Huo Xuan jolted in alarm.
He couldn’t see the expression on his mother’s face as she drove, but he heard her almost screaming and angry voice. He knew he had blurted out something wrong.
“Mummy, it’s not like that…”
Just as they reached a red light at the crossroads, Gu Qingcheng braked and turned to look at Huo Xuan.
“Baby, tell Mummy, did your dad go abroad and live in a hotel with a woman?
Have the two of them been staying in the same room?”
Huo Xuan was startled, his entirely white body involuntarily curling up.
His mother looked at him with a gentle and warm smile. If she had asked him something in such a gentle manner normally, he would have happily answered her.
But at this Mummy, despite her gentle smile, he couldn’t feel any warmth, only a terrifying aura enveloping him.
For the first time, he found his mother’s smile terrifying.
He was so scared that he didn’t dare to make eye contact with her.
Seeing Huo Xuan curled up into a ball, his hands hugging his small head, looking frightened, Gu Qingcheng was deeply shaken.
“Baby, Mommy isn’t angry with you,” she said softly, comforting Huo Xuan.
“Don’t be afraid of Mommy, Mommy loves you very much.”
Huo Xuan listened to his mother’s sweet and gentle voice and cautiously looked up at her.
He saw her gentle expression, different from the one she had shown just a while ago. This time, the tender indulgence in her eyes and brows brought him a sense of warm security and happiness.
“Mommy…”
“Mommy is here,” Gu Qingcheng responded gently. “Be good, baby. Mommy was wrong. I shouldn’t have scared you just now.”
As Huo Xuan was about to speak, a car horn sounded from behind.
Gu Qingcheng glanced at the traffic light, which had turned green. She was the first car in line, and if she didn’t move, the cars behind would be stuck at the intersection.
She started driving and said to Huo Xuan, “The light’s green, Mommy will drive first. Wait for Mommy, okay?”
After she drove away from the crossroads, she parked the car near the curb.
The next moment, she opened the driver’s door, got out, opened the rear door, and sat in the back seat, pulling Huo Xuan into her embrace.
The moment she hugged Huo Xuan, she clearly felt his little body tense up, obviously in a state of panic.
“Baby, be good,” she kissed Huo Xuan’s exquisitely beautiful little face and cooed softly, “Mommy was wrong. Please forgive Mommy.”
Huo Xuan looked up, his large black eyes staring into his mother’s eyes filled with apology. All his fear of his mother vanished.
“Mommy is not wrong; it’s Baby who made a mistake,” he said, his voice sweet and apologetic.
“Baby didn’t do anything wrong,” Gu Qingcheng comforted Huo Xuan.
“Mommy’s behavior just now was indeed a bit scary…’
Huo Xuan shook his head at his mother, interrupting her, “Mommy, please don’t apologize to Baby anymore. That would really scare Baby.”
Gu Qingcheng hastily swallowed the words she was about to say, looking at Huo Xuan lovingly. “Okay, Mommy won’t apologize anymore. I won’t scare you.”
Huo Xuan, feeling relieved with his mother’s agreement, had complex emotions in his dark eyes.
Then, looking bravely at his mother, he said, “Mommy, can you not be angry with Daddy? It’s Baby’s fault. I shouldn’t have spoken carelessly. I beg Mommy to forgive Baby and not be angry with Daddy. Please don’t argue or fight with
Daddy.”
Gu Qingcheng was speechless.
“Baby knows he was wrong,” Huo Xuan said, tugging at his mother’s skirt. “Mommy, please don’t hit Daddy or be angry with him because of what Baby said wrong. Can we be a happy and harmonious family?”
Thinking of Huo Xuan mentioning Huo Sicheng going abroad and staying in a hotel room with Miss Li, clearly implying they slept together, Gu Qingcheng felt a heart-wrenching pain, making it difficult for her to breathe.
The last time Huo Sicheng went to see Miss Li, she had a long cold war with him. Their relationship had just improved, and Huo Xuan’s words felt like a bucket of ice water poured over her head, extinguishing all her passion for Huo Sicheng.
Not only did he go abroad to meet Miss Li, but he also let Huo Xuan see him together with her. He was only concerned about his affectionate relationship with Miss Li, without considering her feelings at all.
She is Huo Xuan’s mother, and Huo Sicheng, as her husband and Huo Xuan’s father, had an affair with Miss Li in front of their son. This was a slap in her face, humiliating her in front of their son.
Recalling those days, she felt her son Huo Xuan either pitied or sympathized with her or was at a loss.
She was furious with Huo Sicheng’s shamelessness!
But she wasn’t angry with Huo Xuan for letting slip today, because Huo Xuan didn’t want her and Huo Sicheng to argue. He wished for a happy and harmonious family.
She knew Huo Xuan loved her very much, and he must have been suffering every day in his heart due to Huo Sicheng’s betrayal.
“Mommy, I’m sorry.” Seeing Gu Qingcheng’s pale face and not speaking, Huo Xuan’s eyes reddened, and he gripped her skirt tightly. “Baby has always felt guilty. I also wanted to tell Mommy about this. But I was afraid Mommy would hit Daddy. I was afraid you would argue and our family would be unhappy.”
He choked up, “Also, when Daddy took me abroad, I had a lot of blood drawn, and I was very uncomfortable. Maybe I was mistaken. Daddy didn’t stay with that woman. Maybe they were just talking about business. Please don’t be angry, Mommy.”
After so long, he finally told his mother the secret he had kept in his heart. He felt relieved but was more afraid of his parents arguing.
He knew his mother’s temper; she was terrifying when angry, and even Daddy couldn’t handle her fury.
Mommy would probably have another cold war with Daddy like last time, and she wouldn’t return to Wanmei Villa. He would lose his mother again.
He didn’t want to lose his mother. He loved her very much. He knew he was wrong and sincerely hoped his mother would forgive his concealment.
Thinking of Huo Sicheng’s betrayal, Gu Qingcheng felt unbearable pain in her heart. Seeing Huo Xuan about to cry out of guilt, her heart tightened as she hugged him.
Huo Xuan, feeling his mother’s arms tightening around him, could sense her sadness. He felt even guiltier for hiding this from his mother for so long.
His vision blurred, and tears finally escaped, rolling down his little face. But these crystal-clear tears helped him see his mother’s face more clearly.
In his eyes, his mother’s face was full of love and gentleness, her eyes filled with tenderness and concern for him.
“Mommy…” he asked through tears, “This time, I’ve told Daddy many times. I believe Daddy knows his mistake and he won’t dare do anything to hurt Mommy again.. Mommy, please don’t be angry with Daddy, okay?”
