Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Hearing the Voice, Eyes Reddening

That night, after Su Mu and Su Yimo had taken a bath, they realized that they had forgotten to bring Su Yimo’s little bathrobe. Su Mu dressed and instructed Su Yimo not to move before leaving the bathroom. It was at this moment that the phone rang. Since it was beside Su Yimo, she picked it up and saw an unknown number. She pressed the answer button:

"Hello."

The man on the other end was caught completely off guard and was silent for a few seconds. Unable to hear anything, Su Yimo moved the phone away from her ear to check it, confirming the call was still connected before speaking again:

"Can’t you hear me speaking?"

"I can hear you." Fu Shinian’s voice was somewhat urgent, he was worried that if he didn’t respond soon, the caller would hang up, and he didn’t want to miss the moment he had been waiting for all these three years: "Who are you?"

"I should be the one asking you that; Mum hasn’t saved your number. Do you know Mum?"

Fu Shinian chuckled softly, unknowingly his eyes reddening:

"Who is Mum?"

"My mommy, don’t you know her?"

"I do, I have known her for a very long time." Fu Shinian’s voice began to choke up slightly: "What’s your name?"

"Su Yimo, nickname Qiqi." Su Yimo gently splashed the water: "If you know Mum, why don’t you know me? It seems like I have never heard your voice before either."

This was when Su Mu came in and saw Su Yimo on the phone, frowning slightly:

"Whose call is it?"

Su Yimo looked up at Su Mu and smiled slightly, telling the person on the line:

"Mum’s back now, I’ll give her the phone."

Then she handed the phone to Su Mu: "It’s a man’s voice, but I’ve never heard it before."

Su Mu took the phone, glanced at the somewhat unfamiliar number, and held it up to her ear:

"Hello."

The other party was silent. Su Mu looked at the phone, puzzled, and confirmed she was still in the call. Just as she was about to bring it back to her ear, the caller had already disconnected. This made her feel suddenly uneasy. She stood there, dazed for a few seconds until Su Yimo’s voice broke her trance:

"Mum, what are you thinking about?"

Su Mu snapped back to reality, smiled faintly, and lifted Su Yimo out of the bathtub:

"Nothing much. What did the person on the phone say to you?"

"Nothing much, just asked my name."

"Did you tell him?"

Su Yimo nodded:

"Mum told me to answer other people’s questions, as it’s polite."

Su Mu was amused by her and carefully dressed her in a pink bathrobe, "But I’ve also said not to easily reveal your own information to strangers. This is for safety."

Su Yimo blinked:

"But he said he knows you, and has known you for many years."

Su Mu paused for a moment in his movements but didn’t show it, smiled faintly, carried Su Yimo back to the bedroom, sat her down in the bed, wiped her wet hair with a towel, and then dried her hair with a hairdryer.

When everything was done, Su Yimo held Su Mu’s hand:

"Su Mu, the uncle just now, do you know him? His voice sounds very nice, I think he must be handsome."

Su Mu pinched her little face:

"I have no idea who he is, but since Qiqi thinks he’s handsome, then he must be."

"Mmm, I’m going to tell Brother Shaoyuan about this."

After saying this, Su Yimo crawled under the covers and called Wen Shaoyuan, while Su Mu left some instructions for her before leaving the room to clean the bathroom. However, her mind was oddly drawn to that phone call just now. The phone number was from Shen City. Could it be him?

If it was him, what was the purpose of his call?

Su Mu originally thought he would continue to call, but he never did. Gradually, Su Mu also forgot about this incident, working and living as usual, and the days passed by peacefully for over a week.

Today, Su Mu needed to go to the photography studio to shoot portraits for a popular young celebrity. Qiqi was supposed to go along, as she liked to see handsome guys, but when she found out who it was, she lost interest, especially since the celebrity did not like children, even adorable ones like Qiqi.

Last time Su Mu took Qiqi there, she saw the young celebrity and immediately her eyes lit up. She hurriedly broke free from Su Mu’s hand to talk to him, but he didn’t treat Su Yimo seriously and even found her to be an annoying presence.

Qiqi did not initially sense his attitude toward her until she carefully touched a small ornament on his clothing, causing him to lose his temper. Unaware of whose child she was, he did not indulge her and directly scowled at her:

"Whose child are you? How can you be so impolite? Do you know how expensive my clothes are? Are you even supposed to touch them? What if you damaged or dirtied them, could you afford to compensate?"

Even as a child, she had her self-respect, and people’s attitudes are reciprocated. How you treat me, even if I don’t say it or can’t put it into words, I always know inside. Just like Su Yimo, being treated this way, she knew he didn’t like her, she withdrew her hand, didn’t cry, and simply murmured an "I’m sorry" before returning to Su Mu’s side.

She liked handsome guys, but not the ones who were rude or didn’t like Qiqi.

The young celebrity, seeing Qiqi return to Su Mu’s side, took Su Mu’s hand, suddenly confused as he still hoped that Su Mu’s photography would bring him a new wave of popularity, so he immediately switched to a more ingratiating tone.

"Su the great photographer, is this little child yours? I wondered why she looked so cute. You should have told me earlier to avoid misunderstanding."

Su Mu loved her child but also knew that her child wasn’t RMB; not everyone has to like her. She could accept this person not liking Su Yimo, but she could not accept such flattery and the speed of his face-changing, especially taking out his emotions on a child.

Seeing Su Mu not responding, the young celebrity took off the small ornament Su Yimo had touched on his own clothing and handed it to her:

"The little beauty seems to like this, so big brother will give it to you."

Su Yimo shook her head and hid behind Su Mu.

Su Mu smiled faintly, "You better keep this valuable item yourself. Kids don’t know their own strength, and you wouldn’t want it accidentally broken. We’re poor at home, and I’m afraid we couldn’t afford to pay for it."

Having said that, Su Mu directly took Su Yimo to the nearby preparation area for the photoshoot, completely disregarding whatever expression the young celebrity had.
