Tianjin Airport.
After two hours of flying. Li Rouxi was about to see fei. The lively little girl was her source of happiness. As Li Rouxi thought of Fei, all her worries and frustration disappeared.
She pushed her luggage and just as she got out of the passageway, she saw her daughter holding a sign that read, "Welcome home to the most beautiful cutest and capable mother". How dumbfounding and warm!
"Mommy, I'm here!" Fei waved at Li Rouxi, her small face smiling brilliantly.
Xuan Lulu, who held Fei in the crowd, stood in a conspicuous position, smiling gently.
Today happened to be the weekend, so they went to pick up Li Rouxi.
Li Rouxi quickened her pace and arrived in front of his friend Xuan Lu. She took her daughter from Xuan Lu embrace, and the mother and daughter kissed and hug. Everything was warm and sweet.
"Thank you, Lulu." After caught up with her daughter, she thanked Lulu for taking care of Fei these days.
"Rouxi, isn't saying thanks a little too distanced. Besides, I watched Fei grow up, and she is like my daughter too." Lulu looked at Fei while doting on her.
"Let's go, we're going home." Lulu drove while the mother and daughter sat in the back.
Because of the traffic jam on the road, it was almost noon, so they had to change their plan and eat first and then go home.
.....................
At the restaurant, they chose a window seat and sat down.
"Mommy, it felt like forever when I couldn't see you. I miss you so much." Fei lovingly laid in his mother's arms.
"Once work is over, mother flew back early in the morning. Mother missed you too." Li Rouxi squeezed her soft face lightly.
"Mom has worked hard. This is your reward." Fei took a butterfly lollipop from panda backpack and gave it to Li Rouxi. Her black and bright eyes were filled with innocence.
"Mom has you, so work isn't hard." In Li Rouxi's heart, her daughter was her greatest motivation and comfort.
In the past five years, Li Rouxi and Fei depended on each other. Three years ago, Fei fell ill and was in danger. Li Rouxi had nothing and when she was about to collapse, she met Mr. Yao, who handed him a marriage certificate and a one-million-dollar cheque, with a three-year limit.
In order to get money to save Fei's life, Li Rouxi sold her marriage to a stranger. Fortunately, this secret marriage did not affect her and her daughter's life remained unchanged.
Now that the three-year period was approaching, she was about to withdraw from this marriage and become truly free.
Only last night she received a message from Mr. Yao - "Miss Li, please abide by the contract. You are a married woman, remember your position and keep your virtue."
How was she immoral?
This was simply blatant slander! Li Rouxi was extremely mad!
"But it's very hard for me to see my mother alone, so I have to solve your life's major issues before I grow up and marry brother Taehyung." Fei serious look made Lulu and Li Rouxi almost choke with tea.
"Fei is really eager to see her mother get married." Lulu took a napkin and wiped the corners of her lips.
Li Rouxi pretended not to understand and continued to drink tea.
"Mommy, what about the handsome uncle I asked you to take pictures of last night? Show him to me and let me pick for you." Fei shook Li Rouxi's arm and was determined.
"There was no handsome uncle, only a weird uncle." Li Rouxi handed her the phone "I could only sneak a short video in the corner."
At that time, she only scanned the crowd in the banquet hall with her phone so as to please the little girl.
It was just that she returned to Tianjin, so why would she still think of that demon!
Li Rouxi frowned, feeling "shameful" of her behavior.
"Rouxi, do you... really plan to stay single like this?" Lulu asked quietly as she glanced at Fei, who was already immersed in choosing a husband for Li Rouxi.
"In fact, it's quite nice currently." Li Rouxi's expression was calm, without a trace of desire for a relationship.
"Can you still not let go of what happened before?" Lulu was of course referring to Darren.
She didn't want to remind her friend of her scars, but she also didn't want her friend to be indulged in the past and dare not open her heart to pursue happiness.
Li Rouxi was silent, rubbing the teacup with her finger, and then slowly replied. "Yes, I can't let go of the past."
"Rouxi, Fei already grew up and what happened before is now over. Don't give up your happiness for the sake of one or two scumbags... It's not worth it." Lulu was worried that Li Rouxi was evading feelings for the unworthy one.
"Lulu, you are wrong. Five years have passed. Let them taste what I was like back then and take back everything that belongs to me! So now, it's too early to talk about this." Li Rouxi squeezed the teacup, her eyes no longer gentle like when she faced her daughter. Hatred emerged in Li Rouxi's eyes.
Lulu stretched out her hand to cover the back of Li Rouxi's hand, her tender eyes filled with pity for her.
She has seen all the suffering Li Rouxi lived with over the years.
Darren and LingJiao, even the parents of Li Rouxi and Darren, were not worthy of sympathy.
"When did you want to return Chongqing?"
"This year is my grandma's 80th birthday." It was a good time for her to go back.
"Then you can rest assured to do what you want to do, and I will take care of Fei." What Lulu could do was make her not worried of anything else.
After food was served on the table, they put aside the unhappy things they had just discussed and started to eat.
Fei held the phone in her hand and leaned over. "Mommy, I think this handsome uncle isn't bad."
Li Rouxi glanced intently with a complicated expression.
The person who Fei was pointing at was Wang Yuxuan, who was surrounded by everyone at the banquet.
His outstanding personal charm and temperament were the focus of the audience that even though he only appeared for two seconds, he was eye-catching.
"He has a wife." Li Rouxi made up an excuse.
What if Wang Yuxuan knew she had a daughter? Would he compete with her for custody?
She only hoped that Wang Yuxuan would never know, so that Fei could stay by her side forever.
"What a shame. I liked him at a glance." Fei pouted her pink lips, disappointed.
"Okay, eat your food." Li Rouxi confiscated the phone and placed a honey chicken wing in her plate.
She would rather get married to a pig than to Wang Yuxuan.
After the meal.
"You must be too tired from work. You need to rest, let's go home." Lulu could feel tiredness floating in Li Rouxi's eyes.
Li Rouxi hummed softly and held Fei small hands.
Li Rouxi didn't sleep well all last night, and was a little down. She wanted to go home to sleep.
"A mother who doesn't have a man just ends up becoming strong like a man himself." Fei just created another saying.
"..." Li Rouxi was speechless.
