Lin's mother hurriedly used a bowl to catch it and praised him with a smile.
Xiaocong smiled shyly, his big eyes crinkling into slits, looking as cute as could be.
Lin Xinlan once again stroked his head and felt fortunate, thankful for having chosen to give birth to him.
Only, she regretted, having taken the abortion pill back then…
Otherwise, Xiaocong's eyes wouldn't have been blind.
After dinner, Xiaocong snuggled into Lin Xinlan's arms, acting spoiled and clinging to her, unwilling to let go. He rarely acted spoiled, and only did so when Lin Xinlan returned.
Lin's mother went to prepare Lin Xinlan's bed with fresh sheets and covers; tonight Xiaocong would sleep with her.
When she wasn't home, Xiaocong would sleep with Lin's mother.
Being blind, he needed someone by his side at night to take care of him.
It was very late, yet Xiaocong was reluctant to sleep. He yawned fiercely, his eyelids disobediently drooping, betraying his sleepiness.
