Chapter 222 Acquaintance
"Mommy, I'm grown up now. I don't need you to hold me anymore." Although the little guy said this, his arms around Xu Qingsui's neck tightened unconsciously, and he naturally rested his head on her shoulders.
Xu Qingsui couldn't help laughing when he saw him saying one thing but doing another.
"What do you want to eat tonight? How about Mommy take you to the supermarket?"
Xu Youyou immediately straightened up and said excitedly: "Okay, Mommy, I want to eat boiled shrimp!"
Ever since Xu Youyou learned to eat, his favorite food has been various kinds of shrimps. Their smooth and chewy texture is also good for the growth of his teeth.
"Okay, then let's go buy some shrimp."
Xu Qingsui was just about to carry the little one away when, at that moment, a hand reached out from behind her and took the little one away from her arms.
Xu Qingsui was so scared that he quickly grabbed Xu Youyou. When he looked up, he found that the person coming was Huo Xilin.
She breathed a sigh of relief: "Why are you here?"
Huo Xilin took Xu Youyou over and said, "I just sent Qin Fang to the airport. It was just time for school to end, so I came to pick you and your son up."
"Brother Qin left?" Xu Qingsui asked in surprise, "How did you persuade him to leave? Did you two have a fight?"
As she asked, she scanned Huo Xilin's exposed skin. Only after she was sure that there were no scars did she feel relieved.
Huo Xilin was amused by her nervous look and said, "Don't worry, we are all civilized people and will only solve problems in a civilized way. What you are worried about will not happen."
Xu Qingsui sneered at what he said. She knew better than anyone whether the two of them were civilized people.
"I just heard you and your son say you want to go shopping in the supermarket. Let's go together." Huo Xilin said, holding the little guy in one hand and freeing up the other hand to hold Xu Qingsui's hand.
Xu Youyou originally wanted to break free from Huo Xilin's arms, but when he saw his father holding his mother's hand and the warm picture of their family of three, his struggling movements turned into hugging Huo Xilin's neck tightly.
Huo Xilin was a little overwhelmed by the little guy's sudden intimate action. The softest part of his heart seemed to be touched, and he immediately froze in place.
Xu Qingsui sensed his strangeness and asked, "What's wrong?"
Huo Xilin shook his head and gave her a gentle smile.
In an instant, it seemed as if all the ice and snow between heaven and earth had melted.
When Huo Xilin is not smiling and when he is smiling, he is in two completely different states.
Xu Qingsui couldn't help but look at her twice more, and his heartbeat quickened uncontrollably.
This man exudes his charm all the time. Wherever he appears, he becomes the focus.
"Student Xu Youyou, will your parents come to pick you up from school today?" A little girl suddenly appeared, stood in front of the three people, and asked with her head raised.
The little guy changed his obedience just now, struggled to get out of Huo Xilin's arms, nodded to the little girl in a pretentious manner, and then looked around: "No one came to pick you up today? Where's your grandma?"
"She went to the toilet and asked me to wait for her here." The little girl was pretty and beautiful, dressed up beautifully and cleanly. Her family loved her at first sight.
"Hello uncle and auntie, I'm Xu Youyou's deskmate, my name is Ye Zihan." The little girl introduced herself in a pleasant manner.
"Hello, classmate Zi Han." Xu Qingsui liked this little girl from the bottom of his heart.
As they were talking, an old lady dressed fashionably came over and took the little girl's hand: "Hello, my child is not causing you any trouble, right?"
Xu Qingsui shook his head and heard Xu Youyou say, "Hello, Grandma Ye."
"It turns out to be classmate Youyou." The old lady looked at Xu Qingsui, then at Huo Xilin, her eyes brightened instantly: "You are Huo Xilin, right?"
"Madam Ye, long time no see." Huo Xilin returned to his usual appearance and greeted her lightly.
"I haven't seen you for many years. I almost didn't recognize you. I haven't seen your mother for a long time. Is she in good health?"
Huo Xilin nodded: "It's OK."
"Is this your child?" the old lady asked curiously.
"Well, this is my dear son, and this is my wife."
"I didn't expect your son to be this old. When did he get married? Three years ago..." Halfway through her words, Old Lady Ye felt something was wrong and immediately changed the subject: "Very good, very good. I didn't expect that the children of our two families could be classmates. I'll visit your mother another day."
Huo Xilin nodded: "I will convey it to you."
"Zi Han, say goodbye to your uncle and aunt, we're leaving." When the greetings were almost over, Old Mrs. Ye said to her granddaughter.
"Goodbye, uncle and aunt. See you tomorrow, classmate Youyou." The little girl said goodbye politely.
Xu Youyou waved and said, "Goodbye, Grandma Ye." Then she said to Ye Zihan, "Come earlier tomorrow. I'll help you check the homework assigned by the teacher."
"Okay!" The little girl smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.
After the two left, Xu Qingsui looked at her son. As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his mother. It was obvious that her son liked the girl.
Although he looks serious and cold, his actions cannot deceive people. When would he meddle in other people's affairs? He also asked the little girl to come earlier so that he could check her homework.
"Mommy, why are you staring at me?" The little guy felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, and subconsciously hid in Huo Xilin's arms.
"Xu Youyou, why don't you explain to Mommy the relationship between you and this classmate Ye Zihan?"
Xu Youyou said truthfully: "She is my new good friend."
"Do you have any other friends besides her?"
Xu Youyou shook her head: "Other students are too noisy, I don't like them."
"Is classmate Ye Zihan going to make a fuss?"
Xu Youyou shook her head again: "She is very well behaved."
Xu Qingsui: “…”
Putting aside the face, why did she see the shadow of Huo Xilin in Xu Youyou?
Xu Qingsui couldn't help but glare at Huo Xilin. It was all his fault that he had bad genes, which were passed on to his son, and he learned how to flirt with girls at such a young age.
Huo Xilin looked innocent, bent down, and asked Xu Youyou: "Do you want to walk by yourself or do you want dad to carry you?"
Xu Youyou blushed, and after a long while she stretched out her hand and said in a very low voice, "Daddy, hold me."
Even so, Huo Xilin still heard it clearly.
This was the first time the little guy called him dad. For a moment, Huo Xilin couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
Blood ties are truly the most wonderful thing in this world. Even two people who have never met can become extremely close.
He picked up the little guy and rubbed his head with his hand, his eyes full of approval. A father's love is always extraordinarily deep, and he is not good at expressing it in words.
