C186 (2/2)
”It's good, it's free, it's completely different from before.”
I said, and took a long sip of melon milk.
”That little fellow …”
”It's me and his child.”
I didn't deny it, because no matter how much I didn't want to face it, I just couldn't change the fact that Jiang Yu was the father of a child.
”Does he know?”
I shook my head.
”I don't know. If he knew, would you think I would leave so easily?”
I smiled helplessly. All these years, whenever I thought about Jiang Yu, a feeling of powerlessness would surge through my heart.
The feeling was suffocating.
”Big sister has been alone with your child for so many years. You must have had a hard time …”
Mingyu said, and I could hear the pain in his voice.
I shook my head, used to it.
”Then... Will you go back? ”
”I don't know.”
Mingyu lowered her head when she heard my answer.
”If the next time you want to leave... Can you bring me? I have no other lovers besides you... I don't want to... Once again, I've been abandoned … ”
Ming Yu lowered her head and said these words with a hint of urgency in her voice.
I was a little heartbroken now, Mingyu looked a little like myself when I was a child.
He longed for the love of the person he cared about, finally got it and lost it, so he became extremely insecure.
I took his hand.
Ming Yu raised her head, her eyes shining like the stars.
”Really? ”It's a deal!”
As he spoke, he extended his left pinky.
I smiled helplessly and made an agreement with him.
”Oh right, don't tell anyone about my return this time around.”
”Brother Zi Jin, you don't want to say?”
I nodded.
Although he felt it was strange, he did not ask anymore.
The most important reason why I didn't want to tell anyone was because I didn't want to be disturbed.
It doesn't matter who it is. I can't promise to leave anything behind, so let some people think I've completely disappeared into their lives.
The design exhibition began very soon. Before it began, Mingyu took us directly to Shanghai. Since I had to carry out the design work myself, I was very busy during those few days.
However, to my surprise, this design exhibition collided with the domestic designer convention, which was why talented designers from all over the country gathered in Shanghai at this time of year.
This is a natural condition for my design exhibition.
It was probably because my influence in France had already spread to the country and Helen, the homecoming designer, had received an invitation from the convention of designers as well.
I didn't think that they would meet any familiar faces in such a situation, so I took the invitation and left.
In the venue.
After four years of separation, I never thought I'd one day be able to return here as a new person.
This was the culmination of my career and the beginning of my new beginning.
Returning to the familiar place, I felt a mixture of emotions for a moment.
