Chapter 42: Bashfulness (2/2)

Bo Yu recalls the past with a sad face, and unconsciously picks up a cigarette. In the grieved sight of little Watermelon, he hasn’t lit up the cigarette, but holds it in his mouth to relieve his craving.

Little Watermelon lies on the table with Bo Yu to show off the flowers and grass he draws. Then he stops all of a sudden and tells Bo Yu in a low voice that Mo Anyu comes to school today.

Bo Yu frowns. In his impression, Mo Anyu won’t do such a thing.

But on second thought, he and Mo Anyu are just ordinary friends, only have known each other for half a year, and it’s no surprise that they don’t know each other well.

Bo Yu coughs and says, “little Watermelon, is Uncle Song here?”

Bo Yu awkwardly touches his nose. If he knows the reason, he won’t ask Song Shilin.

The next second, they close their mouths at the same time, no longer talking, just quietly watch each other on the screen.

Bo Yu puts one hand on his thigh, tightly clenches his fist, and nervously looks at Song Shilin. He hasn’t looked at each other like this for a long time.

There is ambiguous breath in the air.

However, when Song Shilin thinks that Bo Yu wants to do something the next second, or opens his mouth to break the silence, the video call is suddenly hung up.

Little Watermelon pouts, “Where is Papa?”

Song Shilin, “...”

Bo Yu, who is far away from him, “...”
