Chapter 45 Mom, why hasn't Dad come back
On the western outskirts of City S, in a dilapidated courtyard, a dozen children were chasing a ball, having fun.

Liang Nuannuan raised a warm smile on his lips.

She comes almost every Sunday.

"Mom." An eight-year-old boy tugged on Liang Nuannuan's clothes.

"Little Stone, what's wrong?" Liang Nuannuan looked at him.

"Do you still have the hand-painted painting you showed me last time?" Little Stone asked expectantly.

"What do you think?" Liang Nuannuan smiled.

Xiao Shitou widened his eyes excitedly, "Yes!"

"You guessed it right, let's go to the pavilion in front and Mom will read it to you."

"it is good."

The two sat in the pavilion.

Liang Nuannuan took out her own hand-painted drawing from her bag. There were three small animals on it, and there were a few words on each picture.

Liang Nuannuan spoke slowly, her voice was gentle and focused, and she quickly brought the little stone into the context of the story.

After the story was told, Little Stone still had more to say.

"My mother's story is really nice."

Liang Nuannuan smiled in relief.

"Mom..." Xiao Shitou reached out and grabbed Liang Nuannuan's hand, his expression suddenly became serious.

"what happened?"

"Mom, why hasn't Dad come back..." Xiaoshi asked cautiously.

Dad, Mom...

This pair of words pierced into Liang Nuannuan's heart like a sharp blade, and she forgot to respond to the pain.

"Mom..." Xiao Shitou called out nervously.

"No, it's okay, little stone, my father went to work far away, and my mother misses him very much." Liang Nuannuan came back to his senses and comforted him.

"Mom, have you separated from Dad?" Little Stone asked seriously.

Liang Nuannuan's cut wound was as if someone had sprinkled a handful of salt, and the pain was sharp.

"Mom, it's okay, there is no father, you still have me." Xiaoshi opened his thin arms and hugged Liang Nuannuan.

Liang Nuannuan hugged the small stone tightly, tears falling down uncontrollably.

Xiao Shitou was a child she and Luo Ziqing fostered together. At that time, Xiao Shitou was only two years old. She and Luo Ziqing would visit him whenever they had time, often take him out to play, and take care of him as best they could.

Luo Ziqing always said with a smile, "Nuan Nuan, after we get married, we can take Little Stone with us to raise."

At that time, Liang Nuannuan always pushed him away jokingly, "Who is going to marry you!"

"Who can you marry if you don't marry me?" Luo Ziqing insisted, chasing Liang Nuannuan in the yard
When Xiao Shitou was four years old, she got married, and the girl really wasn't Luo Ziqing...

Ever since she got married, she had never seen Luo Ziqing again. Liang Nuannuan thought that he might be extremely disappointed in herself, so she chose to leave the city.

"Mom, don't cry..." Xiao Shitou hugged Liang Nuannuan distressedly.

Liang Nuannuan cried for a long time before wiping away her tears, "Little Shitou, Dad, I still love you."

"It's enough for Xiao Shitou to have a mother." Xiao Shitou said firmly.

Liang Nuannuan hooked her lips helplessly, rubbed Xiaoshishi's soft black hair, and said nothing.

After taking care of Xiao Shitou for a nap, Liang Nuannuan left.

The suburban bus is the last one at [-]:[-] p.m. She wants to drive home. Sitting in the car, Liang Nuannuan turns on the radio.

Just happened to hear the familiar song Therose...

Liang Nuannuan's fingertips trembled slightly, and Luo Ziqing liked to listen to her song Therose the most.

The memory rushed over like a raging tide, and she was a drowning person standing in the sea, unable to breathe, but unable to struggle.

Tears flow wantonly.
