novelWhere's Daddy
| ← Ch.560 | Ch.562 → |
At two in the morning, Xian Guiying woke up from her sleep because she felt Qin Wenqian wake up.
Qin Wenqian had to go to the toilet and since she was used to sleeping with Xian Guiying, her thoughts were not as smart as when she woke up. She didn't realize that her father wasn't sleeping by her side but complained something about going to the toilet while rubbing her eyes.
Xian Guiying quickly led her daughter to the bathroom. After Qin Wenqian went to the toilet, she carried her back to the bed. As soon as her head touched the pillow, she fell asleep again. Apparently, she was too tired to play around during the day.
At this time, Xian Guiying was no longer sleepy. She looked at the time, limped to the curtain, and pushed it aside to peek outside.
Qin Gengxin still hadn't come back.
It was two in the morning.
She looked at the empty space across the yard where his car always parked. Xian Guiying slowly released the curtains and was about to go back to bed when Qin Wenqian, who had just fallen asleep, appeared to wake up suddenly. She opened her eyes and sat down on the bed, asking, "Where's daddy"
Qin Wenqian's question gave Xian Guiying a strange feeling. When Qin Wenqian's eyes turned red, Xian Guiying hurriedly picked up the phone and dialed Qin Gengxin's number.
However, no one answered the phone for a long time.
"Where did daddy go?" Qin Wenqian stared at Xian Guiying anxiously with her innocent eyes wide open. She stood on the bed and asked with tears in her eyes, "Mommy, where's daddy?"
Qin Wenqian continued to ask with red eyes, looking at her mother like a child who had mercilessly abandoned. The fear in her eyes was so obvious.
Xian Guiying knew that Qin Wenqian was afraid that her father would disappear again, so she hung up the phone. She sat on the bed and hugged her daughter tightly, trying to comfort her."Qianqian is a good girl, right? Daddy went to the toilet. Can you stay asleep?"
Qin Wenqian looked doubtfully at the open bathroom door. There were no lights in the bathroom. As if she knew her mother was lying to her, she frowned and muttered in a small, upset voice, "Daddy didn't go to the bathroom..."
"Daddy doesn't want to wake you up, so he went to the toilet downstairs. He'll be right back, so you have to sleep obediently. Daddy will get angry when he sees you crying in the middle of the night." Xian Guiying patted her daughter's shoulder lightly, hugged her, and laid her on the bed."Come, continue to sleep."
Qin Wenqian raised her small chubby hand to wipe away the tears. All this time, she frowned and kept looking at Xian Guiying. She wanted to cry, but she didn't dare cry anymore.
"Sleep, hmm?" Xian Guiying smiled as she covered Qin Wenqian's body with a blanket."Listen to mommy."
"I want daddy..." Qin Wenqian looked at her carefully, as if she was afraid to upset her mother. She said it in a soft voice, with a little cry in her voice.
Xian Guiying pursed her lips and clenched the edge of the blanket with her hand, looking down at her daughter quietly.
"Mommy, I want daddy... I want my daddy..." Qin Wenqian kept repeating the sentences with her red eyes and in a small voice. The more she said, the more tears flowed in her eyes."Daddy doesn't like Qianqian?"
"No, daddy likes Qianqian very much. Qianqian must be obedient and listen to mommy's words. Go to sleep, daddy will be back soon." Xian Guiying gently caressed her daughter's head."Don't cry, hmm?"
Qin Wenqian sobbed again. She looked at Xian Guiying with innocent eyes filled with tears. As her eyes opened, the tears that had accumulated in her eyes flowed into her pillow. She looked pitiful and wronged.
Xian Guiying's heart ached as she kissed her little face."Crying is not good for a baby. Did you forget what mommy told you? Crying can't solve anything. Why don't you just sleep and maybe once you open your eyes tomorrow morning, you'll see daddy?"
Xian Guiying deliberately smiled so that her daughter would be able to sleep without worry.
Qin Wenqian sniffed. Since she was still a child, although she could understand the words of an adult, she did not have any objections.
She looked at her mother's smiling face with wide eyes. Suddenly she rolled over and hugged the pillow next to her. She buried her face in the pillow and refused to look at her again.
The little girl was angry ...
Even the little Qin Wenqian knew Xian Guiying had lied to her.
Even she knew that it was impossible for her father to stay by her side forever. Even she knew that her father was gone and may never return.
'Xian Guiying, it took you eleven years to understand this. Qianqian understood it in an instant. '
'How many failures do you have to survive? How much suffering do you have to face for you to give up?'
Xian Guiying took the pillow in Qin Wenqian's arm and saw that the little girl was crying sadly. Qin Wenqian has been sick since she was young, so no matter how much she cried, it was useless; therefore, she learned to obey from the beginning.
But now, her small body curled into a ball, and she cried incessantly as she pressed her head to the edge of the blanket.
As Xian Guiying patted her daughter's back, her mind flashed with the sight of Qin Gengxin driving out of the front yard.
Since Qin Wenqian was in her mother's arms, she continued crying again. In the end, she cried out loud, her little hand grabbing Xian Guiying's pajamas while sobbing, "Mommy... Why daddy... Is... Doesn't... Like..... Everyone else.... Daddy..."
"Why can't... Qianqian.... Have a.... Daddy... Like.... Anyone else."
Qin Wenqian sobbed as she raised her other hand to rub her nose. Xian Guiying lowered her head and hurriedly used a handkerchief to wipe the mucus on the back of Qin Wenqian's hand. Her heart ached to see her daughter like this.
Xian Guiying slowly coaxed her, "Qianqian, be good. Isn't it good to only be with mommy? Wherever you want to go, mommy will bring you to play. Mommy will buy whatever you want. Mommy will send you to kindergarten soon, and then there will be a lot of kids to play with you. When that happens, you won't feel lonely anymore."
"But... But... Qianqian wants daddy..." Qin Wenqian cried again. She pressed her face to Xian Guiying's chest, crying until she ran out of breath."Daddy..."
After about twenty minutes, Qin Wenqian finally fell asleep. With tears all over her face, she pouted and fell asleep again, but this time, her sleep was obviously not as peaceful as it had been before. She wriggled her body from time to time and even choked up a little in her sleep.
Xian Guiying wiped the tears from her daughter's face and laid her on the bed gently. Afterward, she used a towel to wipe her face and hands. After covering her with a blanket, she heard the sound of cars coming from outside.
She got up and limped over to the window. Opening the curtain, she looked out, only to see an unfamiliar car driving away on the road in front of the yard.
Normally, there were very few cars entering or leaving the villa at this late hour. Xian Guiying thought that Qin Gengxin had returned, but as she saw that car leaving, she gently put down the curtain and turned her head to look at Qin Wenqian, who was once again sleeping on the bed.
