When Bai Haoxue finally got a clear look at the little bun's face, she froze. It was as if all the blood in her body had turned to ice...
His face... his face looked exactly like Ji Hanyu's, the only difference being one was a magnified version and the other a miniature.
This little bun was practically carved out of the same mold as Ji Hanyu.
Could it be that Ji Hanyu already had a child?
Was she still too late?
If her child were still alive, they would probably be about the same age as this little bun, right?
Her precious one would also look so much like Ji Hanyu, wouldn't they?
And the little bun, upon clearly seeing Bai Haoxue's face, also hesitated but was more shocked.
This woman, she looked so similar to the drawing Dad had made, he thought it was just Dad's imagination!
"What's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me like that?" The little bun shook his small hand.
Her gaze was complex and peculiar, something the little bun found hard to understand.
"Can I hug you for a moment?" Bai Haoxue looked steadily at the little bun, her eyes slightly moist.
If only her precious one were still alive, how wonderful that would be!
But that was impossible; her child had died in her arms.
"In light of the fact that you saved me, I'll let you hug me." He had never let any stranger hug him before.
The little bun opened his small arms, and Bai Haoxue drew him into her embrace.
It was a while before Bai Haoxue released him, and as she did so, she quickly planted a kiss on his small cheek while he wasn't paying attention.
"Alright, you should hurry back, I must be going too," Bai Haoxue said.
"You actually kissed me? You actually kissed me? How could you steal a kiss from me?" Until now, he'd never been kissed by a woman before, how could this woman steal a kiss from him?
Now that she kissed him, she had to take responsibility!
For some reason, the little bun's cheeks and ears suddenly flushed red. He gave Bai Haoxue a glare, then glared at the ground, and walked off in a huff.
After taking just a few steps, he ran back with a pit-pat, then spoke very earnestly and seriously to Bai Haoxue, "Thank you for saving me today, I will repay you."
"Also, I saw you from the tree earlier dealing with that fake woman, you were so cool!" The little bun gave Bai Haoxue a big thumbs up.
He had just climbed up the apple tree when he heard screams from the swimming pool area. He focused his eyes and saw her kick Bai Youran into the pool with one swift move.
Excitedly clapping, he tried to climb higher for a better view, but accidentally got his foot stuck.
Bai Haoxue chuckled softly, ruffled his little head, and soothed him before he could flare up, saying, "You're cool too!"
"Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
Back at the hotel, Bai Haoxue found the first aid kit to apply medicine to herself.
Initially, she hadn't noticed the abrasion she got when she fell while catching the little bun, but upon lifting her clothes, she realized it was quite serious.
But fortunately, that adorable little bun was unharmed.
Thinking that the little bun was Ji Hanyu's son, Bai Haoxue felt a mix of sourness, bitterness, and relief in her heart.
He has an adorable son now, so he must have been doing well these past years.
No wonder he didn't want her to stir things up for him!
Turns out he already has a new lover and family.
She should have checked. She shouldn't have impulsively rushed to find him as soon as she returned.
Since he has a son, a new lover and family, she would definitely not disturb him again.
No matter how much she loves him, no matter how hard it is to let go, she must keep away from his world!
