Chapter 247 - Taking A Shower (1/2)

”Little Aunt, what's wrong?” Shen Lu was shocked by Emily's appearance. He hurriedly got down from the e-sports chair and looked at Emily with a worried face. Seeing that Emily was crying so sadly, he also started to cry.

”Aunt is fine. Xiao Lu, don't cry.” Only then did Emily realize that she was not the only one in the room. There was also Shen Lu. She hurriedly adjusted her state of mind, hugged Shen Lu in her arms, and comforted Shen Lu's emotions.

”Little Aunt... Little Aunt, don't cry. Xiao Lu will go to sleep obediently.” Shen Lu thought that it was because he had never gone to sleep, so Emily cried sadly. He hurriedly promised her.

Emily felt a little heartache as she carried Shen Lu and placed him on the bed. ”Okay, our Xiao Lu is the most obedient.”

”Little Aunt, I want to sleep with you. Mom isn't here, so I'm scared alone.” Shen Lu stopped crying and reached out to grab Emily's thumb tightly. He was unwilling to let go.

”Okay, I'll sleep with you today. But you have to be obedient. Don't kick the blanket.”

The phone next to Emily rang. It was a call from Shen Yu. Emily hesitated for a moment and picked up the phone. ”Hello?”

”Emi, I was taking a shower just now. What's the matter?” Shen Yu's voice came from the other end of the phone. Hearing the word 'shower', Emily's eyes couldn't help but redden.

”It's nothing. I know you're taking a shower. I just wanted to ask if you're here. You're fine now.”

Emily held back her tears. She did not want her voice to sound out of place.

However, Shen Yu, who knew Emily very well, could tell that there was something wrong with Emily. On the other end of the phone, Shen Yu started to panic.

”Emi, what's wrong? Are you worried because Grandma fainted today? I'll be back soon. Don't worry, the matter will be resolved soon.”

”If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. Shen Lu is beside me. I'm afraid I'll wake him up.” Emily desperately wanted to hang up the phone. Even if she heard Shen Yu's voice now, she would feel sad.

”Shen Lu? Is he Big Brother's child?” Shen Yu did not want to hang up the phone so soon. He always felt that Emily had been deliberately distancing herself from him for the past few days.

”Brother, I'm really tired. I want to rest. You should be tired after just getting off the plane. I'll hang up first. Goodbye.”
