Chapter 881: Mom, You Must Co Pick Up
He Xiyan slept early that night because she felt both physically and ntally exhausted.
She curled up in her soft and large bed. This bed was 2-ters wide but she was the only person lying on it at the mont, so she found it difficult to get used to the cold sheets beside her. Her hands and feet were cold for the longest ti.
Her body’s constitution had been Yang-deficient for the past two years, so her legs tended to be cold during winter. She was so used to putting her feet on Jiahang’s body and he would always warm her up.
She looked at her phone and saw that it was already 9:30 PM but she still could not fall asleep.
Then, her phone rang and she saw that it was a video call from her son, Yuan Yuan.
He Xiyan slapped a hand over her forehead when she rembered that she had forgotten to send Yuan Yuan a voice ssage today. She quickly turned on the lights, straightened her clothes, and accepted his call.
Soon, a rosy-cheeked boy with big round eyes, long eyelashes, a sharp nose, and a beautiful mouth appeared on screen. He was truly a handso boy.
“Ma ma...” Yuan Yuan said loudly as he waved at his mother.
He Xiyan smiled and returned the greeting.
“Yuan Yuan, why aren’t you sleeping yet?” she asked since she rembered Yuan Yuan telling her that he would sleep at 9 PM every night.
“I can’t fall asleep because I’m missing you so much,” Yuan Yuan said with a tiny pout and sounded a little upset. His mother had promised to ssage him every day but she had failed to send him a ssage today.
“I miss you too,” she said. Then, she couldn’t help but stretch out her hand to stroke Yuan Yuan’s cheeks on the screen.
“Mom... Dad said that he’ll send over to your place next weekend. You must rember to pick up from the airport,” he said cheerily and smiled, revealing a set of pearly white teeth. He had two tiny dimples when he smiled which made him look even more adorable.
He Xiyan froze for a mont and looked a little conflicted. She longed to see her son but she rembered that Jiahang might also be coming ho next weekend. However, Jiahang was no longer the Chen Jiahang she used to know, so she didn’t know how Gu Shaoqian would feel about Yuan Yuan.
She felt her heart clench painfully at this thought.
“What’s wrong, mom? Do you not want to co visit you?” Yuan Yuan rubbed at his eyes sadly when he saw that his mother had not responded to his earlier excitent.
He Xiyan didn’t know what to say.
She thought for a mont before she finally nodded and said with a smile, “Of course I’ve missed you. I’ll definitely pick you up from the airport.”
She didn’t know what Jiahang, who had regained his mories, would feel or think about Yuan Yuan’s existence but she couldn’t cut off all contact with her child, nor could she not spend ti with him.
Suddenly, another face appeared on the screen and it was none other than Mo Yixuan. He sat behind Yuan Yuan and pulled Yuan Yuan onto his lap.
“What’s wrong, Yan Yan? Why do your eyes look so swollen?” Mo Yixuan asked as he imdiately noticed how pallid she looked on screen. She looked as though she had been crying.
He Xiyan ignored him and only looked at her child, Yuan Yuan, as she said, “Yuan Yuan, I’m tired so I’ll turn in first. I’ll send you a text tomorrow so be a good boy and listen to your father and teachers in school.”
She smiled at him, then she cut off the connection.
