"Divorce"—these two words were hard for Song Song to utter, no matter what, Grandpa Xiao’s appearance saved her mother’s life...
Now that her mother has recovered, she proposed a divorce, it feels like abandoning soone after crossing the river.
Even though this wasn’t her wish, she simply didn’t want the person she cared about to be constrained...
Song Song was fretting over how to continue, luckily seeing a subway station, and then an irresistible spicy hotpot stall.
She quickly said, "Uncle, uncle, don’t see off, let off here! I feel so hungry now, I want to eat sothing before going back."
"There’s both food and a subway here, it really is the perfect place!"
Xiao Jinghuai glanced at the street stall, then at the subway station, turned the steering wheel, and steadily parked nearby, saying, "Be careful on your way back."
"...Alright."
The man’s voice, mixed with the night’s air, beca delicate, yet Song Song distinctly picked up an unfamiliar aloofness.
Even though he occasionally admonished her before, that tone was mixed with a bit of affection.
Now the words were gentle, but truly carried a hint of coldness.
"Uncle, you drive safely too, bye!"
Xiao Jinghuai nodded, watched her get off the car, and then drove away...
Song Song watched his departing car from behind, feeling slightly sour.
But no matter what unhappiness you encounter, a bowl of spicy hotpot can solve it, and if not, then two bowls will surely do the trick.
So, Song Song cheerfully ran over to the spicy hotpot stall and ordered two servings of everything.
Can’t finish? Just take it away, and eat it tomorrow!
She had no idea that the man who had already driven away returned there ten minutes later.
He sat in the car, rolled down the window halfway, lit a cigarette, and watched the girl across the street enjoying the street food.
She was eating with great relish, he could almost hear the slurping sounds from the spiciness...
Suddenly she shouted, "Boss, there’s no more vinegar here, I want vinegar!"
"..."
Not long after, she wobbled a bit as she got up from the stool, patted her flat stomach despite being full, and shouted again, "Boss, I can’t finish these, please pack them for !"
"..."
Cradling the spicy hotpot, about to leave, she spotted a pearl milk tea stall, and once again shouted, "Auntie, give a large milk tea, please."
Xiao Jinghuai smiled, quite an eater indeed.
He admitted she might be a handful, but...
The girl leisurely sucked on the milk tea and slowly sauntered into the subway station.
Once he confird that she had really gone inside, only then did the man start the car and leave.
...
Song Song just got ho and received a WeChat ssage from Zhou Yunxian saying: Little Fairy, I have a flight out of Qing City at 8 AM tomorrow, are you going to see off?
The news ca a bit suddenly, Song Song put down what she was holding and responded: Why are you leaving all of a sudden?
"Ah, I don’t want to leave either, but sothing urgent ca up."
"But you said before that you’d let us et Master Zhou, and now we haven’t even seen a glimpse of him, and you’re leaving..."
"Don’t worry, I won’t break my promise, but it might be a month or two, or maybe three or four months later..."
"Oh, alright! I’ll co to see you off tomorrow, it’s Saturday and I’m free."
"Haha, then I’ll wait for you!"
"..."
The next day, when Song Song rushed to the airport, she saw Zhou Yunxian dressed casually, wearing sunglasses, waiting outside. As soon as she saw Song Song, she waved and said, "Co, we’re about to part, let’s have a hug!"
Song Song: "..."
