When he was in university, he had moved away from his mother, but he would visit her once a week.
From New Year's Eve until now, it had been nearly three weeks, and he hadn't visited his mother even once.
He would arrange for his mother to go for a medical check-up every six months. Not long ago, her medical report had arrived at his office, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Su Zhinian purposely pulled out his mother's medical report to make sure there was nothing wrong with it. However, he still felt uneasy.
Su Zhinian thought about it and decided to leave the company to drive to his mother's bungalow.
When Su Zhinian arrived, it was evening. The sun was setting, bathing the yard in a sea of red.
The person who opened the door was the nanny he had hired to take care of his mother. She was pleasantly surprised to see him. After greeting him, she ran upstairs. "Madam, Madam, Young Master is home."
Not long after, he saw his mother coming down the stairs with a smile on her face.
After not seeing each other for so long, his mother had been nagging him for quite some time. When the nanny was preparing dinner, his mother asked tentatively, "Do you want to have dinner here?"
Su Zhinian nodded, and his mother stood up happily to go to the kitchen. Through the exhaust fan, he could hear his mother instructing the nanny to prepare his favorite dishes.
He was alone in the living room, and the television before him was playing a cartoon. He pulled out his phone to browse through it. When he clicked into WeChat, the first thing he saw was the post Song Qingchun had posted one minute earlier.
"Today's victory, hehehe …"
There was a picture taken from her bed. There were various brands of make-up, jewelry, bags, and clothes.
Out of habit, he raised his hand to like it, but before his finger touched the red heart, he was reminded of the decision he had made the previous night. After a moment's hesitation, he pulled his finger back.
Dinner was scrumptious. The table was filled with dishes, and it seemed like every dish he liked had been prepared.
After dinner, the nanny served the fruits. Su Zhinian used a toothpick to pick up an apple. He was about to stuff it into his mouth when he heard his phone ring.
He popped the apple into his mouth and pulled out his phone as he chewed.
The apple was sweet and sour. It was very delicious, but when he saw the contents of the phone, the sweet and sour taste in his mouth disappeared. It was like he was chewing wax.
It was a simple message from Song Qingchun.
"Are you still busy? When are you coming home? "
Home … Su Zhinian stopped chewing on his apple, and his eyes that stared at his phone screen started to lose focus.
"Zhinian, why aren't you eating?" His mother pushed the plate of fruit closer to him when she noticed he hadn't moved.
"Oh." Su Zhinian came back to his senses and continued to stab another piece of apple. The phone in his palm vibrated again, and he turned to look at it. It was another message from her. "I've prepared dinner." There was even a smiley face attached to it.
Su Zhinian stared at his phone screen and did not reply. After some time, he opened his eyes and stuffed the apple into his mouth. With a face of indifference, he put the phone in his pocket.
Song Qingchun waited until 9: 30 pm, but there was no reply from Su Zhinian.
