Chapter 246 - If Only Cheap Daddy Were Here
Gu Xie’s eyelids slightly fluttered but did not open. The two women stopped their behavior for a while, and when the plane was going to land, Tong Hua still did not have any signs of waking up at all. They prompted a few times halfway, and Shen Qianshu was pestered beyond endurance. She hated these kinds of fans the most.
The two ladies were whispering to each other and were really agitated throughout the whole flight for unknown reasons. Shen Qianshu and Lin Xiaojuan had no sleepiness at all. Qianshu had slight air sickness and could not concentrate to read a book, unlike how Gu Xie could single-mindedly read one. They started softly talking about interesting encounters.
Lin Xiaojuan talked about the jewelry competition. She and Tong Hua were watching the live broadcast that day, and it was also not convenient for Lin Xiaojuan to ask about Ye Ling in public. She was too caught up in her grief these few days that she had forgotten to ask Shen Qianshu about it.
“Do you owe me an explanation?” Lin Xiaojuan asked.
“Tong Hua already told you?”
“Yes, he told me everything in detail,” Lin Xiaojuan said. “Recently, I have the will but not the power to care about your matters.”
“I am fine,” Shen Qianshu said. She felt guilty every time she talked about the jewelry competition. In the end, she still deceived Ye Ling. Master scolded Shen Lin in front of the whole national audience for her. He gave up his reputation and helped her to fight against the world, but she was compelled against her will and could not tell him the truth.
“The person he said that day was you, right? Is it the truth?”
“Juan, can you not ask?”
“Alright.” Lin Xiaojuan was also very forthright and did not press her anymore. She thought of how Tong Hua’s face was always pained and filled with hatred every time he mentioned Shen Lin. She started having her suspicions, but she would not press for answers if Qianshu was unwilling to talk about it.
The two of them talked about the interesting things that happened to them in high school. In a blink of an eye, so many years had already passed, and they were all grown up.
The road to growing up was filled with many setbacks. They came out of it torn and tattered, but still, they would always use a gentle and kind heart to face the world.
This was the luckiest thing.
Both of them talked about their interesting memories throughout the whole flight and midway, proceeded to talk about traveling, food, and everything under the moon. They seemed to have endless topics to talk about. There were very few close friends like them that could have endless topics to talk about even after so many years. Every topic was fresh and interesting, and they chatted until the plane landed. Tong Hua woke up leisurely and was slightly cranky. He rubbed his eyes while yawning lightly and gently hugged Shen Qianshu’s arm.
“Mommy, carry me.”
Shen Qianshu pinched his cheeks. Tong Hua started feeling sleepy again and tugged on her arm lovingly. “Mommy, I don’t feel like walking. Can you carry me?”
“Young man, Mommy has no strength to carry you anymore.” Her baby was already a grown young man. She also wished to be able to carry him.
“Tong Hua, your mommy has air sickness. Be careful, she might vomit all over you!” Xiaojuan purposely scared him.
Tong Hua tugged on Qianshu’s arm again and said, “I don’t mind!”
Shen Qianshu did not know whether to laugh or cry. When this young man started acting cute, he would cause everybody to become weak and powerless. Tong Hua mumbled. “If only cheap daddy were here, he could carry me.”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Baby, are you sure you want him to carry you?
You are not his little princess.
She finally understood clearly. Ye Ling would not even hug his biological son, what more a cheap son.
Lin Xiaojuan was on her phone, and the manager chat group was flooded with messages. It was total chaos. Lin Xiaojuan was terribly annoyed and did not bother to see all of them. She read the news for a while and saw that Gu Xie was being attacked quite badly by people without any evidence. Luckily, he was an international star with no scandals, and his fans and work studio were also really supportive. They kept digging out Yan Jianming’s scandals, and during the few short hours of their flight, quite a number of Yan Jianming’s scandals were dug out.
