On the hospital bed, the delicately-carved little boy was slowly opening his distinctly black and white eyes. His gaze was initially confused, but it soon brightened, clearly reflecting the silhouette of Luo Mengmeng.
He blinked, calling out in a babyish voice.
Although he had spent most of the past three years in a comatose sleep, it hadn’t hindered his intellectual development.
Hearing his call of "Mommy," Mengmeng’s heart instantly melted, and she quickly responded, "Yes, I’m mommy."
Xiaobao immediately curved his thin lips into a sweet smile and called out again, "Mommy, you are so beautiful."
"Xiaobao is very handsome too," Luo Mengmeng said while she lifted him off the hospital bed.
He had taken a new medication, and now he could basically be like any normal child, so he didn’t have to lie in bed all the time like before.
"You’ve worked hard, mommy." As soon as Mengmeng set him down on the ground, Xiaobao pouted his lips and planted a big kiss on her cheek.
Mengmeng squatted down smiling in front of him, touching his little head, "Not hard, not hard at all. Mommy loves holding Xiaobao."
Perhaps because he had been ill since birth, Mengmeng clearly treated him a bit better.
Gu Zhihan also stepped forward, touching Xiaobao’s head, and said with a smile, "Xiaobao, I’m daddy."
"Daddy hello..." Xiaobao immediately hugged his leg, showing him a cute smile.
That smile instantly melted Gu Zhihan’s heart, and he affectionately scooped him into his arms, "Xiaobao’s little mouth is so sweet."
A smile covered Gu Zhihan’s handsome face.
Erbao couldn’t help but feel jealous, folding his arms and poking Dabao next to him, "Old bro, now our little bro really has all of mom and dad’s love, I’m a bit annoyed."
"What’s there to be annoyed about? We are all family, we should love and care for each other, and there shouldn’t be any jealousy or strife," Dabao rationally stated.
Though he said that, Erbao distinctly saw a slight frown on his face, which clearly indicated he was jealous too!
Both were obviously feeling jealous, yet they still tried to act cool, which made Erbao roll his eyes, filled with disdain inside.
"You guys are my older brothers?"
While the two were whispering to each other, Xiaobao also noticed them, blinking his eyes curiously at them.
Dabao immediately nodded, responding in a babyish voice, "Yes, we are your brothers."
Xiaobao immediately showed a well-behaved smile.
Seeing his adorable expression, Dabao’s initially furrowed brow instantly smoothed out.
He didn’t dislike him as much as he had imagined.
"Xiaobao is good," Dabao couldn’t resist pinching his little cheek.
Dabao liked him, but Erbao was not impressed.
He even scoffed, picking faults, "Why did you only say hello to big bro and not to me? How rude!"
Before Xiaobao could speak, Dabao couldn’t help but glare at him, "Erbao, stop fooling around, don’t bully your brother."
Erbao was immediately dumbfounded.
Come on, big bro, whose side are you on?
"Big bro, don’t forget we’re on the same side."
"Sorry, I’m switching sides now," Dabao stated indifferently. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel※fire.net
Compared to Erbao, who only knew how to misbehave all day, he still found the well-behaved and cute Xiaobao more likable.
Erbao: "..." Get lost!
