The sensitive Xiao Bai seed to sense sothing was off with Ye Anxin, and lifted his head to look at her. Seeing Ye Anxin’s reddened eyes, he hurriedly asked with concern, "Mom, are you unhappy because I don’t want to see Grandpa and Grandma?"
Ye Anxin quickly shook her head repeatedly, wiped her eyes, and smiled, "No, no, Xiao Bai, don’t overthink it!"
Xiao Bai looked at Ye Anxin skeptically, thought seriously for a mont, then sighed resignedly, "If you’re really unhappy, then I’ll go see them!"
Ye Anxin squatted down, gently stroking Xiao Bai’s fair skin, "Don’t worry, as long as you don’t want to, Mom won’t force you! Mom isn’t unhappy, I just feel sorry for Xiao Bai and feel guilty inside! If Mom hadn’t left you back then, my Xiao Bai wouldn’t be like this today! It’s Mom’s fault; I shouldn’t have been so selfish back then!" Unable to hold back, she pulled Xiao Bai into her embrace.
Xiao Bai patted Ye Anxin’s back with a heartache, comforting her, "I never blad you, and you don’t need to feel guilty! Even though you weren’t with , I was with you all the ti!"
"You were with ?" Ye Anxin released Xiao Bai, looking at him in confusion.
"Co with !" Xiao Bai nodded seriously, took Ye Anxin’s hand, and led her back to his room. He then opened a wardrobe drawer, took out a few sets of clothes on top, revealing a drawer full of photos!
Ye Anxin squatted beside the drawer, looking at the full drawer of photos, her entire body trembled slightly. She reached out and picked up the photos one by one!
Seeing herself in various poses and emotions in the photos, tears uncontrollably stread down her face.
"There’s more!" Fearing Ye Anxin might think the photos weren’t enough, he opened another drawer, removing the clothes covering it, revealing another drawer full of photos!
Gazing at the photos, Ye Anxin’s lips quivered as she choked out, "Xiao Bai, these photos...?"
"So of these photos I took myself, so were taken by Dad, and so by a detective! In the past five years, every ti I miss Mom, Dad would take to Han City, and we’d sit in a black sedan secretly watching Mom! We’d secretly take photos whenever Mom wasn’t paying attention! At ho, when Dad was busy and couldn’t take to see Mom, I’d look at the photos! Actually, for these five years, I’ve always been with you!"
Xiao Bai pulled a tissue from the bedside table, wiping away the tears at the corners of Ye Anxin’s eyes!
However, no matter how much he wiped, the tears wouldn’t stop, and in the end, the more he wiped, the more they fell!
"Black sedan?" Ye Anxin frowned, searching her mind carefully!
A black sedan? Could it be the black sedan she saw outside her window after getting drunk?
Could it be that Uncle and Xiao Bai were sitting inside watching her, while she was completely unaware that her son was so close by!
Seeing that he couldn’t dry all of Ye Anxin’s tears, Xiao Bai hurriedly said with concern, "Mom, don’t cry! You really don’t have to feel guilty! In these five years, even though you weren’t with , I was with you! Besides, you’d often return to Jin City and secretly watch ! I know, as long as you care for , it’s enough!"
"Xiao Bai!" Hearing Xiao Bai’s mature and sensible words, Ye Anxin couldn’t hold back any longer, pulling him into her arms!
She truly owed him too much; in these five years, Uncle and Xiao Bai gave her so much, yet she was entirely unaware and resented Uncle for five years!
It turned out that in these five years, they never left or abandoned her; instead, she left and abandoned them!
Uncle clearly loved her so much, missed her so much, that he’d rather secretly hide in a corner with Xiao Bai, just to watch her, never explaining, never taking her back!
If she hadn’t agreed to Professor Su’s marriage proposal, they might have continued to be at a stalemate like this forever! Uncle would never lower his head, having the butler trick her back ho!
If it weren’t for the child in her belly, Uncle wouldn’t have gotten drunk, wouldn’t have revealed his true feelings to her, and they might never have resolved their issues in this lifeti!
Her Uncle, her Xiao Bai!
It was she who was unfair to them! It was her inferiority, lack of self-confidence, and distrust that left Xiao Bai without a mother to accompany him in his growth for five years!
Seeing Ye Anxin crying so heartbreakingly, Xiao Bai was at a loss, wanting to pat her back but fearing he’d use too much force, leaving his hands awkwardly at her back, blaming himself, "Mom, please don’t cry! I thought seeing the photos would make you happy; if I knew they would make you cry, I wouldn’t have shown them to you!"
Knowing Xiao Bai was at a loss, Ye Anxin released him, wiped her tears, took a deep breath, and sobbed, "Mom’s tears are of joy, not sadness! I’m happy, happy that in these five years, Xiao Bai didn’t abandon Mom; you waited for Mom to co back! Xiao Bai, Mom truly loves you!"
"Mom! I love you too!" he said, his cheeks flushing red as he imdiately lowered his head shyly.
Amused by his manner, Ye Anxin continued to laugh through her tears, wiping them away with her hands.
At the mont, the door to the room swung open! The tall silhouette of Mu Beiting appeared at the doorway!
Xiao Bai and Ye Anxin simultaneously looked towards the door!
Seeing the tears on Ye Anxin’s face, Mu Beiting’s handso brows furrowed tightly. He strode over, pulling Ye Anxin’s kneeling body from the floor and enclosed her in his arms, wiping her tears away with his big, solid hand, asking displeasedly, "Did Xiao Bai make you cry?"
Fearing that Mu Beiting would bla Xiao Bai, Ye Anxin hastened to shake her head in denial, "No, no! It wasn’t him! It was !"
"Why did you suddenly start crying for no reason?" Mu Beiting frowned tighter, evidently not believing her words.
Ye Anxin pressed her lips together, fighting back tears, stood on her tiptoes, and pressed her tear-drenched red lips to Mu Beiting’s beautiful thin lips, chokingly whispering, "Uncle, thank you for not giving up on ! For giving such a sensible son!"
Mu Beiting extended his tongue, licking the spot Ye Anxin just kissed, his brows tightly knit into a ’Chuan’ character, "Salty! I don’t like it!"
"Pff...!" Ye Anxin couldn’t help but burst into laughter, squinting her tear-filled eyes and smiling, "Uncle, even though it’s salty, my heart is really sweet! Really, my heart has never felt so sweet before! If it weren’t for Xiao Bai telling , I wouldn’t have known that you’ve done so much for all these years!"
Hearing this, Mu Beiting shot a sharp glance at Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai instinctively took a step back, vigilantly watching Mu Beiting.
Ye Anxin cupped Mu Beiting’s handso face in both hands, forcibly bringing his face closer again, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed his lips!
As her red lips touched Mu Beiting’s thin lips, Xiao Bai very consciously lowered his head.
