Stop There, Daddy

Chapter 20: A Terrible Mistake



The news coming from the other side of the phone finally reassured Wen Shuyue. Before He Siming could speak, she grabbed his mobile phone directly.

“Can you send me Baobao’s location? I’ll go find him.” Wen Shuyue got impatient and could no longer contain her anxiety.

After getting Baobao’s location, He Siming asked the driver to take them there. Along the way, Lin Lin kept comforting Wen Shuyue.

“Don’t worry too much since we already know where Baobao is. Baobao is so smart, and he’ll be okay.” Lin Lin patted Wen Shuyue on the back, somewhat blaming herself.

If she had come to school earlier, maybe Baobao would not have been taken away.

Wen Shuyue nodded with a forced smile.

How could she be able to feel relieved without ensuring that Baobao was safe? She couldn’t console herself after all.

He Siming sometimes glanced at Wen Shuyue and found that no matter how strong a woman was, she would have her softness and vulnerability. For Wen Shuyue, her soft spot was Wen Baobao.

“Buzz-”

“Who is that? Is there something wrong with Baobao?”

Hearing the phone ring, Wen Shuyue tightened her nerves. She fixed her beautiful eyes on He Siming, fearing to see the serious look on his face.

He Siming answered the phone, and his lip curved slowly.

“Nothing happened to him. A lady picked up the wrong child.” He Siming said with his deep and attractive voice.

“What’s wrong with her that she cannot even know her child? Geez, she really beats me. We almost freak out.” Lin Lin complained with her hands on her hips, both amused and angry.

No matter what the matter was, it would be the greatest comfort to Wen Shuyue as long as there was nothing wrong with Baobao.

Wen Shuyue took a deep breath and calmed down before looking seriously at He Siming.

“Thank you, Mr. He. If you had not sent someone to look for Baobao, I might not have found him by now.”

What she said was indeed true. He Siming got a lot of connections, even with the police and gangsters. And his subordinates were quicker to find missing people than the police.

Although Wen Shuyue did not want to rely on others, she still wanted to thank him from the bottom of her heart.

“Don’t mention it. Finding Baobao is also within my duty.” Said He Siming so coolly that nobody could make out any of his emotions.

His words were meant to remind Wen Shuyue that Wen Baobao was also his child.

Wen Shuyue understood what He Siming meant, but Lin Lin did not get it.

She also rubbed her hand against Wen Shuyue. “Hey, what does he mean? You two…”

“Don’t talk nonsense. We have nothing to do with each other.” Wen Shuyue interrupted Lin Lin before she could finish her sentence. Her eyes kept dodging, afraid to make eye contact with Lin Lin.

Lin Lin glanced at her, then put her hands around her chest, shrugged and whispered, “It doesn’t matter whether there is something between you two. He Siming is mine, and I will make him my boyfriend.”

Lin Lin’s voice was not loud that only Wen Shuyue and herself could hear.

Somehow, Wen Shuyue felt a little uncomfortable when Lin Lin said that. She always felt weird and sorry for Lin Lin.

Although she didn’t want to have anything to do with He Siming, it was impossible since Baobao was He Siming’s son.

If she concealed it from Lin Lin, she was worried that it would affect their friendship.

“Lin Lin, there’s something I want to tell you. Actually, Baobao…”

“Boss, here we are.”

Wen Shuyue was about to confess the matter to Lin Lin when the driver interrupted.

“Well,” He Siming hummed and got out of the car to look for Baobao with Wen Shuyue and Lin Lin.

It was a place for children’s recreation. As soon as they arrived, someone came out to greet them.

“Baobao? Where is Baobao?” Wen Shuyue rushed in. Her mind was now occupied with Wen Baobao, and she wanted to see him right away.

“Yueyue, don’t worry. Baobao is in there.” Lin Lin closely followed Wen Shuyue, afraid that she would do something stupid because she was too agitated.

Soon, the door of the innermost room was opened, and a woman in her early 20s carried Wen Baobao out.

“Mommy!”

As soon as Wen Baobao saw Wen Shuyue, he let out a pet cry and opened his arms to let Wen Shuyue embrace him.

Wen Shuyue’s eyes watered, and she hurriedly ran over to take Wen Baobao into her arms.

“Baobao, I’m scared to death. What shall I do if anything happens to you?” Said Wen Shuyue almost in a choked voice.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“Don’t worry about me, mommy. I’m all right.” Wen Baobao looked like a little adult, reached out the tender little hand, and kept pinching Wen Shuyue’s cheeks.

At first, Wen Shuyue was still trying to hold back her tears, but later she couldn’t help it and burst into tears.

She held Wen Baobao in her arms as if trying to fit him in her body and never be separated from him again.

He Siming’s eyes remained fixed on them and gradually softened as they clung to each other.
