Chapter 596
“Okay.” An Ruo placed the phone next to Kangkang’s ear, and the little guy’s expression froze when he heard his dad’s voice calling him.
He looked left and right but couldn’t see where Daddy was.
An Ruo gently pressed down on his head and said softly, “Kangkang, Daddy isn’t here. He is talking to you on the phone.”
Hearing An Ruo’s words, Tang Yuchen realized what Kangkang was doing.
“Kangkang, Daddy isn’t at home. I am calling you from a very far place. You can only hear Daddy’s voice but can’t see Daddy…”
It wasn’t clear whether he understood or not, but at least he stopped looking around and focused intently on listening to the voice on the phone.
Tang Yuchen told him a lot, saying he was working and couldn’t come home for the time being, and asked him to eat well every day, promising to feed him when he got back.
Kangkang couldn’t respond to him, and perhaps he didn’t understand what was being said.
Yet his heart miraculously calmed down, and he no longer wondered where Daddy had gone.
Tang Yuchen said a lot, asking if he understood, to make a sound if he did. However, Kangkang turned his head away, no longer listening to him speak. His gaze stuck on the food, he reached out for his little spoon.
An Ruo thought the person on the other end had hung up, so she put the phone to her ear and heard Tang Yuchen’s voice, “Son, did you understand what Daddy said? If you understood, acknowledge Daddy with a sound.”
“He is eating now, maybe he understood your words.”
Tang Yuchen laughed, “Baby, I’m so happy today.”
An Ruowei was slightly taken aback; she was happy too.
Their joy all came from Kangkang; they were Kangkang’s parents. Besides them, no one else could feel that immense joy.
At that moment, there was a kind of tacit understanding between them, as well as a feeling of heart-to-heart connection.
An Ruo silently said nothing, and Tang Yuchen tenderly spoke again, “Baby, I miss you and our son very much.”
Actually, she missed him a little too, didn’t she?
Just a moment ago, she was thinking about him.
Right, she also resented him for always letting her taste the loneliness that comes with separation.
“I’m going to hang up now. Let’s talk another time,” An Ruo said indifferently.
The man thought she didn’t want to talk to him and gloomily agreed, letting her hang up first. An Ruo ended the call, and it was only when he heard the dial tone that he put away his phone.
Standing at the bow of the ship, staring at the pitch-black night sky, his heart was also filled with melancholy.
He really wanted to return home, to be with his beloved woman and their adorable son every day.
This transport took ten days. In those ten days, Tang Yuchen had called An Ruo every day.
Actually, there wasn’t much for them to talk about, so they mostly discussed Kangkang.
Tang Yuchen was so grateful for having this son; otherwise, there would be absolutely no common topics left between him and An Ruo.
Today, An Ruo received another call from him, saying he would be able to return tonight.
