Su Mo saw Xia Tian Meng at the kitchen door, a simple white shirt and black high-waisted pants outlined her curvaceous figure, tied with a pink floral apron, long hair tied back in a bun, simple and refreshing. She was lowering her head to cut vegetables, her profile under the fluorescent light looked exceptionally gentle.

  This is what he has been thinking about for five years, and it's the memory that lingers in his mind when he wakes up from a midnight dream.

  She was now just two meters away from him, but he stopped in his tracks.

  "Uncle?" Noaman looked up at Su Mo with a puzzled expression on his face, he didn't understand why this uncle was looking at Mommy with such a strange gaze, as if he was about to cry!

  In the summer, Mo Wen heard that he turned his head and looked at Su Mo's complicated eyes. He slightly raised the corners of his lips: "Are you here?" His tone was casual, as if there had been no gap between them for five years, as if they were still together, just like they had never parted.

  Su Mo pursed her lips, and her eyes felt a little sour, but after a long time, she only hummed in response.

  He was afraid that once he spoke, tears would flow out. He waited for five whole years, even though he told himself countless times that she would return, and he really believed it. How much he feared that she had stayed outside for too long and felt that he wasn't the most suitable one for her after all, perhaps she met a man who made her heart skip a beat, if she fell in love with someone else, then he had waited in vain.

  He had been worried for five years, and the more he expected it, the more he feared it. He looked forward to the expiration of the five-year agreement, but was also afraid that the answer would not be a good one.

  Now that I've seen her, she's become even more mature and charming with the gentle treatment of time. Her gentleness has become even deeper within herself than five years ago, and just a slight smile can make people feel the warmth in it.

  In the summer, Meng looked at Su Mo like this and didn't think it was strange. She knew that when she said she wanted to make herself excellent, Su Mo hadn't stopped moving forward either. Just from the fact that Huan Yu Group went from being one of the three domestic giants to leading the pack, you could see how hard he had worked in the past five years. Even 80% of the top domestic brands came from Huan Yu!

  "Noaman, go read a book yourself." Xia Tian Meng looked at Su Mo with her head tilted, now Su Mo needs to calm down properly.

  Noaman pouted and glanced at Su Mo before walking into the living room in her cute little slippers.

  As Xiamen Miao turned her head to chop vegetables, Su Mo walked closer to her. Looking at her delicate and beautiful profile, he opened his mouth: "Mengmeng, isn't this a dream?" He had dreamed countless times of her returning, with some dreams having her smile and tell him she was back, while others told him not to wait anymore. Suddenly seeing the person he thought about day and night, he felt it was somewhat unreal.

  Summer's nose was sour, she turned her head to meet his moist eyes, pursed her lips: "Su Mo, I'm really back." She knew how long he had been waiting for her. As the president of Yuanyu Entertainment, there were so many women who threw themselves at him, even daughters of wealthy families were not uncommon, but he was willing to wait like this just for her, a woman who didn't love him and carried another man's child.

  Su Mo suddenly pulled her into his arms, burying his face in her hair, sniffing the faint scent on her body. His dry voice spoke up: "Meng Meng, you don't know how much I miss you." It felt like the whole world was just a shadow of hers. No matter what he did, he would think of her, even when he rested, his mind was still filled with thoughts of her.

  In the summer, Meng felt a liquid sliding down from his neck, and all he could do was hold him tight and say, "Su Mo, I'm sorry." She was too self-willed, and it was always him who suffered. Because he loved himself too much, so he would be sad, fearful, hopeful, and unable to let go.

  Su Mo hugged her to calm the 'excitement' in his heart, smiling and saying: "Don't apologize, never apologize. I want to thank you, Mengmeng, thank you for really coming back, without making me wait in vain!" Releasing his hand, he lowered his head and covered her lips with his own, feeling his own lips trembling.

  In the summer, Meng smiled and looked up at him with eyes full of tenderness: "I also want to thank you. Thank you for your waiting and not giving up." Only those who have been abandoned will truly understand the difficulty of being waited for. When she made the decision to leave, she had already thought it through. If Su Mo hadn't waited for five years, then she would have taken Noaman and lived alone. Her mission was to conquer the male lead's heart and give the 'female' supporting character a good ending. In the absence of a good man, living alone was the best outcome.

  But Su Mo really did it, he waited for five years after leaving without any warning.

  Su Mo looked up at her with clear eyes, feeling embarrassed about what had just happened. He rolled up his sleeves, picked up the kitchen knife and smiled: "I can cook now too, today you get to taste my skills." In the five years she was away, he learned all sorts of cuisines, even the tea art and desserts she liked. Even Su's mother at home couldn't help but exclaim that her son was a rare good man.

  His initial intention was just because he wanted to learn what she liked.

  In the summer, Mo walked to the side and washed vegetables, smiling without raising his head: "It's really a change in three days." The original Su Mo who couldn't even chop vegetables had become a man who could wash his hands and make soup for her, all of this was just for her.

  Su Mo also smiled silently, he had never thought that he would have such a day for a 'woman', as if he couldn't wait to hug the moon just to make her smile. But his ability was limited, all he could do was try his best to protect her completely.

  "Noaman is Min's child." In the summer, Meng handed over the clean dishes to Su Mo and suddenly spoke up, seemingly unaware of Su Mo's momentary stiffness. She looked at him, "I used to think it didn't matter, but what about now?" When nothing has happened, people always have the courage to say how they would face things if they did happen, but when everything is right in front of them, they realize that their previous assumptions were all empty.

  Su Mo turned his head and stared at her, his dark eyes filled with determination: "The words from five years ago are still effective today. Mengmeng, I love you, so I will love everything about you, including Noaman." His first reaction to her giving birth to Noaman was not that the child was Min Yu's, but rather thinking of her being alone in a foreign country, how hard it must have been for her to take care of the child. All he could do was secretly ask her neighbor to help take care of the child, so she could catch her breath.

  In his eyes, Noaman is Xia Tian Meng's child, who the father is has nothing to do with him.

  "I still want to continue standing on the stage." Xia Tian Meng slightly raised the corner of her lips, and her round eyes shone with a brilliant light. She knew that many female artists would choose to retire once they married into a wealthy family, but she didn't want to.

  "All I can do is build a stage for you." Su Mo smiled and stroked her cheek, his eyes infinitely gentle. "I let Huan Yu become the boss just because I wanted to pave the way for you, so that no one in the domestic circle can bully or humiliate you."

  He wanted to protect her from all harm and spare her from worry and fear.

  That's all.
