“Yueyue, sit down first.” Ming Ansheng gently tapped on Su Yue’s shoulders.
He straightened his back before turning around to Ming Zhongsheng.
The grandfather stood across facing his grandson.
Ming Zhongsheng sneered coldly as he snapped at Ming Ansheng. “I’m not here to look for you. I’m here for her.”
He pointed at Su Yue.
Su Yue pressed her palms against the couch before standing up slowly. She strode over to Ming Zhongsheng.
She bent her head to peer at the child that Ming Zhongsheng was holding hands with.
The child resembled Meiduo. But it was hard to tell from the features if Ming Ansheng was the father.
Although the child’s expression and aura resembled Ming Ansheng.
Su Yue seemed to have gotten the answer by looking at the child, but she couldn’t accept it.
She glanced at Ming Ansheng as she pointed at the child. “Uncle Ming, is this child yours?”
If he denied, she would choose to believe him.
She could pretend that this child wasn’t his as she loved him too much. She would forget his past and choose not to mention it ever again.
If only he denied.
Ming Ansheng bowed his head and clammed up. After a long while, he gazed at Su Yue and explained, “Yueyue, before yesterday, I really had no idea…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Su Yue interrupted by waving her hand. She shook her head. “Don’t follow me. I need to be alone.”
She raised her feet and turned to run.
“Yueyue!” Ming Ansheng immediately bolted after her, ignoring Ming Zhongsheng.
Su Yue sprinted to the elevator and the doors were open.
She entered and pressed to close the elevator.
Ming Ansheng was late by just a second. He frantically pressed the elevator button for the next one.
When he reached the ground level, he was too late to catch Su Yue.
The elevator that she was in had gone up once more.
“Did you see where she went?”
Ming Ansheng exited the building and his eyes darted around only to find out that Su Yue was nowhere in sight. He grabbed one of the security guards.
The security guard pointed to the left and replied, “She ran off in that direction.”
Ming Ansheng instantly ran in that direction. “Yueyue!” he yelled.
He yelled as he searched for the tiny figure. But Su Yue seemed to have vanished into thin air and there was no sight of her.
“Yueyue, you promised me that you would help me put on my tie every morning…” Ming Ansheng muttered as he hung his head.
He turned around and his footsteps seemed as though they had lost their soul.
He hung his arms limply by the sides, looking like he had lost all hope.
He was wearing only a thin shirt and the brutally cold winds attacked him. He looked downcast and disheartened.
Su Yue appeared silently from behind a bush as she watched the man totter. She recalled what the man said just now.
‘I will help you with your tie every morning…’
Her tears gushed out and she covered her mouth before she turned around.
‘Beibei, call Daddy.’
‘Daddy.’
Meiduo was his unforgettable first love, and they even had a child together.
They even had a child together.
Su Yue covered her mouth and stopped herself from crying.
The man suddenly turned around and gazed at the tiny figure who had turned into a tiny dot from a distance. He slowly clenched his fists.
His expression was stoic.
After some time, he sighed helplessly.
…
There was a man and a woman sitting at the corner of a cafe. The rest of the tables were empty.
The afternoon sunlight entered through the glass windows and enveloped them.
