Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 865 - 866: Hardly Touched

"You should come and comfort him. The child likes you, that’s why he wants you to hold him. Crying too long is bad for his throat." He Jun’s tone softened a lot; he wasn’t scolding her like before.

Initially, he wanted to say, the child is crying because of you, so you should be responsible for comforting him.

But thinking it over, if he said that, it would definitely upset Lin Xiaoting.

After all, he was the one who called her over to help, and now he’s blaming her for making the child cry? She would definitely get furious!

So, he decided to change his approach!

Lin Xiaoting frowned as she looked at He En crying; her heart ached too.

Moreover, He Jun’s tone softened, if she were to get angry and say something, she’d be in the wrong.

Seeing that she didn’t say she wanted to leave, He Jun quickly carried the child over in front of her.

Little He’en reached out and grabbed her clothes, Lin Xiaoting extended her arms to hold Little He’en.

Little He’en lay in her arms, sobbing softly, having cried quite sadly just now.

Lin Xiaoting felt a bit guilty; it wasn’t necessary to take out the frustration from her disagreements with He Jun on the child.

Little He’en always clung to her, preventing her from going to work at the bar.

After calming He En down, noticing they hadn’t eaten, she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Taking the opportunity, she called the bar manager to ask for leave, unexpectedly, the manager refused, demanding she arrive at the bar within half an hour, or else she’d lose the job!

Her fiery temper flared up, she directly said she was quitting!

That manager showed no compassion at all, so be it if she quits!

She would just have to find another job, after all, she didn’t like working in the nightlife anyway.

While distributing leaflets tomorrow, she could look for new job opportunities.

By the time she finished preparing dinner, it was already past seven; she fed He En.

He Jun sat across from them, he really enjoyed this scene.

It was very much like being a family...

"Have you found a stable job?" He Jun asked quickly, fearing she’d say she had a job, and hurriedly added, "I still haven’t found a babysitter for He En; if you haven’t found a stable job yet, could you possibly help me take care of him for a few days? I’ll pay you double the salary!"

He feared Lin Xiaoting might think he wouldn’t pay, so he specifically mentioned he would pay her double.

Because previously, he always docked her pay...

Lin Xiaoting shot him a glance, thought for a few seconds, and said, "I don’t know how to take care of a child..."

"You’ve already been doing well; I’m confident in leaving the child in your care."

"Oh," Lin Xiaoting responded sullenly; hearing him say he trusted her, some of the displeasure in her heart dissipated.

She also couldn’t bear to see Little He’en without anyone to care for him, even though she wasn’t very good at taking care of children, she was willing to learn to care for He En.

He En was quite pitiful too, having been separated from his mother since birth.

The father wasn’t very reliable... he couldn’t take care of him at all.

"You’ll stay in your old room; I didn’t move anything inside, you can sleep with He’en at night," He Jun observed her, it seemed she agreed.

"Okay," Lin Xiaoting answered, lost in thought about what he said.

He said he hadn’t touched the things in her room, what did that mean?

After dinner, they watched TV for a while, then Lin Xiaoting took He En to the bedroom to sleep.

The room was indeed the same as when she left, almost untouched.

She comforted Little He’en for a long time before he fell asleep; before sleeping, he kept fussing about wanting to find Tian Xingyun.

After all, he was raised by Tian Xingyun; the sudden departure was definitely difficult to adjust to.

Luckily, he also liked Lin Xiaoting; with Aunt Ting by his side, he felt secure enough to sleep.

Watching He En sleep, Lin Xiaoting finally got up to wash up in the bathroom.

Her toiletries were still there...

After washing up, she returned to bed, thinking about why He Jun hadn’t thrown away her things?

He was so determined to kick her out back then, she only had time to pack her clothes and couldn’t take anything else.
