Chapter 4939 You lied!
Maybe they shouldn't have told the lie in the first place.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up in such an embarrassing situation.
……
Grandpa Yu frowned.
After a long pause, he said, "...let it be."
……
Grandma Yu opened her mouth.
Let nature take its course?
How can this be natural?
……
But besides letting nature take its course…
What else can they do?
……
Grandma Yu smiled bitterly.
Just let it be as it is.
The child asked...
They said.
Children don’t ask…
is it possible?
……
But what Grandma Yu thought was impossible actually happened...
……
After the meal, the child didn't even ask about his parents...
what happened?
The two old men were full of doubts.
It is undeniable that they felt a little relieved.
So even if I don’t understand...
They exchanged glances many times.
They were uneasy.
They still didn't take the initiative to ask the children.
……
When the kids go back to their room...
The two old men looked at each other.
……
"……what happened?"
Grandma Yu even felt it was a little... magical.
The child cares so much about his parents. He wants to see them as soon as he wakes up, and he is also looking forward to seeing them on the way back...
The first thing I did when I got home was to look for my parents...
Such a child...
How come he didn't mention his parents at all during the whole dinner?
Especially when they told their children that their parents were at work to comfort them...
Logically, Mom and Dad should be back by dinner time.
In the child's cognition, he will definitely see his parents at dinner time...
But he didn't see it.
The child didn't show any concern at all?
……
too weird.
Why didn’t the children even ask them?
just like….
The child has completely forgotten about his parents.
……
how can that be possible?
……
"do not know."
Grandpa Yu reached out and rubbed his forehead.
"strangeness……"
On the one hand, it was undeniable that they were grateful for their child's... oblivion?
Forgotten or intentional...
they do not know.
But on the other hand, they felt a little uneasy about their children's behavior which they could not understand.
……
Grandma Yu pursed her lips.
Forget it.
Put aside the problems that you can't figure out for now.
Maybe I'll know by chance in the future.
After they told their children the truth...
Maybe they can get an answer from their child.
……
The two elderly people hoped that they didn't have any children and told the truth to their children.
They had thought they would tell the children soon.
After all, when they go home, the children can still get away with not seeing their parents for one, two, four or five days.
What if it’s seven days, eight days, ten days or half a month?
How could it be hidden?
Rather...
They seem to have really hidden it -
No.
It cannot be said that they concealed it.
Because the children didn't ask them at all.
……
Too strange……
The two old men were puzzled.
They still remember how nervous they were when they went out to buy groceries that afternoon...
After returning...
Did they lose a memory?
Or has the child lost a memory?
……
As time went by, the two old people felt a mixture of uneasiness, anxiety, and relief, and their emotions became more and more intense.
The two old people felt that their hearts were always in their throats.
It's an uncomfortable feeling, like waiting for execution.
……
They wanted to tell their children several times that their parents had left.
But every time I opened my mouth, I was speechless.
Retreat in disgrace.
...The two old people felt that such days were extremely awkward.
But I dare not burst this bubble.
They dare not mention anything about their parents in front of their children.
Not even a tentative attempt.
……
They are like ostriches with their heads buried in the sand.
feeling bad.
I don't want to pull my head out.
I am struggling every day.
Nothing changes from day to day.
……
However, they were secretly expecting a change.
They look forward to the day when their children will ask them: Where are mom and dad?
……
This kid...
Won’t you forget your parents?
For so many days, I haven't seen my parents, nor have I asked them, let alone mentioned them...
Too strange……
……
They seem to live in a thin soap bubble.
The bubbles are beautiful.
Ambilight.
But it is so fragile that it breaks with just a poke.
……
They were so cautious that they didn't want to burst the bubble even though they didn't understand why it appeared.
……
They are glad that this bubble appeared.
They even fantasize that this bubble will continue to exist.
I never thought that one day...
They were the ones who burst the bubble.
And hate the existence of this bubble.
……
The first time the two elderly people realized that something was wrong with their child was one night...
They took their children to the park for a walk.
……
This was the first time they had taken the children out at night since the accident.
The park is great for a walk on a summer evening.
The lush greenery and the water vapor from the lake make the park like a natural oxygen bar.
The temperature is suitable.
There are many people coming and going.
It was very lively.
The sounds of children laughing and playing can be heard everywhere.
The background music of square dancing is deafening.
The old ladies were all smiling and moving in unison.
……
The two old people looked at the children jumping and skipping in front of them with smiling eyes.
……
"Old Yu, Little Yu."
An acquaintance came over to say hello.
Everyone who knows the two old people knows that they have the same surname. In order to distinguish them, they call Grandpa Yu Lao Yu and Grandma Yu Xiao Yu.
Grandpa Yu protested a little.
Why is he "old"?
The protest was ineffective.
Grandma Yu nodded with a smile, accepting the two titles.
……
"My parents are not dead!"
....
The child's shouting brought a brief silence to the noisy space.
……
Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu immediately recognized that it was their grandson's voice.
They looked up hurriedly.
Because they were chatting with acquaintances just now, they didn't pay much attention to the child.
They also saw that the park was quite lively, with most of the people there being nearby neighbors, so they didn't worry too much.
……
What's happening?
The two old people found their grandson.
They immediately walked over quickly.
……
"You are lying!"
The little girl opposite me put her hands on her hips and her eyes widened, "My grandparents said your parents died in a car accident!"
……
"no!"
Yu Lele almost screamed, "How can you say that about my parents..."
The child was anxious to do something to vent his anger.
He couldn't help but reach out to push the little girl.
Let her talk nonsense!
……
"Lele!"
Just before Yu Lele's hand was about to touch the little girl, Grandma Yu grabbed Yu Lele's hand.
"what are you doing?!"
Grandma Yu was a little out of breath.
His face showed shock and anger.
