We Are Meant To Be

Chapter 130 Countless Questions

Jing Lu gave an unsatisfied look at them, but later glared at Christy intensely while she once again asked coldly, "oh, are you not adopting another child other than him?"

Her words and expressions just now were too ruthless and made Wen a bit furious, were people with poor economic conditions not worthy of raising their child? For her, the poorest people in this world were not someone lacking in material, but those with a poor attitude, such as her!

Christy held Wen's hand tightly trying to stop her from doing unwanted things, then replied to Jing's words: "You're right, President Lu, he is indeed the dear child I adopted. Now, please excuse us, and sorry fo disturbing you." Christy held Justin's little hand while speaking softly to him, "let's head home, sweetie."

She had to leave the place as soon as possible after all, or else the tension between them would grow worse.

Although Wen was still mad, she knew Christy very well and did not want to cause her any more trouble. She decided to keep her feelings to herself and left as well.

Not long later, Jing Lu's grandson Juezun Feng told her, "grandma, that little guy and I, we are good friends. You should not talk to his parents like that."

Ah, children's pure souls were enough to touch people's hearts! They saw the beauty in this world, and their minds were always so clear and bright, without any impurities.

Jing Lu didn't expect her grandson to tell her, and it wasn't very pleasant. She did realize her attitude earlier was a bit too much, but it was impossible to admit her immaturity to Christy.

Justin heard the scene and then said politely to Jing, "it's alright. I'm sure Mommy Christy and Mommy Wen won't take things personally, but please do watch your words because they might offend other people." Afterwards, he bid goodbye to his friends.

He was just a little kid, but the way he spoke wisely and rationally sure made Jing Lu feel ashamed!

"Take care, bye-bye!" Jue Zun Feng and Wei Yueyue Feng replied to him together.

Jing Lu thought if a kid could be so considerate and she couldn't, then she would feel humiliated. If she ever met Christy again, this time she would swallow her pride and would treat her nicely.

On the other hand, Wen roughly shook Christy's hand from hers and spoke angrily "that old lady has gone way too far, she has no respect for us whatsoever! What makes her think she is better than anybody else, huh?"

"There, there. Now calm down and let's head home since it's almost late. Next time let's hang out together, okay?" Christy had to comfort Wen to make her feel easier. "It's a problem between us. So, it will be better for us to avoid them from now on." Wen knew it was not Christy's fault after all.

Still, Wen protested "Why are you so stubborn? What if that old lady bullies you at work later? What will you do?" She cared for Christy so much and kept on thinking about what could happen to her friend in the future.

"Mommy Wen is right. It would be best if you looked for another job. I will spend less money, and it doesn't matter if I quit that elite kindergarten. I beg you, Mom." Justin heard this, and he begged Christy wholeheartedly.

Christy felt a bit easier, all thanks to their care and words of encouragement. She smiled and replied "Thank you for always being there for me, even if things are getting rough, what else can I do besides to go on? And one more thing, I'm working with the old analyst. Thus I won't meet President Lu so often. Don't worry."

Christy was aware that things would not be so simple and easy, but what else could she do? She knew that she should not bring trouble to herself.

And she should be the one who took responsibility for her work anyways. She would only tell them the good things and kept all the bad as a secret only she knew.

Wen replied faithfully and with loyalty, "Alright, but if you ever need anything, just let us know. As long as I'm here, I will not let you and Ryan feel insufficient and suffer!"

Christy fully believed in Wen. The reason why was every time her financial rate went down to the point she could not afford Ryan's needs, Wen always came to their rescue; that's why she felt thankful for Wen. The way Wen tried to save her life expenses for the three of them showed her a form of an irreplaceable friendship. Christy must be a hero who saved this earth in her previous life so she could have a best friend like Wen in the present.

"You're right! I feel so safe and secure whenever I'm with you!" Christy took a look at Wen in silence, but her eyes expressed lots of unspoken affection that, once spoken, would distinguish the meaning. Words could not express Christy's heartfelt gratitude towards Wen for what she did to her, and that's just how that is!

Wen was worried because Christy stared at her for so long. She shook Christy's body until the latter regained consciousness, then patted the goosebumps on her skin, and said jokingly, "my my, we are not even gay lovers, but what was that just now? So gross."

They didn't realize that Justin was there until his innocent self heard the word "gay" and got so confused, so he asked them "Mommies, what does the word 'gay' mean?"

Christy and Wen froze for a second. They couldn't figure out how this should be explained to a kid. Also, they had no choice but to explain to him, or else he would ask his teacher about this in the class tomorrow, for sure.

Christy and Wen looked at each other and looked for a way to make him understand. Finally, they got an answer "the word 'gay' means that two people of the same sex are in a relationship and they become a CP. Usually, only a pair of one man and one woman are allowed to become a CP or married, right?"

Wen explained carefully while Christy, on the other hand, felt so uneasy, she could not think of any better answer. Even after they made clear, the awkward tension between them was still there.

"But you two are of the same sex, so why do you say that you are not 'gay'?" Justin looked at them, hoping his mothers would answer his curiosity.

This time the question was not too hard for the two of them to answer him, yet they had to think carefully until suddenly Christy came up with an answer.

"Because both of us have no problems with our sexual orientation, and we're still waiting for a man to marry. But we have not found our Mr Right yet, that's why we live together, and it's more convenient to take care of you!" That was the best answer Christy could give to him.

However, her explanation immediately brought up questions about Chinese family traditions and whatever things this kid was all curious about. Also, what did 'sexual orientation' mean? By now, they ran out of ideas.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Both Christy and Wen felt like they fell into a vicious circle. The more they explained to Justin, the more he threw out questions that were trickier for them to answer.

Their minds met the dead end, so Wen had no way but to reply "Justin, listen. You are still young, and there are some things that we can't explain to you yet. Later, when you grow up and start liking a girl, you surely will understand!"

That was their 'trump card': once they couldn't find an answer, they would say the 'once you grow up' thing, which left Little Justin with no choice but "alright, then!" Not being entangled over things was also Justin's good trait.
