Chapter 290 - Mommy, Don’t Cry (1/2)
She tried her best to control the raging anger in her heart and comfort herself a million times. He was drunk. He was a drunkard. Why was she angry with a drunkard?
Xiaoqi hid in Ling Sheng’s embrace and cried until he was out of breath. After shouting “Grandpa” in a hoarse voice, he looked up with red eyes and asked in the same voice, “Mommy, where is Grandpa going?”
Ling Sheng looked at the chaotic living room, her every cell trembling uncontrollably from anger. She gritted her teeth. “He can go wherever he wants!”
“But Grandpa is drunk.” Xiaoqi sniffled as tears welled up in his eyes. “Will he be alright?”
In the end, Ling Sheng was still worried. When she ran downstairs, she saw a red Ferrari jump out of the garage and disappear at a high speed.
Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably as her heart ached terribly. Her chest felt as though it was about to explode as she hugged Xiaoqi and sat on the steps outside the estate’s entrance.
“Mommy, don’t cry.” Xiaoqi reached out to wipe her tears. His tender and hoarse voice could make one’s heart ache. “Mommy, don’t cry. Grandpa is drunk.”
“Xiaoqi, let’s go.” Ling Sheng was so angry that she wanted to cry. She did not want to cry in front of her son, though. It was embarrassing, but she could not help it. The repeated hints in her heart were useless. Her voice broke as she said, “We’ll leave tomorrow at daybreak.”
She had thought that after such a long time, her scumbag of a father had developed feelings for them.
However, that had all been in her imagination. Drunkards indeed said the truth after drinking.
He had finally said the truth, which was that he still wanted to kick them out. She would leave tomorrow and disappear from his sight along with Xiaoqi. She would not be an eyesore or a source of ire for him.
“What about Grandpa?” Xiaoqi hugged her neck. Now that he had seen his mother cry sadly, his heart ached even more. “Mommy, don’t cry.”
“If we leave, he might be very happy!” Ling Sheng sniffled and hugged her son.
