Gu Shaocheng frowned deeply and said nothing.

Chenxing patiently fed their son, Maimai, and stroked his head, "You don’t have a fever, Zun Zun. Tell mommy where you’re not feeling well?"

"I’m not unwell." Zun Zun shook his head.

"Did you overdo it playing yesterday?" Chenxing guessed?

Zun Zun hummed, then opened his mouth again, and after finishing a mouthful of porridge, said, "I didn’t play anything yesterday." He just kept calling out for Sheng Sheng in his heart all day long, but couldn’t reach him. It must be the bad signal, Zun Zun grumbled in his mind, letting his imagination run wild.

Days without Sheng Sheng were really boring!

Although Sheng Sheng was a bit of a tomboy, he had energy and could chirp away non-stop with Sheng Sheng, even if he was the only one talking from start to finish, and Sheng Sheng just occasionally responded with a couple of perfunctory "mm" sounds, he still found life interesting.

Zun Zun suddenly had a bright idea: "It must be that Sheng Sheng played too much outside yesterday, which made me very tired too, it must be that, hmph!"

Zun Zun gave a heavy hum, clearly unhappy, and looked at mommy and daddy gloomily: "Mommy... Daddy... can I call Sheng Sheng? I want to give him a good scolding, he just plays by himself and doesn’t take me with him."

Oh, I really miss Sheng Sheng!

Mentioning Sheng Sheng immediately put a sour expression on Chenxing’s face, sour enough for Gu Shaocheng to see, then she said too, "Mommy also really wants to call Sheng Sheng."

Zun Zun’s eyes twinkled cutely: "Then hurry and call, mommy."

Chenxing’s nose tingled, and she raised her voice repeating, "I really want to hear Sheng Sheng’s voice, want to know if he’s doing well, eating well, dressing well, living well, I want to know everything."

Seeing Gu Shaocheng unresponsive made Chenxing even more furious, "Or maybe I’ll go to America myself and bring Sheng Sheng back. How about that?"

Zun Zun immediately perked up: "Mommy, I want to go too!"

Gu Shaocheng still didn’t respond, Chenxing couldn’t take it, "Gu Shaocheng, are you even listening to me?"

"Gu, Shao, Cheng!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shaocheng raised his eyes, "Take good care of Zun Zun at home. Once I finish breakfast, I’ll go to America."

Chenxing immediately beamed, "Are you going to pick up Sheng Sheng?"

"I’ll be on a business trip to America, possibly needing a few weeks. Once there, I’ll personally take care of Sheng Sheng, does that put your mind at ease?"

A business trip? Chenxing pursed her lips, "But I haven’t heard Sheng Sheng’s voice in so long, I really miss him. As soon as you see him, call me and let me talk to him, okay? Preferably a video call, I won’t feel at ease without seeing him."

"We’ll see."

Hearing this, Chenxing said, "What do you mean, ’we’ll see?’ Aren’t you worried that Sheng Sheng might not be comfortable outside? Have some empathy for a mother’s heart, alright? We’re not in an age of poor communication; I just want to call my son to see if he’s doing okay. Why does there need to be any we’ll see?"

"There’s indeed no network where Sheng Sheng is, and the signal is bad. That old professor retired and lives in a resort villa in the countryside, otherwise Qianqian wouldn’t stop you from talking to Sheng Sheng." Gu Shaocheng put down his spoon and elegantly wiped his mouth, "Rest assured, the child is eating and living well. Boys need to develop independence from an early age, nothing will happen."

"But I’m so tired," Zun Zun said, "It must be Sheng Sheng, playing too much, getting very tired, and tiring me out too."
