Not far away, Allen looked at the expressionless Leon and couldn’t guess what he was thinking. It should be said that he had never been able to see through him since he met him. However, this was his best partner, so he asked the question he was most concerned about. “Leon, will you leave with your mother? ”

After a while, Leon gritted his teeth and said, “She didn’t want me when I couldn’t support myself. Now that I can live independently, why did she come back?”

Although Allen was reluctant to see his partner leave, he knew that Vivian would definitely give Leon a good living environment when he saw how she dressed like a rich person. At least he wouldn’t have to think about what to do for his next meal every day.

No one knew better than him how difficult it was for Leon. “Leon, since your mother is willing to come back, it means that she still cares about you.”

At this moment, Vivian walked towards the two of them. She gave a kind smile to the red-haired, blue-eyed boy beside Leon. “You must be a good friend of our Leon. What’s your name? ”

“Hello, Auntie, my name is Allan.” It was Allan’s first time seeing such a beautiful and elegant woman, and he was a little nervous as he held the corner of his clothes.

In front of Leon’s friends, Vivian naturally wanted to perform well. “Hello, Allen. It’s already early in the morning. Your family must be waiting anxiously. Auntie will send you home.”

Allen’s father had died in a mine accident, and his mother had often worked overtime to earn more for the family.

Allen didn’t want his mother to be too tired, so he worked at the supper stall with Leon at night. “It’s okay, Auntie. I often work until this time before coming home. I’ll go back first, you guys chat.”

Knowing his best friend’s dilemma, Allan took the initiative to go home, hoping Vivian could persuade Leon to go to S City.

After Allen left, Leon walked back to his residence without a word. Vivian quickly followed him, planning to sit down and have a good talk with him.

Andy and the rest followed behind him silently, still digesting the news that their young and beautiful boss already had a son this old!

After walking for about ten minutes, they saw a simple shack at the end of a small path. It was so simple that it was just a few wooden sticks holding up a waterproof canvas.

When she got closer, Vivian found several holes of different sizes on the canvas. It was fine in the summer, but she could not believe how he had to live in this place in the winter.

Tears flowed out of Vivian’s eyes. No matter how miserable the description in the book was, it was not as shocking as seeing it in real life.

Vivian was not married in her previous life but had always hoped to have a child. So when she transmigrated into the book, she really wanted to take good care of poor Leon, who had a miserable childhood.

Leon just wanted to let Vivian see his most unbearable scene so she would stay away from him. He didn’t want her to abandon him after she realized that he was not good!

“Did you see that? This is where I live. Even pigs and dogs live better than me. A person like me only deserves to stay in such places.”

Vivian covered her mouth and cried silently. After a while, she choked and said, “Don’t talk nonsense. You deserve the best.”

Looking at the woman who was crying in front of him, Leon wanted to go up and wipe her tears away. He wanted to tell her that he was used to living here. At least he had a place to shelter himself from the wind and rain. But when he thought about how she had abandoned him for so many years, he hardened his heart and turned his head away.

But then he was pulled into a warm embrace. It was soft and fragrant, just like the embrace in his childhood memories.

Leon stopped trying to break free. Thinking that it must not have been easy for her to come back, just let her hold him for half a minute. Once the time was up, he would shake her off.

Vivian hugged him tightly for a minute before releasing her arms. She looked into his eyes and said thoughtfully, “Leon, I’m sorry. I know you can’t forgive me now. It’s okay. Give Mom a chance. Mom will never leave you alone again. Do you think I’m doing well?”

Leon looked at the woman who looked similar to him and heard such a promise. His heart shook violently. The promise of never being left behind again was too beautiful.

After all, he was only a 14-year-old boy. How could he not yearn for maternal love? But what was more terrifying than not having it was having it once just to lose it!

Looking at Vivian’s sincere eyes, he decided to test her again. If she could pass, he would give her a chance.

Leon said in a vicious tone, “I’m a very bad child! I’ll get into fights, and you’ll be invited to school to listen to the teachers’ scolding again and again. I’m not good at my studies, you’ll definitely be the most embarrassed at every parent-teacher meeting! I’m not worthy of anyone’s love!”
