1444 Sensible
Looking at Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan lingering, Yu Qian snorted softly. “Why? Are you preparing to stay here for the rest of your life?”
Xia Wanyuan nodded at Jun Shiling. Jun Shiling’s eyes were already red. He hugged Xia Wanyuan one last time. “I’ll pick you up and bring you home.”
Xia Wanyuan smiled at Jun Shiling, tiptoed, and kissed him on the cheek.
Yu Qian had already gotten someone to carry Little Xiaxia away. Seeing that the ship was about to leave the coast, Xia Wanyuan made up her mind. “Don’t worry, I can take good care of myself.”
!!
Jun Shiling did not ask Xia Wanyuan to stay. He stood by the beach and quietly watched her leave. The setting sun was abnormally beautiful that day. Under the multicolored light, Xia Wanyuan gradually disappeared from his sight.
Yu Qian sat on the boat with Little Xiaxia in his arms. Looking at Xia Wanyuan walking over, the corners of Yu Qian’s lips curled up slightly. “Look, your so-called true love is nothing much. No matter what reason it is, didn’t he still abandon you in the end?”
Xia Wanyuan stood on the deck and looked in Jun Shiling’s direction from afar. “You’ll never understand.”
To her and Jun Shiling, the most important thing was no longer whether they guarded each other. She knew very well that Jun Shiling would always wait for her, so she had the confidence to leave with Yu Qian.
Knowing that someone was waiting, this kind of departure was not painful. Leaving without anyone waiting was the most terrifying.
Looking at Xia Wanyuan’s confident side profile, displeasure appeared in Yu Qian’s eyes. His grip on Little Xiaxia tightened slightly.
Little Xiaxia felt a little painful from his grip and subconsciously snorted twice. Only then did Yu Qian relax Little Xiaxia’s arm. He sneered. “Naive, you don’t understand men.”
Xia Wanyuan turned to look at Yu Qian. “I don’t need to understand others. I just need to understand Jun Shiling.”
Yu Qian narrowed his eyes slightly. He snorted softly and placed Little Xiaxia in Xia Wanyuan’s arms, then left the deck. No matter how one looked at his back, he looked a little angry.
At this moment, on the coast, the last corner of the setting sun was hidden in the deep clouds. The moon hung high, and Jun Shiling was still standing on the spot. He looked into the distance quietly with an unknown expression. Even Lin Jing, who was the best at guessing Jun Shiling, was a little unclear what Jun Shiling was thinking.
Seeing time pass minute by minute, Lin Jing could not help but walk forward. “CEO Jun.”
Jun Shiling replied and retracted his gaze from afar. Then, he turned around. “Let’s go.”
Lin Jing looked at Jun Shiling’s expression worriedly, but he realized that Jun Shiling was neither sad nor happy, as if nothing had happened. Furthermore, for some reason, Lin Jing felt that he was a little familiar.
After following Jun Shiling for a few steps, Lin Jing suddenly thought of why he felt familiar.
In the past two years, Jun Shiling, who had been with Xia Wanyuan, had been too rich in the mortal world. Lin Jing had almost forgotten what Jun Shiling had been like in the past.
And today, the original Jun Shiling was back.
He seemed to be in control of everything, but he also seemed to have lost interest in everything. It was as if the center of his entire person had been pulled out, leaving only that shell and his soul as nothingness.
Lin Jing sighed silently in his heart. He sincerely hoped that Xia Wanyuan could return as soon as possible. To be honest, he really could not stand Jun Shiling like this.
If Xia Wanyuan had never appeared and he had not felt that contrast, it would have been fine. However, Xia Wanyuan had once stayed in Jun Shiling’s world. She had brought Jun Shiling so much life and warmth. Now that Xia Wanyuan had left, Jun Shiling had become cold again.
Thinking of Old Master Jun, Xiao Bao, and Xiao Jiajin in Beijing, Lin Jing sighed in his heart. How did such a good family end up like this?
In the manor, Little Jiajin was especially mischievous tonight. No matter how Xiao Bao coaxed him, he was unwilling to sleep, let alone allow the butler and servants to approach. As long as outsiders approached, Little Jiajin would cry.
It was not until late at night that Little Jiajin fell asleep to Xiao Bao’s singing.
Xiao Bao touched his brother’s eyelashes and pursed his lips sadly. “Brother, when do you think Daddy and Mommy will be able to come back?”
Little Jiajin did not speak and lay peacefully, as if nothing could disturb him. His curled eyelashes gently swept across his face, attracting Xiao Bao’s interest.
Little Jiajin seemed to have sensed that someone was teasing him. He subconsciously waved his hand and inadvertently held Xiao Bao.
Feeling the small force transmitted from his brother’s hand, Xiao Bao’s heart inexplicably ached. He pinched Little Jiajin’s face. “Fortunately, you’re with me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do.”
At this moment, Xiao Bao acutely heard a car enter the courtyard outside. He was too familiar with Jun Shiling’s car. Just from the sound, he knew that Jun Shiling was back.
Xiao Bao gently pulled his hand out of Little Jiajin’s fist. He ran downstairs excitedly and saw Jun Shiling walking in.
Xiao Bao ran towards Jun Shiling. “Daddy!!!”
Jun Shiling picked Xiao Bao up and touched his face. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
Xiao Bao kept looking behind Jun Shiling. “Daddy, didn’t Uncle Bo Xiao say that you went to look for Mommy? Why isn’t Mommy back?”
Hearing Xiao Bao’s words, Jun Shiling was silent for a moment. He looked at Xiao Bao’s expectant eyes and placed him on the ground. Then, he squatted down and spoke to Xiao Bao.
“Your mother has something on and won’t be back for a while.”
“How long?” Xiao Bao’s eyes were filled with confusion.
“Maybe a few years.” When he said this, Jun Shiling tightened his grip on Xiao Bao’s shoulder, making it hurt.
However, at this moment, he was not in the mood to care if he hurt. There were already tears in Xiao Bao’s eyes. “Daddy, did something happen to Mommy?”
Jun Shiling pulled Xiao Bao into his arms and gently stroked his head. “No, when you grow up, she’ll definitely come back.”
Xiao Bao broke free from Jun Shiling’s arms and ran upstairs. After a while, Xiao Bao took out his school bag and placed a large pile of awards and all sorts of books and exercise books.
“Daddy, I’ve already grown up. I know how to be sensible. Look at how obedient I’ve been recently. I earned many little red flowers. Mommy said that if I can get ten little red flowers this semester, she’ll accompany me to the amusement park. Can you let Mommy come back? I won’t make her angry anymore.”
