Cain didn't even care to check whether his phone was already broken or not.

Because he felt that he, himself was on the verge of breaking.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I?

Cain, let's calm down and think.

He arrived in China yesterday and had some businesses to attend in S city.

Presently, he was shopping for some clothes but then he saw a familiar back.

However, that person was holding a child's hand so he thought that he was mistaken.

Up until that tall woman turned her face sideways that is.

Therefore, he approached the two but he accidentally overheard their conversation…

Wait—Did my ears have a problem?

If not, how can I hear that little bun calling Old Ming...Mommy?

And that’s how the current situation came to be.

Back to the present, Cain's eyes went back and forth between the two before dumbfoundedly asked,"Mommy…?"

Of course, this question was directed at Xu Ming.

By now, Xu Ming's face has turned completely dark enough to drip ink due to Cain's appearance.

He tightly clenched his left fist to the point that a vein was popping on the back of his hand.

He had the urge to kill someone.

Or at least hit him strong enough to have amnesia.

Obviously, Xu Ming planned to leave the Xu family and lived in another identity meaning he was going to bury the fact that he used to be a ‘Mother’ and a ‘Wife’.

Xu Ming silently stared at Cain with terrifying eyes when all of a sudden, a crisp voice finally broke this eerily silence,"Mommy, who is that?"

Since her mother was staring intently at a certain strange man with blond hair and blue eyes, a foreigner who spoke Chinese, Xu Mei couldn’t help but ask.

Before Xu Ming could even utter a word, a surprised gasp was heard coming from the delirious Cain.

"I am not hearing things after all…"

Xu Ming unclenched his fist then spoke up,"Let's move somewhere else."

Of course, they moved to another location after buying those pajamas to which Cain looked even more terrified upon seeing them.

He sharply looked at Xu Ming with an expression like he was seeing a ghost.

The three sat down in a cafe shop.

"No wonder you didn't tell me your identity back then…"

Cain initiated the conversation after a long silence.

Xu Ming didn't say anything in return which meant that whatever Cain was thinking is indeed the truth.

Therefore, Cain deeply inhaled before slightly leaned forward,"How many children do you ha—

Before he could finish his sentence, his calf got kicked by Xu Ming under the table causing him so much pain that he could not even scream.

Not one bit guilty, Xu Ming warned with a death glare,"If you wish for early death, continue asking."

Cain meekly dragged his painful leg away before hurriedly saying,’’Okay, okay. I won’t ask.’’

He then turned to look at the little girl who has been staring at him for all this time.
