The director assumed that Little Red Bean's parents and Little Rice Cake's parents didn't know each other, so he warmly introduced them to each other. "Miss Song, hello, this is Little Rice Cake's uncle, Mr. Xu Jiamu."
When the director said Xu Jiamu's name, the man carrying Little Red Bean was slightly surprised, but quickly returned to normal. He continued to play with Little Red Bean, but from the corner of his eyes, he glanced over at Xu Jiamu a few times.
The director smiled at Xu Jiamu and continued, "Mr. Xu, I'm sure you know her. She's the famous celebrity, Miss Song Xiangsi. This is her husband, Mr. Jiang, Jiang Licheng."
She aborted his child... then married someone else, and became a stepmother to someone else's child...
When the director introduced them, Xu Jiamu clenched his fists. Because he used too much force, his nails started to bleed.
After Jiang Licheng heard the director's introduction, he carried Little Red Bean with one arm, turned around, and smiled at Xu Jiamu. He reached his hand out. "Mr. Xu."
Like a robot, Xu Jiamu reached his hand out, and said in a soft voice, "Hello, Mr. Jiang."
When Xu Jiamu and Jiang Licheng let go of each other, Song Xiangsi, who was standing beside Jiang Licheng, naturally and naturally reached her hand out. She smiled at Xu Jiamu and said respectfully, "Mr. Xu, thank you for taking care of Little Red Bean."
She called him Mr. Xu, her voice calm and emotionless, as though they had never met before, and this was the first time they met.
Xu Jiamu stared unwaveringly at her for a long while, then raised his hand to shake hers.
Just like before, even in the summer, her hand was still slightly cold, and soft to the touch. It made his heart tremble uncontrollably.
Xu Jiamu used a lot of strength to calmly say, "You're welcome, Miss Song."
Song Xiangsi gave him a calm smile, and without another word, she pulled her hand away. She turned to look at the director, and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry about today, it took me so long to get off work. It's getting late, we'll be leaving first."
The Dean smiled and said, "Goodbye."
Song Xiangsi replied with a smile, then glanced at Jiang Licheng. Jiang Licheng said "Goodbye" to Xu Jiamu, then left with Song Xiangsi, shoulder to shoulder, carrying Little Red Bean.
A long time after she left, Xu Jiamu was still standing there in a daze. The lights in the room elongated his shadow.
After Little Rice Cake finished eating, he noticed that Xu Jiamu wasn't moving. He got down from his chair and walked over to him, tugging on his pants. "Uncle, let's go home too."
Xu Jiamu's expression was calm, as though nothing had happened. He bent down, picked up Little Rice Cake, grabbed his bag, bid farewell to the principal, and left the kindergarten.
When they returned to Mian Xiu Garden, Lu Jinnian and Qiao Anhao had also returned home. Madam Chen was just about to prepare dinner when Qiao Anhao opened the door. She smiled at Xu Jiamu, then realized that something was wrong with him. His face was exceptionally pale, and she couldn't help but ask worriedly, "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? "
Xu Jiamu shook his head, placing Little Rice Cake on the floor. He then handed his bag to Qiao Anhao, and hurriedly said "I'm leaving first". Without waiting for her to react, he turned to leave.
