Super Sweet, 100\% Honeymoon

Chapter 1069 - 1065: Past Events (2)

This camphor tree has always been the agreed meeting place for the two to play together.The time set for yesterday was right after lunch.

But as the sun slowly edged towards the west, no matter how he waited, An Ran did not appear.

Chi Cheng was starting to worry.

Did something happen to An Ran? Or maybe that little scatterbrain got lost?

But An Ran’s home is clearly nearby, in that row of houses up ahead.

Chi Cheng decided he couldn’t wait any longer, he had to go find An Ran at her house.

He jogged forward and met An Ran’s mom, who was leading little An Ran back home, at the corner of the alley.

"An Ran." He called out crisply.

Walking forward, he politely bowed to An Ran’s mom like a little gentleman and greeted her before turning to An Ran, "Why didn’t you come to the camphor tree? I was waiting for you to play together, to go to the beach to build sandcastles. Let’s go."

Little An Ran, with a sullen expression, hid behind her mom, "I don’t want to play with you. I don’t like you. Don’t come near me."

Chi Cheng was taken aback.

An Ran’s mom looked at Chi Cheng, "Are you An Ran’s friend? I’m sorry, she probably can’t go out these days. You should go find other children to play with, alright?"

After speaking, An Ran’s mom led An Ran away.

Chi Cheng turned around, feeling like he was treading on cotton, slowly leaving.

An Ran’s mom held An Ran’s small hand as they returned home, wanting to scold her and ask if she’d dare be naughty again.

But seeing An Ran looking so frightened, she couldn’t bring herself to be harsh.

This little girl fell from such a height this morning and bumped her head!

Fortunately, the hospital check-up showed she was fine.

However, the doctor said An Ran, despite being so young, had developed selective amnesia due to the head trauma.

An Ran’s mom looked at her small daughter and chuckled to herself.

An Ran is just a child, and they speak of selective amnesia?

Even without it, when An Ran grows up, she might well forget what happened when she was so little, right?

Therefore, An Ran’s mom was not overly worried about it.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Chi Cheng returned alone, back to the camphor tree.

When that girl, who always chased after him sweetly calling him Chi brother, suddenly said she didn’t want to play and not to come near her.

Chi Cheng pursed his lips but still waited there.

He waited until night fell, but An Ran did not come.

Feeling lost, he returned to the summer villa of his home, where his mom was absent.

She didn’t come back the whole night.

The next day, Chi Cheng received the letter that his mom had entrusted to Lin Wanqing.

After opening and reading it, Chi Cheng’s world instantly collapsed.

...

The heavy metal music in the bar buzzed intensely against the eardrums.

Lin Wanqing sat there in a miniskirt, holding her phone high.

Her eyes unwaveringly watched Chi Cheng, who stood frozen in place, lost in thought.

He looked so handsome.

He was good-looking even as a child.

As he grew up, he became even more attractive.

Seeing him seemingly deep in memories, Lin Wanqing waved her hand, "Chi Cheng? Chi Cheng?"

The light in Chi Cheng’s eyes subtly flickered as he slipped his hands into his pants pockets.

Lin Wanqing said earnestly, "I’m helping you, think carefully why Aunt Chi would commit suicide, who was responsible for this?"
