The next morning, little Watermelon gets up from the bed, looks at the empty room, hurriedly gets out of bed, opens the door, looks at Mo Anyu standing in the middle of the living room, and says aggrievedly, “Where is Papa?”

“He’s on a business trip, and we’ll get along with each other in a long time.” Mo Anyu answers the email with his mobile phone and says without looking up.

Little Watermelon tightens his mouth, tries his best to hold back his tears but in vain, and aggrievedly cries all of a sudden.

Mo Anyu remains unmoved. He coldly glances at little Watermelon and continues to play with his mobile phone.

As for him, it’s a miracle that he can tolerate the existence of little Watermelon. He can’t do more for little Watermelon.

Little Watermelon has cried for ten minutes. And he is sensitive to realize something, sobbing and walking to the bathroom.

Standing on the stool, little Watermelon puts the toothbrush in his mouth with difficulty. He doesn’t use toothpaste and press the switch. And he casually brushes his teeth.

Mo Anyu leans against the door of the bathroom and ignores the dilemma of the two-year-old boy. He says lightly, “There is porridge at the table. After washing your face, you can eat it by yourself. I will send you to school later.”

Little Watermelon keeps his head down without turning back.

Mo Anyu turns around and leaves.

Squatting at the edge of the toilet, Dandan walks over and extends its tongue to please little Watermelon.

The elevator door opens.

Mo Anyu takes little Watermelon’s hands and goes in. Soon, Song Shilin who wears a suit, also comes in.

Mo Anyu’s eyes narrow. “Mr. Song, what a coincidence.”

Song Shi Lin glances at Mo Anyu, nods, and looking at little Watermelon without saying anything.

Little Watermelon doesn’t like Mo Anyu, but he promised Papa last night, and Papa also went out to work. He has no choice but to stay with him.

Mo Anyu says, “Why Mr. Song chooses to live here?”

“Close to the company.” Song Shilin says faintly. Mo Anyu is a member of Mo’s family. He gives respect to Mo Anyu.

Mo Anyu nods thoughtfully, but the uneasiness and jealousy in his heart don’t dissipate and even become more intense.

When the elevator door opens, Song Shilin takes a look at little Watermelon with his head down and no words from the beginning to the end, and finally leaves without asking anything.

Mo Anyu holds little Watermelon in his arms and says gently, “Baby, you like that uncle?”

Little Watermelon nods and says, “I like him.”

Mo Anyu’s expression becomes gentler, and his tone is softer, “That uncle is not a good man. Please don’t like him, my baby.”

Little Watermelon is stunned, “Uncle Song is a good man!”

“But your father doesn’t like him. If you like Uncle Song, your father won’t like you.” Mo Anyu touches little Watermelon’s hair, cajoling him.

Little Watermelon says, “Oh”, looking a little absent-minded.

Mo Anyu doesn’t mind that. After taking little Watermelon to the class, he says he will pick him up tonight and leave.

Little Watermelon is in a low mood.

Little fatty comes over and pokes him on the shoulder, pretending that he doesn’t care. “Bo Yanting, where’s your father?”

“Daddy went to work.” Little Watermelon comes to his seat, bending over the desk in a daze.

Little fatty is disappointed but plays happily soon.

Song Shilin gazes at Mo Anyu from afar who sends his child to school. His eyes are profound, and he says, “What’s wrong with Mo Anyu?”

Secretary Chu has worked with him for more than ten years. He is very clear about the meaning of the boss’s words. He quickly says, “I’ll ask someone to find out the truth later.”

“OK.” Song Shilin takes out the document, “Drive.”

The driver drives carefully while Secretary Chu, sitting in the front passenger seat, peeps at his boss through the rearview mirror from time to time, wondering whether he is angry or not.

Song Shilin is silent all the way. But when getting off the car, he suddenly says, “Ask someone to follow the child, and keep watch on Mo’s house.”

Secretary Chu promises, but he doesn’t understand why Song Shilin cares so much about Bo Yu’s son. And he chooses to be mute because of his working experience for many years.
