He Zhilan was just expressing her emotions casually, not expecting the taciturn He Teng to respond to her.
They drove back, intending to pick up Little Tuanyuan from He Da’s place and return to the military compound. He Teng had taken leave today but needed to return to the base in the afternoon.
However, when they arrived ho, there was no one there.
He Da and Chen Ning were still at the hospital with Lin Deng, and at this ti, no one knew where the father had taken Little Tuanyuan.
"This early in the morning, where could Dad have taken Little Tuanyuan alone? Second Brother isn’t at the supermarket. We didn’t see them nearby when we returned." He Zhilan muttered to He Teng, then added, "A few days ago, when Little Tuanyuan was ho, he was sneakily drawing sothing. As soon as I entered the room, he imdiately hid his drawing, acting very secretive. No matter how I asked, I couldn’t get anything out of him."
He Zhilan sighed to herself. Having a high-IQ son, sotis even as a mother, she couldn’t match her son.
To handle Little Tuanyuan, apart from matching intelligence, often it requires intervention from his father, He Teng. Little Tuanyuan only listens to He Teng.
So, sotis, intellect isn’t as effective as a firm hand.
"Maybe Little Tuanyuan convinced Dad to take him out to play again." He Teng thought. Most likely, their son felt bored at ho and persuaded his father to take him to the library. Little Tuanyuan spent most weekends at the capital city library.
He Zhilan acknowledged without giving it much thought and went to the kitchen to see what to prepare for lunch.
And at this mont, where was the Little Tuanyuan whom his mother was talking about?
In a special prison on the outskirts of the capital, Little Tuanyuan walked with his hands clasped behind his back like a little adult. He carried a small backpack on his shoulders, which looked stuffed as if it was filled with many things.
"Grandpa, do you think Grandpa will be happy to see suddenly visit him?" Little Tuanyuan looked up worriedly at He Da beside him. "I’ve never t my grandparents!"
"Of course, they will be happy. Your grandparents only have your mother as a daughter. They actually cherish your mother very much. But, alas, when your mother was little, she got lost, and later, because your grandmother lost a child, and when you were very young, due to your grandfather’s family, you were taken from the hospital, nearly got lost, so your mother holds a grudge against your grandfather’s family." He Da finally brought Little Tuanyuan here to see Gu Hengyuan because he couldn’t resist Little Tuanyuan’s insistence. He was also aware that He Teng and He Zhilan had left early to visit Lin Deng in the hospital, guessing they wouldn’t be back until midday, daring to bring Little Tuanyuan out.
However, He Da was still uneasy and advised, "When we get back, don’t let your mom know, otherwise, she’ll be upset."
He Da didn’t see Little Tuanyuan as a typical child, so there were many things He Da didn’t hide from him. For example, when Little Tuanyuan asked about events from his early childhood, He Da would candidly tell him.
"Mom is really pitiful, but Grandpa and Grandma are pitiful too." Little Tuanyuan furrowed his little face and sighed with a mimicry of an adult. "Grandpa, I was so little back then, I don’t rember anything, but it was who nearly got lost, yet I don’t bla Grandpa and Grandma."
He Da couldn’t help but smile, "Yes, of course, you don’t bla them, but your mother loves you so much, that’s why she’s angry. You are still young, and you don’t understand. When you grow up, marry, and have a family, then you will understand your mother’s pain when you were lost."
"I’m not marrying! Those girls are always crying and playing in mud, like silly kids!" Little Tuanyuan pouted, his face full of pride.
However, his small hand in his pants pocket was secretly forming a fist. He was a bit excited to et his grandfather soon, but even more so, he was nervous.
He had heard many people talk about his grandfather’s family, so he really wanted to et his own grandfather.
