Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist's Uncle

Chapter 211: Crying Without Tears

“Xiaoqi!” Ling Sheng tugged at the paper in a flurry and shouted from the washroom. “Mommy’s here! Did you have a nightmare?”

“Mommy!” Upon hearing the sound of her voice, Xiaoqi dashed over and knocked hard on the door. In a hoarse voice, he shouted, “Mommy! Mommy, are you in there?”

Tears welled in Su Xiyin’s eyes as she hit Huo Ci. “You scumbag! Look, this is all your fault.”

Huo Ci was dumbfounded as he tried to dodge. He wanted to cry, but no tears came. He could be blamed for everything. “Mother, you’re being unreasonable. I didn’t do anything. What does the brat’s breakdown have to do with me? Why don’t you hit that brat?”

Upon seeing that he still dared to talk back, Huo Xiao hit him with his walking stick. “How is this none of your business? If you weren’t brainless, my good grandchild would not have been able to wander around for so many years and suffer so much. How dare you say it’s none of your business? I will beat you to death!”

Huo Ci’s handsome face was ashen, but he could not retaliate. He gritted his teeth and raised his hand in surrender. “Okay, okay, okay, it’s all my fault. It’s all my fault. I’m not a good person, alright?”

“Are you beating around the bush to anger me?” Huo Xiao was even angrier now. He lashed out with his walking stick again. “If you’re not a good person, then what am I?”

“Grandpa!” Ling Sheng shouted as she tried to save Huo Ci’s life. Upon seeing him glare at her, she stormed back into the house angrily and slammed the door. Her eyes were full of sympathy as she smiled at Huo Xiao. “Grandpa, it’s really not my father’s fault.”

“Don’t put in a good word for him. If that scumbag was not so irresponsible as to need someone to wipe his butt after defecating...”

“Hubby!”

Su Xiyin interrupted him and glared at him. What kind of nonsense was he spouting?

Only then did Huo Xiao react. He smiled lovingly and dotingly. “My good grandchild, Grandpa isn’t talking about you... Grandpa is scolding him. My good grandchild is a flower and a treasure.”

Ling Sheng was amused by the Old Master. She wiped her son’s tears and comforted him gently. “You had a nightmare. Mommy will not leave you, Xiaoqi. Mommy swears.”

Xiaoqi sobbed. His big red eyes stared at her as he reached out with his pinky. “Then you will pinky promise. Mommy will not abandon Xiaoqi.”

Ling Sheng pinky-promised. “Mommy will not abandon Xiaoqi.”

Xiaoqi felt very insecure. The original Ling Sheng had abandoned him a few times, but in the end, she had found her conscience and returned to find him, leaving a deep shadow in the child’s heart.

Su Xiyin looked at Xiaoqi before looking at Ling Sheng. She let out a low sigh, her heart aching. She had no idea how much suffering her granddaughter had been through in all these years.

She had also noticed that this child did not have a sense of security. He was very careful when he did things and he looked at other people’s faces, fearing that he would do something wrong and be disliked as a result.

During this period, she had been guiding and trying to understand him. His personality had improved a lot, but she had to take it slowly if he did not feel safe.

Mei Xuelin gave Ling Sheng a week off, but she did not let her be idle. She sent a few scripts to Ling Sheng so she could choose.

When Huo Ci returned home, it was already ten o’clock in the evening. He did not see Ling Sheng, and the old couple was not asleep either. “Father, Mother, why aren’t you asleep?”

“We’re waiting for Sheng Sheng.” Su Xiyin was a little tired, but she had to wait for her granddaughter to come back before she could relax.

“Where did she go?” Huo Ci frowned and said, “It’s all your fault for spoiling her. Do you think this is appropriate? Why isn’t she home this late? Why is she making her elders wait for her?”

“Go out and take a look. She’s learning how to ride a bicycle at the foot of the mountain. Our old arms and legs can’t help her. She’s been down for two hours. She said she’s reading a script. The female lead is riding a bicycle.” Su Xiyin urged him to go down to find her.

“Okay!” Huo Ci answered before he turned around to look for her.
