Chapter 301 Is She Qualified for That? (1/2)

The two women hold each other to cry. Xia Ning entered the room hurriedly and forgot to close the door. Zhang Hai gently closes the door. He turns around and sees a little girl walking to him. They look at each other. The little girl stops there as if time stood still.

Zhang Hai feels it a little funny. It is Zhenzhen.

How can this little kid find here by herself? Is she looking for Li Baoer?

“Zhen…”

“Shh!” Zhenzhen puts a finger on her lips and motions for Zhang Hai to keep silent.

Zhang Hai blinks his eyes and nods.

Li Baoer is heartbroken. Mrs. Yi is comforting her. Zhenzhen is really not supposed to show up here at the moment.

Zhang Hai points at a direction, telling Zhenzhen to talk with him in somewhere else.

Zhenzhen nods. They walk towards a small balcony not far away.

“Little girl, when did you come here?” The balcony faces outside and enjoys a open scenery. Their conversation here will not be heard by others.

Zhenzhen looks out of the balcony. She happens to see some little birds flying away. She asks meaningfully, “Brother Zhang Hai, do you think the birds have a home?”

“Yes.” Zhang Hai understands why Zhenzhen came up with this question. He feels his heart a little tightened, “Every bird has its home because they can build their own nests.”

“Build nests…” Zhenzhen thinks for a while and then she says, “So, I am also building my nest.”

Zhang Hai smiles, “You are too young. You don’t need to build your nest yourself. Adults will protect you.”

“Brother Zhang Hai, where are your parents?”

“They are not here. Why do you ask about that?”

Zhenzhen’s eyes gleam sadly, “Brother Zhang Hai, my mother and my father passed away. Uncle Dai is my present father. However, it seems that Sister Baoer doesn’t like me.”

Hearing this, Zhang Hai feels very sad for her. He strokes Zhenzhen’s head, “That is silly. You are so cute. How can Sister Baoer not like you?”

“Then, why Sister Baoer is crying in the room.”

Zhang Hai fails to respond at once. Instinctively, he doesn’t want to lie to the kid. However, if he tells the truth, he is afraid that Zhenzhen is still too young to understand.

The real reason for Baoer’s being sad is not about Zhenzhen, but about Colonel Dai.

Zhang Hai gives a sigh. He crouched down to Zhenzhen and says slowly, “Zhenzhen, I don’t know how to explain it to you. Even if I explain it, you may not understand. Because it is something between adults. However, I can guarantee one thing. Sister Baoer is sad, but it is not all because of you. Do you understand?”

Zhenzhen frowns. She thinks seriously for a while then nods with confusion, “I will try hard to understand.”

Zhang Hai smiles to stroke her head, “Can you tell me why you are here? Where is Colonel Dai?”

“Last night, dad and mom quarreled angrily. Then, dad went out, while mom cried in her room. After that, mom went out. I was worried about her. So, I followed her here.”

Zhang Hai nods. He suddenly remembers something and turns worried, “When did you come out last night?”

Zhenzhen blinks her eyes, “I don’t remember the time. It was dark. Mom walked in the street for a long time. I secretly followed her. I was afraid that she might find me. Then, mom walked to this hotel. She asked for the room and I came in too. I didn’t have money and I was too sleepy. So, I fell asleep on the sofa in the reception.”

Zhang Hai feels a little hurt for her. He holds Zhenzhen’s little hand, “You haven’t had any food. Right? Come with me. I will take you to eat something.”

“No. I don’t want to go.” Zhenzhen stands there, “Mom hasn’t had anything either. I am worried about her.”

Zhang Hai feels his heart softened. Zhenzhen addresses Li Baoer mom so naturally, which means she really regards Li Baoer to be her mother.

“Don’t worry about your mom. Sister Xia is there with her. She will be fine. Go with me to eat something. OK?”

Zhenzhen thinks for a while and strokes her belly. She really feels hungry so she nods, “OK. Let’s go to eat.”

Zhang Hai holds Zhenzhen’s hand. He takes out his phone and sends a message.

Inside the room.

Li Baoer hears Xia Ning’s words. She stops tearing. However, she still can’t figure it out at once.

“Zhongheng…doesn’t love that woman?”

“Surely not. Colonel Dai knew Zhenzhen’s mother before. He felt Zhenzhen pitiful. So, he took her with him. Baoer, don’t take it wrong.”

Li Baoer feels her brain in a mess. She frowns, feeling her head aching.

If Dai Zhongheng didn’t like that woman, why did he go to see her?

If he really didn’t like her, why did he hide it from her for such a long time?

If he really didn’t love her, why did he care about Zhenzhen so much?

Did Dai Zhongheng really… have no “relation” with that woman?

Xia Ning is aware of Li Baoer’s suspicion. She realizes that Li Baoer may not be able to get over the problem so soon.

No one can get over things like this very soon.
