Chapter 712: 714 Huanhuan be good, don’t cry (2)_1
In winter, she always woke up in the middle of the night because she was not covered with her blanket.
In summer, she always woke up from the heat without having taken off her clothes.
Sometimes, she would take her pillow to her mother’s room, but her mother always turned her away.
Back then she thought her mother was heartless, but now, realizing that perhaps her mother was even more distressed than she, her mother was just protecting her!
Every word and action of her mother’s was under the surveillance of the Wen Family.
Without such protection, who knows if she would still be here today?
The little one stared at the distracted Che Huan, leaning in, "Huanhuan, I heard the baby call me ’brother’ oh."
Che Huan looked down at the little one.
With utmost seriousness, the little one said, "Really oh. The baby also told me, ’Brother, tell mom not to be sad oh, if mom is sad, the baby will be sad too’."
Che Huan, looking at the little one’s expression, reached out and gently pinched his cheek.
The little one smiled warmingly at Che Huan, "Huanhuan, that..."
He wanted to speak well of Huo Jinnan and lifted his head to cautiously gauge Che Huan’s expression.
Che Huan, looking at the little one, seemed to guess his thoughts but said nothing.
The little one pursed his lips, whispering softly, "Huanhuan, Huo Jinnan’s father is Huo Jinnan’s father, Huo Jinnan is Huo Jinnan..."
Seeing Huanhuan’s expression, the little one suddenly found himself at a loss for words, unsure of what to say next.
Che Huan looked at the little one, took a deep breath, and looked out the window.
She thought back to Li City and how it made sense that her mother was so opposed to it after finding out.
And then later, when she met Zhong Qin’s mother, she agreed to them -
There were so many things between the two people, and if Huo Jinyun and the old master of Huo Family eventually received their deserved punishment, so should Huo Qichang!
Then... what about the friendship between her mother and Zhong Qin’s mother?
No matter how bad Huo Qichang was, he was still Zhong Qin’s husband, still their father.
When that time came, what would she and he do?
Could they truly act as if nothing had happened, just like before?
Lying in the hospital bed, she gazed out the window, lost in thought for a long time.
The little one looked at Che Huan and muttered softly, "Huanhuan, Huo Jinnan is innocent too. Don’t be angry with him, okay? Don’t abandon him, okay?"
Che Huan looked at the little one but said nothing.
The little one gently tugged at Che Huan’s shirt sleeve, "Huanhuan, you won’t abandon me too, will you?"
Seeing the little one’s aggrieved and frightened appearance, a pang of sadness struck Che Huan’s heart, "I won’t."
The little one let out a small sigh of relief, "What about Huo Jinnan?"
Che Huan, looking at the little one, stroked his cheek, "Mom won’t let you become a child without a father."
The little one let out a big sigh of relief, "Huanhuan, then should I call him in?"
Che Huan grabbed his hand, looked at the little one—actually, he must have already known, right? Known everything, right?
That must be why Che Zhiqiang could so decisively divorce her mother back in Li City!
Was he always protecting her?
She bowed her head, staring at the floor, and thought back to Yunshang, the first time they met; when she mentioned her uncle’s name, did he already know? No matter how much he knew, he at least knew about the Huo Family and the Wen Family—
Was it then that he chose her?
Thinking of her uncle, he truly wanted her happiness, right? Not for leveraging his power, right?
Her mother too truly wished for her happiness, right? Not using him, right?
It must not be the case!
Che Huan bit her lip hard, even she knew the reasons were far-fetched, heartbroken for her mother, yet not wanting to taint the relationship between her and him with any stain.
