For a moment, Jiang Wan Yu couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Nevertheless, she comforted him, “It’s okay, you’re still young. When you grow up, you’ll meet other girls you like.”
However, as she spoke, she noticed that Dian Dian suddenly looked excited and said, “Oh? Who is it?”
Jiang Wan Yu was taken aback; she hadn’t expected her son to be so quick to move on. “Who is it?”
“It’s Little Apple! When I confess to her, I’ll sing ‘Little Apple’ for her. You are my little apple, and I love you endlessly!” Dian Dian sang with joy.
Jiang Wan Yu was astonished.
Do kids these days fall in love so easily? Compared to adults’ complicated and incomprehensible love lives, it seemed like a walk in the park for them.
“Alright, then give it your best shot,” Jiang Wan Yu chuckled.
“Well, should I say yes to the other girls in our class who want to be my girlfriend?” Dian Dian asked, looking troubled.
Jiang Wan Yu was left speechless.
“As long as you like them, but remember, girls are delicate and lovely little angels. You mustn’t hurt their feelings.” Jiang Wan Yu couldn’t help but shake her head inwardly.
“I know, Mom! I’ll be a little gentleman,” Dian Dian promised.
“Alright, let’s go take a shower now,” Jiang Wan Yu smiled.
Meanwhile, after leaving, Lin Yi Chen remained silent in the car.
Noticing his mood, Xu Ce couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, what’s wrong?”
“Xiaoyu knows that Dian Dian is our child,” Lin Yi Chen said.
Xu Ce was surprised. “How is that possible? How did Madam find out?”
If that were the case, Madam’s intelligence was truly remarkable.
“I accidentally revealed it myself when Dian Dian had a peanut allergy, and she figured it out,” Lin Yi Chen said with a bitter smile.
Xu Ce listened, and felt perplexed. “But did you tell her that it was to protect her and the child, that’s why you had to do it?”
In this situation, it might be better to be upfront and explain everything instead of letting misunderstandings fester.
“I told her, but she won’t believe me,” Lin Yi Chen replied.
“But if you don’t tell her, how will she know?” Xu Ce said almost instinctively.
Lin Yi Chen immediately looked at him coldly. “What if she still refuses to forgive me?”
He couldn’t afford to take that risk. He recalled how difficult it was for him when Jiang Wan Yu left him four years ago. He was powerless and couldn’t protect the woman he loved.
Would Jiang Wan Yu be disappointed in him now that she knew the truth?
Xu Ce’s neck felt cold as he heard Lin Yi Chen’s response, but he continued, “Boss, forgive me for speaking bluntly, but Madam is not that kind of person. Moreover, she has also suffered, but what about you? You’ve sacrificed just as much, even risking your life multiple times. If she doesn’t forgive you after learning the truth, it would only mean that her love for you… is not what you thought.”
Jiang Wan Yu had a tough six months when she left, but Boss had it even harder, suffering severe injuries multiple times for the sake of providing them with a safe environment.
