1445 Grief
Seeing Xiao Bao constantly take out little red flowers from his school bag, even someone as determined as Jun Shiling could not withstand such a scene.
He turned his head and sighed deeply. “Daddy promises you that when you grow up, Mommy will definitely come back, okay?”
“Really?” Xiao Bao widened his eyes and looked at Jun Shiling blankly.
“Mm.” Jun Shiling nodded. “Daddy promises you.”
Only then did Xiao Bao put the things back into his school bag bit by bit. “Daddy, let’s go to sleep?”
“Okay.”
Jun Shiling picked Xiao Bao up. “Have you been obedient in school recently?”
“There are so many little red flowers. Of course I’m good.” Xiao Bao hugged Jun Shiling’s neck. “Daddy, can you sleep with me today?”
Jun Shiling nodded. “Sure.”
Xiao Bao’s eyes curved up slightly. After Jun Shiling washed up with Xiao Bao, he told him a story for a while. Xiao Bao was still awake.
Looking at Jun Shiling’s cold side profile, Xiao Bao wanted to push his luck. He looked at the Ultraman toy not far away. “Daddy, can you let Ultraman sleep beside me tonight? I’m afraid of little monsters.”
Jun Shiling, who had never allowed Xiao Bao to bring toys to bed, agreed to Xiao Bao’s request for the first time today. He even got out of bed and brought Xiao Bao’s toys over himself.
“Daddy.” Xiao Bao looked at Jun Shiling.
“Mm.” Looking at Xiao Bao’s innocent and pure appearance, Jun Shiling’s heart ached. He felt that he had let Xiao Bao down.
Xiao Bao had lost his mother since he was born and had lived alone for so long. It was not easy for him to have Xia Wanyuan’s company, and now, he was forced to accept her departure.
If he could not take it, how could a four or five-year-old child like Xiao Bao take it?
“Daddy, why are you so good to me today?” Seeing that Jun Shiling had really begun to play with his Ultraman doll, Xiao Bao asked curiously, “You never let me play with toys at night in the past.”
“Mm,” Jun Shiling replied softly.
“Daddy?” Xiao Bao looked up at Jun Shiling in confusion, only to see that Jun Shiling’s eyes were red and clearly bloodshot. Xiao Bao blinked. “Daddy, why are your eyes red?”
“I’m sleepy.” Jun Shiling forced a smile at Xiao Bao.
Xiao Bao lowered his head, sadness flashing across his eyes.
Daddy lied to me. Daddy isn’t sleepy. He clearly misses Mommy.
Looking at Xiao Bao’s disappointed expression with his head lowered, Jun Shiling could not bear it. He reached out and stroked Xiao Bao’s hair. “Good boy, can you sleep?”
Xiao Bao looked up and smiled at Jun Shiling. Unfortunately, his eyes were red. Even if he smiled, one could see the sadness in his eyes. “Daddy, I love you.”
The corners of Jun Shiling’s lips curled up slightly as he reached out to hug Xiao Bao. “Good boy, Daddy loves you very much too.”
The next morning, Jun Shiling sent Xiao Bao to kindergarten and went straight to the company.
Seeing Jun Shiling return, the employees were very happy. After all, during this period of time, Jun Shiling had disappeared and there were rumors everywhere that the Jun Corporation was about to go bankrupt. Now that Jun Shiling was back, the rumors would definitely be broken.
Watching Jun Shiling leave coldly, everyone felt that something was wrong.
“Don’t you think there’s something wrong with CEO Jun?” The receptionist looked at Jun Shiling thoughtfully. “Why is it so cold?”
“I think so too… To put it bluntly, CEO Jun is a little similar to two years ago. He seems to be even colder than two years ago. Did he quarrel with Madam??”
“Speaking of Xia Wanyuan, she hasn’t appeared in a long time. I heard that the name list for the Oscar Ceremony has been released. ‘Under the Sky’ has been nominated. The other main leads have already gone to America, but I haven’t seen Xia Wanyuan.”
At this moment, on the Internet, the netizens were also looking for Xia Wanyuan.
Her social platform had not been updated for a long time, and she was not among the people who went to the Oscar ceremony. The fans were very worried about Xia Wanyuan’s situation.
Now that Jun Shiling was back, Xia Wanyuan still did not appear. All sorts of disputes arose.
Under the guidance of the fake reviewers, a strange saying began to become popular online.
Some marketing accounts connected that flight to the subsequent virus outbreak.
“Do you know why Xia Wanyuan went missing? Because Xia Wanyuan was arrested. Do you remember Wei Zimu, who was very close to Xia Wanyuan back then? This is an explosive news on the dark web. This Wei Zimu is the internationally famous K, who lives at the top of the world’s arrest list. Now that I think about it, everything can be connected.
Xia Wanyuan and Wei Zimu conspired to transmit the virus to us. Now that the matter has been exposed, even someone as powerful as Jun Shiling can’t save his wife from prison.”
[ Can the marketing account’s words be more reasonable?? With so many things Xia Wanyuan has done in the past, every one of them is for China. Do you think she caused the entire incident? How is that possible? ]
[ I actually quite believe it. The stranger the thing, the more likely it is to be true. However, Xia Wanyuan is too heartless… She even used her child. ]
[ It’s too disgusting. How can Xia Wanyuan be such a person?? The marketing account doesn’t even care about its face for popularity. I won’t believe this even if you beat me to death. ]
The Internet was in chaos, but there was still no news from Xia Wanyuan.
At this moment, the Oscar Ceremony overseas began.
