The night is already very deep.

At the gate of the empty community, Lin Qianxiao and Little Milk Tea walked around the circular flower bed one after the other.

The dim orange street lights stretched the figures of the two into a long distance.

"Mom, how many laps have we walked?"

"15 laps."

"Then how many laps will it take before Dad comes out?"

Lin Qianxiao stepped forward and patted Milk Tea's head, "Milk Tea, are you tired from walking?"

Milk Tea looked up at her with a small face, "I'm a little tired."

Lin Qian smiled and pulled him to sit on the flower bed, "We won't leave when we're tired."

Little Milk Tea snuggled into her arms, "What if Dad doesn't come out?"

Lin Qianxiao held Little Milk Tea's white and tender face with both hands, a gentle smile appeared in her almond eyes, "It's too late now, Dad may be asleep."

"Oh."

Little Milk Tea thought about it half-understood, "Then can't we wake up Dad?"

"It's too far away, Dad can't hear it."

"Then I'll yell a few more times, maybe Dad will hear me."

Lin Qianxiao knew that Little Milk Tea was bored, but she was also the same.

But when I think that I will soon see the person I have been thinking about, the waiting is worth it.

"Then you shout, keep your voice down, don't disturb others."

Little Milk Tea nodded obediently, buried her face in Lin Qianxiao's arms, and called out cautiously, "Dad, wake up, Dad..."

...

The hour hand pointed to two o'clock, Jiang Zhi who was sleeping soundly opened his eyes suddenly, bloodshot and tired eyes were full of confusion.

After a while, his dark eyes gradually regained clarity.

He dreamed again, but this time, he didn't dream of Lin Qian laughing and dying in his arms, nor did he dream of dying with Kangtai, but dreamed that he was in the mist, and he kept hearing someone calling him.

Dad, Dad...

Jiang Zhi sat up from the bed, pinched his brows with a headache, got up after a while, and went into the small study next to him.

The small study is less than twenty square meters, and it was rebuilt from a balcony at the beginning.

The whole room is made of light steel structure, and the walls and roof are transparent glass walls, so you can see the sky when you look up.

There are three rows of white bookshelves against the wall on the left side of the study room. Except for a few books and green plants, the rest of the bookshelves are framed with photos of Lin Qianxiao.

On the right side of the study is a white desk of the same style.

Jiang Zhi walked to the desk, picked up the framed photo of him and Lin Qianxiao, stared at it for a while before gently putting it back in place, turned around and went to the recliner in the middle of the study to lie down, staring up at the dark night sky in a daze.

Smile, if you don't come back, I won't be able to wait any longer.

After a long time, Jiang Zhi suddenly thought of something, got up and went back to the bedroom to pick up his mobile phone, and found the strange number he received in the middle of the night last night.

After a while, he pressed the call button.

"Hello, who is it?"

Although it was a young girl's voice on the other end of the phone, he instantly recognized that it was not the person who called him last night.

When Jiang Zhi rarely hesitated to hang up, the girl said, "Are you the husband of that girl last night?"

"no."

Probably because Jiang Zhi's attitude and tone were too cold, the girl apologized awkwardly, "Ah, I'm sorry, maybe I made a mistake, then you..."

"Where is she?"

"She has already left, she seems to be returning to S City, she asked me what time the bus back to S City will leave..."

"thanks."

Before the other party finished speaking, Jiang Zhi hung up the phone.

A strange call from a stranger is not worth his attention.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, it seemed as if he could hear soft crying voices in his ears, and he kept calling him.

Jiang Zhi, Jiang Zhi...

One sound after another disturbed his mind.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Zhi got up with a sullen expression and went back to the bedroom.

...

"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

Facing serious questioning from two uniformed policemen, Lin Qianxiao stood up nervously and explained, "I'm waiting for someone."

"Waiting for someone?"

"Wait for Dad!"

Before Lin Qianxiao could answer, Little Milk Tea rushed to speak, "Mom and I are waiting for Dad."

Facing Little Milk Tea's exquisite and beautiful face, and eyes that shone brighter than black gemstones, the policeman's attitude was much gentler.

One of the policemen bent slightly and asked him with a smile, "Where is your father?"

Little Milk Tea pointed to the gate of Poly International Community, "Dad lives in there."

"Then why don't you call Dad?"

Little Milk Tea looked up at Lin Qian and smiled, then replied wittily, "Mom lost her phone, so I can't make calls."

Hearing this, the police subconsciously thought that Lin Qianxiao was the owner of the place, and asked her strangely, "Even if you lost your phone, remember which unit and floor you live in, and go home first, it's too late."

Lin Qian smiled and shook her head, "I can't get in."

"Why can't I get in? I lost the key too?"

"I don't live here."

The policeman was slightly stunned, "You and the child's father, don't you live together?"

"Well, he lives here alone now."

The police vaguely understood something, looked at Lin Qianxiao very strangely, probably misunderstood Lin Qianxiao as a mistress or a girlfriend.

But seeing her, a young and beautiful woman with a child, staying here in the middle of the night, I felt very pitiful.

The policeman sighed and took out his mobile phone, handed it to Lin Qianxiao, and said admonishingly: "It's so dangerous to stay outside at night, and you still have a child, so call the child's father and ask him to come pick you up go in."

After finishing speaking, he persuaded him earnestly: "If there is any conflict, sit down and mediate it carefully. Stuffing up can't solve the problem. You have to think about the child. In the middle of the night, you can bear it but the child can't, right?"

Lin Qianxiao took the phone humbly and receptively, and dialed Jiang Zhi's number nervously but excitedly.

"Beep...beep..."

Called twice in a row but no one answered.

"He may have fallen asleep."

Lin Qian smiled and returned the phone to the police, explaining with difficulty concealing her disappointment.

The police didn't believe Lin Qianxiao's words, and felt that the man might have ignored her on purpose.

One of the policemen asked Lin Qianxiao, "Do you know his landline number?"

Lin Qian smiled and shook her head.

The only thing she remembers and only remembers is Jiang Zhi's number.

The policeman was also helpless, "Then where do you live?"

"I don't live in S city, I came here to find him from other places."

The policeman stared at her and Little Milk Tea for a long time, and said, "Well, you can either go to a nearby hotel to stay overnight, or go back to the police station with us. Children always sleep, so we can wait until dawn to discuss anything."

No matter how stupid Lin Qianxiao was, she would never go to the police station with the police. She and Milk Tea came from another world, and she didn't even have an ID card.

"We'll just go to the hotel."

The two policemen had no objection to her decision. Considering it was too late, they insisted on sending them off.

Lin Qianxiao didn't dare and couldn't refuse, so she could only walk forward with Milk Tea.

After passing by several hotels, Lin Qianxiao didn't go in. The police guessed that she might be in financial distress, so they kindly reminded her: "There is a chain hotel on South Ronggui Road ahead. Although the rooms are a bit small, they are clean and the room rate is not expensive. It is very suitable for mother and son to live together.”

"thanks."

After walking for another two minutes, a 24-hour KFC appeared in front of us.

Lin Qian smiled happily and quickened her pace.

At the gate of KFC, Lin Qian smiled and turned to the two policemen, "I'll treat you to KFC. I'm sorry to cause you trouble at such a late hour."

The two police officers waved their hands again and again, "No need, we are not hungry, and it is duty time, protecting the safety of citizens is what we should do."

Milk Tea cleverly raised her head, "Mom, I'm hungry."

Lin Qian smiled and pointed to the red signboard not far ahead, "I've already seen the signboard of the hotel you mentioned, just wait and go by myself."

Seeing this, the two policemen didn't insist any more, turned around and left after a few words of advice.

Lin Qianxiao quickly breathed a sigh of relief and brought milk tea into the KFC restaurant.
