Chapter 1021: Disappointment and Sadness

Ling Sheng held back a mouthful of blood. Why did he make it sound like she was an outsider? She looked at her son pitifully, her voice already going hoarse. “Xiaoqi.”

Xiaoqi’s heart softened as he turned his head to look at Huo Ci. “Grandpa, let’s go with Mommy!”

Huo Ci glared at the damn brat fiercely. Look at how shameful she was being! She was even acting pitifully in front of her son! He let out a snort but didn’t say whether he agreed or not.

The dessert shop was a very famous store in the capital. There were usually a lot of people queuing up, but during the weekends, there were even more people. The waiting area outside was full of people.

Jun Shiyan found someone and asked for a private room immediately. The family of four was invited in respectfully. He knew his son’s preferences very well, so all the desserts that he ordered were ones his son liked.

Ling Sheng also liked to eat, but she was about to enter the filming crew to shoot the movie. She had to control her appetite for good food and her figure. Her character was very thin in the early stages. Due to high-intensity training and poor diet, she could even be said to be quite scrawny. In order to reach that state, she had been adjusting her meals recently.

Jun Shiyan saw the young lady’s sparkling eyes. She appeared eager to dig in, but she was also trying her best to control herself. He smiled at her expression and cut a small slice of cake for her before placing it on a plate. “Just have one. You won’t grow fat.”

For half a month, the young lady had been controlling her diet and weight strictly. Every day, she would complain through the phone, saying that when the filming was over, she absolutely had to eat everything she’d missed.

“I’ll pass.” Ling Sheng swallowed her drool hungrily and licked her lips. Her eyes were full of cake as she admonished herself in her heart; she could not eat it. She definitely couldn’t eat it. She couldn’t waste all the hard work she had put in for so long just for a bit of food.

Xiaoqi picked up a donut with a fork and sent it to her mouth. “Mommy, have a bite.”

Upon seeing the food her dear filial son was feeding her, Ling Sheng truly couldn’t bear to reject it. She threw caution to the wind. She closed her eyes and opened her mouth to bite it. When the sweet taste spread in her mouth, she felt a little euphoric from head to toe.

Delicious.

So good.

Sob sob sob sob!

Tears welled up in her eyes. As a professional actress who had strict standards for herself, it truly was too difficult.

Has it been easy for her to maintain her weight?

Upon seeing the look of the young lady enjoying the delicious food, Jun Shiyan let out a low laugh.

Huo Ci frowned. As he ate with large mouthfuls, he was also a picture of disdain. His words were toxic. “Look at your protruding double chin. You still have the cheek to eat? He Sha wasn’t as fat as you when she was young.”

“Dad, aren’t you filming a movie in two days? Aren’t you afraid of getting fat by eating so much?!” Ling Sheng swallowed a mouthful of cake and glared at him angrily. Couldn’t he just let her eat in peace? Would he be satisfied if she starved to death? Was there such a father? Other dads were all like, Daughter. Eat more. Look at how skinny you are.

He, on the other hand, complained about her being fat and called her fat every day! Was she that fat?

“Oh, my character in the movie weighs 160 pounds. I need to gain weight.” Huo Ci provoked her very smugly. When he was done talking to her, he even called for the waiter and asked for another two matcha cakes and a cherry pie.

Ling Sheng spat out a mouthful of blood.

He’s bullying me!

What kind of father is this?!

Xiaoqi was also eating with great relish.

Jun Shiyan placed a piece of soymilk on the child’s plate and smiled as he said, “Try this. It’s a new product from their shop.”

Xiaoqi frowned and turned around to put the cake on another plate. Afraid of having his thoughts discovered, he attempted to disguise his intentions by muttering in a soft voice, “Xiaoqi doesn’t like this.”

Subsequently, no matter what Jun Shiyan gave Xiaoqi, the little fella would say that he didn’t like it and put it on another plate with a straight face.

Ling Sheng let out a low cough and sighed. She took a look at her son and then at her son’s father beside her. Her son was very sensible. This was really the first time he had treated someone like this. This person was even his biological father.

Huo Ci was very satisfied. He felt that no matter how much he ate, these desserts tasted more fragrant than usual. When he got to see scumbag Old Jun suffer, he was happier than anyone else.

After dinner, they passed by a toy shop.

Jun Shiyan picked up a premium remote-controlled car and called out to Xiaoqi. “Do you like this?”

Huo Ci picked up a toy ball, the kind that would squeak and even glow as one squeezed it. It was very childish, the kind that was meant to use to coax an even younger child or as a toy for a dog. He raised his eyebrow. “Ling Xiaoqi, do you want this?”

Then, Ling Sheng watched her son, who loved little toy cars the most, run straight toward her father and pick up the toy ball that was extremely childish, and which he was usually very disgusted about, excitedly.

“Grandpa, Xiaoqi likes this one.” Xiaoqi held the toy ball joyfully and turned his head back again to look at the small car in Jun Shiyan’s hand. His big eyes were full of reluctance as he said insincerely, “Uncle Jun, Xiaoqi doesn’t like small cars.”

Ling Sheng let out a low cough. She was about to suffer from internal injuries. Sigh! Exactly how deep was her son’s resentment for his father? He kept stabbing at his heart with a knife!

Clear disappointment flashed across Jun Shiyan’s eyes. He pointed at the large Transformer figurine in the shop and asked his son, “Then, what about this? Do you like it?”

Xiaoqi’s eyes lit up abruptly. He was about to say that he liked it when he shook his head again. His eyes were full of longing but he said firmly, “No, I don’t.”

Huo Ci took another Barbie doll and gave Jun Shiyan a challenging look before deliberately asking Xiaoqi, “What about this?”

“I like it!” Xiaoqi took the doll happily. Out of the corner of his eye, he reluctantly glanced at the Transformer by the side before quickly shifting his gaze away, as though he was afraid that his real thoughts would be discovered.

In the end, Xiaoqi was holding a Barbie doll in his left hand and a toy ball in his right. He looked as happy as a little fool.

Huo Ci paid for them.

Jun Shiyan called the shop assistant over and gave her instructions in a low voice.

Ling Sheng moved carefully to his side and comforted him in a soft voice. “Third Master, Xiaoqi is still young. I’ll discuss this with him nicely. He’ll understand.”

Xiaoqi wanted to play in a ball pit, but this was a luxury mall. It was an upscale place for rich people to spend money at. How could there be a ball pit or slide to play at? After eating the desserts, they brought him to an ordinary mall with a ball.

Ling Sheng was sitting in the front passenger seat, while Huo Ci and Xiaoqi sat behind her. The two of them were watching a video. She didn’t know what they had seen, but they laughed out loud together with great rapport.

She stole a look at the handsome man driving. She could clearly see the disappointment and sadness in his eyes, and her heart also grew a little tight.

It clearly wasn’t his fault, but she simply couldn’t explain it to others. Her parents and grandparents were so unfriendly toward him now. Even their son didn’t like him anymore. Naturally, he would be upset and heartbroken. She could understand that.
