Chapter 127 I Will Stand by Your Side
Mu Nanyan's mood was so complicated that it was hard to describe. She had never thought that Su Muyang would take the initiative to find Tang Yutong, and she had never thought that he would go to such great lengths to see her.
The scene of their breakup involuntarily emerged in her mind - his indifferent back, her helpless tears, and the words "Let's break up."
She thought that they were strangers after that, but now, he had entered her life again.
On the other end of the phone, Tang Yutong saw Mu Nanyan was silent and couldn't help but asked gossipingly:
"Yanyan, do you know why he left back then?"
Mu Nanyan was stunned for a moment and asked:
"You know?"
"If I knew, why would I ask you?"
Tang Yutong said helplessly,
"When he contacted me, I asked him about it, but he just said he wanted to tell you first, so... I didn't get anything out of him."
Mu Nanyan's heart trembled slightly, as if something touched her lightly. She whispered:
"He tried to explain it to me today, but I didn't listen."
Tang Yutong asked tentatively:
"Yanyan, do you still like him?"
This question was like a key that instantly opened Mu Nanyan's long-forgotten memories, and the scenes of her and Su Muyang came flooding back like a tide.
They walked side by side on campus, he secretly slipped her a note full of love words in the library, and he stayed by her bedside all night when she was sick... During those three years, they hardly ever quarreled, and Su Muyang never did anything to let her down.
But in the end, he broke up without any warning and disappeared without a trace.
"I don't know either."
Mu Nanyan's voice was a little vague.
"After so many years, I can't really say whether he and I like each other or not."
She didn't want to continue this topic, so she changed the subject:
"You knew Su Muyang would appear at the banquet, why didn't you tell me in advance? Do you know what I went through today?"
Tang Yutong smiled somewhat guiltily:
"I just wanted to give you a surprise! What happened to you?"
Mu Nanyan sighed and whispered:
"I took Chenchen with me today, and we met..."
"Su Muyang doesn't know that you have a son, right? Then your relationship is ruined, right?"
Tang Yutong interrupted Mu Nanyan excitedly before she finished speaking. Mu Nanyan was speechless and said helplessly:
"Su Muyang didn't see Chenchen, but Lu Yiran did."
"What?!"
Tang Yutong's voice instantly rose an octave.
"Then... then he recognized it?"
"I don't know either."
There was a hint of fatigue in Mu Nanyan's voice.
"But I feel like he's suspicious. I'm afraid Chenchen's affairs can't be concealed for much longer. You've really killed me. If I had known this would happen, I would never have taken Chenchen with me."
Tang Yutong's voice was full of apology:
"I'm sorry, Yanyan, I hurt you."
Mu Nanyan shook her head, even though Tang Yutong couldn't see:
"Forget it, it's okay. Let's take it one step at a time. I'm just afraid... Lu Yiran will compete with me for the custody of Chenchen."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and Tang Yutong's voice became firm:
"Yanyan, don't worry, no matter what happens, I will always stand by you."
Mu Nanyan said "hmm" softly and hung up the phone. She leaned on the sofa, looking at the ceiling, feeling mixed emotions.

Mu Nanyan brought Chenchen to the preschool class of an international school. This school is famous for cultivating children's interests and language skills. It has an elegant environment and complete facilities.
Chenchen grew up in Country F and speaks F language fluently, but Mu Nanyan hopes that he can be exposed to more different languages and cultures, so she decided to bring him here for a visit.
Mu Nanyan held Chenchen's hand and strolled around the campus of the international school. The sun shone on the green playground, and the children's laughter and cheers rose and fell. The whole campus was full of vitality and vigor.
Mu Nanyan observed the surrounding environment as she walked, and was very satisfied with the place. She looked down at Chenchen and asked softly:
"Chenchen, do you like it here?"
Chenchen looked up and around, with no special expression on his face. He just replied calmly:
"fine."
Mu Nanyan noticed that his tone was a little reluctant, so she squatted down, looked him in the eyes, and said gently:
"Chenchen, if you don't like it, you can tell me. It's okay. We can look for other schools."
Chenchen pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally said:
"Sister Yan, I want to be a soldier like my uncle. I like the army."
Mu Nanyan was stunned for a moment, then she laughed and reached out to rub his hair:
"Chenchen, you're still too young now. When you grow up, if you still want to be a soldier, we can go again, okay?"
Chenchen frowned and asked with some dissatisfaction:
"Then when will I grow up?"
Mu Nanyan was amused by his innocent question and said softly:
"That's still a long way off, Chenchen. The most important thing for you right now is to study hard and grow up well. Only then can you become as great as your uncle in the future, okay?"
Chenchen listened and nodded seriously:
"Okay, then Sister Yan, let's choose this school. I like it very much."
Mu Nanyan smiled with relief, stood up and took his hand:
"Then let's go. I'll take you to handle the formalities."
"Uh-huh."
Chenchen responded obediently and followed Mu Nanyan towards the admissions office.
After completing all the formalities, Mu Nanyan prepared to leave with Chenchen. Just as they reached the school gate, a little girl suddenly ran in from outside and rushed towards Chenchen in a hurry.
Before Mu Nanyan could react, the little girl collided with Chenchen, and they both fell to the ground with a dull thud.
Mu Nanyan was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward to help Chenchen up and asked with concern:
"Chenchen, are you okay? Is there any pain?"
Chenchen shook his head and dusted himself off.
"Sister Yan, I'm fine."
After saying that, he turned around to help the little girl, his face full of worry:
"Are you okay?"
The little girl sat on the ground and rubbed her forehead, which was a little red from the collision.
Her little mouth pursed, and her eyes were slightly red, but she did not cry. Instead, she raised her head and said to Chenchen in a baby voice:
"Brother, I'm sorry I bumped into you."
Chenchen shook his head and said seriously:
"It's okay. Does it hurt?"
Mu Nanyan watched the interaction between the two little ones, and her heart warmed. She squatted down and asked the little girl:
"Little boy, why are you here alone? Where are your parents?"
The little girl blinked her big eyes and pointed behind her:
"Pretty aunt, I'm not alone."
At this moment, a familiar voice came from a distance:
"Yan Yan."
Mu Nanyan was stunned for a moment and looked up subconsciously, only to see Su Muyang walking towards her. He was wearing casual clothes, with a faint smile on his face, and looking at her gently.
