Understanding that she had been thinking everything wrong and remembering how she had acted, Ning Wei's face was flushed red and her breathing was uneven.
'I was holding his hands, that is so wrong and Sister Meng was right beside us.'
Thinking about this, she subconsciously took a sneak glance at Yuan Meng who was smiling and ruffling Zhimen's hair.
Meanwhile, as she turned to look at the woman holding the boy she glanced at her as well.
Only to see the woman staring at her with her lips pursed and eyes narrowed as if thinking deeply.
'I am so dead.'
This was the only thought that came to Ning Wei's mind as she clearly understood what the woman in front of them was thinking.
"Ahhh, sheesh, I forgot, you must be in Qiqi's class, she told me that she, Xiao Ya and our Papa had snacks together and then you and your Mom dropped them."
Little Jia tapped herself on her forehead as she shook her head and then turned to Zhimen and his mother.
"Hehe, you must be Big Sister Jia, Qiqi always tell everyone how smart and good you are."
The little guy stared at her with his eyes wide open as if he was looking at a mini-celebrity.
Hearing the praise, Little Jia blushed as she shook her head.
"No no, I am not that smart, I just do how our teachers say hehe."
Meanwhile, Mrs Ji thought of something and sighed whiles shaking her head and then took a glance at her watch as she exclaimed.
The bell would ring in just a minute now and although there would be no such thing as punishment for the little ones, it would still be a bad remainder for their parents.
"Zhimen, let's go first, I will send you to the class."
"It's alright, we will wait here, Qiqi and Xiao Ya were taken by their teachers just a moment ago."
Ye Qian nodded seeing that the mother was again going to pick her son up and dash towards the entrance.
"Hmm, yes yes, we will wait, my school has a long time, hehe."
The little girl also grinned as she nodded.
"Hmm, thanks."
Mrs Ji nodded and then turned to Yuan Meng giving a nod.
"Bye Aunty, Big Sister Jia, Uncle."
The little guy waved his hand as he saw the three figures start to get smaller as his mother rushed towards the entrance.
"Bye Zhimen."
Little Jia exclaimed while Yuan Meng and Ye Qian both waved their hands.
"Can...can we go now?"
Embarrassed to still face the two of them, Ning Wei uttered, but then noticed that they didn't seem to answer her at all.
She took a glance only to see the trio staring at her.
"Mom, Papa just said that we were going to wait for Aunty, didn't you hear it."
Little Jia asked with confusion, she could not understand just how her mother was not able to hear their words even after standing just behind her Papa.
But seeing her mother's face was red and she was only staring down, the little girl got worried.
"Mom, why is your face red, are you ill?"
She let go of Ye Qian's hand as she walked to her mom wanting to check her body temperature.
"Mom, your body is hot, you are ill!"
The little girl exclaimed as her eyes started to get moist due to worry.
"Ahh, Jia that is not it, I have been standing in the sun for a long, so my body is much warmer, why would I not say I if I am ill, I would not want you or Qiqi or Xiao Ya to get ill as well right?"
Hearing her mother's explanation, the little girl gave a light hum as she nodded.
It was indeed true, if her mother had gotten ill, then she would tell to them or ask to go to the doctor, it was because illness would spread easily and infect her and her two sisters, of course, this was something that her teacher had told them in the class as well.
But it was just that she had never fallen ILL even when her mother had gotten a fever several dozens of times all this long.
But that didn't mean that her mother would not stop her from getting her daughter closer to her afraid that she would also get ill after coming in contact with her.
"Jia, your mom is telling the truth, she is not ill."
Ye Qian nodded as he stroked the little girl's head gently.
"Ummm."
"We will have to stay here for a moment, I want to ask Mrs Ji something."
Ye Qian said while turning to Ning Wei who looked restless as she fidgeted with her fingers holding her head low as if not wanting to face him.
And he somehow knew the reason behind it as well.
But he could only smile wryly telling himself that this was just a subconscious act due to envy.
He knew that there was no way that Ning Wei would consciously do what she had with seeing her all these days.
She was more like a sweet woman who would want to pay attention to her family but also not ask anyone to look out for her when she was down and try to help herself not letting anyone else know of her trouble.
In fact, Ye Qian felt that her being like this would only make her weak as she would not open herself out in front of anyone.
So far he had seen Yuan Meng and Ning Wei close, but it was never once that Ning Wei looked as if she was talking all her heart out.
Only during some of her extreme emotional state would she blabber but that would only cause Ye Qian to sigh in her heart feeling bad for her condition.
He knew that this woman who said that she had started to like him held many things deeper in her heart not wanting to tell anyone and help her with it.
But he also knew that there was no point in asking her all those things since that would only hurt her even more.
