Extreme Love

Chapter 276 Something is missing

A trace of pain flashed across Lu Tingxuan's deep black pupils, and he murmured, "If our child were still alive, would he look like me?"

That was a past that he could never let go of.

Lin Ting turned his head slightly away, not daring to look Lu Tingxuan in the eye again. He responded casually, "Not all children look like their parents. Some look like their uncle."

After hearing this, Lu Tingxuan lowered his eyes and said nothing more.

Lin Ting sometimes felt that Lu Tingxuan was really stupid in some aspects. He could see that Shishi looked like Sheng Lin, but didn’t he notice that she looked like Sheng Lin too?

She took out a thin quilt from the cupboard and said, "You and Shishi can sleep on the bed tonight, and I'll sleep on the sofa."

When Lin Ting woke up, he found that Lu Tingxuan and Shishi were not in the room.

She subconsciously picked up her phone and checked the time. It was already past ten in the morning.

She slept so soundly last night that she didn't even notice when someone carried her to bed.

Suddenly, she sat up. Where had Lu Tingxuan taken Shishi? Could he have discovered something?

She put on her slippers and took a few steps when she realized she was sleepy.

Given Lu Tingxuan's personality, if he had discovered something, how could she still be sleeping? He would have already picked her up and questioned her.

Lin Ting went upstairs and heard Shishi's exclamation.

She looked in the direction of the sound and saw Shishi standing beside Lu Tingxuan in the courtyard, holding a small net tightly in her little hands, her eyes wide open, her face full of curiosity and excitement.

Every time the little guy saw Lu Tingxuan open a clam and take out the pearl inside, his little mouth would open wide instantly and he would let out an extremely happy exclamation.

Meanwhile, the Lu family sat by the pond, fishing rods in hand. But their minds were elsewhere. The two elders tilted their heads, their gaze fixed on Shishi, their affection nearly overflowing.

The sunlight shone on them, as if giving them a layer of golden light, warm and dazzling.

Lin Ting stood in the house, watching the scene quietly.

Her thoughts gradually drifted away, and she remembered her long-cherished desire for the complete family love of an ordinary family.

But now, she has left her children without a complete family, just like herself.

Although Sheng Lin's love for the children was extremely deep, even surpassing her own, she always felt that the children were missing something.

It was as if she had never seen Shishi smile so unreservedly and fully release his nature when he was with Sheng Lin. He always imitated Sheng Lin to be as deep as a little old man.

Perhaps only the thicker-than-blood and innate love of one’s original family is what children truly yearn for in their hearts.

Unconsciously, Lin Ting had captured this heartwarming scene with his mobile phone.

She looked at the photos on her phone, and an indescribable emotion welled up in her heart.

It would be so perfect if my daughter was in the picture too.

She occasionally falls into self-doubt, wondering if she is repeating her biological mother's mistakes by doing this.

Involving the grievances of the previous generation onto the next generation, depriving them of the family affection and life that originally belonged to them.

She had an irreconcilable conflict in her heart and could not reconcile with Lu Tingxuan, but the child was innocent.

Shishi was the first to discover Lin Ting. He waved his hands and shouted at the top of his voice, "Auntie, there are black beads in this beibei!"

What! Lu Tingxuan opened a Tahitian black pearl?!

Lin Ting's melancholy suddenly dissipated, and he rushed to Lu Tingxuan, his eyes full of excitement: "Where is it? Let me see."

Lu Tingxuan raised the corner of his mouth and handed the pearl in his hand to Lin Ting. The pearl sparkled with a dark luster in the sunlight.

Lin Ting subconsciously shielded his eyes from the sunlight with his hands, and leaned in to examine the pearls carefully. He couldn't help but exclaim, "This quality is too good."

Lu Tingxuan smiled with pride and said, "Take a look at this." As if performing a magic trick, he pulled out another pearl from behind his back and said, "Isn't this peacock green one even more stunning?"

Among these baskets of seashells, only these two decent ones were produced, which is as rare as winning the lottery.
