Xu Zixi couldn't help but burst out laughing at his words. She pinched Yuan Xiaoxu's chubby cheeks and said, "Okay, Mommy promises you that when we get home, I'll make delicious food for you."
Unlike Yuan Xiaoxu, Yuan Xiaoxuan clung tightly to Xu Zixi's arm and refused to let go. His face was full of attachment, but he said:
"Mommy, it's okay. Baby isn't angry. Daddy said that a real man should learn to be independent and not always be with Mommy. So Mommy can go do what she wants to do."
These words didn't seem like they could come from a child who was only three and a half years old. They surprised Xu Zixi and made her feel even more heart - ache for this overly precocious child.
So she let go of Yuan Xiaoxu and hugged Yuan Xiaoxuan, rubbing his cheeks.
"But what should I do? What Mommy really wants to do is to let the baby grow up happily and healthily!"
Yuan Xiaoxuan had never been so intimate with Mommy before. He blushed instantly, but he also felt extremely happy inside.
He really liked Mommy so much!
Xu Zixi let go of the children and carefully sized them up from head to toe. "Come on. I haven't seen you for a few days. Let Mommy take a good look to see if there are any changes in my two babies."
"You seem to have lost a little weight. Didn't you listen to Aunty Zhang and Aunty Li and eat well these days?"
The two children quickly replied, "No! We've eaten well! We've also exercised, run, and practiced boxing obediently in the morning!"
"Really?" Xu Zixi smiled and gestured. "You seem to have grown a little taller. That's great!"
As soon as Yan Yancheng got off the plane, he was waiting for the two children to run over and hug him. He clearly heard the two children shouting "Daddy" as they ran towards them. But after waiting for a long time, the two children completely forgot about him. They just kept coquettishly clinging to Xu Zixi without end. He couldn't help feeling jealous.
But it wasn't jealousy towards Xu Zixi, but towards the children.
Yes, he was right! How could a real man always cling to Mommy? He should rush into his father's arms first, and his mother's embrace should be his!
Lord Yan raised his hand and pretended to cough twice.
Hearing his voice, the two children seemed to suddenly remember his existence. They left Xu Zixi's side, ran over, and each hugged one of Yan Yancheng's long legs, shouting "Daddy" one after another.
"Daddy! We missed you too!"
Yan Yancheng: "Oh, really?" He really didn't see it.
"Daddy, you said you would bring gifts for the baby!" Yuan Xiaoxu tilted his little head up, blinking his bright big eyes. "The baby is really looking forward to your gifts!"
Oh, sure enough, they weren't really missing him. They were actually missing the gifts, right?
However, the two children's affectionate hugs and their words of missing still made Lord Yan show a gratified smile like an old father.
He stroked Yuan Xiaoxu on the left with his left hand and then Yuan Xiaoxuan on the right, saying, "Let's go home first. Daddy will give you the gifts when we get home."
The two children were extremely happy. They jumped up and down. One held Xu Zixi's hand, and the other held Yan Yancheng's. The family of four left the airport and headed back.
As soon as they got in the car, Yuan Xiaoxuan nestled into Yan Yancheng's arms. He wanted Yan Yancheng to hold him with both hands, but when he touched Yan Yancheng's right hand, he felt something hard.
Yuan Xiaoxuan was stunned for a moment. He rolled up his sleeve and looked inside. Instead of seeing a hand as he had imagined, he curiously asked, "Daddy, what's this?"
Yan Yancheng knew that Yuan Xiaoxuan was very interested in medicine, so he carefully explained it to Yuan Xiaoxuan sitting in his arms.
"This is called a plaster cast."
Just as he was saying that it was an auxiliary treatment measure after a bone injury, his voice was interrupted by the child's crying. Yuan Xiaoxuan stroked the plaster cast with his little hand and cried even more miserably than when he first saw Xu Zixi.
Since Daddy and Mommy left together to go to some Fengcheng to handle business, Yuan Xiaoxuan had been in a very low mood. For a while, he felt very uncomfortable. That feeling was exactly the same as when he saw Mommy take a lot of pills and lie on the ground, not waking up no matter how he called.
He really wanted to call Mommy on his watch. But then he thought that Mommy had woken up after sleeping for a while last time. He felt that he might be overthinking it, so he kept that uncomfortable feeling in his heart and didn't tell anyone.
It was not until this moment, seeing the plaster cast on Yan Yancheng's arm, that Yuan Xiaoxuan realized that the discomfort he felt at that time was because Daddy was injured.
Yuan Xiaoxuan raised his wet eyes, looked at Yan Yancheng, and asked, "Daddy, does your hand hurt? Mommy said that if you blow on it when it hurts, it won't hurt. Xuanxuan will blow on it for you."
After saying that, he pursed his little lips and blew hard on the plaster cast several times.
Yan Yancheng was extremely touched. He held back the sob in his throat and said, "Thank you, Xuanxuan. After you blew on it, Daddy really doesn't hurt anymore."
Compared with Yuan Xiaoxuan's sensitivity and sensibility, Yuan Xiaoxu, who was being held by Xu Zixi, stared wide - eyed and said in surprise:
"Wow! Daddy's hand has turned into a white ball. It's so cool! Xuxu also wants to wrap his hands like this!"
Xu Zixi couldn't help but tap on his little head and said, "It's not something to be proud of to be wrapped like this. Do you also want your two arms to hurt so much that you can't eat and can't move freely?"
As soon as he heard that he couldn't eat, Yuan Xiaoxu understood that this thing wasn't a good one. He wrinkled his little face and said, "Daddy, you're so pitiful! What can you do if you can't eat?"
Hearing Xu Zixi's stifled laughter, Yan Yancheng said, "Of course... your Mommy will feed me."
So Yuan Xiaoxu began to yearn for such a scene again. He turned around and pestered Xu Zixi. "Mommy, you have to feed the baby too! Mommy hasn't eaten with the baby for many days!"
Xu Zixi had to quickly reply, "Okay, okay, okay!"
The small car was filled with the laughter and chatter of the family of four, full of a warm and pleasant atmosphere.
Before leaving Haicheng, although the time they spent together was also very warm, there still seemed to be some distance between Yan Yancheng and Xu Zixi. Now, this invisible film had been completely torn off.
They looked more like an ordinary couple who had fallen in love and jointly had two children.
Although the two children were very young, they were actually extremely sensitive. This kind of atmosphere was something they had never experienced before. So, smelling the fragrance from Mommy and snuggling in Daddy's broad embrace, the two children closed their eyes peacefully and fell asleep sweetly in the rocking car.
Therefore, they didn't know that the car didn't return to the duplex apartment in the west of the city as usual, but headed straight for the south of the city. Finally, one and a half hours later, the car successfully reached its destination.
After the car stopped, the two children woke up from their dreams at Xu Zixi's call.
Being carried out of the car by A Wei, Yuan Xiaoxuan rubbed his eyes and subconsciously waved to Yan Yancheng. "Goodbye, Daddy."
Yuan Xiaoxu yawned and hugged Xu Zixi's neck tightly, refusing to let go. He followed his brother and said, "Goodbye, Daddy. See you next weekend."
The two children were very smart. They always remembered the agreement between Xu Zixi and Yan Yancheng to meet once a week. They thought they were going to be separated again this time. But who would have thought that when they turned around and looked behind them, they found...
Huh!!! They had actually been taken directly back to the seaside villa in the south of the city!
