Chapter 1099: Chapter 1100: Destruction is Easy, Repair is Hard
An Jing saw that Tuoba Yao was also up early, so she laughed, “You’re up early too, we haven’t even started cooking yet.”
Tuoba Yao replied calmly and politely, “It just so happened I had nothing to do at ho, the Prince and Princess sent soone to call for Wild Goose Jade, so here I am.”
Just then, Gong Juechen ran past Tuoba Yao and turned back laughing, “What do you an ‘just so happened’? You were obviously rushing to see Zhuzhu. People say ‘a day apart feels like three autumns.’ Didn’t you and Zhuzhu not see each other yesterday? That’s like missing three autumns, how could you not rush over!”
Tuoba Yao truly felt that Gong Juechen’s mouth deserved a punishnt.
ng Zhuqing’s face turned slightly red, but luckily the mask hid it, though she still sneakily glanced at Tuoba Yao, clearly pleased he had co so early.
An Jing simply felt speechless. She had seen clueless people, but never soone this clueless.
Because Gong Juechen had turned back to speak to Tuoba Yao, he had slowed down, and then, Gong Juese caught him.
Once she caught him, she started hitting him, shouting, “For calling my son fat! For calling my son fat!”
Gong Juechen didn’t fight back while being hit, only making one request, “Just not the face.”
Gong Juese actually didn’t hit his face but aid her hits at other parts of his body. It looked severe, but wasn’t actually harmful. How could she really hurt her beloved brother? It was just like now, hitting a bit, scolding a bit, creating a ruckus, and then it was as if nothing had happened.
Since Gong Juese wasn’t seriously hitting Gong Juechen, no one intervened.
An Jing just conversed with Tuoba Yao and others, then planned to go to the kitchen with Xiao Changyi to start cooking.
But the four little ones, seeing them leave, imdiately stopped playing and hurried to their side, grabbing their hands, wanting to go to the kitchen with them.
An Jing’s heart tightened at this, and she bent down to speak gently to the four kids, “Be good, okay? Daddy and Mommy won’t leave you. We are just going to cook. Look, your aunts and uncles are still here. Why don’t you stay and play with your aunts and uncles, is that okay?”
The children constantly being this clingy was also an issue. Although An Jing had a heavy heart, she hoped the kids would feel more secure around her and her husband.
They had been back from Nan Shen for almost three months now, and the kids still felt insecure. Honestly, both she and her husband felt terrible about it.
Destroying trust is easy, but rebuilding it is truly difficult, very difficult.
Xiao Changyi stood by, his handso face expressionless, watching the four children with a cold, seemingly calm gaze, but his heart was not calm. In fact, he even felt a bit pained.
After glancing at Tuoba Yao ng Zhuqing, the four little ones then asked An Jing in their childish voices, “Daddy and Mommy really won’t leave us?”
An Jing imdiately laughed and shook her head, her voice sowhat choked, “Never. We will never leave you.”
It seed the children believed An Jing’s words, as they then looked up at Xiao Changyi.
Xiao Changyi then said, “Never.”
The children hesitated, and after a long mont, they finally let go of their daddy and mommy’s hands, “Then make sure to cook quickly.”
Seeing the children react this way, An Jing knew that they were fine not following her and her husband, now willing to let her and her husband out of their sight.
