Chapter 32 Nian Nian's Belly

living room.

Two cups of tea were placed on the coffee table, with wisps of white smoke rising from them.

"Old Shi, please don't interrupt me." Jiang Shengjun warned him, "I know if I say thank you, you'll say I'm being distant, but I, Jiang Shengjun, can't refuse to thank you."

Shi Jianfeng swallowed back what he was about to say.

"I, Jiang Shengjun, have lived my entire life, and now, even at this old age, I still work in the company, just to provide for the well-being of my filial and resilient daughter-in-law and my grandson who has lost his father. The only family members who are most important to me in this world are her and her mother. For the sake of this family, no matter how much I am willing but unable to do, I have to support them..."

At this point, Jiang Shengjun's brows were filled with worry. "Eri can still help me, but my only concern is Du'an. He's young and mentally unstable, so I'm really worried. The only thing I can be thankful for is that his illness isn't serious. Seeing him get along with Nian Nian, I dare to hope for a little bit."

Shi Jianfeng retired early, but he is much better than Jiang Shengjun in every aspect.

He sometimes interacted with Li Han and Chen Yi at the company, and his mental state was far superior to Jiang Shengjun's. His second son, Shi Guilin, and third daughter, Shi Nanqi, were in different fields, but each had made their own achievements and was not left unnoticed.

In his early sixties, he is enjoying a peaceful retirement at home, with a harmonious family, his spouse by his side, and a wonderful grandson, Nian Nian. He is in high spirits. Any old man who sees him would be envious.

The more this kind of comparison there was, the more Shi Jianfeng understood the difficulties faced by his old friend Jiang Shengjun and was willing to help him from the bottom of his heart.

He sighed softly and offered consolation, "Do your best and leave the rest to fate. At least everything is moving in the right direction right now. I see Duan and Nian Nian are getting along just fine, so don't get too worked up. At our age, taking care of your health is paramount. As long as you're healthy and alive, everything will work out."

"Yeah, you can't force it." Jiang Shengjun pressed the heel of his palm against his sore eyes, threw away his depressed mood, and turned around and said, "Nian Nian is such a good child. Can I be shameless and be her godfather?"

Shi Jianfeng raised his eyebrows, looking as if his home had been stolen: "Your expression changed so quickly, were you just playing me? This is your real purpose, right?"

"Hahaha, really not. I really like Nian Nian's personality. Don't beat around the bush. Are you willing to let me be your godfather?"

Shi Jianfeng was silent for a few moments before he took a sip of Longjing tea from his cup. "Tell me the truth, do you think Nian Nian can help cure Du An's illness, and are you trying to tie Nian Nian and Du An together, and that's why you want to be his godfather? If that's the case, I don't agree."

He put down the teacup slightly heavily, and the bottom of the cup made a loud noise against the glass table. He turned his head away, unwilling to look at Jiang Shengjun.

"Hey, we've known each other for decades and you still don't understand me? Am I that kind of person?" Jiang Shengjun said indignantly, "If Nian Nian becomes my godson, I'll transfer 2% of Jiang's shares to her name. That's no empty promise."

Two percent was a lot, and Jiang Shengjun only had ten percent. Shi Jianfeng twirled his fingertips, his mind flashing to the image of Nian Nian's smiling or crying face, and he flatly refused.

"I can't make the decision on this matter alone. If you want to be Nian Nian's godfather, wait until Nian Nian is older and ask her if she's willing."

Jiang Shengjun sighed, "That's great. If Nian Nian agrees, you can't stop her."

"Of course I won't stop you." Shi Jianfeng glanced at him, "I'm glad to see that Nian Nian and Du An have a good relationship."

The Jiang family was one of the most trusted families in his circle. With Jiang Shengjun and Cheng Huili around, Jiang Duan couldn't go astray.

"Okay, let's stop talking and go eat." Jiang Shengjun finished an important matter and walked happily to the restaurant with Shi Jianfeng.

When the two of them arrived at the dining table and sat down one after another, Nian Nian and Jiang Duan had almost finished eating.

Jiang Shengjun casually glanced around to see what the little ones were eating. When he saw Jiang Duan awkwardly scooping food with a spoon, he was a little confused: "Duan, why isn't he eating with chopsticks?"

Before Jiang Duan even looked up, Nian Nian actively answered for Youyou, "Brother, I can't. Chopsticks, that's hard."

Jiang Shengjun: “?”

Cheng Huili: “.”

"Grandpa," Jiang Duan said calmly, his voice still childish but steady, "Have you forgotten? I still don't know how to eat with chopsticks."

What the hell.

Jiang Shengjun was incredulous. The sixty-year-old man's chewing speed had visibly slowed, and countless images of Jiang Duan using chopsticks flashed through his mind. The old man, bewildered, didn't understand his grandson's tricks, and the wrinkles on his face seemed even deeper.

He was just half-understanding the answer when he suddenly shifted his gaze and saw his daughter-in-law Cheng Huili winking at him.

Well, he didn't know what happened, but he decided not to ask.

After a while, Nian Nian finished his meal. He put down his spoon, touched his bulging belly, licked his lips which were shiny with food, and then seemed to be tired and stopped eating for two minutes.

"Brother." Nian Nian poked Jiang Duan's arm, "Nian Nian is thirsty."

Jiang Duan glanced at him, put down his spoon and was about to leave the table.

"Hey, where's Duan going?" Cheng Huili asked sharply.

Jiang Duan: "Nian Nian is thirsty, I'll go get some water."

Shi Jianfeng, who was eating nearby, said hurriedly, "I'll take it. I have Nian Nian's usual water cup in my bag. Use that."

Shi Jianfeng had no idea how many times he had come to the Jiang family over the past few decades. He put down his chopsticks, went back to the sofa to find his bag, unzipped it, took out his water cup, and took it home with ease.

Shi Jianfeng took a wet towel and wiped Nian Nian's little face and mouth, and then the small water cup fell into Nian Nian's hands.

Nian Nian was very thirsty after dinner, so she held the straw in her mouth and drank half a cup of water in one breath.

"Hmm." The little guy's stomach was full, he looked down with a dull look, his legs moving unconsciously with the movement.

My belly is so round.

The chubby-cheeked kid hugged his belly and said, "Nian Nian, eat more."

He was feeling proud when the restrained feeling in his stomach suddenly disappeared.

The round belly pushed open the round buttons of the pure cotton clothes, revealing the white belly.

Nian Nian widened her eyes and covered her belly with her hands in a daze.

"Grandpa! Nian Nian, Nian Nian, my belly ran away, wuwuwu..."
