"I'm sorry, Ding Ding. Auntie got delayed because of something, but I promise I won't be late again in the future." Shen Ning immediately crouched down in front of Ding Ding and apologized softly, feeling deeply guilty.
It hurt her heart to see the child hadn't eaten dinner at this hour just because she hadn't come back.
"Auntie, did that bad person bully you today?" Ding Ding's little hand touched Shen Ning's bruised cheek, and he asked with concern.
Shen Ning's eyes turned red, and she quickly shook her head. "No, don't worry. There won't be any bad people bullying me anymore."
"Okay, if anyone dares to bully you again, you tell me right away, and I'll get revenge for you." Ding Ding held his little fist and earnestly advised.
Shen Ning nodded emphatically and said seriously, "Ding Ding, you also have to promise Auntie that if I'm not around, you'll eat your meals properly."
