I don't know how long I slept. When I woke up, my palm had already been bandaged by someone. In front of me sat a refined man. It was my uncle.
"Uncle, what are you doing here?" I looked at him suspiciously. He smiled and handed me an apple he had been peeling halfway through. "Teacher Wang said you got into trouble at kindergarten, so I came to pick you up, but I found out your mom had already taken you away."
"Don't be afraid; the bad person has already been driven away by me."
"When you return to school, you won't see her again."
My eyes lit up. "What about Lu Mengmeng?"
He reached out and ruffled my hair. "She ran away as soon as she saw me."
"Don't worry; she won't appear around you anymore."
I couldn't help but ask, "Where did she go?"
He shrugged. "I don't know; maybe she went back to her hometown."
"Anyway, she won't come back to disturb you."
I nodded and fell silent. For some reason, I always felt that my uncle wasn't telling the truth. How could someone as troublesome as Lu Mengmeng be easily driven away by him? The fact that she had been able to stay close to Chen Donglai for so long proved that she wasn't someone who would give up easily.
"Ling'er, today's incident is a secret between the two of us; don't tell anyone, okay?"
I suddenly spoke up. My uncle was taken aback. "Why?"
I tilted my head, mimicking his tone and said seriously, "If Aunt Shiyu and Dad find out, they will worry and get angry."
"What if something happens to them on their way back?"
"So it's best we keep it a secret and not tell them."
My uncle looked at me intently, a strange emotion flashing in his eyes.
"Okay, this is our secret; no one can say anything."
As he spoke, he extended his hand, making a gesture for a pinky swear.
I reached out my little hand and hooked it with his.
"Pinky swear, if you break it, you'll hang for a hundred years!"
My uncle's eyes curved into a smile. "Ling'er, you're really good."
I blinked and asked, "What if I'm not good?"
He straightened his expression, looking serious. "Children who don't listen are not liked by anyone."
"Ling'er is a well-behaved child, right?"
I nodded obediently.
He reached out to pat my head. "Very good. You mustn't tell anyone about what happened today."
"This is our secret, okay?"
I nodded vigorously. "Mm!"
Only then was he satisfied and turned to leave.
The moment he closed the door, the obedient look on my face vanished without a trace.
"Idiot."
I muttered under my breath.
Who would so easily believe someone else's words?
Still the same question, would he really be so kind-hearted?
I didn't believe it.
Chen Donglai and Wang Shiyu rushed back as soon as they learned about the incident.
I recounted everything that had happened after they left in detail.
Wang Shiyu hugged me tightly, kissing me repeatedly. "Our Shengsheng is so smart."
"Do you remember what Mom said before?"
I nodded and proudly lifted my chin. "I remember; when something happens, you must tell your parents. Anything you can't tell your parents is just to trick children."
Wang Shiyu kissed me again. "So good."
Chen Donglai stood nearby with his arms crossed, his expression dark.
Combining what I said with the evidence they found, they quickly understood everything.
Chen Donglai's face turned extremely grim as he paced back and forth in the living room.
"Is Lu Mengmeng out of her mind?"
"Why does she keep bothering me?"
"Is she a freak?"
"What exactly does she find attractive about me?"
"If she wants to find a dad for her child, she should just go ahead and do it. Why does she have to cling to me?"
"Did I provoke her in any way?"
Seeing him in such distress brought me a bit of joy.
Actually, when I was saying these things to him, I added a little of my own thoughts.
I told him that Lu Mengmeng not only stole my life but also wanted to have a second child with him.
Chen Donglai was already furious, and after hearing what I said, he became even more enraged.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Lu Mengmeng is really sick."
"I've seen shameless women before, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as her."
"Does she think that if I look at her a few more times, it means I like her?"
"The first time I met her, she stole my pen and I scolded her; she acted all wronged."
"The second time I saw her was at the hotel; she was wearing a uniform trying to seduce me, and I almost reported her."
"I clearly dislike her; why does she always think I like her?"
"Can’t she understand what sarcasm means?"
"Or is she some kind of masochist?"
I blinked and asked, "Dad, have you met her?"
Chen Donglai paused for a moment and replied, "Yeah, why?"
I pressed on, "When you met her, did she say anything strange to you?"
Chen Donglai thought for a moment and said, "Actually, not much. She just said that I often look at her secretly and that I’m investigating her behind her back because her boss told her."
"She even said that I'm interested in her and want her to be my mistress."
"I almost threw up; I scolded her and left."
I continued to ask, "Has she done anything weird?"
Chen Donglai's mouth twitched: "She stole my stuff; does that count?"
I widened my eyes: "What did she steal from you?"
Chen Donglai's face turned red. "Ahem, it's just... personal clothing."
"I thought she had some special preference," I said, suddenly enlightened.
So Lu Mengmeng had this kind of quirk. No wonder she looked so crazy every time she saw Chen Donglai's photos.
I put on a serious expression and said, "Dad, you might not know, but Lu Mengmeng not only steals your things but also collects many of your personal items."
"Did you know? She has a cabinet full of your stuff."
"Every day, she makes up a love story about you and her, saying how you two met."
"She says you fell in love with her at first sight, but due to family pressure, you can't be with her."
"She claims you often sneak away to see her because you like her too much and can't control yourself."
"And she also..."
"Stop talking!" Chen Donglai interrupted me with a pale face. "I feel like throwing up."
I blinked innocently at him.
He took a deep breath, suppressing his nausea, and asked, "Shengsheng, you've suffered."
"What do you want as compensation? Dad will give it to you."
I shook my head, patted his shoulder with sympathy.
"Forget it. You've already endured so much; I won't ask for compensation."
Chen Donglai: "..."
He could no longer hold back and cried out loud.
"Woo woo woo, Shengsheng, Dad is suffering inside."
I reached out my small hand to hug him and patted his back.
"Don't cry, Dad. Aunt Shiyu will stand up for you."
Chen Donglai cried even louder.
