That night, Su Qing helped Xiao Muer take a bath and coaxed her to sleep as usual.
Although her belly was big, it was inconvenient for her to do many things.
But little Mu'er was extremely obedient and sensible, and she didn't have any of the temper she had when she was a spoiled child around Su Qing.
Not only did I learn to do many things by myself, but I also learned how to take care of my mother.
Xiao Muer’s children’s bed is right next to Su Qing’s big bed.
The reason they don't sleep together is that they are afraid that Xiao Mu'er will accidentally turn over after falling asleep and press on Su Qing's belly.
But even so, the mother and daughter still developed the habit of kissing each other and saying good night to each other before going to bed.
That night, Su Qing covered Xiao Mu'er with a blanket as usual and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.
"Goodnight, baby, goodnight..."
"Goodnight, Mommy..."
Xiao Muer responded sweetly, but her little hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Su Qing's pajamas sleeve.
"What's wrong, baby?" The little guy seemed a little different from usual tonight.
Even though Mu'er didn't say anything, Su Qing could feel it.
"Is there something hidden in your heart? Baby, just tell mommy if you have any. Mommy will try her best to help you find a solution." Su Qing coaxed Mu'er patiently.
She always has the utmost patience with her daughter.
"Um..." Mu'er shook her head and said softly, "Mu'er is fine, Mu'er just... misses daddy."
Qiao Muer spoke the last few words more and more quietly, and in the end, her voice was almost inaudible.
'I miss my daddy...'
Mu'er missed Qiao Mohan.
When Su Qing heard her daughter say this, her soft and sweet almond-shaped eyes were slightly startled.
The eyes that had been filled with smiles every day since she came to this small town and had forgotten the pain of the past, could not help but tighten.
Su Qing didn't expect Qiao Muer to say that.
The days here are carefree, and I almost forget the troubles back home in China.
Especially after she came here, she hadn't seen Qiao Mohan for nearly half a year, and there was no news that Qiao Mohan was looking for her.
She... she even felt relieved.
Love
Of course not.
But let it go
I can never let go.
Just like, she could never accept Yi Nanfeng...
Some people are probably destined to be together. Once they fall in love, even if they get hurt, their whole heart will only beat for that person.
However, emotions cannot be controlled, but reason can.
Su Qing, who had suffered enough hurt, had already isolated someone from her thoughts.
Not thinking about it, not caring about it, not paying attention to it, that's her attitude towards Qiao Mohan now.
But now, when Su Qing suddenly heard Xiao Muer mention it, such an unguarded mention, she felt that her heart, which had been calm for a long time, was inadvertently aching.
"Daddy... After Mommy gives birth to your little brother, Mommy will ask Godmother Xinluo to take you back to see him. Mu'er misses Daddy, just bear with it for a while, and you will be able to see Daddy soon."
Su Qing was a little hesitant when speaking.
She said it reluctantly.
I can't bear to let my daughter grow up in a single-parent environment. For the sake of her growth, she should not be prevented from seeing her father.
But Su Qing was really afraid that once Qiao Mohan saw Qiao Muer, he would snatch her away and not let her come back.
All these emotions were well concealed by Su Qing.
She coaxed Qiao Muer to sleep, but after she lay down, she tossed and turned.
I finally fell asleep, but in my dream, I kept flashing through the scene of Qiao Mohan snatching away Mu'er and the newborn baby in her belly.
That was a fear rooted deep in her memory. (To be continued)
