(2)_1 A faint, almost imperceptible smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
Realizing his foolishness, Gu Mochen’s lips curled into a mocking smile.
He stretched out his slender fingers to rub his forehead and turned to open the car door but heard a loud ‘bang’ from behind him, furrowing his brows.
don’t cry, you are a man!”
Gu Mochen turned around to find the delicate voice of a little girl, insisting she was a man.
His gaze settled on the little girl not far away, clutching a piggy bank.
The little girl’s face was exquisitely pretty, her eyes twinkling like stars, watery and clear.
Wearing a cutesy pink princess dress, she looked just like an angel.
Possibly hurt from the fall, she frowned deeply, on the verge of tears yet holding them back stubbornly.
This display of obstinacy inadvertently brought to his mind Jian Ran, with her small palm-sized face.
With just a single glance, Gu Mochen felt as if his heart was being tightly gripped, and he took the initiative to lift the little one from the ground.
The little one was very light…
The scent on her body was pleasant, like a chubby, milk-fed baby.
Tang Bao was in so much pain, but looking up at Gu Mochen, he couldn’t help but be awestruck.
Tang Bao couldn’t help but swallow.
Um, just a bit more handsome than the boy…
This handsome uncle was the first person she thought was more handsome than the boy.
“Uncle, are you so handsome that you have no friends?”
Gu Mochen’s lips curved slightly at the girl’s words.
He carefully checked her knees, and after making sure there was no issue, he said softly.
“What nonsense, little girl.”
His gaze fell on the piggy bank in the little one’s hands, and once more softening his voice.
“Why are you out alone so late?”
“Um, mommy is sick, and I want to buy medicine for her…
Uncle, do you think I have enough money?”
The little girl appeared to be about three, such a young child being so sensible moved Gu Mochen slightly.
“How much money is in there?”
listen, it’s so jingly.”
Tang Bao happily shook her piggy bank, telling Gu Mochen how much money was inside.
Worried that Gu Mochen wouldn’t believe her, she poured all the money from her piggy bank into her palm.
Some coins fell to the ground.
She crouched down to pick them up, her hand full, smiling brightly.
Gu Mochen looked carefully…
most of it was ten-cent coins, with very few one-yuan coins, totaling 5 yuan and 20 cents…
“5 yuan and 20 cents.”
“Hehe, isn’t it a lot?”
The little one’s bright eyes were sparkling, so very bright.
With such filial piety towards her mother, Gu Mochen simply couldn’t bear to tell her the harsh truth.
Why did they let you out so late to buy medicine by yourself?
Where’s your father?”
When asked by Gu Mochen about her father, Tang Bao’s expression became a little subdued.
“Um, I don’t know, I don’t have a daddy!
Mommy says daddy is busy with work and can’t come back to be with me, so I’ve never seen my daddy.
do you think my daddy has passed away?
Xiaoming says if someone doesn’t show up for so long, they’re either gone or…
or they’ve changed their heart!”
