Chapter 134 - Bai Wu’s Realization (2/2)
Bai Wu said as he pointed to the only bed in the house. In the meantime, he was also spreading out on the floor the blanket that had just been sent over.
“And you’ll sleep on the floor?” Xu Lan had a look of displeasure as he asked the question with an astonished tone. The ground was damp and cold, yet surprisingly, Bai Wu wanted to sleep there.
“Mm. Well actually, I wanted to cram in with the others, but I’m worried about Papa.” Bai Wu had spread out the blanket and was sitting on it. He gave Xu Lan a happy smile.
He was truly delighted when Xu Lan was able to find him, though he exercised restraint on his emotions.
“Are you crazy or something? It’s so damp down there! Get up now! The bed is big and…” Xu Lan shouted furiously, but midway through his sentence he paused and lowered his voice.
“Get up. It’s too wet on the ground. It’ll be like old times, wouldn’t it? That way…”
“Papa,” Bai Wu then responded, “Papa, I realize it now. I needed some time.”
“Realize what?” Xu Lan felt his heart skip a beat and he unconsciously posed a question.
“I shouldn’t be saying all that nonsense. I won’t say it again. I’ll be Papa’s son forever. When I fell in here, I finally realized it. I don’t want love. I want Papa. I only want Papa…”
Bai Wu began to sob and cry. His hands had pummelled the ground, but he did not dare to move them again. When he came in and hugged Xu Lan with unreserved emotions a while ago, Xu Lan seemed rather unhappy.
For Xu Lan, Bai Wu’s words felt like a pinch to the heart. Those sobs made him feel even more heartbroken.
“Papa, I will listen to you. It’s okay if Papa goes back to where Papa was originally from. I will…I will always think of Papa. If it’s possible, I will come back to visit…” Bai Wu said softly.
Those words, however, were lies. Bai Wu only had one desire: to make sure that Xu Lan was bound beside him.
