Chapter 28: Goodbye, Youyou's Xiaolongbao

At this time, class was about to end at the kindergarten. She originally intended to fetch Youyou to enjoy his favorite crab roe Xiaolongbao.

Earlier today, she had asked Youyou to wait for her at school after class dismissal.

However, Yun Shishi did not want to pick up Youyou looking this haggard, so she hurriedly took a cab home, changed into a fresh set of clothes, and tidied herself up.

Thus, by the time she arrived at the kindergarten, all the children, except for Youyou who was carrying his bag and sitting by the school entrance alone, had already gone home.

From afar, she immediately spotted the little guy with his head lowered and his hand clenching on to something. He was looking at it with utmost concentration.

Yun Shishi suppressed the sadness in her heart and tapped her cheeks. Putting on a smile, she walked toward him.

“Youyou!”

Youyou raised his head. Seeing that it was her, his face lit up and formed a dazzling smile. He quickly jumped off his seat and excitedly ran toward her. He opened his arms and gleefully jumped around while he acted coy in front of her.

“Mommy! Huggies! Mommy, hug Youyou….”

Yun Shishi slightly lowered her stance. The little guy then rushed into her arms, just like a cotton ball, and gave affection to her.

His milky white face lovingly snuggled into her neck as he pouted his small lips. Feeling a little indignant, he said, “Mommy, why did you come only now? Youyou waited for so long….”

“Sorry, Youyou. Something happened at mommy’s workplace, so I was late.”

“Okay! Youyou forgives mommy then!” The little guy tilted his head upwards. His attractive eyes gently formed an arch; his bright orbs seemed to be filled with shards of sunlight.

Youyou slightly smiled and then pursed his lips pitifully. His hands tapped on his tummy as he whined, “Mommy, Youyou is hungry! Mommy promised to bring Youyou to eat Xiaolongbao today! When are we going?”

Upon hearing his words, Yun Shishi’s expression slightly changed. She was in a bit of a dilemma.

All her savings in the bank were already used to pay off the debt of that disappointing Yun Na.

When she got fired today, her manager paid her this month’s salary and a lump sum, but these could only be transferred to her account the next day. For now, she was really strapped for cash.

Crab roe Xiaolongbao was Youyou’s favorite. However, it was too expensive, so only on special days or when she received a bonus would she be able to take him out to eat it.

Yun Shishi felt a little bitter inside. She raised her eyes and looked at Youyou. Her hand gently caressed his soft cheek and, in a half-pacifying manner, said, “Youyou, let’s eat at home today, alright?”

Just as she said this, Youyou’s smile froze up. With his eyes drooping in disappointment, lips slowly pouting, and brows creasing, he mumbled, “Mommy, you promised me. You can’t go back on your words…”

He tightly clenched the piece of paper in his hand. He was feeling very sullen that his pale face turned red, as he emotionally bit on his lower lip with his pearly white teeth. His thick curly lashes picked up a few drops of moisture – a sign that he was about to cry.

Yun Shishi was at a loss on what to do when she saw the little guy tear up in disappointment. Flustered, she hastily wiped off his tears with her hands and sadly said, “Youyou, please don’t cry! Mommy will do what mommy promised you!”

Youyou gently turned away. He appeared to be rather peeved.

Yun Shishi hesitated for quite a while before biting her lower lip. Ultimately, she decided to break the news of her losing her job to him. She did not want to leave the image of her lying to him in Youyou’s memory.

“Sorry, Youyou. Today, mommy… lost her job, so….”
