This time, Dad spent a long time trying to soothe the baby, but he finally managed to calm him down with a McDonald's Fish and Cocktail.
The cub was always hesitant to express his thoughts, cautious, and too adept at reading people's expressions. It was his father's love that gradually taught him to express himself and become bolder.
He can now act like a normal child, throwing tantrums to win his parents' affection, and even pretending to cry a couple of times to get his dad to fly a crispy chicken into his mouth.
The cubs chewed and chewed, and the old house, which had been bustling since morning, finally quieted down for a while.
But it will only last a short while.
Because Qianli's nephews came over. Relationally speaking, they should be considered the cub's cousins.
A low-key yet luxurious supercar drifted and came to a stop at the gate of the old house.
The cub's eyes widened.
This person appears gentlemanly on the surface, but is actually a bit flamboyant on the inside...
Isn't that his brother?
The little guy could tell it was someone he knew just by looking at the familiar face and not seeing the person.
He excitedly pressed his face against the window, straining to look down. The two men who got out of the car, one in a suit and the other in casual, artistic clothes, both strode confidently towards their homes.
The older brother looked up and saw the cub pressed against the window:
"Look, what's that?"
The second brother's hair still completely covered his eyes, making it impossible to see the upper half of his face. He looked up as his brother spoke and met the gaze of the cub upstairs.
"ah!"
The second brother was still terrified of children, and screamed in fright. But the thing that terrified him had already run downstairs and pounced on his thigh.
By the time the cub was firmly clinging to the second brother's leg, the second brother's entire body had already turned pale.
The cub skillfully climbed up by stepping on its second brother's legs, brushed aside his hair, and gave him a quick kiss on the forehead before reaching out to its eldest brother:
"Brother, hug me~"
The eldest brother immediately smiled broadly.
He didn't care about anything else; it was the first time someone had ever called him "brother," so this kid was his!
The cubs nestled in their older brother's arms, tilting their heads back to look at him, a hint of longing in their eyes.
"Brother, you've found me. Thank you for protecting me all this time."
The older brother paused for a moment, then looked at the cub.
What exactly is this feeling of familiarity?
Before the eldest brother could think it through, he saw Qianli come out from inside the door and reach out to take the child back.
The older brother instinctively tightened his arms, reluctant to let go.
It felt like something important was about to be lost.
"Don't steal it..."
Suddenly, a scene flashed before the older brother's eyes: a blond-haired man taking his kid away.
His child is still so young, innocent and adorable...
Why are these people always trying to take his baby away?!
The memories etched into the older brother's DNA have awakened:
"Don't take my baby away!"
Seeing this, the cub quickly kissed its older brother's face a few more times.
If one kiss isn't enough, then two will do.
If two aren't enough, then give each other a few more kisses.
The cub knew all too well how comforting it was to have his family.
The elder brother's anger was interrupted by the cub's kiss, and he looked at the cub in his arms with complicated emotions:
"Baby, are you really back? It's not my imagination...?"
The cub smiled, waved its little hand, and they were pulled out of the dream.
The grown-up Qianyuan stood before them, gazing at her sleeping family members with a beaming smile.
As her father and brothers woke up, Qianyuan lowered her hand that had been supporting her chin and opened her arms to hug her family.
"I'm home."
"Dad, you should say 'Welcome home!'"
As soon as the little guy finished speaking, his father's arms flew over and enveloped him, checking Qian Yuan from head to toe.
A lively, energetic little thing, with its whole body intact.
Qianyuan shivered at the coldness of his father's hand gripping his leg, flinched, and laughed:
"I'm really fine, I've even grown taller."
Upon hearing this, the father released the little guy, picked him up in his hand and stretched him out like he was holding a cat, then used his other arm to gesture the height of himself and Qianyuan.
Compared to her father and brother, Qianyuan was still so small and short.
Dad and his older brother exchanged a glance and shook their heads regretfully.
Seeing this, Qianyuan quickly explained, "Wait, Dad, I meant that I've grown taller than I was before. How could I compare to Dad? Dad's original form was as tall as a small building, right?"
The enormous father patted Qianyuan's head in comfort.
Qianyuan: "...Actually, if you touch my head, I won't grow taller."
Upon hearing this, the father was shocked. After thinking for a moment, he hesitated and touched Qianyuan's ankle a couple more times.
Qianyuan: "Dad, touching your feet won't make you grow taller..."
Dad: "But this doesn't comply with the rules..." Rules usually have a counter-argument, which is why Dad did such a cute thing.
Qianyuan laughed and said, "It's just a legend. I'm shorter, so my dad can hold me all the time, and I'm happy with that too."
The father watched his son chatter away, seemingly not paying attention to what Qian Yuan was saying, his focus was on Qian Yuan's face.
He slowly reached out and gently lifted Qianyuan's face.
In his memory, the grown-up Qianyuan was always weak and pale, tired and fragile, thin like a butterfly struggling on a spider web, with only fleeting beauty.
But now Qianyuan has gained a little weight, his cheeks are rosier, and his eyes are always smiling, filled with longing for his family. His vitality is like a thriving blade of grass, no longer the glass doll that would occasionally fall into a deep sleep.
