Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Five years later, at the Lin City Airport.
âMommy, whereâs Godma? Donât tell me sheâs late again?â a little boy asked, dragging his small suitcase and holding his motherâs hand.
The young mother had her hair up in a high ponytail and was wearing a T-shirt and jeans. She looked fresh. She looked around, trying to find a familiar figure among the crowd.
âWe should find them in no time!â the young mother said with uncertainty.
The little boy sighed helplessly, âWhen can Godmother be more reliable? Seriously, she hasnât grown up after so many years!â
Listening to the little boyâs adult-like tone, the young mother helplessly lowered her head to look at him. âYou speak as if youâve grown up!â
The little boy adjusted his sunglasses.
âIâm already five!â
âYes, yes, yes! Youâre already five years old! Youâre a little adult!â
A voice sounded from behind the two of them. In the next second, the boy was already being carried.
He cried out in surprise, then started giggling.
âGodma, youâre finally here. I missed you so much!â the little boy chuckled at the person in front of him.
âHmph! I heard all the bad things you said about me just now!â That person grabbed the little boyâs ear and said indignantly.
The boy laughed as he struggled, and the two of them fell into a tangle.
âAlright! Stop fooling around!â The young mother smiled and watched the two bicker for a while before reminding, âMu Xiao, donât you have a date later?â
The two of them finally stopped fighting. Mu Xiao stood up straight and stretched out his arms. âYe Shu, youâre finally back!â
The young mother, Ye Shu, smiled widely and hugged Mu Xiao.
âLetâs go! Little Ye Xun, Iâll take you to your new residence!â As Mu Xiao spoke, she held the boyâs hand and strode forward.
Ye Shu gazed at the big and small figures in front of her and turned to look at the airport lobby.
âIâm finally back!â
Mu Xiao drove the mother and son to an apartment not far from the city center.
âIsnât the rent of this place very expensive?â
Ye Shu looked at the tall building in front of her. The security of the door made it seem like the price was not cheap.
âDonât worry! My boss asked me to find someone to help look after the house. Since you donât have anywhere to go for the time being, staying here is just right!â Mu Xiao patted her chest and said.
Although Ye Shu felt uneasy, this was the only thing she could do.
After Ye Shu and her mother went abroad, the old house was taken back by the Ye family because it belonged to their father, Ye Qing.Now that they were returning to the country, they did not have a place to stay. She could only ask Mu Xiao to help with the arrangement. When Ye Shu found a job and settled down, she would think of an alternative!
In order to treat Lu Fen and raise Ye Xun, she had spent the money she received that year. Ye Shu was unfamiliar with people and places overseas and did not have any skills that she could rely on. She could only return to China first and think of a solution.
Moreover, she was still pining for her other child. No matter what, she wanted to see that child again and see that he was doing well!
âWhen is your mom coming back?â Mu Xiao asked after helping Ye Shu put his luggage away.
âAfter I find a job and settle down,â Ye Shu said and carried Ye Xun to the bed.
Mu Xiao looked at Ye Xunâs delicate face and asked, âAre you planning to look for your other child?â
âYesâ¦â Ye Shu nodded slightly.â I just want to see him. â
Mu Xiao sighed and said, âBut Ye Xun doesnât look like you.â
âDoes he look like his father?â Mu Xiao guessed with uncertainty. âFrom the looks of it, his father should be quite good-looking!â
Ye Shu tried hard to recall the faint silhouette in the darkness that night.
Then, she gave up and shook her head. âI canât rememberâ¦â
âAlright! You should rest! Iâm leaving first!â Mu Xiao said as she got up and prepared to leave. âIâll think of something for you to do!â
Ye Shu hugged Mu Xiao again. âMu Xiao, thank you so much!â
Mu Xiao patted Ye Shuâs back and said, âDonât stand on ceremony with me! I really have to go! Iâm going to be late!â
Ye Shu smiled as she watched Mu Xiao rush out of the door and towards the elevator.
Ye Shu leaned against the door and looked at the unfamiliar environment in front of her. She crossed his arms and tried to pull herself together.
âLetâs start over!â
