However… everyone in the corridor there was a stranger to him.
His gaze sharpened as he scanned every face.
Nothing!
He thought he had imagined it.
Xie Xize suddenly walked toward the corner where Mo Yangyang was hiding. Latiao asked indifferently, “Hey, are you leaving already? Aren’t you going to meet my mom?”
Xie Xize ignored him, and continued on his way.
Latiao placed his hands behind like a little old man. He followed Xie Xize at a steady pace.
He would not be surprised if Xie Xize found his mother. If he did not find her… so be it!
Latiao was only planning to try Xie Xize out with their current encounter. He wanted to see how many marks the man could score.
Now that he had gone back in time, he would not easily place the most important person to him in his current life in Xie Xize’s hands, even though he was looking for an ally.
Even if the man was his cheapskate father!
Latiao kept denying and rejecting Xie Xize in his previous life. Therefore, apart from his achievements, his icy bearing, and his vicious methods he used when he got his revenge on his enemies sadistically, Latiao did not really understand his father much.
If Xie Xize was not holding Mo Yangyang’s photo when he died, Latiao would never have known that his mother actually had a place in his heart.
Latiao always thought Xie Xize only bothered to find the culprits and kill them sadistically to avenge his son’s mother, not because he actually loved her.
No one ever thought a man like Xie Xize would ever fall in love with a woman! Even his son, Latiao was unsure about it!
Xie Xize died without leaving any final words for his son, yet he had been holding a photo of his mother!
The photo was very old. It had already turned yellow, but it was still in great condition.
Latiao calmly observed the man’s tall back. He never batted an eyelid most of the time. It was difficult to read his mind.
Therefore, Latiao was being very cautious, even if he knew Mo Yangyang did have a spot in Xie Xize’s heart.
Xie Xize had already arrived at Mo Yangyang’s hiding spot while Latiao was still deep in thought.
There was no one there. The place was empty.
Xie Xize frowned. What just happened? Did he really imagine it?
No… Xie Xize was very confident in himself. He was sure that someone was watching him. He was sure that he had heard the name that he had never forgotten.
Latiao came over and asked, “What are you looking for? Do you need my help? I’m loved by everyone here. I’ve met a lot of new friends.”
Xie Xize ignored him. He continued to scan his surroundings.
Latiao suddenly said, “Are you looking for a very beautiful lady?”
Xie Xize lowered his gaze, “You know her?”
Latiao blinked, “I happened to see her.”
“Where did she go?”
Latiao reached his hands out, “Carry me.”
Xie Xize picked up Latiao in his arms.
Latiao patted Xie Xize on the shoulder thoughtfully, “You’ve done well for today. Next time, you should work hard to win me over again.”
Xie Xize did not wear a friendly look, “Why should I?”
Latiao tapped Xie Xize hand to signal him to put him down.
He tidied his clothes after landing on the ground.
“It’s because I’m going to give you a surprise. If I’m happy, I might tell you where to find the beautiful lady! See you!”
