If the system knew what the boy was thinking, it would definitely be the first to jump out and refute him.

How could that be!

Our little one doesn't have that level of education yet!

Chaochao tilted her head back, lost in beautiful daydreams.

Look, Brother Yu Shen!

If you plant it in the soil, it will sprout, grow tall, and bear fruit. You can also grow two new legs, and then you can stand up! Hehe!

Hey, doesn't that mean it has four legs?

The little dumpling suddenly fell into deep thought, clearly having never considered this question before.

Behind the glass, Pei Yushen also lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Although that's not what she meant.

But several images flashed uncontrollably through his mind.

His fingers slowly curled up to grip the wheelchair, the needle piercing his fingertip, drawing out droplets of blood. The boy, his eyes half-closed, was as cold as a frozen river.

Chaochao didn't notice Pei Yushen's sudden deepening of coldness, because before she could react, Xiao Kui, who had come looking for her, took her back to the villa.

Before being taken away, she caught a glimpse of blue on the lid of the cup outside the glass, and her almond-shaped eyes widened.

Hey, isn't that the little butterfly she was chasing?

Back home, Chaochao found Pei Yushen's new nanny, Aunt Qiu.

The little dumpling opened her clenched hands and asked, "Can I take this stone to Brother Yushen's room?"

Aunt Qiu looked troubled and said hesitantly, "Miss Chaochao, I'm afraid this won't work..."

She knew about some of Young Master Pei's past extreme behaviors, and the stone... was not without danger.

"Ah..." Chaochao lowered her hand with some regret, then the little brother couldn't touch it with his own hands. "Okay."

The little boy put away the stone in his hand, politely thanked the nanny, and then ran off and disappeared.

What an adorable child!

The nanny smiled as she watched the little girl's departing figure. After a moment, she turned and glanced in the direction of the guest room, her eyes filled with worry.

Young Master Pei seemed to be in a bad mood just now.

...

the next day.

The little dumpling was playing in that garden, just like yesterday.

What's special is that she prepared a cardboard box for Little Green, stuffed it with soft cotton, and covered it with a small blanket.

Squatting down, Chaochao tried her best to make eye contact with Pei Yushen behind the glass.

Brother Yu Shen, you can just raise it like this!

She touched it tenderly every morning.

Oh, it's a pity you can't go to your brother's room, Little Green.

So I can only put you here. Hmm... this place is called the outer room?

system:"……"

That's not how you use the word "baby"! Σ(?д?|||)??

After settling Little Green Baby in, Chaochao was full of energy and wandered around playing. She could appear in any corner of Pei Yushen's field of vision throughout the day.

Once she discovers something interesting, the little dumpling will run over excitedly to share it with the boy behind the glass. Even though Pei Yushen always has a cold expression, it doesn't affect her enthusiasm for gesturing or drawing at all.

After the one-sided conversation, Chaochao left satisfied.

All day long, separated by a pane of glass.

He was out having fun by himself every day.

Pei Yushen watched from inside without any change in expression.

System's scathing comment: She's making a scene, and he's watching.

On the morning of the third day.

After the nanny drew back the curtains, Pei Yushen, as usual, maneuvered his wheelchair to the window, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon.

Early that morning, Chaochao, who was fast asleep, was groggily pulled out of bed by Jiang Chi.

"Chaochao is going out, don't sleep."

"Sleep on the way."

The sleepy little dumpling's brain is starting up.

One minute later.

Chaochao gradually came to her senses: "Oh right, I'm meeting Leo, Xiaoqing, Changchang, and Brother Leibao today!"

As she recited more and more of her friends' names, Chaochao's eyes grew brighter and brighter. Excitedly, she snatched the clothes from Jiang Chi's hands, saying, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

Jiang Chi: "...Okay, here you go..."

The next second.

"Hey! That's not a hoodie!"

...

While eating breakfast, Chaochao stared intently at the trembling spoon as she drank her congee. The soft, cooked rice grains slipped out one by one. She was utterly shocked. "Brother, there's an earthquake!"

Jiang Chi: "..."

Is it possible that your hands were shaking like that?

"Never mind, I'll feed you." As soon as Jiang Chi finished speaking, he suddenly felt a prickling sensation on his back, and he turned around hesitantly.

He saw his uncle, dressed in a suit and tie, sitting on the sofa with his long legs crossed, casually holding a document in his hand, glancing at him with a half-smile that was chillingly cold.

Jiang Chi was silent for a moment, then stood up and made way for her seat, saying hesitantly, "How about... Uncle, you feed her?"

Jiang Chi was unsure of his uncle's meaning, but everything settled the moment Huo Qin calmly stood up.

Jiang Chi: ? It's really like that?

The little dumpling's shocked gaze shifted from the spoon to her arm.

My hands, what's wrong with them?

Do you still recognize me?

Huo Qin took the soup spoon from Chao Chao's hand, his voice ambiguous, "Don't move any more heavy things, understand?"

Chaochao obediently opened her mouth and took a sip of porridge: "Why?"

Huo Qin gently pressed her pale arm with a calm expression.

This press had a significant impact.

"Aww—"

Chaochao's almond-shaped eyes widened in pain as she hugged her arm, her little face full of disbelief. "Daddy, you ambushed me!"

"Pfft..."

Jiang Chi couldn't hold back any longer.

Huo Qin glanced over with a cold look in his eyes.

Jiang Chi: "..."

Then, Huo Qin briefly explained to Chaochao that excessive exercise can cause muscle soreness.

The child seemed to understand, but not quite.

Don't adults always say that exercise makes you healthy?

She didn't understand this question until her brother picked her up and she tearfully said goodbye to her father and grandfather.

In the last second before stepping out of the villa, Chaochao leaned on Jiang Chi's shoulder and looked at the tightly closed door.

She hadn't said goodbye to Brother Yu Shen yet...

In the room, Pei Yushen was leaning against a wheelchair.

His dark eyes revealed no emotion.

No one appeared in the garden until the afternoon.

The nanny quietly opened the door to check on Young Master Pei's condition.

The servants' restrained laughter and the faint sound of a video drifted into the room from the lobby.

Just as the nanny confirmed that everything was alright and was about to close the door.

"What are you looking at outside?"

The boy's hoarse, indifferent voice came from ahead.
