Chapter 1086: Chapter 1086: Who Do You Think It Is?

Yang Xiaoxi and Cheng Feiyang were startled, then their faces filled with shock as they pressed on, “Xiaobei, did you really et an uncle?”

Cheng Feiyang’s hands were trembling with excitent, “Xiaobei, tell , what did that uncle look like? What did he say to you?”

Before He Xiaobei could answer, Yang Xiaoxi added, “Xiaobei, does that uncle look like your dad?”

“What uncle?” Realizing he had misspoken, He Xiaobei raised his earnest little face and countered, “Godmother, Uncle Cheng, what are you all talking about? I don’t understand?”

Yang Xiaoxi panicked, “Xiaobei, didn’t you just say that he wouldn’t kidnap you? Isn’t that ‘he’ an uncle?”

“Oh!” He Xiaobei suddenly realized, “I was talking about the waiter uncle; he wouldn’t kidnap . We often go to their hotel for als, they all recognize , and they are very kind to .”

Yang Xiaoxi: “…”

“So, all this ti, the uncle you were talking about is a waiter?”

“Mhm.” He Xiaobei nodded vigorously, then asked knowingly, “Godmother, who did you think it was?”

Yang Xiaoxi and Cheng Feiyang exchanged glances, both feeling deeply disappointed.

Cheng Feiyang sighed, tousled He Xiaobei’s hair, and said, “Nobody, your godmother thought it was an older brother she hadn’t seen for a long ti. Go play with your toy car! Your godmother and I need to talk for a while.”

“Mhm.”

He Xiaobei nodded and started to play with his toy car in the yard.

Yang Xiaoxi looked dejected, “I thought…”

She didn’t finish her sentence, but Cheng Feiyang understood her aning and comforted her, “We were just overthinking it. If Brother Nan really ca back, he would have co to see Mianmian and Xiaobei first thing.”

They both knew that the chance of soone coming back after being missing for five years was extrely slim.

Missing… was just a way for them to hold on to a sliver of hope before slowly descending into despair as ti passed by.

Sotis, Cheng Feiyang even thought that if there were proof of Brother Nan’s death, it might actually be a relief for Shen Mianmian. After all, if a person were truly dead, Shen Mianmian would have moved on from it in these five years.

Instead of living in despair while waiting.

Mianmian was still young, with her best years ahead of her. She couldn’t just waste them away, could she?

If Brother Nan knew how Shen Mianmian was now, he would certainly be upset.

Tears welling up, Yang Xiaoxi said indignantly, “If he really cared about Mianmian and Xiaobei, he should have co back by now. These years have been so hard on Mianmian! He was with her for five years, and she has waited for him for another five years. She has more than repaid him for his kindness. If he doesn’t show up soon, I’m going to advise Mianmian to forget about him. This is just too much.”

Cheng Feiyang knew that Yang Xiaoxi wasn’t really blaming He Nan, she was just heartbroken for Mianmian.

In fact, everyone understood that if he could have co back, He Nan would have done so already. The reason he hadn’t wasn’t that he chose not to; he simply couldn’t.

He wrapped his arms around Yang Xiaoxi, saying, “I know you feel for Mianmian, but let’s not talk about these matters in front of her. Maybe once Mianmian’s new film starts shooting and she ets more people, she’ll start to feel better.”

“Mhm.”

Yang Xiaoxi nodded.

She glanced at He Xiaobei, who was playing with his toy car in the yard, and her tears turned into laughter.

“Thank goodness my godson is here to keep Mianmian company.”

If it weren’t for He Xiaobei, she didn’t know how Mianmian would have coped all these years.

Mianmian never wailed or made a fuss, but everyone knew her heart had long been riddled with holes.
