Seeing Sui Sui's smiling face, Chu Yan sighed for the umpteenth time -
The little cub's mood is really like the wind, coming and going quickly.
Of course, he hoped to be happier every year.
Sui Sui's innocent eyes were free of any gloom, and Chu Yan felt that his gloomy mood had improved.
He exhaled lightly, leaned forward slightly, and spoke in a rare gentle tone:
"So you want to go upstairs now?"
Sui Sui shook her head and bit her finger.
Her clever little brain was working, trying to find a suitable reason to stay.
...Ling Zhe behind him could hardly bear to watch it anymore and was about to step forward to help explain.
A little slap every year!
ah!
Figured it out!
"I see you're so bored here alone! I'll stay and keep you company!"
Suisui raised her little chin, and her face vividly showed the words "Look, I'm treating you well" written in big letters.
Chu Yan was at a loss for words, the thin ice in his heart trembled slightly:
"Then... thank you?"
"You're welcome!"
Wave goodbye with great generosity every year.
It seemed that she had completely forgotten about Chu Yan scaring her to tears.
Because right now, there is something more important occupying Sui Sui's mind——
Treatment of Chu Yan!
If you are not a member of the Xuanmen sect and have not practiced the art of observing qi, it is difficult to observe the ginseng essence that is like broken stars and flowing light with the naked eye.
Plus, today's weather is good, with clear skies and bright sunshine, which is enough to provide some cover for Sui Sui's spellcasting...
What Suisui had agreed with Lingzhe in advance was to find a way to get close to Chu Yan and secretly pass on the ginseng essence.
So, now is undoubtedly the best time!
Sui Sui, whose intuition was as sharp as that of a little animal, decisively seized the opportunity, took the initiative to approach Chu Yan, and acted as if he really wanted to accompany Chu Yan.
Chu Yan was a little surprised by this familiarity.
He looked again at Ling Zhe, whom he thought was Sui Sui's parent.
Ling Zhe said to Sui Sui with a calm expression:
"In that case, just sit here and play for a while, I'll pick you up later!"
After a pause, he nodded solemnly towards Chu Yan:
"Thank you for your help."
Sui Sui's tone is cheerful:
“Okay!”
Chu Yan:......
Is he the only one who thinks this decision is hasty and ridiculous?
And that young parent, is he so careless that he never doubted his identity and purpose, and didn't worry at all that his little cub would be taken away quietly?
In an instant, Chu Yan felt a little unhappy.
It feels not worth it to meet such unreliable parents.
He, who never meddles in other people's affairs, actually had the urge to intervene and say something.
Unfortunately, he didn't wait for him to speak.
Ling Zhe, who had been scolded by his elder sister since he was a child and had developed amazing intuition, suddenly shuddered.
Then he spoke hurriedly, without even pausing for punctuation:
"I have something else to do, I'll be back in twenty minutes!"
He winked quickly at Sui Sui, and without caring whether Sui Sui saw him or not, he disappeared in a flash.
Chu Yan frowned, afraid of scaring the little cub, and asked Sui Sui in a gentle voice:
"Is that your brother? Dad?"
Sui Sui's little face hesitated:
"It's my brother... maybe... maybe..."
She clasped her hands together in her heart and made a wish to God:
I hope my brother doesn't hear it!
Please please!
Chu Yan pursed her lips again, becoming more and more displeased with Ling Zhe.
But he did not involve his emotions with Sui Sui at all, and just gently reminded her:
"Next time, don't get too close to strangers. It's absolutely wrong to be as careless as your brother. What if I'm a bad person? What if I want to take you away secretly? You must always be on guard against others."
Sui Sui was completely bewildered and could only foolishly retort:
"You're not a bad person!"
Chu Yan almost laughed, but was also a little angry.
He flicked his fingers and resisted the urge to pinch the soft flesh on Sui Sui's cheeks:
"Don't just trust someone's appearance. Bad people don't have a bad person written on their face."
Sui Sui whispered:
"My feeling is very accurate. You like me very much. You are not a bad person. You are..."
This is my destined person!
Sui Sui didn't say the latter part because she knew she shouldn't say it lightly.
When Chu Yan heard this, he was even more at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
He found that there was no point in arguing about such issues with an ignorant little cub.
The cubs have their own magical logic, and adults can't defeat them at all.
So, Chu Yan simply chose to give up.
And decided to wait for Ling Zhe to come back and talk to him about this matter.
Before that, of course I have to spend more time with Sui Sui.
Chu Yan failed to realize one thing at this time——
He has always been a person with a strong sense of time.
According to his original plan, he didn't go downstairs for a walk, but just to find an open place to make phone calls and handle work under the pretext of a walk.
This move was to avoid being reported to Wen Chi by the caregiver.
But now, he completely put those urgent tasks behind his mind and instead thought seriously about how to play with Suisui.
To be honest... he has absolutely no experience in this area.
Even when attending various gatherings, children would be terrified and afraid of him like a tiger when they saw him.
This was the first time someone like Sui Sui came up to him and insisted on playing with him.
Chu Yan felt very surprised and treated it more seriously.
He suddenly remembered his childhood experiences.
The eyes covered with a thin layer of ice are filled with tiny lights called longing.
When he spoke, his tone was inexplicably difficult:
"Let me weave a grasshopper for you. This is something I used to...someone taught me."
Sui Sui didn't notice the pause in Chu Yan's tone, and just clapped his hands happily:
"Yes, yes! I like grasshoppers!"
Chu Yan's mouth corners raised.
Then, he took a few long blades of grass from the nearby bushes and held them in his palm.
Chu Yan originally thought that he would need some time to recall the steps his mother taught him to make straw grasshoppers.
Surprisingly, his fingers carried muscle memory.
When he held the grass blade in his hand, his fingers moved spontaneously, as smoothly as flowing water, and he quickly and skillfully weaved a grass-green grasshopper.
I could faintly hear my mother's smiling voice:
'Look, isn't this well made? Give it to your sister!'
Chu Yan gave the straw grasshopper he made by himself in his memory to his younger sister Wen Mo.
Now Chu Yan repeated the straw grasshopper he remembered from that year and handed it to Sui Sui.
…The picture vaguely emerged.
...The little face in my memory overlaps with the little face in front of me, and their eyebrows and eyes are indescribably similar.
Chu Yan's hand, along with the straw grasshopper, paused in mid-air, looking at Sui Sui in surprise.
Sui Sui looked up at him, confused.
Chu Yan's arms couldn't stop shaking:
“You, you are…”
"ha?"
Sui Sui tilted his head, and Xiao Daimao tilted his head.
Those pure black and white eyes made Chu Yan feel even more familiar.
His soul was shaken, and he suddenly stretched out his hand, holding Sui Sui's shoulder, his eyes piercing:
"Who...who is your mother?"
