Where Have I Seen Her?
Since there were many people around and Lu Hang was there, they decided to bring Lu Dudu along as well.
Since arriving at the Lin family home, they hadn't taken the little one out because of various matters.
Mostly because the child was too attention-grabbing.
People at this time especially adored fair, chubby babies, and Lu Dudu was particularly popular wherever she went. When she was in a good mood and gave you a smile, it could melt your heart, making you want to give her everything.
"Aren’t you afraid someone might kidnap her? She's so noticeable!" Lin Nannan couldn’t help but poke her little cheek and scold.
With her face tickled, Lu Dudu had no idea why she was being scolded. Since she couldn’t understand, she thought smiling at her mother was always right. Despite her earlier annoyance, Lin Nannan couldn’t resist leaning in to give her a kiss. Watching the mother and daughter, who had just been at odds, now with their heads nearly touching, Lu Hang didn't know what to say.
Could they at least pay some attention to him? He was the one carrying the child, after all!
"Stop teasing her, or she’ll laugh until she gets hiccups," Lu Hang reminded his wife, hoping to prevent the child from getting uncomfortable and causing worry later.
Lin Nannan said helplessly, "Do you really think I’m the one teasing her? She’s clearly the one teasing me!"
Everything outside was new and exciting to the little one, making her exceptionally lively and cheerful. Her constant laughter was simply irresistible. Who could say no to a smiling, happy baby?
Everyone’s eyes were on her precisely because she was so lovable. As her mother, Lin Nannan felt this even more deeply.
Lu Hang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Why don’t you go shopping with Grandma and the others? I’ll follow slowly with her…"
Worried that further delays would prevent them from completing their tasks for the day, Lin Nannan agreed.
With their departure scheduled for the next day, Lin Nannan had thought today would pass peacefully. However, when Lin Shuang’s sudden shout drew her attention to Jiang Xiaomeng being bullied, her eyelids twitched, and she felt she might not be able to leave tomorrow…
She couldn't help looking back at Lu Hang, meeting his slightly narrowed eyes. They exchanged a look that only the two of them understood.
Jiang Xiaomeng, who was being bullied, looked particularly messy. Her clothes were stained with something, and she was covered in grime. Several women were relentlessly grabbing at her, not letting up. Her eyes were red, but she stubbornly held back her tears. Whether it was this defiance that angered her tormentors or something else, she looked quite pitiful.
"Nan Nan," Zhou Cuiwei called out, in case Lin Nannan hadn't seen. "Is that Jiang Xiaomeng?"
The Lin family had seen Jiang Xiaomeng during her hospital stay, though Lin Nannan had stopped them from delivering gifts to her.
As Lin Nannan’s gaze fell upon Jiang Xiaomeng, the latter seemed to sense it and suddenly looked up. Their eyes met—Lin Nannan’s calm, Jiang Xiaomeng’s startled. Her face paled, and as if remembering something, she immediately turned away, seemingly trying to hide and avoid being recognized…
"What are they doing? How can they bully a young girl like that?" Lin Grandma exclaimed angrily upon seeing the scene.
It wasn’t just because Jiang Xiaomeng had saved Lin Nannan; it was simply because she couldn’t stand to see such injustice.
In a situation like this, it would be unconscionable for Lin Nannan to do nothing. As soon as she moved, the others followed. Lu Hang, carrying the child, followed behind unhurriedly, somehow ending up walking alongside Lin Shuang.
"Strange, that woman looks so familiar. I feel like I’ve seen her somewhere before!" Lin Shuang muttered to herself, staring intently at one of the women.
Her words caught Lu Hang’s attention. He glanced at her discreetly before quickening his pace to catch up with Lin Nannan.
"What’s going on here?" Lin Nannan strode over, grabbing the arm of a woman who was about to strike Jiang Xiaomeng. She then turned her gaze to Jiang Xiaomeng’s retreating figure and asked.
