In the apartment, Lin Yu lay down early because Meimei was there.
The little guy was very well-behaved. He lay still and didn't dare to move.
Lin Yu smiled, "Does Meimei usually go to bed early?"
"I don't know." Xiao Meimei blinked her big eyes, "I will wait until dad comes back, but sometimes... I fall asleep while waiting."
She asked Lin Yu seriously, "Is it early?"
Lin Yu touched the little guy's head and said, "It's okay. Dad won't be at home at night. Will Meimei be scared?"
"One thing." The little guy's voice was full of milk. "The neighbors are very good to Meimei. There are no bad people, but Meimei sometimes has nightmares."
poor child.
"Then when dad is not at home, Meimei will come to sleep with auntie, okay?" Lin Yu asked warmly.
"Is that okay?" The little guy was obviously very happy.
"Of course, Auntie likes Meimei very much." Lin Yu really liked the little guy and gently scratched her nose.
Meimei smiled and stared at Lin Yu's belly curiously, "There are babies in Auntie's belly? Are they about to be born?"
"Well, it will probably take another five or six months." Lin Yu asked her, "Meimei, do you want to touch it?"
The little guy nodded.
Lin Yu took her hand and put it on his stomach.
"Is Auntie usually very hard?"
"A little bit." Because she was pregnant with two children, Lin Yu did have a harder time than ordinary pregnant women.
Meimei's eyes were red, "Meimei also came out of her mother's belly, right?"
"Of course." Lin Yu vaguely guessed the little one's thoughts and comforted her, "So, mom will not abandon Meimei, she will come back to you."
Unexpectedly, Meimei shook her head, "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if mom doesn't come back. As long as mom is happy, it will be fine."
This kid is really too sensible.
"Meimei is so good." Lin Yu covered her with a quilt, "Meimei, do you want to hear a bedtime story?"
"Bedtime story?" Little Meimei's eyes were filled with doubts, "What is it?"
Apparently the kid had never heard a bedtime story.
Lin Yu didn't explain, and asked the little guy to close his eyes and tell the story softly, "In the vast forest, there live all kinds of dinosaurs..."
Little Meimei fell asleep quickly, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
After she fell asleep, her little body involuntarily snuck into Lin Yu's arms, and her little hands grabbed the corners of Lin Yu's clothes, obviously afraid that Lin Yu would leave.
Lin Yu felt sad for a while, patted the little guy gently, and soon fell asleep himself.
At about one o'clock in the morning, she heard a knock on the door. When she got up and went out, she saw that Ren Lu was also awake.
"It's so late, who is it?" Ren Lu was woken up, obviously very irritable.
Lin Yu shook his head.
The two of them came to the door sleepily and asked in a low voice, "Who is it?"
"It's me, from downstairs." Cao Nan's voice sounded.
"Are you crazy? What time is it?" Ren Lu was speechless.
"I guess I'm worried about Meimei." Lin Yu couldn't help but feel sorry, "Ren Lu, you go to bed first, I'll tell him."
"Well, don't delay too long." Ren Lu sighed and dragged herself back.
Lin Yu opened the door and was stunned for a moment when he saw the person at the door, "You are..."
Cao Nan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and said impatiently, "I'm from downstairs, where's Meimei? I took her back."
He suddenly took a shower and tidied up so neatly that no one could recognize him.
"Meimei is asleep." Lin Yu discussed with him in a low voice, "How about I give it to you in the morning..."
"I'll take her back now." Cao Nan insisted.
"..." Lin Yu was really speechless. Seeing that the other party had no intention of changing his mind, "Okay, then you wait a moment and I will carry her out."
She went back quietly, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw Meimei sitting up.
The little guy was rubbing his eyes in a daze and said in a sweet voice, "Dad, you are back."
It was obvious that she had forgotten where she slept. She was probably in the same state when she was at home, and would wake up when she heard her father's voice coming back.
"Yes, daddy is back." Lin Yu stepped forward and gently picked up Meimei, and whispered in her ear, "Auntie will carry you to find daddy."
Perhaps Lin Yu's body was too warm and comfortable, so the little guy quickly fell asleep again.
Lin Yu handed the child to Cao Nan.
"Thank you." Cao Nan glanced at Lin Yu, hugged little Meimei and left. After returning home, he muttered to himself, "Why do I always feel like I've seen her somewhere before?"
Lin Yu returned to the room with a suspicious look on his face.
Before, Cao Nan looked slovenly every time he appeared, and she didn't see what he looked like. Today, he was clean, and Lin Yu felt a little familiar.
But after thinking about it, Lin Yu couldn't remember who he looked like, so he fell asleep again.
Early the next morning, Lin Yu and Ren Lu had breakfast together. When they went downstairs, they saw Cao Nan and Meimei.
"Good morning, aunt." Meimei greeted me obediently.
Ren Lu was surprised to see the man change his appearance and nodded.
"Good morning Meimei." Lin Yu touched Meimei's little head and looked at the man again, "Do you want to take the child out?"
"Yes." Cao Nan was obviously in a good mood, "Take the child to buy some new clothes. Her mother is back."
Lin Yu was overjoyed, "Congratulations to Meimei. Meimei is about to see her mother."
"Yeah." The little guy's face was full of joy.
On the way to the company, Lin Yu and Ren Lu couldn't help but discuss it.
"I really didn't expect that Meimei's mother would come back. Is this considered a prodigal son turning back?" Ren Lu clicked her tongue twice, feeling unbelievable.
Lin Yu smiled and said, "I was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to a child with great difficulty. How can I give up so easily?"
"I hope so." Ren Lu looked at Lin Yu's belly, "Being a mother is indeed not easy."
There was sadness in her eyes.
Lin Yu remembered that she was short of money before and didn't know if she had all the money.
Lin Yu hesitated for a moment, but still didn't ask any more questions. After all, it was obvious before that Ren Lu didn't want her to participate too much.
She could feel that Ren Lu had a strong sense of boundaries.
When she arrived at the door of the company, Ren Lu's phone rang. She took one look and let Lin Yu go in first.
Lin Yu knew that it was probably another call from home asking for money, so she nodded and left first.
Ren Lu walked to a corner where no one was and then answered the phone.
"I'll send the money at noon. Don't worry, I've collected it. You need to operate on him quickly."
There was a dissatisfied tone on the other end of the phone, "How can we still be greedy for your money? How can you be such a mother if you don't stay by your child's side?"
"I want to go back too, but I need money for my child's medical treatment. I..."
"What? Are you the only one who can make money in this family? You make some money and don't care about your children. How can you still be reasonable?"
"Mom!" Ren Lu looked helpless, "I don't mean anything else. I know it's hard for you to take care of Xiaozhi. Thank you very much."
"It's good to know. Send money quickly." The person on the other end hung up the phone directly.
