She reached out to hug the child, and a smile couldn’t help but curl up at the corners of her mouth.

It was wonderful, she was back by her child’s side, and from now on, they would never have to be apart again.

That night, Lin Xinlan had a good sleep.

The long-tight nerves finally relaxed.

The next day, early in the morning.

When she woke up, Xiaocong was already awake.

He always went to bed early and got up early, maintaining a regular schedule.

Mother and son had a laugh and cuddled in bed before they got up to wash and brush up.

This was a new environment, not their old home.

Xiaocong was unfamiliar with everything here, so Lin Xinlan took care of him throughout the washing-up process, but he insisted on putting on his clothes by himself.

When she offered to dress him, he shook his head and insisted on doing it himself, and Lin Xinlan did not press the issue.

Watching Xiaocong clumsily put on his new clothes, even though he put them on incorrectly a few times and never asked for her help, Lin Xinlan felt a twinge in her heart.

Yesterday, the caregiver said she had raised the child too well-behaved, and it seemed to be true.

But she really did not know what she had done to make Xiaocong so understanding, insisting on doing everything he could do by himself.

A thought suddenly crossed her mind.

Could it be that he knew he was blind and did not want to be a burden on others, so he was so well-behaved, determined to do everything by himself?

But his face was so young and innocent, his laughter so pure, his thoughts so simple; how could he have such mature thoughts?

She must have been mistaken; her child was just too well-behaved, his thoughts could not be what she imagined.

But what if they were?

Lin Xinlan’s heart ached!

If they were as she thought, Xiaocong was not as carefree and innocent as he appeared.

Did he really care that he couldn’t see?

Because he couldn’t see, did he feel inferior, was his self-esteem badly hurt?

Could it be that his young soul had been suffering from pain she was unaware of?

Lin Xinlan dared not think further; the more she thought, the more distressed she felt, her heart aching fiercely.

She would rather be blind herself than have him suffer pain at such a young age.

She hurriedly stepped forward to grab the clothes, speaking in as gentle a voice as possible, "Xiaocong, can Mommy dress you?"

Xiaocong looked up, biting his lip, and said hesitantly, "Mommy, I can dress myself."

Lin Xinlan’s eyes instantly reddened.

Indeed, just as she had thought, he did not want to be a burden to her and insisted on dressing himself.

Embracing his body in her arms, she smiled gently, "But Mommy really wants to dress you. We’ve been apart for so long, and now you’re with Mommy again.

Mommy is so happy and wants to do everything for you.

Good boy, let Mommy dress you. For now, Mommy will take care of you, and when Mommy gets old, you can take care of Mommy. "

Xiaocong eagerly nodded, his little head bobbing vigorously, "Mommy, when you’re old, I will definitely take care of you!"

"So now let Mommy take care of you, and when Mommy gets old, you’ll take care of Mommy, deal?"

"Deal!" he replied cheerfully.

Lin Xinlan’s words gave him a great deal of confidence.

Mommy said she would let him take care of her when she was old, which at least meant that he was a useful person.

Just because of her words, Xiaocong was happy for a long time, and naturally, Lin Xinlan had no idea why he was so happy.
