After being missing for five years, President Fu's eyes welled up with tears when they met agai

A chubby little face appeared on the phone screen. "Daddy, today I..."

Fu Bao's words came to an abrupt halt after she saw Wen Qingruan's face in the video.

Mother?

How did Mom end up on Dad's phone?

What about Dad?

Are Dad and Mom together?

Thinking back to when Mom was with that uncle, Dad was so heartbroken.

He thought his father would hate his mother.

Fu Bao's little mind couldn't understand what the relationship between adults was.

Will he still be able to love his mother...?

Wen Qingruan never expected that the call would come from Fu Bao.

Before she saw Fu Bao again, she missed Fu Bao, but at least she could endure it.

But now, she has seen Fu Bao's little face, held Fu Bao's little hand, and heard Fu Bao's soft and cute little voice.

She thought about Fu Bao every moment, but she couldn't go to see Fu Bao.

Only she knows how difficult it was.

At that moment, looking at Fu Bao in the video, tears instantly blurred her vision.

The mother and son stared at each other on their phone screens, neither daring to speak first.

The ward was quiet for a moment, then Fu Yanci broke the silence.

"cell phone."

Wen Qingruan finally came to her senses. She quickly wiped away her tears and handed the phone to Fu Yanci.

Fu Bao didn't speak again until she saw her father.

"dad……"

Unlike her earlier excitement, Fu Bao's voice this time carried a hint of grievance and timidity.

Fu Yanci understands her son best and is aware of his little thoughts.

Actually, Fu Bao really wanted to see Wen Qingruan, but... he didn't know if Wen Qingruan liked him, so he didn't dare to be too close to her.

"Yes, Dad's here. What did you want to say to him?"

Children's attention is easily diverted.

Fu Bao turned her phone camera upside down to the building blocks in front of her. "Dad, look! I finished building this Harry Potter castle today! I did it all by myself, without asking anyone for help. Aren't I amazing!"

"Wow, our Fu Bao is really amazing."

Dad was thinking that this Lego set was so difficult that Fu Bao might not be able to put it together by himself.

It seems Dad can finally buy you the Millennium Falcon you've always wanted.

Fu Yanci's words immediately lifted Fu Bao's spirits.

"Really? Daddy, you'll really buy it for me? Yay! That's great! Daddy, I love you!"

The father and son chatted on the phone, each taking turns speaking, in a harmonious atmosphere.

Wen Qingruan stood to the side, listening to Fu Bao whining to her father and Fu Yanci teasing Fu Bao.

She couldn't quite describe how she felt.

She just remembered that in the days when Fu Bao was just born, Fu Yanci would always finish work early and rush home to play with Fu Bao, who couldn't speak yet.

The family of three would camp in the villa's yard.

Fu Bao hadn't learned to crawl yet, but Fu Yanci had already set up a climbing frame in the yard. He even made a sturdy swing by hand, and Wen Qingruan often sat on the swing, watching the father and son play.

That period fulfilled all of Wen Qingruan's lifelong fantasies about "home".

In the dead of night, when she thinks back to those days, she often wonders if she could have had a fulfilling life if those things hadn't happened.

But in this world, there are no "what ifs"...

Although Fu Bao didn't mention his mother on his own initiative, he kept looking around in the video, and even when chatting with his father, he was absent-minded.

Fu Yanci knew that Fu Bao actually wanted to spend time with Wen Qingruan.

He glanced at Wen Qingruan, thought for a moment, and said.

"Dad isn't feeling well today and is in the hospital. Do you want to come over?"

He couldn't bear to see Fu Bao so sad and disappointed, so he wanted to bring Fu Bao over.

Since Fu Bao wants to see her, let's give them some time to get to know each other.

When Fu Bao heard that his father was sick, he was so nervous that he could barely speak.

"Dad, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Dad's fine, he just has a fever."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then she whispered, "Is...she taking care of you?"

He didn't know what had happened between his parents.

But if Mom is taking care of Dad when he's sick, does that mean Mom is actually very good to Dad, and therefore... does he no longer need to keep his distance from Mom...?

Fu Yanci glanced at Wen Qingruan, who was standing by the window with her back to him, and nodded.

"Um."

Fu Bao's face immediately lit up with a smile. "Then I'll go over now."

Fu Yanci: "Okay, be careful on the road."

After hanging up the phone, Fu Yanci looked towards the balcony.

"Fu Bao is coming over later. He probably won't want to go back tonight, so I'll have to trouble you to take care of him."

Wen Qingruan had just overheard what Fu Bao said on the phone.

Of course, she was willing to take care of Fu Bao and fulfill her responsibilities as a mother.

But soon, she thought of something and cautiously looked at Fu Yanci.

"Can I?"

She looked at Fu Yanci.

She thought Fu Yanci would tell her to keep her distance from Fu Bao, and that Fu Yanci would not even let her see Fu Bao again.

After all, he did say that.

Fu Yanci did not answer Wen Qingruan immediately.

He just looked at her, trying to read something from her face.

Wen Qingruan refused to tell him the truth.

What about Fu Bao?

Does she not want her child either?

After a long silence, Fu Yanci finally spoke again.

"You are his mother by blood."

One sentence finally eased Wen Qingruan's tense heart.

She knew that Fu Yanci was willing to let her take care of Fu Bao.

Before she could even speak, the smile on her face froze at Fu Yanci's next words.

"I will tell Fu Bao that you are the caregiver who takes care of me."

Wen Qingruan's heart was like a clock, stopping at this moment.

After a long while, she nodded gently.

"good……"

fair enough.

Since she is destined not to have a mother-child bond with Fu Bao, being a "caregiver" is the best option.

Fu Yanci... thought it through very thoroughly.

Knowing that Fu Bao would be arriving soon, Wen Qingruan couldn't help but feel nervous.

She wondered what she should say to Fu Bao later.

Fu Bao seems to really enjoy building Lego, so Wen Qingruan immediately took out her phone and ordered a set of Lego suitable for Fu Bao's age from a food delivery app.

She scrolled through her phone screen, looking at the takeout order list, wondering what Fu Bao, at her age, would like.

Although Luo Luo is only six or seven months younger than Fu Bao, due to health reasons, Luo Luo spends most of her time in the hospital, has few hobbies, and has no opportunity to play.

Therefore, Wen Qingruan didn't really understand what boys in this age group liked.

She thought about it and decided to ask Gu Ying, and also ask Gu Ying to take care of Luo Luo tonight.

Fu Yanci saw Wen Qingruan constantly typing on her phone, looking serious, sometimes frowning, sometimes with a bitter expression, as if she was in a difficult situation.

He was eager to know who was the person on the other end of the phone who elicited such a range of emotions from her.

He asked directly, "Who are you messaging?"

Wen Qingruan was asking Gu Ying to take care of Luo Luo tonight when she heard Fu Yanci ask her a question. Feeling guilty, she hid her phone behind her back.

"No, nobody."

Fu Yanci squinted at Wen Qingruan, his hawk-like eyes seeming to see right through her.

He knew Wen Qingruan too well and saw through her panic at a glance.

Wen Qingruan felt uneasy under Fu Yanci's gaze.

"It's really nothing, I was just chatting with a friend."

Feeling guilty, she tried to turn off her phone, but in her panic, she accidentally opened the voice message Gu Ying had just sent.
