Chapter 408 No one will hurt you
At this time.
The sound of a door opening came from inside the house.
Meimei peeked in and softly called out, "Mommy."
But when she didn't hear her mother's voice inside, she was puzzled when she heard her father's voice say, "Here."
Meimei ran quickly towards the balcony, calling out, "Daddy, Mommy!"
Meimei snuggled into her mother's arms, her big, bright eyes gazing at her expectantly. "Mommy, is anything else bothering you?"
Rong Shu gently stroked Mei Mei's little head and said softly, "Mommy is doing well now."
When her illness flared up, Sheng Tingchen didn't let Meimei see it. Only after she was given a sedative and fell asleep quietly did Sheng Tingchen allow Meimei to stay with her.
But Meimei could sense that her mother was different from before.
Meimei hugged Rongshu's waist and rested her head on her lower abdomen, "Meimei will always stay with Mom."
Rong Shu gently stroked Mei Mei's soft hair.
in the afternoon.
Sheng Tingchen accompanied Meimei to fly a kite on the grass, while Rong Shu sat on a bench by the lake watching them.
"Mommy, Mommy, look how high the kite is flying!"
Meimei jumped up and down excitedly.
Rong Shu looked up at the kite flying high in the sky. The sky was azure, with fluffy white clouds, a picture-perfect scene.
As she looked away, she inadvertently met the man's gaze.
Sheng Tingchen walked towards her with a kite reel, sat down next to her, and handed it to her. "Can you hold it?"
Rong Shu looked at it, raised her hand to try it, and found that she had more strength in her hand than at noon. She knew very well what her current situation was and that she needed to recover as soon as possible.
She reached out to take the wheel, but her hand couldn't grip it tightly.
Suddenly the kite swayed violently in the wind, and her hand was about to slip when a large hand gripped her tightly, giving her the strength to regain control.
Rong Shu's movements froze.
Meimei watched with a grin, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons as she lay on her mother's lap and said, "Mommy and Daddy are so beautiful."
Sheng Tingchen held the woman's hand tightly, showing no intention of letting go, and said to Meimei, "Otherwise, why would Meimei be so beautiful?"
Meimei smiled, showing off her little white teeth.
As dusk approached, orange light filled the sky, and the sea shimmered.
They went to the beach to watch the sunset. The waves lapped against the shore, and Meimei walked barefoot on the sand, carrying a small basket and bending down to pick up seashells.
Rong Shu sat in her wheelchair, looking at Mei Mei. Sheng Tingchen stood beside her, his gaze also fixed on Mei Mei's small figure.
The glow of the setting sun shone on Meimei, making her radiant.
This moment.
The whole world seemed gentle.
Meimei picked up a pretty seashell and ran up to Rong Shu.
"Mom, look."
Rong Shu looked down at them, reached out and took one, smiling as she said, "It's very pretty."
Sheng Tingchen glanced at her sideways. "Want to get up and try walking around?"
Rong Shu looked up at the man. She did want to walk around and see what it was like. She put the seashells in her hand back into Mei Mei's basket. Sheng Tingchen helped her stand up. Mei Mei put the basket on the ground and hurriedly reached out her little hand to pull her mother.
Rong Shu took off her shoes and stepped barefoot on the sand. The man's strong arms steadied her, and she was able to stand up.
"I can stand, so you can let go of me first."
Sheng Tingchen released her.
"Mom, be careful," Meimei said worriedly.
Rong Shu looked at Mei Mei and said with a gentle smile, "Mom is fine."
She tried to take a step, but her feet were uncoordinated. However, she could still stand and walk steadily. She took a breath and tried to keep her body steady.
The man beside her followed.
Rong Shu persevered and walked a short distance without falling. A joyful smile appeared on her face. She turned her head unintentionally and met the man's deep eyes. Perhaps it was the afterglow of the sunset that made him look exceptionally gentle.
He said, "There's no need to rush, take it slow."
Rong Shu looked away and hummed in agreement.
"It's getting dark, let's go back!"
Sheng Tingchen reached out and picked up the woman, carrying her back to her wheelchair. He then knelt down and patted the sand off her feet.
"you……"
Rong Shu felt an itch in the soles of her feet and wanted to pull her feet back, but her feet had no strength at all, and her ankles were being held by the man.
Meimei squatted down and used her little skirt to wipe her mother's feet.
"Meimei, your skirt is dirty," Rong Shu quickly stopped her.
Meimei looked at her mother and said, "Daddy will buy me a new dress."
Sheng Tingchen helped Rong Shu put on her shoes, then picked up Meimei and took her to the beach to wash her little feet. Meimei suddenly felt playful again, splashing water hard and giggling.
Sheng Tingchen held her up and down for a couple of moments.
"Okay, that's enough playing."
Then let Meimei wipe the water off the soles of her feet on her own pants.
Rong Shu sat in her wheelchair watching the father and daughter.
Sheng Tingchen carried Meimei around and walked back, put shoes on her, and then pushed Rong Shu away, with Meimei following behind, her hand on the armrest of the wheelchair.
We took a shuttle bus back to the manor.
It had gotten completely dark.
Before going to bed at night.
Sheng Tingchen was telling Meimei jokes from a storybook. It was hard to imagine that a man who was decisive and serious in the cutthroat world of fame and fortune would tell jokes.
Meimei was so amused that she nestled in Rong Shu's arms, laughing so hard she almost fell over. Her laughter echoed throughout the room.
Rong Shu hugged Mei Mei and stroked her back.
Sheng Tingchen closed the storybook and placed it on the bedside table. "Alright, baby, come and go to sleep."
Mei Mei gradually calmed down in her mother's arms, and Sheng Tingchen reached out and took her off Rong Shu.
After putting Meimei to sleep.
Sheng Tingchen looked at Rong Shu lying beside Mei Mei and said, "Go to sleep!"
He reached out to turn off the light.
Rong Shu said, "Don't turn off the light, leave one on."
Sheng Tingchen paused in his action of turning off the light, leaving a warm light that wasn't too bright. He lay down on the other side of Meimei and slowly closed his eyes.
Whether it was Rong Shu's imagination or not, she felt that Sheng Tingchen seemed unusually tired today.
However, she was unusually clear-headed at the moment.
She tried to fall asleep, but just couldn't.
Everything around her fell completely silent. The faint light could not penetrate the darkness. The moment she closed her eyes, her heart began to clench uncontrollably. It was as if she saw a bloody scene again. She stared wide-eyed and suddenly opened her eyes. The darkness around her seemed to be swallowing her up.
"what!"
Rong Shu couldn't help but scream and clutched her head tightly.
The man, who was sleeping lightly, was awakened. He turned his head and saw the woman trembling with her head in her hands. Sheng Tingchen reached out to turn on the light, lifted the blanket, got out of bed, went around to the other side, and reached out to pick the woman up from the bed.
My hand had just touched it.
Rong Shu began to struggle and resist again, staring at the man in front of her in a panic.
The man softened his voice and reassured her, "Don't be afraid, no one will hurt you. Meimei is sleeping, don't wake her, she'll worry if she sees you like this."
