We both had a ride, but it was much more pleasant to get along with Dai Ke than Luo Ming.
Deke is a very easy-going person and she did not hide the fact that she was divorcing Luo Ming.
"Since you're not happy together, let's break up. It will still leave a good impression on each other."
Su Man didn't say anything. As an outsider, it was better not to say anything.
...
As soon as she entered the door, Su Man heard a barbell-like laughter.
Joy rides a small wooden horse, gosling like a big goose.
The reason should be An Ning who was a few steps away. An Ning had poor balance and dared not move after sitting on it. He was even more stupid than a wooden horse.
The two children were having fun, and An Ning didn't notice Suman until she came over.
"Mother!"
An Ning ran towards Su Man, raised her hands and asked for a hug, "Mom~"
Su Man picked up An Ning and smiled at Xi Yue, "Did An Ning behave well today? Did she cause you any trouble?"
Joy was uncharacteristically silent. She looked at Deke behind Suman without saying a word.
Deke squatted down and stretched out her hand to Joy, "Joy, Mom is here to see you."
"Thanks."
Joy had no expression on her face, her hands tightly gripping the handle of the wooden horse, with no intention of moving over.
Su Man's eyes moved between the two of them, and she vaguely sensed something.
From the conversation with Decor just now, I can find that Decor is a woman who puts her career first. She not only runs this makeup school, but also has a makeup brand named after Luo Ming.
As she is now, she must have very little time to accompany Xi Yue. In addition, since she proposed divorce from Luo Ming, Xi Yue must treat her with a little distance.
But judging by the joy and resistance on his face, it might be more serious than estrangement.
As expected, Deke was not surprised by Xiyue's attitude. She withdrew her hand awkwardly and said, "Mom bought you a toy. I'll give it to you later, okay?"
Joyful body swayed along with the little wooden horse without saying a word.
“…”
There was awkwardness in the air, and Deca didn't know whether to take it or not.
"Auntie, what toy did you bring? Can An Ning take a look?"
An Ning's childish voice broke the deadlock. He looked at Decor with a smile, and the curve of his mouth could melt people.
Seeing that Xiyue didn't refute, Deke nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, Auntie will get it right away."
After a while, Decor came in carrying two large bags, with miscellaneous toys scattered all over the floor. Any child who saw them would be so happy that they would lose their minds.
But Xiyue was very proud and looked up, refusing to even look. This made Deke's hand holding the toy freeze in mid-air, in a dilemma.
At this moment, An Ning pointed at the toy in Deke's hand with a surprised look on her face, "Oh, isn't this the toy Xiaohua got from kindergarten last time? Auntie bought it for her, so cool!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Joy, who was sitting on the little wooden horse, moved his ears.
An Ning took the toy from Deke's hand and brought it to Joy with her short legs. "Look, it's a castle."
Although Xi Yue was angry that Deke abandoned her and her father, she was a child after all and could not resist the magic of the limited edition toy, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
An Ning continued, "Shall we open it? An Ning really wants to play with it."
Joy finally got off the wooden horse and unpacked the package with An Ning, muttering, "You're the one who wants to play, not me."
An Ning's eyes turned into little crescents when she smiled, "Well, An Ning wants to play."
...
Seeing them start playing with toys, Suman breathed a sigh of relief, but when she turned around, she saw Dai Ke wiping her tears.
"Sister Deke, you..."
Decor waved her hand and pointed outside.
The two walked out into the corridor. Decor took out a small mirror, wiped away her tears with a tissue, and apologized, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"No."
Su Man shook her head. “You must have had a hard time these years.”
Deke laughed at herself. "Is it hard? In Xiyue's eyes, I'm a bad mother. I leave early and come back late every day. Every time I promise to go somewhere with her, I always break the promise. In Luo Ming's eyes, I'm also an incompetent wife. I come home drunk every night and hang out with people he hates."
"You are doing this for this family too." Su Man said softly.
"Yes, Luo Ming has his own persistence. He won't cooperate with those he dislikes, and sometimes he offends people without even realizing it. So even though he is full of talent, he encountered obstacles everywhere in the circle at the beginning. We all come from ordinary families, with no background or connections, and we can only rely on ourselves. He thinks he can rely on his own ability, but in fact, ability alone cannot make him famous in this circle."
Deke reminisced, "I remember when he had just graduated and wanted to become my apprentice, he visited several times but nothing happened. Finally, one day, his sincerity moved the teacher. But what he didn't know was that I had secretly stuffed a few wads of cash into the box of oranges I gave him that day."
"Then, does Mr. Luo Ming know this?"
"have no idea."
Decor shook her head. "If he knew, he would rather give up. Just like if he knew I was drinking until midnight to help him get connections, he wouldn't be willing to let me run around for him."
Su Man sighed inwardly. It seemed that this was the reason why they were drifting further and further apart. They loved each other, yet they were also alienated from each other.
"But I really thank you." Deke said suddenly.
Su Man was surprised, "Thank me for what?"
"Tell him about the recommendation." Decor blinked. "He came to me out of the blue to apologize. It really scared me."
