The girl's sudden crying startled Feng Guang. She hurriedly patted Xiao Xiao's back and tried to soften her voice as much as possible. She said softly, "It's okay... Xiao Xiao's mother will find out about Xiao Xiao one day."
"Really? Really?" Xiaoxiao sobbed, her eyes brimming with tears, each tear falling like a broken string of pearls.
Feng Guang's heart softened. She gently wiped away Xiao Xiao's tears with her fingers and whispered, "Of course, believe me. No mother in this world will not recognize her own child. It's just a matter of time. Xiao Xiao is a good child. How could your mother bear to abandon you?"
"Hmm..." Xiaoxiao's emotions finally calmed down a bit. She buried her head in Fengguang's arms again, her voice still thick with nasal congestion. "I believe you... I've been waiting for Mom for so long. Dad told me... it's just a little bit more time before Mom knows about me. Just a little bit more time... Xiaoxiao will wait."
The way this little girl is behaving now is completely different from how spoiled she was before.
Feng Guang felt a growing sense of unease, but with Xiao Xiao's trembling voice, she couldn't care less about what might have happened to Xiao Xiao's mother. She just kept urging the little girl in An Fu's arms, "Xiao Xiao, I'll take you home, okay?"
"No..." Xiaoxiao hugged Fengguang's neck tightly, "I don't want to go home!"
Feng Guang couldn't understand why she was so resistant to going home. "Why don't you want to go home?"
“There’s no mom when I go home!” Xiaoxiao said, pursing her lips and shivering. “And dad’s been acting weirder and weirder…”
"Your dad is getting weirder and weirder?"
"I don't know... Dad will still smile at me and tell me stories... But I'm afraid of Dad..." Xiaoxiao said innocently, "I don't want to go home."
Perhaps she is still young and there are many things she doesn't understand, but she has a strong innate intuition. Sometimes her father would look at her for a long time without saying a word. This had happened before, but recently it's different. Xiaoxiao can't quite put her finger on what's different. She only knows that she feels uncomfortable all over as soon as she walks into the house.
If we were to describe the scenery, it would be oppressive.
Feng Guang couldn't understand why Xiao Xiao was so reluctant to go home. She remembered what the waiter had said: in the past, a Miss Lu would bring Xiao Xiao to eat cake, and Miss Lu was the principal's aunt. She then said, "How about I take Xiao Xiao to her aunt's house?"
“No…” Xiaoxiao hugged Fengguang even tighter. “I don’t want to go to Aunt’s house. I want to stay with Mom.”
Feng Guang was now in a dilemma. She patted Xiao Xiao's head and said, "Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao, your request is really difficult for me."
Based on Xiaoxiao's words, Fengguang was unsure whether Xiaoxiao's mother was seriously ill and lying in the hospital, or had already passed away, but in any case, her mother's condition was very bad.
Just as Feng Guang was holding the little girl and feeling extremely troubled, another person walked into the cake shop—it was Xia Chao.
As soon as he saw his daughter in the corner, he exclaimed, "Fengguang!"
Feng Guang looked up and saw that it was her father. Before she could respond, the little girl in her arms unexpectedly called out, "Grandpa!"
The glory days have come to a standstill.
