At two o'clock in the morning, the Lujiazui office buildings were still brightly lit.
I was holding the key to the river view apartment I had just bought with a three million bonus, and I ran into a soaked delivery boy at the elevator entrance.
Rain dripped down her bangs into her eyes, but that face made my heart stop—it was her ex-girlfriend who had disappeared for three years.
"Mr. Chen, your takeaway." Her hands were shaking as she handed over the lunch box.
The moment the elevator suddenly broke down, the sound of a child coughing could be heard in the darkness.
She rummaged for the medicine bottle in a panic: "Don't be afraid, baby, mommy is here."
I grabbed her wrist: "Whose child is it?"
The dim light of the mobile phone screen illuminated her tearful smile:
"Your son has had a high fever for three days."
The detailed description is great
