After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and
Chapter 56 The Wind of My Hometown, Free and Gentle
Lan Yujuan, holding her daughter's hand, walked out of the airport side by side with Chen Mo.
Then we stopped, ready to say goodbye.
Do I look like I'm short of money?
Before Lan Yujuan could say goodbye, a curious voice came from above.
"Huh?" Lan Yujuan was a little confused. "Why do you ask that?"
Chen Mo raised his hand and touched his nose, then turned to look into the distance and said, "On this journey, I noticed you've been treating me like a kidnapper the whole time."
After realizing what had happened, Lan Yujuan's face instantly turned bright red, and she quickly waved her hands to explain, "No, you've misunderstood!"
"Well, that, I..."
"Mr. Chen, I really didn't mean that!"
"I believe you're a good person!"
"Although I don't know what industry you work in, you can travel in first class, so you must be quite wealthy."
Chen Mo glanced at her but didn't reply.
However, he took out a wad of cash from his coat pocket to cover the difference between the airfare and the upgrade price, folded it up, squatted down, and stuffed the money into Liu Xiaoman's pocket.
Lan Yujuan saw this and wanted to step forward to stop it.
But as soon as she took half a step, the man's words flashed through her mind: "Do I look like I'm short of money?"
It seems that, in order to protect their pride, the other party will definitely not accept this price difference!
After realizing this, Lan Yujuan finally understood that she might have wronged the other party:
He might just be a good person who's willing to do good deeds whenever he goes out, without expecting anything in return.
Chen Mo, who was half-squatting, finally couldn't resist and reached out to pinch Liu Xiaoman's chubby little face.
He didn't expect that the feel would be even better than he had imagined!
"Good boy, Uncle's leaving!" Chen Mo took the opportunity to rub the little guy's head again before getting up to leave.
As soon as I turned around, the little guy grabbed my trouser leg.
The little guy's eyes were red-rimmed, and he looked up at him pitifully, asking from the bottom of his heart:
"Uncle, where are you going?"
Will we ever meet again?
"My mom and I are going to visit my grandparents. Do you want to come?"
The little guy's tone revealed a deep reluctance to part.
Chen Mo looked down at the little guy, feeling a pang of sadness, and fell silent for a moment.
There are so many people in the world, it's a miracle that we can meet.
But how could he properly say goodbye to this tiny little one?
The two, one big and one small, stared at each other for a long while.
The adults didn't know how to start the conversation, and the children were reluctant to let go.
At the crucial moment, Lan Yujuan bent down, picked up her daughter, kissed her little face, and comforted her:
"Be good, baby, Uncle has important things to do."
"Come on, say goodbye to your uncle!"
After saying that, Lan Yujuan held her daughter's small, chubby arm and gently waved it.
Chen Mo looked at the mother and daughter, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes. He took two steps back, turned around, and disappeared into the crowd.
After watching the other person leave, Lan Yujuan quickly hugged her daughter, turned around, and left in the opposite direction.
At this moment, all she wanted was to get back to the home where she grew up before dawn, ahead of Liu Zhiyuan.
After getting into the taxi, Lan Yujuan blurted out her home address.
Unexpectedly, after picking her up, the driver drove around the airport slowly, not in a hurry to leave.
Lan Yujuan sensed something was wrong and asked, "Master, why aren't you leaving yet?"
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and said leisurely, "Almost there, almost there!"
Despite saying that, the driver took her and drove around the airport exit area for a long time.
The driver immediately put his phone on speakerphone when another passenger called.
"Master, where are you?"
"I've been near the exit for ages, circling around several times, but I still haven't seen your car."
The person on the phone sounded clearly angry.
However, what alarmed Lan Yujuan even more was that the familiar male voice coming from the phone sounded like Liu Zhiyuan!
"Mommy," the little one tilted his head and pointed to the hands-free phone in front of him, "is that Daddy?"
Lan Yujuan quickly signaled her daughter to be quiet, her heart pounding like a drum.
The driver's Mandarin wasn't very standard; he gave the location several times, but the other person still couldn't find it.
After hanging up the phone, the driver also started to get annoyed and couldn't help but complain:
"So stupid!"
"He can't even find such an easy spot! What can someone like that accomplish?"
The driver was complaining when he turned the corner and saw a man standing under a streetlight ahead, using his phone for navigation.
"Beep, beep!"
The driver started honking his horn from a distance, muttering as he did so, "That must be him, right?"
Lan Yujuan recognized him from afar; it was indeed her husband, Liu Zhiyuan!
However, he will soon become her ex-husband.
Lan Yujuan quickly said, "Driver, I have my child with me in the middle of the night, I don't want to carpool."
"How about this, you name your price, and we'll just leave!"
"I'll reimburse you for the money the platform deducted from your online order!"
Upon hearing this, the driver's expression clearly brightened, and he said with a smile, "This... isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
"It's really not easy for me to come out and solicit customers so late at night, so I try to earn as much as I can."
"But don't worry, no matter how many people I take, I'll make sure you all get to your destination safely!"
Lan Yujuan watched as the taxi got closer and closer to Liu Zhiyuan.
Liu Zhiyuan had already checked the license plate against the platform information and was breathing a sigh of relief as he waved in the direction of the car.
Lan Yujuan quickly moved to the side and said earnestly:
"Driver, if you're sharing a ride, then I'll get off."
"I don't want to carpool, I'm willing to pay double the price!"
"And think about it, that passenger in front of me had such an unstable temperament."
"If someone leaves a bad review online after your ride, or complains about your poor service, delayed pick-up or drop-off, etc., you'll be in trouble later!"
Upon hearing this, the driver immediately made up his mind, glancing at the rearview mirror and asking, "Are you sure about double?"
Lan Yujuan nodded without hesitation, "Yes, double!"
She watched as the taxi approached and came to a stop near the streetlight. Liu Zhiyuan had already walked over and reached out to open the car door.
Unexpectedly, the driver stepped on the gas and accelerated.
It must have rained last night, because there was a large puddle right next to the streetlight.
As the driver sped away, he "whooshed" over the puddle, splashing mud and sewage that landed right on Liu Zhiyuan's face.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"
In the rearview mirror, Liu Zhiyuan was both angry and furious. He wiped the dirty water off his face and jumped up in a disheveled state to chase after the car while cursing.
Unfortunately, the taxi drove further and further away, eventually disappearing into the night.
Lan Yujuan slowly rolled down the car window, letting the gentle, warm breeze from her hometown caress her face...
