Chapter 245 You really don't love me anymore.
He even recalled what Shen Qingshu had said to him before—
[Fu Siyan, you can't even tell if your daughter is throwing a tantrum or just being affectionate.]
So, the daughter is just being affectionate now.
Fu Siyan was unsure.
But he always tries to understand.
This is what he should do as a father.
Looking at his exquisitely beautiful little daughter, Fu Siyan said gently, "Baby, Daddy wants to hug you, is that okay?"
Xiao Anning blinked, confirming that her father really didn't know how to coax children at all!
But it's okay, he's my own dad, I'll teach him myself!
"Daddy, if you want to hug me, you should first tell me I'm cute."
Fu Siyan humbly accepted the advice, "Baby is so cute, can Daddy hold you?"
"OK!"
Xiao Anning generously spread her arms out.
A hint of surprise flashed in Fu Siyan's dark eyes, and he even had a question: 'Is this what they call coaxing?'
He reached out and took his daughter in his arms.
Xiao Anning sat on her father's lap, her little nose twitching. There seemed to be a faint smell of Chinese medicine on her father.
Uncle Jin's traditional Chinese medicine clinic brews medicine for patients every day. This tastes a bit like it, doesn't it?
"Dad, are you taking Chinese medicine?"
Fu Siyan was surprised by the little girl's keen sense of smell. He remained calm and made up a lie on the spot, "Daddy has pharyngitis and is taking Chinese medicine to treat it."
"Oh." Xiao Anning knew it was normal to take medicine when sick, so she didn't think much of it. Her eyes darted around, and she asked again, "Dad, can you take me to kindergarten on Monday?"
Fu Siyan was somewhat surprised, "Why do you suddenly want Dad to take you to kindergarten?"
"Because Xiaohua's dad takes her to kindergarten every day. I'm not envious of her, I just told her that my dad is more handsome than her dad, but she didn't believe me and said that I don't even have a dad!"
Fu Siyan pursed his lips, remained silent for a moment, and then asked, "Doesn't your godfather often give you gifts?"
"Yes, but a godfather is a godfather and a father is a father. We kindergarten kids can tell the difference!"
Fu Siyan: "..."
"Daddy, please!"
Fu Siyan knew very well that this was not the right time to take the child to places that were too public.
Having two days of family time on the weekend is already a rare treat.
He can no longer have any delusions.
"Dad's been quite busy lately, he's only available on weekends." Fu Siyan looked at Xiao Anning. "Sweetie, wait a little longer. Once Dad's less busy, he'll definitely take you to kindergarten himself, okay?"
Although Xiao Anning was somewhat disappointed, she did not make a scene.
She knew that adults all had their own work to do.
"I'm a reasonable and good baby!" Xiao Anning comforted herself. "Daddy is busy with work, I can wait, but Daddy, you can't forget that I'm in kindergarten for three years, you can't make me wait for more than three years!"
Fu Siyan's heart softened, and his nose tingled with a slight soreness.
With such a sensible daughter, what has he done to deserve this?
The man lowered his head and kissed the top of his daughter's head.
"Okay, Daddy won't keep you waiting too long, baby."
At this moment, Zhang Yun came out carrying Xiao Nian'an, who had just taken a bath.
"Mr. Fu."
Zhang Yun put Xiao Nian down on the bed.
Fu Siyan said calmly, "Thank you for your hard work. Go and get some rest. I'll take care of them tonight."
Zhang Yun couldn't bear to disturb their precious time together.
"Okay, please let me know if you need anything."
After Zhang Yun left, Fu Siyan looked at his two children and felt a warmth in his heart.
What stories would you like to hear tonight?
Little Anning raised her hand, "I want to hear fairy tales!"
Fu Siyan looked at Xiao Nian'an, "Where is Nian'an?"
"Xiao Anning doesn't listen to her dad read stories very often, so why don't you read the ones she likes?"
Fu Siyan patted his son's head with satisfaction, "Good boy, you know how to take care of your sister."
Little Anning pouted, unconvinced, "I'm the older sister!"
Xiao Nian'an and Fu Siyan looked at each other, smiled, and did not argue with the little girl.
“Yes, our little Anning is the older sister.” Fu Siyan coaxed her daughter, “From now on, Nian’an must listen to her older sister and protect her.”
"I will!" Xiao Nian'an's face was very serious. Perhaps because she had lived with Fu Siyan for a while, Xiao Nian'an's expression had become more and more like Fu Siyan's recently.
Xiao Anning retorted, "Xiao Nian'an is timid, but I'm brave! I'll protect Xiao Nian'an!"
Fu Siyan chuckled, "Alright, you protect Xiao Nian'an."
Xiao Anning asked again, "Dad, can Xiao Nian'an go to the same kindergarten as me? That way I can see Xiao Nian'an all the time, and I can protect him if he gets bullied by other children!"
She's a bit of a chatterbox, saying whatever comes to mind.
Although Fu Siyan enjoyed this time with her children, she didn't forget that it was time for the children to go to sleep.
“There will be other opportunities in the future.” Fu Siyan rubbed his daughter’s head. “Now we should go to sleep. I’ll go find a storybook. You two lie down quietly.”
Okay~
Xiao Anning nodded, turned over, and found a place to lie down.
Xiao Nian'an also lay down.
Fu Siyan went to the study to get a book and returned to find the two little ones lying obediently on the bed.
There was a space between the two dumplings, just enough for him to lie down.
Fu Siyan smiled, took off his shoes, and half-reclined between the two children.
The two little ones rolled over in unison, placing their tiny hands and feet on his thighs.
With my eyes closed, I was already prepared to wait for him to lull me to sleep.
Fu Siyan's eyes welled up with tears. He opened the storybook, his Adam's apple bobbed a few times, and suppressing his emotions, he slowly began to speak—
"Once upon a time, in a remote primeval forest, lived two silly little rabbit sisters..."
…
It was late at night, and Shen Qingshu tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
As expected, she was destined to suffer from insomnia on nights without Xiao Anning by her side.
The psychologist said this was her own problem, and she had to overcome it herself.
The sleeping pills were in the bedside drawer; she only needed to take one, and she wouldn't have to stay up all night.
She wavered countless times, and then gave up the idea countless times.
Finally, at one in the morning, she couldn't stay awake any longer, sat up, turned on the bedside lamp, and opened the drawer—
Knock knock.
Someone was knocking on the door.
Calmly relieved.
"Ah Shu, are you asleep?"
It's Qiao Xingjia.
Shen Qingshu closed the drawer and got up to open the door.
Qiao Xingjia looked at her and said, "You're still awake."
Shen Qingshu was slightly taken aback, then smiled helplessly, "You understand me best."
"Nonsense, I'm your sister! If I don't know you, who does?" Qiao Xingjia glared at her, then sighed, "This is the first time Xiao Anning has spent the night at Dad's place. You must be uncomfortable. I'll stay with you tonight."
Shen Qingshu frowned slightly, "If you come to stay with me, what will happen to Xiaoxingchen?"
"I just fed him. He usually won't wake up at night after eating around this time. He won't wake up until around six o'clock the next day, then I'll go over there."
"No, that will disturb your rest. I'm fine, you go back and be with the children."
"Ah Shu!" Qiao Xingjia glared at him. "I'm not the kind of person who would abandon my sisters just because I have a son! I don't care, I'm going to sleep with you tonight! But you, I abandoned my husband and child to come and be with you, and you still refuse me? You really don't love me anymore!"
Shen Qingshu: "...Don't talk nonsense, Dr. Qin will get jealous if he hears you."
"He wouldn't dare!" Qiao Xingjia sneered. "I said I was coming to keep you company, and he didn't dare utter a single word!"
Shen Qingshu really couldn't do anything about Qiao Xingjia.
The two went into the room and lay down on the bed together.
The nightlight was on, and the dimly lit room was very quiet.
Neither of them felt sleepy.
Qiao Xingjia asked her, "A-Shu, you'll be staying in Beicheng from now on, right?"
