Chapter 7: Chapter 7: You're Back?
Just saying, how could Shanshan really do this to herself?
"I've been in Arica these past few years." Ye Xinluo spoke calmly.
Arica?
So that's it, no wonder this number is also from Arica.
So she has been in Arica these years.
"Then why didn't you contact ?"
Really can't understand why she just left for four years without any news.
"Sothing happened, there was no way."
"When you have ti, we should et and talk."
It's hard to explain over the phone, it's better to say it face to face.
"What?"
"Do you an you're back?"
Lan Shan's voice was a bit high-pitched, clearly, she was sowhat excited.
"Yes."
Ye Xinluo didn't deny it and nodded.
"Where are you? I'll co to find you now."
Just thinking about being able to see her soon made Lan Shan uncontrollably excited.
"No need, it's very late now. When you have ti, I'll co to find you."
Ye Xinluo glanced at the sky outside.
It's already so late, she didn't agree with Lan Shan coming to find her now.
"Then let's do tomorrow afternoon, I just happen to have ti tomorrow."
"Okay."
Without thinking, she agreed imdiately.
Just as well, she also had many things she wanted to tell Lan Shan.
"Alright, tomorrow afternoon at three, I'll wait for you at that coffee shop near Z University we used to go to often."
"Okay, it's late now, rest early."
The two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone,
Returning to bed and lying down, looking at the ceiling, but couldn't fall asleep.
About three minutes later, Ye Xinluo turned over.
Went through all the bits and pieces of being with Lan Shan in her mind.
Uncontrollably laughed.
Another three minutes passed, Ye Xinluo turned over again.
Who knows how many tis she turned until the first light of dawn appeared, and only then did Ye Xinluo feel sleepy and fell into a deep sleep.
After the call with Ye Xinluo, Lan Shan lay in bed.
Eyes closed, but couldn't fall asleep.
Having been busy all day, she was tired and sleepy, but one call from Ye Xinluo lifted her spirits.
Took out her phone from under the pillow to check the ti, it was only three in the morning.
Still over ten hours until the ti she agreed to et Xinluo.
But Lan Shan felt these hours were even longer than a decade...
In the end, there was no way, so she just lay in bed counting sheep.
One sheep...
Two sheep...
Three sheep...
Four sheep...
......
Not sure by how many sheep, but finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.
When Ye Xinluo woke up again, it was already ten in the morning.
Jingxi was not in bed, probably got up already.
She lifted the quilt, got out of bed, washed up briefly in the bathroom, and then left the room.
At this ti, Jingxi was sitting on the sofa watching cartoons.
Upon hearing movent, he glanced toward the doorway.
"Mommy is so lazy, still sleeping when the sun's up."
He pouted and said to Ye Xinluo with a look of disdain.
Ye Xinluo froze for a mont
This guy...
She sat down beside the little guy, pulling him into her arms.
"Jingxi, are you hungry? Mommy will make you breakfast."
"Mommy, it's already ten, nearly noon, shouldn't it be considered lunch?"
Uhh.
Alright then.
Ye Xinluo was embarrassed; why be so serious...
She awkwardly smiled...
"Then are you hungry? Mommy will make lunch for you."
"Jingxi just went to the kitchen to find sothing to eat, otherwise, by the ti mommy got up, Jingxi would starve to death."
The little guy softly replied, with a hint of accusation in his voice...
As if saying she's an incompetent mom, making her son find sothing to eat on his own.
Brat, what would happen if you didn't expose ?
What would happen if you gave
so face?
A certain little beast snorted arrogantly in her heart...
Not cooking breakfast is one thing, but not giving
face, huh.
It's not that simple...
The little guy seed to understand what Ye Xinluo was thinking, and he spoke up.
"Mommy, Jingxi wasn't exposing you!"
At this mont, Ye Xinluo felt as if thousands of alpacas were stampeding in her mind...
Baby, behaving like this you might end up having no friends, you know...
She awkwardly smiled, got up, and dashed into the kitchen.
She opened the fridge and took a look.
There weren't many ingredients left; it seed she'd have to swing by the supermarket on her way back in the afternoon.
She took out so tomatoes and a few eggs and started cooking.
She wasn't too hungry, so she planned to just make so simple noodles.
She served the cooked noodles into a bowl, placed it on the table neatly.
Seeing Jingxi still watching TV, she called out, "Jingxi, go wash your hands and co eat the noodles."
The little guy jumped off the sofa and walked into the bathroom.
After coming out of the bathroom, he climbed onto the chair at the dining table.
The little guy wasn't tall enough yet, so he stood on the chair.
He took the chopsticks from Ye Xinluo's hand, picked up so noodles, and ate them zestfully.
Ye Xinluo looked at the little guy eating enthusiastically, and her mood improved significantly.
No matter what she cooked, Jingxi never picked his food, which made Ye Xinluo quite satisfied.
She smiled, picked up the chopsticks from the table, and started eating the noodles.
The two ate quietly, with almost no sound apart from the occasional clinking of bowls and chopsticks.
They could even hear each other's breathing.
Ye Xinluo had told Jingxi, "Don't talk while eating, don't talk while sleeping."
Gradually, Jingxi got used to not talking while eating.
After finishing their al, Ye Xinluo picked up the dishes and chopsticks, went into the kitchen to wash them, and then returned to the living room, sitting next to the little guy.
A financial program was playing on the TV.
Jingxi loved watching these kinds of programs.
While other kids his age preferred cartoons, Jingxi, on the other hand, had a special liking for financial programs.
"Jingxi, Mommy needs to go out for a while this afternoon; do you want to co with Mommy?"
"Where's Mommy going?"
Jingxi looked up at Ye Xinluo.
Yesterday, he had intended to pester Mommy to take him for a stroll.
But he was too sleepy and fell asleep before they got ho, only waking up again in the afternoon.
Just as well, today's the perfect chance...
He had heard there was a famous snack street in Z City...
Thinking about it made his mouth water intensely.
"Mommy is going to et a very good friend."
"A friend? Male or female?"
The little guy's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was unfriendly.
He didn't like having male friends around Mommy.
No matter who it was, he didn't like it.
Of course, except for 'Dad Shaoyu'!
Umm...
Ye Xinluo felt that the little guy was like a husband interrogating his wife...
Those narrowed eyes, why did they seem a bit scary?
Could it be her illusion?
She shook her head, dispelling those ssy thoughts from her mind.
How could she think of her precious son like this!
"It's Aunt Shanshan, I've ntioned her to you before."
"Aunt Shanshan?"
Jingxi thought for a while and then rembered, it seed Mommy had ntioned this person to him.
Mommy said that Aunt Shanshan was a friend from high school and treated Mommy well.
Now that Mommy is back, it's normal to et her.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for so long, they must have a lot to talk about with each other.
