Qin Yinan put the light away to grab his phone. He glanced at the caller ID before answering it. He was about to answer the call with the usual ‘Song Song’ when a childish voice drifted through the line. “Ankle... Unkle Yinan...”
It was Little Sesa. She was already two years old, but she was still having difficulty pronouncing her words, like how uncle would be twisted into ankle or unkle.
“Little Sesa, why are you still up so late at night?”
“Just ho...” Little Sesa answered before saying sothing completely irrelevant. “...I saw... Unkle Ma...”
Her words faltered. Qin Yinan assud that she was talking about ‘her uncle’s mama’, thus referring to his own mother. He smiled gently and asked, “Did your grandma give you so sweets to eat?”
“Not Grandma, Ankle Ma...”
What is ‘ankle ma’? Qin Yinan frowned with confusion. As he was about to ask Little Sesa for more details, Song Qingchun’s gentle voice ca through the phone. “Alright, Little Sesa, it’s your bed ti. Daddy will take you to your bedroom. Co, let Mommy talk to Uncle Yinan, okay?”
“Okay.” Little Sesa answered obediently, then she followed Song Qingchun’s advice and spoke into the phone. “Good night, Unkle Yinan!”
“Good night, Little Sesa...” Through the phone, Qin Yinan could hear Su Zhinian chase after Little Sesa as he corralled her into the bedroom. Then, there were so footsteps. There was a full minute of silence on the other end of the phone before her voice started again. “Brother Yinan, happy birthday.”
“Thank you,” he replied.
“Brother Yinan...” Song Qingchun called his na and then paused as if she didn’t know how to continue.
Qin Yinan didn’t press; he waited patiently. Half a minute later, Song Qingchun continued. “Brother Yinan, the Unkle Ma Little Sesa was talking about earlier is not Auntie Qin but...”
After another pause, Song Qingchun breathed out, “...Cheng Qingchong. When we took Little Sesa for dinner tonight, we ran into her.”
Qin Yinan had grown up with Song Qingchun. It was rare for her to talk to him in such serious tones. His heart quivered, and a very bad feeling soon crawled all over it. His instinct told him that what Song Qingchun was about to reveal to him was going to be so hidden secret.
Suddenly, he felt fear. His fingers that held the phone tightened with nervousness. After so ti, he replied with a “hmm”. He sounded calm, but internally, he was an emotional wreck. “What is it? Song Song, tell .”
“Brother Yinan... Do you know... Cheng Qingchong, she...” It was unclear whether it was too hard for Song Qingchun to voice her words or she was afraid that Qin Yinan might not be able to face the shock of the revelation, as she stamred, “...Do you know who she is with right now?”
The more she acted like this, the more nervous Qin Yinan beca. As the question left her lips, he urged, “Who?”
Even though they were an impossibility, he was weirdly interested in who Cheng Qingchong’s new man was.
On the phone, Song Qingchun was silent for a while before answering. Her voice was soft, but the words that she said were like thunder, shattering Qin Yinan’s eardrum.
“Jin Ze.”
