Xiao Bao sat up and shook his head. The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. He wailed sadly, "I miss Daddy. I miss Uncle Feng. I want to go back."
In a panic, Qiao Nian took a tissue from the side and carefully wiped Xiao Bao’s tears.
"But they don’t want me anymore. Sob..."
Seeing Xiao Bao like this, Qiao Nian’s heart ached.
Xiao Bao had grown up with Gu Yue and Eldest Senior Brother. He was too young to understand that people would be separated eventually. He had gone to an unfamiliar place alone. Even though she was his mommy, he had never interacted with her in the past.
Hence, when Xiao Bao woke up, he would miss the person closest to him.
Holding a tissue, Qiao Nian carefully wiped Xiao Bao’s tears and said gently, "Xiao Bao, it’s not what you think. It’s not that your Daddy and Uncle Feng don’t want you anymore. They like you very much and care about you especially. They’re sending you to Mommy now because it’s safer to be by my side."
Xiao Bao sniffled hard and said sadly, "But I’ll wait for Daddy and Uncle Feng at home obediently. I won’t let them worry about me. I’ll always be obedient."
"Xiao Bao, do you still remember Kan Shan?" Qiao Nian said gently. "Kan Shan is a traitor by your Daddy’s side. He’s working for someone else. Your Daddy and the others have to focus on dealing with the bad people now. If you stay with them, they’re worried that they won’t be able to protect you, so they want to send you over. When they catch all the bad people and send them to prison, our family will be reunited. You’ll always be with your Daddy and your Uncle Feng."
Qiao Nian wasn’t just comforting Xiao Bao, but also herself.
In the morning, she had wanted to ask Xiao Bao about Eldest Senior Brother’s current whereabouts, but now she realized something. If she went to look for Eldest Senior Brother now, those people would probably attack him.
All she could do now was pray that Eldest Senior Brother was safe and sound?
For the first time, Qiao Nian felt so incompetent.
Hearing Qiao Nian’s comforting words, Xiao Bao’s cries gradually softened. He obediently lay in Qiao Nian’s arms and looked up at her. He asked softly, "Mommy, do Daddy and Uncle Feng really like me?"
"Of course. They love Xiao Bao the most. That’s why they asked him to go to the safest place. They protected Xiao Bao like heroes."
Xiao Bao sniffled and nodded. "Then I’ll be happy."
Qiao Nian looked at Xiao Bao and asked softly, "Xiao Bao, are there any very powerful doctors around your Daddy and Uncle Feng?"
Uncle Zhang?
