Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“We barely get to rest a few days a year, and Xiao Xiao can’t be at home…” After Yuan Ming left with Yuan Xiao, Shen Hai complained unhappily, “I wonder what Yuan Ming is thinking. Who picks up other people’s children during the New Year? ‘
“Alright, you don’t say that in front of others.” Feng Mei smiled and looked at Shen Hai to comfort him. “The New Year is in less than a week. Xiao Xiao won’t be staying in the Yuan Family for long.”
“Then why didn’t you ask Xiao Wei to come back and take a look just now?” Shen Hai shook his head and sighed. “Forget it. It’s fine if she doesn’t come back. That child hasn’t called back since we separated.”
At the mention of Yuan Wei, Shen Hai and Feng Mei still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, they had watched Yuan Wei grow up and had put in a lot of effort. However, now that the child had completely cut ties with them, it would be a lie to say that the Shen couple was not disappointed.
“Comparing to the two children, Xiao Xiao is more sensible.” Feng Mei felt that although Xiao Xiao looked strong, she was very meticulous and kind. Yuan Wei was usually addicted to silence, but she had a lot on her mind and thought about many questions.
“Of course. Xiao Xiao is the most sensible and smart child I’ve ever seen.” Shen Hai felt proud at the mention of his daughter. Many people who came to the restaurant to eat had said that Yuan Xiao was very famous in school. In everyone’s eyes, Yuan Xiao had long become a role model and pride. Shen Hai also felt proud.
At this moment, Yuan Xiao had already followed Yuan Ming to the Yuan Family. As soon as she entered the hall, Yuan Xiao saw Sun Li walking towards her excitedly.
“Mom, be careful!” Yuan Xiao was afraid that Sun Li would fall, so she hurriedly went forward to support her.
“Xiao Xiao, Mom has been looking forward to your return.” Sun Li looked at Yuan Xiao and held her hand tightly, as if she was afraid that she would disappear.
“Sit down and talk. Don’t tire yourself out.”
Yuan Ming looked at Yuan Xiao, who was supporting Sun Li, and finally smiled. “You two can chat first. I’ll get the people from the restaurant to prepare dinner in advance and send some over early.”
Sun Li ignored Yuan Ming and pulled Yuan Xiao to sit on the sofa. She asked about Yuan Xiao’s daily life and was relieved to hear that everything was going smoothly.
“I don’t know why, but I keep thinking about what happened to you when you were young. When you were young, I always hoped that you would grow up quickly, but if I knew that such a thing would happen, it would be better if time passed slower…”
Sun Li’s voice was a little choked up. Because of her pregnancy, she had become a lot more prone to crying.
“Mom, you still have to grow up with Little Brother. I’ll always be with you.” Looking at Sun Li, Yuan Xiao was a little touched. In fact, the Yuan couple had treated her well in both her previous life and this life. If she had not courted death in her previous life, she would not have ended up like this.
“Yes, when your younger brother is born in the future, you must teach him well. I heard from your father that you’ve always been the number one in the school. With you around, your younger brother’s results will definitely not be bad.”
Sun Li could not wait for Yuan Xiao to be close to the child in her stomach. She could tell that Yuan Wei was not looking forward to this child, but Yuan Xiao was different. She was kind and simple-minded and was very supportive of her giving birth to a second child.
“Little Brother will definitely be very smart. Mom, don’t worry.��
The mother and daughter seemed to have endless things to talk about. When Yuan Wei arrived home, Sun Li and Yuan Xiao were still sitting on the sofa in the living room.
“Mom, Jiang Yan and Auntie are here.” As soon as Yuan Wei entered the house, she saw Yuan Xiao sitting on the sofa. “Why are you here?”
Yuan Wei’s tone was obviously unfriendly. Sun Li frowned slightly and saw Jiang Yan and his mother, Zheng Hui, behind Yuan Wei.
“I asked Old Yuan to bring Xiao Xiao home to stay for a few days. Why didn’t you inform me in advance that Sister Zheng was coming, so that I could prepare in advance?”
Zheng Hui saw Yuan Xiao beside Sun Li and felt that this child was much prettier than before.
“There’s no need to be so polite between our families.”
Zheng Hui walked to Yuan Xiao’s side and warmly held her hand. She smiled and said, “Xiao Xiao, it’s been a long time since you and Auntie last met. How did you become so beautiful? Let Auntie take a good look.”
Yuan Xiao stood up politely and smiled at Zheng Hui. Previously, she looked down on her the most.
“Auntie, you’ve changed a lot. You seem to have become much younger.” Yuan Xiao knew Zheng Hui’s vain personality and praised her generously.
“This child’s mouth is much sweeter than before.” Zheng Hui felt that Yuan Xiao had changed a lot. Not only in terms of appearance, but even her personality was much more stable than before..
