"If you really don't believe it, we can secretly ask dad if he is okay when we see him later."
Child Gao Hexing hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Manshu picked some snacks for him, and then after Ren Hua had selected the items, they went to check out together.
When Xingxing saw Ren Hua again, she couldn't help but look at her belly.
Ren Hua noticed it and was not nervous at all.
After arriving home, she still held Xingxing's hand: "Do you want to touch it?"
Little Xingxing was both curious and restrained. He didn't know whether he should touch it or not.
"Can I?" Xingxing was eager to try.
"The thing in your belly is your brother or sister. You are the brother, so of course you can touch it." Ren Hua nodded encouragingly towards him.
Little Xingxing tried to put her hand on Ren Hua's belly: "Why didn't he move?"
Ren Hua smiled softly: "Because he is too young."
"When he gets a little older, he will move."
Little Star seemed to understand but not quite.
Director Gao came back soon and bought two fish, one steamed and one braised, and some of Xingxing's favorite dishes.
"Teacher Gao, let me help you wash the vegetables."
Manshu took the initiative to follow Gao Zhixiang to the kitchen.
Where does Gao Zhixiang need her help?
Although Manshu may have helped Grandma Yan do a lot of work in the countryside before, she definitely doesn't need to do it herself now.
"Don't come, just play with the stars." Gao Zhixiang really didn't dare to let Manshu do anything.
"Teacher Ren is talking to the stars." Manshu winked at Gao Zhixiang.
Ren Hua is a teacher after all. If she wants to patiently guide a child, she will never make the child feel uncomfortable.
When Gao Zhixiang saw Manshu's eyes, he suddenly said, "Okay, come and help me."
After saying that, he looked outside again: "Xingxing, can you help daddy stay with auntie?"
When Xingxing heard her father say this, she immediately agreed: "Okay."
Like a little adult entrusted with important responsibilities, he accompanied Ren Hua to talk in the living room.
When Manshu was helping Gao Zhixiang, he also told him the questions Xingxing asked before.
"Stars may feel a little lost and insecure."
"Teacher Gao, you still need to communicate with him properly."
Gao Zhixiang thoughtfully said: "I understand, Xingxing is a sensitive child, I will not let him get hurt."
Xingxing's mother remarried and had children, which had already caused harm to Xingxing.
Gao Zhixiang's cooking skills are really good. It took just over an hour to prepare a feast.
Manshu finished lunch at Gao's house and played with Little Star for a while before leaving.
As for how Teacher Gao communicated with Xiao Xingxing later, Manshu didn't know.
She went home in the afternoon, did her homework for a while, and then began to lie down.
I had been back for three days and had no time to spare. In the evening, Qin Gege called me out again and said that my high school classmates had formed a game and asked everyone to go to dinner and sing karaoke together.
Manshu went out to have a meal. She wasn't interested in singing, but she was half dragged there.
"Do you still remember Yang Lili?"
While singing on KTV, someone suddenly mentioned something.
When Manshu heard this name, he almost didn't react.
"What's wrong with Yang Lili?" Qin Gege remembered that Yang Lili had helped Yan Siyu harm Man Shu, so she asked.
"I heard that she has disappeared. She has disappeared."
Someone looked at Manshu and stopped talking.
Manshu realized later: "You don't think I did something to her, do you?"
