong’s eyelashes slightly fluttered as her hands slid down from his little face, gently holding his soft little hand, "Grandma and grandpa must have their reasons and difficulties for not visiting Hao Hao. Mommy hopes you won’t misunderstand them. Because in this world, grandma and grandpa, just like mommy, treat Hao Hao as their precious baby."
Precious baby...
Huo Tinghao’s ears turned a bit red, blinking shyly and softly saying, "I know."
Jian Liangtong lifted the corners of her lips, pinching his cheek, and said, "Eat quickly, or the food will get cold."
"Mm."
With Jian Liangtong’s explanation, Hao Hao came to understand that Jian Ningfeng and He Xinyun didn’t visit him because of unavoidable reasons, not because they didn’t like him.
The knot in his heart seemed to be untied instantly.
Hao Hao half-smiled with the corners of his mouth, asking indistinctly while eating, "Mom, when can I go to see grandma and grandpa? I miss them."
Jian Liangtong smiled, "How about after we finish eating, I’ll take you to see grandma and grandpa?"
"Really?" Hao Hao looked up in surprise, his eyes bright and shiny.
"Mm-hmm." Jian Liangtong raised her eyebrows.
Hao Hao immediately inhaled with joy, and his eating speed increased significantly.
Plans can’t keep up with changes.
After leaving the small restaurant, Jian Liangtong was about to call a taxi to take Hao Hao back to the Four Seasons District.
But just as she reached the roadside, before she could raise her hand to hail a cab, a black sedan suddenly slid to a stop in front of her.
Both Jian Liangtong and Hao Hao were taken aback, and then, with synchronized expressions of surprise, they looked at the black car that stopped in front of them.
The car door opened, and Guan Yu, wearing a white T-shirt and dark jeans, stepped out from the driver’s seat.
Jian Liangtong’s almond eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing Guan Yu.
Guan Yu approached with a sheepish smile on his face, "Done eating?"
"..." Jian Liangtong pursed her lips, her dark pupils fixed on Guan Yu.
Guan Yu awkwardly scratched his head, pointing at Hao Hao, and said, "I’m here to pick up Hao Hao."
After a pause, Guan Yu added, "On official orders."
Jian Liangtong’s face slightly collapsed at this, causing a lump in Guan Yu’s heart, and he inhaled sharply, "There’ll be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future, why... you know what I mean, right?"
What he didn’t say was clear to Jian Liangtong’s heart.
That certain someone is now Hao Hao’s legal guardian; if she offends him, this could very well be her last time seeing Hao Hao.
