I wanted to look for our child…
However, before she could finish speaking, s.h.i.+ Jinyan’s phone suddenly rang.
The ringtone was customized. It was the sound of an adorable voice unique to a child. “Daddy, pick up the call~ Daddy, pick up the call~”
Si Jingyu paused and s.h.i.+ Jinyan frowned.
Zhuang Nainai, who was listening next to them, suddenly thought of the child that she had met that day.
That child…
Zhuang Nainai bit her lips and looked down, as if she wasn’t looking at them.
When s.h.i.+ Jinyan heard this voice, he was slightly fl.u.s.tered. It seemed like he did not expect the sound to become like this. He placed the fish roe aside hurriedly and picked up his phone. He had intended to reject the call, but Si Jingyu said, “Answer it. It could be some urgent matter.”
Even though… this child was the barrier between them.
However, Si Jingyu could not ever bring herself to hate any child.
She had been thinking that if she treated every child well and her child was still alive, wouldn’t the child meet a good person that would take him or her in?
As she thought of this, her eyes turned red again. She looked down.
After hearing what Si Jingyu said, s.h.i.+ Jinyan paused before answering the call. Over the phone, Bai Yue’s voice could be heard. Her voice was slightly nasal. “Jinyan, where are you? Xin Xin is sick! What do I do? What do I do? Cries…”
Si Jingyu frowned and looked over at Si Jingyu. Then, he replied coldly, “What’s wrong?”
“Fever and vomiting. The child has already fainted. Jinyan, you need to rush over right now. Cries…”
s.h.i.+ Jinyan answered, “Call 120 and send him to the hospital. I’m rather busy right now…”
Before he could finish speaking, a child’s grunts could be heard over the phone, which sounded very miserable. A little boy’s whines could also be heard. “Dad, Dad come quickly. Save me…”
That voice seemed to possess some sort of magic that made s.h.i.+ Jinyan’s heart wrench.
Dazed, he looked at Si Jingyu.
Having heard the voice over the phone, Si Jingyu remained silent and just stared at s.h.i.+ Jinyan.
s.h.i.+ Jinyan pursed his lips tightly before saying, “I’ll go over now.”
After ending the call, he looked at Si Jingyu, wanting to say something. His lips moved but he couldn’t say anything.
He turned around and grabbed his coat before heading out. The moment he turned around, his sleeve knocked onto the box of fish roe, causing it to roll to the floor and under the bed.
Stopping in his tracks, s.h.i.+ Jinyan looked back at the scene, appearing rather gloomy. He pursed his lips and finally turned around and strode off.
Just when he opened the door, he heard Si Zhengting say, “Your wife has just escaped death and now you are ditching her. Why is that so? Where are you going?”
Si Zhengting looked very displeased as he clenched his fists tightly. There was an indignant glint in his dark eyes.
Upon hearing this, s.h.i.+ Jinyan paused and said moments later, “I…”
Before the other man could finish speaking, Si Zhengting had already flung his fist toward his cheek mercilessly!
s.h.i.+ Jinyan did not try to avoid him. However, just when Si Zhengting’s fist was about to land on his face, Si Jingyu’s loud yell could be heard from the ward. “Zhengting! Come in!”
Si Zhengting’s fist stopped a hair’s breadth away from s.h.i.+ Jinyan’s nose.
He narrowed his eyes. He still wanted to hit him, but Si Jingyu’s voice resounded in the air again. “Si Zhengting! Am I still your sister?!”
