A woman came running towards us, her heels clearly ten centimeters high. She ran with astonishing agility.

"Mommy~ Mommy~"

Gu Chenxi let go of Lan Qingyue's hand, her chubby face beaming with an adorable smile, and she pounced into the woman's arms.

"Honey, where did you go? Didn't Mommy and Daddy tell you to wait in the cake shop? Why did you run out?"

The woman anxiously held the baby's shoulders and spun her around to make sure she was alright. She then hugged the baby and kissed her cheek on one side and the other.

She had just returned to the cake shop and saw the empty seats, which made her break out in a cold sweat.

Everyone in the store said they had never seen a three-year-old girl.

She went out alone to look for Gu Chenxi, while her husband checked the security camera footage in the store to see if Gu Chenxi had gone out alone or been taken away by someone. When they saw that Gu Chenxi had gone out alone, the couple visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

...

"Mr. Gu, Miss Gu..."

The store manager stood to the side with his head bowed so low it almost touched the ground. Sweat streamed down his face, making him feel itchy. He hesitated, trembling, wondering whether he should wipe it away.

The man received a call saying that Gu Chenxi had been found, and his anxiety finally subsided.

The man walked out of the monitoring room without saying a word, and the store manager breathed a sigh of relief; finally, everything was alright.

The handkerchief clutched in my hand was crumpled; it was so wet it could be wrung out when I wiped the sweat from my forehead.

"dad!"

The man walked out of the monitoring room, and a small shadow flashed past his eyes. In his arms, there was a small, soft bundle of flesh.

Gu Chenxi gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, and her chubby arms wrapped around his neck. The man supported Gu Chenxi with one hand and held her back with the other.

"Daddy~ Daddy~ Xixi just met a really pretty older sister. She brought Xixi to find you and Mommy~~~"

Gu Chenxi tilted her head and smiled sweetly, "Xixi really likes that older sister!"

"Oh? Is that so? Then how about Xixi takes Daddy to see it?" The man raised his eyebrows, and a doting smile relaxed on his tense face.

"Okay! Mommy is talking to the older sister!"

"Thank you so much, miss!"

The woman returned with her child, and someone told her that her husband was in the monitoring room. Gu Chenxi then ran with the shop assistant to find her father. She was positioned near the shop entrance, so the child couldn't possibly leave under her watchful eye; it was safe, and only then did she feel comfortable letting her child go.

Lan Qingyue shook her head, her makeup once again making her unrecognizable. "It's alright, as long as the child is alright!"

Lan Qingyue turned her gaze away from the direction Gu Chenxi had run, and then looked closely at the woman in front of her, and was shocked.

She's so young! Who would have thought that such a young woman is already a mother?

Yang Yue was equally shocked, as was this girl...

"you……"

What's your name?

Who else is in the family?

Do you have no siblings?

Yang Yue was about to blurt out her questions when she saw the person in front of her looking at her with a probing gaze, and she abruptly suppressed them.

Lan Qingyue: "Hmm?"

The woman smiled faintly, without any extra expression, as if the shocked expression just now was Lan Qingyue's illusion.

"Oh right, look at my forgetfulness, I completely forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yang Yue, what's yours?"

Lan Qingyue felt a little uneasy, as she had been the subject of numerous rumors lately.

It's really embarrassing to say this.
