Duan Dinglan finally came back to his senses after feeling the physical touch, and forced his wandering consciousness back to reality.
"Xiao Qi?"
Duan Dinglan subconsciously reached out and pulled her into his arms, asking in surprise:
"Why didn't you take a rest?"
Song Rushuang hesitated for a long time and still did not tell Duan Dinglan what had just happened.
She buried her head in Duan Dinglan's chest and said in a muffled voice, "Xiao Qi misses grandma and her uncles and aunts."
Song Rushuang could clearly feel Duan Dinglan's body stiffen, but she quickly returned to normal.
She sighed slightly, then reached out and gently patted Song Rushuang on the back. Her pleasant and melodious voice slowly rang out beside Song Rushuang:
"Okay, Mom will take Xiaoqi and Yangyang home today. Xiaoqi will be able to see grandma and her uncles and aunts soon."
Two hours later, it was already noon.
This afternoon, Chen Yao did not come back.
According to Shen Yao's identity, he doesn't have that much time to deal with his personal affairs.
It should be normal that I don’t have time to come back like today.
But Song Rushuang discovered that Duan Dinglan seemed a little lost.
Although they had been in Los Angeles for a long time, they didn't bring much luggage with them.
If you want to leave, you can really leave at any time.
So, just after lunch, Duan Dinglan put two hundred yuan on the cabinet in the entrance hall.
Then he went into the room, hugged Duan Zhiyang, and prepared to leave.
The speed of the process was beyond Song Rushuang's expectations.
She was somewhat uneasy.
Before leaving, she couldn't help but ask, "Mom, do we have to leave now? Why don't we wait for Uncle Shen to come back and say goodbye to him before leaving?"
Duan Dinglan was startled, and she smiled with a feigned ease:
"Why wait? Didn't Xiao Qi say you missed grandma and uncle and aunt?"
With just one glance, Song Rushuang could see Duan Dinglan's uneasiness.
Sure enough, she guessed it right.
If Duan Dinglan could really remain indifferent to Chen Yao's attack, then that would be a real problem.
Song Rushuang suddenly felt a little regretful.
She wondered if she had made the wrong decision.
If it is something that both of us are willing to do, then as a daughter, should she still worry about being dragged down by her mother?
Once this thought came up, it immediately shook my heart and soul.
She felt as if she had done something selfish.
Song Rushuang pursed her lips:
"Xiao Qi wants to go home, but Xiao Qi doesn't want her mother to regret it."
Duan Dinglan probably didn't expect Song Rushuang to speak so bluntly.
She felt her voice tremble as she spoke:
"Xiao Qi, there is nothing in this world that is more important to me than you and Xiao Liu. I can't take any risks, do you understand?"
Song Rushuang looked deeply into Duan Dinglan's eyes.
But Duan Dinglan had already withdrawn his gaze:
"Come on, Mom will take you home!"
What Duan Dinglan didn't expect was that Chen Yao had returned to the apartment less than an hour after they left.
Of course, what he faced was just a deserted apartment.
After walking around the room, he found a prepared meal in the kitchen. Next to it was a piece of paper with a few words scribbled on it: "Remember to eat."
Chen Yao felt a pang of pain in his heart, and suddenly thought of what others had said to him.
Duan Dinglan never went to school.
It probably took some courage to write these words.
Shen Yao suddenly felt his eyes getting slightly hot.
He walked to the entrance and happened to see two hundred yuan again.
Without thinking too much, he knew who left the money.
The sadness in my heart disappeared, and was replaced by a feeling of being both amused and helpless.
At the same time, it also strengthened what he was determined to do.
At the same time, Duan Dinglan and her children boarded the train home.
The train ticket was a bit expensive, and if she was alone, Duan Dinglan would probably be reluctant to spend the money.
But she was not alone, she had two children with her.
You can't just focus on saving money and ignore the comfort and safety of your children.
So, after much thought, I decided to take them on the train.
The journey was uneventful.
After three days and two nights, the three people who returned to Baishui Village were already exhausted.
More than a month has passed in a flash. Standing at the door of the Song family, Duan Dinglan actually felt as if she was in another world.
She kept her hand on the door handle for a long time, but she didn't push the door open.
After a while, Duan Dinglan suddenly let go of his hand, squatted in front of Song Rushuang, and asked softly:
"Xiao Qi, after separating from your father, Mom can no longer stay here. Do you want to stay here with Grandma, or do you want to leave with Mom?"
Song Rushuang replied without even thinking:
"Xiaoqi, don't be separated from your mother!"
But she also couldn't bear to leave the Song family, where she had her grandmother and uncles and aunts who loved her the most.
After comparing the two sides, Song Rushuang still chose her mother.
Grandma is taken care of by uncles and aunts, but her mother is only taken care of by her and her brother.
Duan Dinglan's eyes were filled with tears, and she quickly hugged Song Rushuang and Duan Zhiyang into her arms.
"Okay, Mom promised Xiaoqi that we will never be separated."
As soon as the words fell, a familiar voice suddenly appeared behind him:
"Xiao Qi?!"
Duan Dinglan stood up and just as he turned his head, he was hugged by the man.
Zhang Cuizhi's voice was choked with sobs and panic: "Ding Lan, where have you been for so long? Do you know how worried we are about you?"
Under the attack of the two, Song Rushuang called out obediently, "Auntie."
Zhang Cuizhi's gaze also fell on Song Rushuang.
The first thing she noticed was, of course, the injured half of Song Rushuang's face.
Previously, Mr. Bai had helped her to check the wound on her face.
But the old man said that this injury was no worse than the one on his leg, and if he wanted to cure it, he would have to wait until later.
I dare not say it, and I dare not ask it.
Although he didn't understand why such an injury couldn't be treated immediately, there was no reason for Old Bai to lie to the mother and daughter.
In this way, the injury on Song Rushuang's face was delayed.
Zhang Cuizhi's eyes widened. She let go of Duan Dinglan and kept her eyes fixed on Song Rushuang's face.
How much she hoped this was a fake prank?
So, Zhang Cuizhi forced a dry smile and asked in a nonchalant manner:
"Why put this on the child's face? I saw it, but if the mother saw it, wouldn't she be scared to death?"
Duan Dinglan and Song Rushuang didn't say anything.
Zhang Cuizhi's heart also visibly skipped a beat:
"So, is the scar on Xiao Qi's face real?!"
Before Song Rushuang could answer, there was a sound of something falling in the yard.
Everyone quickly pushed open the gate to look, and saw Old Lady Song collapsed by the door.
It seems that he has lost consciousness.
