Chapter 1628
It wasn't until they entered the amusement park that Xi Xi became excited again, pulling Jing Lijian and running around with a smile.
It was rare for Jing Li to spend a whole day with her like this, let alone come to an amusement park, so she was so excited that when she smiled, her chubby little face seemed to bloom.
Before entering the amusement park, Jing Li handed the backpack she brought to Gu Wan.
There are everything prepared for Xi Xi, including warm water, wet wipes, towels, milk powder, sunscreen, mosquito repellent, and even a change of clothes.
So when Xi Xi was sweating profusely from playing and wanted to wipe her sweat with Jing Li, Jing Li pointed her in the direction of Gu Wan.
Xi Xi was still worried at first, but Jing Li was there to encourage her, and Gu Wan smiled gently and kindly. In the end, Xi Xi walked towards Gu Wan little by little.
After half a day passed, Xi Xi finally called Gu Wan "Mom" for the first time.
Gu Wan was so excited that her eyes immediately turned red. She hugged Xi Xi and kissed her again and again.
Xi Xi couldn't help turning her head to look at Jing Li. Jing Li just smiled at her, which made her feel a little more at ease.
In the evening, Gu Wan sent her aunt and nephew back to their residence, reluctantly said goodbye to Xi Xi, and made an appointment to take her out to play tomorrow before driving away again.
On the way into the community, Xi Xi hugged Jing Li tightly.
"What's wrong?" Jing Li asked her, "Do you miss your mother?"
But Xi Xi suddenly shook her head vigorously and said loudly: "I miss my aunt!"
"Little fool." Jing Li rubbed her head, "Auntie is always here, isn't she?"
Xi Xi didn't say anything more, but hugged her tighter.
When she got home and gave Xi Xi a bath, Jing Li asked her again: "Will Xi Xi be scared if mommy takes Xi Xi out to play alone tomorrow?"
"No!" Xi Xi said immediately, "I want to go with my aunt!"
After hearing this, Jing Li just nodded slightly and said, "Okay, aunt, let's go together."
Xi Xi became happy again and played with bubbles happily.
After Jing Li took Xi Xi out for several days, Duan Shan seemed to finally realize something and asked Jing Li on Thursday night: "Are you working this week or not?"
"No," Jing Li said, "I want to spend some time with Xi Xi."
After hearing this, Duan Shan rolled her eyes and said, "You don't have to make money anymore, right?"
Jing Li was quiet for a moment. After all, she didn't say anything about Gu Wan's return. She just said, "As long as Xi Xi is happy."
Over the past few days, Xi Xi and Gu Wan have become a lot closer. They know that when they are thirsty, they go to their mother, when they are hungry, they go to their mother, and when they need to wipe sweat and change clothes, they go to their mother.
Gu Wan also showed great patience and worked hard to make up for Xi Xi as a mother.
So on Friday afternoon, with Xi Xi's consent, Jing Li asked Gu Wan to take Xi Xi back to where she lived.
Xi Xi fell asleep in the car when we went back. When Jing Li got off the car, she was still asleep and unconscious. Jing Li didn't stay too long and got out of the car quickly.
Gu Wan whispered to her: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Xi Xi."
Jing Li nodded without saying anything more, watching Gu Wan's car gradually drive away and disappear from sight.
At half past four in midsummer, the sun was still fierce. She stood on the roadside a little absent-mindedly, with the sun shining directly on her, causing passers-by to look at her.
It wasn't until her phone rang that Jing Li finally moved.
She picked up the phone and heard a warm and touching voice coming from the other end. Then she moved the phone away and looked at the caller ID.
It's Huo Qiran.
"What's wrong?" Jing Li finally calmed down.
Huo Qiran on the other end of the phone said: "Didn't you say that Xi Xi is going to live with her mother today? Are you still together? I have a gift I want to give to Xi Xi, and it just so happens that I get off work early today -"
"She has gone back with her mother." Jing Li said softly.
After hearing this, Huo Qiran paused for a moment before saying, "Then where are you? I'll bring it to you, and you can hand it over to her tomorrow too."
"I..." Jing Li's voice was slightly hoarse. She only answered one word and seemed to be speechless.
"Wait for me at home." Huo Qiran didn't wait for her answer, just said, "I'll be here soon."
After hearing him say he would be here soon, Jing Li didn't move anymore and just stood there.
As soon as Huo Qiran's car drove to the gate of the community, he saw Jing Li standing there facing the sun.
Huo Qiran drove the car directly in front of her, and she didn't notice it. It wasn't until he got out of the car and walked up to her and called her that she finally saw him.
Seeing that her face was red from the sun, Huo Qiran hurriedly opened the car door and let her get in. Then he walked back to the driver's seat and said to her: "It's such a hot day, why are you standing here?
Do you know where to find a supermarket to get away from the cold?"
After hearing this, Jing Li just smiled slightly and said, "I'm lazy. I don't want to move when I'm standing."
Huo Qiran didn't say anything else, he just raised the temperature of the air conditioner, "One is cold, the other is hot, don't catch a cold."
Jing Li watched his movements, and after being quiet for a moment, she suddenly said, "Do you have time later?"
"Yes." Huo Qiran said, "What's wrong?"
"Can you accompany me to buy something?" Jing Li said, "It's for Xi Xi... but the stores are a bit far apart."
"It's okay anyway, just go shopping." Huo Qiran said.
The two of them first went to an imported milk powder purchasing store. Jing Li bought ten cans of expensive imported milk powder.
"Xi Xi only drinks this milk powder. Although she knows that her mother can give her better, she still needs a transition period and waits for her to adapt slowly."
Afterwards, the two of them went to a children's clothing store in the mall where Huo Qiran met her again for the first time.
"The last time I came to Xixi, I really liked a small skirt here, but it was too expensive, costing a thousand yuan. I couldn't bear to part with it at that time," Jing Li said.
At that time, she was unwilling to give up. This time, she was very willing and bought four or five sets for Xi Xi in one go.
Then the two came to a toy store.
Jing Li's goal was very clear and she went straight to her boss, "Boss, is that Totoro figure I asked about last time still available?"
"Yes." The boss obviously still remembered her, "but the price has increased by two hundred compared to the last time you came to see it. Do you want it again?"
"I want it." Jing Li replied without hesitation, then looked at Huo Qiran and said, "Xi Xi really liked "My Neighbor Totoro" after watching it. I have always wanted a Totoro... I am like the person in the cartoon.
If I can’t give it to her anymore, I can still buy a figure for her.”
When the two people left the handicraft store, it was already dark.
"Thank you for buying so many things with me today." Jing Li turned to look at Huo Qiran, "I'll treat you to dinner, what do you want to eat?"
