Chapter 496: Chapter 496 Mu Shaoci & Shen Lu 41

Shen Lu felt the name was very pleasing to the ear, at least it was given by the child’s father.

Tears slid down the corners of her eyes in an instant.

Tongtong’s dad smiled and said, "You can hold him. I heard this ritual is particularly important, whoever holds him first, he will grow up to be like them. I hope the child can grow up to be as outstanding as Mr. Mu."

Mu Shaoci looked at the small and soft bundle, feeling his heart soften.

He extended his hands to hold him, looked at the wrinkly little face, and smiled.

"Truly adorable."

Shen Lu, afraid she couldn’t hold back her tears, turned away, "I’m a little tired, I’ll go to sleep first."

Tongtong said, "Brother Mu, do you want to try feeding the baby some sugar water?"

Mu Shaoci frowned slightly, "I don’t know how, I’m afraid of choking him."

Although he found it interesting, he still didn’t do it himself.

Mu Shaoci watched as Tongtong’s dad fed the child, feeling a bit envious inside.

If Shen Lu were here, they would probably be married with children by now.

Days, months, years passed.

On average, every month or two, Mu Shaoci would fly to country C to see this child he had named.

As time went by, he found the child oddly familiar-looking, bearing a strong resemblance to Shen Lu.

He felt like he was going a little crazy, longing for Shen Lu to the point of sickness.

But he never imagined, there was something crazier still.

One day, Little Yicheng called Mu Shaoci.

Mu Shaoci was somewhat pleased, "You miss me?"

"Brother Mu, I don’t want you to come see us anymore."

Mu Shaoci put down the pen in his hand, "Why?"

"My mom talks about you in her sleep every night, I feel like you’re seriously disturbing our family harmony. Although you’re great, you will always be just a brother, not a dad. Besides, every time you come, my mom has to wear a mask, it’s such a hassle. All the kids say my mom has a two-faced look."

Mu Shaoci’s mind buzzed, he couldn’t take in any more words.

He realized that the dumbest one wasn’t Shen Lu, but him.

Right under his nose, he just hadn’t noticed.

He immediately took a private jet to country C.

But by the time he arrived, Shen Lu had taken the child and run off again.

Mu Shaoci was amused and infuriated.

He found out from Tongtong’s dad that after Shen Lu arrived in country C, she stayed in his shop.

She wanted to assume the identity of his wife to avoid Mu Shaoci’s search.

After all, he was a lifesaver, Tongtong’s dad couldn’t refuse.

Thus, Shen Lu stayed.

Like this, until Shen Yicheng was seven years old.

This matter was completely unveiled.

Mu Shaoci called An Yan, "Little Five, this time you must help me find Shen Lu."

"Big Brother, there’s something I want to tell you."

"Go ahead."

"Actually, I know where Shen Lu is, but she begged me not to tell you because she’s already married to the chocolate shop owner, and they even have a child. I don’t want you to be heartbroken."

Mu Shaoci: "..."

An Yan, "Big Brother?"

Mu Shaoci didn’t expect An Yan to have kept this from him for so long, he was a pure fool!

"Little Five, I’ll give you a chance to make things right, find Shen Lu, and also our son."

An Yan: "...Your son?"

Mu Shaoci, "The boss told the truth, Shen Yicheng is my son."

An Yan fell silent, "I’m sorry Big Brother, and also congratulations on becoming a dad, I’ll find them for you now! We’ll definitely find them this time!"

Mu Shaoci had a throbbing headache, infuriated.

With An Yan on board, finding Shen Lu was easy.

When Mu Shaoci saw them, Shen Lu was eating dumplings with Shen Yicheng.

"Eat slowly, okay?"

Shen Yicheng, "Yeah, I know."

Shen Lu raised her eyes, and her face instantly paled, "How did you find us?"

Shen Yicheng’s eyes widened, "Brother Mu, how did you come?"

Mu Shaoci chuckled lightly, "Shen Lu, you’re really something, making my son call me brother."

Shen Lu: "..."

"You’ve hidden this from me for so many years, you must be pleased, aren’t you?"

Shen Yicheng still couldn’t digest the news, brother becoming dad?

He looked incredulously at Shen Lu, "Mom, so you had an affair long ago and even had me?"

Mu Shaoci: "..."

Shen Lu: "..."

Mu Shaoci sat next to Shen Yicheng, "Your mom and I were in love, it was just a misunderstanding that kept us apart for so many years. From now on, we will always be together, and never be apart again."

At night, Little Yicheng lay in the middle, Dad on the left, Mom on the right, extremely happy.

"Before, only Mom would hold me to sleep, now Dad is with me too, it’s wonderful."

Mu Shaoci kissed his little face, "Dad loves you."

After Little Yicheng fell asleep, Mu Shaoci and Shen Lu looked at each other.

The two moved to the living room, sitting beside the floor-to-ceiling window.

Shen Lu leaned against the man’s shoulder, "I’m sorry, it was my fault that we missed out on so many years."

Mu Shaoci held her tightly, "Let’s not talk about who was right or wrong. Let the past be in the past, and from now on let’s never be apart. Lulu, for all these years, I owe you an apology."

Shen Lu looked up, "What is it?"

Mu Shaoci kissed her lips, "I love you."

Tears streamed down Shen Lu’s face as she nestled in the man’s embrace, "Shaoci, I love you, too."
