Xiao Bai asked, “Chief, your injury is too minor to be hospitalized. Would you like to come home?”

“Too minor? I’m indeed making too big of a fuss,” said Fan Shixin, staring at the minor cut on his hand.

 “Others might just think that you’re hiding from Sis-in-law.”

 “Let’s go home, then,” Fan Shixin said while standing up.

 He had already decorated the four-bedroom apartment according to the style that he fancied.

 Fan Shixin instructed his babysitter to stay inside the guest room. He had also warned her not to make any blunders and that there were surveillance cameras in the house.

 Hence, Fan Shixin began moving back to the apartment. Tang Mianmian was bubbly and jovial, and Fan Shixin babysat her for two months.

 If Mu Wansheng did not call him regularly, he would have really thought that she was going to abandon her daughter.

When Tang Mianmian was about six months old in August, Mu Wansheng called to ask for her daughter back.

Fan Shixin agreed and informed her of his address.

 Mu Wansheng could not help but feel nervous to be returning to Wei Ni Estate again.

 She discovered that the address he had given her led her to a different apartment from the one she stayed in previously.

The babysitter had already been dismissed by the time she arrived because there was no longer a need for there to be a babysitter.

 Fan Shixin and Tang Mianmian were alone at home.

 Mu Wansheng entered and asked, “Is this your home?”

 “Yes.”

“Are you married?” she asked despite already knowing the answer.

 “Yes.”

Mu Wansheng expressed assent and asked, “Is your wife not home?”

 “She doesn’t stay here. She lives elsewhere.”

 Mu Wansheng carried her daughter, only to discover that she had gotten much chubbier. Clearly, she had been fed well.

 Tang Mianmian’s living conditions were much better than her own.

“Thank you for looking after my daughter all this while. Thank you so much.”

 Fan Shixin smiled and said, “Don’t mention it. I just thought that you could really use some help. Besides, I’m very fond of the child too. I’m a little reluctant to let her go after having spent so much time with her.”

 Mu Wansheng was rather upset to hear his words. Thinking to herself that they probably wouldn’t meet again in the future, she said, “Mianmian will be glad to know that you liked her so much.”

“Is that so?” Fan Shixin then pinched Tang Mianmian’s chubby cheeks and grinned at her.

 “We’ll be taking our leave now, then,” said Mu Wansheng, who was carrying Tang Mianmian in one arm and holding onto Snowman’s leash with the other.

Noticing that she seemed to be struggling, Fan Shixin said, “Let me help you walk the dog and see you out.”

 “It’s… it’s alright.”

 However, he snatched the leash from her and sent her downstairs.

Mu Wansheng returned to the Tang family village to see that Tang Yucheng had already prepared dinner.

He had returned to his usual temperament after two months, which was the reason why Mu Wansheng decided to bring her daughter home.

However, Mu Wansheng had promised herself that she would definitely leave if Tang Yucheng were to start being boorish and ill-tempered again.

She was heartened to see that he had stopped losing his temper after getting his feelings sorted out.

 The peace lasted until Tang Mianmian’s third birthday.

 Tang Kangcheng and his wife borrowed 300 thousand dollars from Tang Yucheng.

Mu Wansheng did not voice her opinions and instead left it to him to decide on his own.

She did not wish to interfere and would not have any objections if he wanted to give his brother money again.

 Tang Kangcheng and his wife suggested that they bring their son and Tang Mianmian to the amusement park to celebrate her birthday.

Mu Wansheng was 27 years old when she conceived Tang Mianmian and 28 years old when she gave birth to her. Thus, she was 31 years old now.

Mu Wansheng did not carry any hopes for her future; her only hope was for her precious daughter to grow up well.

The three-year-old Tang Mianmian was relatively tall for her age and seemed like a five-year-old instead. She had high pigtails and rosy cheeks. Although Mu Wansheng could not see her, she could roughly guess her features because she knew that her daughter resembled her.

 “Mommy, hurry up. I can’t wait any longer!” she exclaimed excitedly.

Seeing how eager she was, Mu Wansheng said, “I’m coming.”

 Tang Mianmian held her hand and said to Tang Yucheng, who was locking the door, “Daddy, we’re leaving without you!”

 “Can’t you see that I’m locking the door? Look how eager you are,” said Tang Yucheng, who adored his daughter. Although she was young, she was rather mature and sensible. Not to mention, she also had a sharp tongue. Tang Yucheng could not help but regret his actions at the hospital whenever he recalled them.

 He had kicked the habit of smoking, all because of her.

 The roads were still slippery because of the recent snowfall. Hence, the family of three boarded a bus instead of the rickshaw.

 The amusement park was no longer as crowded, and the ticket prices had also returned to normal.

 Tang Mianmian was beyond excited, and she could not stop cheering loudly. She had always been a jovial child who enjoyed laughing. Her laughter could be heard wherever she went.

 Mu Wansheng was heartened to see how happy her daughter was.

Before they started going onto the rides, Tang Yucheng bought Mu Wansheng some milk tea. Mu Wansheng decided to sit out and wait for them to come back. Although she could not see, she knew that there were lots of passing strangers.

After finishing the milk tea, she continued to sit on the bench for a while. Mu Wansheng then proceeded to go to the washroom together with Snowman.

The Ladies’ and Gents’ were usually separated by distinct labels and signs. Having received prior training, Snowman could accurately bring her to the Ladies’.

However, there were only labels and no symbols on the washroom signs of the amusement park.

Hence, Snowman was lost when they arrived at the entrance of the washroom.

After looking around for a while, Snowman brought her to the washroom on the right.

The Gents’ would usually be on the left while the Ladies’ would usually be on the right.

Thus, Snowman decided to lead her to the washroom on the right based on usual circumstances.

Mu Wansheng followed along, not doubting it at all.

Due to the fact that she did not know what kind of a washroom it was, she stuck her hand inside as soon as she stepped foot into the washroom.

Snowman led her toward a cubicle, and she opened the door as soon as she touched it.

After she was done relieving nature’s call, someone came out of the cubicle. Mu Wansheng was not bothered and instead proceeded to wash her hands at the sink.

However, what happened next shocked her greatly. The item that she was touching felt like the sink, but it also felt like something else.

All of a sudden, a man said, “How much longer are you going to fumble around the urinal? This is the Gents’.”
