Fu Yuling was pondering how to talk to him, but after thinking about it, she couldn’t bring herself to mention He Jingsi.
“Does Xiao Wen not like Dad?”
She simply changed the way she said it, yet still mentioned He Jingsi.
She rarely heard them mention He Jingsi, so she always assumed that they didn’t like him, which naturally led her not to bring him up.
Upon hearing Fu Yuling mention He Jingsi, He Wen was even more surprised than she was.
“Why did you bring him up?”
Fu Yuling noticed that He Wen didn’t use the intimate term dad to refer to him.
Instead, he referred to him just as “he”, the same way she referred to him.
“I just thought of it suddenly.”
Fu Yuling’s eyes unconsciously darted elsewhere.
He Wen collected his thoughts and didn’t answer the question.
“If he comes back, will you leave?”
He Wen responded by asking her back, mimicking her calm expression, not revealing any feelings.
Seeing this, Fu Yuling couldn’t help but point at his head and said, “Oh, so you’ve learned to act deep with me now, huh!”
He Wen shook his head. “No, I haven’t.”
He took the initiative to grab her and touched her face with his hand. Seeing this, Fu Yuling leaned her head down a bit to make it easier for him to touch her.
“You’ll be unhappy if he returns, and if you’re unhappy, we’ll be very sad.”
His hand still didn’t touch her eyes. Instead, he lowered it and held Fu Yuling’s hand, placing it over his heart, just like when she held He Qiu’s hand over his heart to tell him how precious life is.
Unfortunately, this time it was He Wen using this gesture to convey to her that he would also be sad because she was unhappy.
It seemed like at this moment, something blended into her blood and things started to feel different.
Fu Yuling couldn’t help but feel touched, her eyes misting up. She played with his fingers happily, and for a moment she was at a loss for words.
With too many promises, one might not necessarily be able to keep them all.
So maybe it was better not to make promises. She feared that one day, something would really happen and she wouldn’t be able to be by their side anymore. By that time, she didn’t know how they would feel, but she was sure it would make her very sad.
She wasn’t someone who took feelings too seriously. Even in reality, she only had a few childhood friends and a couple of good friends. Besides the laboratory, she had nothing else.
She knew better than anyone how cold her emotions were. She didn’t like dealing with people, much less going out.
But since coming here, there were a few little ones around her every day, always by her side.
Previously, she thought that once she raised the children, she could let go and leave.
But now, she couldn’t bear to part with them.
This feeling was something she would never be able to give up, she knew that.
The autumn cicadas had stopped chirping, and only a few green leaves were blown down by the wind, swaying and fluttering, really like a dream.
Sometimes, she couldn’t even tell where she was. Would she one day wake up in her familiar room again, and outside was the road she had walked on countless times?
While she was lost in thought, she suddenly felt the surroundings darken. Slowly, she saw He Wen’s terrified expression and realized she had collapsed.
She could clearly feel the pain of her heavy fall to the ground, along with He Wen’s panicked cries as he hugged her.
She slowly separated from her body, becoming a transparent person standing to the side. She watched as He Qiu and the others rushed out in response to He Wen’s commotion. They saw her lying on the ground with her eyes closed and devoid of any life, and she almost fell down at the door.
