No one knew how scared she was. Her small body was curled up in a ball, hiding in the corner of the storage room, trembling violently.

Many times, she felt like she was going to be scared to death, but it was Xiao Anhe's promise to come back for her before he left that sustained her.

It's fair to say that if it weren't for the warmth she received when she was five, she might not be alive today.

“Actually…” Xu Moran was afraid that if she didn’t speak this time, there would be many things she would never have the chance to say again in her life. She mustered up her courage and said to Xiao Anhe, “For so many years, I have been waiting for you. I hope that this time, it won’t be like when I was five years old, when I waited for twenty years.”

If she had to wait for Xiao Anhe for another twenty years, she could do it. However, in twenty years, she would be a middle-aged woman in her forties. At that time, how could she be worthy of Xiao Anhe?

Xiao Anhe could clearly feel his heart twitching, it hurt, it hurt terribly. This pain was not just aches, it was pain, as if someone was slowly poking one small hole after another in his heart with a knife.

He was filled with extreme guilt and sadness, but to avoid making this parting too painful, he forced himself to hold it in and looked at Xu Moran with a smile on his face. "Ranran, don't worry, I'll be back soon this time. Ranran, maybe I really will have to rely on you to support me in the future. You won't regret it, will you?"

Xu Moran was amused by the second half of his sentence, "Don't worry, I will never regret it. It's an honor for me, Xu Moran, to be able to raise such a handsome guy like you, isn't it?"

Xiao Anhe cupped Xu Moran's face in his hands, lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Ranran, it is my greatest honor to have met you and to be loved by you."

Parting is always sad, and Xu Moran didn't want Xiao Anhe to leave with peace of mind, so she pretended to be relaxed and said, "Take care on the road, and call me when you're not busy."

Xiao Anhe insisted that she not see him off as he got into the car and left, but instead stood there and watched Xu Moran go back first.

Xu Moran listened to him and actually turned around and walked towards the residential area. If you didn't look closely and see that her shoulders were trembling violently, you would really think she was calm.

If Xiao Anhe didn't have a stronger will than the average person, he would have run up and hugged her long ago.

He gritted his teeth and stood motionless, his hands clenched into fists at his sides. He knew that Xu Moran must be in tears right now.

His eyes were already red the moment Xu Moran turned around.

An Jingfeng was moved by the scene of parting and took out his phone to send a message to Jiang Moli.

He told Jiang Moli to take good care of herself, that he would be back soon, and that he would handle things when he returned. Finally, he emphasized that he wanted to marry Jiang Moli, and that he would take care of Jiang Moli, Zhenzhen, and the baby in her womb.

He wanted to make them live a happy and fulfilling life.

Jiang Moli took a long time to reply to him, "I understand. Be careful on the road. The children and I will wait for you to come back."

An Jingfeng's eyes welled up with tears of excitement. It was wonderful; he was finally going to have a home of his own.
