Free Web NovelChapter 1640: Chapter 1620:
"An Hao, don’t cry, don’t cry. Have you been working hard lately?" Luo Qianqian was instantly flooded with mixed emotions. Did this thing called bloodline resonance really exist?
How come Mom sensed that something had happened to them, and even An Hao, who only shared half their blood, also felt something was wrong?
"Sis, I dreamed your hands were covered in blood. You were smiling at me, but your smile was really scary. An Hao was so scared, but Sis ignored me, you didn’t look at me at all, your hands were full of blood..." An Hao clutched at Luo Qianqian’s collar, crying so hard he was almost gasping.
"Sis was wrong... Be good, An Hao. Sis would never ignore you. Do you want to go see big tigers and giant pandas?" Luo Qianqian hurriedly coaxed him.
"Really? Will Sis come see me often? You won’t abandon me, right?" An Hao gazed at Luo Qianqian with a face full of grievance.
Luo Qianqian pressed her lips together and nodded. "Let’s go, we’ll go have fun and eat lots of yummy food, okay?"
"Okay." came the aggrieved little voice.
By the time Luo Qianqian brought him out, An Hao’s tears had mostly dried up; only the tip of his nose was still a bit red.
"Bro, I’ll leave it to you then... Um, Mom, my brother still has something to do. How about I have someone else go play with you?" Seeing Luo Shufan subtly stretching and clearly indicating that his body wasn’t as good as it looked, Luo Qianqian immediately changed what she’d been about to say. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
"What’s he got to do? If he’s busy, work comes first. We’re just going out to play, that’s not urgent." An Zilan hurried to say. After all, the kids were all grown now, so they should have more important things to attend to. Fortunately, there was still the little one who could keep them company.
Luo Qianqian put An Hao down and quickly started making arrangements. She couldn’t ignore her brother’s situation—he was still in recovery, he couldn’t be treated like a normal person. If they weren’t careful and something happened...
"Brother, you’ve got... that smell on you." An Hao leaned close to Luo Shufan and blurted out quickly. Luo Shufan’s expression instantly turned strange as he looked at him, but he didn’t speak, just stared fixedly at the little boy in front of him, feeling a strange sense of unfamiliarity.
"I dreamed Brother fell from somewhere really high, then Brother’s body shattered and you were on your last breath." Sitting across from him, An Hao spoke softly, not attracting the attention of An Zilan or anyone else.
"Then Sis used her life to extend Brother’s. You in her, her in you." Meeting Luo Shufan’s gaze, An Hao was very calm.
Luo Shufan couldn’t help drawing in a sharp breath. How were these words something a little kid could say?
"You... dreamed that?" Luo Shufan could feel his heart thudding wildly, his face written full of disbelief. This—there was no way Luo Qianqian would tell a kid like this, and he wouldn’t be stupid enough to tell An Hao either.
But looking at An Hao’s appearance, he clearly knew something. Yet ever since he got injured, he hadn’t seen An Hao at all!
"Yeah. And after that, I started having nightmares, dreaming Sis was slicing meat and cooking soup... Is Sis’s soup even drinkable?..." An Hao stared calmly ahead, his tone flat. It was obvious he hadn’t told anyone this before.
"!!!" Luo Shufan was completely stunned.
This—how was this possible?
And also... An Hao, are you sure your focus isn’t a bit off? Is this really about whether Luo Qianqian’s soup is drinkable?
After a long while, he sighed and took An Hao’s small hand. "Don’t tell anyone, including Mom and Dad, okay?"
"I’m not stupid." An Hao rolled his eyes. "Don’t treat me like a little kid. I know everything, okay? Just like how Brother can’t go to crowded places right now, am I right?"
Luo Shufan: "..."
One little sister who wouldn’t be managed was already headache enough, and now there was a little brother who was also somehow off. It left him feeling constantly at a loss.
"Uh... so what exactly are you trying to say?" Luo Shufan looked utterly confused.
Calmly watching him, An Hao said, "Brother, you two have to live well." He sighed, slid down from the sofa, then headed straight for Luo Qianqian and threw himself into her arms. "Sis, you’re not coming with us to play?" His big eyes blinked pitifully. "I really want to play with Sis."
Luo Shufan: "..." Was this kid doing a face-change act? Was this a normal emotional shift for a child? Just now he was putting on the mature act, and now he was playing cute again? Why couldn’t he figure this kid out at all? He actually felt like he’d been played by a child?
"Sis has something to do..." Luo Qianqian froze for a moment, then quickly bent down to pick him up. "How about you go play first? If Sis has time, I’ll come find you, okay?"
"Then Sis has to come, okay? If Sis isn’t there, An Hao will be lonely." His little voice carried grievance, his face full of longing.
Luo Qianqian’s heart went soft. She nodded. "As soon as Sis has time, I’ll come right over, okay? You have to play well and have lots of fun, okay?"
"Okay." After softly agreeing, An Hao obediently slid down from her arms, walked over to Lin Yu and An Zilan, and grabbed one hand each. "Mom, Dad, let’s go play first. Sis will come when she has time, Brother’s busy and can’t come."
Luo Shufan: "..." So he was being abandoned again?
He hadn’t said anything, and this little brat had just decided for him? Why did he feel so annoyed?
So annoyed, but he still had to keep smiling.
"Bro, then you go work hard..." Luo Qianqian also gave An Hao a rather strange look.
When the two of them were talking just now, she had somehow heard nothing at all. Only when they finished did sound come back. It was like some force had encircled the two of them while they spoke, keeping her from probing.
She hadn’t thought much of it at the time, but now it felt a little weird.
"Mm..." Where was he even going to ’work’? Shangqi Club? Fine, fine, at least he could rest in a private room.
As long as he didn’t have to be in a crowded, stuffy place that would put too much strain on his body, it would be okay.
An Hao gave Luo Qianqian a sweet smile. "Sis, I really want to play with Sis. You go be busy, and when you’re done, come keep An Hao company as soon as you can."
Watching this scene, Qin Nuan was also quite stunned. Wasn’t An Hao acting a little too well-behaved for his age?
But then she thought of her own kid, who cried like the sky was falling and the earth was cracking, and she just felt...
Brats, hurry up and grow up, will you? If you don’t, your mom’s not going to survive this...
Raising kids was the most exhausting job in the world. You could slack off at work, but you couldn’t slack off with kids. The slightest bit of carelessness could cause something to happen to them.
Letting out a soft sigh, all Qin Nuan could hope for was that her own child would grow up quickly, as she looked at An Hao with envy.
And in An Hao’s eyes, there was only Luo Qianqian...
An Zilan also gave Luo Qianqian a doting smile. "Qhianqhian, if you’ve got things to do, then hurry and go. If An Hao can’t wait for you, he won’t have fun anyway. Go on, get busy."
And just like that, Luo Qianqian was hustled out of the house. She could only slowly flag down a cab and leave on her own.
After all, she couldn’t just let An Hao’s little heart down.
