Gu Babao and Avril had dinner at a restaurant, after which Gu Babao accompanied her for a walk in the hotel's garden. She could tell that Avril was not in a good mood; there was an unresolved worry etched on her face. They had been under Avril’s care for many years, and their sisterly bond had always been close, so naturally, they were more dependent on each other. If Avril wasn’t feeling well, Gu Babao couldn't feel great either.

The two of them sat down by the fountain. Gu Babao asked, "Sis, you seem troubled. Is there something bothering you"

"I'm dating someone," Avril said with a tender and sweet expression as she thought about Mo Chen. She felt like she was in a dream; although she couldn't find him or knew where he had gone, nor if anything happened to him, she still cherished her feelings for him without any resentment.

Gu Babao sincerely wished her happiness to see Avril finally dating someone.

Ever since she was utterly disappointed with men after one failed relationship, Avril hadn't dated anyone. Gu Babao asked, "Who is he"

Avril smiled slightly and said, "His name is Mo Chen."

Gu Babao was stunned for a moment before nodding stiffly. She looked up at the sky; this was her habit when she encountered something she couldn't figure out or wanted to avoid. Clearly, it was an issue that perplexed her and one she wished to evade. Not to mention whether she loved Mo Chen or not and if there were any feelings between them, even if Avril and Mo Chen were a couple, why would he come after her How could they explain this to the three kids in the future It was headache-inducing.

Avril told Gu Babao about her relationship with Mo Chen in detail. Her voice carried a touch of daydreaming as she said with a smile, "Even though we barely know each other, I truly love him. I don't understand why he disappeared so quickly; did something happen to him I'm very worried."

"Did he ask you if you wanted to be his girlfriend" Gu Babao asked uncertainly.

Avril nodded, "Yes."

"You agreed"

"Agreed!"

"He ran away the next day. Didn't he take advantage of his girlfriend then" Gu Babao asked curiously.

Avril said, "Not at all."

Gu Babao wasn’t questioning Mo Chen’s character; considering her interaction with him, Mo Chen was indeed a gentleman and didn’t seem like the type to deceive girls. Therefore, there must be some misunderstanding. Avril wasn’t the kind of person who made up stories either. The only thing Gu Babao wondered about was why Mo Chen would chase after her so relentlessly even though he already had a girlfriend in the form of his “sister.”

"Babao, what are you thinking I’m talking about my own matters here; why did you zone out" Avril scolded with a smile.

Gu Babao’s mind was racing with thoughts. She couldn’t quite figure out where things went wrong. Mo Chen didn’t seem like the irresponsible type, yet he left without notice. Seeing Avril beside her looking worried and missing him made her heart hurt slightly. She comforted her not to worry and that she would help her see the person she wanted to meet again. Avril sighed and said, "I really hope I can see him one more time and ask what’s going on. Yet, I’m also afraid something happened to him. If he doesn’t like me, all he needs to do is tell me; I won’t nag him or anything. But his sudden departure without explanation left a knot in my heart."

"Sis, don't worry, he'll be here soon," Gu Babao said.

Avril looked at Gu Babao with surprise, "How do you know"

Gu Babo looked at Avril with a faint smile and said, "Sis, you will soon meet the person you want to see."

"What did you say"

Gu Babo asked Avril to wait for a moment while she called Mo Chen on her phone. "I’m at the hotel park with my sister. Do you have something to tell my sister"

Hanging up, she stood in front of Avril and softly said, "Sis, I... I think there must be some misunderstanding between us. Let’s meet together so we can clarify things."

"What is going on You know Mo Chen, how did you two meet" Avril sensed something amiss and hurriedly asked what was happening, with an uneasy premonition in her heart.

Gu Babo didn’t know how to explain it; she simply said, "We’re not close."

Avril stared at Gu Babo doubtfully. Gu Babo explained, "It’s true that we aren’t close. Mu Mu mentioned that we were coming to Rome, so I joined them here in Rome. Later, Ye Yan came to pick us up from the airport and we stayed at his place. Only then did I learn that Mo Chen is Ye Yan's cousin."

Avril murmured, "Why would Ye Yan come to pick you up Do you know him"

Gu Babo opened her mouth but couldn’t laugh. She said, "Ask Mo Chen yourself later."

The one who caused trouble should be the one to clean it up. She didn’t want to be involved in anything.

"Baby..."

"Sis, I... " Gu Baby scratched her head and forced a smile. "You talk to him yourself."

Mu Chen didn't expect Gu Baby's call to come so quickly. To be honest, he had already planned to apologize in person to Avril with all sincerity; for the mistake he made, he would take full responsibility. He just thought there was no rush; he still had time to talk to Avril about it. He remembered Avril that morning but considered Baby too important to waste any time on other matters. He wanted to settle things with Gu Baby before Avril came back; once she falls for him, everything would be much easier.

Who knew that Gu Baby didn't have any thoughts on him and hadn't expected her to call so soon. He thought she'd at least hesitate and deliberate a while.

He guessed his baby must've just picked up the phone without even hesitating.

Mu Chen hung up with a bitter smile, admiring Gu Baby despite how much she hurt others' hearts. Now that she said there was no feeling for him, it was clearly lying; there had to be some kind of feeling, but it wasn't deep at all. She wanted to give the child a home and thought accepting him would lead her to love him. But as soon as she found out about his misunderstanding with Avril, she immediately called him to make them talk face-to-face.

She had no selfish motives; she judged by the matter at hand rather than the person involved. If he were in such a situation, he would've long dismembered him. From Gu Baby’s call, he could tell how serious and earnest she was being.

When Avril saw Mu Chen, she was very surprised and ran over to him happily, hugging him tightly. Mu Chen panicked and tried to push her away, but Avril held on even tighter.

Gu Baby watched silently from a distance.
