Wait for My Return (2)

Looking from left to right, horizontally or vertically, no matter how you looked at it, they didn’t seem related. Xiaoman was so cute and lively, while Liang Yuanqing was so sinister and cunning. This, this was...

Jiang Xing sighed, “This is a rotten tree producing a good apple. Everything is fated.”

“Mom, don’t panic. Wait for me to get home and see what Xiaoman has to say. This child has always had big ideas. Maybe by the time I get back, she will already have a plan in mind.”

Jiang Xiumei was absent minded. The child having big ideas was exactly what she was afraid of!

If... if Xiaoman said she wanted to go back, she would be unable to stop her. There was nothing that could stop her; what child did not love their parents?

Jiang Xiumei sighed fiercely, just waiting for Jiang Xing to come back.

The whole family was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere, and no one said anything for a long time.

Jiang Xiaoman heard the sound of Jiang Xing’s car, and immediately ran to the door to pick him up. “Uncle!”

“Hey.”

Jiang Xing touched her head, only to be surprised to realize that she had grown so tall and was a big girl now.

He was very sad inside for a while.

Now he couldn’t carry her anymore, maybe she would be the one to carry him instead.

Jiang Xing said, “Let’s go in and talk.”

Jiang Xiaoman obediently followed him into the room, and then the three sat down facing each other.

Jiang Xing said, “Xiaoman, your background... Grandma and Uncle didn’t lie to you on purpose. It’s just that things are a bit complicated, and I don’t know how to tell you. At that time, when your mother... my sister brought you back, she didn’t say anything. Even though we wanted to find your parents, we didn’t know where to look. Besides, our life before did not allow us to look for them... ”

Jiang Xing had not forgotten the hard times they lived before. Back then he was a mess, like a demon king of chaos who didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. The family’s livelihood was supported by Jiang Xiumei’s meager wage from working in the school cafeteria.

But before the departure, there was one thing left unresolved, which was her precious pig.

Jiang Xiaoman reckoned that she would be able to resolve the matter quickly, and wouldn’t trouble Fragrance with the trip back and forth.

Fragrance was also a good child that was well-behaved.

So Jiang Xiaoman carried Fragrance to look for Yu Qingshi. “Our family is going far away, and we might not return for ten or more days, so I’ll entrust Fragrance to you. It’s very well behaved, it’s not naughty and wouldn’t steal food or break things. Take care of it well.”

What could Yu Qingshi do? He could only agree, taking Fragrance and hugging it.

But the main issue was not Fragrance, but...

Yu Qingshi lifted his eyelids to look at her, and said dully, “You didn’t have the time to go to the beach with me, and now your family of three is going away... Where are you going that you wouldn’t return for ten or more days?”

When she went to the farm last time, he could understand. She was accompanying Grandma to recuperate, and he could also go visit Jiang Xiaoman. But this time, even Jiang Xing could go along, but he didn’t get to.

He felt really terrible.

“... I’m not going away to play, but for serious business.”

“Can’t you take me?” He sounded even more aggrieved.

Jiang Xiaoman sighed. Seeing that his face looked expressionless but that he was actually puffing his cheeks, she couldn’t help patting his cheek and comfortingly said, “It’s a bit complicated. When I get it sorted out, I’ll go to the beach with you when I return.”

Was that a promise?

Yu Qingshi nodded, “En!”

Since Jiang Xiaoman had said so, she would definitely do what she said.

Yu Qingshi began to live the days of raising pigs and waiting for Jiang Xiaoman to come back.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaoman never came back.

...Liar!!
