Chapter 456 The Childe in the Tang Family Lives Off A Girl 23
Sweet Orange looks up and down again, and when she finally finds that she is the only one at home, she cries.
“Mom… Oops… Dad oops… Grandpa and Grandma… Sister oops…” Sweet Orange is crying while walking to the sitting room. It has already been dark outside. She climbs onto the sofa, crying out of breath, but no one responds. No one.
When she is sick of crying, Sweet Orange thinks of something. She sniffs hard and picks up the phone. She remembers the phone number of everyone in the family. She calls them one by one, but no one answers the phone. The tears that just stopped are dropping again.
“Mommy, I’m scared. Where have you gone?”
At this time, the phone rings suddenly. Sweet Orange is startled and picks up the phone, sobbing.
“Hello… Do you know where my mother has gone?” She cries and shouts before the person at the other end says, “They are all gone, only Sweet Orange is left alone.”
“Hello? Hello? Sweet Orange?”
“Brother?” Sweet Orange shouts excitedly. It is Gungun’s voice. She cries louder, “Brother, brother! Where have you gone?”
Gungun is also very excited over there, “Sweet Orange, are you going back? We found that you were not at home and all came out to look for you.”
“I’m back.” Sweet Orange cries and shouts, “Brother, I’m afraid.”
“We are all looking for you far away!” Gungun says over there. Sweet Orange didn’t hear her brother giggling just now because she was scared. She cries and says, “Then… Then you come back earlier.”
Gungun embarrassingly says, “We are too far away from home and it will take a while to go back. If you are afraid, go to bed. And when you fall asleep, you will not be afraid.”
Sweet Orange cries, “I’m scared. Brother, I’m scared!”
The phone hangs up.
In the garage, Bai Susu yells, “Why did you hang up? Sweet Orange is still crying.”
“I’m going out!” Tang Yao is distressed to death, “Sweet Orange is so young that she must be scared.”
Tang Duo stops him, “Dad, if you go out now. Aren’t we acting in vain?”
Tang Duo thought that this would not work on the way back to follow Sweet Orange. It was too lucky for the child to run away from home, so she must try a second and third time in this way. So they must find a way to let the kid Sweet Orange realize that running away from home will be terrible…
So she called her family and told everyone to hide. When Sweet Orange came back, she would find that there was no one at home.
“Then when will we go out?” An’an asks, “I’m hungry.”
Gungun looks at his watch and says, “Or I will take An’an out to eat. By the way, bring some food back to you.”
“Go, go!” Tang Duo says, “When you come back, we should almost go out.”
Sweet Orange cries and climbs into the bed, muttering in her mouth, “Brother said that I wouldn’t be afraid after falling asleep. I want to get to sleep soon…”
Then she cries and falls asleep.
Lang Ruoxian is sent to check the situation and finds that Sweet Orange is asleep, and then everyone returns to the sitting room.
“Just let her sleep?” Tang Yao begins to feel distressed again, “Don’t even wake her up to have dinner?”
Bai Susu cuts the fruit and comes out to serve, “Let her sleep. She has run for all the afternoon, and cried for a long time. She must be very tired.”
“It won’t matter if she doesn’t eat a meal, Dad.” Tang Duo feels exhausted, “I will sleep with her at night. If she wakes up in the middle of the night, I will get her food.”
Lang Ruoxian rubs her shoulders and says, “You rest. I will accompany her.”
“You have to work tomorrow!” Tang Duo leans into his arms and yawns, “No wonder Sweet Orange is tired. I have been tired all the afternoon.”
Gungun and Wuyou come back with An’an and take-away food. Everyone casually eats a bit and goes back to their rooms to rest. An’an stops Tang Duo at the door of the room and looks at her, wishing to speak but stop on a second thought.
“What’s wrong?” Tang Duo squats down.
“Mom, if I persuaded Sweet Orange well, would she not run away from home?”
Tang Duo smiles and says, “What does this have to do with you? It’s Sweet Orange’s own problem.”
“I won’t say that she’s a fool anymore in the future.” An’an cries when he finishes speaking.
Tang Duo is taken aback for An’an rarely cries after the age of three. The children who went to kindergarten, including Sweet Orange, cried hard while he read the pictorial calmly aside.
“Don’t cry. Don’t cry!” Tang Duo hugs him in her arms, “I know that you actually loves Sweet Orange very much, right? Just everyone expresses their feelings differently. An’an is An’an. You don’t need to learn what others do.”
An’an rarely hugs Tang Duo like a kid before going back to sleep.
Tang Duo returns to the room to take a shower and finds that Lang Ruoxian has held Sweet Orange over.
“Not awake?”
“No.” Lang Ruoxian dims the light, “But she may have had a nightmare, and she just cried.”
Tang Duo looks at her sleeping daughter, “She was scared! I’m afraid that she will be scared for a long time.”
In fact, when she thought about this method she did think what if Sweet Orange was really frightened, but then she thought if she wasn’t made aware of the terrible consequences of running away from home, it would be more troublesome in the future.
“Tomorrow when she wakes up and sees that we are here, she will be okay.” Lang Ruoxian seems to know her concerns, kisses the corner of Tang Duo’s mouth and says, “Go to take a bath. I shall look after her.”
Sweet Orange has slept all night, but suddenly she wakes up around 5 o’clock in the morning and finds herself sleeping between Tang Duo and Lang Ruoxian. She thinks of something and starts crying.
“Why are you crying?” Tang Duo sits up and yawns.
Sweet Orange rushes into her arms, “Mom! Mom! I’m the only one left at home, which is so horrible.”
