Chapter 125 - 124 When and Where Exactly (8)
The Cheng Family’s old residence was originally located in the city center, but due to bankruptcy and liquidation, the old house was mortgaged to the bank. Dong Xin Yan rented an apartment for Mrs. Cheng between the second and third rings of the city.
Though the place is rather remote, it’s advantageous in its serene and quiet environment, with complete surrounding facilities, making it perfect for Mrs. Cheng to rest and recuperate.
When Dong Xin Yan arrived at Mrs. Cheng’s apartment in Jing’an District by taxi, Mrs. Cheng was already waiting at the door. As soon as the car stopped, Dong Xin Yan opened the door and got out, calling out to Mrs. Cheng, "Auntie... "
Mrs. Cheng looked up to see Dong Xin Yan, her eyebrows curved in a gentle smile, "Xinxin, you’ve come."
Perhaps because she was to see her son today, Mrs. Cheng looked much better than before, with a bit more spirit in her brows.
Dong Xin Yan also smiled slightly, responding softly, then walked over to Mrs. Cheng, taking the insulated lunch box she was carrying, and said softly, "Auntie, get in the car."
"Okay."
The two of them got into the car, which started up again and headed toward the detention center.
Mrs. Cheng sat to the side, unable to help but murmur, "Xinxin, Ziyang has been in there for over a month now. I don’t know how he’s doing, if he’s eating and sleeping well, or if he’s lost weight. He wouldn’t let me visit him before, and it worried me sick."
After Mr. Cheng passed away three years ago due to illness, Mrs. Cheng shifted all her life’s focus onto this son, no wonder she was so worried and anxious.
