Si Lili gritted her teeth and secretly vowed that she would agree to go on a blind date with her mother when she got home.
Who cares about the other person's family situation? As long as they look decent and aren't ugly or deformed, that's fine.
She would lower her standards as much as possible, hoping to find herself a boyfriend as soon as possible.
This way, it'll be good to find Xibao an uncle, so that the little one won't call everyone "uncle," which is really embarrassing for her!
Tang Shuo's sharp eyes, like those of a hawk, were fixed on Si Lili in front of him, taking in all the changes in her expression, as if he could guess what she was thinking.
Suddenly, without warning, he opened his mouth and said in a deep yet powerful voice, "Children never lie, and I've already taken it seriously."
He had a bad feeling that if he remained silent, he would really lose this woman completely.
He was reluctant to let go; otherwise, over the years, whenever he heard that Si Lili had a boyfriend, he would interfere and use every means to break them up.
This is probably the root cause of Si Lili's lifelong loneliness.
"What?" Si Lili didn't react for a moment, looking at the man in front of her in surprise, not knowing what he meant by saying that.
Tang Shuo's gaze was cold and resolute, without the slightest hesitation or retreat.
He reached out and took Si Lili's hand, clearly expressing his thoughts word by word: "I'm serious. Come with me now, I have something to tell you."
Then, before Si Lili could react, he winked at Xi Bao and said playfully, "Little devil, you won't object to borrowing your aunt for one night, will you?"
After being enlightened by Xi Bao, he finally understood.
Instead of dragging things out with Si Lili, it's better to lay things out in the open and make things clear. Continuing to be vague like this is not a solution in the long run.
Xi Bao smiled and waved her hand, "I don't object. As long as you want to ask my aunt out, Uncle, you can do it anytime!"
He couldn't help but secretly rejoice; it seemed the uncle he had found was now a sure thing.
Tang Shuo sincerely thanked him: "Okay, thank you for your generosity."
He reached out and ruffled Xibao's fluffy hair, like an elder, and instructed, "Go find your father and mother, don't run around. Your uncle will take you to the amusement park another day."
"Great! Uncle, it's a deal. You mustn't keep me waiting too long!"
When Xi Bao heard that the man in front of her was going to take her to the amusement park, her eyes lit up. She clapped her chubby little hands and cheered happily, calling him "Uncle" so affectionately that even Si Lili, who was standing to the side, felt a little jealous.
"Hmm, not too long, this weekend, please!" Tang Shuo decided immediately.
"Yay!" Xi Bao jumped up happily, then urged the two people in front of her to hurry up and go on their date. "Auntie, Uncle, you two go on your date! Don't worry about Xi Bao."
Xibao will stay home obediently and wait for you to take me to the amusement park this weekend.
"We're leaving! Bye-bye!" Tang Shuo grabbed Si Lili's hand and walked outside.
With a doting auntie smile, Xi Bao watched Si Lili and Tang Shuo walk away, waving goodbye to their retreating figures: "Uncle, Auntie, bye-bye! Have a good time! Xi Bao will miss you!"
After Su Niannian and Si Lijue cuddled tenderly for a moment, oblivious to everyone else, Si Lijue reluctantly let go of the person in his arms and said softly to her, "Your clothes are torn, let's go change them."
"Okay!" Su Niannian nodded in agreement.
Si Lijue took Su Niannian's hand and was about to walk towards the wardrobe to help her choose clothes.
Seeing Tang Shuo leave hand in hand with Si Lili, Su Niannian couldn't help but ask Si Lijue with a question, "Are Lili and Tang Shuo very familiar with each other?"
"Well, I guess so!" Si Lijue explained unhurriedly, "Tang Shuo and I have been friends since high school. Back then, he often came to my house as a guest, and we naturally became familiar with each other over time."
"Oh! I see!" Su Niannian nodded, then suddenly seemed to remember something and asked again, "Wait, you said you were high school classmates, and he often came to your house, so Lili must have met Tang Shuo in junior high or high school?"
If she remembered correctly, Si Lijue was two years older than Si Lili, which meant he was two years ahead of her.
Si Lijue added with a smile, "To be precise, she officially met Tang Shuo in her first year of high school. Tang Shuo and I were in our final year of high school, and I brought Tang Shuo home on our coming-of-age ceremony. From then on, Tang Shuo became a frequent visitor to our home."
Su Niannian suddenly realized: "Oh! I understand now. No wonder I felt that Tang Shuo looked familiar when I first met him. It turns out that I saw his picture in Lili's yearbook."
Then, she cautiously asked Si Lijue, "Did you know that Lili had a secret crush on Tang Shuo when she was in high school?"
Si Lijue replied calmly, "Hmm! I know a little. It's just a little girl's unrequited love. Tang Shuo doesn't like her."
Feelings can't be forced. As for their relationship, whatever the outcome, I, as their older brother, won't interfere.
Su Niannian looked at the man in front of her and saw that he was very rational and calm, as if he were talking about someone insignificant. She couldn't help but give him a thumbs up in her heart.
He truly deserves to be called a person of great importance; he remains unmoved even when Mount Tai collapses before him.
Si Lijue looked at the little boy standing dumbfounded at the door and called out, "Xibao, you go play with Uncle Lin Fei, I'm going to pick out clothes for your mother." After saying that, without waiting for his son's consent, he pulled Su Niannian towards the wardrobe.
Xi Bao watched helplessly as her parents walked hand in hand toward the wardrobe, completely ignoring their precious child. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions, a bitter taste in her mouth.
He muttered to himself, "Alright, you two can go shopping as you please, and make plans with my aunt as you like. Just leave this poor little thing to the side. After all, I was just a free gift with a phone top-up!"
Lin Fei walked over slowly, a faint smile blooming on his slightly tired face.
He said softly, "Young Master, you're not lonely at all, because I'll always be with you!" His tone was gentle and comforting, with a hint of sympathy.
Xi Bao tilted her head back and stared at Lin Fei for a long time before beckoning him with her finger, signaling him to bend down.
Lin Fei, puzzled, bent down as Xi Bao requested, looked down at the little boy in front of him, and asked curiously, "Young Master Xi Bao, what's wrong? Do you have any instructions?"
Xi Bao frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on Lin Fei. His originally gentle voice became heavy and full of meaning as he slowly said, "Actually, if I really had a choice, I would rather not have you come with me. Do you understand what I mean?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xi Bao stretched out her right hand and gently placed it on Lin Fei's shoulder, as if this pat contained a thousand words.
