Finally, Shen Ziche began to tell her fairy tales. He hadn't heard many fairy tales himself, finding them all on his phone. Ye Wan leaned against the sofa while he told her the stories until she fell asleep.
Shen Ziche finished telling the story of Snow White and looked at the sleeping girl. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up a blanket from the side, and covered her. He had originally intended to leave, but thinking of her condition, he felt uneasy and decided to sit on the sofa and watch over her.
When Ye Wan woke up, her neck felt sore. She almost fell off the sofa when she moved.
"Sister, you're awake."
Ye Wan heard the voice and looked at the young man sitting on the other end of the sofa. She asked, "How did I fall asleep? What time is it?"
"It's still early, it's a little past seven in the morning. Are you hungry? I'll make you breakfast," Shen Ziche said, standing up.
"Wait, I slept all night? You didn't leave yesterday?" Ye Wan asked, looking at him in surprise.
Shen Ziche's palms began to sweat nervously. He quickly explained, "Yesterday I saw you were in a bad mood, and you fell asleep. I was a bit worried about what would happen if you woke up, so I just sat here. I didn't do anything, just sat here!"
He was afraid she would be angry, afraid she would think he might steal something.
"Uh... I meant, why didn't you find a room to sleep in? There's food in the fridge, please go make breakfast." Ye Wan noticed his nervousness and let him make breakfast.
After Ye Wan finished washing up, Shen Ziche had already made breakfast. He had cooked noodles with an egg.
Ye Wan asked him to wash up and come to eat. Shen Ziche went to the public restroom. When he came out, Ye Wan was already sitting at the dining table waiting for him. Seeing him approach, she smiled and beckoned him to come and eat.
"I'm not very good at making other things," Shen Ziche explained. His family was poor, and although there was a lot of food in the fridge, he didn't know what to make.
"It's fine, this is great," Ye Wan said. She didn't have very high expectations for food, as she wasn't someone of high status.
After they finished breakfast, Shen Ziche washed the dishes and put them away. He then asked Ye Wan if she had anything else to do today.
"Aren't you going to get your household registration transferred? I'll call my brother and ask him how he's arranged it. You'll probably have to go back to our hometown with him," Ye Wan said, looking at him.
Shen Ziche nodded.
Ye Wan then called Lin Zehan. Lin Zehan said that he had arranged for an assistant to help Shen Ziche with this matter and that the assistant would come to pick him up shortly.
After the assistant arrived, Shen Ziche left with him to go back to his hometown to handle the household registration. His home was quite far from Jing City, and if all went smoothly, the round trip would take three days.
After Shen Ziche left, Ye Wan was alone in the apartment. She sat on the sofa and looked at her now empty fingers. Her heart suddenly ached and trembled.
...
After Jiang Jingxiu finished his work, he rushed to the hospital. As soon as he entered the room, he saw a little girl with her head drooping, sobbing and wiping away tears. He immediately felt heartache. He walked over, picked up Mian Mian, and sat her on his lap. He asked, "What's wrong? Who bullied you?"
"Wuwuwu, Daddy, I miss Mommy! Wuwuwu, I miss Mommy!" Mian Mian's chubby little hands continuously wiped away the tears streaming from her eyes.
Jiang Jingxiu frowned and said, "From now on, you'll live with Dad. Don't think about her anymore. She's not a responsible person!"
If she were truly a responsible mother, she should have told him about her pregnancy back then. The decision of whether to have a child should be made by two people.
