Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 301 Is She Qualified for That?

The two women hold each other to cry. Xia Ning entered the room hurriedly and forgot to close the door. Zhang Hai gently closes the door. He turns around and sees a little girl walking to him. They look at each other. The little girl stops there as if time stood still.

Zhang Hai feels it a little funny. It is Zhenzhen.

How can this little kid find here by herself? Is she looking for Li Baoer?

“Zhen...”

“Shh!” Zhenzhen puts a finger on her lips and motions for Zhang Hai to keep silent.

Zhang Hai blinks his eyes and nods.

Li Baoer is heartbroken. Mrs. Yi is comforting her. Zhenzhen is really not supposed to show up here at the moment.

Zhang Hai points at a direction, telling Zhenzhen to talk with him in somewhere else.

Zhenzhen nods. They walk towards a small balcony not far away.

“Little girl, when did you come here?” The balcony faces outside and enjoys a open scenery. Their conversation here will not be heard by others.

Zhenzhen looks out of the balcony. She happens to see some little birds flying away. She asks meaningfully, “Brother Zhang Hai, do you think the birds have a home?”

“Yes.” Zhang Hai understands why Zhenzhen came up with this question. He feels his heart a little tightened, “Every bird has its home because they can build their own nests.”

“Build nests...” Zhenzhen thinks for a while and then she says, “So, I am also building my nest.”

Zhang Hai smiles, “You are too young. You don’t need to build your nest yourself. Adults will protect you.”

“Brother Zhang Hai, where are your parents?”

“They are not here. Why do you ask about that?”

Zhenzhen’s eyes gleam sadly, “Brother Zhang Hai, my mother and my father passed away. Uncle Dai is my present father. However, it seems that Sister Baoer doesn’t like me.”

Hearing this, Zhang Hai feels very sad for her. He strokes Zhenzhen’s head, “That is silly. You are so cute. How can Sister Baoer not like you?”

“Then, why Sister Baoer is crying in the room.”

Zhang Hai fails to respond at once. Instinctively, he doesn’t want to lie to the kid. However, if he tells the truth, he is afraid that Zhenzhen is still too young to understand.

The real reason for Baoer’s being sad is not about Zhenzhen, but about Colonel Dai.

Zhang Hai gives a sigh. He crouched down to Zhenzhen and says slowly, “Zhenzhen, I don’t know how to explain it to you. Even if I explain it, you may not understand. Because it is something between adults. However, I can guarantee one thing. Sister Baoer is sad, but it is not all because of you. Do you understand?”

Zhenzhen frowns. She thinks seriously for a while then nods with confusion, “I will try hard to understand.”

Zhang Hai smiles to stroke her head, “Can you tell me why you are here? Where is Colonel Dai?”

“Last night, dad and mom quarreled angrily. Then, dad went out, while mom cried in her room. After that, mom went out. I was worried about her. So, I followed her here.”

Zhang Hai nods. He suddenly remembers something and turns worried, “When did you come out last night?”

Zhenzhen blinks her eyes, “I don’t remember the time. It was dark. Mom walked in the street for a long time. I secretly followed her. I was afraid that she might find me. Then, mom walked to this hotel. She asked for the room and I came in too. I didn’t have money and I was too sleepy. So, I fell asleep on the sofa in the reception.”

Zhang Hai feels a little hurt for her. He holds Zhenzhen’s little hand, “You haven’t had any food. Right? Come with me. I will take you to eat something.”

“No. I don’t want to go.” Zhenzhen stands there, “Mom hasn’t had anything either. I am worried about her.”

Zhang Hai feels his heart softened. Zhenzhen addresses Li Baoer mom so naturally, which means she really regards Li Baoer to be her mother.

“Don’t worry about your mom. Sister Xia is there with her. She will be fine. Go with me to eat something. OK?”

Zhenzhen thinks for a while and strokes her belly. She really feels hungry so she nods, “OK. Let’s go to eat.”

Zhang Hai holds Zhenzhen’s hand. He takes out his phone and sends a message.

Inside the room.

Li Baoer hears Xia Ning’s words. She stops tearing. However, she still can’t figure it out at once.

“Zhongheng...doesn’t love that woman?”

“Surely not. Colonel Dai knew Zhenzhen’s mother before. He felt Zhenzhen pitiful. So, he took her with him. Baoer, don’t take it wrong.”

Li Baoer feels her brain in a mess. She frowns, feeling her head aching.

If Dai Zhongheng didn’t like that woman, why did he go to see her?

If he really didn’t like her, why did he hide it from her for such a long time?

If he really didn’t love her, why did he care about Zhenzhen so much?

Did Dai Zhongheng really... have no “relation” with that woman?

Xia Ning is aware of Li Baoer’s suspicion. She realizes that Li Baoer may not be able to get over the problem so soon.

No one can get over things like this very soon.

“Baoer, where is Colonel Dai?”

Li Baoer darkens her eyes, “He was summoned by an urgent call last evening. He might get some tasks.”

Xia Ning feels her heart tightened, “Baoer, no matter how displeased you are, you need to wait because what Colonel Dai does are all dangerous. If he is distracted...” Xia Ning stops.

Li Baoer widens her eyes and stands up at once, “Yes. How can I neglect that?” Li Baoer sticks her fingers into her hairs and scratches, “I am a real fool! I distracted Zhongheng. What was I doing? God. Zhongheng, please be safe!”

Xia Ning feels relieved in her heart. Seemingly, Dai Zhongheng is always the first priority in Li Baoer’s heart even when she is unhappy. As long as she cares about Dai Zhongheng so much, Li Baoer will adjust herself to accept the issue soon.

Xia Ning feels her phone shake. It is the alarm for messages. Looking at it, Xia Ning widens her eyes.

It is from Zhang Hai: Mrs. Yi, I take Zhenzhen to have some food. The kid followed Miss Li and slept in the reception of the hotel last night.

Xia Ning feels sorry for Zhenzhen. She is really a kind kid.

“Baoer, when did you come out last night?”

“It might be past two. I quarreled with Zhongheng and then he was summoned to go. I was sad for quite a while and came out to take some fresh air...”

“Look.” Xia Ning passes her phone to Li Baoer, “Zhenzhen was worried about you and followed you the whole night.”

Li Baoer feels very surprised to read the message on the phone. After quite a while, she says, “Zhenzhen...God. I didn’t notice her at all! I, I am really...”

Li Baoer feels ashamed and guilty to make a kid worried about her.

“Baoer, no matter what happens, the most important thing is to have all the family safe together. Colonel Dai struggled for a long time before he made the decision. He was afraid that he might bring burdens to you. I told him at that time that Baoer was a kind woman and she would surely understand you. And...” Xia Ning leans to Li Baoer and says in a low voice, “You are the person Colonel Dai loves most. You are going to have your wedding banquet next month. You have to trust your man.”

Li Baoer blushes to hear Xia Ning’s words. She feels embarrassed and turns away her face. She curls her lips, “Ning, let’s go to see Zhenzhen. I feel hungry.”

“OK.” Xia Ning feels a little relieved. It is good that Li Baoer wants to eat something.

However, ...

Why did Colonel Dai tell the truth to Baoer at this critical moment?

Xia Ning and Li Baoer find Zhenzhen in the MacDonald just opposite to the hotel. The table is full of foods, but Zhenzhen only eats potato chips from time to time. It seems that she has no appetite at all.

Zhenzhen sees Li Baoer and Xia Ning coming. She widens her eyes and stares at Li Baoer, who goes to sit by her.

Zhenzhen’s hairs are a little messy. Li Baoer feels very guilty. She puts a fried drumstick in Zhenzhen’s hand, “You haven’t eaten anything for a whole day. Don’t you feel hungry?”

“Mom” is finally willing to talk to her!

Zhenzhen feels very glad. She smiles and nods. But then, she shakes her head, “Does Sister Baoer feel hungry?”

“Yes. I am hungry. Look, we have got a lot of foods here. May I join you to finish them?”

“Yeah!” Zhenzhen nods forcefully. She takes over the fried drumstick and puts it in front of Li Baoer’s mouth, “Sister Baoer first.”

Li Baoer bites a mouthful of the fried drumstick, “Come on. Zhenzhen, you eat some too.”

Xia Ning feels released to see them talk and laugh. At the time, Zhang Hai says, “Zhenzhen, you didn’t call her Sister Baoer. You called her mom just now.”

Hearing this, Zhenzhen feels shy and she blushed, “I...I...”

Li Baoer feels greatly moved. Zhenzhen stayed with her recently. The kid was very kind and obedient. She even cooked for Li Baoer sometimes... To be honest, Li Baoer feels that Zhenzhen is looking after her instead of being taken care by her.

“Zhenzhen, did Brother Zhang Hai tell the truth?”

Zhenzhen’s face turns redder. She lowers her head but nods.

Li Baoer feels all kinds of emotions in her heart. She gives a sigh of relief. She holds Zhenzhen, “Sister Baoer has not got married and doesn’t have any experience of being a mother. So, I may not do well in many aspects. Won’t Zhenzhen blame me for that?”

Zhenzhen lifts her head. She stares at Li Baoer with her watery eyes. She seriously shakes her head, “As long as Sister Baoer doesn’t hate Zhenzhen!”

Li Baoer softens her eyes and suddenly feels herself a mother, “Then, Sister Baoer will try her best to be Zhenzhen’s mom.”

“Sister Baoer...”

“Call me Mom.”

“... Mom, don’t worry. I will be obedient. I won’t bring trouble to you. After I grow up, I will repay you truly.”

“You Little Fool.” Li Baoer feels moved. She holds Zhenzhen tightly. For an instant, she feels she was too narrow-minded.

She was too narrow-minded compared to this little kid.

At the time, Xia Ning’s phone rings. She takes it up and finds Dai Zhongheng calling.

Why does Dai Zhongheng call her? He should call Li Baoer if necessary.

“Baoer, do you turn on your phone?” Xia Ning asks.

Li Baoer seems to remember something, “No. I called you and turned it off.”

Xia Ning understands. She passes her phone to Li Baoer, “Colonel Dai is calling.”
