Chapter 21 Dear

When Xin Wan was in the second grade, her parents came back from the south.

Xin Wan's father, Xin Jingting, went south to start a business, and it was very successful in the past few years. However, when Xin Wan was in the first grade, he encountered Waterloo, and the business took a sharp turn for the worse. After struggling for a year without any improvement, he took his wife back to his hometown.

Children are naturally very happy about their parents' return. Xin Wan and Xin Ti were excited for a while at first, but within a few days, they discovered that their parents were not as happy as they were.

From the few words in the chat between the adults, Xin Wan probably knew that there was a problem with her father's business, but she was still young and couldn't figure out what the problem was.

She only saw her father moaning and sighing, and heard her mother holding his father's hand and saying: Jingting, I believe you will make a comeback, you still have me, and I will be by your side and support you forever.

When Wen Yinwei said this, it was dusk. She was standing on the balcony of her home. The setting sun cast a golden light on her face and hair, as if casting a halo on her. She smiled in the shadow of the backlight. The side face is extremely beautiful.

And Xin Jingting looked at her for a long time, until Wen Yinwei took the initiative to lean into his arms.

At that time, Xiao Xin Wan didn't understand the content of Xin Jingting's long gaze. She only saw him frowning in a direction that his mother couldn't see after embracing his mother.

She thought, Dad is very unhappy, right?
After returning to her room, she said to Cindy: Mom and Dad are not in a good mood recently, we have to be good.

Cindy nodded obediently.

The two sisters shared a room with bunk beds, and talked for a long time at night about how to make parents happy.

Perhaps because of her preoccupation, Xin Wan didn't sleep well that night. She woke up thirsty in the middle of the night. She carefully got down from the upper bunk and went out to drink water. When the door opened, she heard someone talking, The voice is very low.

Hearing it again, it seems to be Dad?
Out of concern, she really wanted to know about her father's troubles in detail, so she went down the stairs softly and eavesdropped in a hidden place.

It turned out that Dad was talking on the phone.

She heard her father say in a very small voice, "Honey, give me some more time, I really... can't bear it, my parents won't agree."

Seven or eight-year-old children have a vague understanding of many things in the adult world, but their senses are extremely keen.

Xiao Xinwan didn't know who her father was calling, and she didn't understand what he meant, but she still felt a strong discomfort.

This discomfort stems from the resistance to the word "dear".

In her opinion, only the closest person can be called "dear". Who is Dad calling dear?

Mom is sleeping in the room, and Cindy is also sleeping, and she is squatting in this place. The three of them are the dearest people of Dad. Who else can call Dad dear?

At this time, the voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became much louder, as if there was still crying, Xin Wan could hear it clearly, it was a woman's voice...

As soon as Xin Jingting heard the crying, he immediately became humble, "Okay, okay, I'll mention it, I'll mention it, don't cry, aunt, crying too much will hurt your body."

Xin Wan went upstairs quietly and returned to her room, feeling inexplicably sour.

She climbed onto her sister's bed and hugged little Cindy, her eyes were bright in the dark, and she was not sleepy.
