Qi Fenglian took Xiao Bao back to her rented place, while Xiao Yun stayed at Cheng Su’s home. As expected, children from poor families mature early. With Qi Fenglian not around, Xiao Yun proved to be quite sensible, finding clothes and taking a bath on her own, and even washing her own clothes afterwards.
Cheng Su praised her several times, making the little girl blush with embarrassment.
When it was time to sleep, Cheng Su was worried that Xiao Yun might feel homesick or scared, so she stayed to chat with her for a while.
While lying in bed, Xiao Yun chatted intermittently with Cheng Su, suddenly and mysteriously saying, "Auntie, I have a secret to tell you!"
"Oh? What secret?" Cheng Su asked.
"My little aunt, she’s dating someone!" Xiao Yun whispered.
Cheng Su was surprised. Little aunt? That must be Qi Fengping. She’s dating?
Surprised at the cleverness of this young girl, Cheng Su tapped her forehead and jokingly asked, "Do you know what dating means?"
"It’s holding hands and kissing," Xiao Yun replied.
Cheng Su felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Children shouldn’t say such things. You can only date when you grow up."
Xiao Yun nodded.
"How did you find out your little aunt is dating?" Cheng Su asked.
As the saying goes, where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Xiao Yun wouldn’t make this up out of nowhere, considering her age.
Qi Fengping is eighteen or nineteen, a young woman just discovering love, which is normal. But she’s taking college entrance exams this year!
"I saw it," Xiao Yun said. "I saw my little aunt’s diary!"
"Okay!" Xiao Yun hesitated a moment, then said, "But some of my classmates say I’m a child nobody wants. I don’t like playing with them!"
Zheng Su felt a pang in her heart and said, "How could that be? Xiao Yun has both a mom and a dad. It’s not that nobody wants you; it’s just that your parents don’t love each other anymore and live apart. They both love you very much!"
Xiao Yun sighed.
"What is a little girl doing sighing!" Cheng Su found it amusing and said, "Get to sleep. Aren’t you playing with friends tomorrow?"
Xiao Yun made a sound of acknowledgment; after a day of travel and play, she was tired and soon started snoring.
Only then did Cheng Su move the fan a bit away and close the door to return to her room.
"Is she asleep?" Qi Taiguo extended his hand to her.
