My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1252: Chapter 1252: Encountering a Mother and Son, I Really Like Them

Rong Yan knew by the bodyguard who was following her every step and remained highly vigilant towards her that her attempts to help in the mall this morning were futile. Someone of the other party’s status wouldn’t wander around the mall alone. It was likely that a bodyguard was close by, but had not come forward because they ran into her and Little Baby being nosy.

But Jiang Chenyue stuffed all of the cakes into her hands, and it wouldn’t be good for her not to accept them. After hesitating, Rong Yan gracefully accepted, "Then, thank you, Mrs. Jiang."

Jiang Chenyue rarely took a liking to young girls, but for some reason, she found the girl in front of her increasingly endearing. She smiled slightly, her voice gentle, "You don’t have to be so polite with me, just accept it. Consider it a little gift I bought for the child today. He’s a good kid, I like him a lot."

Ever since her daughter went missing, she had sponsored many orphans under her own name, secretly hoping to be lucky enough to sponsor her stolen daughter.

Even if that wasn’t the case, she also hoped to accumulate good deeds for her daughter, wishing that her daughter was living well.

But to say she genuinely liked any of the children was almost not true.

However, meeting the little boy today by coincidence, his beautiful face and those big, bright eyes seemed to be etched into her heart. She couldn’t forget him all day, and thoughts of him surfaced now and then.

While she was lost in thought, suddenly, a jar was gently handed to her.

"Duidui will be very happy to receive so many cakes; this jar of peanut candy is a return gift he’s giving to Mrs. Jiang."

Earlier, the bodyguard offered ten times the price to buy it, but she wouldn’t sell. Now, she was simply giving it to Jiang Chenyue for free.

Not only did the bodyguard not understand, the store clerks were also puzzled.

Only Rong Yan herself understood!

She initially refused because some things money can’t buy, and now she was willing to give because Jiang Chenyue bought cake for Little Baby. She didn’t like to owe favors to people she wasn’t familiar with.

Jiang Chenyue looked down at the candy jar that suddenly appeared in her hand, lost in thought and seemingly recollecting something, her expression actually turned somewhat sorrowful.

Rong Yan had only met her once and didn’t want to pry into other people’s matters. Glancing at her phone lighting up with messages, she took the initiative to say, "Then, Mrs. Jiang, thanks for your cakes, I should be going now."

Jiang Chenyue suddenly called out to her, "Wait."

Rong Yan turned around, puzzled, not understanding why she was being asked to wait.

Jiang Chenyue put away the heavy sorrow in her heart, observing the young girl in front of her carefully, with a smile curling the corners of her mouth and a much softer gaze, "I haven’t asked you yet, what’s your name?"

If her daughter were alive, she would be about the same age as the girl in front of her.

This was a cake shop, and the clerks were all around. Rong Yan would come back to buy cakes for Little Baby in the future. After a slight hesitation, she said, "Mrs. Jiang, you can call me Yan."

...

When Jiang Chenyue returned to Chu Garden with the peanut candy, Qin Jun had already come back. Seeing her walking in with a smile, which was a rare sight, he greeted her in surprise, "Aunt, you’re back. Did you encounter something nice? You seem to be in a really good mood."

"Something nice?" Jiang Chenyue lifted the corners of her mouth, her eyes sparkling, "I did encounter something nice."

Qin Jun rarely saw her express her emotions so openly, let alone look visibly happy, which made him even more surprised. He leaned in, "What nice thing? Share it with me, so I can be happy too."

Jiang Chenyue gave him a glance, seemingly disliking his nonchalant demeanor, yet she replied with a smile, "I met a mother and her son, whom I really like."
