Little Soft Candy stared at Gu Weizhou for a long while, her big, dark eyes, like obsidian, wide open.
Before the eldest could even recognize him, the little one recognized who it was and excitedly rushed over, shouting, "Daddy, Daddy's back! My daddy's back!"
Gu Weizhou reached out and caught his daughter who rushed towards him, then picked her up with a smile, his eyes full of doting fatherly love: "Missed Daddy?"
"I miss it so much!" Little Soft Candy hugged Gu Weizhou and acted coquettishly.
Looking at the soft and adorable little gummy bear, his heart almost melted: "Daddy misses you too, misses you all!"
When he said the last three words, he looked at Ruan Yunxi.
Ruan Yunxi smiled and said, "It's good that you're back. We've all been waiting for you!"
"I rushed back as soon as I finished my work, but I still missed watching the lantern festival with you all." Gu Weizhou said with some regret.
Little Gummy shook her head: "It's okay, there will be other opportunities. Mom made me a lantern, it's so pretty, Dad, look!"
Looking at the lantern that Little Softie was showing off, Gu Weizhou smiled and said, "Your mother is so amazing, the lantern is very beautiful!"
"My mom is the best mom in the world!" Little Gummy proudly declared.
This made Ruan Yunxi a little embarrassed: "It's alright!"
Gu Weizhou seized the opportunity to declare: "In my heart, you are indeed the best!"
Ruan Yunxi blushed slightly: "Did you eat honey today?"
"Yeah, you ate a lot!" Gu Weizhou teased her.
The young couple exchanged a knowing smile, their eyes practically twinkling with affection.
Gu Weizhou hadn't eaten yet, and Ruan Yunxi, after walking around, was also a little hungry.
Little Gummy also joined in the fun, saying she was hungry.
Ruan Yunxi said, "Cook more, and we'll eat some with you. There's still some leftover rice at home. How about we make some fried rice with eggs? We all love your cooking!"
"Fried rice with egg, fried rice with egg, I love the fried rice that Daddy makes!" Little Softie almost sang happily.
Gu Weizhou looked and saw that there was indeed leftover rice. He took three eggs and fried all the leftover rice.
Ruan Yunxi asked, "Mom and Dad, do you want some fried rice with eggs? We made a lot."
"No need, you can eat by yourselves. We're tired and need to rest!" Mr. and Mrs. Gu were sensible and didn't want to disturb their son and daughter-in-law's time together.
The old woman didn't eat either; she basically stopped eating after six o'clock.
A large bowl of fried rice was served. Ruan Yunxi and Xiao Ruantang each ate a few bites, and the rest went to Gu Weizhou.
He was starving, so he ate the fried rice with eggs in big mouthfuls, finishing it all.
Ruan Yunxi was worried that he hadn't eaten enough: "Should we cook some more noodles?"
Gu Weizhou shook his head: "No need, I'm full. I won't be able to sleep if I eat too much."
Seeing the three children already dozing off, and Little Softie rubbing her eyes, Gu Weizhou washed the dishes and then accompanied them back to sleep.
Little Gummy fell asleep shortly after lying down.
She was still clutching her father's clothes, as if afraid he would run away.
After she fell asleep, I put the little gummy bear next to her and let her sleep with my youngest and second youngest siblings.
After the children fell asleep, Gu Weizhou finally had a chance to hug his wife: "You've worked so hard these past few days, you've even lost weight."
Ruan Yunxi laughed: "Then you have a problem with your eyes. I've gained weight, I eat and drink well every day, and my parents even help take care of the kids. I'm living a very carefree life."
Gu Weizhou didn't believe it and wanted to check.
The temperature suddenly rose.
Ruan Yunxi grabbed the large hand that was lighting the fire and said, "Don't wake the children."
