Ming Ansheng’s mother gazed at her son and her eyes glistened.
Ming Ansheng gazed at the boy for a while before he bent and stroked his hair.
He didn’t speak as he turned to Aunt Wu. He gave her a meaningful look.
Aunt Wu immediately carried the little boy.
Ming Ansheng got into his car and ignited the engine.
…
Su Yan came home after work, and the first thought that came to his mind when he saw a pair of female shoes was that Su Yue was back.
Furthermore, only Su Yue had the key to his place.
He frowned, looking puzzled.
Why was the girl back today?
Su Yan changed out of his shoes and entered the living room. The lights in the living room were switched on, but there was no sight of Su Yue.
The bathroom’s door was ajar but no one was inside.
“Yueyue?” he yelled and strode towards Su Yue’s room.
He knocked on the door.
No one answered, and Su Yan sensed that something was amiss. He tried to twist the doorknob.
It was locked!
He knocked once more. “Yueyue, are you inside?”
No matter how he many times he knocked or yelled, no one responded. He began to get anxious.
He scurried to get the spare key to unlock the door.
The windows were drawn close, and the whole room was dark. He switched on the lights.
There was a small lump on the bed and under the blanket, and it was definitely Su Yue.
Su Yan walked over and bent his back. He gently tapped Su Yue. “Yueyue, are you alright?”
Su Yan could hear Su Yue’s sob and he frowned. He pulled the blanket away with force.
We huddled Su Yue into a ball as she sobbed loudly.
“Yueyue.” Su Yan sat down and peered at Su Yue.
“Brother.” Su Yue turned to look at Su Yan, and her face was filled with tears.
Su Yan’s heart was aching. “What happened?”
“He.. he has a child,” Su Yue answered in a choked voice.
Su Yan knew that she was referring to Ming Ansheng, and his fingers tightened its grip on the blanket. His veins were throbbing.
Su Yue threw herself at him and hugged him tightly. “I really… like him.”
But he had a child, and the child was his and Meiduo’s.
What should she do?
Su Yan hugged Su Yue back for a while before gently pushing her away.
He had no idea how long she had been crying, but her eyes were red and swollen. He used his palms to wipe off the tears on her face.
He gently coaxed her, “Don’t cry anymore. Calm down first.”
Su Yue bit her lips and nodded.
“Go and wash your face.” Su Yan grabbed Su Yue’s elbow and supported her.
Su Yue put on her bedroom slippers and obediently went to the bathroom.
She stood before the basin and peered at her reflection. Her swollen eyes were glistening with tears once more.
The sounds of the water complemented her tears.
On the right side of her neck was a love bite that Ming Ansheng had left her after last night.
Last night, he even embraced her tightly and asked her to marry him.
She shouldn’t be thinking of him at the moment. She would only get more upset and distraught. She scooped the water and splashed it repeatedly on her face.
Until her tears stopped flowing.
…
“Is there anyone at home?”
Su Yue opened the bathroom’s door and heard Xin Yanting’s voice.
She turned in the direction of the voice and met Xin Yanting’s eyes.
