Chapter 57: A Beautiful Dream
“I would prefer to stay with my mom like this.” Jeffrey opened his big, dumb eyes and spoke noisily.
Sansa Ran was very touched, hugged Jeffrey for a long time did not let go, at this time Sansa Ran also began to miss Justin, only Jeffrey and Justin in, Sansa Ran is like an armor, nothing is afraid.
Unknowingly, it was late into the night.
Jeffrey’s upper and lower eyelids were fighting constantly and slowly began to drift off to sleep. Sansa Ran smiled dotingly and slowly picked Jeffrey up and brought him back to his room.
Just as Sansa Ran was about to leave, Jeffrey grabbed a corner of her shirt and, despite being sleepy as hell, he still managed to pull himself together and said to Sansa Ran, “Mommy, will you put me to sleep?”
Sansa Ran knew that Jeffrey could fall asleep without her coaxing, but she would try her best to fulfill Jeffrey’s requests, except for Dean Lan’s matter, which was a bit difficult for her.
Perhaps it’s because recently, Sansa Ran has been spending too little time with Jeffrey, so Jeffrey has to feel a little insecure, and that’s why he wants to have a father around to protect him when Sansa Ran is not around.
Sansa Ran does not know Jeffrey’s mind, but Dean Lan … when the two of them are together, it always reminds Sansa Ran of a bad past, which is why Sansa Ran has been slow to accept him.
When you think about it, Sansa Ran is a little distressed and slowly lies beside Jeffrey, singing a lullaby to Jeffrey with a gentle voice.
Jeffrey smiled and looked at Sansa Ran, a few days without such and Sansa Ran together, so Jeffrey is very miss her warm embrace, some greedy breathing this only belong to the taste of mother.
A lullaby was soon sung, and Jeffrey’s eyes were still wide open.
Sansa Ran was surprised and said, “Why aren’t you sleeping yet? Come on, be a good boy and close your eyes and go to sleep.”
“Then mommy can you tell me another story?”
“You little slick!” Sansa Ran said with a smile as she scratched Jeffrey’s nose.
Despite what Sansa Ran said, he picked up the storybook specially prepared for Jeffrey from Jeffrey’s bed and read it in a colorful manner.
The story Sansa Ran read today was about a little fox who bought mittens.
“Winter is the cold season, the little fox’s paws step on the thick snow every day, the little fox’s mother is afraid that his paws are frozen, so she teaches the little fox to buy gloves in the human stores …”
“Is the little fox also without a father?” Jeffrey suddenly opened his eyes and said the question in his heart.
Jeffrey’s question made Sansa Ran froze, holding the book’s hand trembled a little, at this time she did not know how to answer Jeffrey this question.
“Why open your eyes again, do not want to hear the story?” Sansa Ran didn’t answer Jeffrey’s question and looked at Jeffrey with a scornful look.
Jeffrey saw this and spat out his tongue mischievously and closed his eyes in a hurry to continue listening to his mother’s story about the little fox.
Sansa Ran saw Jeffrey did not continue to dwell on the matter of the little fox’s father, she secretly sighed with relief and continued to tell the following story in a wordy voice.
“… Finally, the little fox got his mittens and returned happily to his mother.”
Sansa Ran lowered his head to see that Jeffrey had entered the dreamland at some point, and Sansa Ran closed the storybook and looked at Jeffrey, who was sleeping peacefully, with doting eyes.
Sansa Ran looked at Jeffrey for a long time with a happy smile on her lips as she breathed steadily, not knowing whether she was dreaming or not.
Jeffrey fell asleep to his mother’s melodious voice, and in a trance, he entered a beautiful dream.
In the dream there was him, there was Justin, there was a beautiful mother, look carefully, as if there was a great figure besides them.
Jeffrey hurriedly ran to the man’s side with small steps.
Only to see, the man opened a large embrace, a will Jeffrey picked up, he held Jeffrey waist tightly, in place turned up in a circle.
Jeffrey experienced the feeling of flying, somehow, although in the air, but Jeffrey is not so afraid, the hands seem to be some endless power, gave Jeffrey unlimited courage.
This is the power of Dad!
Jeffrey suddenly reacted, the scene in front of him was also suddenly clear, the owner of these large hands, it is his daydreaming dad.
With his dad by his side, Jeffrey felt no fear no matter what he did.
The scene shifted, the four came together in the amusement park, Jeffrey in the tall Ferris wheel overlooking the whole city, he realized how small people are, how big the world is.
Also in the fierce bumper car race, shouting with joy. He was in a car with his dad and Justin was in a car with his mom, and the two cars were chasing each other and bumping into each other, putting Jeffrey in a happy mood.
He also laughed loudly on top of the carousel, Jeffrey rode the carousel, spinning round and round, how he wished time could be forever in this moment, let their family of four, forever so happy and joyful.
Sansa Ran was not aware of the beautiful dream Jeffrey was having and waited for Jeffrey to fall asleep before gently tucking him in, turning off the bedside lamp and preparing to leave Jeffrey’s room.
“Daddy … mommy …”
Sansa Ran had just turned around to leave when Jeffrey’s ravings came into Sansa Ran’s ears. For Jeffrey to suddenly shout out mommy and daddy, it made Sansa Ran’s heart very uncomfortable.
Is he even dreaming of having a father?
Sansa Ran felt some pain and tears unconsciously flowed down her face.
If Jeffrey really wanted a father that badly, then she could try to accept Dean Lan for Jeffrey’s happiness.
Sansa Ran left Jeffrey’s bedroom and went back to her room. While she was in a daze, her cell phone suddenly flashed, bringing Sansa Ran back to reality.
It turns out that Sansa Ran had put her phone on silent while she was chatting with Jeffrey, so she hadn’t heard the phone ring.
Sansa Ran picked up the phone and saw that there were several missed alerts, and opened the phone to find that it was Lynn Mo calling.
Sansa Ran immediately called back, and the call was answered quickly.
“I’m sorry, I was putting the kids to bed and my phone was on silent.” Sansa Ran immediately said with apologies.
Lynn Mo obviously did not take this matter to heart and said in a relaxed tone, “I’m calling you to tell you the good news … Dan Lu is willing to cooperate with the company.”
