Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Going to Celebrate Sheng Qian’s Birthday

"Mummy mummy mummy mummy!"

Upon seeing Su Wanxin again, Yangyang just couldn’t stop talking.

"Mummy, did you miss me? I missed you! Mummy, did you eat? I haven’t eaten. I’m hungry. Can you feed me, please?"

He wrapped his arms around Su Wanxin’s neck, cooing for affection, kissing her cheeks, and then gingerly planting a kiss on her lips.

When Fu Shihan came over and saw this scene, his face darkened as he reminded, "Fu Yu’an, that’s about enough."

Using his full name indicated that the matter was somewhat serious. Yangyang shrank his neck and obediently complied.

"Why did you bring Yangyang over?" Holding her son’s soft little body, Su Wanxin felt a mess of emotions inside, none of them pleasant.

"Ask your son. How long has it been since he last ate?"

Fu Shihan glanced at Fu Yu’an with a teasing smile.

"Mummy, I’m really hungry." Yangyang was genuinely hungry as he rubbed his little belly, looking pitiful. "I didn’t eat anything yesterday."

Su Wanxin stiffened, her mind too troubled to ask anything else. She hurriedly held him and went to the dining room to prepare some food for him.

Yangyang ate his fill and had woken up early that morning, so he quickly fell asleep in Su Wanxin’s arms. She carried him back to the bedroom, settled him in, and then went out to find Fu Shihan.

"What’s going on?"

"He was throwing a tantrum to see you, and if he couldn’t, he’d go on a hunger strike." Fu Shihan was sitting behind his computer desk, and he glanced up at her. "Guess how mad my mother was because of him?"

"..."

"Used to coax you to eat, now I have to coax him. My mother says she must have been destined to feed others in this life."

"Stop talking."

Whenever Su Wanxin was reminded of Li Mo, she felt an aching sorrow, too painful to bear.

If anyone in the Fu Family was most reliant on Li Mo, it surely was her.

If anyone now felt the greatest guilt towards Li Mo, that was also her.

Fu Shihan raised his eyebrows and, as she wished, he continued to deal with the unanswered messages in his inbox.

He stayed in the study all day and, in the evening, he came to Su Wanxin to remind her, "We’re leaving in an hour."

He had mentioned last night that he would take her to celebrate Sheng Qian’s birthday. Su Wanxin had declined, but clearly, her refusal was ineffective.

Su Wanxin sighed deeply, with a hint of resignation. "Does it really have to be this way? Once a year, on a rare birthday, why make others distressed?"

"Lately, she’s not the only one who’s been upset."

If one grasshopper on a string is unhappy, then let’s all be unhappy together.

Seeing the expression on Fu Shihan’s face, Su Wanxin knew there was no room for discussion. She bowed her head and pondered for a while before nodding in acknowledgment.

So let’s meet. After all, it has to happen sooner or later, and it’s better to clarify things.

Su Wanxin got up and headed to the walk-in closet, not forgetting to ask Fu Shihan about the details of the gathering. "It’s all friends we know, no strangers, right?"

"Yeah."

Good, otherwise, even if it killed her, she wouldn’t appear in public with Fu Shihan.

Su Wanxin got ready and came out to leave with Fu Shihan. Then she noticed that Yangyang was also dressed, sitting on Fu Shihan’s lap, smiling at her, sending chills down her spine.

"...Yangyang is going too?"

"I’m going!" Yangyang answered sweetly. "Daddy said Aunt Qian is having a birthday. I’m going to sing ’Happy Birthday’ to Aunt Qian!"

Su Wanxin leaned weakly against the wall, suddenly not wanting to go outside again.

She looked deep into Fu Shihan’s eyes, listening to his very calm voice saying, "He was the one making a fuss to go, it has nothing to do with me." She really wished she could throw her phone right at his damned head.
