  It was so noisy that Su Yue couldn’t read her magazine. She sat at a corner of the couch.

  “Mommy, look at my drawing.”


  Suddenly, Su Xiaojiao came to her with a drawing book. She pointed at some colorful scribbles.

  Su Yue studied her drawing with a frown for a short while, before glancing at Xiaojiao.

  “Pfft!”


  Su Xiaojiao’s face was just like her scribbles. Her whole face was smeared with different colors.

  It didn’t really affect her aesthetic appeal, but she looked silly and cute—just like a little kitten.

  Su Yue exploded in laughter as she extended her hand to wipe Xiaojiao’s mouth. “You can’t put the crayons in your mouth. It’s harmful.”


  Beibei suddenly turned around. And to Su Yue, he replied, “This isn’t harmful. I bought this specially for her. It’s environmentally friendly and safe for children.”


  Was this boy really only eight years old?

  Environmentally friendly and safe for children?

  His intentions were way too obvious.

  Su Yue glanced at Beibei and he peered at her with his clear and bright eyes. His eyes sparkled like stars, and he looked so innocent and pure.

  She couldn’t help but recall the first time she saw Beibei.

  He was around Wenxin’s age four years ago, and he was holding hands with Ming Ansheng’s grandfather. He seemed scared as he looked at Ming Ansheng.

  He addressed Ming Ansheng as

  so softly and carefully.

  They should be very close by now.

  Meiduo was gone, so he should love this boy even more.

  “It’s really environmentally friendly. I took 200 yuan from my piggy bank to buy it.” Beibei widened his eyes as he tried to explain to Su Yue.

  Su Yue smiled. “I didn’t say I didn’t believe you.”


  Children deserved all the encouragement and affirmation they could have.

  Whenever she did something she was proud of, she always wished that there would be someone to pat her head. She wanted someone to praise her.

  But all she received were indifference, sarcasm, and mockery.

  So ever since she had Xiaojiao, she would always lavish her with praise even though it was just a tiny achievement, such as feeding herself.

  Even if the child belonged to someone else, she wanted to praise him too.

  When Beibei heard that Su Xiaojiao believed him, he curled his lips happily. He turned to Xiaojiao and said, “Next time I’ll buy you the zodiac signs coloring book.”


  It delighted Xiaojiao. “Thank you, Brother.”


  It was easy for children to become friends. As long as the other child was nice to her.

  If someone was mean to her, she would dislike him.

  It was merely an hour and the girl had addressed Beibei as her brother. And she was warm and affectionate towards him.

  Before today, she was still clinging on to Nuoxing. But now she had cast him aside.

  Su Xiaojiao held her crayon and started scribbling. Beibei was behind her as he guided her by holding her hand.

  Su Yue watched this peaceful and loving scene, and it conflicted her.

  She wasn’t sure if she should pull them apart.

  They shouldn’t have met each other at all, not to mention spending time together.

  Xiaojiao was her daughter with Jiao Chen. She wanted it to stay that way.

  She knew that once she returned, their peaceful life would be disrupted.

  The truth behind Xiaojiao’s parentage would be uncovered, eventually. And he…… would find out the truth, eventually.
