"Your... mother?"
Seeing that line, Xiao Yi furrowed his brows instantly.
He looked at the boy and slowly asked,
"Did you... get separated from your mother?"
The boy nodded, then continued writing on the paper.
With Eve's help, he wrote another line.
"Mom told me to wait for her, but I waited for so long and she never came..."
"Is that so?"
Upon reading this, Xiao Yi, for some reason, clenched his fists.
But he suppressed the emotions welling up inside him and said to the boy with a smile,
"Is that so? Mom never came, so you decided to find her on your own? That's very brave. I... don't have that kind of courage."
Xiao Yi took a deep breath and said to the boy, "Don't worry, meeting again is also a kind of fate. I will do my best to help you. So... your mom hasn't gone anywhere else, has she?"
The boy shook his head.
