124 Can I watch? (1/2)

”How about we wait a month. If there is still no progress, then we take action.”

Hearing her mother's suggestion, Han Lili nods her head. ”We'll do it like that then.”

….

”We are going to test a new game.” Su Lian inwardly scolds herself for forgetting that her son is sitting at the table with them.

Su Yichen nods his head in understanding. ”What kind of game?” He asks tilting his head.

Han Yuan: ”A game that makes babies.”

Su Lian: ”...”

Su Yichen's eyes glisten with curiosity. ”I've never heard of a game that can make babies. Is it fun? Can I play?”

”No, it's for adults. Your mommy and daddy only.” Han Yuan smirks evilly.

”Can I watch you play?”

”Enough!” Su Lian slams her hand on the table, grabs her son and walks out of the restaurant.

Such a shameless bastard will corrupt her little, innocent son.

Su Yichen pouts while being dragged out by her. He just wants to watch them play. Why is his mommy so angry?

Watching the scene from afar Liu Yumei and Han Lili shake their heads in dismay.

”What do you think he said to make her leave like that?”

”It's hard to guess, mom. Knowing him, it could be anything.”

”Aren't you her friend? Why don't you ask her?”

Han Lili looks down at her food pitifully. ”I don't think she'll want to talk to for now. She probably thinks I'm the one who told Yuan about their son.”

Liu Yumei pats her daughter's hand. ”I'll make Yuan explain it to her and clear up the misunderstanding.”

...

Su Lian arrives outside before remembering that she doesn't have her car with her. Han Yuan was the one who drove them here directly from the abandoned building.

She doesn't have her phone either. Earlier on, she had left her house in a rush to find her son.

Han Yuan hurries out after them. ”Wait, let me drive you home.”

Su Lian pretends not to hear him. She scans the sparse crowd, looking to see if she can borrow someone's phone and get a cab.

”Mommy, we should go home with daddy. He's waiting for us.” Su Yichen looks up at her with a big smile on his face. He is very happy to be able to use the word 'daddy'.

”Fine.” Su Lian says resentfully and they get inside his car. Her mood is still quite bitter. She sits quietly in the back seat with Su Yichen snuggled beside her. Once again, they journey in silence.

”I'm sorry.” Han Yuan says after a long while.
