Qiao Nian looked around but didn’t see anyone else. A trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, but she quickly focused on Xiao Shi.
Xiao Shi stood in front of the tombstone. When she saw Song Man’s photo, there was suddenly no trace of sadness in her heart.
In the photo, Song Man had a bright smile on her face. Everything around her paled in comparison.
Song Man was rarely happy. Xiao Shi still remembered that on Song Man’s birthday, she had secretly prepared a cake for her. Song Man had smiled happily.
At that time, Xiao Shi realized that Song Man looked very good when she smiled.
She had always thought that Song Man was unhappy because she only had one arm.
Xiao Shi recalled everything she had done with Song Man. She had never expected Song Man to be a bad person.
"Can I speak to her alone?" As Xiao Shi spoke, she looked up at Qiao Nian and asked seriously.
Qiao Nian nodded, then let go of Xiao Shi’s hand and walked away with Gu Qi.
There was a public chair not far away. She sat on it with Gu Qi, so she could see Xiao Shi.
Xiao Shi stood in front of the tombstone, staring unblinkingly at Song Man’s photo. She avoided the flowers in front of the tombstone and walked to it.
Her young hand gently wiped Song Man’s photo, and her eyes turned slightly red.
Although she knew that Song Man had ill intentions, she had spent five years with her every day and night. It was impossible to say that she had no feelings for her.
"Mommy..." Xiao Shi called out softly, her voice choked.
In a daze, she seemed to see Song Man sitting at the side and smiling at her.
"Mommy..." Xiao Shi walked towards Song Man. Just as she was about to hug the tombstone, she seemed to have thought of something and retracted her hand. "I can’t call you Mommy anymore!"
"Yes, Qiao Nian will be a good mommy. She’ll take good care of you!" Song Man said softly. She reached out to touch Xiao Shi’s face, but just as her hand was about to touch it, she retracted it. "You don’t have to miss me!"
Xiao Shi looked at Song Man, her eyes red. She sniffled.
"Xiao Shi, eat well, sleep well, and grow up well. Don’t come again!" With that, Song Man walked towards the tombstone and instantly disappeared.
Xiao Shi came back to her senses. She didn’t know if she had imagined everything that had just happened, or if she had really seen Song Man’s soul.
"Mommy!" Xiao Shi looked at the tombstone, her tears falling uncontrollably.
Song Man fed her awkwardly with one hand.
Song Man always had a sorrowful expression on her face. Occasionally, she would even smile.
