When school ended, Ning Ran did not dare show herself. Thus, she waited in the car and watched, as Qiao Zhan got the kids.

When they got into the car, Erbao immediately jumped into Ning Ran’s arms. “Mommy!”

“Did you know that I was in the car?” Ning Ran asked.

“Yes!”

“How?”

“Because Uncle Qiao Zhan is driving daddy’s car. If it were just him, he would have driven his jeep,” answered Erbao.

“Why couldn’t it be daddy then?” Ning Ran was curious.

“If it were daddy, he would have come out to personally pick us up. Mommy has been going through some misunderstandings, caused by bad people online, meaning that she can’t come out.” Erbao had a sharp mind.

Ning Ran hugged Erbao tightly in her arms without saying a word.

“Don’t be sad, mommy. We’re here for you,” assured Dabao, as calm and collected as ever.

“Mommy’s not sad. As long as you’re with me, Mommy’s not afraid of anything.”

“We should never have done the commercial behind your back. It’s all our fault. It won’t happen again. Sorry, Mommy,” apologized Dabao softly.

“Mommy’s not blaming you two. Besides, it’s all in the past now. The bad people can do whatever they want, just ignore them,” comforted Ning Ran.

“However, Mommy’s gone through so much misery. I’m so sorry Mommy.”

“Mommy’s alright.” Ning Ran was holding in her tears. “I have you guys.”

“Are we going to daddy’s company now?” Erbao struck once again.

“How did you know that? Ning Ran asked.

“Daddy’s definitely still busy with work, so he’s asked Mommy to come and get us, to wait at the company for him. When he’s done, we can have dinner as a family again. It’s been so long since Daddy and Mommy have brought us to eat some good food. I’ve lost so much weight from starving!” Erbao explained.
