Chapter 288: Tang Zhimo’s Plan
Tang Zhimo promised to provide the best quality of life for his younger sibling.
A shocking expression washed over Tang Boqian’s face as he was completely stunned by the little boy’s comment. He knew from the beginning that the sensible little boy was different from peers his age.
However, he never thought the little boy was so mature that he even thought out his life plan so far ahead into the future.
Perhaps even Chu Wuyou had not considered this before.
Tang Boqian knew how much Tang Zhimo loved his mother. He also knew that although the little boy pretended to be unperturbed, he secretly hoped that his mother would accompany him more often.
“Don’t worry, you and your younger sister will not be separated from your Mommy.” Tang Boqian did not wish to drag on this topic of conversation. This little boy in front of him could pretend to be tough but he was only still a little child at the end of the day.
He could not allow this child to a.s.sume more responsibilities than he should have.
Tang Boqian realized he should not have told the boy what happened earlier in the first place.
“Uncle Tang, do you mean that Ye Lanchen will accept Younger Sister and I?” Tang Zhimo detected the strange expression that took over the man’s face. However, he was too eager for an answer to his doubt that he subconsciously ignored other things.
In actuality, he was not too bothered by this but his younger sister thought otherwise. He felt sorry that the girl cried for Mommy every day.
Of course, the little boy himself also wanted Mommy to spend more time with them.
His younger sister had been pestering him incessantly lately. In fact, he had already designed a perfect plan for testing Ye Lanchen. However, he could not seem to find an appropriate opportunity to carry out the plan.
Tang Boqian tensed up at the boy’s question. It suddenly occurred to him that the boy was actually yearning to be accepted by Ye Lanchen.
“That’s right.” He sighed quietly before nodding gradually.
He was fully aware that Ye Lanchen was the only other person in this world, apart from Chu Wuyou, that could accept and love these two children wholeheartedly without any condition.
Tang Boqian could also accept these children, mainly out of affection for their mother. However, it was a different story for Ye Lanchen because…
The man forced himself to stop thinking further because a piercing pain had already stabbed through his heart.
“Is it because he’ll love us since he loves Mommy?” Tang Zhimo tilted his head to regard the other man. His bright eyes revealed an expectation mixed with a hint of concern.
“It’s because you and your younger sister are both sensible and adorable. That’s why people find you two really likable.” Tang Boqian could not bring himself to speak against his conscience under the little boy’s sincere gaze.
This was because he knew that even if Ye Lanchen did not love Chu Wuyou, he would unquestionably want to take in the two children.
An innocent and naïve smile spread across Tang Zhimo’s face, evidently pleased by the man’s reply.
Tang Boqian felt an unmistakable disappointment filtering through his body upon witnessing the grin on the little boy’s face. He had been protecting them secretly all these years but not only had the woman married Ye Lanchen, even the little one was beginning to take a liking toward the other man.
He could not fathom the reason.
This stirred up a surge of emotions in him. He could not help but feel that he was always a step behind. He wondered if the things that he was planning to do next would still be worthwhile.
On the other hand, Tang Zhimo was determined to carry out his plan. He had to “meet” Ye Lanchen personally soon.
He needed to take on the responsibility to test the man for his younger sister!!!
