Tang Zhimo had always been an independent child since young. He dragged his suitcase behind him with one hand and held his sister's hand with another.
Qin Yutong was responsible for more suitcases in comparison but she still held Tang Zhixi's hand close by for fear that she would lose the latter in the crowd.
"Mama, I need to use the bathroom." Halfway toward their destination, Tang Zhixi stopped walking abruptly and looked at Qin Yutong with a pout. Normally, both of these darlings would address Qin Yutong as 'Mama' when Chu Wuyou was not around.
"Darling, is it urgent?" Qin Yutong wondered if the little girl could wait for a bit longer seeing as they were approaching the gate.
After all, she needed to take care of two children alone in addition to all the suitcases. She feared that she could not handle it. If the girl could hold it in for a little longer then Chu Wuyou would be able to come into assistance.
"Yup." Tang Zhixi nodded frantically and her pitiful expression revealed that the situation was pressing.
"Alright, let's go to the bathroom." Despite having to drag the suitcases behind her, Qin Yutong decided to bring the kids to the bathroom nonetheless. She did not want the little darling to be uncomfortable and she worried an unwanted accident might happen.
Tang Zhixi was only four years old thus Qin Yutong was concerned about letting the former use the bathroom on her own. However, she also did not want to leave Tang Zhimo alone waiting outside of the bathroom.
Tang Zhimo's a matured little boy; he would never step into the ladies' room even at this age.
"I need a wee-wee, too." As if realizing Qin Yutong's awkward position, Tang Zhimo rushed into the men's room without turning back.
He did not even give Qin Yutong a chance to stop him.
After assisting Tang Zhixi with her dire situation, Qin Yutong and the girl exited the ladies' room but Tang Zhimo was nowhere to be found. Qin Yutong knew that the smart and sensible boy would wait by the door if he was done using the bathroom.
Therefore, Zhimo must still be in the bathroom for some reason.
Five minutes had passed but Tang Zhimo still did not appear from the men's room.
"Excuse me, sir, could you find out if there's a four-year-old boy inside the men's room?" Anxious, Qin Yutong noticed a person exiting the men's room and immediately requested for his help.
The cry for help blurted out of her mouth before she had a clear look at that man's face. She was taken aback when she lifted her head to meet his gaze.
Why him? Why did it have to be him?!
"Sure." That man agreed readily to the request without paying attention to the shocking expression on Qin Yutong's face. He reentered the men's room.
Qin Yutong stayed rooted to the spot and felt her body quivering uncontrollably. She never would have thought to encounter him ever again.
She treated the name Xi Ji as a buried memory that would stay in her mind forever.
Who would have thought that they would meet again after so long? They had not seen each other in two years.
Several moments later, Xi Ji exited the men's room along with Tang Zhimo."The little buddy's alright, don't worry."
"Thanks." Qin Yutong exhaled slowly to recollect herself. She tried to stay calm so she would not reveal her identity but immediately noticed her hands were trembling involuntarily.
She was extremely uneasy and on the verge of breaking out in a cold sweat!
"Not a problem, " Xi Ji replied with a grin, "Your little boy is adorable and very likable."
Ji Xi's expression was natural. The tender smile on his face did not seem out of place and his regard toward Qin Yutong appeared perfectly normal.
Upon seeing his smile, Qin Yutong averted her gaze and lowered her head slightly. Her lips pursed together when she realized he had not recognized her.
It had only been two years but he already could not recognize her?
