Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Chapter 287 A Tacit Understanding Filled With Misunderstanding

Ran Xueyi's attempt to hide him was of course ridiculous and unreasonable. She even wondered why she was doing this when she could have easily exposed everything. But because of the sudden appearance of Song Yu Han being thrusted into their lives after three years of separation made things a bit rushed.

Initially, Ran Xueyi wanted to take things slowly and let the father and son bond together. But with them being so overly possessive over her, she was afraid that either will become territorial that they would even view each other as rivals.

As funny and absurd that notion was, Ran Xueyi knew better that this would end with another two rivals facing each other in the battlefield with her being the prize at the end.

However, Ran Xueyi's plans that worked so well to others seemed to not have any effect when it comes to her son.

Xiao Zhanzhan entered the room as soon as Ran Xueyi took a step back from the closet. His brown eyes glanced at her silently before he smiled, "Mommy is home?"

Ran Xueyi walked to him and patted his head, "Yes, mommy had something to do this morning."

"Oh? Then, mommy, do you want to play with me?"

Ran Xueyi agreed quickly, "Sure! What do you want to play?"

Xiao Zhanzhan's lips lifted into a smile as he replied, "Hide and sheek. We're playing hide and seek. So, Mommy hash to be the one to find us."

Ran Xueyi listened to him and felt that something was wrong, but seeing her son's eager eyes staring at her, she didn't have the heart to say no to him. So, in the end, she was pushed back by her son outside of the room and told her to count to a hundred when she reached downstairs.

Ran Xueyi looked up at the staircase leading upstairs and sighed.

"One…Two…Three…—"

"Fifty-six… Fifty-seven…"

Ran Xueyi faithfully and patiently counted up to a hundred, leaning her body against the railings of the stairs before sweeping her gaze around the living room. When she was about to count one hundred, she never thought that something unexpected and most definitely not planned happened.

A few minutes earlier.

Xiao Zhanzhan came running atop the stairs as soon as he heard Ran Xueyi counting. He excitedly skipped two steps at a time and when he finally reached the third floor, he stopped and looked around the doors on each side of the wall.

He contemplated seriously and adorably where he would hide. All of the hiding places in this house has been used by him while playing hide and seek with Mommy and Auntie Yiling.

Mommy will easily find me! Xiao Zhanzhan worriedly thought.

Then, he suddenly remembered that Mommy's room has been off-limit.

It was the perfect hiding place!

But… where could A'Yu be hiding now? Mommy can't find him right?

Xiao Zhanzhan thought of another worrying matter. Last time, his mother warned him to not talk to strangers and don't let anyone inside the house without her permission.

"Oh no, Mommy should not see A'Yu!" Xiao Zhanzhan was most afraid of being spanked on his butt! He cannot allow his mother to find out that he let another person inside the house.

But little did he know that Ran Xueyi, the person he was most afraid of finding out that he let someone inside the house, was also hiding 'someone' in the closet. The mother and son pair seemed to have reached a certain point of tacit understanding filled with misunderstanding.

"Eighty-nine!"

Xiao Zhanzhan shuddered when he heard that Ran Xueyi was almost finished counting. He decisively decided to forget about finding A'Yu and find a hiding place for himself. He could just act pitifully in front of her when she finds out the truth.

With his short legs, Xiao Zhanzhan reached the fourth floor and saw Ran Xueyi's room. He hurriedly entered and looked around again.

The bed was not a safe place to hide, his mommy could easily guess he would hide there. The desk was not low enough to hide his feet!

Suddenly, a huge closet caught his attention.

Xiao Zhanzhan made no hesitation to pull the doors of the closet open and jumped straight inside it before closing it tightly while not knowing that it was already preoccupied.

Xiao Zhanzhan, who was hiding from his mother: "…."

Song Yu Han, who was hiding from him, "....."

As if fate was mockingly laughing at them, the two who had different agendas found each other.

"A'Yu? What are you doing here in Mommy's closhet?"

Song Yu Han said defeatedly: "…I wonder."

Xiao Zhanzhan's eyes lit up, "You're also hiding from mommy?"

Song Yu Han: I'm hiding from you!

Sighing helplessly, Song Yu Han couldn't even understand the essence of him hiding anymore. Feeling that being inside the closet was too stuffy and hot, he decided to not hide anymore.

He pushed the closet open and was about to get outside when he felt someone tugging the hem of his shirt.

"Shh! Mommy will come here soon! Don't come outshide!"

Song Yu Han felt a slight pain in his head.

He said, "Mommy will not come here any moment now. Why not do this? Let's change our hiding place?"

Xiao Zhanzhan tilted his head to the side and stared at him curiously, "Where?"

Song Yu Han looked around and decided to point towards the bed.

"No… mommy knows I will hide under the bed! She will find us!"

"Who said it's going to be under the bed?"

Without explaining further, Song Yu Han lifted the little guy into his arms and carried him to the bed. He and Xiao Zhanzhan lied in it and covered themselves with the quilt.

Xiao Zhanzhan shot him a suspicious glance, wondering how will hiding under the quilt help them hide. However, Song Yu Han did not say anything else and only gathered the little guy's body to his chest and let him stay there.

As if riddled with guilt, Ran Xueyi avoided her room and checked everywhere. When it was almost fifteen minutes later and she found not a trace of her son, her heart skipped a bit and an incredulous thought entered her mind.

It couldn't be right?

Ran Xueyi rushed to the fourth floor and entered her room, panting and heavy breathing. She stood in front of the closet and held her breath as he pulled it open.

Nothing.

There was no one inside it.

Where was he then?

Ran Xueyi looked around her room and found something unusual. She moved her feet towards the bed where the quilt was raised slightly higher as if it suddenly got pregnant.

It took her only one glance and she knew what was inside that unidentified bulge in her bed.

Her eyes curved. She raised her wrist and lifted the quilt to reveal what was inside.

There, she saw Song Yu Han hugging their son, who had his eyes closed, sleeping peacefully.

Their gazes met briefly and she smiled.

"He found me then fell asleep." Song Yu Han smiled back at her and lifted the quilt above him, he gestured with his hand and invited her in.

Ran Xueyi readily jumped inside and the three lied in bed with Song Yu Han between the two of them.

The three shared a rare moment that they never got to share with each other all these years.

If someone actually told them in the past that they would have this kind of future, Ran Xueyi and Song Yu Han would absolutely not believe it.

They lived a life full of suffering and pain.

Where and when will they ever get to live a peaceful life with their loved ones?

But the impossible happened in front of their eyes.

Both Ran Xueyi and Song Yu Han were already content to have the impossible possible in their lives.

Time passed and the day of departure finally arrived.

Ran Xueyi packed their suitcase and put another layer of jacket around Xiao Zhanzhan's tiny body.

Xiao Zhanzhan happily received his mother's care and excitedly looked forward to the day he get to live with A'Yu once again.

Looking back to that time after their game of hide and seek failed because he fell asleep, Xiao Zhanzhan was so happy he got to see his mommy and daddy getting along so well.

He even got to sleep between them every night.

It was just that, A'Yu would always find a way to separate him and his mommy. What was going on with him? But then, every time he found them, he would always see A'Yu hugging Mommy. Sometimes, mommy was in tears and he wondered why that was.

But mommy would always tell him it was tears of joy so he didn't need to step forward to complain to A'Yu.

A'Yu also bought him a lot of toys and chocolate so he forgot about everything.

This year was his favorite year because A'Yu appeared and joined their family.
