184 Vacation

In fact, they were going back to Su City, the place where they grew up.

There was a Lake there that had just been developed, and lotus flowers were planted in it. Although the Lotus flowers didn’t bloom in winter, the view was could relaxed one’s mind. Qu Zhi had wanted to go there many times to enjoy the breeze and see the pedestrians hurrying to and fro. It was a very interesting sight.

Looking at the increasingly familiar place, Deng Dong’s face became more and more relaxed, and the light in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

“Qu Zhi, do you still remember that place?” Deng Dong excitedly pointed at the commercial house. that’s where we go to kindergarten!

Qu Zhi smiled.

Of course, she remembered. The laughter between the two of them seemed to have happened yesterday.

Now that the two of them had their own families and lives, time really did pass by quickly.

Deng Dong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, kept talking about interesting memories of their childhood, how she won all kinds of honors on campus when she grew up, how she met the equally outstanding Du Hu, and how she managed her small studio. As she spoke, her eyes were filled with tears.

She suddenly felt that giving birth was a mistake.

She should have thought about the child, but because of a moment of impulse, she could not go back to the past.

Everything had turned into bubbles.

Qu Zhi felt that her originally happy mood had suddenly dropped. She was probably worried about her child again.

“If you don’t want to be a mother today, I’ll give you a day off. Don’t think about anything else,” Qu Zhi reminded her gently.

“But it’s the same when we go back.” Deng Dong hugged her head. The thought of her child’s never-ending crying made her head hurt and nauseated.

She would always wake up from her dream, and she knew that this was just a futile escape.

“Let’s enjoy this for a while.” The night was like a gentle beast, covering the entire city, devouring it, and tearing it into bits of starlight.

Deng Dong quietly leaned against the window and nodded.

During dinner, Qu Zhi found a small restaurant and ordered a basket of paper dumplings and two bowls of chicken soup wontons.

Deng Dong, who was originally listless, took a sip of the soup. As if she had remembered something, tears fell down her face.

Qu Zhi quickly wiped her tears with a handkerchief, but the more she wipe it, the more violent Deng Dong’s tears became. The people around her couldn’t help but look at her, but Deng Dong’s tears couldn’t stop.

Qu Zhi had no choice but to order the wonton to be packed and they would bring it back to the hotel to eat.

“Do you still feel uncomfortable?” Qu Zhi hugged Deng Dong’s shoulders and patted her back gently. “It’s okay. If you have any concerns, just tell me.”

Deng Dong’s eyes were red as she pushed the distance away. She lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong. “Qu Zhi, I’m sorry. You’re taking time out of your busy schedule to accompany me, and I don’t even cherish it…”

“It’s fine. Aren’t we friends? Are you not feeling well?” Qu Zhi felt that she was acting a little strange. Her body was probably too weak, and she was already a little carsick from the car ride earlier. She also felt the cold wind, causing her face to turn deathly pale.

“I still miss the child.” She had never been away from her child for so long since he was born.

As they were talking, Deng Dong’s phone rang.

“Dongdong, have you reached Su City?” It was Du Hu’s voice. He was still unhurried.

Deng Dong stopped sobbing. “How’s the baby? Is he crying? Does he need to be fed?”

She looked like an employee who had been driven crazy by work. Instead of ensuring her own safety, she wanted to do her job well.

“Baby, the baby is fine. The baby can have milk powder now. The nannies are here, so he’s not crying very badly.” Du Hu heaved a sigh of relief. “Now that the baby is asleep, you and Miss Qu can have fun. I’m here.”

Deng Dong was so excited that she couldn’t speak. She pressed her phone tightly to her chest and looked at Qu Zhi with gratitude and disbelief. “Does this mean that you can do it without me?”

Du Hu coughed lightly on the other end of the phone. He was both angry and amused. “What are you saying?”

Deng Dong didn’t listen to him. She wanted to hear what Qu Zhi had to say.

Qu Zhi helplessly looked at her old friend’s haggard face and pretended to be relaxed as she gave her a warm smile. “That’s right. Relax. Your vacation has begun.”
