Ming Ansheng tried to smother his coughing as Xiaojiao was asleep .
“Drink more water . ” Su Yue carried Xiaojiao as she got off the car . Before she closed the car door, she hesitated for a moment before reminding Ming Ansheng .
She slammed the car door and ran back towards the house .
She entered and turned on the lights .
Everything seemed unchanged and so familiar . Yet, something was missing .
She and Xiaojiao were the only ones in the house now . No matter how happy or how loud their laughter was, the house still felt cold and lonely .
The lass was drained of all energy today . She didn’t flutter her eyelids at all when Su Yue transferred her to her bed .
Su Yue tucked Xiaojiao under her blanket and treaded carefully out of her room .

She walked to the couch and switched on her laptop .
She had to handle some urgent orders and queries .
She was getting better at handling customers by now .
She finished replying the orders and finally she could call it a day . She scanned the living room .
And her heart… felt empty .
She put down her laptop and grabbed a cushion . Her eyes darted around and landed on the photo wall .
She gazed at the photo of her, Xiaojiao, and Jiao Chen . Jiao Chen seemed to smile at her from afar .
“Jiaojiao…”

Su Yue’s phone rang suddenly .
It interrupted her thoughts, and she withdrew her gaze .
Third sister-in-law’s name was on the screen .
Why was her third sister-in-law calling her so late at night? Su Yue took her phone and put it to her ear . It suddenly dawned on her that it was day time in the capital city .
She said hello and Wen Xuxu’s voice sounded . “Yueyue, you haven’t slept?”
Su Yue slept really late after she started her online business . Xuxu and the rest knew that she always worked until past midnight .
If not, she wouldn’t have called so late .
Su Yue shook her head . “Nope . ”
Su Yue’s heart felt warm when she heard Xuxu’s voice .
She managed a tiny smile as she fiddled with the cushion .
Xuxu asked, “Today is Christmas, did you bring Xiaojiao out?”
“Yeah . We just came back after a long day . She fell asleep on the way back . ” Su Yue grinned as she replied .
In a rather worried tone, Xuxu asked, “It is snowing heavily in N City . Did you bring her out alone?”
“I was not alone . I was with Ming…” Su Yue hurriedly corrected herself . “My friend . ”
Her voice was reduced to a whisper .
Xuxu chuckled over the line . “I know that Ming Ansheng is in Country M . He had contributed hundreds of thousands yuan to the airlines this year . ”
Su Yue grunted in response, and she bowed her head as she blushed .
According to how often her helper had lugged back stuff from him, she could imagine how many trips he had made .
Su Yue felt like laughing .
Xuxu suddenly spoke solemnly, “Yueyue, if you still have him in your heart, try accepting him again . It’s tough for you to bring Xiaojiao up alone . Your brother and I are both worried for you . ”
