Jiang Mingyuan's eyes softened, and he nodded slightly to express understanding.

He walked to Dongdong, touched his head gently, and said softly: "Dongdong, it's time to sleep."

Dongdong looked up at Shen Qingyue, then at Jiang Mingyuan, and then nodded. He packed up his homework and prepared to go to bed.

Jiang Mingyuan held Dongdong's hand and took him to wash up. Their movements were gentle, trying not to make any noise so as not to disturb Shen Qingyue's thoughts.

Shen Qingyue was left alone in the living room. She sat quietly and looked out the window unfocused.

Jiang Mingyuan gently led Dongdong into his room. He gently helped Dongdong change into his pajamas, and then guided him to wash up.

During the washing process, Jiang Mingyuan carefully guided Dongdong to ensure that his teeth were brushed clean.

Dongdong's little hand held the toothbrush awkwardly, but with Jiang Mingyuan's patient help, he quickly completed washing.

After washing up, Jiang Mingyuan gently held Dongdong's hand and returned to his little bed.

He gently put Dongdong on the bed, and then carefully covered him with a quilt. Jiang Mingyuan sat on the edge of the bed and began to tell a warm bedtime story.

His voice was soft and rhythmic, like a gentle lullaby. The wonderful adventures and dreamy scenes in the story attracted Dongdong's full attention.

The room is filled with a warm atmosphere, and soft lighting sets a peaceful backdrop for the upcoming moments of sleep.

Dongdong was nestled beside the bed, his little face looked a little tired, but there was still concern for his mother in his eyes.

Jiang Mingyuan sat by the bed and said softly: "Dongdong, mom will be fine, don't worry. Now, it's your time to rest."

Dongdong nodded, his eyes showed a trace of reluctance, but he still closed his eyes obediently.

Dongdong's eyes gradually became hazy, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier. Jiang Mingyuan watched Dongdong gradually fall into sleep, his expression full of fatherly love.

After gently kissing Dongdong's forehead, Jiang Mingyuan stood up and carefully closed the door to the room, making sure not to make any noise.

Return to the living room. Shen Qingyue still sat where she was, her eyes still looking out the window. Jiang Mingyuan walked to her side gently.

He noticed that although Shen Qingyue was at home, her eyes still looked fearful.

He said gently: "Qingyue, I know you have been through a lot, but now you are back home safely. Don't let yourself be immersed in fear anymore. Try to relax, and taking a bath may help you."

Shen Qingyue's eyes slowly turned to Jiang Mingyuan, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes.

She nodded slightly, her voice trembling slightly: "Okay, I will try."

Jiang Mingyuan gently held her hand and comforted her. The warmth from his palm seemed to give Shen Qingyue some strength. She slowly stood up and walked to the bathroom.

Jiang Mingyuan sat on the sofa in the living room, frowning slightly, immersed in deep thought.

He replayed what happened today repeatedly in his mind, trying to find a clue as to who could cause such fear to Shen Qingyue.

His eyes looked determined, determined to protect his family from any threats.

Shen Qingyue appeared at the door of the living room again, her steps seemed a little hesitant.

Her posture seemed a little stiff, as if she was struggling with some emotion in her heart.

She didn't take a shower as Jiang Mingyuan suggested. Instead, she stood there, looking a little uneasy.

Jiang Mingyuan immediately noticed something strange about Shen Qingyue. He got up from the sofa and walked towards her, his eyes full of concern.

His voice was gentle: "Qingyue, what's wrong? Didn't you go take a shower?" Shen Qingyue's voice was weak and showed a hint of vulnerability: "I...I'm a little afraid of being alone in the bathroom. Can you please wait for me outside?" Her eyes betrayed a desire for support.

Jiang Mingyuan's eyes softened a lot, and he completely understood Shen Qingyue's uneasiness.

He nodded gently, his tone full of comfort: "Of course, Qingyue. I will wait for you outside the door, you don't have to be afraid."

A relieved smile appeared on Shen Qingyue's face, and her shoulders seemed to relax because of Jiang Mingyuan's words. She said softly: "Thank you, Mingyuan."

Jiang Mingyuan accompanied Shen Qingyue to the bathroom door, then stayed outside and stood close to the door.

His presence gave Shen Qingyue great psychological comfort. Shen Qingyue slowly walked into the bathroom and closed the door.

Shen Qingyue stood in front of the bathroom mirror, her eyes fixed on her reflection.

There was a faint blush on her cheeks, and she looked a little embarrassed. She looked fragile in the mirror, her eyes full of complicated emotions.

She let out a gentle breath and tried to calm down. As time passed, she began to slowly take off her clothes, each movement appearing to be extremely cautious, as if she was afraid of breaking some fragile balance.

The clothes fell to the ground one by one, and Shen Qingyue's body was gradually exposed to the warm light.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to drive away the uneasiness in her heart.

Turning on the shower switch, warm water drops began to fall from the top of her head and slowly slid over her body.

The water flows through Shen Qingyue's body, bringing a little bit of comfort and relaxation.

She closed her eyes and let the warm water caress every inch of her skin. However, the fear in my heart has not completely dissipated.

Every once in a while, she would call Jiang Mingyuan's name softly to confirm that he was still outside the door.

"Mingyuan, are you still there?" Shen Qingyue's voice came through the bathroom door, with a hint of trembling.

"I'm here, Qingyue." Jiang Mingyuan's voice was calm and firm, coming from outside the door.

His words were like a beam of light, illuminating the dark corners of Shen Qingyue's heart.

When Shen Qingyue heard Jiang Mingyuan's answer, the tension in her heart gradually eased.

She continued to bathe, trying her best to immerse herself in the warmth of the water and try to get rid of the uneasiness in her heart.

During the bath, she repeated this interaction from time to time.

Whenever fear surges into her heart, she will call Jiang Mingyuan, and Jiang Mingyuan always responds patiently and comforts her.

Finally, Shen Qingyue finished taking a bath. She turned off the shower and the sound of water stopped.

She slowly put on her pajamas and took a deep breath. In Jiang Mingyuan's invisible company, she felt a little bit of spiritual comfort.

Shen Qingyue pushed open the bathroom door and saw Jiang Mingyuan still standing quietly outside the door. A trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes.

She said softly: "Mingyuan, thank you."

Jiang Mingyuan saw Shen Qingyue's appearance and smiled softly: "It's okay, Qingyue. Are you feeling better?"

Shen Qingyue nodded. Although her face was still a little pale, the panic in her eyes was gone: "Much better."

Shen Qingyue's answer made Jiang Mingyuan feel a little relieved. He could feel that although Shen Qingyue was still a little nervous, she had calmed down a lot after taking a bath. He suggested gently: "It's very late now, let's go to bed early." (End of Chapter)
