“Not used to being in China for the first time?”
After the meeting, Helian Niancheng chased the curious glances out. He carried Gu Xiaobao into his office and placed him on the sofa.
“Mm~~ Carry!”
Gu Xiaobao started to act cutely the moment he was put down, running straight at Helian Niancheng.
Probably because of the unfamiliar environment, Gu Xiaobao, who disliked his father started sticking to him.
Helian Niancheng frowned slightly but did not stop Gu Xiaobao and carried him up with a single arm.
He used the office phone on the table and called his secretary. “Secretary Lin, get someone to buy some snacks which kids like.”
“I understand, Boss.”
Helian Niancheng turned and looked at Gu Xiaobao. Those soft cheeks were a shadow of his mother’s.
Helian Niancheng, who originally wanted to reprimand him, couldn’t in the end. “Did you miss your mother a lot?”
Gu Xiaobao snuggled into Helian Niancheng’s embrace and nodded hard. His fair face revealed a trace of misery as he pouted.
“I miss her too.”
Helian Niancheng said in a low voice, “Your mother’s busy recently. She will come back to see you in a while. If you’re not used to it, you can stay with me for the time.”
“Then Dad, can you bring me to the amusement park?”
Gu Xiaobao raised his head and looked at him.
Helian Niancheng frowned slightly. “How old are you already, and you still like that?”
“Xiaobao is only turning three this year!”
Gu Xiaobao was dissatisfied. “It’s normal for children to like going to the amusement park.”
After thinking for a bit, Helian Niancheng eventually agreed. “I will accompany you when I have the time.”
“Okay!”
Gu Xiaobao agreed obediently.
He got out of the embrace. Removing his shoes, he hopped around on the sofa.
Seeing that he was happy to play by himself, Helian Niancheng went back to his desk and busied himself with his work.
Not too long later, the secretary brought in a vast array of snacks. Since he didn’t know what this young master liked, he simply picked a few suitable ones.
Gu Xiaobao didn’t fancy snacks, but there wasn’t much to do to burn time. His parents didn’t allow him to play with cell phones as well.
He was too young, so it was better for him not to contact these things because of the radiation.
Gu Xiaobao broke a small piece of chocolate. The bar of chocolate was bigger than his entire face. After spending so much effort, he only managed to nibble at the corner, and the edges of his mouth became dirty.
Gu Xiaobao didn’t mind. As he was nibbling happily, he suddenly recalled something and asked cheerfully, “Dad, when are you and mom going to give me a younger sister?”
Helian Niancheng placed the pen down as his lips curled up. “That’s a great idea, son. I will try to get your mom to give you a younger sister soon.”
“It’s a promise then. My sister will play with me, so she will keep me company even when the two of you are not at home.”
The ‘not at home’ which his son mentioned caused a strange feeling to stir within Helian Niancheng. “Don’t the sisters and brothers at the royal family keep you company?”
“No, Xiaobao wants a younger sister. A younger sister from Dad and Mom.”
Gu Xiaobao said it straightforwardly.
At this time, a slender beauty walked into the office.
Gu Xiaobao stared at her.
She brought documents in as she looked at Helian Niancheng unblinkingly. After putting down the documents, her voice seemed to be carefully intonated as she spoke gently, “Boss, this is the report for the five companies for the last quarter. Please have a look.”
