The richest man's parents were kidnapped, and his adorable son captivated the entire family.

Gu Jingsi retorted, "I'm her uncle! Whoever treats Mengmeng well and makes her happy every day without any worries has the right to take her in."

Those few words were like buckets of cold water, splashed right on Gu Shiyu.

He's absolutely right. These past few days, Mengmeng has not only been unhappy here, but she's also been very sad, and even has been experiencing anxiety and distress.

On the day he saw her at the orphanage, his first thought was that this little sister was very cute, and he wanted to take her home and love her dearly.

But after she came to the Gu family, she kept helping them solve these troublesome problems. Just when they were finally living a happy and carefree life, everything was disrupted again because of Tian Tian's arrival.

Gu Shiyu glanced at Mengmeng, and the moment their eyes met, he guiltily looked away.

He failed to keep any of the promises he made.

Mengmeng let go of Ruolan's hand and got off the sofa. She glanced at Gu Jingsi, then at Gu Shiyu, and then walked towards Gu Jingsi.

Gu Shiyu's heart skipped a beat, and he clenched his fists, so nervous that he stopped breathing.

Is she going to go abroad with her uncle?

If that's the case, he can't ask Mengmeng to stay, since they've let Mengmeng down.

On the contrary, Gu Jingsi was so excited that he wanted to shout loudly so that everyone would know his joy.

"Uncle, I know that you and Auntie both love Mengmeng very much and want to live with her," Mengmeng said slowly.

Her gentle words were like a piece of candy, making Gu Jingsi's face beam with a smile.

Nan Yuan'er sensed something was wrong and reached out to tug at the smug Gu Jingsi.

Gu Jingsi glanced at her, took her hand and said, "Yuan'er, check which flights are running recently and we'll go over and prepare a room for Mengmeng. It has to be cozy."

"Uncle," Mengmeng called out to Gu Jingsi, "I still want to live with my mom and dad."

He had just been fantasizing about how happy he would be living with Mengmeng and their unborn child, but the next second, Mengmeng's words extinguished his beautiful fantasy.

"Why?" Gu Jingsi pressed.

Since she has expressed her affection for them, she should leave with them.

“Auntie is about to give birth. Grandma the headmistress said that women need a lot of attention and companionship when giving birth and when the baby is first born. Mengmeng doesn’t want to take away the companionship and attention that the baby should have.” After Mengmeng finished speaking, her gaze fell on Nan Yuan’er’s swollen belly.

"No, that won't happen," Gu Jingsi retorted. "Your uncle and aunt will treat you equally and will give you all their attention and companionship."

Mengmeng smiled, but did not respond immediately.

When dealing with things, everyone's first instinct is to be fair and just, to apply the same principles to achieve the best possible outcome. But this is a very difficult thing to do; even the palm and back of the hand are both parts of the hand, and they differ in thickness.

Gu Jingsi, who was still full of enthusiasm and wanted to persuade Mengmeng, instantly lost his momentum upon seeing her calm smile.

It's easy to say, but incredibly difficult to do. Otherwise, how could he even have the opportunity to dream?

Gu Jingsi sighed deeply, and instantly drooped his head like a wilted eggplant.

“Jing Si, let’s stay at home for a while longer. You can spend more time with Mengmeng and won’t feel like she’s far away from you.” Nan Yuan’er teased. “Mengmeng, you have no idea how much your uncle has been talking about you since he went back. Sometimes he even talks in his sleep at night, calling your name.”

After saying that, she covered her mouth and laughed, dispelling the sentimental atmosphere.

Gu Jingsi blushed, scratched his ear, and muttered embarrassedly, "Why are you saying these things? It's so awkward."

“What’s wrong with that, Mengmeng? You agree, right?” Nan Yuan’er asked Mengmeng.

Mengmeng nodded and took Gu Jingsi's arm. "Uncle, I missed you a lot while you were gone. I also missed Auntie and wanted to see the baby in her belly as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jingsi's earlier sadness vanished. He smoothly lifted Mengmeng into his arms with one hand, "Really? Don't tell me you're just trying to cheer Uncle up?"

“Mengmeng wouldn’t lie. Mengmeng’s picture book also contains drawings of Uncle, Aunt, and the unborn baby.” After saying that, Mengmeng struggled to get down and pretended to go to the room on the second floor to get them.

The atmosphere was so warm and cozy because of Mengmeng, and he didn't want her to leave and take the mood with her. Gu Jingsi held her hand and said with a smile, "No need to go get it, Uncle trusts Mengmeng."

However, Nan Yuan'er was somewhat curious about the content of the painting, especially the mention of the unborn child.

Is the painting of a girl or a boy?

This was her and Gu Jingsi's first child, and Nan Yuan'er hadn't thought about getting a checkup to see if it was a boy or a girl. After all, she didn't care about the gender.

Right now, she was busy preparing things for the baby's birth and wanted to hear Mengmeng tell her about the gender of the baby in her belly.

"Mengmeng, can you feel the little baby in Auntie's belly?" Nan Yuan'er asked gently.

Mengmeng nodded. "When Mengmeng put her hand on her aunt's stomach, she could feel them greeting her."

"Say hello?" Gu Jingsi immediately became curious. "Does it mean I want to talk to you?"

Mengmeng shook her head, "They can't talk yet."

Nan Yuan'er turned around and looked at Gu Jingsu, who looked completely unreliable.

The baby is still very young, only the size of an orange in the womb, and not fully developed yet. How could the baby possibly have normal verbal communication with Mengmeng?

Gu Jingsi asked curiously, "So how do you greet someone?"

"That's it." Mengmeng didn't know how to explain, so she reached out her hand to Gu Jingsi's stomach.

All eyes turned to Mengmeng, staring curiously at her hands.

He pressed his palm against his stomach, and then poked different parts of his body with his fingers.

Gu Shiyu stared in confusion, not understanding what this action meant.

However, Ruolan, who had experienced childbirth herself, immediately understood, "Mengmeng was referring to fetal movement."

Her words made Gu Jingsi and Nan Yuan'er instantly realize what was going on.

However, they soon realized something was wrong.

How could there be fetal movement when the pregnancy is so early in the pregnancy? Usually, fetal movement only occurs in the weeks leading up to delivery.

Gu Jingsi raised his hand and placed it on Nan Yuan'er's stomach, turned to the side, frowned, and focused all his attention on her stomach.

Where is the fetal movement?

He could only feel Nan Yuan'er's breathing causing her belly to move slightly.

Mengmeng placed her hand on the empty space next to her and said earnestly, "The baby is sleeping."
