The Love Book

The two of them frolicked in the bathroom for a while longer before returning to the bedroom.

Under the lights, on the big bed, Phoebe Barnes rubbed Qiao Ranran’s small head, which had completely dried out, and said gently, “Go to sleep.”

The girl got under the covers, revealing only a round head, and looked up at her, “cherry, Aunt Mo says we’ll see each other soon, is that true? She’s coming here?”

The woman lay on her side and sniffed, gently pinching her cheeks, “You miss her?”

“Well … mmmmm.” She blinked her pure starry eyes, her long slender eyelashes fluttered, “And I miss grandparents, godfather and daddy.”

Phoebe Barnes was slightly stunned, then pouted her red lips and said in a resigned manner, “All of them, how come there is no mommy?”

She immediately grinned and squinted ingratiatingly, “cherry is always first!”

“…”

Phoebe Barnes rolled her eyes and gave a soft hum, “Spooky!”

No wonder the man always used to say she was better at flattering than anyone else, but it turned out to be true.

“Be a good girl and go to sleep.” Patting her head, Phoebe Barnes casually turned off the headlight, leaving only a wall lamp.

After a long day of tossing and turning, she was still two or three years old after all, full of energy one moment and drifting off to sleep a few minutes later.

She held the baby’s face with a smile on her lips, her gaze gentle as water, but not at all sleepy.

The window blew into the breeze cool, clean air, the woman’s slender figure lying on its side, gaze fixed on the child’s face, the look gradually trance up, some complex deep.

Three years.

After leaving the hospital that year, the child was gone, the home was gone, he was gone, all the emotions collapsed, she lost the courage to face anyone, went straight to John Lu to help her leave, she just wanted to escape that place for a while, go anywhere.

She was supposed to get on a plane to Sweden, but she didn’t expect her body to hold up and fainted halfway through the flight, so she landed in France and was taken to a local hospital by Nancy MO.

When she was most desperate, she did not expect God to play a joke with her … child was still alive.

Is it ironic?

Fate really will play tricks on people, when she wanted to completely pull out and leave, surprisingly still can not get rid of that man’s influence.

So she stayed in the local, afraid he found, but also anonymously hidden in a remote town, later, from the Internet she learned that he did not look for her, she forgot at the time was relieved, or lost through the roof.

Compared to the “dead” Miley Gu, her departure may not have caused any ripples in his heart.

In the following years, her life was focused on her children, but the “Phoenix Tour” was a big hit, and John Lu did not screw her salary, barely able to maintain their mother and daughter’s expenses here.

She even forgot that she was still an actress and that the entertainment industry was getting farther and farther away from her, as she worked odd jobs in cafes during the day.

I don’t know what came to mind, she tilted her head and stared at the baby’s features, her eyes softened.

Luckily, it still looks a little more like her now.

…Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

The day had just dawned when the phone on the table vibrated.

Phoebe Barnes, who hadn’t slept all night, got up and picked up the phone and tiptoed out of the bedroom.

“Hello.”

“Are you up?” The man’s magnetic, gentle voice came from the other side of the phone.

“I’m up, Wren’s still sleeping.”

She took the phone and walked downstairs, opening the door and gently breathing in the morning air, her chaotic and jumbled mind finally clearing up a bit.

“It must be late on your end. Why aren’t you resting?”

The man smiled softly, “I’ll sleep after this call.”

“…”

Phoebe Barnes was slightly stunned, he wasn’t waiting to call her specifically to stay up that late, was he?

Her tone lightened a few points, “Mr. Shi, is there something you want to talk to me about?”

“Well, did you see the news of his … engagement?”

“Nancy already told me.” She walked to the swing in the courtyard and sat down, gently swaying, her tone extremely light, as if she knew what he wanted to say, she also said directly: “In fact, you do not need this, whether he is engaged or married does not have anything to do with me anymore.”

“Then do you continue to plan to live there for the rest of your life? Phoebe, it’s been three years, it’s time for you to make plans for yourself.”

Phoebe Barnes looked dark and silent.

It was true, love had failed, but life had to go on, and besides, she still had Wren now.

After a long time, she slightly opened her eyes and looked sideways at the sun about to rise in the sky, a smile appeared on her charming and clean face. Not for their own sake should also think about those worried fans, find a girlfriend, otherwise the outside world always rumored that you want to come out.”

“…”

Ann Shi on the other side of the phone is also exasperated by her crying and laughing, just now still talking about her, so soon to pull on themselves.

“Who said I didn’t make plans for myself? I’ve been shooting with all my heart, haven’t I? I’ve won a lot of awards in the past three years, and I have to make sacrifices for my art.”

Phoebe Barnes scoffs coolly, “Do you think it’s funny to win those awards over and over again? Can’t you give newcomers a chance? Do you know how many female fans all over the world are foolishly holding out for you? If you can’t save those women, you can save the men of the world.”

The man suddenly laughed low and said, “Can’t you see that I’m also waiting foolishly?”

There was a sudden silence all around.

Phoebe Barnes was directly stunned, allowing the swing to sway back and forth.

A moment later, she came back to her senses extremely quickly and stood up, smiling stiffly, “Shi teacher, it’s time for Ran to wake up, I’ll go check and call you back.”

Not waiting for his response, she quickly cut the call.

The first thing you need to do is to look down at your phone, her face gradually colored with a trace of complexity and helplessness, her heart beating extremely fast.

It’s not a heartwarming feeling, she just has some guilt, she really appreciates all his help, but thanks can’t be turned into love, if the middle layer of paper is torn, she doesn’t even know if friends can still do it.

…

Three days later.

An airport in France.

Two figures dressed in black appeared in the airport hall.

From a distance, one tall and one short, cool black parent-child outfit, the same black sunglasses, revealing white skin than snow, in a crowd of white people also look very eye-catching.

The munchkin, with two pills on her head, tilted her little face to look at the woman beside her, and her round little sunglasses looked exemplary, “cherry, are you taking me to see my grandparents?”

Phoebe Barnes stroked her head and smiled gently, “Yes, mommy will take you to sit in the big bird, and you will see grandparents and Aunt Mo in a while.”
