Doubt [Part 1]
Yu Meng Meng is not someone who can hide things, but she didn’t tell Yu Hao the matter regarding their father. She and Yu Hao have been together since they were still in their Mommy’s tummy, and she knows him better than their Mommy. If she tells him about that man, he will never let her get close to that man again.
Moreover, he will get hurt.
Although he pretends to be a little adult, in the end, he is still a four-year-old kid. A kid will definitely get hurt to know that their Daddy doesn’t want them.
And all of this is that man’s fault.
Yu Meng Meng sighed. When she called Yu Hao at night, she told him about school and the new beautiful dress that Aunt Gu Fei bought her. She didn’t say anything about their father’s matter.
Yu Hao has arrived in Austria and officially started studying. The time here is six hours faster than in Austria. The time difference is amazing for Yu Meng Meng, who was still in kindergarten.
“So, the sky is still not dark on your side now?” Yu Meng Meng held her mobile phone and ran out to the only small window in the living room. She continued to say, “It’s already dark here, it is …” She looked at the clock hanging on the wall, “It’s 7:30 PM Beijing time, so is it … 1:30 PM over there?” She counted with her fingers, and one hand was not enough, so she put down the mobile phone and counted with both hands.
“Yes.” Yu Hao’s voice on the phone was a bit vague. “I’m still having lunch.”
“Why are you having lunch so late?” Yu Meng Meng was confused.
“Because the training was delayed.” Yu Hao said.
Yu Meng Meng wanted to see him, so Yu Hao asked his teacher’s assistant to help him find WIFI and made a video call to Yu Meng Meng.
In the video, Yu Hao was still the same, and he looks fine. Yu Meng Meng looked at him and tilted her head, she sighed and said, “Thin.”
Yu Hao wanted to laugh, but his eyes were sour. He turned his head and wiped his face stealthily so Yu Meng Meng wouldn’t see it. However, the two were twins. Yu Meng Meng could only chat with her brother over the phone, and couldn’t touch him. For the first time, she felt lonely. Unlike her brother, Yu Meng Meng couldn’t stop the tears that come out without warning. She cried and said: “Please, be good over there, brother. Don’t get hungry and be thin. I miss you so much …”
Yu Hao, who hadn’t been crying, saw his sister cried, and couldn’t hold his tears again. He sobbed and said, ”Yu Meng Meng, don’t cry. You look ugly if you cry. Your snot is coming out …”
Yu Meng Meng was sad and angry. She wanted to fight him, but she couldn’t, so she cried louder.
Yu Qing Xin, who went downstairs to get clothes, heard the sound of her daughter crying before entering the house. She was frightened and stunned for a while. Then she ran to her daughter. She saw her daughter holding her mobile phone and crying face to face with her son, who was also crying. She didn’t know whether to laugh or be sad.
It was a coincidence that Yu Hao could meet Teacher Cyril*. His character completely followed the original book. He was a genius. He talked earlier and learned things faster than other children. When they were two years old, Yu Qing Xin didn’t have much time to accompany them, so she enrolled them in a musical instrument class.
(*It is the name of the teacher, at first I want to use Xi Li because the Chinese word was 西里尔, but then I’m not sure whether this teacher is Chinese or foreigner. Since he took Yu Hao to Austria, I thought he might be foreigner, so I decided that I will use Cyril instead. MTL actually translated it to Cyrillic, but I just find it weird, so I will use Cyril instead.)
While Yu Meng Meng couldn’t sit still in the class, or sometimes just dazed to sleep like other children. Yu Hao was completely different. The little kid could sit still in the classroom, practicing piano for an afternoon, which might be boring for other children. He was focused and serious, he can even take care of Yu Meng Meng without running around.
One time, the brother and sister played in the lobby hotel where Yu Qing Xin worked, Yu Hao found several porcelain cups and filled them with different amount of water. That way, he made a simple and beautiful tune. Mater Cyril, who stayed in the hotel, met the little kiddo by chance and became very interested in his concentration and sensitivity to sound and rhythm, so he accepted the little kiddo as his disciple.
Yu Hao initially didn’t want to go to Austria with Cyril. But Yu Meng Meng felt that he should study from an internationally renowned master like Cyril, and go to the world’s music capital like Vienna, although she didn’t know where on earth Austria was. She didn’t know how far Austria was from their country, if she knew, she wouldn’t easily agree. Yu Qing Xin also believed that her son’s talent shouldn’t be buried, so after the family discussed it, Yu Hao finally decided to go.
Today, Gu Fei is busy with work, so Yu Meng Meng went to Yu Qing Xin’s workplace, Meng Zhi Yuan** Hotel, to play after kindergarten.
(**It is the name of the hotel, I decided not to translate it, but the literal translation would be Fate of Dreams Hotel. Here is the word 梦之缘酒店)
Nandao City is a tourist city with a well-developed hotel industry. Meng Zhi Yuan Hotel is an internationally renowned hotel, and its chain hotel in Nandao is also quite impressive. The hotel area is enormous, and in addition to ordinary guest rooms, there are even small villas and leisure cabins, as well as green garden.
Yu Meng Meng went to the green garden with her school bag on her back. There were other hotel staff’s children who would come to play, and occasionally some children brought by the guests would join them to play.
Yu Meng Meng met a few good friends here, they are going to play the eagle catch chicken game today.
A group of children was having a lot of fun in the garden. Yu Meng Meng’s legs were a little short, and she was at the end of the line. She ran until she was sweaty, and she didn’t pay attention to her feet. She stumbled and fell to the ground.
Yu Meng Meng rubbed her butt, not like the delicate her in front of Yu Hao, she rubbed her butt to sit up, then a pair of polished shoes stopped in front of her. She looked up and saw a pair of long legs. She raised her head again to see the waist, then her neck was sore before she saw the man’s face.
The men bent down and lifted her off the ground.
Yu Meng Meng saw that same face as Yu Hao again. She pursed her lips and stubbornly pulled away from his arms, then said, “Thank You.”
The little girl was wearing a bean green skirt today, paired with red small leather shoes with butterfly knots on her feet, long white socks, and two beautiful braids on her head. She has a small nose and mouth, a pair of black and round eyes. The little girl looks fluffy, and the whole person was like a particularly harmless delicate flower-this is a soft and fragile creature that a man like He Chong Yuan has never dealt with.
