Chapter 867: Chapter 21: Mother and Daughter (2)
"Yes, ma’am, may I ask what’s the matter?" Xiao Xian squeezed Yiyi’s hand, Zhou Ziang and Wang Shuai also paused their steps.
"Do you... know a child named Yiyi?" Despite knowing her question was laughable, she just saw two Chinese people similar in age to her daughter and asked them. There are so many Chinese, and the world is so big. But...
"She..." Xiao Xian opened her mouth, considering whether to truthfully inform that the girl named Yiyi was standing next to her.
Yiyi interrupted her answer, "No, we are just passing by."
While speaking, Yiyi gently touched the mixed-race child in the woman’s arms, "So cute."
The little boy had already fallen asleep earlier, awakened by the noise outside, and when he saw the older sister with a round face like his mother’s, he grinned, waved his little hand, and laughed endlessly.
"Let’s go back," Xiao Xian was afraid Yiyi couldn’t control her emotions, and softly urged her.
As Yiyi turned to walk away, the woman couldn’t help but take a step forward.
"What did you just say to the police? I’ve told you, don’t speak carelessly, it can cause big trouble," the baseball coach angrily tugged at her, ignoring her cries of pain, trying to pull her into the house.
The little boy Tommy was frightened and started crying loudly.
"Women are not to be bullied," Yiyi suddenly turned around, wanting to step up and teach the rude man a lesson.
Someone beat her to it, grabbing that nearly two-meter-tall white man.
Wang Shuai, with a cold face, pinned the man against the wall and gave him a solid elbow strike.
The surrounding neighbors started shouting, the white man’s face turned red, and he wanted to curse but the gentlemanly looking man beside him whispered in his ear: "I forgot to mention earlier, this gentleman is a Chinese military officer responsible for executions. He also enjoys diplomatic immunity and won’t be prosecuted for murder in the United States."
The white man immediately fell silent.
The woman anxiously grabbed Wang Shuai, pleading in Chinese.
"From now on, treat them better, or I won’t forgive you," Yiyi said softly, "Wang Shuai, let him go."
The woman supported the man as they returned.
A few police officers came over again, inquiring about what had just happened, which Zhou Ziang nonchalantly brushed aside.
Yiyi stood there for a moment, waiting until the lights in the small house were turned on again before slowly walking away.
"Why didn’t you simply recognize her just now, you miss her very much," Wang Shuai said after hearing Xiao Xian’s account, he had already learned of Yiyi’s background and understood her earlier loss of composure.
"She already has a new family, people she needs to cherish right now, that’s enough," Yiyi’s tone sounded lonely, with a stubborn glint in her eyes.
On the way back, the four didn’t say much. Each was lost in their own memories.
Wang Shuai’s understanding of Yiyi deepened further, the image of the slightly silly, capricious girl slowly transforming.
He unconsciously recalled the time on the airplane when Yiyi and Qu Yang were chatting and laughing.
She truly is someone who can handle things well. Perhaps she really has let go of the relationship that once belonged to them.
Meanwhile, both Xiao Xian and Zhou Ziang inadvertently thought of their families in this life. If she (he) had to leave in the end, she (he) hoped that her (his) grandparents (parents) could find happiness.
As long as they are happy, then everything is enough.
After eating, the four of them went their separate ways.
Upon returning to his place, Zhou Ziang found Aisha already sitting in his room.
"Where did you go just now? You went to find those Chinese exchange students. Zhou Ziang, don’t forget, you now have a U.S. green card, technically you’re half American." Aisha, having broken into the room earlier, saw the lights and the open books, and then noticed the open window, her frustration built up. She patiently waited for Zhou Ziang to return.
"As you said, I hold a U.S. green card, but my nationality is still Chinese. Aisha, I need to clarify with you, the reason I’m here is that I negotiated a cooperation agreement with your mother, but if at any point you do something against my will, I won’t hesitate to confront you early." Zhou Ziang’s mood was originally good, but Aisha’s interference spoiled it.
"You..." Aisha recalled her mother’s repeated warnings that Zhou Ziang was a strong ally, and before completing the trials at the Cangqiong Palace, he couldn’t be offended.
Aisha stepped back several steps, a powerful pressure forced her to retreat from the room.
Why, even though he treated her so indifferently, she still desired his favor.
"Wait a second," he suddenly called out, making Aisha’s eyes light up with hope again, she quickly turned around.
"Find someone to fix the door lock, and don’t enter my room without permission in the future," Zhou Ziang’s words extinguished Aisha’s last bit of hope.
"Alright, Zhou Ziang, you’re ruthless enough, I’ll let you know, I can’t fight against you, but if I find out that you’re helping Zhu Xiaoxian in any way during this activity, I won’t forgive her," Aisha thought, if she couldn’t have him, then no one could.
Even if it meant destroying him, she absolutely couldn’t allow a little brat to steal her man, the terrifying thoughts kept swirling in Aisha’s mind, the seed of evil once it sprouted, it was only a matter of time before it emerged.
