Chapter 418 - Can I Be A Good Mother?
In the hotel, Qiao Yu was not sleeping. He was working in the beginning. He had been in the hospital during the daytime, and working at nighttime these days, but he did pay attention to Xia Ning’s recent scandals.
Therefore, sometimes he would browse the Internet. And he happened to see someone exposing him and Xia Ning. Just when he finished reading and was ready to call Chen Hong, an unfamiliar number called in.
At this time, and the IP address from S City.
Qiao Yu stared at the incoming number for a moment and picked up.
“Hello!” A cold female voice sounded suddenly. “It’s me!”
Qiao Yu stood up and walked to the window. He gazed into the darkness outside the window and answered in a low voice, “Hello.”
In the hospital, Xia Ning was sitting on the side of the bed. She did not talk for a few moments. It was weird for her to call him like this.
After all, she refused to communicate with him first. She even changed her phone number.
She had done this twice, but every time, it seemed that it was she who was breaking the rule.
“Could you tell your mother to not let Enoch out for a couple of days?”
“Why?” Qiao Yu’s calm voice came from the other side of the call.
Xia Ning frowned slightly and explained, “I saw online that someone was exposing that you are married with a son...”
“Enoch is my son and that’s a fact!”
Xia Ning’s words were blocked completely. She was shocked for a second and then realized, yeah, Enoch is his son and there is no need to hide it, unlike her...
“Someone threw mud at me saying I was your mistress. I am afraid they will focus on Enoch. Qiao Yu, whether or not you want to publicize Enoch’s identity has nothing to do with me. But I don’t want this to cause more trouble for him,” Xia Ning said in a low voice.
In the quiet room, her voice was low.
But the voice from the other side was also clear. “Why do you say so? Are you afraid that others would know his parents are divorced?”
Xia Ning’s eyes tightened. Was she afraid of this? No way, but...
“So you do know how big of an impact the divorce has on him.”
Hearing this, Xia Ning sneered. “Qiao Yu, are you being sarcastic to me? Do you think I’m the worst person in the world because I didn’t agree to remarry you?”
“Xia Ning, you know that’s not what I meant,” Qiao Yu said in a low voice. “What I wanted to say is, if you care about him so much, why don’t you let him know? You hate me so much, but you are willing to call me for him in the middle of the night. You are just afraid he would get hurt. So why don’t you tell him you love him? He’s just a kid and he needs his mother’s love. He needs an ‘I miss you’ from his mother.”
Xia Ning’s hand that was holding the phone tightened suddenly, her pupils full of shock. She opened her mouth but could not say anything to refute.
She thought that if a kid was born to own everything and had no need to worry about the future, it was happiness. No, that was the biggest happiness, so even if there was something else missing, it did not matter.
But she might have been wrong. All children needed love from their parents and the ‘I love you’s from them.
When she was young, she seemed to be the same.
Even though her childhood was full of pain and difficulty, being with her mum made her happy and satisfied.
She looked up into the dark room and asked suddenly, “Qiao Yu, do you think I can be a good mother?”
