love addiction

"Oh, that's good, let's go in." She beckoned the child into the house.

The orphanage gradually quieted down, and Tang Mianmian's heart also calmed down. She looked at the orphanage.

Over the past few years, nothing has changed here, it's just much older.

Even though the weather has cooled down, it should be the season to wear padded jackets, but the children are still wearing thin clothes...

She couldn't help having a sore nose, very sad.

In this world, there are too many people who will experience all kinds of misfortunes.

Compared with them, he is not the worst.

Thinking about it this way, the sadness at the beginning became insignificant.

Tang Mianmian helped take care of the children, and the principal's mother went to prepare food for the children, and she played games with the children.

It was getting dark, but there were bursts of car engine sounds outside the room.

this late?Are those people coming again?

Tang Mianmian stood up worriedly, and the children also showed frightened expressions after hearing the sound of the car's engine.

The dean, who was cooking, also hurriedly threw it out and walked towards the gate.

Tang Mianmian guarded the children behind her and looked in the direction of the gate warily.

The headlights were on, against the light, a tall man stood.

Although he couldn't see the other person's face clearly, Tang Mianmian felt a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

But it also made her breathe a sigh of relief, at least, it wasn't those local hooligans who had just left.

The man followed the dean's mother and walked in.

Tang Mianmian's heart was also raised. At this time, a child behind her rushed out and rushed towards the man, "Uncle Mo, why are you here? I haven't seen you for a long time, and Xiaoqing thought you were not coming." .”

Uncle Mo?
Tang Mianmian narrowed her eyes.

Qi Yunmo's face appeared under the light of the room.

When he saw Tang Mianmian, he was also surprised, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why are you here?"

Yan Ranran looked at the two in surprise, "So you know each other?"

"Yeah." Qi Yunmo nodded, his black eyes darkened, "Mother of the Dean, she is Ranran's best friend and my good brother's ex-wife, so we know each other."

Good brother's ex-wife...

Tang Mianmian felt a sudden pain in his heart, and his face turned pale.

But Qi Yunmo didn't say much, but picked up the little girl who rushed towards him, and asked with a smile, "How could Uncle Mo forget you? Didn't he come to see you whenever he was free?" ?”

"Xiaoqing knew that Uncle Mo was the best." The cute little girl kissed Qi Yunmo loudly on the face.

Tang Mianmian couldn't imagine that the previously indifferent Qi Yunmo would be the smiling man in front of him.

Even if he was smiling before, he didn't smile sincerely now.

That must be like it here.

Tang Mianmian frowned and lowered her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.

The dean's mother cooked too much food for the two of them, Tang Mianmian couldn't talk, and Qi Yunmo was concentrating on playing with the children, and didn't interact with her.

This also made Tang Mianmian relax a little.

After all, she didn't want to explain why she appeared in the orphanage.

After dinner, the children gathered to play games, and she was quietly accompanying them.

And Qi Yunmo was talking with the dean's mother outside, and he came in after a long time.

Xiaoqing was the first to rush over again, and Qi Yunmo hugged her up naturally, "Xiaoqing, would you like to go home with Uncle Mo?"

"Huh? Go home? Isn't this my home?" Xiaoqing asked puzzled.

Qi Yunmo smiled, stretched out his hand to hang her nose, "You have Uncle Mo's house, don't you want to go?"

"Then I went to Uncle Mo's house, can I still go back to this house? I can't bear to miss the dean's grandma, brother Xiaoming and sister Xiaorui. They are all very kind to Xiaoqing." Xiaoqing blinked her big eyes. , asked naively.

"Of course." Qi Yunmo rubbed her head with a smile, "But it's not tonight, I can take you home after I go through the formalities, so during this time, you have to have fun with your little friends, okay?"

"Okay." Xiaoqing nodded obediently, kissed Qi Yunmo, then got off him, and ran towards her friends.

Qi Yunmo looked at the time, and it might be late, so he said to the dean's mother, "I just found out about the planning, and I will deal with it. Don't worry about the dean's mother, and take care of it." The kids will be fine."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Qi. Thanks to your help these years, the orphanage can survive." Yan Ranran said with tears in her eyes.

Qi Yunmo shook his head, with a smile on his lips, "I believe that if Ranran was here, she would do the same, so the principal's mother doesn't need to thank me, I'm just doing my part for Ranran."

"Yeah." Yan Ranran nodded, said nothing, and went to take the children to sleep.

Qi Yunmo watched all the children enter the bedroom, the smile on his mouth slowly fell.

Tang Mianmian showed him the words typed on the phone.

[Thank you for doing this for Ranran, she will be grateful to you when she finds out. 】

Qi Yunmo raised his eyebrows and looked at her suspiciously.

She hurriedly typed again, [My vocal cords are damaged, so I can't speak for the time being. 】

"What happened on Jue's birthday?" He was very surprised.

Tang Mianmian nodded, confirming his guess, with a wry smile on the corner of her mouth.

That was probably the worst birthday Long Yejue ever had.

It seems that as long as you meet her, nothing good will happen.

"Does Long Yejue know you're here?" Qi Yunmo lit a cigarette and asked her through the smoke.

Tang Mianmian took a step back unconsciously, she still doesn't like people smoking.

She handed him the phone to look at, [Seeing that you like children very much, it's beyond my expectation. 】

child?

Qi Yunmo's eyes were narrowed, a little hollow, and the playful smile on the corners of his mouth fell down. He took two puffs of cigarettes, but coughed because he was too violent.

Tang Mianmian just looked at him like this, her eyebrows slightly frowned, feeling a little complicated.

If she judged correctly, Qi Yunmo was thinking about his and Fu Ranran's child.

To him, that child was gone, that's why he was so kind to Xiaoqing, and even wanted to adopt her.

He coughed for a long time before he stopped, his voice was still hoarse, "Let's go outside for a walk."

Tang Mianmian nodded, followed behind him, and left the house.

The outside of the orphanage has been planned and has been dug out of shape, but there is a small garden inside the orphanage.

Although I can't afford to turn on the lights, the street lights in the garden have become decorations.

But thanks to the planning, there are shining street lights all around, which also illuminate the small garden as if it were daytime.

Two people walked among them, one couldn't speak, and the other was silent.

In the yard, there are swings made from waste tires hung on simple iron chains for children's entertainment.

Qi Yunmo walked over, sat on one of them, and pointed to the other, "Sit down."

That voice looked tired.

Just like how heavy she was when she chose to leave Long Yejue, she didn't even have the strength to speak.

Tang Mianmian sat on another swing, swaying slightly.

The lights not far away are so far and near.

Her line of sight has been falling upwards.

After a long time, the person beside him opened his mouth, "I picked Xiaoqing up, because I never met the conditions for adoption, so I placed it with the dean's mother. The day I picked her up was the day I knew I was The day my child died..."

Sure enough, he regarded Xiaoqing as his and Ranran's child.

Tang Mianmian looked at him, feeling a little uncomfortable.

What would happen if Qi Yunmo knew that his child was still alive and well?

Qi Yunmo smoked again and was about to light it.

Tang Mianmian reached out to stop him and shook her head slightly.

Stop smoking.

Qi Yunmo smiled wryly, went over her hand, and insisted on pointing, "If you don't smoke, your heart will be empty, just like I drink every night, because if I don't drink, I won't be able to sleep, which is very painful."

"..."

Tang Mianmian never thought that these years, Qi Yunmo lived such a life.

His eyes were very hollow, and he was completely gone from the high spirits he had when he first met him.

"In these years, although I linger in the flowers, my heart is empty, and I can't piece it together. As I said before, there is no news of her, and my whole life is a vast sea of ​​people."

She bit her lip and wanted to tell him excitedly that the child was still alive and Ranran was fine...

But she couldn't speak.

Ranran begged her not to tell Qi Yunmo anything about her.

Because she doesn't want to get involved anymore.

but……

The man next to me is really distressing.

Tang Mianmian hesitated for a moment, then typed on the phone.

The light from the screen illuminated her face.

Qi Yunmo turned his head to look at her, "What kind of life am I living now, and what kind of life I have lived these past few years."

Her hand stopped suddenly, and she raised her eyes to look at him uneasily.

"You may not be able to imagine, right? In the past few years, Jue is like a robot, and his insomnia is even worse. Even drinking can't relieve it, so most of the time, he is in a state of overload, the only time he falls asleep. , just in a coma..."

Her eyes were hot, and the tip of her nose was sore. She bit her lip, but couldn't restrain the wanton tears, and could only let them fall.

"I still haven't figured it out. Why did you leave him back then? He has nothing, but you insisted on leaving him, regardless of his desire to put down his self-esteem. You women are really more ruthless than men."

Guiltyly, Tang Mianmian lowered her gaze, looked at the phone, and struggled for a long time before lifting it up.

There are only a few simple words on it.

Qi Yunmo's expression completely changed.

She wrote, 【She is coming to Jiangcheng. 】

"Who? Fu Ranran? Is it true? When will you come? Where is it?" Qi Yunmo asked several questions in succession.

Tang Mianmian shook her head and continued typing.

Qi Yunmo couldn't wait to get up, staring at her phone screen without moving his eyes.

【That's all I can tell you, because I also have a promise to her. 】

"You..." Qi Yunmo almost died of anger.

Is it really okay for this woman to whet her appetite like this?

[You've been waiting for so many years, it's not too late, as long as there is a destiny, we will see you again. 】

Tang Mianmian smiled at him.

Qi Yunmo gradually calmed down from the excitement, thought about her words carefully, and then nodded, "You're right, I've been waiting for so many years, it's not too late, thank you for telling me this."

[But please don’t say that I told you. 】 Tang Mianmian shook her head, hastily defending herself.

Qi Yunmo nodded knowingly, "Don't worry, I won't confess you, but I still want to thank you."

【You should thank yourself, because you touched me. 】
