Three-and-a-half-year-old little girl, also known as Ann, lived a life of scarcity and hardship in an orphanage, where even a single steamed bun could lead to beatings and scoldings from the headma...
Little one’s innocent question left Qin Haochen at a loss for words. He could almost picture the adorable, puzzled, and curious expression on her face off-camera.
Qin Haochen couldn’t help but laugh, the smile in his deep eyes was unmistakable, and his lips curled up in a tender and helpless grin. With both gentleness and patience, he explained, "Ann wasn’t born yet, so she didn’t attend Mommy and Daddy’s wedding."
"Not born yet?" Qin Sui’an’s little face was filled with confusion, her big round eyes radiating pure curiosity. She had another question, "Why wasn’t Ann born yet?"
"Because..." Qin Haochen thought that all the problems the corporation had faced combined were not as difficult as this question from little one.
He shook his head with a wry smile, "Ann, Daddy can’t answer your question."
"Ah~~~" Qin Sui’an was very disappointed. She then asked, "If Daddy can’t answer, who can? Ann will ask someone who can answer!"
Qin Haochen couldn’t suppress his smile. Little one seemed very persistent about getting an answer to this question.
Qin Sui’an was so curious that she even stopped drinking her favorite milk, furrowing her little brows in frustration. She wanted to attend her parents’ wedding because she was their daughter; how could she not be there? She really wanted to know why she hadn’t been born yet and if she could have been born earlier.
Tilting her little head, she pondered and then looked at her mommy sleeping on the hospital bed. "If Daddy can’t answer, can Mommy?"
Qin Haochen’s lips curled up. Like little one, he was looking at the woman on the hospital bed. He said softly, "Probably. Your mommy is very smart and knows more than Daddy."
"Then when Mommy wakes up, Ann will ask Mommy~" Qin Sui’an immediately beamed with joy, temporarily resolving the issue.
Hearing little one’s cheerful tone, the smile in Qin Haochen’s eyes deepened. Passing this "cosmic-level" problem to his wife made him feel a bit embarrassed.
He couldn’t answer it alone, but when she woke up, they could answer little one’s question together.
Qin Sui’an then finished the remaining milk in her bottle, contentedly licking her lips before holding the phone in place of the bottle in her hands. She happily announced, "Daddy, Ann finished! Not hungry anymore!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Little one remembered that she hadn’t finished talking about last night’s banquet. With her good memory, she immediately picked up where she left off, "After Ann gave Grandpa Ou his gift, it wasn’t long before the dancing started!"
Qin Haochen listened intently, not missing a single detail that little one shared.
Even though he received reports about everything that happened at the banquet right after it ended, hearing it directly from little one was incomparable.
He couldn’t attend the banquet with her, but he could still share her joy and happiness, experiencing it vicariously through her.
Talking about everything that happened at the banquet to her parents, Qin Sui’an didn’t feel tired at all; instead, she was very excited, "Although Ann has never met Grandma Ou, Grandpa Ou really loves Grandma Ou!"
With her mommy asleep, little one looked at her daddy, blinking her big round eyes, and asked seriously, "Daddy, do you love Mommy?"
