Nan Zhi pulled Xia Yanran into the apartment.
Xiaojie had also woken up already. He had noticed that his Godma was not in a good mood yesterday, so when he saw her red eyes now, he tilted his head in an angle in contemplation before he hurriedly ran back to his room.
Nan Zhi continued to pull Xia Yanran into her bedroom, before she searched her wardrobe for some suitable clothes. “Go take a shower first and change into clean clothes. I’ll go make something nice now.”
Xia Yanran’s eyes filled with tears, as she hugged Nan Zhi, touched by her gesture.
Nan Zhi patted Xia Yanran’s shoulders lightly. “So what if you fell out of love? Think about me, I’ve even experienced life-and-death situations!”
Xia Yanran nodded. This bit of pain she felt was indeed nothing compared to what Zhizhi had experienced.
Besides, she only liked Xiao Yi, she did not love him!
After Xia Yanran got out from the shower, Nan Zhi had finished making breakfast.
Xia Yanran sat at the dining table, before Xiaojie, who was wearing a baby bear one-piece outfit, stood in front of her and started to sing.
“There are three bears living together.”
“Daddy Bear, Mommy Bear and Baby Bear.”
“Daddy Bear is fat.”
“Mommy Bear is very slim.”
“Baby Bear is very cute.”
“Oho, oho, you’re the best!”
As Xiaojie sang, he did the accompanying actions, and Xia Yanran’s unhappiness went away a little at Xiaojie’s cuteness. She cupped her mouth with her hand, as her eyes filled with tears.
Her Godson was really good at comforting girls!
After Xiaojie finished singing the song, he ran in front of Xia Yanran, taking the initiative to place a kiss on her pretty cheek. “Godma, all of my kisses were supposed to go to Pretty Zhizhi, but I gave you mine today. You have to be happy!”
Xia Yanran pulled Xiaojie into her arms. “Thank you, Jie Baby! Godma is really happier now!”
With Xiaojie making her happy and Nan Zhi’s delicious food, Xia Yanran could not be sad even if she wanted to.
After they had finished eating breakfast, An Feng walked over. She gave Xia Yanran a cheongsam with flowers that she had sewn on personally. “Auntie made one for you, Zhizhi and Huahua because I was bored. Take a look, do you like it?”
An Feng only looked like she was in her thirties, even though she was already in her forties. She was petite and pretty with fair skin. She looked like a beauty from a misty lake, and was gentle and attractive.
Zhizhi had probably inherited her height from her father.
The flowers that An Feng had sewn on the cheongsam was exquisite and elegant. Xia Yanran really liked it and found a smile spread on her tentative lips. “Auntie, you’re really good at this! Your skills are comparable to those masters!”
An Feng smiled gently. “The main thing is that all three of you are beautiful and would look good wearing anything.”
“Auntie is the real beauty here! We can’t compare to Auntie.” Xia Yanran was not flattering An Feng. An Feng really was beautiful. She did not belong to the type where people marvelled over her beauty at first sight, but she was the type that looked prettier the more one looked at her. There was a gentleness on her, as she exuded the feminine charms from within.
With the company of Nan Zhi and her family, Xia Yanran felt like she did not even have the chance to feel sad at all. Nan Zhi would fill her schedule everyday, and by the time she was free, all she wanted to do was sleep.
Days like these passed by quickly and like that, it had already been one week.
It was until a certain night when Xia Yanran received Xiao Yi’s call. It was then that she realized that it had been a while since the two of them contacted each other.
In the past year, he would bring her along with him even if he was on a business trip.
It was rare for them to not contact each other for a week.
It seemed like he was really disappointed in her.
But it was alright. It’s better if he was disappointed, so that they can stop contacting each other in the future.
Staring at the blinking caller ID on her phone, Xia Yanran rejected the call without any hesitation and blocked his number.
Within the next few seconds, she deleted and block his Weixin and email address.
For her, once she decided on something, she would never drag it out.
After doing all this, Xia Yanran lay down on her bed, closing her eyes. However, before she could feel the emotions swelling in her heart, her phone rang again.
It was an unknown number calling her this time.
Xia Yanran thought that Xiao Yi had changed a number, so she wanted to reject the call. However, her fingers accidentally touched the answer button.
Yi Fan’s warm and pleasant voice trailed from the other end of the call, “Yanran.”
A year ago, Yi Fan had accidentally found out about Xiao Yi and her, and he went to fight Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi felt sorry towards him, so he let Yi Fan hit him. Some time later, Yi Fan went overseas.
It had been a very long time since the two of them had contacted each other.
“Yanran, I’m preparing to return to the country. I tried to forget you in this past year, but I still couldn’t. Are you willing to give me another chance?” Yi Fan’s voice sounded really affectionate.
Xia Yanran really liked him in the past, because he was clean, warm and knew how to take care of her. With him, she felt like she was a really clean and bright person.
However, she had never thought that she would forget that ray of brightness because of Xiao Yi.
Xia Yanran bit down on her lips hard. Her voice was slightly hoarse. “I’m sorry, Yi Fan. We can’t go back to how we were.”
“It’s because you already fell for Xiao Yi, right?” Yi Fan laughed in disappointment. “Indeed, he has the charm to move any woman. But Yanran, do you know that the woman he loved the most has already passed away?”
Xia Yanran furrowed her eyebrows. “The woman he loved the most?”
“You probably still don’t know about it. After the woman he loved the most passed away, he adopted her daughter. No matter how nice he is to you, he will not love you completely. His heart will only be with that pair of mother and daughter.”
After the call ended, Xia Yanran let her eyes close as she remained silent for a long while.
...
It had been another three days.
Xia Yanran did not receive any more calls from Xiao Yi. Her sadness had mostly gone away.
However, she kept feeling restless and uneasy.
Today, she had received a call from Xiao Yi’s adoptive daughter.
She did not say anything in the call, only asking Xia Yanran to go to Xiao Yi’s villa at the city’s south.
Xia Yanran was a little confused. She wanted to reject Xiao Xi, but Xiao Xi said, “I already asked the servants to pack your stuff in Uncle’s house. If you’re not coming to take them, I will throw them away.”
...
40 minutes later, Xia Yanran arrived at the villa at the city’s south.
When the butler saw Xia Yanran, he brought her into the living room.
Xia Yanran could smell the scent of incense from the moment she entered the villa.
Light steps sounded from the top. Xia Yanran turned around and saw Xiao Xi dressed in black and walking down from upstairs.
She looked paler and more frail than when Xia Yanran saw her that day in her private room.
Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail, with a white flower pinned on her hair tie.
At this, Xia Yanran stopped breathing.
What happened? Why was she dressed like this?
Xia Yanran turned to look at the butler again hurriedly, only to find the butler also wearing full black. She immediately furrowed her eyebrows tightly.
“Butler, please give Auntie Xia her things!”
Hearing Xiao Xi call her Auntie made Xia Yanran’s eyebrows furrow tighter together. However, she did not say anything.
What had happened?
She needed to know.
