TGLC Chapter 35.2

Aunt Zhang was quite amused to see the child’s shocked expression.

She said, “Auntie will make you something delicious in a little while.”

“Okay, I’m waiting for you to make something delicious.”

Aunt Zhang glanced at the time. It was still early, but it seemed like it was about time to start making soup.

So she started making the soup.

Xie Qingyu woke up once during the process. When she saw that there was another person in the house, she asked about the situation, but didn’t say anything before going back to rest.

Little Zhuzhu continued playing with her toys.

After playing for a while, she went to check if her mother’s fever had returned.

When it was time for dinner, Aunt Zhang had prepared a lot of delicious food.

Zhuzhu ran to the room to call her mother for dinner.

Her mother was already awake and was currently on the phone in her room.

She didn’t know who she was talking to on the phone, but her expression was somewhat impatient, and her face was very, very cold.

“That’s her own business. It has nothing to do with me.”

“Why should I help her?”

“Hilarious.”

Seeing her mother’s unfriendly expression, Little Zhuzhu immediately asked, “Mom, who are you talking to on the phone?”

“Okay, I’m hanging up now.”

Hearing her daughter’s voice, Xie Qingyu hung up the phone without saying another word.

Not wanting to tell her child about this troublesome matter, Xie Qingyu tossed her phone aside, smiled, and sniffed the air, saying, “It smells so good! Has Aunt Zhang finished cooking?”

Zhuzhu nodded her little head, looking a little curious: “Yes, Mommy. Who called you?”

The little girl tilted her head, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Xie Qingyu said indifferently, “Nothing.”

She didn’t want to talk to her child about these upsetting things.

It was her mother calling again, begging her to let Duan Zihui help her sister, who didn’t want a divorce.

Not only could she not bring herself to ask, but even if she could, she didn’t want to help her.

For Xie Huiyin, remaining in that kind of marriage was truly hell.

She tossed aside her phone, got out of bed, and went straight out.

Little Zhuzhu quickly followed behind. The mother and daughter went to eat together.

However, Xie Qingyu seemed to be in an even worse mood and ate very little for dinner.

Seeing her mother eat so little, Zhuzhu, who had already eaten a lot, tilted her head and asked, “Mommy, why are you eating so little?”

Xie Qingyu casually picked at the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks, her voice slightly hoarse, a little different from usual: “Mom isn’t very hungry. If you’re hungry, you can eat more.”

Zhuzhu pouted and said, “But you can’t not eat.”

Xie Qingyu said, “It’s okay. Mommy is sick right now, so my stomach can’t digest that much food. I’ll be able to eat more in a few days.”

The little one was successfully fooled and didn’t ask any more questions.

Xie Qingyu still felt unwell after finishing her meal, so she went back to her room to lie down.

Zhuzhu immediately chased after her and said, “Mom, you haven’t taken your medicine yet. Take your medicine before you go to sleep.”

Xie Qingyu was in a bad mood and seemed rather silent. Hearing Zhuzhu’s words, she moved her lips, but ultimately said nothing.

She obediently took her medicine.

However, the expression on her face when taking the medicine was still very painful.

Seeing her mother being so well-behaved and cooperative, Zhuzhu couldn’t help but wonder, “Mommy, why are you so well-behaved?”

Xie Qingyu smiled palely, without answering the child’s question. After putting down the water glass, she lay back down and told Little Zhuzhu before closing her eyes.

“Mom is very, very tired right now, so I don’t have time to spend with you. Stay with Aunt Zhang and ask her if you need anything.”

Little Zhuzhu went to get a corner of the blanket, imitating how her mother usually tucks her in, and tucked her in as well. She nodded obediently and said, “Mommy, I know. You go to sleep now, and call us if you need anything!”

“Okay.”
