"Dad..." At this moment, the little guy in his arms suddenly murmured.

Immediately afterwards, the sleeping child suddenly woke up and opened his panic eyes to look at her.

The child's appearance made Mo Xue's expression suddenly become nervous.

"What's wrong? Are you having a nightmare?" she asked with a worried look on her face, reaching out to take the little guy into her arms.

"Mom, why haven't dad been back yet..." The little guy turned his head and looked at the location at the head of the bed, and then asked her a little sadly.

Hearing this, the expression on Mo Xue's face changed.

"What's wrong? Did you dream of dad?"

The little guy nodded and then asked her with concern.

"Why haven't dad been back yet?"

Looking at the little guy's caress expression, Mo Xue didn't know how to explain Shang Yanxi's affairs to him for a moment.

After he sent her and Nian Yuan back, he left the place that night, and since then... he disappeared.

No one knew where he was, and even the housekeeper didn't know his whereabouts.

She was also a little surprised, but she didn't expect that he really did what he said this time and disappeared from the world of her and her children.

After a while, Mo Xue came back to her senses and asked the little guy curiously.

"Why did you suddenly ask this?"

She had been hearing Nian Yuan say that Shang Yanxi rarely goes home, so why did he care so much about whether he can come back today?

After hearing her question, the little guy looked at the empty bedside table with some disappointment, and then said.

"No dad's gift."

During the New Year last year, although he did not see his father, there was a gift from his father on the bedside table.

There were also two years ago, and there were some before, although he couldn't remember the things that were too young.

After hearing the little guy's words, Mo Xue was stunned. She subconsciously turned her head to look at the direction of the bedside table, but couldn't help but sigh, and the expression on her face suddenly became serious.

"Nianyuan, I mean, what if, if you will never see your father again, then what should you do?" She looked at the little guy and asked with a complicated expression.

She had just spoken, and an expression of sadness appeared on the little guy's round face.

Tears fell down suddenly...

"Mom, do dad want me anymore?" The little guy looked at Mo Xue and asked sadly.

Looking at the little guy's sad appearance, Mo Xue's heart aches.

She suddenly regretted...

Now she is too selfish and cruel, and she just wants to reunite with her son, but she ignores the little guy's thoughts.

Even though she didn't want to admit it, she could feel that in the heart of the child, Shang Yanxi's position was more important than anyone else, including her.

Thinking of it, tears couldn't help but slid down Mo Xue's eyes. She couldn't help but reach out to hug the little guy tightly, and then hurriedly comforted her.

"Dad loves you so much, why don't you want you!"

"When will dad be back?" the little guy leaned in her arms and asked with some concern.

Listening to the little guy's question, Mo Xue was speechless for a moment, so she could only sniff, lower her head and kiss the little guy's fleshy face, and then continued.

"It's almost..." She reached out and wiped away the tears from the little guy's face, revealing a gentle smile.
