In that afternoon, after school, Dabao and Erbao discovered that their Mommy, who promised to pick them up from school, did not come. In her place was that familiar pretty lady Ouyang Qing.

“Where’s Mommy? Why doesn’t she come?” questioned Erbao with a tinge of unhappiness.

Although they had feigned politeness towards Ouyang Qing deliberately before, it was all an act to pacify Mommy.

In their hearts, they did not like Ouyang Qing a single bit even though she always displayed an angelic smile in front of them.

Even a little child understood that not everyone who displayed an angel’s smile was necessarily an angel.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Qing thought that her showing up would bring some cheer to the two children. However, that did not appear to be true.

Not only that, but the disappqointment also reflected in Erbao’s eyes was obvious.

The palpable disappointment shown by them was like a pail of cold water pouring down on Ouyang Qing. Her angelic smile tightened a little, trying to hide her annoyance.

She did not give up outright and still tried to cheer them up. “Your Mommy has gone on a last minute business trip. She asked me to come to pick you both up.”

Dabao and Erbao exchanged a suspicious look between each other as both wondered the same thought. Since when Mommy and you are so close that she would entrust you to pick us up? Why does it sound more and more unconvincing?

“I want to give Mommy a call,” said Erbao as she took out her little kiddy mobile phone.

“Darling, there’s no need. Your Mommy is busy. She’s currently recording a show.” Having said that, Ouyang Qing continued to explain, “The show recording is the kind where there’ll be lots of cameras zooming on your Mommy, hence she can’t be disturbed in any way. Do you understand?”

Ouyang Qing stopped herself hurriedly before she blabbered more.

Dabao winked at Erbao. Since Ouyang Qing had come to pick them up, he was sure she was not lying. There was no need to press the issue further.

Having always listened to her older brother, Erbao understood his wink. Since her brother hinted to her not to call, she would not insist on calling.
