Chapter 38
Chapter 38
Crazy Little Dinosaur tells the story of protagonist Long Long who gets lost and separated from his parents during an outing. From then on, he embarks on a journey to find his parents.
Along the way, he goes through many events and also meets many friends who share his hardship. Finally, he is able to find his parents who have also been looking for him.
In the climactic ending, the little yellow dinosaur runs towards the two tall dinosaurs, waving his little tail. "Mom! Dad! I found you!"
"I never gave up on myself. I'm awesome, aren't I?"
Long's Mom's gentle voice rings out in the theater: "My Long Long has always been the best. Long Long, we miss you every second. From now on, our family of three will never be apart again."
Long's Dad laughs heartily: "Long Long is brave, strong, smart and kind. Your mom and I are so proud of you."
Finally, the family of three walks away slowly under the setting sun.
Their shadows are stretched long by the sunset. Accompanied by moving background music, one can hear many little friends sobbing in the theater.
Baby Shang also widens his eyes. His jet black eyes shine brightly. He turns to glance at his mom on the left and his dad on the right.
In that moment, his little heart thumps rapidly, boiling over. He seems to have become Long Long too. He also wants to be Long Long.
Gu Wen raises his hand to caress the cub's hair and asks in a low voice, "What do you think? Do you like it?"
Baby Shang nods vigorously.
Gu Wen's eyes soften slightly as he reaches out to pinch the cub's chubby cheeks, "That's good that you like it."
Shang Xi thinks the same way as Gu Wen - it's good that their son enjoyed it.
In the next three days, the two adults bring their son out to play after picking him up from school every day.
Baby Shang is clearly closer to Gu Wen now. He tiptoes to place the little gifts dad gives him every day in a small box, right next to the glass bottle with flowers from mom.
Sometimes when he remembers, he would patter over and touch the small box and look at the flowers again. His big jet black eyes would shine brightly as they curve up. His little tail would sway uncontrollably behind him.
Shang Xi is busy with work nearby, figuring out how many orders to place for the store tomorrow for items that are running low today.
Seeing her son's actions, a gentle smile surfaces on her face. She shakes her head with a laugh and continues working, head lowered.
In this world, she only cares about her son.
As long as her cub is happy and healthy, she can endure anything unpleasant.
It will be Saturday tomorrow.
Shang Xi guesses Gu Wen will bring their son out to play again. She arranges her work in advance. She's also taking tomorrow off. There's no end to making money, it's better to spend more time with their son.
Baby Shang starts looking forward to dad coming into his room to feed him cold springs.
When he sees Gu Wen's figure appear in the doorway, his eyes would light up as he calls out, "Dad!"
At times like this, it seems Gu Wen's fatigue from the entire day disappears. The corners of his eyes would crinkle as he rubs the cub's head and feeds him cold springs.
As for Shang Xi, he would only casually glance at her when leaving the room, then exit.
After he leaves the room, Shang Xi receives a short text from Gu Wen: "Come out."
Is it to discuss where to bring Baby Shang to play tomorrow?
He could have just said it in the text message. Shang Xi walks out of the room.
Gu Wen stands in the hallway, his posture straight. With dark hair and eyes, his features are heroic and clean.
"What's the matter?" Shang Xi asks.
Gu Wen's dark eyes stare at her as he says in a clear cold voice, "My friend is having a birthday tomorrow. I'm bringing the cub."
Both of them have been bringing their son out recently so Shang Xi is used to it. She nods naturally, "Alright, I'm not working tomorrow anyway, what time are you going?"
She seems to take for granted that she would be going too.
Gu Wen stares at her with his slender dark eyes for a moment, no ripple can be seen. He states lightly, "I'm only bringing the cub tomorrow."
Shang Xi is taken aback. She thinks of how she had just assumed she would be going, and feels a tinge of embarrassment creep up her cheeks.
That's right, it's Gu Wen's friend's birthday. Why would he want her there? Last time when they went to eat with her few friends, he had specifically texted to remind her to keep quiet.
She must have been confused from being busy!
"I hope you can tell the cub to listen to you," Gu Wen looks solemn and serious.
He doesn't seem to take her previous "matter of course" to heart at all, only wanting to discuss proper matters.
So Shang Xi doesn't feel that embarrassed anymore either.
She thinks for a bit and says, "I usually don't make decisions for him. Let me ask if he wants to go, I don't mind if he does."
"Alright."
Gu Wen nods and leaves.
Shang Xi watches his retreating figure until he's far away. She pats her own face, ah...she still feels a little embarrassed!
She enters the room.
After telling her son about it, Baby Shang is puzzled, "Why isn't mom going?"
Shang Xi thinks to herself, it's your dad's friend's birthday. Our relationship is awkward, it's not suitable for me to go.
Of course she can't say this to her son.
But her son is smart and understands.
Before she can even speak, Baby Shang already nods in understanding, "I see, mom is very busy."
Shang Xi...
Shang Xi smiles slightly, "Do you want to go with dad? It should be quite fun. Your dad also hopes you'll go."
Baby Shang purses his little lips and nods, "Okay, since he hopes for it so much..."
So the next day, when Shang Xi sees the designer bring out formal tailcoats, little suits, all kinds of little boots and leather shoes to the grand living room, she realizes Gu Wen had notified the designer early to prepare for bringing the cub to his friend's birthday banquet today.
She looks through them and eventually dresses her son in a beautiful and exquisite little white shirt, black loose shorts that reach the knees, long socks to the knees, and finally little leather shoes.
Although Baby Shang is only four, his features are very distinct already - high nose bridge, jawline. Anyone would praise what a handsome little boy he is. His little brow is slightly furrowed as he stands in the spacious bright living room. Considering his current status, he truly lives up to being called a "little young master."
Gu Wen is wearing a black shirt, looking slightly more casual than usual. He glances at Shang Xi and nods lightly, "Let's go."
Shang Xi can't help worrying, "Please don't let him out of your sight for a second."
She knows that Gu Wen is powerful and their son is safest with him. But as a mother, she can't help worrying.
She expects to hear Gu Wen scoff, mocking her ignorance or rebuking her presumption.
After all, as the head of a werewolf family, how could he fail to protect their cub?
Unexpectedly, Gu Wen seriously murmurs in agreement, "I know."
He has said before that he believes humans are fickle and frivolous in relationships - this is his bias.
But motherly love is different.
Motherly love is great and sacred, worthy of respect, in any race.
"Bye mom," Baby Shang tiptoes to kiss his mom on the cheek and waves his little hand.
"Have fun playing, cub," Shang Xi watches as the pure black Veiooi her son boarded leaves. She slowly exhales a breath, her entire body relaxing.
Alright, now she has nothing to do.
On this rare day off, she suddenly doesn't know what to do.
Just then, her best friend Zhou Ziyou calls to ask her out for shopping and a meal.
Shang Xi agrees right away. She tidies up and puts on simple makeup before grabbing her bag and heading out.
