Fu Jingchuan's heart suffocated and he couldn't help but squat down towards her.
"What's wrong, Tongtong?"
he asked softly.
Tongtong just looked at him aggrievedly with red eyes and said nothing.
She was too young to answer.
"Tongtong?"
Seeing that she didn't speak, Fu Jingchuan called her again in a soft voice.
Tongtong glanced at An An hesitantly, then at Fu Jingchuan, without saying anything, but cautiously moved closer to him, and stretched out her little hand towards Fu Jingchuan, trying to pull the hem of his clothes, but looked at An An with concern.
Fu Youyou looked on the side dumbfounded.
This little girl's behavior towards Fu Jingchuan was clearly possessive.
Children over one year old are prone to express grievances and cry when they see their parents holding other children because they have begun to have a sense of "your" and "mine" property rights and lack a sense of security.
She couldn't help but look at Fu Jingchuan.
Fu Jingchuan had leaned forward and hugged the little girl, patting her shoulders softly with his palms to comfort her.
Fu Youyou's gentle look was something he had never seen before when he comforted An An.
Ever since she could remember, her brother Fu Jingchuan had always been cold and indifferent to her. He was not like other brothers and sisters who talked and laughed with her, and he was not a maniac about doting on his sister.
If she didn't take the initiative to find him, Fu Youyou couldn't help but wonder if Fu Jingchuan would remember her as his sister.
Later she would get married and have children. Although Fu Jingchuan liked children, he would not pamper a child like he does now.
This doting look is not what Fu Jingchuan would do to passerby children.
Fu Youyou's suspicious eyes couldn't help but look at the little girl held in Fu Jingchuan's arms.
From her angle, she could only see the profiles of the two of them.
The more Fu Youyou looked at it, the more mysterious the similarities became. He couldn't help but raise his phone and secretly took a photo.
Her cell phone was on mute, and Fu Jingchuan was comforting Xiaotongtong without paying attention to her. Fu Youyou was so unaware of the photo she took.
Xiao Tongtong calmed down quickly under Fu Jingchuan's comfort, but she seemed to feel embarrassed again. Seeing that An An was looking at her in confusion, she followed suit, timidly stretched out her hand towards her, and called her "sister" ".
An An was a little shy after being called out, stuck out her tongue and ran back to Fu Youyou.
Xiao Tongtong also looked at Fu Youyou, feeling a little at a loss.
Fu Youyou squatted down and asked her with a smile: "Kid, what's your name?"
"My name is Tongtong."
The little girl responded to her with a sweet voice.
Fu Youyou: "What's your last name?"
Xiao Tongtong shook her head blankly, as if she didn't understand what she meant.
Fu Youyou couldn't ask, and she didn't dare to ask Fu Jingchuan directly. She couldn't help but look at Sister Gao with a smile, and praised with a smile: "Your children are so cute."
Sister Gao smiled awkwardly: "Thank you."
Fu Youyou: "What's the kid's name?"
After asking, Fu Jingchuan paused and looked at Sister Gao.
Fu Youyou glanced at Fu Jingchuan in confusion, and couldn't help but look at Sister Gao.
Sister Gao smiled and replied, "Lin Yutong."
Not Fu.
Fu Youyou couldn't help but frown, doubting his own judgment, and couldn't help but glance at Fu Jingchuan, as if he saw a trace of disappointment on Fu Jingchuan's face.
She was not sure. When she wanted to see clearly again, Fu Jingchuan had stood up, his face looking calm as usual.
He raised his wrist and looked at his watch, then at the little doll he had caught, and then looked at Sister Gao: "Which building do you live in? I will send these dolls to you."
Sister Gao quickly waved her hand and refused: "No, I can handle it."
Fu Jingchuan nodded and did not force it. After all, it is normal for strangers to be defensive.
"Then I'll trouble you to take this child back."
Sister Gao nodded: "Okay."
Fu Jingchuan bent over and said goodbye to Xiaotongtong: "Tongtong, uncle still has to work, so he has to go home first. I'll play with you another day when I'm free, okay?"
Tongtong nodded hesitantly: "Okay."
Her eyes were a little reluctant, but she still let go of the little hand holding him.
Fu Jingchuan and Fu Youyou said goodbye, turned around and left.
When he walked out of the mall gate, Fu Jingchuan accidentally glanced at the giant display sign placed at the gate. The back of the shiny metal was as smooth as a mirror, and his small and thin figure was clearly reflected on the mirror.
She still stood there motionless, staring blankly in the direction he left, her eyes helpless and sad.
Fu Jingchuan inexplicably thought of Shiyang, Shiyang when he was seventeen years old.
He couldn't help but stop slowly, turned around, and looked in the direction of Tongtong.
Tongtong has been picked up by the tall fat woman and is carrying her to the other side of the mall.
Out of the corner of his eye, Fu Jingchuan saw Yan Yao still lingering at the gate of Shiyang Community, and his expression immediately turned pale.
He withdrew his gaze and walked towards the entrance of the community.
His car is parked over there.
Yan Yao also saw him, his eyes stopped on his face, and then looked behind him. He didn't say hello.
Fu Jingchuan ignored him and walked past him.
As they passed by, Yan Yao still spoke: "She is not happy when she is married to you, and the divorce can be regarded as a timely stop of losses. Since Mr. Fu has chosen to let go, don't bother her anymore."
Fu Jingchuan paused slightly: "This is a problem between me and her, and has nothing to do with outsiders. Just take care of yourself."
After saying that, Fu Jingchuan walked to the car without stopping, opened the door, and got in the car.
The car sped away.
Yan Yao watched the car go away without a trace.
At the door of the shopping mall next door, Sister Gao was walking towards the community with Tongtong in her arms, and she was also carrying a bag of rag dolls that Fu Jingchuan had packed for Tongtong.
When he got closer, Yan Yao walked towards Tongtong and called her: "Tongtong, do you still remember uncle?"
Tongtong glanced at him hesitantly and nodded.
Sister Gao also greeted him politely: "Hello."
When he came to see Shiyang just now, she and Shiyang were taking care of their children in the community. They met each other, but she didn't recognize him and didn't know his name.
Yan Yao also politely replied "Hello", then looked at Tongtong and handed her the gift bag he was carrying: "Can uncle give you a gift?"
The gift was an impromptu purchase at an outside store after he and Shiyang parted ways just now.
There are no particularly decent gift shops around the community, so it's not a valuable item, but the little girl likes to dress up as a little princess.
When he opened the gift, Xiaotongtong's eyes brightened obviously, but then calmed down quickly.
"Thank you, uncle." She thanked her sweetly, "But mom will be angry, and I don't want it."
Yan Yao looked at her: "Why is mom angry?"
"Mom said, you can't. Just take it as a gift from others." Tongtong whispered, reluctantly looking at the little princess dressed up in his hand, wanting it but not daring to take it.
"It's okay, uncle gave it to you, not Tongtong." Yan Yao thrust the little princess into her hand, "Mom won't be angry."
Tongtong's little head still couldn't understand the relationship between the two, so she looked at Sister Gao in confusion.
Sister Gao saw that it was just a doll, and it was given by someone familiar with Shiyang. The children also liked it, so she smiled and taught Tongtong to say, "Thank you, uncle."
Seeing that Sister Gao agreed, Tongtong was a little happy, so she followed Sister Gao's wishes and thanked her: "Thank you, uncle."
"You're welcome." Yan Yao touched her head and smiled, "My uncle's name is Yan Yao, and from now on I will call him Uncle Yan Yao, okay?"
Tongtong nodded in understanding, and called him obediently: "Uncle Yan Yao."
