Lu Beichen nodded, "Don’t stay up too late!"
Ji Niandong chuckled, "Yeah, Nian Nian is getting more and more impressive!"
"That’s because I’m getting smarter! But when you reach a certain age, you start getting dumber!" That little expression was just so cheeky.
"If you don’t eat properly, later on..."
"I’ll eat, I’ll eat, it’s delicious!" Little Bun kept shoveling rice into his mouth, interrupting Lu Beichen’s threat.
Little Bun is now bathing all by himself!
Ji Niandong was a bit surprised. When she went to his room, she specially checked on him and noticed that he seemed taller! She measured him against the wall and seriously said, "Isn’t this the mark your dad made last time? You’ve grown half a centimeter taller!"
"Only half a centimeter?" He was a bit disappointed, but blushed, staring at Ji Niandong without blinking, swallowed, and couldn’t help saying, "It would be great if Sister Tongtong were really my mom!"
Ji Niandong was taken aback, looking at his blushing little bun face, she couldn’t help but reach out and touch him. Although she felt she was too young to be a mom, since meeting this child, it seemed her maternal instincts had become quite overwhelming.
Her gentle touch made Little Bun blush even more. He had imagined countless times his mom measuring his height, coaxing him to sleep, just like his classmates said, he didn’t even mind if she scolded him, as long as he had a mom!
He suddenly pursed his lips and didn’t speak. Ji Niandong reached out and carried him onto the bed, then lay down beside him, letting him rest his head on her chest, "Do you want Sister Tongtong to read you a comic book?"
"No need, Sister Tongtong, I feel like I’m going to sleep!" Yes, her embrace felt so warm, lying inside it was blissful, so blissful it was putting him to sleep!
Ji Niandong smiled, "Then sleep!"
Little Bun nodded. When Ji Niandong thought he was about to sleep, he suddenly said, "Sister Tongtong, I really like you!"
"Yes, Sister Tongtong knows!" she replied without hesitation, then paused and asked, "But, recently everyone says An Lin might be your mom, you..."
"Oh no, that’s impossible!" Little Bun suddenly sat up and looked at her, "You’re my mom, Aunt An Lin couldn’t be!"
"Why?" The child’s decisive denial caught the adult by surprise. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
"Aunt An Lin even wants to marry An’an to me! If she were my mom, that wouldn’t be right!" He said, a bit shy, "Though, I’d never agree to a childhood betrothal they arrange!"
Ji Niandong clicked her tongue, "Is that what your dad wants?"
"Don’t know if he does!" Little Bun answered like an adult.
Ji Niandong couldn’t help but laugh, "Actually Nian Nian, Sister Tongtong thinks An’an is really cute, so adorable, especially those big eyes, absolutely adorable!"
Little Bun’s eyes turned serious, "Sister Tongtong, I’m asking you, isn’t my little gaze scary?!"
"Yes, very scary!" She was completely amused by him, hugged him in her arms, and said, "Our Nian Nian is getting shy!"
"I’m not, Sister Tongtong, how did you become as bad as Dad?!" He struggled desperately in her arms.
Ji Niandong then said, "Alright, alright, stop messing around, go to sleep, or your dad will come storming in!"
Little Bun finally settled down, snuggling closer into her embrace, contentedly starting to fall asleep!
