Chapter 218 Extra Four (End)
Extra Four (End)
Back in the small courtyard, Mr. Jiang finally realized his dream of taking a DSLR photo, but he didn't take any pictures of birds, and the models became two little babies.
He filmed the two children playing with toys, eating snacks, and even more so when they hugged his thighs, one on each side. Gu Jiangkuo tried several times to assert his presence, but each time failed. He could only stand aside, spatula in hand, looking resentful and mute.
[Mr. Gu was ignored, hahahahahaha]
[Mr. Gu: Honey, do you love me or our child more?]
[They really look like a family of four! Let's adopt them! So sweet!]
How many times have I told you not to use moral kidnapping?
I think Mr. Jiang really likes these two children and treats them differently.
Jiang Nuo himself was amazed at his own patience. He watched the two children play until dark without realizing it. That night, Mr. Gu prepared a sumptuous dinner as usual. Dabao and Xiaobao were very sensible and had no problem eating by themselves without being fed. It was the bathing session before bed that troubled Mr. Jiang. It didn't matter if Xiaobao was a boy, but Dabao was a girl. Not to mention that children around three years old already have gender concepts, even their biological parents have to pay attention to it, not to mention that they are not even adoptive fathers now.
So, in the end, I asked the female staff to help Dabao take a bath.
Xiaobao was bathed by both Jiang and Gu—or rather, by Gu alone. Jiang, who had never done housework since he was born, failed to give Xiaobao a bath. Instead, the excited Xiaobao splashed him with water, soaking most of his clothes.
But Jiang Nuo was not angry at all. After just one day of getting along, Xiaobao became familiar with him, which made Jiang feel that this was a fate given by heaven.
Mr. Gu was naturally not angry, because... Mr. Jiang, who was wet, played with him for a long time.
When I returned to the bedroom, both children were already asleep.
The twins sleeping on the bed looked incredibly sweet, their chubby little faces rising and falling with their breathing, their long eyelashes drooping. They looked both well-behaved and adorable. Jiang Nuo couldn't let go of them, but was afraid to wake them up, so she whispered, "They really do look a bit like me."
Gu Jiangkuo thought to himself: My wife has really fallen for him.
He agreed: "I'll tell you what I'm saying."
Jiang Nuo took another closer look and said, "He looks a bit like you, with such a high nose bridge."
Gu Jiangkuo was at a loss for words, wanting to say, "This isn't our child," but ultimately failed to spoil Mr. Jiang's fun. However, Mr. Jiang was reluctant to leave, and said thoughtfully, "Wouldn't the child be scared sleeping alone? How about we both sleep here too?"
Mr. Gu: “?”
Mr. Gu couldn't tolerate this.
"This bed is too small," Gu Jiangkuo said righteously, "It's too crowded. If I roll over, I can crush them to death. Just think about it, how much do I weigh?"
Jiang Nuo: “…Yes.”
Gu Jiangkuo put his arm around his wife's waist, pushed her out of the children's bedroom, and returned to his own bedroom to continue brainwashing her: "Even after the two children return to Yanlin with us, they can't sleep together. They are three years old and can go to kindergarten! If you tell others that they are sleeping with their fathers, they will be laughed at by the children!"
Jiang Nuo: "Ah? Really?"
Jiang Nuo lost her biological mother when she was four years old. Her childhood memories have long been vague, and she has no "best friends" who are mothers. She lacks common sense in parenting and is easily fooled.
Gu Jiangkuo then continued to deceive: "We can hire two reliable nannies for them... I think Aunt Mei is suitable. She has worked in our family for so many years and knows us well."
Jiang Nuo: "That's right...wait, haven't we decided yet?"
Gu Jiangkuo: "I meant 'if'."
Jiang Nuo said cautiously: "Yes, this is a major event in life, we can't be careless. If we really adopt a child, we will be responsible for him for his whole life."
As Jiang Nuo took off his T-shirt and shorts and changed into his pajamas, he added, "It's not enough to just hire a nanny. We also have to prepare a toy house. I had one when I was a child."
Gu Jiangkuo laughed and couldn't help but rub his lover's head. "You said you haven't decided yet. If you like them, then just make a decision. What's the point of getting along or not? Relationships are built through adjustment. Besides, they are still so young. If you want to train an heir, isn't it a good idea to start from childhood?"
Jiang Nuo struggled out of Gu Jiangkuo's big hand and shook his head like a little animal, "Oh."
Gu Jiangkuo couldn't help but grab the person and kissed him, "You still act like a child, yet you still have to raise a child."
Jiang Nuo held his chin with her hand, like a cat refusing to be scooped up by its owner, and warned: "Didn't we just do it in the bathroom? Don't move. You have to get up early tomorrow."
"?" Gu Jiangkuo, "We're still recording a show tomorrow, and the live broadcast is scheduled to start at 8 or 9 o'clock. Why are we getting up so early?"
Jiang Nuo took Gu Jiangkuo's arm and used it as a pillow expertly. He then pulled up the quilt and covered himself with it. "I'm going to visit Dabao and Xiaobao tomorrow morning. I plan to climb onto their beds before they wake up. This will create a warm atmosphere where they can see their parents as soon as they open their eyes."
Gu Jiangkuo: “…………”
Gu Jiangkuo: I feel like I’m gradually falling out of favor.jpg.
.
The next morning, Mr. Jiang was awakened by the alarm clock. He quickly got out of bed, put on his clothes and left.
Gu Jiangkuo yawned and got up, but President Jiang waved him off hastily: "You go to sleep! I'll go check on the kids."
"Let's go together." Gu Jiangkuo didn't want to sleep alone, so he followed.
Dabao and Xiaobao were sleeping soundly. They didn't wake up even when they heard the noise. They just hummed and smacked their chubby little lips. Jiang Nuo then tiptoed onto the bed and looked at the two children with his chin in his hand, his affection overflowing with words. At this time, the photographer, who had obtained their consent, also followed in.
[Mr. Jiang’s eyes are like the first time I saw my kitten!!]
[The little baby is so cute ahhhhhh]
[I think Mr. Jiang is cuter when he looks at them with his butt sticking out, hahahaha]
[Nuonuo is really full of youthfulness]
[I want to rub Mr. Jiang and my two little babies]
[Why does it seem like Mr. Gu is so lost? Hahahahahahahahaha, has he fallen out of favor? ]
[Mr. Gu is clearly looking at the baby with Nuonuo! ]
[Srds, Mr. Gu’s expression is sour, hahahaha]
I don't know how long they waited, but the two little kids finally woke up. First, Dabao pulled the quilt and turned over, then with sleepy eyes, he buried his head in Gu Jiangkuo's palm on the bed.
Gu Jiangkuo: “!!”
[Ah ...
【So cute!!!】
Jiang Nuo also cast an envious look at Gu Jiangkuo, and was eager to let Dabao lie on his hand, and was about to say the word "envious". But at this time, Xiaobao also made a sound in his sleep and rubbed against Jiang Nuo!
Jiang Nuo: “!!!”
[Mr. Jiang's inner monologue at this moment: Lie on my hands, quickly!]
[Hahahaha Mr. Jiang is envious like crazy]
Xiao Bao didn't rest his face on Jiang Nuo's hand. Instead, he rubbed his eyes with his small, fleshy hands, dazedly grasped Jiang Nuo's fingers, and muttered, "Dad?"
Jiang Nuo: “!!!”
Gu Jiangkuo: “!!!”
Comments:
【!!!!!!】
【Is Xiaobao missing his parents? 】
Dabao and Xiaobao really look a bit like Mr. Jiang. Luckily, I asked about Dabao and Xiaobao's backgrounds beforehand, otherwise Mr. Jiang wouldn't be able to explain it clearly, hahahaha.
Then he heard Xiaobao mumbling indistinctly, "Dad, are you... back to pick us up? Grandpa said... he went to look for you... he found you, didn't he?"
Jiang Nuo didn't know how to answer, when he saw Xiaobao whimpering and holding his hand, calling "Dad" again, and fell asleep again.
Dabao also rested his face on Gu Jiangkuo's palm and fell asleep again.
Jiang Nuo: “…”
Gu Jiangkuo: “…”
Jiang Nuo silently mouthed to Gu Jiangkuo, "He calls me dad."
[Both presidents must be heartbroken! ]
【Who can bear this? 】
Jiang Nuo and Gu Jiangkuo actually let the two little kids hold them and slept for nearly half an hour. When the children woke up, Jiang Nuo found that his hands were a little numb.
Gu Jiangkuo hurried to rub his hands, but Jiang Nuo ordered: "Dress Dabao and Xiaobao first."
However, the two children were surprisingly self-care capable and did not need any help from adults at all - they did not have pajamas, but only wore vests and small underwear to sleep. After getting up, they just had to put on shorts and jackets.
Not only can he dress himself, but he can also do things like wash his face and brush his teeth by himself. He is only three years old, which makes Jiang Nuo feel both sad and relieved.
The two hens that Gai Sao sent yesterday were very promising, laying two eggs in a row. The director encouraged Dabao and Xiaobao to go and pick up the eggs from behind the camera. However, the hens were very aggressive. Xiaobao was a bit timid and was too scared to move forward. He looked desperately to Jiang Nuo for help. Jiang Nuo didn't know what he was thinking, so he blurted out, "Do you remember what you called me this morning?"
Xiaobao was confused and asked in a baby voice, "What?"
"..." When the words came to his lips, Jiang Nuo felt a little embarrassed to say it out loud.
The director started to cheer: "Call him daddy! Xiaobao, if you call him daddy, he will help you."
Jiang Nuo: “…………”
Xiaobao blinked his eyes in confusion but said nothing. At this time, Dabao put his hands on his hips and yelled at the director in a baby voice, "Don't lie to children!"
Dabao and Xiaobao were orphans. Although the villagers took turns raising them and feeding them food from many families, there were always some troublemakers when there were too many people. People often teased them to call him "Dad". If they did so obediently, they would be laughed at by the adults without exception.
Dabao hates adults doing this.
Unfortunately, Xiaobao is stupid and can’t react in time, so he always suffers losses.
Sure enough, this time, Xiaobao sucked his finger and then obediently called to Jiang Nuo, "Daddy."
Dabao covered his face with his little fleshy hands, cursing his silly brother in his heart, waiting for the adults to laugh at him and tease him.
However, nothing happened. The handsome uncle just said "Hey" and agreed, then stretched out his hand to Xiaobao: "Since you call me dad, come home with me in the future, okay?"
Dabao: “???”
Xiaobao stood there in a daze for a while, then turned to look at his sister.
Dabao shook his head at him.
But this time Xiaobao didn't listen to her. He rushed to Jiang Nuo with his short legs, opened his short arms, and responded to Jiang Nuo's hug.
The handsome uncle probably didn't exercise often, so he wasn't as strong as those uncles in the village who did manual labor. It was a little difficult for him to hold Xiaobao, but his arms were very steady.
The uncle held Xiaobao in his arms and said, "I'll adopt you from now on. We'll be real father and son. Come home with me, okay?"
Dabao didn't quite understand what "adoption" meant, but he seemed to understand what the handsome uncle meant. Looking at his younger brother being picked up, he couldn't help but feel envious.
At this moment, Dabao felt his body lighten and he fell into a stronger and taller embrace.
Mr. Gu held the little girl in his arms and shook her up and down, "Daughter, can you call me daddy too?"
[Ah ...
[Wow, this is the best reality show I have ever seen! ! ! ! !]
[Please ask the program team to give out rewards! ! ! !]
I was moved to tears watching this livestream and witnessing this scene! Dabao and Xiaobao, you finally have a home.
["Poor little brother and sister become wealthy young masters and young ladies" What kind of idol drama plot is this! ]
[I'm an employee of the Jiang Group. Yes, it's me again. I can't hold it in any longer. I've heard that the two big bosses wanted to adopt a child, and today their wish finally came true. Congratulations to the bosses!]
So it's a happy ending?
【Sprinkle flowers, sprinkle flowers, sprinkle flowers! ! ! ! 】
.
postscript.
Another seven years later, at Jiang's house.
Jiang Xiaobao was scowling over her winter vacation homework. Gu Dabao, holding a magic wand her father had bought her from an amusement park, used it as a ruler, sternly supervising her: "No slacking off! Daddy said you can't lose focus until you finish your homework!"
Jiang Xiaobao was so angry he dared not say anything. He could only pout and sob while looking at his homework book. Fortunately, the doorbell rang at this moment. Soon, the sound of a door opening downstairs was heard, along with a familiar and friendly male voice: "Gu Dabao! Jiang Xiaobao? Are you home? Second uncle is here!"
It was the voice of my second uncle Jiang Su, also known as Jiang Xiaomi.
"Second Uncle!" Jiang Xiaobao jumped up, like a monkey, and jumped down from the upstairs, throwing himself into Jiang Su's arms. "Second Uncle, you came at the right time! My sister forced me to do my homework. It's so scary to have a sister who is a top student. QAQ"
Jiang Xiaomi empathized with her nephew and hugged him: "Good boy, don't cry. Second uncle knows how it feels. Your dad crushed me like this when he was a kid. QAQ"
Rong Yi, who was standing by, finally couldn't stand it anymore and forcibly tore Jiang Xiaobao out of his lover's arms, "Jiang Xiaobao, you are ten years old! Why are you still acting like a spoiled child?"
As a result, Jiang Xiaobao, like a little brat, made a face at Rong Yi: "Second Aunt is jealous again! You are jealous of a ten-year-old child! You are more jealous than my dad!" After that, he ran away like a monkey without a trace.
Rong Yi: “…” What a naughty kid!
At this time, Gu Dabao caught up and greeted Rong Yi and his second uncle Jiang Xiaomi very politely.
Rong Yi couldn't help but sigh, "They're both twins, but Gu Dabao is so sensible! And he's also a top student! He won the top three in the city again this year, right? I heard you won a prize in the Olympiad, too."
Ten-year-old Gu Dabao was in the transitional stage between a little brat and a young girl. Although the baby fat on her face hadn't faded, she was still much more mature than the silly Jiang Xiaobao. She said proudly and reservedly, "Yes, but I only won the silver medal in the Olympiad."
Although his tone was regretful, the words "Come and praise me" were written all over his little face.
Rong Yi said politely, "A silver medal is pretty good! You're only in the third grade, and the Olympiad is for fourth graders! I heard your composition also won a prize? Show it to the uncles."
While Gu Dabao went upstairs to get his composition, Jiang Xiaomi and his nephew Jiang Xiaobao had already slipped into the kitchen to help Aunt Mei with the mess.
The two underachieving students had a lot in common. Jiang Xiaomi, not acting like an adult, whispered to her ten-year-old nephew, "How did you do on the final exam? Did you pass? Did your dads beat you up?"
"Of course I passed!" Jiang Xiaobao said with a frown, "But I also got beaten up. QAQ They always compare me to my sister. Gu Dabao is not a normal human being. How can I compare to her? QAQ"
"Oh, forget it," Jiang Xiaomi comforted her nephew. "Your dad has high hopes for you. He hopes you'll be able to succeed and take over the Jiang Group in the future... Your dad gambled three times on the succession issue and lost twice. The first time was with me, and the second time was with you. ... So, you have to thank your sister. If it weren't for Gu Dabao's support, you would have been expecting tutoring classes every day."
Jiang Xiaobao shuddered, but quickly cheered up: "My sister will definitely be fine. She will definitely be a strong woman when she grows up. Let me tell you a secret, I peeked at her composition book, and her wish is to fulfill Dad's wish and carry on the Jiang family's prosperity."
"Oh? What's your wish?"
"Me..." Jiang Xiaobao scratched his head and said weakly, "Uncle, I want to learn how to drive."
"?" Jiang Xiaomi, "Is this considered an ambition?"
Jiang Xiaobao said seriously: "If I learn to drive, I can take my dads to the hospital when they get old. Otherwise, when they get old and Uncle Liu the driver gets old too, who will take care of them?"
"..." Jiang Xiaomi was amused, but couldn't help but rub Jiang Xiaobao's head fiercely, "My brother really has a good eye for talent. Both of you are filial and good children. - Xiaobao, your academic performance is a little poor, but I think you are no worse than Gu Dabao."
When talking about his grades, Jiang Xiaobao was filled with sadness: "I haven't finished my homework yet and my dad is coming back. Woohoo! QAQ"
"It's okay, Uncle Er will take care of it for you. Let's have hot pot tonight and then write after we finish eating."
Speak of the devil, the door opens again. Aunt Mei wipes her hands with her apron and runs out to open the door. She sees Jiang Nuo coming in, wrapped in cold air, with a few snowflakes on his head.
The tall man followed behind, carefully flicking the snow off his head.
After so many years, time has not left too many traces on the two of them. Mr. Jiang is still the pampered and refined man, and Gu Jiangkuo still takes care of Young Master Jiang as attentively as he did when he was a bodyguard.
Rong Yi was the first to smile and say, "Brother, Brother Gu, you're back?" He shook the certificate and composition paper in his hands and said, "Gu Dabao's award-winning composition has just been handed down. It's really well written. Have you seen it?"
"What? The composition has been handed out?" Jiang Nuo was very interested and praised with a smile on his face, "Dabao is great. If you want any reward, just tell Daddy. ... Let me see the composition now!"
Gu Jiangkuo was still chasing him from behind: "Don't move! The snow on your head hasn't been cleaned yet, you'll catch a cold soon."
"Tsk, my dad is showing off his love again." Jiang Xiaobao, who was standing at the kitchen door and didn't dare to go forward because he hadn't finished his homework, complained in a low voice.
However, there must be telepathy between father and son. Jiang Nuo happened to look over and when he met Jiang Xiaobao's gaze, his face fell and he scowled coldly: "Why did you go to the kitchen? Have you finished your homework?"
Jiang Xiaobao: "!"
His second uncle Jiang Xiaomi: “!”
Jiang Xiaobao shrank back behind his uncle, and his uncle, who had vowed to support him, was inexplicably a little timid at this moment - there was no way, the scene of asking "Have you finished your homework?" looked so familiar! After all, this was how his brother dealt with Jiang Xiaomi when he was in high school!
Jiang Nuo: “Heh.”
However, Mr. Jiang didn't get angry in the end. Forget it, the New Year is coming soon. Don't hit the child during the New Year.
So, the whole family sat around the sofa happily to watch Gu Dabao's award-winning composition. Aunt Mei brought a few nannies to prepare the ingredients and base for the hot pot in the kitchen and dining room. The aroma wafted over, making people's mouths whet.
Jiang Xiaobao's stomach growled with greed. However, his father, Jiang Nuo, kept praising Gu Dabao's composition with several adults. Jiang Xiaobao couldn't help it and threw himself into Jiang Nuo's arms, whining, "Dad, I'm hungry! When is dinner?"
"..." Jiang Nuo was so angry that he raised his hand to hit her, "Why do you only know how to eat?"
Jiang Xiaobao shrank his neck and closed his big eyes, like a kitten.
Gu Jiangkuo quickly stopped her: "Nuonuo, it's New Year's Day, don't be angry, the children must be hungry too, right? - Aunt Mei! Is dinner ready?"
"Okay! We can have dinner anytime!" Aunt Mei replied.
Gu Jiangkuo winked at Jiang Xiaobao: "Let's go eat!"
Jiang Xiaobao chuckled, mouthed "Thank you, Daddy," and then scurried off. Gu Dabao shook his head like a grown-up at his brother's back and sauntered after him. Jiang Xiaomi also joined in the fun, pulling Rong Yi along and saying, "Let's go, let's eat!"
Only Jiang Nuo and Gu Jiangkuo were left, still sitting on the sofa.
Jiang Nuo complained, "Why do you always protect Jiang Xiaobao? This kid is too naughty, I can't just ignore him!"
Gu Jiangkuo actually wanted to say: Jiang Xiaobao is becoming more and more like you, in his movements and demeanor. This made him feel a little bit attached to him and reluctant to hit him.
But of course he couldn't bring himself to say such a far-fetched reason, as it would affect his image as a great father. So, Gu Jiangkuo brought out that all-purpose excuse: "Well, it's New Year's Day."
At this time, the snow outside the window was even heavier, falling like goose feathers, making the house seem even warmer. The gurgling hot pot and the laughter of relatives and children made people feel at ease and happy.
Jiang Nuo looked at the joyful scene in the restaurant, then looked at his lover beside him. He couldn't feel angry at all, and only felt happy.
"Let's go, Dajiang," Jiang Nuo patted his lover's legs, "Let's go eat too."
