Chapter 641: Chapter 638 Children (4)
Xia Siyu was also very curious, she had always wanted to touch the child’s little cheeks, and even wiped her hands with a wet cloth before poking them.
However, as soon as she poked, the little one, who was asleep, seemed to feel something, pursed his tiny mouth, and burst into tears with a wail.
Xia Siyu stared at her own finger helplessly, knowing it was her finger that had caused the trouble; she turned her head and looked at Bo Yan for help, “What should I do? I didn’t mean it!”
She felt like crying too!
Would the baby’s mother come and beat her up?
“Oh, baby, baby, don’t cry, don’t cry.” Bo Yan carefully patted the little infant’s body with his finger, gently shaking the body, afraid too much movement could hurt the baby.
Believe it or not, the child was indeed soothed by his soft and deep voice, the crying gradually subsiding until it stopped. Gazing with his eyes wide like black grapes, he watched Bo Yan without blinking.
“Come, the child is awake, take a look.” Bo Yan presented the baby to Xia Siyu like showing off a treasured find. Initially, Xia Siyu was a bit scared, but eventually, the temptation to play with the child was too strong, and she also leaned in.
The child’s eyes were black and big and round. Initially, he was staring at Bo Yan, but when Xia Siyu came closer, he followed her gaze.
The little guy, who wasn’t crying or fussing, was like an angel. This child was almost three months old and had started to suck on his fingers. While he looked at Bo Yan and Xia Siyu, he stuffed his chubby little paws into his mouth, munching joyfully as if his paws were some rare delicacy.
Generally, when women interact with babies, they automatically secrete estrogen, also colloquially known as “overwhelming motherly love.”
Especially this baby girl who, after careful selection, was particularly cute. She had a chubby bun-like face, soft and fragrant little body, eyes as big as black grapes, and her tiny paws were pink and tender. Xia Siyu moved a bit closer, made her laugh, and the little one chuckled merrily.
Watching her, Xia Siyu’s heart bloomed with joy, and her expression brightened up, “She’s so cute!”
“You hold her,” Bo Yan teased her, “try holding her.”
“I dare not.” As tough as Xia Siyu was, there were times when even she dared not. She was really afraid of being too rough — what if she hurt the child? What if she accidentally didn’t hold her steady and caused the baby to fall?
Bo Yan was still smiling, “You’re going to have to hold her for the shooting, you have to dare even if you don’t. Come on, try it, the baby is very well-behaved and cute; she won’t fuss with you.”
“I…” For the sake of the shoot, Xia Siyu gritted her teeth and went for it. The baby’s mother also told her, “Remember, just support the baby’s buttocks and head with your hands.”
Usually supporting the buttocks and head meant that the arms would also cradle the baby’s back and legs, allowing the baby to feel more comfortable.
Xia Siyu carefully took the child from Bo Yan’s hands as if she had been struck by a freeze spell, not daring to move an inch.
Although she was stiff and didn’t dare to move, she still held the baby steadily.
“Look, look, the baby is smiling,” Bo Yan teased the child a bit, and the little one laughed very happily.
The baby’s mother even said, “Mr. Bo is so fond of children, he will definitely be a good father in the future.”
After she said this, Bo Yan and Xia Siyu exchanged a look, with a rare warmth in their eyes, and then were both drawn back to the little one’s laughter as they bent down together to play with the baby.
