"Are you really that happy eating McDonald's?" Ruolan couldn't help but ask.

Mengmeng shook her head and explained seriously, "No, it was eating McDonald's with Mom and Aunt Yuan'er. Mengmeng was very happy."

"These little mouths are as sweet as honey." Ruolan couldn't help but pinch Mengmeng's chubby cheeks.

This kind of happy life should have continued, but because of Tian Tian's appearance, this happiness has become a luxury.

For a fleeting moment, Tian Tian actually felt quite regretful—regretful for going to the cemetery that day, regretful for meeting Tian Tian. Perhaps not seeing her left a lingering sense of guilt, but her life wouldn't become a mess.

This thought made Ruolan believe that she was hateful, and the resentment and love in her heart were making her almost become someone else.

"Mom, why are you suddenly unhappy?" Mengmeng noticed the change in Ruolan's expression and asked with concern.

Upon hearing this, Nan Yuan'er quickly asked, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Ruolan quickly composed herself and smiled.

She felt happy while laughing, but to outsiders, her smile was full of forced sadness.

Does Mom not like hamburgers?

It seems like adults don't really like this. Maybe she should get a different breakfast?

Mengmeng thought for a moment, then hesitated before saying, "Mom, Mengmeng doesn't necessarily have to eat McDonald's for breakfast. We can go to another place and eat what you like!"

For a moment, Ruolan was moved.

She stroked Mengmeng's little hand, saying, "What Mengmeng loves to eat, Mommy loves to eat too."

"But..." Mengmeng was a little conflicted. She felt that Ruolan was just trying to soothe her emotions.

Ruolan felt both relieved and helpless. She explained earnestly, "Mom was in a bad mood for a moment because I was thinking about what we did to you the other day. I felt that you had been wronged."

Just when things seemed to be turning around, they reverted to their old ways.

In truth, half of Ruolan's feelings were dissatisfaction with them, and the other half were worry that she would soon face the same problem.

If that really happens, Mengmeng will be all alone in this family again. What if she feels that the Gu family is not the place for her to live and leaves? What will they do then?

Ruolan couldn't sleep soundly all night because of her worries.

Mengmeng looked at Ruolan, her feelings becoming complicated.

It turns out that Mom has always felt guilty towards her!

But she already felt very happy. Coming to the Gu family, being loved by everyone, and being treated like their own child, she was truly content.

"Mom, Mengmeng has never blamed you, and will never blame you." Mengmeng lowered her head and kissed the hand that Ruolan was holding.

Feeling the warm touch, Ruolan looked down, raised her hand, and placed the back of Mengmeng's hand to her lips, "No matter what happens in the future, you will always be Mommy's precious daughter."

Seeing that the two women were thinking of each other, Nan Yuan'er was moved by their deep mother-daughter bond. She secretly touched the corner of her eye and sniffled.

Her sobbing echoed inside the car, causing Tian Tian and Ruolan to turn around and look.

"Aunt Yuan'er?" Mengmeng looked at Nan Yuan'er, whose eyes were red, with a puzzled expression.

Ruolan, who was feeling down, had just started to recover, so why is Aunt Yuan'er also in a bad mood?

Ruolan came in anxiously, "Yuan'er, did you and Jing Si have a fight last night?"

Nan Yuan'er quickly waved her hand, "No, I was moved by your affection. Sister-in-law, I also want to have a child like Mengmeng, just like you."

Upon hearing this, Ruolan smiled and looked at her slightly protruding belly, "Don't worry, the baby in your belly that hasn't been born yet will definitely look like Mengmeng."

After all, under the influence of such a loving environment, the child in her womb will surely be moved.

It's a pity that Sweetie can't be like Mengmeng.

She sighed involuntarily, then thought of Mengmeng who had been worried about her, and quickly explained, "Mommy is just tired from the car ride."

The words had barely left his mouth when the car came to a smooth stop. Old Zhang in the front turned around and said to the back seat, "Madam, we've arrived."

McDonald's is right next to the car.

Nan Yuan'er, on the right, opened the car door first and got out. She stood to the side, reaching out to help Mengmeng get out of the car.

"Aunt Yuan'er, Mengmeng can do it." Mengmeng refused her help.

She was worried that if Aunt Yuan'er helped her get off the car, she might pull on her and hurt the baby in her womb.

Nan Yuan'er stood to the side, watching intently as Mengmeng got out of the car. Only when Mengmeng stood safely beside her did her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally calm down.

Mengmeng, holding Ruolan's hand in one hand and Nan Yuan'er's hand in the other, happily walked towards McDonald's.

It had been several weeks since I last ate at McDonald's. As we entered the McDonald's, Mengmeng's steps became lighter.

"Mengmeng, order whatever you want to eat. Mom will finish it for you if you can't finish it." Ruolan chose a seat by the window and scanned the QR code next to her with her phone.

Perhaps because it was morning, many people chose to have breakfast at McDonald's. There was a long queue at the ordering area, and it was hard to know how long you would have to wait.

Taking the phone from Ruolan, Mengmeng scrolled through the screen, looking at the dazzling array of food, feeling conflicted.

She wanted to try everything, but she knew that if she ordered too much and couldn't finish it, Ruolan would eat it all. But Ruolan must also have things she liked and things she didn't.

"Have you made your choice?" Ruolan asked.

Mengmeng shook her head. "Not yet."

"Is there nothing you want to eat?"

"Mom, there are too many. Mengmeng doesn't know which one to choose."

Staring at the phone screen, her cute little mouth was pouting high.

Upon hearing her words, Ruolan immediately turned her gaze to the phone screen in her hand.

McDonald's breakfast selection isn't very extensive, and even if the three of them ordered everything, they would still be able to finish all the food.

Ruolan reached out and took the phone from her. "Then can Mom help you choose?"

Mengmeng thought for a moment and nodded.

If she doesn't make a good choice, staring at her phone all the time will only waste her time.

Ruolan touched it with her hand, and it was done in no time.

"There are quite a lot of people right now, so we might have to wait a while," Nan Yuan'er said, looking at the busy shop assistants at the order counter.

Mengmeng looked around; at such a young age, everything seemed new and interesting to her.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on the back of a man.

This looks familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before?

Mengmeng thought carefully, then patted her forehead and remembered.

"Why are you suddenly taking pictures of yourself?" Nan Yuan'er quickly reached out to grab Mengmeng's hand.

"Hehe, did Mengmeng scare Aunt Yuan'er?" Mengmeng laughed awkwardly.
