Rebirth on the Doors to the Civil Affairs Bureau

“Where’s that person?” Ren Xinxin looked around but didn’t see anyone looking at her.

“They already left.”

“Oh.” Ren Xinxin couldn’t do anything else but take the cake and return to her seat.

Little Bell had just finished her cake when she saw her mom bring her another. She immediately grabbed a small spoon and ate with gusto, her cheeks looking like a hamster.

Ren Xinxin was still thinking about the mystery person that sent the cake. Their table was on a corner and was relatively secluded. Why would anyone go so far as to buy them another cake, but not come forward and introduce themselves?

She thought for a long time, but Xinxin couldn’t think of an answer so she gave up. It seems that the other party just liked children.

After a while, Ren Xinxin helped wiped Little Bell’s mouth and told her: “We’ll be going to a concert later, about an excellent pianist. If you like it, Mom will send you to learn piano.”

“What if I don’t like it?”

“Then it doesn’t matter. But when we’re at the concert, we can’t leave early and you can’t make any noise. If you get bored, you can just lie down on Mom and sleep.” Ren Xinxin earnestly told her daughter.

“This Little Bell understands.” The little girl nodded her head.

As they were about to sit down, Lingdang suddenly needed to go to the bathroom. They already entered the venue a little later, so the seats were mostly filled. Ren Xinxin held her daughter’s hand and slowly moved through the row as she apologized to an audience member who had already sat down.

Afterward, Ren Xinxin finally placed her daughter to her seat before sitting down on the chair next to Little Bell’s. Soon, the concert started. Ren Xinxin had liked classical music ever since she was young. She had also studied piano for a while in her childhood. But because her talents were limited, it just became a hobby. Every once in a while, she would go buy tickets if there was a particularly good concert. This time, she came with the intention of seeing if her daughter had any interest in music.

It’s just that…half an hour in, Little Bell fell asleep. Ren Xinxin shook her head with a smile. Looking at her daughter sleeping so peacefully, she didn’t wake her and instead turned to enjoy the concert.

When the concert finally ended, Xinxin enthusiastically applauded before realizing that her daughter wasn’t leaning on her anymore, but on the man sitting on Bell’s other side. The man arm had saliva stains and teeth markings, ruining his high-class suit.

“I’m so sorry sir!” Ren Xinxin hurriedly picked up her daughter.

The man turned to look at Xinxin and said: “Let’s go out first.”

Oh my…so perfect…Ren Xinxin found that she couldn’t think of any words to describe this face. As if God himself sculpted this masterpiece, concentrating mankind’s best genes on this person. Even his cold eyes gave him a sort of mysterious aura.

“We have to go out, it’s over.” The man saw that Xinxin wasn’t moving, so he reiterated this.

“Oh…” Ren Xinxin finally snapped out of her daze. With a red face, she hugged Little Bell, bowing down as she panicked. Really she was such a disgrace, getting dazed over a man’s looks.

“I’m very sorry about your suit, please let me pay for the dry cleaning.” Ren Xinxin apologized again.

“It’s alright.” The man took off his suit, revealing a white shirt inside. They were standing so close to each other…
