Chapter 11 Grateful

"Uncle, is that true? You won't leave Ruirui behind?" Qin Rui blinked innocently and looked straight at An Hengyu in front of him. This man had only met him once, and he had never thought that he would treat him so well.

Since he came back from the amusement park, Qin Rui had thought about it. It would be great if this man was his father, and he could feel that An Hengyu was really good to him. An Hengyu gave him his wallet at the amusement park and asked him to buy ice cream.

An Hengyu glanced at Qin Rui. Although he was a child, he was quite sensible and obedient. An Hengyu felt that he had a special fate with this child though he could not figure it out. He had never liked children so much before.

"Okay, I promise you that you can call me whenever you need me in the future. No matter what I am doing, I will help you immediately, okay?" An Hengyu coaxed Qin Rui, somehow feeling that he was close to this child.

When Qin Rui heard An Hengyu's words, he smiled. In the future, he would not only have a mother who loved him, but also a handsome and gentle uncle.

Seeing that Ruirui was all smiles, An Hengyu was relieved. But did Ruirui's mother do? It had been two days, but why didn't she come to pick up the child? Why wasn't she worried to leave him alone?

"Ruirui, where did your mother go? Why hasn't she come to pick you up? Is she so busy at work?" An Hengyu felt extremely upset thinking about this. How could a mother do that? Could she ignore her child because she was busy with work? In that case, why does she give birth to a child in the first place? An Hengyu felt a little indignant.

Qin Rui's mood darkened at his words. Over the years, Qin Rui had understood that it was not easy for his mother to support him alone. She had to work every day and take care of him. Moreover, living expenses were so hight that his mother would not even buy herself new clothes.

"Well. She had no choice but to work hard to earn money and support me. Sometimes, I feel sorry for my mother, but all I can do now is study hard and make my mother feel happy." Qin Rui' was a little sad, and his tone was not very good. He had not seen his mother for two days, and he did not know what her mother was doing.

An Hengyu could not help but frown. He just remembered that Ruirui said that he just had his mom . It was conceivable that their life was not easy. In this era, it was not easy to raise a child, but fortunately, Ruirui was a good boy.

"Alright, alright, I'll send you home now, or will you go back with me?" An Hengyu thought about it.

An Hengyu was afraid that Ruirui's mother would not be back at this time. If he sent Ruirui home, he had to be alone. It was better to bring Ruirui back to his house. He would ask Qin Ruo to cook for him. He could send him back after dinner.

Hearing An Hengyu's words, Ruirui actually wanted to go back with him. However, his mother had already not returned for two days. He did not know where his mother had gone. And if his mother did not see him when she came back, she would definitely be very anxious. Hesitated for a while, Ruirui said, "Uncle, take me to my home. I'm going home to wait for mom. She'll be anxious if she doesn't see me when she comes back."

When An Hengyu heard Qin Rui's paused. This child was really sensible. He thought that Ruirui would definitely go back with him. But the child's words surprised him greatly. "If I send you back home, you'll be alone. If you go back with me, you can have a meal with me and I'll send you home after dinner."

The main reason was that An Hengyu was worried that this child would be alone at home. Qin Ruo was at home alone either, so they could accompany each other, and then Qin Ruo won't continue to make a scene and annoy him a lot.

Qin Rui shook his head resolutely, "Uncle, it's okay. I'll be fine. I'm afraid that my mom will be worried if she doesn't see me. Thank you, uncle." As Qin Rui spoke, he looked at An Hengyu and shook his head.

This child and Qin Ruo were much alike. They never changed their decisions and their attitude was so determined. An Hengyu smiled and did not say anything else. According to the address Qin Rui gave him, he sent him to his downstairs. "You live in a place like this?" Looking at the surroundings, An Hengyu's face was filled with disgust.

Qin Ruo smiled, "Yes. mom and I have been living here for a while. We are not very rich. My mom's not well paid, and I have to go to school. So we've been living here." Qin Rui didn't find it unacceptable. As long as he lived with his mother, it would be ok wherever he lived.

An Hengyu had known their living environment. How could Ruirui have a good education in such a living environment?

"Ruirui, why don't I wait here for your mother to come back? And I'll talk with your mother about your future." An Hengyu really liked Qin Rui. Otherwise, he won't be here to waste so much time talking to him, and he won't have gone to his school to pick him up. He wanted to help Qin Rui.

Qin Rui glanced upstairs and was silent for a moment, "Uncle, I don't know when mom will be back yet. Don't wait any longer. You're quite busy too. Go do your thing. When mom comes back, how about I ask her to call you?" As Qin Rui spoke, he looked at An Hengyu, who was in front of him with an expressionless face.

An Hengyu didn't know what had happened to this child, but since he didn't have his father's love, he must be different from other children. Otherwise, he wouldn't have considered it so thoroughly. "Alright. Then remember to ask your mother to call me when she comes back. Be good at home by yourself and call me whenever you need anything."

"Thank you, uncle." Qin Rui was very sensible. Greeted An Hengyu and see him leave his sight., Ruirui couldn't help but sigh. He didn't know where his mother had gone. She hadn't been home for two days and hadn't picked up the phone for two days. He felt very worried. But he knew mom won't leave him behind.

An Hengyu had been thinking about Qin Rui when coming back. He didn't know what was going on with Qin Rui's mother and why she didn't pick up the child. He could tell from Qin Rui's expression that his family conditions were not very good these days. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been living in such an environment. He was quite worried about this child.

The conversation with Qin Rui at the amusement park made An Hengyu feel especially at ease. He felt that he could be the real him in front of the child. He didn't really like children very much before, but he felt that Qin Rui had a special affinity with him and he liked the child very much. If Qin Rui's mother was kind, he would consider being Qin Rui's godfather.

When he returned home, he opened the door and saw that the house was empty. He didn't know what Qin Ruo was doing. He quickly walked over. He remembered what happened yesterday and he didn't want Qin Ruo to do anything stupid. When he opened the door and saw Qin Ruo lying on the bed, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Have you eaten something?"

Seeing the food beside the bed, An Hengyu was angry. Qin Ruo didn't eat a single mouthful of rice even though they had been put there for quite a while. Was she really going to starve herself? Or was she just so reluctant to be with him?

"I told you I don't want to eat, An Hengyu. What's the point? Can you just say what you want? Can you not keep me tied up here? I have to work, I must go home. Qin Ruo felt like she was about to break down. It seemed like all she talked to An Hengyu was useless.

She couldn't understand what An Hengyu was thinking. How could he treat her like this? Everything that happened back then had already passed, not to mention that she did nothing wrong. It was An Hengyu who had found fault with her without any reason.

After hearing Qin Ruo's words, An Hengyu was even more annoyed,"You want to go home? I think you're going back to the bastard! You just stay here. If you don't obey me, I'll make you obey." An Hengyu didn't have any expression on his face as he spoke but looked straight at Qin Ruo.

Qin Ruo was in despair. It wasn't the first time she met An Hengyu and she also knew what kind of person An Hengyu was. He would definitely do what he said. However, she hadn't been back for two days, and she didn't know how Ruirui was doing at home alone. She was worried about Ruirui.

Moreover, she had been by Ruirui's side ever since she was born. She had never been away for that long. This time, she was afraid that Ruirui would worry about her for she hadn't come home for two days. Damn it, she had left her phone at the company and Ruirui couldn't get through to her.

"An Hengyu, what do you think we're doing? All these years have passed, and you're living a good life. I have my own life too. There's no interaction between us anymore. Why did you break into my world? What the hell are you thinking about?" Holding back her tears, Qin Ruo looked at An Hengyu expressionlessly.
