The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex

In the evening, Yuanyuan cuddled in mom’s arms, resting his head on his mom’s arm. Though not behaving like a spoiled child usually, Yuanyuan, however, was now like a piece of sticky candy.

Dad said that as long as he accompanied his mom more, mom would stay in Ye City, and later lived with him and dad.

“Mom…” Yuanyuan called mom sweetly, a pair of round eyes fixed on his mom all the time.

Suddenly, he frowned, because he found that there seemed to be tears in his mom’s eyes.

Yuanyuan rushed out to wipe mom’s eyes and wiped the tears on his hands.

“Mom, don’t cry…” Yuanyuan, like comforting a little friend, comforted his mom.

He Xiyan closed her eyes painfully, her heart full of bitterness and complexity. She bit her lip, which almost bled.

She did not reply Yuanyuan, simply hugging him tighter so that his head was on her shoulder.

“Mom, don’t go, will you?” Yuanyuan said with grievance, “Yuanyuan love mom, and dad love mom as well.”

Yuanyuan pulled mom’s sleeve tightly. Under the light, his little face turned totally red. He really wanted his mother to stay, so that in the future, he could, like other students, have both his parents join school activities every time.

He Xiyan gave a long sigh. She covered her red eyes with her hands, from which tears poured out.

Suddenly, she wanted to nod and tell her child in her arms that she loved him and that she would always take care of him. But she couldn’t say that because she had a new family.

At this time, she did not know how to face Yuanyuan.

“Yuanyuan, why don’t you sleep now? Mom is sleepy.”

He Xiyan patted the child on the shoulder. She turned her head aside because the tearful eyes were already swollen due to crying.

Seeing mom very sad, Yuanyuan blew his nose a little, tears of grievance flowing out of his eyes.

Now that mom said she was sleepy, he then stopped talking. He simply pursed his little mouth, feeling very sad. He knew that his mother was unwilling to stay because of the dumb uncle.

But was that dumb uncle more important than Yuanyuan in mom’s eyes?

He Xiyan did not sleep all night. With the light on, she kept her eyes open overnight.

She had cried several times. It seemed that her heart was tied by a rope which could be pulled from both ends. That would make her heart ache when the rope was pulled at either side.

“Yuanyuan, mom also loves you, really loves you.”

He Xiyan said to Yuanyuan who had already fallen asleep, meanwhile stroking Yuanyuan’s pink face.

“But mom can’t stay here. Sorry, Yuanyuan!” He Xiyan said sorry, because she was not a competent mother. She had not fulfilled the responsibility of a mother as Yuanyuan grew to such an age. In the future, she could not fulfill this responsibility, either.

She gave birth to a child but did not take care of him herself. She even chose to commit suicide to end her life. No matter what she had experienced, all these were irresponsible acts.

The light in the next room was on overnight as well.

Mo Yixuan stared blankly with the rose-colored mobile phone in hand. From time to time, he would have a look at the content saved in her cell phone.

He looked at her past, looked at the photos she saved in the album, hundreds of them in total.

There were her selfies, photos of that dumb guy, and certainly, more of them were about work, as well as those of taken of local agricultural products.

These photographs were the epitome of the past three years during her disappearance.
