Mo Lingwei held Xiu'er's little hand, and felt that the child left her side, not only spoke more, but also seemed to be more courageous, and the fear that had shrouded him gradually faded away.
He grew into a little man.
Xiu'er's ability to become like this can be considered Feng Shaojin's credit.
After Xiu'er finished talking non-stop, Feng Shaojin patted Xiu'er on the back, and said to Mo Lingwei, "I came from the camp too quickly, Xiu'er and I haven't had breakfast yet."
Mo Lingwei stood up quickly: "Then go and eat some first, so as not to starve to death."
Xiu'er slid off Feng Shaojin's lap, "Uncle wants to eat glutinous rice balls, I'll ask the cook to make some."
Saying that, he ran away like a fan.
"Slow down, don't fall." Mo Lingwei was about to catch up when Feng Shaojin grabbed his fingers.
She turned her head and met Shang Feng Shaojin's deep and narrow eyes.
There seemed to be a stream of light flowing from the bottom of the man's eyes, and the yearning that had accumulated for many days was like a tide that was about to submerge him. Seeing that Xiu'er had disappeared without a trace, Feng Shaojin suddenly hugged her.
Mo Lingwei: "..."
The man felt resentful and angry: "You haven't seen Xiu'er for ten days, and you miss Xiu'er terribly. You only have Xiu'er in your eyes, and you can't tolerate anyone else."
Mo Lingwei: "..."
She had indeed made up her mind not to annoy him.
But human instinct is not so easy to change. She has been with him for two years, and she has been used to the previous way of getting along, and she has never tried to please him.
Later, her emotions changed, and she didn't give in much.
Now that Xiu'er is by her side, she has indeed acted falsely.
But when she saw Xiu'er, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, she followed her heart, and it was difficult for her to take care of him.
Mo Lingwei deliberated and said: "Xiu'er is a child, and the child has bumps and bumps. What should I do if I get hurt? Of course I have to give some advice."
"En." Feng Shaojin looked at her noncommittally.
Mo Lingwei said again: "Actually, I...I haven't seen you for ten days, and I also... miss you very much."
"Really?" Feng Shaojin's lips curled up slightly.
Mo Lingwei dodged her eyes, "It's fine if you don't believe me."
"I believe it." Feng Shaojin pinched her delicate chin with callused fingers, forcing her to raise her head: "You and Xiu'er haven't seen each other for ten days, but we actually met once during these ten days, you forgot gone?"
Mo Lingwei: "..."
Really forgot, Feng Shaojin went back to the other courtyard alone once.
Mo Lingwei is not a good liar at all. Seeing that the lie was exposed, she didn't know how to correct it for a moment, so she could only stammer: "I was happy to see you for a while, indeed, indeed I forgot."
"Really happy?" Feng Shaojin asked.
"Of course." Mo Lingwei nodded, her appearance almost convinced her, "I haven't seen you for a long time, of course I'm happy that you can find time to bring Xiu'er back to spend the Lantern Festival with me."
Although she knew that what she said was a lie, Feng Shaojin was still pleased by Mo Lingwei's inappropriate words.
Although he knew very well in his heart that Mo Lingwei was happy only because he finally saw Xiu'er, not him.
Otherwise, how could she not even remember how long they hadn't seen each other?
The truth is wrapped in a perfect and illusory lie, like an anesthetic, which can numb the emptiness and incompleteness in a man's heart.
Feng Shaojin thought, if she could just lie to herself like this for the rest of her life, he would be willing.
It's better than rejecting her thousands of miles away.
Feng Shaojin caressed Mo Lingwei's small face with his rough fingertips, and said in a hoarse voice: "Say more sweet words to me in the future, okay?
I haven't heard you say these words for a long time. "
