Just as Tang Jing was lost in her thoughts, her phone rang.
Tang Jing picked it up and saw the words "Xiaomi" on the screen.
The gentle smile on Tang Jing's face disappeared when she saw the name. She picked up the phone and said softly, "Xiaomi? What's the matter?"
Tang Xiaomi's cute voice came through the phone. "Mommy, what are you doing?"
Tang Jing said gently, "I'm working right now."
Tang Xiaomi hummed in acknowledgment and said, "Mommy, let's go watch "The Devilish Boy", alright?"
Tang Jing said, "Is it an animated film?" She looked at her schedule and said, "Maybe not, Xiaomi. I'm going to be busy at work this month. I should be free after the month is over though."
Tang Xiaomi's pleading voice came from the other end of the phone. "Mommy, the movie might be taken down by next month though."
Tang Jing had a troubled look on her face, but she still started browsing through her schedule.
Just then, Tang Xiaomi said cutely, "That's Su Yang's last movie, so I want to go and support him."
"Su Yang…" Tang Jing fell into a daze when she heard the name.
'How long has it been since I've last heard his name being mentioned?
'Oh, hang on… I do hear it often.
'After all, the corporation would always mention Mr. Su.
'However, no matter how many times I tried, the mention of his name would always make my heart flutter.'
Even though she could not see herself having any free time over the next few days, she could not help but agree. "Okay, let's go watch it then."
"Hehe." Tang Xiaomi giggled from the phone.
It was obvious that she had already figured out her mother's personality over the past two years. No matter what happened, everything would change whenever Su Yang was mentioned.
This time was no exception.
Even though it was her daughter who was causing trouble, when Tang Jing snapped back to reality, she could not help but blush.
She coughed twice and said, "Alright then, let me check my schedule first, we'll talk when I get back tonight."
Then, she reminded Xiaomi, "Be a good girl now and remember to wait for Auntie Chu after school in the classroom. Don't go fooling around."
Auntie Chu was Tang Jing's nanny.
Xiaomi said coquettishly, "Okay, Mommy ~"
After hanging up the phone, Tang Jing thought about Su Yang's matter and came back to her senses. She looked at her schedule again.
'Su Yang's… Uh… Xiaomi's matter is the most important right now. I'll just postpone whatever's not that important.'
Three nights later, at Shanghai's CBD Mall, Tang Jing and Tang Xiaomi held hands as they walked into the mall and headed straight to the cinema on the top floor.
Compared to two years ago, Tang Xiaomi had changed a lot since children would grow up really quickly, plus girls would reach puberty earlier as well. Even though she was only eight or nine years old, she was already 1.3 meters tall.
Compared to when she was young, she was a little grown up at that moment. If she were to be described as a flower, she would have been a budding flower at that moment.
Her tender body had a hint of elegance. One look and you could tell she was going to be a beautiful woman.
The two of them walked hand in hand to the entrance of the cinema.
Tang Xiaomi raised her phone and looked up at her mother. "Mommy, Mommy. I'll go get the tickets."
Tang Jing smiled and patted her head. "Okay."
When Tang Xiaomi was collecting the tickets, Tang Jing stepped aside to avoid the pedestrians.
At that moment, she heard a familiar male voice. "You haven't watched "The Devilish Boy" during the Chinese New Year?"
Following the man's voice was a woman's pleasant voice. "That's right, you've been busy recently, so I was waiting for you to be done."
Tang Jing followed the voice and was stunned.
At that moment, the couple seemed to have noticed Tang Jing's gaze and looked over, and the man was also stunned…
…
Back at Su Yang's villa in Shanghai, Su Yang, Tang Jing, Tang Xiaomi, and Chu Xia sat in the living room while Pan Zhaodi waited outside the door.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Su Yang never expected that he would bump into Tang Xiaomi and Tang Jing while watching a movie with Chu Xia.
Ever since Tang Jing moved out, the two of them had been in contact with each other less and less because Su Yang was busy.
In the beginning, Su Yang would occasionally look for Tang Xiaomi to play. However, as Su Yang got busier and busier, Tang Xiaomi went to primary school and they gradually lost contact as well.
Some people, some things, gradually turned from acquaintances to strangers in life…
However, fate always seemed to be that strange. It would not allow the things you cherished to slip away.
Hence, Tang Jing and Tang Xiaomi both met Su Yang and Chu Xia once again.
Previously, Su Yang had accompanied Chu Xia for a long time. Later on, because of the World Billionaire List, he got busy again.
It was only when Chu Xia called that day and wanted to watch a movie with Su Yang that Su Yang recalled that he had not accompanied his girlfriend for a long time.
Initially, he wanted to stay at home to watch the movie at home, but Chu Xia rejected him. She said that she would make arrangements for today's event, and she wanted to spend the day with Su Yang as a normal couple.
Hence, Su Yang covered up a little and went on a date with Chu Xia, where he would later then meet Tang Jing.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere between the four of them, Chu Xia smiled and said to Xiaomi, "Xiaomi, let's go upstairs and play. I just found a fun game."
Both of them knew Su Yang's secret, and they had seen him in the virtual world before.
Tang Xiaomi's gaze wavered between her mother and Su Yang before she nodded obediently and said cutely, "Okay, Sister Chu Xia ~"
With that, she jumped off the sofa and held Chu Xia's hand as they went upstairs.
After the two left, the atmosphere finally eased.
Su Yang also felt that the Shuraba was dissipating...
