The day didn't go very smoothly, so Ye Shi brought Xiao Zhe back halfway through the event.
Xiao Zhe wasn't in a good mood and fell asleep on the way back.
Back home, Ye Shi stayed by her child's side, looking at the child's sleeping face, feeling as if a huge stone was blocking her heart.
She never imagined this circle would be so complicated, because her poor family background even affected her children.
"Baby, I'm so sorry for making you suffer today."
She bent down and gently kissed the child's forehead, her eyes filled with heartache.
After leaving the room, her phone beeped with a message.
A friend added me on WeChat. Their profile picture was a blue sky, and their nickname was a string of numbers.
She glanced at it but ignored it, and went back to her room to take a shower and rest.
It wasn't until after 11 p.m. that Fu Zelian called back.
Ye Shi was already fast asleep. She groggily turned over and took her phone out from under her pillow.
"Asleep?"
In the video call, he was still sitting at his desk, looking somewhat tired.
Ye Shi barely opened her eyes and stammered, "Um, I'm going to sleep."
Is the child asleep?
"Um."
He lit a cigarette, the camera lens filled with swirling smoke, and asked, "How was the picnic today?"
"fine."
Seeing how busy he was, Ye Shi didn't want to tell him what had happened that day.
"Teacher Liu sent me some videos and pictures of your outing. You seemed to be having a lot of fun with the children."
Ye Shi, having shaken off her sleepiness and regained consciousness, did not refute his words, but said calmly, "Of course everyone is happy when the school organizes an outing."
"Hmm, are you sleepy?"
"I've been very sleepy."
"Then go to sleep."
"good."
Fu Zelian hung up the phone.
Ye Shi put down her phone, but couldn't fall asleep, tossing and turning under the covers.
She finally drifted off to sleep around 4 a.m.
He didn't wake up for a long time the next morning until the maid came to remind him.
Ye Shi got up and looked at the alarm clock by the bed. It was already past nine o'clock. She hurriedly got out of bed.
"Oh no, we have to send Xiao Zhe to kindergarten!"
The maid reminded her, "Madam, the driver and bodyguards have already taken the young master there. He doesn't want you to be called and wants you to rest more."
"This child..."
Her thoughtfulness made her, as a mother, feel ashamed of herself.
The child went to school today, and she didn't have much to do, so she planned to go for a walk nearby and then visit Sangsang.

"Hey beautiful, want to come in and listen to some music? You can sign up for classes or not."
I passed a newly opened store in the mall, and the staff were handing out flyers at the door.
Ye Shi took it casually and glanced at it. It had all kinds of musical instruments, with the guzheng and violin being the main instruments.
"Is this a newly opened store?"
"Yes, our boss just returned from studying abroad. He's a professor in the music department of a famous American university. He's very young and capable. If you're interested, you can sign up for a class."
"No need, I used to study music, but I haven't studied for a long time." She returned the flyer.
"That's best if you've already learned it. If you attend a couple of classes, you'll remember it very quickly."
The shop assistant warmly grabbed her arm and led her into the store.
Unable to refuse Ye Shi's hospitality, she was led to the hall.
The interior space is quite large, and the staff at the front desk are all young and beautiful. There are already quite a few customers coming in to learn more.
"Please have a seat, I'll get you a glass of water."
Ye Shi sat down on the sofa, saw the brochure on the table, picked it up and glanced at it.
Seeing these musical instruments brings back memories of my university days.
"Shishi?"
A surprised male voice rang in my ears.
She looked up and saw Zhu Huai walking towards her, followed by two shop assistants.
