These days, Xia Yangyang’s mind is still often haunted by the image of that man.
Especially that night at the beef noodle restaurant, his calm and composed face.
Xia Yangyang has too many questions in her heart.
Why would soone like Gu Qichen be eating beef noodles alone on Snack Street?
What Xia Yangyang is most worried about is still that child.
Ever since she found out that she still had a child, it felt like a natural bond had ford deep within her heart.
It’s manageable during busy days.
But whenever she has free ti, Xia Yangyang would always wonder where the child is now, what he is doing.
Does he... miss her at all.
Xia Yangyang still vividly rembers the first ti the child called her "Mom" and the shock it brought.
And as ti passes, that voice becos clearer.
Xia Yangyang feels that she truly misses the child.
Xia Yangyang now works at the Huayang Newspaper Agency.
Although she is just a small assistant, her daily tasks are plentiful.
She mostly has to work overti.
It coincidentally happens that Lu Haotian has started his business on Snack Street.
Most of the business there is at night.
It gets particularly busy in the evenings.
If Xia Yangyang isn’t working overti, she would go there early to help Lu Haotian.
If she is working overti, she goes directly there after work, just in ti to snag a bowl of tofu pudding as supper.
Today, Xia Yangyang finished work unusually early.
She originally planned to go directly to the university town.
But upon leaving the newspaper agency.
Xia Yangyang suddenly had a whimsical idea and went to Huangpu International Kindergarten.
Xia Ye goes to school there.
Because today’s interview work went smoothly, Xia Yangyang’s boss allowed her to leave work two hours early.
Thus, Xia Yangyang had the opportunity to co here.
When Xia Yangyang arrived.
It was just ti for the kindergarten to dismiss.
Actually, Xia Yangyang just wanted to take a glimpse.
No matter what, seeing that child would make Xia Yangyang feel content.
Xia Yangyang stood on the opposite side of the road at the bus stop.
Although a bit far, it directly faces the school gate.
So, Xia Yangyang could clearly see every child as they ca out.
Soon, couples of children were neatly lined up, led by the kindergarten teachers as they walked out.
The children were uniformly dressed in school uniforms, carrying the sa backpacks, and looked incredibly adorable.
However, with all the children dressed alike, it was hard to differentiate one from another.
Xia Yangyang carefully watched each person inside.
Xia Yangyang still didn’t see Xia Ye.
But just when Xia Yangyang thought she had missed him.
Suddenly, a little boy in one of the groups ran directly towards Xia Yangyang’s direction.
Xia Yangyang took a closer look and it was indeed Xia Ye.
Xia Yangyang didn’t see Xia Ye, but Xia Ye saw her first.
She didn’t know what she felt at that mont.
Xia Ye quickly crossed the street and ca up to Xia Yangyang.
Xia Ye’s voice was calm, like a little adult.
"Mom, did you co especially to see ?"
Xia Yangyang originally just wanted to take a secret peek.
With Xia Ye asking like this, Xia Yangyang didn’t know how to respond.
But since they had t, Xia Yangyang simply approached: "I just ca to see how you are doing... Are you okay lately?"
Xia Ye responded, "I’m fine, it’s just that dad is not doing very well."
Xia Yangyang’s heart skipped a beat.
She didn’t want to ask initially.
But she couldn’t help it: "What happened to your dad?"
