Chapter 121: The Two Pains in Life
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Little Tong Hua squatted in a small shop, played with the tortoises, and was oblivious to what was happening.
He was a gifted student. The previous time, he was cluelessly kissing and only knew how to be aggressive. This time, he already knew the techniques and how to seduce her, guiding her to breathe together with him. Shen Qianshu put her head against his chest and tried to push him away forcefully. Ye Ling bit deeply onto her lips, causing Shen Qianshu to feel pain.
“AH…” Her lips were bright and seducing with a hint of wetness, causing people to develop dirty thoughts. Shen Qianshu glared at him. Her lips were numb and in pain. It was really a strong bite. “Why did you bite me?”
It was so painful.
“It’s painful?”
“You don’t say?”
“I am not the one in pain.”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Why did he bite her?
She had no idea.
It was said that during the toddler phase, a person’s mental capacity was not fully developed yet. They would grab whatever they liked and put it into their mouths to chew. It symbolized their love for it.
Little Tong Hua walked out from the shop, waved his hands, and shouted, “Mommy, Mommy…”
Shen Qianshu glared at Ye Ling and walked towards Tong Hua. Ye Ling looked at his bracelet in satisfaction.
It was indeed quite ugly.
Yeah, but he did not despise it.
Little Tong Hua saw some small ornaments that he liked and bought ten at one shot. He was delighted.
One of them was also claimed to be an antique, Shen Qianshu felt that the owner most likely cheated Tong Hua seeing how he was foolish and rich. Tong Hua loved it a lot, and Ye Ling was also in a good mood; thus, he took out his card and bought it for three hundred thousand lira.
They spent five hundred thousand lira in this gloomy and small alley filled with old grandpas and grandmas, earning them the biggest purchaser title of the day.
“Thigh!” Little Tong Hua hugged Ye Ling’s thigh and said, “I have decided not to rebuke you for one hour.”
What were principles? It was temporarily locked away at home.
The day flew past really quickly, and Tong Hua Little Master returned with many purchases and was very happy.
Just as Ye Ling reached the hotel, Zhong Ran passed him the phone and said, “Master, Major Mu Yuan’s call.”
Ye Ling took the phone. It was not known what Major Mu Yuan said, but Ye Ling frowned and said, “I understand. I will be there immediately.”
Ye Ling hung up the phone and said, “Prepare the helicopter.”
“Yes!”
Ye Ling left in a hurry and did not manage to bid Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua goodbye. Shen Qianshu knew he left. It was evening, and she was preparing to sleep when Ye Ling sent her a message: ‘I have reached Greece.’
What?
I just went for a shower, and you have crossed the national borders already??
Little Tong Hua was exhausted today and had fallen asleep long ago. He was tucked in his blankets and sleeping soundly. Shen Qianshu, on the other hand, could not fall asleep anymore.
She sent an emoticon to Ye Ling.
An emoticon of someone vomiting blood.
Even though he needed to leave, he should had at least informed her and not left silently.
What happened to the promise of going on a trip tomorrow?
Their friendship was really as thin as paper.
Ye Ling did not reply to her anymore. Shen Qianshu gave up and turned her phone off. She pulled the blankets and went to sleep.
However, she could not fall asleep.
Tossing and turning, she was having insomnia.
The ambiguous feeling between them was like a piece of paper, hidden in her heart and not willing to be pierced through. She had always been blind, blind in her heart and in her eyes. Ye Ling did not wrongly accuse her, and right at this moment, she was still acting blind.
Loving someone but not being able to hold on: that was life’s first pain.
Holding on but letting it escape: that was life’s second pain.
She had experienced both before.
It was unforgettable.
Seven years ago, she fell in love with Ye Ling, but she was left with pain.
Seven years ago, she received a precious gift from God, but he was tragically taken away from her.
She thought that she would never dare to touch it again.
It was an old wound, and throughout these seven years, it had always been fresh and bloody. It was not to be seen, not to be mentioned, and not to be touched.
In this life, she just wished to peacefully spend the rest of her time together with Tong Hua.
She was not willing to admit that she hated Ye Ling. Because once she acknowledged that fact, everything she had and everything she lost would all become a joke. Thus, she pretended not to hate anymore.
Pretending, pretending, and as time passed, she took it for real.
Shen Qianshu flipped over, and her fingers touched Tong Hua’s face softly.
As long as Mommy has you, I’m content.
