Chapter 28 Zhao Zhao's Nosebleed
When Bian Ji's gaze suddenly locked onto him, Lu Yinzhao even felt a sudden tug on his head.
What kind of weird hobby is this, boss?
Why would someone like to mess with other people's pigtails?
After being put on the ground by his biological father, Lu Yinzhao began to "run away with his head in his hands".
Bian Ji's smile never faded; he seemed to have found amusement, gracefully and calmly following behind the little one.
She calmly called out to him, "Lu Yinzhao, stop running."
At this moment, a "cat and mouse" scene was unfolding in the living room.
Lu Yinzhao is small and has short legs. When he takes a big step, his two legs have to swing back and forth several times, so he can only increase the frequency of his swinging.
To Bian Ji, the scene was particularly comical and endearing; it was as if his brother had two electric rollers under his feet, spinning at maximum speed.
Bian Ji suddenly stopped chasing and shouted in the direction Lu Yinzhao had run, "Go find a place to hide. I'll count to one hundred and then come find you."
Lu Yinzhao paused in his steps.
Is this guy playing hide-and-seek?
Sure, after all, the big shot is just a kid now, so let's play with him for a while.
People who play hide-and-seek will first think of places with clear cover, such as wardrobes, under beds, and behind doors.
Lu Yinzhao simply stopped going to those places and went to his fourth brother's room to find a blanket that was similar in color to the floor. Then he grabbed a few pieces of his fourth brother's usual clothes and threw them next to the blanket.
I'm sorry, Fourth Brother!
I'll tidy it up for you in a bit.
His fourth brother's room wasn't very tidy to begin with. Although the nanny had mopped the floor and there wasn't a speck of dust, the books, stationery, computers, and other items on the table were scattered haphazardly.
Lu Yinzhao made a mess of the bed, so that the "nest" he had built on the ground wouldn't look so out of place.
The house gives the impression that the owner hasn't tidied up their clothes as soon as you walk in.
After quickly finishing these tasks, Lu Yinzhao crawled inside and hid slightly near the door.
Everything is now complete.
Lu Yinzhao felt he had hidden himself very well, and lay on the ground waiting patiently. When he got a little bored, he started playing with his fingers.
After counting the numbers in his mind, Bian Ji began to patrol the first floor.
He doesn't want to consider rooms on the second floor for the time being.
Given Lu Yinzhao's short legs, Bian Ji had a gut feeling that the other party didn't have the time to climb the stairs.
The little guy will probably be hiding in his older brother's or sister's room.
Bian Ji searched very quietly, even when he entered the room, he did so silently. After all, he was in someone else's house, and he couldn't just mess up the room.
So he never opened those wardrobes; he would just knock on the wardrobe doors when he arrived and coax the person out with words.
"Lu Yinzhao, are you here?"
"I know you're in there, come out."
Bian Ji has excellent hearing. If he finishes speaking a series of sentences and there is still no sound in the room, he will go directly to the next room.
He didn't believe Lu Yinzhao could hold back.
Bian Ji was trying to understand Lu Yinzhao's thought process.
He looked at the wardrobes; some of them had quite high shelves, and if Lu Yinzhao hadn't brought a stool, he definitely wouldn't have been able to get in.
Some bed types are floor-standing, making it impossible for people to hide underneath.
This narrowed down the search area further until he arrived at Lu Cheng's room and saw that the layout was so messy it didn't seem like the home he was looking at. He was slightly puzzled.
This room really hasn't been cleaned, or...?
Seeing the messy pile of clothes on the ground, Bian Ji didn't know where to put her foot.
Never mind, let's go to the next room. It wouldn't be good if we stepped on someone's clothes and got them dirty.
Just as Bian Ji turned to leave, he caught a glimpse of something bright out of the corner of his eye.
A small white veil, about the size of a baby's palm, was visible beneath the brown blanket.
Bian Ji: "..."
So that's where they were hiding.
Is this little thing trying to suffocate itself?
"Lu Yinzhao, come out."
Lu Yinzhao, hiding under the blanket, covered her ears, "..."
I can't hear you, I can't hear you, I can't hear you.
"Lu Yinzhao, it's inconvenient for me to walk over there. You come out yourself." Bian Ji simply crossed his arms and stared intently at the spot where Lu Yinzhao was hiding.
Lu Yinzhao bit her nail, thinking: This shouldn't be happening...
Or was the other party actually bluffing him?
Lu Yinzhao remained calm and continued to hold back.
Bian Ji watched with amusement as the other party's "clues" were slightly retracted, as if adjusting their position. However, after the adjustment, the "clues" were revealed even more.
The white hem of the skirt was almost impossible to conceal.
Bian Ji knew the little guy was burying his head in the sand, so he stopped urging him. If the other person wanted to play this way, he would just go along with it.
"I thought it was in this room, but it seems it's no longer here..." Bian Ji muttered to himself, and then sighed.
Bian Ji stepped away, making a sound on the floor.
After hearing the footsteps gradually fade away and disappear, Lu Yinzhao quietly lifted the "veil" and took a peek.
The room is empty.
He patted his chest, terrified.
Just as I was about to go out for some fresh air, the figure that had clearly already walked out suddenly turned back.
"Lu Yinzhao, I've got you."
Ugh! I'm so angry!
Lu Yinzhao crawled back in, his feet barely touching the ground.
Oh no, to be precise, it's below the knee...
Before Bian Ji could react, he saw a blanket bouncing around on the floor like a sweeper.
They just turned right in front of him and walked away.
Once outside the small blanket in the room, there is even more freedom.
The mothers chatting in the living room all stared wide-eyed.
"Yin Song, something just flashed by. Is it something in my eyes?"
"It's not your problem, I saw it too."
Bian Ji ran out helplessly and said, "It's Lu Yinzhao."
What is this child doing?
“Maybe…” Bian Ji hesitated for a moment, “…I’m just naturally lively.”
He didn't want to speculate that the other person's defenses were broken because he found them so easily.
The moving blanket stopped at the top of the stairs, and one of the kids started playing "Shedding its Shell" again.
After crawling out from under the blanket, it happily hid behind the stairs, peeking out half its little head to look into the living room.
Because of all that fuss, the little one's tuft of hair was crooked and his hair was a bit messy.
"Brother Ji! You don't win if you don't touch me!"
Everyone burst into laughter at these words.
"Yin Song, your child is so lively and adorable, Zhao Zhao is such a treasure!" Wen Su said with a smile.
“Zhao Zhao can be quite funny when she talks,” Yin Song said gently.
“Aunt Wen, Zhao Zhao is the joy of our family. I think Zhao Zhao needs to play with her friends more often to truly express her nature. You can let Xiao Ji come over often!” Lu Qi said to Wen Su.
"Okay, I will. I feel that my son's personality has changed a bit recently. He's not like before when he wasn't interested in anyone. It's all thanks to Zhaozhao!"
"Wen Su, you can't say that. I think your Xiao Ji is a good person. Maybe he was too withdrawn when he was abroad and there was no one around him who could play with him. Maybe his current state is his truest personality."
"You're right. I was so happy watching them play together." Looking at little Zhao Zhao in her tutu not far away, Wen Su sighed, "Oh my! If Zhao Zhao were a girl, I'd even arrange a marriage between my son and her, hahaha!"
Yin Song knew Wen Su was joking and didn't take it too seriously. "You're thinking really far ahead. I can't even imagine what it would be like if Zhao Zhao grew into a young man in the blink of an eye."
Thinking about all this, Yin Song felt a strange sadness and reluctance in his heart.
Time flies by in the blink of an eye. Back then, weren't her eldest, second, third, and fourth children just little kids?
Now they're all taller than her.
The two mothers did not say these words in front of their children, so Bian Ji and Lu Yinzhao did not hear those jokes.
Lu Yinzhao is a very easy child to coax. He was just stubborn, but when he saw Bian Ji coming over, he happily stuck to him again.
He completely forgot about the embarrassing moments he had experienced while wearing a skirt, and grabbed Bian Ji's hand, saying, "Let's go and tidy up the mess."
Bian Ji helped Lu Yinzhao pick up the blanket that had been dragged all the way, and nodded helplessly.
This little thing clearly messed up the room; are you trying to find him to do the hard work?
The two children came into Lu Cheng's room, cleaned up the messy floor, and remade the bed sheets.
Lu Yinzhao gets a little addicted to tidying things up, and he also plans to help his fourth brother arrange the things on the table.
Unable to reach the tabletop, he resorted to climbing onto the chair.
However, the wheels of the swivel chair in Lu Cheng's room were too flexible. As soon as the little boy stepped on it, the wheels slid backward quickly. He lost his grip and fell forward.
Just as the little guy was about to bump into the sharp edge of the table, Bian Ji quickly stepped forward and caught him in her arms.
Lu Yinzhao fell right into Bian Ji's arms.
His nose bumped right into Bian Ji's chin.
The pain caused him to shed physiological tears.
Bian Ji's chin also felt a tingling sensation, but he felt an even greater sense of lingering fear.
In the short time it took him to turn around, the little guy almost got into danger.
Bian Ji felt inexplicably angry, and his tone turned completely cold.
"If you can't reach it, you can let me do it. Why didn't you call me?"
Lu Yinzhao didn't think too much about it; he assumed he could climb up as easily as before.
Seeing the boss's gloomy face, Lu Yinzhao quickly slid to his knees and apologized.
The little girl's voice was soft and sweet: "I'm sorry, brother, I was wrong. I'll ask you for help with anything I can't do in the future."
He wanted to comfort the big boss and tell him not to be angry.
Suddenly, he felt something wet flowing down his nose.
He habitually raised his hand to touch it.
"..." The red lilies were in full bloom.
Oh dear, it got on my white dress.
But the little one wasn't flustered at all. He even looked up and grinned foolishly, "Brother Ji, are you feeling any better now?"
Bian Ji's vision went black, and he almost suffered a cardiac arrest.
What followed was chaos and turmoil.
Bian Ji went out to call for the adults, and Lu Wenyan and Yin Song hurriedly came over with a first-aid kit.
One person held the baby in their arms, while the other used a cotton ball to stop the bleeding from his nose.
Lu Qi also got a towel soaked in cold water from the bathroom and placed it on Zhao Zhao's nose.
Placing a cold towel here can promote blood vessel constriction.
Lu Wenyan then used a wet tissue to wipe Zhao Zhao's blood-stained face and wiped his little hands.
The scene of Lu Yinzhao's nosebleed just now was particularly stimulating. Bian Ji didn't think that getting a nosebleed was a big deal, but when it happened to Lu Yinzhao, he suddenly felt a strange fear.
With so much blood lost, Lu Yinzhao must be in a lot of pain.
He even said that about him...
Bian Ji clenched her hands, a wave of self-reproach washing over her.
"Mommy, it was Brother Ji who saved me just now, otherwise I would have hit my head on the table and my tooth would have flown out." The little one made an exaggerated expression, raised his little hand, and demonstrated the action of flying out.
"Aunt Wen, please don't blame my brother. It was all my fault today. I will never do such dangerous things again." Lu Yinzhao quickly explained, afraid that Wen Su would scold Bian Ji.
He reflected deeply on what happened today, and for a moment, he really thought of himself as a child, becoming somewhat smug and carried away.
Lu Yinzhao knew very well that if he got hurt in this family, the one who would feel the most pain would not be himself, but his family.
His family loves him so much, he needs to be more careful and protect himself in the future.
Wen Su originally wanted to say a few words, but Zhao Zhao's words interrupted her, and she realized that this was how things were.
Just now, her son suddenly ran out and said that Zhao Zhao's nose was bleeding. She thought that her son had lost his temper while playing with Zhao Zhao and accidentally hurt her nose.
After all, the blood vessels in a child's nasal cavity are particularly fragile, and they can easily bleed if you're not careful.
She gently patted the little one's head. "I know, you're so young, and you've already learned to worry? Zhao Zhao has been speaking up for her brother, but what about you? Does it hurt? Are you feeling unwell?"
Hearing Wen Su say that, Yin Song also felt sorry for her.
Sometimes, Zhao Zhao doesn't need to be so sensible.
She raised several children; how could she not know that children are most prone to bumps and bruises?
When Lu Cheng was three years old, she jumped off the table and broke her leg.
Lu Cheng almost cried so hard the roof broke.
Now that the little guy has seen himself bleeding so much, how could he not be frightened?
If it were any other child, they would have been crying and begging for their parents long ago.
Their Zhao Zhao's emotions... are so stable.
