âExcuse me, could you bother to take a family photo for us, a family of three?â
As soon as Qin Youxuan entered the street park, she was stopped by someone.
A woman handed her a camera, holding a small baby in her arms that was only a few months old, its large eyes shining brightly.
ââ¦Okay.â
Qin Youxuan took the camera, signaling for the woman to carry her child over.
Not far away, a man was waiting for her.
As soon as he saw her coming with the child, he quickly reached out his hand to take the little one from her arms.
A very warm family of threeâ¦
As Qin Youxuan finished taking the photo and looked at the framed image, she froze. Her chest filled with discomfort.
The happiness of others only highlighted her own loneliness.
Once, she thought such days were within her reach.
Maybe one day, Dan Hanjie would take some time to come with her and their child to this unique little park and take a family photo.
âThe photo is beautiful, thank you.â The woman took the camera back from her hand and couldnât resist taking another look at Qin Youxuan. âMiss, you look familiar. Have I seen you somewhere before?â
âYouâre welcome.â Qin Youxuan returned the camera to the woman, and took one more glance at the baby nestled in her husbandâs arms. She didnât answer the womanâs question, but instead started walking towards the fountain area.
Since Dan Hanjie had announced their marriage and her photo was exposed, many people would probably find her familiar.
If the media were to find her, she was afraid she wouldnât be able to leave today.
Once, she was kept in a villa and stayed at home similarly.
But back then, Dan Hanjie was protecting her, even if it meant losing her freedom, she was content.
And now?
If she were forced to stay at home by the media, it would be a suffering of her own making.
Sitting cross-legged on the grass, Qin Youxuan propped up her chin, staring fixedly at the pond ahead.
She was in a daze.
The sky gradually darkened.
Only a hint of redness still hung in the sky, about to disappear.
The people who came to the park for a walk were all heading back, the crowd around her dwindlingâ¦
In this vast space, only she remained seated.
After sitting for god knows how long, her legs had gone numb. Qin Youxuan reached out to touch her cheeks and took out her phone from her pocket, dialing a number.
âMr. Tang, thereâs something I need your help withâ¦â
â¦
Fico City International Airport.
Welcoming and seeing off, countless crowds are coming and going in the airport terminal.
The slightly hurried footsteps amplified the melancholy of separation.
Qin Youxuan was still wearing the clothes from yesterday, alone, quietly sitting in the airportâs waiting hall.
Only carrying a small bag.
âXuan!â
Tang Nian, who hurriedly came, quickly spotted Qin Youxuan sitting in the departure hall and ran towards her with his briefcase.
âMr. Tang.â Qin Youxuan stood from her chair, giving Tang Nian a small smile.
She looked haggard after just one night, the sight of her was heartbreaking.
Tang Nian frowned, âWhy are you torturing yourself like this? If your dad saw you like this, he would probably scold you. Youâre so old and still canât take care of yourself.â
ââ¦â
Qin Youxuan touched her face and lowered her eyes to hide the bitterness within, paused for a while before raising her head again, âHave all the procedures been completed?â
âIâve delivered the divorce agreement to the Dan Group. After both parties formally sign, the divorce agreement can take effect.â Seeing Qin Youxuan biting her lip, Tang Nian paused a bit before continuing.
