Chapter 86: Mother Of Two Children
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It had only been two years but Ji Xi already could not recognize Qin Yutong?
Qin Yutong felt as if someone had punched her chest. The pain she experienced was excruciating.
“Elder Brother, you’re so slow. Mama and I have been waiting for the whole day.” The spoiled girl Tang Zhixi ran over and tugged at Tang Zhimo’s arm as she complained.
“Both of them are yours? I wouldn’t have guessed you’re a mother of two judging from your youthful appearance!” Ji Xi widened his eyes in surprise. “These little darlings are so adorable.”
Qin Yutong studied him intently to catch a glimpse of any unusual expression displayed on his face. However, his face only revealed a tender smile which in turn froze her heart. She had never felt so distant from him before.
“Thanks for your time, bye.” Qin Yutong yearned to leave this place as soon as possible for fear that she would be suffocated by the dense air around her.
A mother of two?
They had been separated for less than two years thus how was it possible for her to be a mother of two four-year-olds? She was distressed by the bitter satire.
“Wait a second.” That man called out to Qin Yutong as she dragged the two children past him.
Qin Yutong was quick to react. Her brain instinctively ordered her to stop in her tracks but she did not turn to face him again. She felt her heart skip a beat and her breathing ragged.
Did he finally recognize her?
“Don’t you want your suitcases?” The beam on Ji Xi’s face widened as he looked at her. “Are you in such a hurry that you’re willing to abandon your suitcases?”
He lent her a hand and pushed the suitcases forward as he spoke.
“Thank you.” Disheartened, Qin Yutong reached out awkwardly to receive the suitcases.
She knew without a doubt that he had long forgotten about her. Why was she clinging onto the last bit of hope?
“Have we met?” Ji Xi did not loosen his grip on the suitcases. Instead, he knitted his brows and raised the question out of the blue. For reasons unknown to himself, he felt a sudden pang in the chest the moment she walked past him. The feeling that had materialized in his heart was unusually painful.
Besides, he felt like he had known her forever although her appearance did not ring a bell and he was unable to put that sense of familiarity into words.
Upon hearing his words, Qin Yutong froze for a second, and her lips curled into a pitiful smile.
Ha, how funny!
They had even…
Qin Yutong acknowledged that the past should remain in the past. Maybe her presence in his life was so insignificant that he could not even remember her.
“No, we haven’t.” Qin Yutong released the breath she did not even realize she was holding. She tried her best efforts to regain her composure. A smile even appeared on her face when she looked him in the eyes later. “Sir, that pick up line of yours is way too cheesy,” she added intentionally.
“Oh, perhaps I’ve mistaken you for someone else,” Xi Ji replied with an awkward smile. He truly felt like he knew her or at least had encountered her before.
This time around, Qin Yutong left quickly without saying goodbye.
Chu Wuyou who had been waiting at the arrival hall finally revealed a delightful grin on her face as soon as Qin Yutong and her two darlings appeared within her sight. She started walking toward them in great strides.
At the same time, Ye Lanchen who was standing not far behind from her was watching her every move…
