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

"Cough cough cough..."

Wen Qingruan was so choked by Fu Bao's question that she kept coughing.

Fu Yanci remained calm.

"Why does Fu Bao ask that?"

Fu Bao, "I saw everything! Daddy, you want to kiss me? Daddy, you're so embarrassing!"

Fu Yanci showed no embarrassment whatsoever. He turned to serve the food, saying, "Then don't kiss me anymore!"

"No!"

Fu Bao immediately protested.

"I want a kiss!"

Fu Yanci, "Didn't you say it was embarrassing?"

Fu Bao, "I'm still a baby!"

Fu Yanci: "So it's still a baby!"

Then he wouldn't be a little man anymore?

"Well, it looks like we can't take Fu Bao to Africa to see the Great Migration this year, because he'll be scared. Only little men can watch it."

Fu Bao completely forgot the question he had asked at the beginning. His attention was completely diverted by his father, and he only wanted to argue with his father about whether he was a little man.

Wen Qingruan watched the father and son bickering from the side and began to feel sorry for Fu Bao.

Fu Yanci, that old fox, is no match for her little Fu Bao.

With just a few words, Fu Yanci completely fooled them.

Fu Bao was easily confused by her father's few words and obediently went to wash her hands and eat.

At the dinner table, Fu Bao's smile never faded.

He carefully arranged the bowls his father had bought for him, then sat obediently, waiting for his parents to sit down together.

He can finally eat with his parents, that's great.

Fu Bao's little legs were kicking under the chair, and anyone could tell how happy the child was.

He picked up his chopsticks, about to take a bite of food, when he suddenly looked at Wen Qingruan.

Aren't you going to eat?

Before Wen Qingruan could speak, the little guy jumped off the chair and came to her side.

Let's eat together.

He took Wen Qingruan's hand and led her to the dining table, patting her little hand on the chair.

"You sit here."

He then toddled over with his short legs, pulled his father to sit down on the other side of the table, and said, "This is Daddy's seat."

After finishing his chores, Fu Bao climbed onto his high chair, looked at his father on his left, then at his mother on his right, and grinned from ear to ear.

Wen Qingruan had no idea that Fu Bao was so happy because he had long recognized her as his mother, because this was the first meal the three of them had eaten together, and because it was a scene he had dreamed of countless times that had finally come true today.

She didn't know any of this...

She only thought that Fu Bao liked her cooking and simply had a good impression of her.

She never imagined that Fu Bao knew she was her mother the first time they met.

Later, when she learned all this, she realized how much harm she had caused Fu Bao.

But by then, her apology and remorse were meaningless...

She saw the bowl in front of her, with the familiar pony logo, exactly the same as the three bowls that had been broken in her shop.

She remembered Fu Yanci saying that this bowl was bought by Fu Bao for his parents to use together.

Why are you appearing in front of her now?

Does Fu Bao already know that she is his mother...?

No, the Fu family would never tell Fu Bao this secret.

Besides, Fu Bao is still so young. If she knew that her mother was her mother, she wouldn't be so calm. She might even hate her!

After all, she abandoned Fu Bao when he was so young.

Wen Qingruan thought that this was probably because Qin Wen had come earlier, and this bowl was probably prepared for Qin Wen as well.

After all, Qin Wen is Fu Yanci's fiancée and will be Fu Bao's mother in the future.

"Auntie, this sweet and sour pork ribs is the best I've ever had!"

Fu Bao's little mouth was stuffed full, and there was soup at the corner of her mouth.

Wen Qingruan took a wet wipe and gently wiped the corners of his mouth clean.

"Eat slowly, you little kitten."

Fu Bao lowered her head shyly, her eyes curving into crescents; she looked incredibly cute.

Wen Qingruan looked at Fu Bao, her heart melting with love for the child.

Unbeknownst to her, while her eyes were fixed on Fu Bao, another person at the table was also watching her intently.

As he looked at it, Fu Yanci's eyes began to burn.

This ordinary dinner was something the family of three had waited five years for...

The three people at the table each had their own thoughts, but one thing was undeniable: they all cherished this moment of reunion and sweetness, and prayed that this moment could last a little longer, and a little longer still...

But all good things must come to an end.

A short ringing bell broke the harmony at the dining table.

Wen Qingruan took out her phone and looked at the caller ID, as if she had just woken up from a beautiful dream.

The cell phone in my hand has become a time bomb.

Pressing the answer button meant the end of her beautiful dream, and she was about to leave.

Even the most beautiful dreams must eventually end, no matter how unwilling you are...

The once relaxed and cheerful restaurant suddenly fell silent because of this ringing phone, leaving only the sound of the phone ringing, like the midnight bell reminding Cinderella that everything was coming to an end.

Even Fu Bao sensed something was wrong and was no longer as lively as before.

Wen Qingruan pressed the answer button.

"Ruan Ruan, it's getting late. Do you need me to pick you up?"

The restaurant was so quiet that Fu Yanci could hear the man's voice clearly through the receiver.

The hand gripping the wine glass tightened even more.

He found it ridiculous.

His wife was having dinner with him and their child, while another man called to check up on him.

He was about to explode when he saw Fu Bao tilting her head and looking at Wen Qingruan, and he felt a sharp pain in his heart.

The things that happen between adults must not be known to Fu Bao, and even more so, Fu Bao must not know that Wen Qingruan has another child who is waiting for her to return.

He got up and picked up Fu Bao.

"Little kitten, are you full? Daddy will take you to get a bath."

Fu Bao glanced at her mother, wanting to say something, but realizing that her father didn't seem to want her to stay there, and that her mother had other things to take care of, Fu Bao obediently nodded, even though she was very reluctant to leave her mother.

"I'm stuffed."

Fu Yanci gently poked his round little belly.

"Your tummy is full, come on, Daddy will wash your face."

He carried Fu Bao out of the restaurant.

Wen Qingruan was grateful for Fu Yanci's thoughtfulness and took Fu Bao away.

On the phone, Chu Yun Shen continued.

"Lolo is tired from playing and wants to sleep, but she insists on waiting for you to come back before she will go to sleep."

Where are you now? Lolo and I will come pick you up.

Wen Qingruan looked at the three bowls in front of her and said, "No need, I'm going back now. You've really worked hard tonight. I'll take a taxi home now."

As she said this, Fu Yanci was carrying Fu Bao and walking out of the restaurant.

Although Wen Qingruan's voice was very soft, he still heard it.

Fu Bao must have heard it too.

Because the two little arms wrapped around his neck tightened, and her chubby little face buried itself in the crook of his neck.

Fu Yanci's eyes darkened slightly, and he quickened his pace as he left the restaurant.
