Mo Yangyang let out a relieved sigh. She said, “Yeah, you’re right…”

“I heard Aunt Want that sells deep-fried breadsticks say that a gentle, good-looking man like him is good at tricking people…”

Xie Xize’s close-up appeared on the screen. He was so handsome that every woman would have an urge to scream at his face.

Latiao asked, “Were you tricked before?”

Mo Yangyang wanted to cry. She was not tricked, she was being hunted!

She waved her hand, “No, of course not, your mother is so smart. How can anyone trick me?”

Latiao rolled his eyes, “Hehe…”

As if I’m going to believe you!…

“If you weren’t tricked, where did I come from?”

Mo Yangyang clenched her chest. Such a stab to the heart. Why were her son’s questions so deadly?

She said with a serious voice, “Your father is a good man, but… he died too early.”

Latiao waved his hand and said, “See, you were tricked into giving birth to me, yet you’re still talking nice about him.”

She… She could not afford to keep going. She quickly switched the topic, “Let’s not talk about that. If you don’t like him, why are you watching his news?”

“I heard the news say that he’s very rich…”

“Huh?”

Latiao stated in his immature voice, “I will be rich just like him. I will be richer than him!”

It was Mo Yangyang’s first time hearing her son say that. “Why do you want to be rich?”

Latiao looked at Mo Yangyang, “I’ll open a huge restaurant for you. You won’t have to cook yourself, so you will stop injuring yourself clumsily.”

Her son’s eyes were glittering.

His thoughts might have matured at a young age, and he might be extremely smart, but he was still a kid that deeply cared for his mother.

Mo Yangyang’s heart was boiling, and her eyes reddened. She smiled, “Sure, I’ll wait for you.”

Mo Yangyang had met an aged couple that owned a small restaurant during her most difficult times.

The couple was childless. Mo Yangyang initially worked in their restaurant as a kitchen helper to feed herself and her son.

As Latiao grew up, he was so adorable that the aged couple was treating him like their own son, too.

They liked Latiao so much that they could not bear to let him go.

They had placed Mo Yangyang in charge of the restaurant after they decided to retire.

Mo Yangyang changed her surname to be the same as theirs. Her surname was now Han.

Latiao’s full name was Han Weilan!

{

TL Note

: “Weilan” means sky blue in Chinese.}

It had been a pleasant day when he was born. The sky was blue and clear…

Mo Yangyang asked smilingly, “Kiddie, are you done with the accounts? It’s getting late. It’s time for you to take a shower and head to bed.”

Latiao said disdainfully, “Humph, I’ve long finished them. It would take you until next year to finish them on your own.”

Mo Yangyang put on a sad face. “Is mom really that stupid?”

Latiao hesitated. “Not really,” he admitted.

Mo Yangyang’s face lightened up. She smiled, “Time for bed. Let’s go visit grandpa and grandma after the restaurant closes tomorrow.”

“Sure!”

Mo Yangyang had brought Latiao to the restaurant, since she had to finish the accounts for the week tonight. He had been doing the accounts on her behalf since he was three.

There was a room upstairs in the restaurant. Mo Yangyang would occasionally spend the night here.

She checked the door and the windows to make sure they were locked before heading upstairs with her son.

—

Mo Yangyang heard some faint noises coming from downstairs around midnight.

She quickly came to her senses. Someone had broken into the restaurant!

Mo Yangyang was worried. She did not dare turn on the lights. She quickly carried Latiao and hid him under the bed.

Latiao was still in a daze. His innocent face no longer had the mature look like the one he had in the day. He cried out softly, “Mom?”

There were footsteps approaching the stairs. Mo Yangyang covered Latiao’s mouth and whispered, “Latiao, be nice, hide here and don’t come out. Call the cops for me.”
