When Nanxi woke up, she opened her eyes and saw her husband lying on the sofa beside her bed, with their daughter sleeping soundly on his chest.
Ever since he gave birth to his daughter and left the ward, he has slept by her bedside every night to take care of her personally. Even when he returned home, he did not go to bed, but just slept on the single sofa. Fortunately, when his daughter woke up in the middle of the night, he could go to take care of her without waking her up.
But she could clearly feel that her husband had been very busy these days. Every day when he came home, there was fatigue between his brows. But even so, the first thing he did when he got home was to take care of herself and the children.
The man seemed to be asleep at this moment. Little Zhaozhao was lying on his father's broad chest, sleeping very soundly.
Nanxi reached out and smoothed the deep worry between her husband's brows. There were countless things waiting for him to deal with every day in this country. With her, she hoped that he could relax a little, even if it was just a little bit, and be an ordinary man and an ordinary father.
Suddenly, Nanxi's small hand was covered by the man's big hand, put to his lips and kissed.
"Awake? Baby." Baru opened his eyes and asked in a low voice.
"Well, did I wake you up?" The wife's voice was also very soft.
"I'm not asleep. I'm just resting for a while." He smiled faintly. Nanxi was dazed for a moment. She seemed to see again the young man under the bamboo building in Daqili. He kicked open the shabby door of the yard and shouted to the second floor, "Nan Xiaoxi, I'm back."
"What are you thinking about?" Baru pinched his wife's palm and asked lightly.
"I was wondering why my husband is still so handsome. He was handsome when he was a teenager, and now, in a high position, he is still handsome."
It was rare for his wife to praise him. The man was stunned at first, then his smile became even wider. "If I didn't have this pretty face, how could I have chased you? My eldest lady?"
"You are so conceited. There are many more handsome men than you. Just give me a pole and you climb up." The little woman tapped his eyebrows and glared at him delicately.
"There's nothing I can do. Not only am I handsome, but my gun is also strong. You like this." The unruly man started teasing her again.
"Oh, you're so annoying." Nanxi pulled his ear.
I knew this bastard couldn't stand being praised.
Before Balu could say anything, his daughter in his arms began to stir. The man nervously lay back down and waited until the little girl stopped moving before he looked up at his wife.
"Baby, are you hungry? Go downstairs and eat first. I'll come downstairs after my daughter wakes up and finishes her milk."
"Just put her on the bed. She's only this small, but you've spoiled her to such a degree that she'll cling to you as soon as she smells you, and cry if you don't hold her. Who knows what she'll do in the future. You can't always let her sleep in your arms when you're not home, right?"
"Just hug me, my daughter. I'm happy to spoil you. At worst, I can lead the army and you can just rest at home."
The man pulled his daughter's clothes with his big hand with concern, and rubbed his cheek against hers, not knowing how to show his affection.
Nanxi glared at him and said, "It's really unbearable to watch."
…
When Nan Zhao was one year old, Wu Jie returned from Europe.
At that time, Ba Chuang surrounded Wu Jie, a little bit unable to believe it. It had only been a year since they last met, but how come Brother Jie had grown so tall? He didn't even want to play with him anymore.
Wu Jie carried Ba Chuang onto his shoulders. The young man, whose voice had already begun to change, asked in a rough and hard voice,
"Are you stupid? Don't you recognize your boss? Are you thinking of rebelling?"
"Brother Jie, why have you changed so much? And you've become uglier." The younger brother, who is still in the early childhood stage, doesn't know how to take care of the boss's face, and the truth he tells hurts people's hearts.
"Bullshit, I'm going to school. I'm too handsome and girls are pestering me. How can I learn any skills? Besides, my aunt just said that I'm the ugliest at this age. I'll grow out of the ugliness and become handsome again when I turn 18. You know shit."
Ba Chuang said "Oh" indifferently, then asked, "Brother Jie, where is the gun you promised to give me?"
"Uncle Long confiscated it. He didn't even let me play with it, so how could he let you play with it?"
As soon as Wu Jie landed, he went to the military building to find Baru, who confiscated all his weapons. He gave only one reason:
"At your age, handling a gun outside Myanmar could easily lead to accidents. I don't want to go to a foreign prison to get you out."
Ba Chuang was extremely disappointed. "Brother Jie, why are you so cowardly? Don't you know how to hide secretly?"
"Hide your ass. You can't play now either. Auntie said she'll send you to kindergarten in China in the next six months. China has more rules than Europe. Just study hard. I'll come back to see you during the holidays. If you make trouble and get kicked out of school, I'll beat you to death. I don't keep cowards under my command. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Ba Chuang lowered his head even more.
"Well, when you go to China, Xiao will take care of you. I will secretly give you some pocket money every month and transfer it to Xiao's account. Don't let the adults find out, especially Uncle Long.
I heard him talking to Uncle Zhou on the phone. He said you can't even go to an aristocratic school, so you have to go to an ordinary school. Moreover, you can't have servants, and your pocket money is the standard for ordinary children in China. You like buying things so much, it must not be enough. So, what do you think? Is the boss treating you well?
"Well, Brother Jie, you're so kind." Ba Chuang sighed, "Actually, my mom has already told me about this. I made a scene and got beaten up by my dad. He said that this is how my grandpa raised Mom, and that's how he raised her well. Now, I have to follow in her footsteps."
"It's okay. I've got you covered, don't worry. I won't let you suffer any loss. I'll secretly fly to China when I have time to visit you and Xiao. I bought Xiao an apartment in China, so you can go there whenever you want and leave the toys you bought there. When you go to high school, I'll buy you an apartment too. Uncle Long is too busy to take care of you."
