Xiao Xiao was born with her eyes already open.
When Xu Wan called her, the child seemed to understand something, her eyes narrowed, and she opened her mouth and smiled.
Xu Wan looked at Xiao Xiao smiling, and tears once again fell uncontrollably.
It's said that babies born during their first month are not good-looking.
However, Xu Wan thought Xiao Xiao was exceptionally beautiful, with big eyes that looked exactly like the photo album she had seen before, showing Jiang Tingzhou at birth.
Soon, the nurse wheeled her out of the delivery room.
"Wanwan, are you alright? Tell me immediately if you feel unwell."
Xu Pingrong was the first to rush over to check on Xu Wan.
Xu Wan has a rare blood type, and if she were to experience severe bleeding, the risk would be extremely high.
"I'm fine, Mom." Xu Wan forced a smile. "I'll be alright. I still want to be there for my daughter as she grows up."
It is said that motherhood makes one strong, and at this moment, Xu Wan suddenly understood this phrase.
Xiao Xiao was just born.
Her father's fate was unknown, and as his mother, she couldn't afford to have anything happen to him.
If Jiang Tingzhou can never come back, then she will carry his love with her, accompany Xiaoxiao as she grows up, go to school with her, watch her mature, and see her get married.
Because we need to get Xiaoxiao's birth certificate, we have to decide on the child's name.
Although this was Jiang Tingzhou's child, the Jiang family still gave Xu Wan the right to name the child.
Not only the child's name, but also the child's surname, can be decided by her.
Ultimately, Xu Wan decided to let the child take the surname Jiang.
She was not given another name; she was simply called Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Lingya was the one who obtained the birth certificate.
When Lingya handed the birth certificate to Xu Wan, Xu Wan stared at the date October 1st on the certificate, momentarily lost in thought.
This date is not only a major holiday in China.
On this day last year, she was kidnapped by Xie Ning, which caused her to miscarry.
Since Jiang Tingzhou went missing, she has been trying her best to be strong, but she has already cried several times in just the few days of giving birth.
Xu Wan stood up, gently patting Xiao Xiao who was fast asleep in the stroller, and held back the tears in her eyes. "Baby, you really came to find Mommy. This time, Mommy will definitely protect you well, and we will never be separated again."
-
Spring passes and autumn comes.
An Yunya's case was officially closed three years after Jiang Tingzhou went missing.
Because Xu Wan suffered from severe aftereffects, Xiao Yinlan was sentenced to seven years in prison in the final trial.
On the night the verdict was announced, Ji Tong brought all sorts of top-quality ingredients to Xu Wan's house to celebrate.
Xiaoxiao is two years old this year, and she can already talk and walk.
Although Ji Tong is still single, she is very good at coaxing children.
She started playing with Xiaoxiao as soon as she entered the room.
Xiaoxiao is still a child and has limited energy. In less than an hour, the little one got sleepy.
Xu Wan carried her back to the bedroom and read her two storybooks before finally coaxing Xiao Xiao to sleep.
When she came out of the bedroom, Ji Tong had already taken her family's electric hot pot out of the cabinet, plugged it in, and then went to get the cola.
"Aren't you afraid of gaining weight from eating and drinking so late at night?"
As Xu Wan helped her put ingredients into the pot, she couldn't help but complain about her.
"We finally won the three-year lawsuit, so it doesn't matter if we make an exception this time." Ji Tong bent down and took out ice cubes from the freezer. "That's what happens when we're best friends."
"Alright, I'll make an exception for you this time, but I won't drink Coke with you."
Although Xu Wan has been weaned, she still pays close attention to her diet.
Once the hot pot was boiling, Ji Tong put all the meat in. When the meat slices changed color, she picked up a piece and gave it to Xu Wan, saying, "Eat quickly, eat quickly, let's get fat together."
"Thanks."
Xu Wan lowered her head and ate the meat.
Ji Tong picked up another piece for herself, and before eating it, she asked Xu Wan, "Wanwan, the lawsuit is over. I think this is a way of putting the past behind us. I think you should move on from the past and embrace a new life."
I think things are fine as they are now.
Xu Wan already has plenty of experience in rejecting these kinds of questions.
Ji Tong, still unwilling to give up, asked again, "Has your senior, Gu Qing, been coming to the law firm to see you lately? I think he's actually a pretty good person, so loyal. You could really try going on a date with him, have a meal or something."
