"Uncle," a childish and adorable voice rang out.
Shao Ling was also pleasantly surprised to see Li Li here. "Li Li," he had just asked Ning Yizhan if he wanted to get together, and he said that he and his girlfriend were taking care of their child outside, and were probably tired of it, so he asked if he wanted to come along.
Shao Ling then brought Shao Jin with him.
"Uncle, what are you doing here! My godmother, Uncle Ning, and I are having dinner!" Lili asked innocently. Being in the same private room meant they knew each other.
“Yes, Uncle Ning and I are like brothers!” Shao Ling liked the child very much, but he didn’t know that the child was Shu Zi’s.
Qiu Hu noticed the scene and sensed that Lili and Shaoling were quite familiar with each other. He unconsciously frowned and said, "Lili, sit down and eat. Stop chatting."
When Lili heard her godmother calling her, she exclaimed, "Oh, I'm coming!" She only quieted down during mealtimes.
The Shao brothers sat down and ordered two more dishes. Only Shao Jin and Ning Yizhan remained silent, looking at Shao Ling and Li Li thoughtfully. They even exchanged a glance. Ning Yizhan believed that Shao Jin shared the same feeling as him; Shao Ling and Li Li were somewhat alike.
Qiu Hu carefully took care of Lili's meal. Ning Yizhan never imagined that Qiu Hu would be serving others. He had complete faith that she would treat their child even more patiently in the future. Actually, this child was quite well-behaved; children are easy to take care of. At this moment, he was unaware that he had overestimated Qiu Hu's patience and underestimated the "excellent genes" of his and Qiu Hu's child.
The meal ended well. Qiu Hu asked Lili whether she wanted to go home or play outside for a while. Such a lively child would definitely choose to play outside.
"Where do you want to go?"
"The mall, I want to go to the mall!" Little Lili clapped her hands and cheered.
"Alright, let's go!"
Lili pulled Qiu Hu out of the private room, leaving the three men behind without waiting for the others. The little boy called out from a distance, "Uncle Ning, come quick!"
Ning Yizhan was about to leave when Shao Jin grabbed him, "You're leaving already?"
"What else?"
"You can take care of children?" Shao Jin asked in shock. Even Shao Ling next to him looked surprised. Had he become so love-struck after just a few days?
"Who said I went to take care of the kids? I went to be with my girlfriend." Ning Yizhan shook off his hand and followed Qiu Hu in the direction of the lake.
"Love-obsessed".
Ning Yizhan drove the two of them to the nearest supermarket. Qiu Hu first took Lili to buy clothes. Since she didn't have any children's clothes at home, she went into the children's clothing store and led Lili to the section for her age. "Lili, do you want to pick out clothes yourself, or should your godmother help me?"
"Okay, okay, godmother, help me pick out my clothes for tomorrow, I'll pick out my pajamas myself." Lili then started picking out her pajamas.
Before Qiu Hu could even start helping her choose, Lili had already brought a white bunny nightgown to her. "Godmother, does this one look good?"
Qiu Hu watched as she held up the nightgown to herself, finding it very suitable, and smiled indulgently, "Beautiful."
She turned around again and asked Ning Yizhan, "Uncle Ning, does this look good?"
"Hmm, looks good," Ning Yizhan, who had been completely invisible while shopping, finally spoke his first words if it weren't for Qiu Hu.
"Yay, that's great! It passed with three votes. Godmother, I want this one." Lili held out the pajamas to Qiu Hu.
“Okay,” Qiu Hu took her nightgown and led her to choose clothes for tomorrow. She had heard from Shu Zi that Lili really liked princess dresses, so she was going to pick one out for Lili.
She looked around and spotted a pink and white princess dress. She picked it up and showed it to Lili. "Princess, how about this one?"
Lili was overjoyed, clearly pleased. Her plump face crinkled with delight, and she even touched it, saying, "It's beautiful."
"Shall we give it a try?" "Sure!"
Ning Yizhan sat down outside the changing room, picked up his phone and looked at it, but his attention was actually on the sounds coming from inside. He was changing clothes, and the children inside were still chattering away...
When she came out after changing, she walked to the mirror and asked, "Godmother, am I pretty?" "Pretty!" She was praised and touched her cheeks while looking at herself in the mirror.
Ning Yizhan also took a look and thought that it was indeed quite nice. He thought to himself that if he and Qiu Hu had a daughter in the future, he would definitely buy her a room full of clothes, one for each day, with no repeats.
After changing their clothes, the three went to the cashier. Just as Qiu Hu was about to take out his wallet, the man's voice came: "Let me do it!"
Qiu Hu didn't stop him; he could pay whenever he wanted.
After buying clothes, they went to the supermarket. By this time, little Lili was tired from walking and didn't want to sit in the shopping cart, so Ning Yizhan carried her with one hand. In addition to picking out a few toys for Lili, he also bought her some snacks and daily necessities.
As they walked out of the supermarket, Qiu Hu looked at the lili in Ning Yizhan's hand and said, "Lili, let's go home!"
Lili was clearly tired from playing, and didn't say much after that, just "Okay."
In the car, Lili was playing with the toys she had just bought and was not talking. Then, her childish voice rang out again: "I miss my mom a little." Lili rarely separated from Shuzi, and she felt a little out of sorts when it was evening.
Clearly, Qiu Hu knew this too. "Then let's call Mom when we get home, okay?"
The childish voice turned muffled, "Okay."
When the car arrived at Jinyinwan, Qiu Hu greeted Ning Yizhan and then left with Lili in his arms.
Sigh, I never get a chance to be affectionate with my girlfriend!
Back at the villa, A-Yi greeted them and saw her young lady holding a child. "Waqu, how come there's an extra child? Yours?"
Qiu Hu placed Lili on the sofa, glanced at Ayi, and replied, "What, you've forgotten about Sister Shuzi's daughter, Lili?"
Shuzi had told Lili that her godmother's family had an aunt named Ayi, and she remembered it. Presumably, this is "Aunt Ayi".
Ayi remembered that Shuzi had a daughter, but she had only seen her a few times. She pinched her little face and said, "Lili, you've grown so much! I almost didn't recognize you. You're so cute!"
During a break in their conversation, Qiu Hu had already connected with Shu Zi via video call, said a few words to Shu Zi, and handed the phone to Li Li, saying, "Your mother."
Hearing that it was Shuzi on the phone, Lili's voice trembled with tears, "Hello, Mom, I miss you, when are you coming back?"
Shuzi's gentle voice came through the phone, "Lili, don't cry. Be good at your godmother's house. Mom will be back tomorrow."
The two chatted for a long time, and finally the call ended with Shu Zi saying, "Shu Wenli, keep going!" After that, Qiu Hu took her upstairs, gave her a bath and put her to bed. The next day, he took her to kindergarten. Only after seeing Lili enter the kindergarten did she dare to sigh and say that taking care of a child is really tiring!
