Chapter 97 - XingXing Got Lots of Toys (2)
The two of them had barely talked to each other so Cheng Huan hadn’t expected that he’d talk to her . She paused for a second then shook her head .
“No, I am just looking . ”
She hasn’t gotten anywhere with her first restaurant yet . There was no reason to aim too high .
They spent the rest of the afternoon at the amusement park and finally left when it was closing time .
After an entire day, XingXing had gotten much closer to Jiang MingYuan . He would call him “uncle” sweetly . After Jiang MingYuan had taken them home, the little kiddo kept on waving his little hand and saying goodbye to him .
Then he turned to Cheng Huan and asked, “Are we going out again tomorrow, Mommy?”
“No,” said Cheng Huan definitively . She had poor balance and many of the rides in the park spun . It didn’t take much for her to feel nauseated .
She turned around and headed home . The little kiddo, behind her, was still grumbling about how fun the amusement park was . Cheng Huan just pretended that she couldn’t hear him . It was until dinner was ready before XingXing finally stopped grumbling .
That night, Cheng Huan bathed XingXing, put him in bed and read him a story to put him to sleep . After she has showered and was about to go to bed, she saw a message on his phone .
The sender was a series of numbers that looked somewhat familiar .
[Thank you . ]
Cheng Huan raised her brows and didn’t quite get it . She didn’t respond to it . Placing her cellphone aside, she got into bed and turn the lights off .

Jiang MingYuan came again the next day . This time they didn’t go to the amusement park but he took XingXing to the shopping mall instead . When they returned, they brought with them several bags of toys .
Watching the workers bringing them up bit by bit and the toys were taking over the couch, Cheng Huan frowned and said to not spoil the child .
“It’s fine . ” Jiang MingYuan didn’t mind at all . “As long as he is happy . ”
Since he said that, Cheng Huan didn’t want to say anything . As soon as Jiang MingYuan had left, she took away half of the toys .
XingXing was still swimming in the sea of toys when half of them were taken away from him by his mother . He didn’t even know how to respond but just looked at all the bags of stuff that were shoved into the top of the closet .
After Cheng Huan had put them away, she climbed back down and clapped her eyes . She turned and walked away after casting a glance over at XingXing .

The little kiddo was still dumbfounded . He stayed in the study by himself for a while, dazed, before he walked out leaning against the wall . Cheng Huan was busy inside the kitchen and XingXing walked over and hugged her around her thigh . “Mom!”
“Hmm?” replied Cheng Huan without stopping what she was doing .
She thought XingXing was going to fuzz about the toys and was already growing impatience .
“Are you mad, Mommy?” asked XingXing .
Little kiddo was very sensitive and could tell who liked him and who didn’t from just one look . Cheng Huan was a bit distant today so, in his mind, it translated to “Mommy doesn’t like him anymore . ”
Hearing his words, Cheng Huan stopped what she was doing .

She put down the cleaver in her hand and looked down at XingXing . The little kiddo’s eyes were widened and filled with fear .
She had scared him…
Cheng Huan sighed to herself and felt a little regretful . She leaned down, put her arms around him, and patted him on his back . “Mommy is a little bit upset . ”
“But why?” XingXing was baffled .
Cheng Huan walked outside with him and the mother and son duo sat crossed legs on the couch facing each other . She took a breath and said, “Mommy is a little bit upset . Can you guess why?”
The little kiddo looked at her, his fingers clawing at the cover of the couch . He could sense that his mommy’s displeasure had to do with him .
