Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!

Chapter 401: Chapter 401

Being idle is certainly no big deal.

Su Lu chuckled twice, "Being idle is pretty nice, too, let your brother support you."

But soon, Su Lu felt as if she had discovered a treasure, Jing Qiao’s temper was just too good, both patient and gentle.

He was an ace at entertaining kids!

Most little boys are quite rambunctious, and Zhao Xiaole was no exception, acting every day as if he had an everlasting motor installed, unable to stop for a moment, now doing this, now that, one minute wanting to play with this, the next minute wanting to play with that.

Moreover, he was a little chatterbox, his little mouth babbling on as if it couldn’t stop.

Sometimes Su Lu had such a headache, she wasn’t always patient enough to entertain him.

But Jing Qiao was, and Su Lu watched in amazement as Jing Qiao kept building blocks with Zhao Xiaole because Xiaole said they weren’t put together right, that it wasn’t what he wanted, and then he couldn’t explain what he did want.

Jing Qiao knocked it down and rebuilt it again and again, over and over, until finally creating what Zhao Xiaole had in mind.

When Shen Xun came over, Su Lu whispered to him, "I will never let Jing Qiao go, even if Song Boyuan is a tough guy, I’m not scared!"

She clenched her fist, speaking very resolutely, then humbly said to Shen Xun, "Brother, have Brother Yi Da and the others keep a close eye on Jing Qiao, don’t let her be snatched away."

"Just to keep someone around to entertain the child? You really are..." Shen Xun was very helpless.

Su Lu was even more helpless, "You know how energetic Xiaole is, I’m already out of battery, and he’s still got 80% power left, I’m helpless too. You’ve looked after Xiaole yourself..."

Shen Xun remembered how Su Lu had to go out of town to attend the opening of an art exhibition because she was working, and it wasn’t convenient to bring Zhao Xiaole along, so Shen Xun took care of Xiaole for a few days, along with Su Zhe, looking after Zhao Xiaole for five days.

Both of them felt that even during the busiest times at the start and end of the month, nothing was as exhausting as taking care of Zhao Xiaole.

Thinking back on it now, Shen Xun still wanted to hold his forehead and sigh. noveldrama

So he genuinely believed that every full-time mom was a warrior worth admiring, and those moms who worked during the day and looked after their kids at night were truly heroic.

After those days, Shen Xun bought Ms. Zhao quite a few gifts, and also accompanied her to take a lovely set of solo wedding photos, which delighted Ms. Zhao no end.

Hearing Su Lu say this at the moment, Shen Xun could of course understand.

Actually, when Su Lu saw that only Shen Xun had come, she initially wanted to ask why Su Zhe hadn’t, but for some reason, she suddenly felt divinely inspired and didn’t ask anything else.

"Lele, come to uncle for a hug." Shen Xun smiled and squatted down, reaching out his arms to Zhao Xiaole.

Zhao Xiaole’s eyes lit up, his voice bright as he called out, "Big Uncle!"

Then he bounced over and threw himself at him.

"I missed you so much!" Zhao Xiaole said, hugging Shen Xun’s neck and planting several kisses on his face.

"Well done." Shen Xun kissed his forehead in return.

Zhao Xiaole looked at him somewhat puzzled and asked, "Where did Second Uncle go?"

Shen Xun was taken aback and smiled, "Why ask me where he went?"

"Because you’re always together," said Zhao Xiaole innocently.

Su Lu listened to these words on the side and couldn’t help but feel that she was incredibly slow-witted. Even Zhao Xiaole could see that these two were always together, yet she had never given it much thought.

"I don’t know, oh. What, if I come alone, you don’t love me anymore?" Shen Xun asked with a smile.

Zhao Xiaole furrowed his little brows and stared earnestly at Shen Xun before speaking in a righteous tone, "What are you talking about? Even if you don’t come, I still love you!"

Shen Xun hugged Zhao Xiaole with one arm and covered his chest with the other, "Ah, my heart is melting."

Zhao Xiaole chuckled.

Jing Qiao quietly tidied up on the side, silently picking up the Lego that she had been playing with Zhao Xiaole, neatly stacking them into the box and then putting the box back in its original place on the shelf.

Zhao Xiaole was still very responsible and introduced Jing Qiao to Shen Xun, "Uncle, this is my aunt, you should meet."

Hearing his earnest childlike demeanor was irresistibly amusing.

But Shen Xun managed to hold back his laughter and cooperated, "Alright, alright."

Then he turned to Jing Qiao, nodded, and said politely, "Hello, Miss Jing."

Jing Qiao smiled lightly, "Mr. Shen, I’ve heard much about you."

Jing Qiao had indeed heard Shen Xun’s name often, as Shen Xun was considered somewhat of an outlier in the circles of Beijing’s elite. The Shen Family was already a significant household, and as the direct heir, his inheritance of the Shen legacy was most legitimate and just.

Furthermore, Zhao Ying’s businesses were substantial, and since he was entrusted to Zhao Ying’s care, her decision not to remarry after the divorce meant that him inheriting Zhao Ying’s side of the business was also most legitimate and just.

Such a person, to go off and join a rescue team... to serve the people?

To see him in the circles of the wealthy elite, he was an anomaly, completely different from the prodigal scions, which is why even though he wasn’t in "Jianghu", "Jianghu" still abounded with his legends, and she had often heard about him.

After Jing Qiao was brought back by Jing Ce, she was groomed towards becoming a distinguished lady, so that later on she could marry into a well-matched family, securing more stable business relationships and interests through marriage.

With the background of the Shen Family, of course, that would have been sufficient.

Truthfully speaking, if Shen Xun had not gone to the search and rescue team to serve the people, but instead stayed in Beijing to properly inherit the family business, perhaps she might have been sent off by Jing Ce to marry Shen Xun.

In that case, perhaps the subsequent events with Song Boyuan might not have happened.

In that case, perhaps she wouldn’t have been so miserable.

After all, judging by Shen Xun’s attitude towards Su Lu, he seemed to be a very gentle person.

And Shen Xun, as a person from that circle in Beijing, who wasn’t astute? He was, of course, aware that he had once nearly had a connection with Jing Qiao.

Even during the year he returned to Beijing to visit family, Shen Jiming had sought him out to discuss this matter, which at that time was about a young lady from the Jing Family, which likely referred to Jing Qiao.

However, Shen Xun harbored lasting resentment towards Shen Jiming and had a strong aversion, which extended to the Shen Family, naturally preventing any possibility of agreement. After the family visit was over, he left Beijing and returned to his work.

Subsequently, the Jing Family joined forces with the powerful Song Family. Later on, Shen Xun heard about Jing Qiao going mad and being admitted to the Psychiatric Hospital.

At that time, Shen Xun was somewhat astonished, but he was trapped in the shadow of losing his sister and couldn’t extricate himself, so naturally, he had no time to concern himself with other matters.

Until this moment, when he saw Jing Qiao sitting there quiet and serene, slender and melancholic.

Shen Xun was a bit late in realizing that this young woman before him was the one who had almost become his wife.

Back then, it was merely a moment’s difference. And then both of them had entirely different lives.

So sometimes in life, it’s all about moment’s difference.
