Ding Suiwan's house was not far away. They would reach it after a turn at the intersection ahead. Seeing that they were about to reach home, the girl was a little nervous.
A pair of small hands silently moved down from his waist, so there was a faint coldness there.
Xiao Ran instinctively glanced in that direction.
Then, she heard a soft voice from behind.
"Well, y-you can leave me here."
Her house was right in front. She was afraid that if her parents saw her, she would most likely not be able to hide her pregnancy.
After all, she was not good at lying. In addition, her mother, Li You, had a pair of discerning eyes. It was as if nothing could escape her eyes. Just thinking about it made her feel guilty.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran instinctively looked back.
"Don't you need me to walk you to the entrance of the community?"
The golden sunlight landed on his side profile, making his tall nose look even better.
The girl shook her head, her tone carrying a hint of nervousness.
"It'll be hard to explain if my parents see us."
Her voice was soft and sweet.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran nodded. "Alright, be careful."
"Mmm-hmm."
After saying that, the girl let go. Then, she moved her little butt and gently jumped out of the bicycle.
Her hair inadvertently brushed past Xiao Ran's arm, making it a little itchy.
As her palms moved away, Xiao Ran's warm abdomen suddenly turned cold.
He smiled at her. "Then be careful. I'll leave first."
"Mm, you too. Be careful," Ding Suiwan looked at him and whispered.
A large patch of golden light shone on her hair, dyeing the hair on her back golden.
This was the first time she looked at him so openly.
Her long and thick eyelashes were as beautiful as two small brushes. Her figure was clearly reflected in her clear and clean eyes.
Her small mouth was healthy and bright red.
Xiao Ran's heart softened for some reason.
He raised his eyebrows and teased her deliberately. "Take good care of our baby."
Hearing this, the girl's face turned red.
This bad person!
She knew that she had to take good care of the baby even without him saying it!
However, for some reason, she felt so warm and considerate.
Even her heartbeat inexplicably sped up!
The girl, who had always been obedient, was extremely embarrassed. She turned around and walked towards her house.
If she continued to talk to him, she would be too embarrassed to live!
Unfortunately, after taking two steps, she couldn't help but turn around and look in his direction.
After confirming that he had really left, she felt inexplicably empty.
She turned her head. 'I'd better go home.'
The sun gradually set, and the afterglow shone on every corner.
The signboard of the hairdresser's shop by the roadside and the bananas and oranges at the fruit stall.
She suddenly felt that this alley had become much better, but on closer look, she could not pick out any changes.
Her heart was still pounding non-stop. She was a little useless.
However, for some reason, her mind kept replaying his hard body and the pleasant smell of soap mixed with the air after being exposed to the sun when she hugged his waist just now.
As a result, her brain could not help but become slightly excited, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl into a smile.
Li You was already standing at the entrance of the community and looking around. Seeing her daughter coming over, she took a closer look and realized that she seemed to be different from when she went out in the morning.
Although Ding Suiwan's school uniform was a little loose, it was not big at all. It fit her very well.
However, the one she was wearing now was obviously much bigger than hers. It was already covering her butt!
It did look a little like a boy's school uniform.
Li You's heart tightened. Her intuition told her that there was something wrong with her daughter!
Just as she was about to call her, she realized that Ding Suiwan did not seem to see her.
She didn't know what Ding Suiwan was thinking, but her eyes were blurry and there was a faint smile on her lips.
That smile reminded her of when she was in love.
Hence, she became even more determined and closed her mouth.
She wanted to see what was going on with her!
She thought that the girl would see her when she walked to the door.
Unexpectedly, she did not even look at her. Ding Suiwan had that strange gaze the entire time and a faint smile on her lips.
Li You was a little confused.
She watched as her daughter walked up to her step by step and walked into the community area as if she did not see her. If she did not call her, she would probably walk home.
She shouted in her direction, "Little Wan!"
She was obviously here, but Ding Suiwan actually did not see her?
Ding Suiwan was still immersed in beautiful memories.
Hearing her mother's voice, she was shocked and almost jumped up.
What was going on? Ding Suiwan was as flustered as she was sweet just now!
"Mom?"
Her eyes were filled with fear as she hurriedly searched for Li You's figure. Her little head was also turning around.
Li You was in a bad state. Was Ding Suiwan stupid?
She took two quick steps forward. "What are you thinking about? Why are you so distracted?"
Seeing her mother standing in front of her, Ding Suiwan calmed down a little.
She instinctively said, "No, nothing. I was just thinking that today's questions are a little difficult…"
"?" Li You.
Shouldn't she be frowning when the questions were difficult?
What was with that smile?
She would not believe it even if she was beaten to death that there was nothing wrong with Ding Suiwan!
"Where's your uniform?"
Li You continued to ask.
Hearing this, the girl's eyelids twitched, and her eyes were filled with indescribable panic.
She instinctively looked down at herself.
Instantly, she felt her head buzz.
Oh no!
She was still wearing Xiao Ran's school uniform!!!
What to do!
Because she was nervous, the girl's nerves were tense. She tried her best to think of an excuse.
Her tone was also a little stuttery. "I-I accidentally wet my clothes while doing cleaning duty today. I borrowed this from a classmate."
Li You carefully sized up her school uniform and said meaningfully, "Oh, then your classmate is quite good to you."
"H-he's alright…" Ding Suiwan pursed her lips and lowered her head guiltily.
After saying that, she suddenly thought of something and looked up at Li You seriously. "It's Xiao Ran who lived with us when we were young."
Since she had already said that, the school uniform's matter could not be hidden anymore.
However, she was also very curious about her mother's impression of Xiao Ran.
After all, he was her future husband!
Hearing that it was Xiao Ran, Li You's brows relaxed a little.
"Oh, it's him."
To be honest, if it were anyone else, Li You would definitely be suspicious.
However, it was a different story for Xiao Ran.
After all, they had once lived in the same area as Xiao Ran's family and were considered neighbors.
Ding Suiwan had played with Xiao Ran a lot when she was young.
With their past relationship, she was naturally much more at ease with Xiao Ran than with other boys.
In his memory, Xiao Ran was still the same as when he was young. He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and was fair and clean. He looked likable.
However, although Li You was a little relieved, she was not completely relieved.
After all, she and Ding Hong were childhood sweethearts and playmates who grew up together. In the end, their relationship underwent a qualitative change in high school.
She pretended to be relaxed and probed, "Have you two been on good terms recently?"
Hearing this, the girl shook her head. Then, she suppressed her heartbeat and lied seriously.
"That's not the case. It's just that we cleaned up the classroom together today and I happened to wet my clothes, so he lent me his."
She sounded extremely serious when she spoke.
She tried to make her lie sound true.
Li You's tone was easy-going. As she walked, she asked, "Then why are you back so late today? Did you encounter any problems in school?"
One had to know that Ding Suiwan had been in a nervous and anxious state some time ago.
However, in the past two days, not only had she recovered, but there was also a faint smile on her lips from time to time, as if she was recalling something beautiful.
Especially just now, Ding Suiwan did not see her when she was walking. This was too exaggerated!
This made her, as her mother, more or less worried.
Hearing this, the girl stopped in her tracks and a trace of panic flashed across her eyes.
Her fair little hand instinctively grabbed her bag.
A layer of sweat seeped out of her forehead.
Because she was nervous, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Her beautiful collar bone also moved slightly.
"Well, the English test today was very difficult. My classmates and I discussed it. Then, we lost track of time…"
One had to know that lying required very good mental quality and flexible thinking.
Ding Suiwan clearly felt that it was already difficult. If her mother continued to ask, she might really be exposed.
Li You was relieved after understanding the cause and effect.
"I see…"
Actually, as long as she paid a little more attention to the expression on Ding Suiwan's face, she would realize that something was wrong with this girl.
However, it was precisely because Ding Suiwan had always been obedient that Li You was relieved.
After worrying about her daughter, she could not help but worry about her husband again.
"What time is it? I'll call your father again and ask if he's coming back for dinner tonight."
Ding Suiwan heaved a sigh of relief.
If her mother continued on, she would really not be able to withstand it!
After entering the house, Li You hurriedly changed her shoes and walked towards the red landline phone on the television cabinet.
Then, she picked up the phone and called her husband, Ding Hong.
Ding Suiwan's house was completely decorated in a Chinese style, giving off an elegant feeling.
The girl unhurriedly took off her white shoes, revealing a pair of clean white socks.
Then, she took out her pink bunny slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them on. Only then did she walk to the dining table and pour herself a glass of cold water.
Li You, who was in front of the television cabinet, couldn't help but complain, "Your father is really something. He's still so slow in picking up calls on his cell phone!"
In this day and age, "Little Smart" had just begun to become popular. Although there were already cell phones, many people still chose to use landlines because of the price.
After all, landlines were cheap.
Li You was still nagging when the call was finally picked up.
Then, Ding Hong's voice came. "Were you guys not at home just now? I called home, but no one picked up."
