When Su Xi brought Lele to the Su family home, it was already dark.
Knowing that she was going to find Sister Su Rou, Lele was in a good mood all the way and even hummed a lullaby.
There's no one better than an older sister in the world; a child with an older sister is like a treasure...
Hearing this adapted song, Su Xi felt quite uncomfortable.
No child doesn't crave maternal love.
No matter how mature and sensible Lele is.
He was just a five-year-old child after all.
"Lele, do you want to find your mom and dad?" Su Xi asked her, turning around.
The child, who was humming a lullaby, suddenly fell silent.
The next second, she lowered her head, pouted, and said, "Mom and Dad don't like Lele. They don't want Lele."
"No, she'll be very happy if she knew about Lele," Su Xi comforted her.
The little child's eyes suddenly lit up like stars, "Really?"
Su Xi nodded, "Of course it's true, my sister doesn't lie."
Lele then asked, "Where are my mom and dad?"
"After dinner tonight, I'll take you to see Mom, okay?" Su Xi coaxed her step by step.
Lele was still worried and innocently asked, "What if Mommy doesn't want Lele anymore?"
Abandoned children always feel insecure.
I fear that having expectations will only lead to disappointment.
Seeing Lele's cautious look, Su Xi reached out and patted her head, "If she doesn't want you, how about I be your mom?"
Lele liked Su Xi, so she naturally agreed, "With Sister Xi'er, Sister Su Rou, and Headmistress Mom, Lele isn't lonely."
Su Xi nodded, "Yes, our Lele, a whole bunch of people are eager to pamper her."
They chatted all the way, and the car soon stopped in front of the Su family villa.
The living room was brightly lit.
Laughter and conversation could be heard coming from inside from time to time.
Su Xi was taken aback.
Did Su Rou invite other people as well?
"If I'm not mistaken, this is Lin Ye's car, right?" Zhou Jingming had sharp eyes and spotted the car parked not far away at a glance.
Su Xi looked closely.
Sure enough, it really is Lin Ye.
This surprised Su Xi even more.
Previously, Lin had always disliked Su Rou because of her, and even though Su Rou had repented later, Lin still didn't treat her well.
Unexpectedly, Lin Ye also came.
"Xi'er, Young Master Zhou, we've been waiting for you for a long time." Suddenly, a person walked out from inside.
Su Xi looked up and saw that it was Huang Yaxi.
So Lin came with Huang Yaxi?
“Su Rou said you would come too. I just heard a car engine at the door and thought it might be you. I didn’t expect it to be you.” Huang Yaxi really likes children.
I had previously visited the orphanage with Lin and met Lele there.
I was immediately drawn to Lele's adorable and beautiful appearance.
Upon seeing Lele, he picked her up without saying a word.
Lele was very polite and greeted sweetly, "Hello, Sister Yaxi."
"Hello, Lele, we meet again." Huang Yaxi pinched Lele's cheek.
The little one is so pretty. I don't know which heartless person could bear to abandon such a cute little girl.
Huang Yaxi quickly put Lele down again and said, "Su Rou has prepared a table full of dishes and has been busy by herself since this afternoon. I'll go in and help her first."
Su Xi was surprised to hear this.
The Su Rou of the past only knew how to throw tantrums like a rich young lady; she never had this kind of patience.
Now he has put aside all his work just to cook for them himself?
"Wow, does Sister Su Rou cook? Lele has never tasted her cooking before!" Lele exclaimed with anticipation.
Su Xi said, "We'll be able to taste it soon, let's go in."
The two of them each held one of Lele's hands and stepped into the hall.
Lele spotted Lin Ye at a glance and immediately rushed over, exclaiming, "Brother Lin Ye is here too!"
Lin Ye originally didn't want to come.
Huang Yaxi persisted relentlessly, leaving him no choice but to go along.
Lin also picked up Lele, his gaze falling on Su Xi and Zhou Jingming's hands clasped intimately. "I really didn't expect you two to actually come."
"He must have lost his mind," Su Xi said half-jokingly.
These words amused Lin Ye, "Forget it, let bygones be bygones."
These words are quite meaningful.
It has multiple hidden meanings.
Su Xi took a deep breath. "You're right. Let everything drift away with the wind and start anew."
Her response left Lin Ye feeling bitter.
He knew.
Su Xi was saying this to him.
After so many years of persistence, she finally chose Zhou Jingming, which destined them to be destined to be apart.
Let's keep arguing.
It only adds to each other's troubles.
"Sister Xi'er, what are you talking about? Why can't Lele understand a word?" Lele looked at Lin Ye, then at Su Xi, her face full of confusion.
Su Xi affectionately patted her hair and smiled, "It's nothing, Lele is playing with her brothers, and I'm going to help in the kitchen."
At this moment, Huang Yaxi was helping Su Rou in the kitchen.
Wearing an apron, Su Rou busied herself cooking, looking just like a virtuous wife and loving mother.
If Li Xuemei were to wake up and see Su Rou in this state, she would find it absolutely unacceptable.
After all, for this vicious woman, her daughter should be an exceptional person.
It is about standing at the pinnacle, admired by everyone.
Now, Su Rou has shed her celebrity status and become an ordinary person.
This was something Li Xuemei never expected.
"Xi'er, go sit outside and rest. Dinner will be ready soon." Su Rou wiped away her sweat and turned back to smile at her.
Su Xi still walked in, her tone indifferent, "You've only made a few dishes this afternoon, are you sure we can eat soon?"
Su Rou said shyly, "I'll speed things up."
"No need, I'll take care of the other dishes." Su Xi took the spatula from Su Rou's hand and skillfully stir-fried the vegetables in the pan.
Seeing this, Huang Yaxi gently nudged Su Rou's hand.
With a smile playing at the corners of her eyes, she lowered her voice and said, "She's not complaining that you're slow; she's just worried about you."
Su Rou pursed her lips, feeling a surge of emotion.
She had clearly seen the change in Su Xi's attitude towards her during this period.
If I hadn't forgiven her slowly...
Given Su Xi's temperament, she definitely wouldn't want to talk to her.
But Su Rou didn't take it for granted and went over to help hand over the seasonings.
The three of them worked together, and soon a simple home-cooked meal was ready.
Everyone rushed to take their seats.
Su Xi and Zhou Jingming sat together.
Lin also went with Huang Yaxi.
There was only one empty seat next to Su Rou.
Lele was originally sitting between Zhou Jingming and Su Xi, but seeing that Sister Su Rou looked lonely, she went to sit next to her.
Su Rou's heart felt a little warmed.
He patted Lele's hair and smiled happily, "Thank you, little darling."
Lele was very sensible and picked up another chicken leg for Su Rou, saying, "Sister, you worked hard cooking. Sister, eat some meat."
"Lele eats too."
Su Rou also served her some food.
Watching the heartwarming interaction between the mother and daughter, Su Xi pondered the opportune moment to confess.
