"Okay."
"Just say, 'My mom has gone to bed. Please stop sending messages to my mom.'"
Chi Yunqi nodded.
Then he opened WeChat on the iPad and started voice - inputting.
His four - year - old childish voice was extremely tender. He kept long - pressing the screen and repeated what Song Jinhe had just said:
"My mom has gone to bed. Please stop sending messages to my mom."
Sure enough, as soon as the voice message was sent, there was no more message from Zhang Shiming.
"Mom, he didn't reply."
"Okay."
"Play for a while more. Mom will go to bed after drying her hair."
"Okay."
After drying her hair, Song Jinhe got into bed and took the iPad from Chi Yunqi's hand.
Looking at the chat box with Zhang Shiming, she couldn't help curling the corners of her lips slightly. She seemed to have discovered that using Yunqi was particularly effective against Zhang Shiming.
It worked better than sending a long string of messages herself.
There was a message in the contact list about a new user adding her.
As soon as Song Jinhe approved the request, a long string of messages came from the other side.
[Ms. Shen, we are really sorry. We know we were wrong. We sincerely apologize to you here.]
[We did wrong last time at the kindergarten gate. We're sorry for what we did to you.]
[Do you think we can settle this privately?]
This should be the woman who had an argument with her outside the kindergarten last time.
During this period, Teacher Xiaoqian had also contacted her privately, suggesting a private settlement instead of going through legal procedures.
At that time, she had handed this matter over to Uncle Zhao.
The materials for the lawsuit should have been prepared.
Song Jinhe had replied to Teacher Xiaoqian several times: [I reject the settlement. Let her come to me in person.]
Last time, that woman had been so high - and - mighty, pointing fingers at Song Jinhe, making comments and saying extremely unpleasant things.
She had even reached out to grab her son. Now that they were about to face legal procedures, she finally started to get anxious.
Through the screen, one could feel the solemnity in Song Jinhe's tone: [Sorry, I really don't feel your sincerity.]
Mainly, Song Jinhe thought that the woman's apology missed the point.
The message from the other side came immediately: [Ms. Shen, we're really sorry. I sincerely apologize to you here.]
[Last time at the kindergarten gate, I shouldn't have scolded you, shouldn't have commented on your clothes, and definitely shouldn't have said those misleading and slanderous words.]
[I also shouldn't have laid hands on your son. I really know my mistakes. Ms. Shen, please forgive me.]
[We only have one son in our family. We've worked hard all our lives to settle in this city. We've spent a lot of savings to send our child to this school.]
[This is a huge pressure on our family. We can't afford any more trouble.]
[Ms. Shen, you can ask me to apologize in any way you like. As long as you don't sue and don't go to court, I'll do anything you want.]
Actually, after this incident happened, Song Jinhe didn't really care about it.
Chi Yunqi was lying in Song Jinhe's arms, his little head resting on her arm, and his eyes also fixed on the tablet.
Song Jinhe looked at little Yunqi lying obediently beside her, handed the tablet to him, and tilted her head slightly.
Their heads were touching. Song Jinhe's voice was as gentle as water: "Baby, do you think we should forgive her?"
"She's the aunt who pinched your arm that day."
Chi Yunqi just nodded and said, "I'll listen to you, Mom. As long as you're willing to forgive, I will."
Chi Yunqi thought his arm was fine, but the words those two women had said to his mom that day were really hateful.
So he thought the decision should be up to his mom.
"Good boy."
Song Jinhe typed: [Don't let there be a next time. Next time you see me, remember to go around.]
The other side's tone was very respectful: [Okay.]
Only then did Song Jinhe switch the iPad to the background. Little Yunqi had picked a movie in advance.
It was a costume - love movie that Chi Yan had starred in two years ago.
He played a great general who defended the country in it, and the female lead was a courtesan.
When this movie was first released, it was a huge hit. Chi Yan even won the Golden Rooster Best Actor Award because of this movie.
The two of them were sitting quietly on the bed. The scene was extremely warm and harmonious.
Chi Yunqi's small body was completely nestled in Song Jinhe's arms. He was looking at the screen with his big round eyes, looking so cute.
The plot developed quickly. Both of them were almost completely absorbed in the movie.
However, neither of them expected that there was a kiss scene of Chi Yan in this movie!
The female lead was wearing a very thin red gauze dress that perfectly outlined her figure.
Her slender and fair fingers slowly climbed up Chi Yan's chest.
She even spun around and sat seductively on the man's lap.
One of her hands was tightly hooked around the man's neck, while the other was gently placed on his chest, constantly fidgeting.
This already ambiguous and charming posture, combined with the close - up shots in the movie that focused on the female lead's red lips and fair skin, made the air seem filled with ambiguity.
Seeing this moment, both of them frowned deeply.
Song Jinhe didn't know why, but a feeling of discomfort suddenly welled up in her heart.
There was a trace of jealousy that she didn't even notice.
Chi Yunqi stared fixedly at the iPad screen. Why did Dad film such a scene?
He turned his head and carefully observed Song Jinhe's expression. Did he do something wrong out of good intentions and pick the wrong movie?
The next moment, Chi Yan's big hand gently rested on the female lead's slender waist.
The camera even gave a close - up of the man's well - defined fingers with protruding veins. The atmosphere between the two was extremely ambiguous.
Then the next moment, the camera became a bit blurry and out of focus.
But one could still see the blurred outlines of their faces getting closer.
They kissed.
Suddenly, Song Jinhe didn't even have the heart to continue watching.
She just sat there stupidly, her eyebrows furrowed deeply, obviously looking unhappy.
Her whole face turned cold.
Chi Yunqi stole a glance at her, immediately reached out and paused the iPad, then turned it off.
"Mom, I'm a bit sleepy. I don't really want to watch anymore. Let's go to sleep."
Song Jinhe just felt extremely sad.
Obviously, he had nothing to do with her now. What did she have to be sad about? She didn't even have the right to be sad.
Moreover, he was an actor, and it was normal to have kiss scenes.
Song Jinhe was lost in thought and didn't even hear what Chi Yunqi said.
