Meeting (2)

Xiaojie saw the pupils of the woman with the veil constrict and he narrowed his bright black eyes, imitating the look of an adult. "I only have Daddy, my Mommy doesn't want me anymore."

Lan Xiaozhi looked at the little boy with wet eyes and she felt a pain in her chest.

His small face showed a sad expression and his small mouth pouted.

Lan Xiaozhi lifted her hand unconsciously to wipe the tears from the corner of his eye. "You're so cute, how can your mother bear to give you up?"

Xiaojie's black eyes turned bright and he held Lan Xiaozhi's hand, smiling brightly at her. "Really?"

His smile was like a warm sun in the winter, shining into the hearts of everyone he encountered.

Lan Xiaozhi looked down at the fingers held by the little boy.

His small hand was soft and delicate and her skin was faintly hot from his touch.

Unknowingly, her heartbeat accelerated and her breathing became quicker too.
