When she received Wu Lili’s call, Su Ruowan was walking out of the supermarket.
“Hello, Sister Wu.” Su Ruowan had a bag slung over her shoulder and was carrying two large bags of heavy objects. She could only use her left hand to answer the phone with some difficulty.
“Ruowan, why didn’t you call? I was worried that something happened on your end, so I didn’t dare to call. Is your mother alright?”
“It’s alright now.” Su Ruowan smiled,” Oh right, I’ll transfer the money you lent me back to you later.”
“Huh?”” You have money now?” Wu Lili asked in confusion.”
Su Ruowan pursed her lips.” En.”
“Could it be Jing Muchen?”
Wu Lili guessed it right away. Then, she said,” Ha, so you’re a pretty good ex-wife. You’re pretty and rich. You’re a rare gem. The key is that you’re quite thoughtful.” If it’s too late, you might as well consider it.”
Su Ruowan walked slowly, her eyes looking ahead, but she seemed to be out of focus…
Ever since she told Wu Lili about what happened five years ago, Wu Lili would take every opportunity to persuade her to go back to her old ways. Sometimes, it really made Su Ruowan not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Ruowan? Ruowan?” On the other end of the phone, Wu Lili couldn’t hear Su Ruowan’s response and shouted anxiously.
“All!” Su Ruowan came back to her senses. Seeing that they were about to reach the hospital, she said,” Alright, Sister Wu, I won’t talk to you anymore. I still have something to do here, so 1’11 hang up first.””
“Hey, hey!”
Su Ruowan ignored Wu Lili’s protests and hung up the phone.
Casually stuffing her phone back into the pocket of her jeans, Su Ruowan stopped in her tracks and switched one of the bags in her right hand to another. Who knew that at this moment, there was a sudden force coming from behind. A middle-aged man’s figure quickly passed by her left hand and quickly walked foward.
The bag fell to the ground, and some of the toiletries inside spilled out.
Su Ruowan bent down and stuffed the things back into the bag one by one. Then, she got up and carried the two big bags of things back to the hospital.
When she returned to the ward, Su Ruowan realized that her phone was gone.
She recalled carefully and realized that it should be the middle-aged man from earlier.
He just didn’t expect thieves to care about an old Android smartphone.
As a result, she missed Jing Yanxi’s calls one after another.
Jing Yanxi was brought back to the Jing Mansion by Li Muchen.
When Old Master Jing saw his beautiful great-grandson, his mood suddenly improved. He even let go of Li Muchen’s act of picking Jing Yanxi up at home and returning to the company immediately. He held Jing Yanxi’s hand and chatted happily on the sofa in the living room.
“Yanyan, school is starting soon, right? Have you finished your summer homework?”
Out of habit, the old man began to care about his great-grandson’s studies.
Jing Yanxi blinked.” Great-grandpa, there’s no summer homework in kindergarten!””
“Oh.” Grandpa Jing chuckled.” Your father and your uncle were both primary school students when they were your age. Sigh, I’m getting old and muddle-headed.”
“Dad.” Li Menting took out a fruit plate from the kitchen and placed it in front of Jing Yanxi.” Didn’t you say that children should have an innocent and happy childhood? That’s why Yanyan went to school so late.””
Old Master Jing rolled his eyes at his daughter-in-law and replied angrily,” I was forced to do this because of your two sons. 1 went to school so early, but look at the results. I was only a little cute when I was a few years old. Since I was a teenager, I became more and more reserved. I don’t even know how to date and I never bring girls home…” Boss finally got married through a blind date, but who knew….”
