Chapter 387 No More Suffering



Chapter 387 No More Suffering

"Do you have that woman's phone number?" Jiang Yichen turned to ask the child's grandmother.

"I do have it, but I don't know if it's still working now." After saying that, Grandma took out a piece of paper with a phone number written on it from under the drawer.

"This woman, she even went shopping with me for clothes before, and now she's run away. The man is gone too. It's so pitiful for the children." One of the neighbors looked at the two children standing next to me with a regretful expression.

"Yes, it's such a pity. I wonder if there's still a chance to find it now."

"If we had one, these two children wouldn't have to suffer."

While the neighbors chatted amongst themselves, Jiang Yichen was making that phone call.

"Hello, the number you dialed is not in service." Then the phone beeped.

"What should we do? What should we do?" Grandma panicked even more. Over the years, she had never thought of contacting that woman, only hoping that her two grandsons would grow up quickly.

"Grandma, it's alright, don't worry. Didn't that lady say she accompanied her shopping for clothes before? She'll definitely have a solution now." I comforted my grandma who was standing beside me.

"I hope so!" The two children quickly helped their grandmother to sit down in a chair.

"Grandma." The younger sister handed her grandmother a glass of water from the table. The older brother next to her said, "I think Father will find out."

Then we called his father.

"Your house is currently undergoing demolition, and you'll need to go home soon to handle it," Jiang Yichen said bluntly.

"When did this happen? I'm not far away, I can be back the next day!" After saying that, the man felt something was wrong and questioned, "Wait, how did you know my phone number? And are you a scammer? You're not going to try to get money from me, are you?"

Jiang Yichen sneered, "It's not that bad. You'll know for sure when you come back and see for yourself whether it's true or not."

Then he hung up the phone.

"Will this really work?" I asked Jiang Yichen cautiously. "Of course, I've seen plenty of people like this who have fallen out with their families over money."

"Don't worry, Momo."

"Okay." I walked over to the child again: "Remember to call me when he comes back tomorrow. This is his phone number." I wrote my phone number on the paper.

"Thank you, sister," the brother said gratefully.

I patted the boy's head, thinking to myself that my own Xiao Huai was still waiting for me at home.

"Then let's have lunch here today." Grandma said, seeing that things were almost settled, and invited us to stay for lunch.

Seeing that entertaining us here would surely cost them a lot of money, Song Yang quickly said, "No need, we've already eaten here, and we're not hungry yet."

"Yes, I'm not hungry, and I have things to do at home, so I need to go back as soon as possible this afternoon."

"That's it, okay then."

"It's alright, Grandma, we'll come again tomorrow, and we definitely can in the future," I replied to the old lady with a smile.

Afterwards, we returned to the city.

"Then today's task is complete," Xu Sisi said happily.

"Yes, it's all done. I'll be off the early shift today." Jiang Yichen smiled, and Xu Sisi nodded before going home.

Soon after, we returned home.

"You're back so early today." Grandma looked at us with delight.

"Yes, Grandma, Momo is hungry. It's not mealtime yet, let's go out to eat."

"You young people go eat! I'll stay home and keep Xiao Huai company."

"Grandma, come with us." An older woman who had overheard my conversation with my grandma came over.

"How about we eat out today?"

Hearing this, I was quite surprised. Ever since my aunt returned to China safely, her attitude towards me has been getting better day by day. But now that I think about it, it's all good; at least the family is harmonious now.

"Alright then, we'll bring our lovely granddaughter along."

Inside the car, I sat in the passenger seat. My grandmother and aunt were in the same car, and Jiang's father was still at the company.

"Jiang Yichen, which restaurant should we go to?"

He was holding the steering wheel with one hand when he replied to me, "Let's go to a restaurant in the city center. It's very lively there today."

"Jiang Yichen, are you hiding something from me?"

"No no."

He pursed his lips, and I sensed something was wrong, but I didn't know what he was planning to do.

"Really?" I continued to ask.

"Really." This time, Jiang Yichen answered me decisively, and I finally felt relieved.

"By the way, how's Lin Nan's trip abroad going?"

"Over there, it'll be done soon. The handover of work is still in progress."

I nodded, and listening to the music in the car, we soon arrived at the restaurant.

"Mr. Jiang, you've arrived. You're on the second floor." A uniformed waiter saw us from afar and quickly ran over to say this.

"Well, hard work."

I followed the waiter up to the second floor, and everything seemed normal at first, but I gradually realized something was wrong.

This place is decorated so beautifully, it almost feels like a wedding.

The further in you go, the more flowers there are, all of them my favorites, but I've already registered my marriage with Jiang Yichen.

Grandma followed behind us, walking one in front and one behind.

"This place is beautiful, the environment is great. How come I didn't notice it before? Tell me, did you bring someone here to eat before, and then bring me here?" I asked Jiang Yichen in a joking tone.

Jiang Yichen remained silent, simply holding my hand and leading me forward. Suddenly, the door opened.

"Wow!" the woman exclaimed, overwhelmed with delight.

"It's so beautiful." I looked closely and wondered if this was a surprise Jiang Yichen had prepared for me.

"The cake in front of me, the exquisite flowers, and Xu Sisi and the others."

"What's going on?" Just as I was wondering, Jiang Yichen pulled my hand and walked forward.

Grandma stopped and sat down, watching me and Jiang Yichen with great pleasure.

"It's your birthday today." He then added, "You've been so busy these past few months. I was really worried when I saw how thin you'd gotten."

"Jiang Yichen." For some reason, I didn't say many words of gratitude, I just kept looking at Jiang Yichen.

"Come on, let's cut the cake." He pulled me into his arms and spoke into the microphone, "Today is Madam Gu Mo's birthday. Thank you all for coming..."

I went from being at a loss to quickly picking up where Jiang Yichen left off. Afterwards, Gu Bai took the first piece of cake.

"Sis, what do you think? Do you like it?"

"Gu Bai? You got a share too." I took a bite, quickly swallowed it, and said to Gu Bai.

There was still some cake left on my lips, and Jiang Yichen gently wiped it off with a tissue.

"Is everything alright at home?" I asked Gu Bai gently.

"They're here today too, why don't you just ask them?" With that, Gu Bai left.
