Distant Goal

After everyone left, Ye Wanwan and Si Yehan were the only people left in the courtyard.

The faint smile Ye Wanwan used to send off Tangtang still remained on her face.

Si Yehan sighed lightly and pulled her into his arms.

Ye Wanwan's repressed emotions seemed to flood out instantly. Her voice was hoarse as she asked, "Ah-Jiu, I want Tangtang. Can't Tangtang be my child?"

Si Yehan caressed her hair. "Tangtang isn't our child, after all. His true parents are still waiting for him."

"I don't care! I want Tangtang! I'm Tangtang's mom! I promised I'd always be with Tangtang!"

"If you like… we can also have a child later."

"I don't want one! I only want Tangtang!"

…

In the bedroom:

Ye Wanwan exhausted an overwhelming amount of emotions that day, so she fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

Si Yehan helped tuck her in the comforter and bent over to plant a kiss against the corner of her teary eyes.
