Chapter 201

Hao Yan Che stroked Yuan Gun Gun’s wind swept hair. His gentleness always made her flustered.
‘If I tell you my wish, it won’t come true,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.
Hao Yan Che wanted to make Yuan Gun Gun’s face turn a brighter red. His lips moved closer to her lips. When she couldn’t tilt her head back any further, his lips moved to her ear.
‘How many planes have you captured?’ Hao Yan Che whispered in Yuan Gun Gun’s ear.
‘I…’ Yuan Gun Gun said.
Yuan Gun Gun was disappointed Hao Yan Che didn’t kiss her. He carried her in his arms like how he carried their son.
‘Little Chub, if you want your wish to come true,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘Tomorrow I’ll take you to the Hao Household’s airport, and you can capture one thousand planes.’
‘That won’t count,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.
‘You ask for too much,’ Hao Yan Che teased.
‘Hey,’ Yuan Gun Gun said. ‘Can I ask you something?’
‘I’m not hey,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘Call me by my name.’
‘Hao Yan Che,’ Yuan Gun Gun called.
‘I see,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘I didn’t satisfy you last night, and you forgot what I said to you.’
Yuan Gun Gun hit Hao Yan Che’s shoulder.
‘Stop teasing me like this,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.
‘Then say my name,’ Hao Yan Che said.
‘Che,’ Yuan Gun Gun called.
‘Good,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘Ask me anything.’
‘Do you know what DOVE means?’ Yuan Gun Gun asked.
‘Why do you ask?’ Hao Yan Che asked.
‘Because the doctor told me if I remember DOVE then it must be something important to me,’ Yuan Gun Gun said.
Hao Yan Che took off his jacket and draped it around Yuan Gun Gun’s shoulders.
‘The truth is after you left, I discovered you embroidered and wrote Dove everywhere around our home,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘You wrote it on my clothes, your clothes, towels, the ceilings and even on the rugs. Every day I thought about what DOVE meant to you. I thought perhaps you love DOVE chocolates. Because I don’t let you eat chocolates every day, it was your way of saying you want to eat chocolates every day.’
‘That’s what big brother Du said too,’ Yuan Gun Gun said. ‘Don’t tell me in everyone’s eyes I’m someone who loves eating.’
‘You do love eating,’ Hao Yan Che said.
In the past Hao Yan Che would be angry to hear Yuan Gun Gun mention Na Liu Ting Du’s name. But he knew he shouldn’t be too greedy. He was a thousand times more blessed than Na Liu Ting Du, because Yuan Gun Gun chose him.
‘I’m sleepy,’ Yuan Gun Gun said. ‘I want to go home and sleep.’
‘Alright,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘We’ll go home and sleep.’
Several days past, Yuan Gun Gun was happier each day living with Hao Yan Che. But no one expected their son would stir up their blissful life together instead of Na Liu Ting Du.
‘I want daddy,’ Na Liu Hao said.
Na Liu Ha turned his face violet and looked coldly at his mummy.
‘Hao Hao, didn’t mummy say that daddy left us?’ Yuan Gun Gun asked.
‘I want daddy,’ Na Liu Hao said.
‘Mummy knows you miss daddy,’ Yuan Gun Gun said. ‘Mummy miss daddy too. If daddy left us, how can mummy find him?’
Yuan Gun Gun was sad Na Liu Ting Du left without saying goodbye to her and Na Liu Hao.
‘Hao Hao, don’t cause trouble,’ Yuan Gun Gun said. ‘Uncle Hao will be unhappy if he hears you.’
Na Liu Hao made a wardrobe topple between him and his mummy.
‘I want daddy!’ Na Liu Hao said.
Yuan Gun Gun covered her ears. Na Liu Hao’s booming voice shattered the window glass and mirrors in the room.
Hao Yan Che kicked open the door, walked to his son and slapped his son’s cheek.
Yuan Gun Gun’s heart broke to see her husband hit their son’s cheek. She ran to their son, and hugged him.
‘Son, how old are you?’ Hao Yan Che asked. ‘Don’t tell me that you don’t know you can’t use your powers to harm your family members. You could have injured your mummy.’
