This time, Shi Ping was mentally prepared.

Beijing is so big, it’s unlikely to meet you.

Even if we meet, we may not recognize each other.

But who would have thought that she would come face to face with Xu Yingzhong when she was shopping in the mall with her two children today.

Xu Yingzhong was first attracted by the two children, then he recognized her as soon as he looked up.

In fact, she recognized Xu Yingzhong the moment she saw him.

After all these years, she can still see some of his past.

The two looked at each other and could only recognize each other.

They found a place to chat. Xu Yingzhong was quite excited. In comparison, Shi Ping seemed much calmer.

It seemed as if nothing could bother her anymore.

"Xu Yingzhong is your biological father. I was heartbroken by him back then, and I returned to the countryside without knowing that I was pregnant with you..." Shi Ping's voice was light.

This was the first time she mentioned this matter to her son.

"So many years have passed. Whether you want to recognize him or not is your choice." Shi Ping did not intend to interfere with her son's thoughts.

My son is so old now, it’s his own business whether he wants to recognize his parents or not.

Anyway, she had no plan to have any further contact with Xu Yingzhong.

The older you get, the clearer you see things. Everything is external to you, including love.

She was young and impulsive before, and she regretted it for many years after it happened.

Now I feel that there is nothing I regret and I have let go of everything.

People have to reconcile with themselves eventually.

Shi Cheng turned around and happened to see the smile on Shi Ping's face. He asked softly, "Mom, don't you blame him anymore?"

Shi Ping smiled, her eyes and eyebrows showing indifference.

Shi Cheng understood and laughed too, "I think the same as you, it's all in the past, and we are living a good life now."

There is no need to change.

The mother and son came out of the room after chatting.

Shi Cheng immediately saw Ling Yao sitting on the sofa reading a book, "When did you come back?"

Ling Yao looked up and stretched, "Not long."

"By the way, our company has recently invested in several real estate companies, and the first one we invested in has been completed." Shi Cheng suddenly remembered this and mentioned it casually.

Ling Yao hummed and said nonchalantly, "That's great. I forgot to tell you that you can start pre-sales while building. This way, you can get a lot of money back after the house is built."

Shi Cheng's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea. I'll go to the company now."

This plan is very good, he needs to discuss it with the team.

"Hey, why are you in such a hurry? This guy is really..." Shi Ping couldn't stand the way he put work first.

When you focus all your attention on work, you pay less attention to your family.

Work is just a necessity for making a living, but it is family that brings happiness.

With nothing to do in the afternoon, Ling Yao planned to take Shi Ping shopping for some clothes.

The little angel didn't know when it would recover, otherwise she would pick out some new styles for her aunt from the system mall.

Several people came to the mall.

The last time Shi Ping brought her children here, they only visited the play and snack areas, and did not visit the clothing area.

This time, Ling Yao led a few people straight to the clothing area.

"Auntie, I come to this store often. The styles are all very nice. There are clothes for all ages. Please pick two sets."

Since she was already here, Shi Ping wasn't the type to spoil the fun.

She planned to pay for the clothes herself after she had chosen them.

When she saw the number on the trademark, she was still shocked.

Just getting an opinion can cost several thousand dollars, and the cheapest one can cost several hundred.

Really expensive.

But this is Beijing City Mall, so it's understandable that it's a bit more expensive.

Thinking about my life, I have never bought myself a nice piece of clothing at this age. It’s quite sad.

She decided today that she had to pick out two decent pieces for herself, regardless of the price.

Ling Yao turned around and took down a few sets, "Auntie, try these."

They were all summer suits, some low-key and restrained, some a bit more luxurious, and she picked them all.

Shi Ping also selected a few sets for herself.

"Xixi?"

Ling Yao was waiting in the rest area with her child when she suddenly heard Xu Yingzhong's voice.

Before she turned around, Xu Yingzhong appeared in front of her.

"It's really you. I was wondering why you looked so familiar." Xu Yingzhong greeted with a smile.

Ling Yao smiled and said, "Yeah, what a coincidence."

I heard that last time my aunt was taking care of the children she also ran into Mr. Xu. It was too much of a coincidence that she ran into him again this time.

"Bring the children here to buy clothes." Xu Yingzhong was talking to Ling Yao, but his eyes were searching the store, hoping to see that figure.

"Take a look at this set. I think I quite like it." Shi Ping pushed open the door and looked at herself in the mirror. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Xu Yingzhong's smiling face in the mirror.

The smile on her face faded.

Xu Yingzhong looked at Shi Ping, who looked even more radiant in her new suit, and felt as if he had returned to that time more than 20 years ago.

He really liked Shi Ping back then.

Ever since Shi Ping left, she has become a permanent thorn in his heart.

"Why are you here?" Shi Ping instantly lost the mood to try on clothes.

Xu Yingzhong explained palely, "I came here for a walk and happened to see Ling Yao here with her child."

Ever since he met Shi Ping, he has been hanging around the mall for several days, just trying to create chance encounters with Shi Ping.

"Oh." Shi Ping really didn't want to pay attention to him.

She was so unlucky even when shopping that she lost her mood.

She didn't want to try on the remaining clothes and just packed them up.

When it was time to check out, Xu Yingzhong wanted to pay, but Shi Ping glared at him and glared back.

Who cares about his money? It’s not like I can’t afford it.

While the two were arguing, Ling Yao had already settled the bill.

In the following time, Grandpa Xu insisted on taking the two children out to play and eat delicious food.

After all this, using the child as an excuse left Shi Ping speechless.

On the way home, Ling Yao looked at Shi Ping who was silent beside her and burst out laughing.

Shi Ping touched her face and asked suspiciously, "Is there something on my face?"

Ling Yao shook her head. "Can't you see that Mr. Xu must have put a lot of thought into this?"

"Humph, who cares about him like this." Shi Ping didn't care at all, "Belated love is cheaper than grass."

She had long passed the time of being a little girl.

"Grandma, what does this sentence mean?" Ling Xixi asked without any hesitation.

Shi Ping immediately covered her mouth and reluctantly explained, "Xixi, don't learn it. Xixi will naturally understand it when she grows up."

She really speaks too quickly. Why does she say these things in front of the children?

Ling Yao smiled even more happily and thought Shi Ping was quite cute.

Mr. Xu didn't meet anyone at the mall for a few days, so he came home.

He said he was here to see the children, but everyone knew what he was really thinking.

After three days of this, Shi Ping could no longer bear it and asked, "Are you done yet?"

Mr. Xu was stunned for a moment, with an innocent expression, "What's wrong with me?"
