Chapter 106: Long memory
"You're pushing your luck!" Yu Nanqing was a little angry. She pushed him away, turned her head and crossed her arms, looking like she didn't want to talk to him.
Shen Mochen smiled, reached out and pulled her into his arms again. Her struggles caused him to slap her face a few times, but it didn't hurt or itch, though it left some finger marks. "I was wrong, wife. I was just going with the flow and rebelling a little. Please forgive me."
Seeing an opportunity to back down, Yu Nanqing took it, pursed her lips, leaned over and bit him, "I'll reluctantly forgive you."
"Thank you, honey, you're so generous." Shen Mochen nibbled on her ear, becoming slightly more serious. "Dad said he's going back tomorrow, how about we take him to the city center tonight?"
“Okay.” Yu Nanqing nodded, and when he heard that his father was going back tomorrow, he immediately sat up straight and his brows furrowed.
"We can go back to see Dad often in the future." Seeing her reluctance, Shen Mochen hugged her to comfort her, but a sadness welled up in his eyes where she couldn't see.
He was pathologically jealous.
Sometimes I desperately want to know if Yu Xiaoqing felt any reluctance when she left him, and if she ever thought about him after she left.
But she used to hate him so much, even wishing him dead, so how could she... possibly miss him?
Fortunately, she may still have feelings for him now.
--
The city center of Beijing is especially lively at night, with street performances everywhere and many people taking photos in the surrounding squares.
Shen Mochen held Yu Nanqing's hand tightly, and because it was cold, he put a hat and a mask on her.
Of course, he had ulterior motives; he didn't want others to see her beautiful face.
Yu Tu walked beside Yu Nanqing, glancing around every now and then. He had worked in the capital before, but that was more than ten years ago. Now things had changed, and even the bar he was most familiar with had been transformed into a beautifully decorated restaurant.
After shopping for a while, Yu Tu didn't buy much, but Yu Nanqing bought a lot of things, all of which were carried by Shen Mochen.
Yu Tu looked at the two of them, his expression becoming more composed.
He could tell that Shen Mochen was taking good care of Yu Xiaoqing.
Whether in life or in relationships.
The three of them ate dinner before coming out, but as soon as Yu Nanqing saw the street food, she couldn't move. She swallowed her saliva the whole way and tugged at Shen Mochen's clothes several times, but there was nothing to eat.
Seeing that they were almost out of the food street, she became a little anxious. "Shen Mochen, I want to eat."
"No." Shen Mochen looked down at her and decisively refused.
Although Yu Xiaoqing's stomach isn't that delicate and she can eat properly now, she still can't touch street food.
If he gets gastroenteritis, he'll be crying and yelling in pain.
"Just a little bit, nothing will happen." The aroma filled her nostrils, and Yu Nanqing felt that if she didn't eat, she would really die.
Seeing that Shen Mochen wouldn't budge, she turned to Yu Tu, "Dad..."
Yu Tu looked away as she turned her head, afraid that if he met her eyes, he would give in and say, "No."
Yu Xiaoqing was raised by him alone. She was delicate when she was little and had to eat the most expensive formula, otherwise she would vomit. At that time, the money he earned every day was enough to buy one-fifth of a can, but he would still buy it on credit for her.
After she was able to eat solid food, he cooked every meal for her himself. She was extremely picky about food, so he would always find a way to cook the ingredients she didn't like into flavors she liked, to prevent her from becoming malnourished.
Yu Nanqing got angry, pouted, and walked straight ahead.
Shen Mochen sighed softly, strode after her, and pulled her back into his arms. "Sweetie, I'll learn how to make whatever you want to eat another day."
Yu Nanqing turned to look at him, pondered for a long time before giving a soft reply, feigning compromise.
After walking for a while, she finally said she needed to use the restroom. Once out of their sight, she quickly turned back and picked out the takoyaki that looked the safest.
I bought four, ate them all in one go, and only after eliminating the evidence did I turn around to go back. But as soon as I turned around, I saw Shen Mochen standing at the end of the stall with a bunch of things in his arms.
She swallowed hard, her mouth twitching as it was filled with the aroma. Her heart skipped a beat. She wiped her mouth and walked toward him with a sullen face.
She had to strike first so that Shen Mochen wouldn't speak ill of her.
"Have you eaten enough?" Shen Mochen looked at her with a helpless expression. He knew what she was thinking just from seeing her eyes darting around.
Yu Nanqing paused for two seconds, then nodded, "Yes, I only ate a little bit."
Shen Mochen wiped her mouth and then cleaned her hands. "The ice cream wrapper that was in the trash can yesterday was the one you ate and threw away, wasn't it?"
Yu Nanqing's heart, which had just settled, jumped again. Her pupils dilated slightly, and a hint of guilt flashed in her eyes. "No!"
"Your ears are red, sweetie." Shen Mochen pinched her earlobe. "Little liar."
"You should be glad it doesn't hurt here, otherwise you'd never be able to eat ice cream again." He poked her stomach, then put his arm around her and walked back.
"My stomach isn't so delicate anymore; it's made of steel now." Seeing that he didn't seem angry, Yu Nanqing breathed a sigh of relief and joked with him.
Yu Tu was still sitting on the bench waiting. When he saw the two of them return, he put away his phone and asked, "Ready?"
Yu Nanqing paused, guessing that Shen Mochen was protecting her, and nodded without changing her expression, "Mm."
"Then...shall we go back?"
"Ah."
No sooner had she said she had an iron stomach than Yu Nanqing started experiencing stomach pain in the middle of the night. She clutched her stomach, cold sweat pouring down her forehead. She bent her knees and tried to endure it, but she couldn't take it anymore. She hurriedly pushed away Shen Mochen's hands that were tightly holding her and rushed into the bathroom.
Shen Mochen woke up when she got up, reached out to turn on the bedside lamp, took a coat from the closet, and stood waiting at the bathroom door.
After squatting in the toilet for nearly half an hour, Yu Nanqing finally opened the door and came out. When she saw Shen Mochen standing in front of the door, she froze for two seconds, her pale lips moved, and she stubbornly refused to admit that she had a stomachache. "You need to go to the toilet? I'm done, you can go now."
Shen Mochen stared at her, his expression somewhat unpleasant. He refrained from getting angry with her, reached out and hugged her, pressing his hand against her stomach. "Does it hurt here, or here?"
Yu Nanqing groaned twice, leaning weakly against his chest, "It all...it all hurts."
"Take your medicine first, then I'll take you to the hospital." Shen Mochen had already changed his clothes and prepared the medicine, waiting for her to come out.
After she took her medicine, he changed her clothes and then carried her towards the door.
Yu Nanqing frowned as she closed the door. "Dad, he..."
"I'll come back tomorrow morning to see Dad off. Be good, if you feel unwell, lean on my shoulder." Shen Mochen lifted her up a little by her bottom.
Yu Nanqing felt relieved and rubbed her head against his shoulder, "Shen Mochen, I will never eat it again."
Shen Mochen moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped himself, "...Hmm."
He didn't quite believe it; Yu Xiaoqing was just like that, never learning her lesson.
