Stealing the moonlight into my arms
Chapter 94 Apple
Xu Luo's arrival injected some new vitality into the Fu family's daily life.
Fu Runing had an excuse not to go back to Xiao Jingting, so she took Duoduo to stay at her own home at night.
As Qingming Festival approaches, it has been raining continuously.
As usual, Fu Runing went to accompany her father after work. Fu Zhangnan had been in poor health recently. She was very weak after chemotherapy and suddenly had a fever for two days in the hospital. The doctor talked to her again and said that the treatment was not ideal.
Fu Runing stood outside the ward, looking at the rain on the window, her fingertips were cold.
She took two deep breaths and tried to adjust her emotions so that she looked normal.
Can't let dad worry about anything.
Fu Runing took a picture of her face with her cell phone and only walked back into the ward when she saw nothing abnormal.
Fu Zhangnan and Xu Luo are speaking.
The little girl had just started attending a new kindergarten and was talking to Fu Zhangnan about what happened at school.
Fu Runing was quietly peeling an apple with a fruit knife. Her technique was not very good, so even if she peeled off more flesh, she had to make sure not to cut the skin in the process.
Apple, peace, I always feel that it has a bad meaning if it is cut into pieces.
Xiao Jingting peeled the apples well, and the thickness of the skin was even around the apple.
When Fu Zhangnan saw this, he teased her deliberately: "Ningning, you've cut the apple into only half."
Fu Runing looked at the apple in her hand, which had indeed become smaller, and cut it into small pieces before handing it to Xu Luo.
"Lolo was eating apples, but Grandpa didn't like the way my apples were peeled, so he wouldn't give them to him, so we ate them instead."
Xu Luoyi took a piece of apple and chewed it in small bites.
Then she took another piece and handed it to Fu Zhangnan, "Grandpa Fu, eat the apple."
Fu Zhangnan took the apple from her hand, his eyes full of approval and satisfaction, "Good girl."
After sitting for a while, at Fu Zhangnan's urging, Fu Runing took the child and prepared to leave the hospital.
The continuous rainy days make people feel depressed.
In the elevator, Xu Luo held Fu Runing's hand and asked softly, "Mother Ning Ning, will Grandpa Fu be like my grandfather?"
"My grandfather later turned into a small box and was placed in that small compartment."
Fu Runing looked down at the girl's big, bright black eyes, feeling mixed emotions.
The grandfather who adopted Xu Luo died of cancer, so when she saw the hospital, she couldn't help but have such an association.
Fu Runing touched the top of her head and said, "Grandpa has just gone to another world. The people in that world will love us well.
We will all go to that world in the future and reunite with them."
Fu Runing didn't know whether she was comforting Xu Luo or herself.
When she got home, Fu Runing was in a bad mood and had no appetite, so she just ate a few bites of food.
It was past ten o'clock at night and everyone in the family was asleep. She got up from her room without disturbing anyone.
……
Xiao Jingting came back from outside and put the umbrella dripping with rain into the storage bucket beside him.
The Fu family’s villa is actually not as big as the Xishan Bay villa, and it is even more incomparable to Xiyuan, but this house has always been bustling.
Not to mention that Fu Runing likes to stay here, so does he.
Xiao Jingting changed his shoes at the entrance. He was going to go straight upstairs to the bedroom, but he found that the light was on in the kitchen.
He walked closer and saw Fu Runing in the kitchen.
At this time, she moved a small stool and sat in front of the trash can, holding an apple that was peeled terribly in her hand.
The trash can was filled with apple peels of various sizes and apples that had been cut into pieces.
When Fu Runing saw Xiao Jingting walk in, she just looked up at him, then lowered her head to struggle with the apple in her hand.
Xiao Jingting squatted in front of her and took the fruit knife from her hand.
He looked at her calmly, "You didn't sleep at night and took out your anger on the apple?"
Fu Runing, contrary to her usual behavior, did not argue with him, but murmured, "Why can't I peel it well?"
Xiao Jingting didn't say anything. He picked up a washed apple from the plate beside him, put the blade of the knife inward, and pressed his thumb against the peel. In just a moment, the peel was evenly peeled off along the fruit knife.
When the peel reached the bottom, a little bit was left uncut, and I wrapped it back on in circles, and it looked like a whole apple again.
Xiao Jingting put the peeled apple in her hand.
He asked, "Do you want to whittle more?"
He didn't teach her how to peel it, nor did he laugh at her for doing so. Instead, he waited for her to speak.
Fu Runing's eyes were a little dazed.
The atmosphere was silent.
She suddenly picked up the apple in her hand and started to bite it. The apples bought by Second Aunt were obviously very good, with a strong fruity aroma, but when she took a bite, she felt that they were not sweet at all.
Besides bitterness, there is also astringency.
She took several bites in a row, her mouth full, hoping to taste the sweetness, but there was none.
The rain outside has been falling, and it's really annoying.
Xiao Jingting watched her finish half of the apple, and her eyes slowly turned red.
Fu Runing has always been strong in front of him and rarely shows this side of her.
Xiao Jingting frowned slightly and slowed down his voice: "Are apples not delicious?"
She nodded, and before she had even completely swallowed the apple in her mouth, she couldn't wait to mumble, "It's not tasty. I don't know where Second Aunt bought it. Not only is the skin hard to peel, but it's not sweet at all."
"Then don't eat it."
Xiao Jingting's eyes darkened slightly, and he reached out to take the apple in her hand, trying to stop her behavior.
But Fu Runing refused and continued eating.
This apple seemed to be really unpalatable, and her eyes became even redder.
"Stop eating." Xiao Jingting's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of urgency in his tone.
The man snatched the half apple from her hand.
He was about to say something when Fu Runing suddenly lost her temper at him: "Why did you steal my things? Give it back to me!"
Her voice was choked with sobs, as if she felt extremely aggrieved that half of the apple had been taken away from her.
As she said this, she was about to snatch it back from him.
Xiao Jingting stood up and suddenly put his hand on her shoulder. He seemed unused to it and at a loss, and gently stroked her shoulder.
He asked softly, "What's wrong? Who bullied you?"
Fu Runing's emotions were instantly overwhelmed, and she could no longer hold back her tears after holding them back for half the night.
She didn't want to cry, but she couldn't hold back her tears.
Xiao Jingting looked at her tears and became visibly flustered. He wiped her tears with the back of his hand.
He stared at her face and asked in a deep voice: "Did Xiao Yanting bully you? Or Weng Yuqing? Or..."
Fu Runing shook her head and cried breathlessly.
"I don't know how to peel apples, but my dad won't peel them for me forever. I also don't know how to make red bean dumplings, so no one will make them for me in the future..."
"My dad...he's such a bad dad. He wanted to go meet my mom, but he had the heart to leave me alone?"
As she spoke with sobs, tears kept falling.
"But the chemotherapy process is so difficult and painful. He has been working hard for me for a long time."
Xiao Jingting listened to her words and gently stroked her back with his hand.
He also learned about Fu Zhangnan's condition from the doctor, and all that lingered in his heart was a deep sense of powerlessness.
The rain was still falling outside, and the willow trees were swaying in the wind and rain.
Xiao Jingting looked at the shadows of the trees outside the window, his throat rolling, "Don't cry, I'll take you somewhere."
