Hearing his son's response, Li Wanran took back the box containing the pen in his hand, and then threw the beautifully packaged box aside as if he was throwing away something unimportant.
Make a sound.
Liu Zhiyue's eyes moved back along the direction of the box, looking at the expressionless face, not wanting to continue to stay like this meaninglessly.
"Is there anything else? If nothing happens, I'm going back to class."
"What do you want now."
"What?"
"I said whatever gift you want now, I can buy it for you."
Listening to what she said, Liu Zhiyue didn't speak for a while, and then a strong feeling of powerlessness arose in his heart.
She...is always like this.
She always feels that others should be happy with her kindness.
Just like... a child who has not grown up.
The face that looked at Li Wanran was obviously the same as in his memory, but Liu Zhiyue felt that she was getting further and further away from him.
When he was a child, he would do some things deliberately because he wanted to get his mother's attention, but no matter whether he did good or bad things, she always looked cold in front of him.
There seemed to be no room for anyone in her eyes.
Such a person... turned out to be his biological mother.
A pair of hands slowly clenched, and Liu Zhiyue looked away, looking at the night sky.
Tonight's night...is so dark.
"Now...I just want a complete home."
"..."
After a long time, Li Wanran heard her son's answer. His answer... obviously exceeded her expectations.
When she looked at her son in front of her again, Li Wanran could clearly detect that there was something else in his eyes at this moment.
Something called Strange.
"another."
"I don't want anything anymore. If I do...it's just what I wanted when I was a child. As I grow older, what I want changes."
Looking at Li Wanran in front of him, Liu Zhiyue continued.
"When I was in the first grade of elementary school, I wanted a toy, and you told me to ask my father for it. When I was in the third grade, I wanted to play marbles with other students in the class, but you told me not to play with children from poor families. When I was in the fifth grade,
Because I was regressing in my studies, I said I wanted a pen, but you said I didn’t have time, and once again asked me to go to my dad to ask for it..."
Speaking of this, Liu Zhiyue paused, then took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"I haven't asked you for any gifts since then. Now that I'm in the third grade of junior high school, you remembered it and bought me a pen. But you didn't know that what I wanted at that time wasn't a pen... I just wanted to be with you.
You just said a few more words at that time."
"Zhiyue..."
"When I was a kid, when other classmates were discussing where to go with their parents in the class, I could only stay silent because I didn't like to attend banquets and parties. Every time I went there, I looked like a fool.
If you don't talk, you will never take me there again... In my memory, the home in my mind has never been complete."
"..."
"So...if you came today just to make up for something, I think that's enough. After all, when you divorced dad, you didn't choose Xia Zhi and me."
"..."
Li Wanran listened silently to what Liu Zhiyue said. Her son's words came to her ears word for word. At the same time, with every word, the scene that happened at that time slowly appeared in her mind.
It’s just... it’s become very fuzzy and I don’t remember it very clearly.
She just knew that, just as her son said, the young Liu Zhiyue seemed to have really done those things...
She didn't know the specifics.
Standing in front of her, Liu Zhiyue didn't know what he was expecting. Perhaps he wanted to hear an admission of mistake from this arrogant and indifferent person.
Even if it's just a simple sentence...
sorry.
Time passes minute by minute.
The mother and son stood without any movement, like a still picture.
Until, in the quiet playground, Li Wanran's voice rang out.
"An Yuanyao...will I live with you now?"
His eyes widened suddenly, Liu Zhiyue looked at Li Wanran who still asked this question expressionlessly, and the last trace of expectation in his heart was completely shattered.
He lowered his head and looked at his feet.
Liu Zhiyue suddenly felt like laughing out loud.
It seems like he wants to laugh at himself, and laugh at himself for having even a glimmer of hope in such a person.
I'm afraid...she didn't come today to give a gift to her son.
This moment may be her real purpose...
Disappointment filled Liu Zhiyue's whole body. When he raised his head again, there was no longer any trace of expectation in his eyes when he looked at Li Wanran.
It's like looking at someone who has nothing to do with you.
Said softly.
"Not only do they live together, she and my dad also received the certificate today."
Liu Changqing and An Yuanyao had already told themselves and their sister the news of receiving their certificates two days ago, and the two siblings, who had become accustomed to this kind of family of four, were not surprised at all.
In Liu Zhiyue's view, it was only a matter of time...
After saying this, Liu Zhiyue saw that Li Wanran in front of him could no longer pretend, and his expression began to change.
This was the first time Liu Zhiyue saw such an expression of shock on her face.
The reason why Li Wanran was shocked was because he got the news from his son that the two of them had received the certificate.
If they simply lived together, Li Wanran might not be like this. What she never expected was that the two of them actually received the certificate.
They have become a legal couple...
Just like myself and Li Chongming, they are a legal couple.
Puzzled, very puzzled, Li Wanran couldn't figure out the purpose of An Yuanyao's behavior no matter how much he thought about it. In terms of contact time, his contact time with Liu Changqing should be much longer than hers.
For more than ten years, she has never found anything attractive about Liu Changqing. Why would An Yuanyao, who she grew up with, fall in love with such a person with no merits?
What on earth is she thinking about?
She should also know that marrying Liu Changqing out of revenge for herself would not make her feel uncomfortable at all. In that case... what is her true intention?
Just as when she went to the hospital to see Li Chongming, Li Wanran had been thinking about this in her mind these days, and she had always wanted to find out what An Yuanyao was really thinking.
This is why after leaving the hospital, she did not choose to go home. Instead, she chose to go to her son's school, which she had not seen for a long time, to ask for the information she wanted.
