Halfway through dinner, Lu Beichen received a phone call, and his face changed, "Okay, I'll be right over!"
"What's wrong?" Ji Niandong asked anxiously, everyone looked at Lu Beichen.
Lu Beichen barely let out a breath, glanced at Ji Niandong, and replied, "Xiyao's mother is back, in the hospital right now! I need to go over there!"
"I'll go with you!" Ji Niandong saw his solemn expression and instinctively stood up.
"No need!" He rejected directly, "Didn't I say, her parents are back, we don't need to go over there anymore, it's just... the matter is somewhat because of me, I should go at least once."
"I..."
"Listen, if you follow me there, what about Nian Nian tonight?" Lu Beichen emphasized.
Lu Qingyuan also spoke up, "Although we can help you look after Nian Nian, children still need their mom."
Ji Niandong glanced at her pitifully looking son and silently sat back down.
Only then did Lu Beichen leave.
