“Maybe she’s doing well now and doesn’t want you to disturb her anymore. Li Jingran, people have to move on.”
Li Jingran snorted coldly. “What do you know?”
Song Qingchen stood up helplessly.
He was a doctor, but he could not save his love.
Even an arrogant and rational man like Li Jingran would be trapped by love. What was the use of his words of comfort.
All of this could only be left to time.
Song Qingchen went upstairs and happened to bump into Lin Jiannan coming out of her room.
Seeing that the girl was wearing a thin coat and running out, his gaze became stern. “Didn’t I tell you to wear more clothes?”
Lin Jiannan pursed her lips. “It was very hot when you hugged me to sleep just now.”
“Right, why did you suddenly go out?”
Song Qingchen looked downstairs. “Here, director Li hid here to get drunk on his wedding day. I had to stop him.”
Lin Jiannan was shocked. After she reacted, she felt a sense of loss.
“Wanwan and director Li are clearly in love, but why can’t they be together smoothly?”
Lin Jiannan sighed heavily. She was also in a bad mood that day.
There were many times that she wanted to take out her phone and send a message to Xu Wanwan.
She typed a large paragraph of text on the screen and deleted it bit by bit.
What was Wanwan doing abroad at the moment? She probably didn’t want to be disturbed.
“Alright, don’t worry about other people’s matters.”Song Qingchen hugged Lin Jiannan and urged, “Go back and put on your clothes before coming out.”
Lin Jiannan snorted lightly. “You’re clearly the one who likes to meddle in other people’s affairs.”
—
It was late at night overseas.
Xu Wanwan lay on the small bed in the rented room alone. The cold moonlight reflected on the headboard of the bed. She narrowed her eyes and suddenly thought of many things from the past.
The memories of the past surged into her heart bit by bit. Her thoughts were like wild weeds that grew crazily, twining around her heart and blood vessels.
Xu Wanwan pressed on her chest, unable to describe the pain inside.
She took a deep breath and tried hard to adjust her emotions. She got up from the bed and poured herself a cup of warm milk.
After she finished drinking the milk, she leaned against the window and looked at the Moon.
She felt that the foreign moon had lost some of its charm.
Xu Wanwan withdrew her gaze in disappointment and took out a pregnancy test from the drawer. When she saw the results on it, her eyes became slightly moist.
It was just one time, and she had a child with Li Jingran.
Fate really played a trick on people.
She had just gone to a foreign school to report and already found out that she was pregnant.
The school gave her two choices: abort the child or drop out of school.
Xu Wanwan had hesitated before, but every time she placed her hands on her lower abdomen, she could feel the blood flowing inside.
This was the child she and Li Jingran shared.
How could she bear to do that.
Xu Wanwan touched her belly with one hand, and her eyes softened.
“Baby, don’t worry. I will work hard and give you a better life.”
Three years later.
A soft little boy held a toy in one hand and a phone in the other. He ran to Xu Wanwan and said, “Mommy, Auntie Lin Called You!”
Xu Wanwan was coming out of the bathroom when she saw the little boy tiptoeing and lifting the cell phone. She smiled gently and squatted down to pick him up.
“How did you know it was Auntie Lin?”
“Of course, I learned it every time mommy called! I’m very smart!”
Xu Wanwan smiled and scratched his nose, then took the phone.
“Jiannan, why are you calling at this time?”
Lin Jiannan was hiding in the bathroom at home. He lowered his voice and said, “Wanwan, I’m getting married to Song Qingchen. Can you come back to my wedding?”
Xu Wanwan sat on the bed and answered the phone. There was a soft and cute little ball lying next to her. That pair of chubby hands held her slender wrist tightly and pricked up her ears to eavesdrop.
She pushed little treasure to the side and when she spoke again, her eyes were filled with surprise. “Are you really getting married? has the wedding date been set?”
“It’s been set a long time ago, but Song Qingchen was very slow and insisted on preparing a perfect wedding for me. He dragged it out until now.”Lin Jiannan’s grumbling voice came from the other end of the phone.
It had been three whole years. Xu Wanwan would still feel sad occasionally when she thought of the past.
If she had not been separated from Li Jingran, they would have been married long ago.
Lin Jiannan asked again, “Wanwan, you’ve been abroad for so long. It’s time for you to come back.”
“Since I’m getting married this time, why don’t you come back and let me see Little Treasure, okay?”
Without waiting for Xu Wanwan to agree, little treasure said excitedly, “Mommy, I want to see Auntie Lin too. Is she good-looking?”
Xu Wanwan could not stand Little Tuan’s harassment and compromised, “Okay, send me the address. I’ll make a trip back when I have time.”
“That’s Great!”Lin Jiannan’s voice was even filled with excitement.
Xu Wanwan paused for a few seconds. “Li… Jingran will be there too, right?”
“Wanwan, there’s something I’ve been holding back for a long time. I’ve always wanted to tell you.”Lin Jiannan sighed, “Director Li hasn’t been doing well these past few years. Ever since you left, he rarely went home. After old master Li passed away, he broke off his marriage with Zhou Lin.”
“He’s actually been waiting for you.”
Xu Wanwan was stunned and said calmly, “It’s all in the past now.”
“Yeah, it’s all in the past. There’s no need to mention the past anymore,”Lin Jiannan said with a smile. “You can be considered to have a happy family now. You found a man who loves you and even gave birth to a cute baby. How wonderful is that?”
Xu Wanwan smiled faintly, but her heart was empty.
All these years, in order to hide Little Treasure’s identity, she had no choice but to let her work partner accompany her in an act.
Lin Jiannan was the only one who knew that she had a child, but she only knew that the child was someone else’s.
“Mommy, are you going to take me to see Auntie Lin?”Little Treasure suddenly threw himself into Xu Wanwan’s arms, his face full of joy.
“Yes, Auntie Lin is my best friend. She’s getting married, so of course I have to go back.”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
A gentle and refined middle-aged man walked in. He was holding Xiao Bao’s toy in his hand, and his eyes were gentle. “Yanzhi, you don’t Even Know That You Lost Your Things?”
Xu Yanzhi rushed to the middle-aged man’s arms. “Daddy, you’re Here!”
“Okay, go out and play with Auntie for a while. I’ll talk to your mother for a while. Is that okay?”Gu Jin asked as he rubbed the little guy’s head.
“Of course it’s Okay!”
The little guy said as he hopped out of the room.
Gu Jin closed the door and asked calmly, “I heard you say on the phone that you’re going back to China?”
“Yes, my good friend is getting married, so it’s only right for me to go back.”Xu Wanwan picked up the toy that little treasure had left behind and said casually, “It just so happens that I’m done with work for a while. Why Don’t you come back with me to take a look?”
“Sure,”Gu Jinshen agreed immediately. “Will I run into your old friend?”
Xu Wanwan’s heart sank, and she said as if nothing had happened, “Maybe.”
Gu Jinshen had grown up abroad since he was young, so he did not have any hometown complex. He had agreed to accompany Xu Wanwan back to the country because he was purely curious.
He wanted to know what kind of man could make Xu Wanwan dream about him for so many years.
