A tear rolled down the corner of her eye. She quickly wiped it away and, suppressing the surging emotions in her heart, lifted the quilt as she did last night to move Zun Zun to the sofa, changed the sheets and quilt, and then placed Zun Zun back on the bed.

In the quilt, she held Zun Zun tightly;

Tears kept rolling down in the darkness.

She took a deep sniff, so, has Shaocheng been lying to her all these years?

Skull Society...

She understood much better than Huanhuan did. The agreement Shaocheng signed back then, he sold their son, he never properly handled the child’s affairs, he lied to her!

He sent Sheng Sheng away, sent him to a strange place...

Chenxing forcefully wiped away her tears, but couldn’t stop them, she wiped again, her emotions getting increasingly uncontrollable, continuously making sniffing sounds in the night.

"Mommy..."

Zun Zun woke up in the middle of the night and found his face wet. Zun Zun wiped it and sleepily called out to Chenxing, "Mommy, you got your nose mucus on my face, so dirty..."

Chenxing hurriedly pulled out a tissue to wipe his face, her voice struggling to remain calm, "Zun Zun, I’m sorry, Mommy..."

"Did Mommy cry?" Zun Zun’s big eyes were open, unable to see Chenxing’s face clearly in the dark, but the little one could sense something was wrong from Chenxing’s voice, "Mommy, what’s wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

It’s not so easy to fool him, "But Mommy, you were crying. Did Mommy have a nightmare?"

"No." Chenxing tried her best to conceal, her lips trembling, speaking in broken sentences, "Mommy... Mommy just misses Sheng Sheng too... too much, I don’t know... don’t know if he’s doing well, if he misses Mommy..."

Zun Zun reached out his little hand to wipe Chenxing’s cheeks, bringing his lips forward to give a kiss, "Don’t cry, Mommy, Zun Zun also misses Sheng Sheng, and I didn’t cry, see, Mommy, right?"

"Mm."

Zun Zun held onto Chenxing’s neck with both hands, "Mommy, Sheng Sheng must be doing well, Mommy I’ll tell you a secret, Sheng Sheng is more capable than Zun Zun, no one can bully him, he’s always the one bullying other kids, really, he’s stronger than Zun Zun, Mommy don’t cry, seeing you cry makes Zun Zun feel so sad."

"Okay, okay, Mommy won’t cry, Mommy won’t cry." Chenxing tightened her hold on Zun Zun, but despite saying so, she couldn’t control her emotions, "Zun Zun, if Sheng Sheng never comes back, will you be sad?"

"Why won’t he come back? Hmph, bad Sheng Sheng making Mommy cry, when he comes back I’ll hit him for you, for making Mommy cry."

Chenxing kept sniffling, her nose full of mucus, like the flooding Yellow River, "Then... then what if he doesn’t come back?"

"He won’t, Sheng Sheng also loves Mommy very much, Sheng Sheng wouldn’t let Mommy worry, don’t forget Mommy and I have telepathy with Sheng Sheng, Mommy don’t worry, I’ll call Sheng Sheng now," Zun Zun pretended to clasp his hands together, chanting, "Calling Sheng Sheng, calling Sheng Sheng, calling Sheng Sheng."

In fact, his telepathy didn’t work at all, but since Mommy was crying, he had to act like it was something real, then he burst out with an "ah," joyfully telling Chenxing, "Mommy, Sheng Sheng is talking to me."

"Really?"

"Of course it’s true, how could Mommy not believe that I have telepathy with Sheng Sheng, and we can communicate?" Zun Zun nodded emphatically, "Mommy, don’t make a sound, I need to concentrate to chat with Sheng Sheng."
