I wonder if you're all right now

Hearing my words, Fang Wu could not help but laugh.

"I was furious to death, but after seeing Mu Huainan, he looked me up and down, asking if I was injured. After confirming that I was fine, he told the female model that she was also not very pretty, and that no one would be jealous of her beauty."

Actually, I could tell since high school that he didn't come to care about your grades at all. He just came to check to see if his precious foster daughter was bullied.

"Haha, really? At that time, I really didn't pay much attention to this."

Fang Wu curled his lips: "Nonsense, for someone like you who's been spoiled by him to such an extent, how could you possibly understand the feelings of us' victims'?"

She joked about saying the word 'victim' seriously, meaning that she felt wronged.

"Alright." I put my arm around her shoulders like a free young man. Though we were no longer young.

"Can't I apologize to you? I'll just apologize seriously for what he did to you all that year, okay?"

"Haha." Fang Wu laughed: "I was just joking." She looked at me and suddenly sighed softly.

"Then what are you going to do now? Are you sure that he won't be able to find you staying here with Jiu Jiu?"

Actually, I know very well that if Mu Huainan were to recover, he would probably not let me off. He had previously let me go, but because of his illness, he settled down behind his back in great waves.

Right now, his illness is slowly getting better, and some of the threatening forces inside the workshop have been eliminated. He has ways and means to go all out to find me.

Let alone a Mu City, even if they escaped out of the atmosphere, there was no one that Mu Huainan couldn't find.

At this thought, I sighed heavily.

"I don't know."

Fang Wu patted my shoulder lightly.

"At least he hasn't found them that quickly yet, so you and Jiu Jiu can live in peace for a while. According to Jiu Jiu's age, it's about time for him to go to the preschool, my husband is a teacher and they have an elementary school attached to them. I'll ask him to help me with the registration procedures."

I looked at Fang Wu gratefully.

"Thank you."

During the most difficult times, helping is not a brother who once had a heart to heart fight, but an enemy who has had a heart to heart fight.

I looked at Fang Wu, and truly felt that time was a magical thing.

It took away some people, changed some people, killed some people, and saved others.

At night, Fang Wu invited me and Jiu Jiu to her house for dinner. Her child was a year younger than 999. She was a soft little girl.

Fang Wu's husband, who at first glance looked like an ordinary man with average looks, became a little fat in his middle years. His slightly bulging beer belly looked heavy from work. He said that now the teachers were no longer just ordinary teachers. Looking at the job titles, the promotion rate, all of the hardships he worked so hard for were all there was to look at.

I watched the family enjoy themselves. My wife served my husband, poured wine, and asked my daughter about what she had seen and heard in kindergarten.

To say that he wasn't envious was a lie.

Thinking back to how Fang Wu envied me before because I had the best man in the world to love me and because I led a life that they thought was enviable enough.

But God is such a fair existence, pain and happiness are equal, I have so much, but also lost so much.

Sometimes, it wasn't a good thing for people to meet too early.

At the table, Fang Wu was still joking around with me.

"Oh right, An An. Where's Peng Haobai? Have you contacted him before? Watching the news, it seems like something happened to his grandfather? "

At the mention of this, my heart thumped as I gulped down a mouthful of food.

"I'm not sure either."

"I thought he would be the first to find you after he returned home."

I didn't say anything.

"Hubby, did you know that when we went to school, the two most handsome men in the school for the last ten years were publicly acknowledged to be the most outstanding, and they both doted on her from behind An An. Tell me about it. Can you not make us girls jealous? "

"Speaking of Peng Haobai, he's the one who is infatuated with you. I've liked you for so long, even though I left school in the end, I still remember the things he protected you from."

I smiled. "It's been so long. "Remember what?"

Fang Wu suddenly moved closer to me mysteriously, raising her eyebrows and asking me, "Honestly, back then Peng Haobai was so good to you, have you ever been tempted by him?"

When Fang Wu asked this, I choked on the spice in one gulp, then went to pour water on the tea table in the living room. When asked this, I choked on the spicy water in one gulp, then stood up to pour water on the other side of the tea table.

Had I liked Peng Haobai before?

A boy like him, who could not be tempted by his bright appearance on the field, his tank top, his sweats, his handsome sun?

At first, it wasn't loud, as if I was suppressing it, but later, I started to cough more and more heavily. I remembered that in the tent next to us was Peng Ha Bai, when we were setting up the tent during the day, especially when the squad leader Chen Kun, who was supposed to be lining up beside me, stubbornly stuck beside me.

At that time, it was drizzling. I carried my umbrella and walked out of my tent. The yellow camping lights were still on. I walked to the entrance of his tent. The coughing sounds from inside continued.

I called out from outside: "Peng Haobai."

The coughing inside gradually stopped.

I put away the umbrella and opened the zipper of the tent to go in. Peng Haobai was looking at me with his shiny, wet eyes, and his face was flushed red. His body seemed to be trembling in the jar.

So hot.

"Did you bring any antipyretic?" I asked him.

Peng Haobai shook his head and replied hoarsely: "No."

Two words, he coughed again, fiercely, hunched over, his hand over his mouth.

I poured a cup of hot water and passed it over, touching his fingertips.

He drank slowly, and I patted him gently on the back, one after the other, trying to soothe his cough. He drank with his head against his head, and when he finished, he looked up at me with his shiny wet eyes and smiled, frowning slightly, like a pitiful little pug, his clear, bright eyes in the pale moonlight that shone in, and made my heart turn into a pool of spring water.

That night, I held him in that quiet embrace, listening to the raindrops drumming on the top of the tent. The raindrops seemed to blossom on the roof of the tent, and the air was filled with the smell of wet grass.

It was a night that never came back. We snuggled up against each other in peace, warming ourselves by the warmth of each other's bodies, and it was as if we were the only two of us in the entire world. In the darkness, for the first time, I let go of the disdain and hostility I used to feign and gathered up the pride and sharpness I could have for them.

He no longer put on an act of being shameless. He just quietly became a cute boy. He did not flaunt or act presumptuously.

Actually, Peng Haobai had always been faster than Mu Huainan in running.

It's just that Mu Huainan treats me more closely than him.

If there hadn't been so many accidents, I would have been tempted by him at that moment. If this desire had lasted, if it hadn't been interrupted, perhaps it would have been a different scene now.

However, where did all these people come from in the mortal world? Perhaps there were accidents and tomorrow, but no one knew who would arrive first.

Suddenly, someone patted on my shoulder. Turning around, it was Fang Wu who looked at me worriedly.

"Why did you take so long to drink a cup of water? Are you alright?"

I shook my head.

"When I saw the beautiful moon, I couldn't help but take a second look."

I went back to eat with them. Fang Wu's husband cooked a good meal, and 99% of the people ate very happily. I hugged him, and also laughed along.

When a child is full, he wants to sleep. I'll carry him home, and Fang Wu will send me back. It's inconvenient for me to carry her, so she helped me make up the bed and place the pillow inside.

"In the future, if you need anything, just come find me. If you can help, I'll definitely help."

I was extremely touched by what Fang Wu had said before she left.

A distant relative is no better than a close neighbor. I understand this principle.

Jiu Jiu was curled up in my embrace, and I couldn't help but kiss him on his fleshy face. I was the only one who could do such a thing.

He turned over and rubbed his eyes, feeling a little out of my embrace. He opened his eyes slowly, and when he saw that I was holding him, he smiled and moved closer to me.

He called out with his mouth full of glutinous liquid.

"Mom."

My heart melted in an instant.

This little guy's consciousness is still hazy, not very clear. Subconsciously calling out for his mother made me feel touched.

Although I was an incompetent mother, he was an exceptionally competent son.

At dinner, Jiu Jiu showed his understanding.

If the adults didn't move the chopsticks, he would have remained still and started to eat. He even had to look at me with his eyes, and only after obtaining my consent did he start to move the chopsticks.

This child was so sensible that it caused one's heart to ache.

Even Fang Wu said that this child had suffered a lot. When she said this, she glanced at me, and there was a bit of blame in her eyes, but she did understand, and then she said: "This can't be blamed on you. Everyone has their own difficulties, if it weren't for you sending her to the orphanage, she wouldn't have lived to this day."

Recalling Fang Wu's words, my heart ached for a while.

I can endure all kinds of hardships, all kinds of hardships are worth it. As long as I can live a happy life and grow up safely and healthy, I can pay any price.

Even leaving the people I loved, leaving the cities I grew up in, leaving the people I loved, uprooting everything in the past, I was willing.

I think that no matter how difficult the wound is, it will heal. As long as I am able to grow up, I will be very happy.

Jiu Jiu, who was in his embrace, licked his lips.

"Mom."

His childish voice was especially adorable.

"Yes." I hugged him tight. "Well, good night."
