When Kang'an heard that her mother would take her to see her father the next day, she finally smiled happily and jumped up and down, saying loudly to Xiaohua, "Thank you, Mom! Thank you, Mom!"
Children are the most innocent creatures in the world; they can switch between happiness and unhappiness in an instant.
Kang'an knew her mother was taking her to see her father the next day, so she asked her mother to put her to bed early.
The next morning, before Xiaohua woke up, Kang'an had already woken up and was lying by his mother's bedside, waiting for her to wake up and take her to find her father. Xiaohua saw how eager he was.
It's a little heartbreaking; this girl was raised by her parents for three years, while others only cared for her for a little over six months.
She seems to be very close to other people, and Xiaohua is somewhat jealous.
After she and her child washed, dressed, and ate breakfast, she called He Yan, but he didn't answer even after three calls. Looking at her child's expectant face...
Xiaohua really didn't know how to tell her that her father wasn't answering the phone and her mother didn't know where to find him. In the end, she had no choice but to call He Yu and ask her to contact He Yan through He Yu.
She scolded He Yan that day and told him to get out, just because of that? So He Yan can go for days without coming to see the child?
Xiaohua felt that this person's love for children made her somewhat suspicious.
If this happened to Xiaohua, no matter how fiercely she fought with He Yan, she would never stop visiting her child just because the child was with He Yan.
He wasn't the one who conceived or gave birth to the child; he only cared for the child for a little over six months. How could that relationship compare to that of a mother?
"Mom, why isn't Dad answering the phone?"
Kang An became anxious when his mother called several times without answering.
"Dad is probably busy in class, let's call later."
Xiao Hua made it up.
"Mom, does Dad not want me anymore? Does he not want me like before?"
Xiao Hua's heart broke when she heard the child say that.
She knelt down and hugged her daughter tightly in her arms, kissing her forehead repeatedly.
"Didn't Mommy tell you, my dear? Before you become an adult, while you are still at an age where you need someone to take care of you, during this time, no one else is that important except for Mommy. So whether they want you or not is not important. Don't feel sad."
Just remember that Mom will always want you, Mom will always love you, and you will always be the person Mom values more than life itself. Don't worry too much about whether others want you or not, even if that person is Dad.
As Xiaohua spoke, her voice became hoarse and her eyes reddened. She suddenly regretted letting He Yan come into contact with the child.
He had survived those three years of hardship and difficulty, so why couldn't he get through these six months? Why did he insist on having He Yan help him take care of the child?
If He Yan stops caring for and accompanying Kang An because of her, how hurt would Kang An be?
"I know my mother is the most important, but I still really want my father."
The child started crying as he was talking.
Little Flower started crying too, because of what she did.
"Which child doesn't want their parents by their side? You're just too selfish, driving her father away."
The aunt suddenly blurted out this sentence.
"Shut up! If you piss me off, you can get out of here too!"
Xiaohua was already in a bad mood.
Auntie threw the rag she was holding onto the ground.
"If it weren't for He Yan's sake, do you think I wanted to work at your house? Get out if you want."
The aunt packed her things and left.
Xiao Hua slapped his forehead. What was all this about? Why did everything change after he and He Yan had a fight, and why did his life start to become chaotic?
The aunt has left too, who will take care of this child?
Where could she find a nanny who wouldn't abuse the child and was kind to the child?
While comforting the crying child, Xiaohua called He Yu.
He Yu was still at He Yan's house and hadn't left for work yet when she received a call from Xiao Hua, thinking it was about school.
"What's wrong? What's the matter at school that's so urgent that you're calling me so early in the morning?"
Xiaohua has a loud voice and a quick temper.
"Where is He Yan? Tell him to come out. I want to arrange a place to meet him, and I'll bring the child to see him!"
When He Yu heard that it wasn't about school, she realized that He Yu had already told her yesterday while they were drinking that she would never interfere in He Yan's affairs again. So, she called her early this morning to ask where He Yan was.
Should we let her handle it or not?
"If you want to find He Yan, why don't you just call him yourself!"
He Yu was somewhat speechless. She wasn't a middleman between the two of them; they had to go through her to communicate.
"I've called him several times but he hasn't answered. Can you do me a favor? My child is crying and demanding his help."
Xiaohua spoke very urgently.
He Yu quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'll go find him right now. He's probably drunk again last night and sleeping in his room. Tell me a place and I'll have him go there."
Xiaohua took her child to the agreed-upon place early in the morning to wait.
She didn't know how to discuss the child with He Yan, but she also knew He Yan's request: that he break up with Zhou Musheng and be with him.
Then the family of three lived together from then on. This was a good thing for He Yan and the child, but what about Ye Xiaohua herself? Was she willing?
She simply didn't want to, even without Zhou Musheng. The problems between her and He Yan had nothing to do with Zhou Musheng.
Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for your child? Xiaohua questioned herself.
The answer is no!
She was very clear about her attitude.
Xiao Hua was quite surprised to see He Yan again after not having seen He Yan for a while.
He Yan looked dejected and haggard, and he had lost a lot of weight. It seemed that he had been torturing himself a lot during this period.
But what's the point of this self-torture? She won't feel the slightest bit of pity for him because of it, just like when she and her daughter were abandoned by the He family and by him.
She didn't wallow in self-pity or torture herself and her child; instead, she focused on quickly becoming strong and growing up, figuring out how to raise her child well and make a living.
She hates men who like to torture themselves when faced with problems, regardless of whether they are men or women.
"dad"
When Kang An finally saw her father, whom she had been longing for day and night, she didn't feel the joy and excitement she had imagined. Instead, she felt somewhat timid and afraid, and even when she called out "Dad," her voice was very soft.
"Oh, baby, are you missing your dad?" He Yan gave a wry smile.
"Dad, what's wrong?" she asked cautiously, clutching her sleeve.
"Daddy, it's okay, baby, don't worry. Come here, let Daddy give you a hug."
He Yan reached out to hug Kang An, but Kang An clung tightly to Xiao Hua's waist and refused to go over.
"What's wrong, baby? Didn't you miss your dad? Mommy brought you to see your dad. Don't you want your dad to hug you?" Kang An's behavior was a little strange.
