She glanced at Yan Wenxin and anxiously asked, “Wenxin, you mean… Xiaojiao drank wine yesterday?”
Yan Wenxin nodded several times .
Su Yue probed, “Yanyan made her drink it?”
She gripped the edges of the table so tightly that her fingers went white .
Yan Wenxin continued to nod as she murmured .
‘Ming Ansheng! She is only three years old . How can you be so despicable…’
Su Yue froze at the revelation .
Xuxu noticed that she didn’t look too well, so she asked, “Yueyue, what’s wrong?”
“I’m…” Su Yue smiled to dismiss her worries . She inhaled deeply to calm herself down and began to eat her breakfast .
Anyway, they wouldn’t have anything to do with each other . It wouldn’t matter if there were any misunderstandings .
After breakfast, Su Yue left Xiaojiao with Xuxu, and she brought their suitcases to Su Yan’s place .
It was Su Yan’s old apartment . Su Yan had moved into a new one that was nearer to the company; hence, the old one was vacant .
Before Su Yue came back, Su Yan already got someone to tidy up the place and change the bedsheets .
Su Yue only brought a few belongings with her since she still had to take care of Xiaojiao . Jiao Chen would settle the rest of their stuff .
It was almost lunch that she finished unpacking .
Su Yue stood at the French windows to admire the scenery outside . It was May, and the capital city seemed to welcome the warm weather . The sky was blue with fluffy white clouds .
A light breeze rippled the curtains and ruffled her hair . Some strands of hair stuck to her face but she ignored it .
Her bright black eyes were staring pensively into the distance . She was in a reverie .
She couldn’t understand why every time it was quiet around her, her heart would throb with a kind of… indescribable feeling .
It seemed like sorrow .
But she couldn’t understand it . She simply felt that something was drifting away from her .
Her phone vibrated with a text notification .
It ended Su Yue’s reverie, and she withdrew her gaze . She sighed helplessly to herself .
She bent her head and turned around .
She walked towards the couch and bent her back to pick up her phone .
Jiao Chen texted her .
‘Susu, it’s time for lunch . Did you bring Xiaojiao out to play today?’
Although it was merely a text, Jiao Chen had cheered her up . That trace of unknown sorrow vanished, and she began typing with a smile .
‘I’m unpacking in our new house, so I don’t have time to bring her out . We’ll wait for you . ’
Jiao Chen replied, ‘Yeah, sure!’
It seemed like he was making a promise .
Su Yue smiled and replied, ‘Silly . ’
They exchanged a few more texts before Jiao Chen urged Su Yue to have her lunch .
Su Yue went out for lunch . The buildings and shops didn’t change much in these four years .
She wasn’t hungry so she decided to take a stroll .
Besides, the weather was fine .
The area was more bustling as compared to others .
Su Yue took a walk without a destination in mind . And as she walked, she mulled over the events and memories that took place four years ago .
She couldn’t help but feel melancholic .
It had been four years, but everything seemed to have happened just yesterday .
But she had indeed given birth to Xiaojiao and lived with Jiao Chen for the past four years .
An abrupt loud sound jolted her from her memories .
