The little girl’s voice was so soft and sweet that Old Man Gong’s heart softened instantly. He wanted to hold a grandchild for many years, but had never been able to do so. Now that he was being tugged on by such a strange little girl, he felt that it was very funny.
“Yingying, how do you want me to help you?”
“Grandfather, I just flew over from Singapore with my aunty. But my aunty is still in the airport hall. I ran out on my own. Could you bring me back to the airport hall? My aunty will definitely still be waiting for me there.” Xiao Yingying spoke very slowly, but every word was very clear.
Old Man Gong smiled kindly. “Aren’t you afraid that grandfather will take you away?”
Xiao Yingying looked at Old Man Gong and shook her head. “No, grandfather is a good person!”
“Alright, grandfather will bring you there now. The airport hall is just in front.” As he spoke, Old Man Gong held Xiao Yingying’s little hand.
Xiao Yingying carried the doll and followed behind him.
The butler stood by the car door and looked at the backs of the old and the young. He knew that his master’s desire to carry a grandchild was back and he couldn’t help but smiled helplessly.
…
In the airport hall.
Xiao Yingying looked around for Zuo Ying’s figure, but she could not find it.
“Aunty, Aunty, where are you?” Xiao Yingying was a little afraid. Her small cherry-coloured mouth shrunk and bean-sized tear drops fell down from her eyes.
She was so sad that she cried.
Old Man Gong did not expect this little girl to cry so easily. He immediately squatted down and coaxed her frantically, “Xiao Yingying, don’t cry. Aunty may have gone out to look for you. Don’t be anxious. grandfather will help you find Aunty.”
Xiao Yingying wiped her tears with her small hands. “But, what if you can’t find Aunty? I want Mommy. I love my mommy so much…”
Xiao Yingying said as she sobbed.
Old Man Gong hugged her in his arms. “I won’t, I promise I will definitely help you find her!”
Xiao Yingying didn’t believe him, so her tears continued to fall down.
Old Man Gong liked little children very much. He often visited his friends’ houses to tease their grandchildren, so he was very good at coaxing little children. He immediately carried Xiao Yingying to the ice cream shop and bought her a colourful ice cream.
“Yingying, this is for you to eat. Don’t cry.”
Looking at the colourful ice cream, Xiao Yingying quickly stopped crying. “Can I really eat it?”
“Really.”
Xiao Yingying stuck out her little tongue and licked the ice cream. She cried again.
Old Man Gong was anxious. “Yingying, why are you crying again? Is the ice cream not good?”
“It’s delicious, so delicious…”
“Then why are you still crying?”
“Because I want to give my mommy a bite of this delicious ice cream too…”
Old Man Gong’s eyes filled up with tenderness. Whose child was this? She had been brought up so well, such a mommy’s darling.
“Wah!” Before Old Man Gong could say anything, Xiao Yingying burst into tears.
Old Man Gong: “… Yingying, what’s wrong again?”
“I suddenly remembered my mommy said that I can’t eat food from strangers. Did grandfather poison me?”
Old Man Gong: “…”
Xiao Yingying’s cries attracted the attention of many people. Old Man Gong was afraid that if this continued, someone would treat him as a human trafficker and send him to the police station, so he decided to bring Xiao Yingying home.
“Yingying, let’s go back with grandfather first. Don’t worry, as long as your aunty is still here, grandfather will help you find her very soon!”
…
In the apartment, in the kitchen.
After Gong Yi was satisifed, he finally let go of Bai Beibei. Bai Beibei’s small face was pale and her forehead was full of cold sweat. She hurriedly used her clothes to cover her snow-white body.
Glancing sideways, she saw that Gong Yi had already abandoned her and went upstairs. He probably went for a shower.
Bai Beibei gritted her teeth and she felt very sad.
They were clearly doing the most intimate thing lovers could do, but she felt that he was so far away from her, and that they were drifting further and further away.
At this moment, a series of ringtones rang. She was calling.
It was Zuo Ying.
“Hello, Sister Ying.”
“Hello, Beibei, what have you been doing today? I’ve called you so many times but I couldn’t get through. I’m dying of anxiety.” Zuo Ying’s anxiously sounded.
“Sister Ying, I’m sorry, I had something urgent to do…”
“Beibei, Yingying is gone!”
Bai Beibei’s pupils contracted. “Sister Ying, what are you talking about?”
“Beibei, it’s all my fault. This morning, I brought Yingying here on a plane from Singapore. In the airport hall, I went to look at the map. When I turned around, Yingying was gone. I searched the entire airport hall, but I couldn’t find her. Beibei, what should we do? Yingying is still so young.”
Bai Beibei panicked as Zuo Ying’s words echoed in her ears. Ying Ying was gone. Ying Ying was gone!
Her Xiao Yingying was only three years old. Yingying was everything in her life!
It was useless to blame her now. Bai Beibei forced herself to take a deep breath and remained calm. “Sister Ying, don’t be anxious. Where are you now? I’ll go find you.”
“Alright, Beibei. Come quickly.” Zuo Ying told Bai Beibei the exact address.
Bai Beibei quickly put on her clothes and ran outside.
“Where are you going?” At this moment, a sinister voice rang out from behind her.
Bai Beibei turned around to look. Gong Yi had changed into a clean white shirt and was standing on the stairs. His handsome features were like that of a painting.
However, his expression was very gloomy. He was staring at her.
“I have something urgent to attend to. I need to go out for a while.” Bai Beibei said as she opened the apartment door.
“You’re not allowed to go out!”
Bai Beibei was a little tired and helpless. “Gong Yi, can you stop fooling around? I really have something urgent to attend to right now. Something extremely urgent. I need to go out for a while!”
Gong Yi did not understand what urgent matter could be more important than him. Could it be that her lover from Singapore had found her and she was rushing to go on a date?
“Bai Beibei, don’t make me repeat myself. I forbid you from going out! If you dare to take a step out of this door today, then it’s really over between us!”
It’s really over..
Suddenly, Bai Beibei did not understand if there was still a tomorrow in their current state. He was about to get married and she had Xiao Yingying. It was destined that they could not be together.
It was better for the pain to be short-lived rather than long. If this continued, it would only make everyone unhappy. It was better to cut off all ties.
“Gong Yi, I wish you happiness.”
Bai Beibei opened the door of the apartment and ran out.
Gong Yi froze on the spot. He clenched his fists until they made cracking sounds. If he could, he really wanted to perish together with this woman.
She left again.
She had actually abandoned him once again.
He tried so hard to grab onto her, but she was like sand in his hands; the tighter he grabbed her, the faster she would escape.
His heart was empty again.
Gong Yi looked down at the ointment in his hands. Just now, he found out that her lower region was torn. He went upstairs to get the ointment for her, but it turns out that she didn’t need it.
…
Bai Beibei found Zuo Ying. Now that she had no other choice, Bai Beibei chose to call the police.
In the police station, Bai Beibei’s face was pale as she reported all the information about Xiao Yingying. She sat on the chair in a daze.
“Beibei, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. If anything happens to Xiao Yingying, I don’t want to live anymore!” Zuo Ying scolded herself.
