Qi Min's takeout was ordered, and she went back to her room and waited for Anton to come.

In order to prevent Anton from turning his head and leaving as soon as he saw her, Qi Min specially hid the door in the bathroom. When the time comes, Anton will definitely push the door in when he sees that he should not knock on the door. And when he walked inside, Qi Min was able to come out of the bathroom and latch the door first. In this way, even if Anton saw that she was leaving, he did not have time to reopen the door.

Of course, this method is not very safe. The two of them fought second, and if Anton called the police, it would be troublesome. The U.S. police are notoriously brutal and presumption of guilt, and Legally Qi Min is a foreigner, while Anton is an American citizen, which gives him an advantage.

Therefore, Qi Min carefully thought about how to talk to Anton when the time came.

She thought very clearly, although Mimi fell from the fourth floor because of her negligence before, but the child couldn't figure out what responsibility was not responsible, no matter what, for Mimi herself, Qi Min was her mother. And in order to prevent Mimi from having an inferiority complex, Qi Min and Anton claimed that Mimi was biological, both internally and externally, and how could Mimi hate his biological mother as a child? In order not to leave a shadow in Mimi's heart, even if Anton hates Qi Min no matter how much he hates her, he can't smear her in front of the child, so it will still be useful to play the family card on this. What's more, it should be recognized that children need mothers. In the lower class of the United States, there are many fatherless children, but those without mothers are basically orphans unless their mothers die early.

Qi Min thought very well, she didn't mention the matter of breaking up or not breaking up, she only said that she wanted to see Mimi, and Mimi should miss her too. In this way, he also occupies the "moral high ground", no matter what mistakes Qi Min makes, she and Mimi are always in a mother-daughter relationship, no matter how much Anton wants to hinder him, he is a father who is not recognized by the law. And in case she provoked Qi Min, she directly took the legal route to take Mimi away from him and then bring her back to China, and Anton had no way at all.

Although Qi Min didn't lose her conscience so much, she had to make Anton realize that even if she was the one at fault, she still had a way to deal with him—if he really didn't cooperate at all.

——

Less than thirty minutes later, there was a knock at the door. Anton's familiar voice came through the crack in the door: "Is there anyone?" Mr. Zhang's takeaway arrived. ”

Qi Min didn't respond. Sure enough, the door was pushed open from the outside, and the footsteps entered the room, and Anton asked as he walked inside, "Mr. Zhang, are you inside?" ”

Qi Min heard that he had already walked to the bedroom inside, and immediately quietly came out of the bathroom and gently bolted the door.

Anton turned around when he heard the sound of the bolt door, and his eyes immediately widened when he saw Qi Min: "It's you?!" ”

"Hi...... I'm here on a business trip, so I'll be looking for you by the way. Qi Min explained with some embarrassment.

Anton was a little different from what she remembered, he had long hair and a short ponytail behind the delivery man's helmet he was wearing, which was clearer and cleaner than the half-length curly hairstyle he had before. In addition, he seems to be thinner than before, and there is a slight accumulation of cyan under those big brown eyes, which should not be good compared to this time.

And he looked at Qi Min's eyes, as if he was going to fight with her in the next second.

"I have nothing to say to you." Anton walked up to her, "Get out of the way, I'm going out." ”

"Don't want the money for takeout?" Qi Min made a joke, and then immediately realized that this joke was not appropriate. The more financially Anton is tightened, the more mean such words become.

She immediately remedied, "And even if you don't want to see me, Mimi always wants to see her mother, right?" ”

"You're embarrassed to say it." Anton looked at her indifferently, "Are you worthy?" ”

"Worthy of it or not, at least Mimi still agrees that I'm her mother, right?" Qi Min followed again, "And that's the case legally." ”

This sentence silenced Anton. He knew that legally only Qi Min was Mimi's parent, and it was obvious that Mimi also missed her mother. Even if Anton thinks that Qi Min caused Mimi to fall from the fourth floor, the little girl will only remember that she accidentally fell, and she will not think at all that there is also the responsibility of her mother's improper care.

"I want to ...... Do you want me to meet Mimi? Qi Min took the opportunity to say, "I can take her back to China for treatment, the cost of treatment in China is low, and the medical insurance is much cheaper than in the United States." How is Mimi's leg, is she in a wheelchair now? ”

Anton did not immediately answer her question. He stared at Qi Min's eyes for about two minutes before turning his gaze and saying, "I took Mimi to Canada for surgery...... Not entirely good, but at least not in a wheelchair. ”

Canada adopts universal free medical care, and many Americans living near the U.S.-Canada border go to Canada every year for medical treatment. But the city is so far away from Canada, and there are a lot of expenses for accommodation and daily care, even if the medical care itself is free, Anton probably spent a lot of money to take Mimi there.

"How much did you borrow?" Qi Min asked.

"You don't have to worry about it." Anton said indifferently.

"Why don't you need it?" Qi Min said, "I should pay for Mimi's leg." You say, how much? ”

However, Anton raised his voice and said resentfully: "You can also think of that little money." ”

Qi Min was a little confused by his sudden attack, and Anton probably saw that she didn't react, but became even more angry: "You haven't seen Mimi in person for more than half a year, is it useful to tell me about the money now?" ”

"You're insane, didn't you let me Skype to see Mimi?" Qi Min scolded back.

"What's the use of you Skype all day?" Anton was also angry, "You don't even want to come back, you might as well pay to support the children in the slums of Africa." ”

Qi Min wanted to say that she had just found a teaching position, and she didn't have time to fly around, and she didn't allow it financially. If she can't successfully pass the assessment in the first year, and then rush Anton's salary, will all three of them drink the northwest wind?

But things in terms of income can't be said casually, Qi Min just said: "Come back if I want to come back?" Doesn't it cost money to get a plane ticket? ”

"Yo, aren't you rich!" Anton said mockingly.

"There's your uncle's money!" Qi Min said, "If I treat Mimi's leg, I will have to borrow even if I borrow money." But why should I spend that money on a plane ticket just to get a trip? ”

Anton was speechless when she said this.

In fact, even if Mimi fell from the building before, she and Anton still had a chance to return to China with Qi Min. But Anton's unilateral breakup is equivalent to rejecting this opportunity. For this reason, he has to spend a lot of money to take Mimi to Canada for treatment, which is also unjust money to some extent.

But Anton still sneered: "Then I should thank you for not coming back for a year when you left so fast, to save money for Mimi's medical expenses?" ”

"Why are you ......" Qi Min felt that she couldn't talk to Anton, "Why can't I understand?" - Forget it, I didn't mention it before, but now you can't let me meet with Mimi? ”
