The little guy nodded his head.
Xi Ran was very worried. Chu Jiangyi just carried Chu Xuan on his neck, chatting every now and then, not even looking at the road, and glancing at her from time to time. Xi Ran was on edge the whole time.
That's too dangerous!
In case there are stones or pedestrians on the other side.
It's terrifying to think about.
Her daughter is so young, she can't afford to gamble.
"Xuanxuan! Come here! Mommy will lift you down."
The little guy shook his head like a rattle-drum, "No, no, I don't want to get off, I want to ride a big horse..."
Xi Ran was speechless, looking at Chu Jiangyi with pleading eyes.
"Put Xiaoxuan down quickly. It's really dangerous for you to walk on the road like this. Let's go home and play together."
"OK!"
Chu Jiang didn't argue. It was really dangerous to carry Xuanxuan on the road like that, so he quickly picked up his daughter and put her down.
Chu Xuan looked aggrieved, her little mouth pouting high.
She shook her head in protest, "No, no, I want to ride a big horse... I haven't had enough fun yet."
Chu Jiang also patiently coaxed his daughter Chu Xuan and reasoned with her.
"Let's go home and play horseback riding again. Not only will Daddy be our horse, but Grandpa will be ours too. We'll make sure Xuanxuan has a great time, okay?"
Although Chu Xuan was unwilling, she glanced at her mother's displeased expression and finally nodded her little head.
"Okay, let's play again when we get home."
Xi Ran immediately changed her expression and laughed, "That's a good girl. Go home and continue playing. It's too dangerous and unsafe to ride a horse on the side of the road. Do you know what Mommy means?"
Chu Xuan's childish voice rang out, "I know!"
"So good! You're such a sweetheart."
Looking at his daughter's rosy and adorable appearance, Chu Jiangyi hugged her and kissed her several times.
His daughter is so well-behaved and adorable.
Chu Xuan protested, pushing Chu Jiangyi's face away, "Dad's beard is so prickly."
Chu Jiang was also embarrassed, realizing he had forgotten about this matter.
He had just gotten back, hadn't washed up or shaved, and missed Xi Ran so much that he grabbed Chu Xuan and ran off.
His parents couldn't catch up with him.
Chu Jiangyi was still a little jealous. He, Old Chu, was usually so busy, especially since little Xuanxuan came into the family.
It's unbelievable that Lao Chu can leave work and go home on time.
My parents don't go out all the time; they don't enjoy time alone together. Their eyes and hearts are only for Xuanxuan.
No wonder Xiaoxuan is so close to her grandparents; there's a reason for it.
The best way to cultivate a relationship is through spending time together, and he, as a father, has done far too little of that.
It seems I'll have to slow down my pace in the future.
Otherwise, his daughter wouldn't even recognize him.
He couldn't bear to part with such a lovely daughter.
Recalling what had just happened, Chu Jiangyi was filled with embarrassment. Looking at her lovely daughter, she pulled her outside to pick up her mother from get off work, without bothering to tidy herself up properly.
Everyone looks very disheveled now.
"Dad, would you like to shave when you get home?"
Chu Xuan clapped her hands, "Okay, okay!"
The interaction between the father and daughter amused Xi Ran. The two had not seen each other for more than half a year, but Xuanxuan had not forgotten Chu Jiangyi. This was thanks to the fact that no matter how busy or tired Chu Jiangyi was, he would take an hour every day to video chat with little Xuanxuan.
Chu Xuan was not unfamiliar with Chu Jiangyi.
very nice!
Unlike those whose mothers have been gone for half a year and who can't even remember what their fathers look like.
The two chatted away, and when they noticed she hadn't followed, they stopped and waited for her.
"Mom, hurry up! We're going home for dinner."
"They're here!"
Xi Ran caught up with the father and daughter with cheerful steps.
"Mom, hurry up, or you'll fall behind again."
"Okay! Mom won't fall behind."
Chu Xuan nodded excitedly.
The couple chatted casually along the way, with Chu Xuan occasionally chiming in.
Chu Jiangyi suddenly asked Xi Yan, who was studying in Beijing, "Xi Yan should be graduating this year, right? Has he decided which city he wants to develop his career in?"
"Back to G City!"
Chu Jiang also didn't expect Xi Yan to choose to return to G City, when staying in Beijing would have offered a better future.
"Has he made up his mind?"
Xi Ran nodded. She was largely the reason why Xi Yan returned to G City to develop his career.
Chu Xuan nodded her little head and echoed, "Uncle has thought it through. He said he'll be back tomorrow, and then I can see him sweetly. He promised me that he would stay with Xuanxuan forever and never leave again."
A bittersweet feeling welled up in Chu Jiang's heart. When did his daughter ever need her uncle's constant companionship?
Does he not exist?
He was my dearest father.
No one can compare to her.
Chu Jiangyi felt a pang of jealousy. "Does Xuanxuan often video chat with her uncle?"
Chu Xuan nodded.
“Yes, yes, whenever Xuanxuan calls, her uncle will answer, but it’s different with her dad. He often hangs up on my video calls, which makes Xuanxuan very sad. But her mom said that her dad is working to earn money to buy Xuanxuan pretty clothes and fun toys, and that all of these require her dad’s money. So she told me not to bother her dad when he’s working.”
Chu Jiang felt a lump in his throat. There was nothing he could do about it. During filming, he had no time to answer any video calls. He could only focus on filming and could only arrange to video call his daughter between 6 and 7 pm.
His daughter did as he was told, but he didn't realize that doing so would hurt his lovely daughter.
Since he made an appointment with Xuanxuan, his phone has been much quieter.
