Chapter 1386 - I Only Want You (2/2)

“No idea. They’ve never come to pick him up before. The nanny does all the work.”

Jing Chu nodded and told herself to stop overthinking, trying to convince herself that there wouldn’t be such a likely coincidence.

Due to the fact that it was a prestigious kindergarten, there were lots of rooms and ample space for the children to play in. Jing Chu would sit on the ground and follow the children everywhere they went. Su Nainai was only a year old and could not walk or talk yet. She could only make some simple sounds. She sat on the ground and had a whale of a time playing with toys.

“Sugarbean…” Jing Chu called.

Su Nainai looked at her before turning away again. When Jing Chu tried to hug her, she pushed Jing Chu away and declined her hug.

She was rather aloof as well. Hence, Jing Chu decided not to hug her and instead tried to get closer and build a rapport with her.

After all, she was just a toddler, and it was rather easy for Jing Chu to get closer to her.

Once they were familiar with each other, Jing Chu instructed Su Nainai to play on her own while she walked toward Pei Ling. He was cool yet cute at the same time.

“Hello, Pei Ling…”

He looked at her before struggling to get up with all his might. Holding his favorite toy in hand, he walked toward her slowly and called out in a puerile voice, “Mommy…”

Jing Chu was rather touched to hear his words. He’s still so young. How could his parents bear to leave him alone at the nursery? He must miss his mother dearly.

She tried to hug him and he allowed her to do so. He was extremely obedient.

Jing Chu’s heart melted. She picked Pei Ling up in her arms and asked, “Are you missing your mommy? She has gone to work? You must be obedient and stay here.”

Hanging his head low, he continued to fiddle with his toy car and murmured, “Mommy…”

Jing Chu caressed his head and placed him in front of Su Nainai.

Looking after two young toddlers was indeed an extremely tiring and tough job.

She had to take care of all their needs as soon as possible and feed them on time. Fortunately, Pei Ling was very obedient, unlike Su Nainai, who would constantly crawl around and drool continuously like a broken tap. She simply could not stay still. Jing Chu had no choice but to replace her bib every now and then.

Despite being worn out and exhausted, Jing Chu never failed to feel accomplished after a fulfilling day.

At past five o’clock in the afternoon every day, she would hand Pei Ling over to his nanny and proceed to take care of Su Nainai all the way until eight or nine in the evening. After feeding her and tucking her in bed, Jing Chu would be done for the day.

However, she could not help but be reminded of the heartless man who let her down two years ago whenever she looked at Pei Ling.

She had clearly forgotten about him. However, now that she was reminded of him all of a sudden, she was filled with misery.

It’s alright, it’s all in the past.

It’s all over now.

I’ve already ended things and sorted my feelings out two years ago. She felt much better after comforting herself.

——

“Madam, we’re back,” the nanny said while entering with Pei Ling in her arms.

Lying sluggishly on the couch, Tian Tian expressed assent and said, “Help him change into a fresh set of clothes. I’ll be taking him to see his grandmother later.”
