A week passed quickly, and little Jinqiuqiu was completely different from a week ago!
Helian Jue, who was making lunch in the kitchen, heard the "tap tap tap" of footsteps and knew that Qiao You was coming.
"elder brother!"
Helian Jue knew without even guessing that it must have been Jin Qiuqiu who angered Xiaoyu, after all, he had dealt with such things several times in the past few days.
When Helian Jue first saw Jin Qiuqiu, he thought the child's personality must be very similar to Xiaoyu's—kind, innocent, and cute. But after getting to know her over the past few days, he had to admit that Jin Qiuqiu had nothing to do with those three words.
Jin Qiuqiu's personality is actually somewhat similar to his when he was a child: mischievous, unruly, and no one could control him.
Qiao You felt wronged and opened her arms to Helian Jue, wanting a hug: "Brother, Jin Qiuqiu spat at me."
"He's really going too far."
"I don't want to like him anymore."
What a naughty kid! Qiao You thought to himself.
Knowing that his little fish was upset, Helian Jue hugged her and comforted her softly.
The feeling of being wronged gradually dissipated under Helian Jue's comforting words. Qiao You muttered, "Jin Qiuqiu is our little one, and I'm the little daddy. I'll continue to love him."
Helian Jue praised, "Baby, you're so great!"
"He is the most forgiving father in the entire galaxy."
...
Qiao You felt a little embarrassed by the praise and hid in Helian Jue's arms.
Ten minutes later, Helian Jue carried two bowls of fish porridge and walked together towards Jin Qiuqiu's bedroom.
Qiao You was still angry. He sat on the table in front of his bed, eating the fish porridge that his brother had specially made for him, deliberately ignoring Jin Qiuqiu.
Helian Jue cut a small piece of apple for Jin Qiuqiu and let him lick it slowly.
Seeing Helian Jue approaching, Jin Qiuqiu crawled towards him, revealing a particularly bright smile and making "ba ba ba" sounds, while its little hands tugged at the toys on the bed.
Upon seeing the apple, the toy was immediately thrown aside, and the child lay on the crib happily licking it.
Qiao You snorted, "Brother, he's quite the actor!"
"He's a little devil!"
Helian Jue placed a piece of fish from the bowl onto Qiao You's plate, saying, "Eat your food obediently."
After finishing his meal, Helian Jue took his bowl and went into the kitchen.
Qiao You was alone in Jin Qiuqiu's bedroom when he couldn't help but walk over. He thought to himself, "This is my child. Should I take another look?"
This time, perhaps Jin Qiuqiu knew her little dad was angry, so she didn't bully Qiao You and tried her best to play with him.
When Helian Jue came over, he saw the father and son having a great time.
In Helian Jue's opinion, Jinqiu was too clever; he knew Qiao You had no temper, so he deliberately bullied him.
"Brother, come help me quickly!"
Golden Ball is already sitting on Qiao You's belly. In just one week, the baby's weight has increased exponentially at the speed of a rolling ball. It's so heavy!
Helian Jue walked over with a smile, picked up the golden ball, and used it to rescue the little fish.
Jinqiu was very excited as her dad lifted her high; it was the first time she had played like this.
Qiao You stood up, ran her fingers through her hair, and exclaimed, "Brother! Me too!"
Seeing the golden ball being lifted high, Qiao You wanted to play like that too.
So, Qiao You held Jin Qiuqiu, and Helian Jue held Qiao You in his arms. The three of them were very happy.
Just then, the doorbell rang, and Dora was moving towards the front door.
"Who is it?" Qiao You and Jin Qiuqiu's faces were flushed, and their foreheads were sweating.
He Jue had already guessed who the newcomer was, "It should be my mother."
Qiao You shoved the golden ball into Helian Jue's arms, "I'll go open the door!"
After saying that, she ran downstairs. Helian Jue could only see Xiaoyu's back. "Slow down! Don't fall."
"Let's go see Grandma." Helian Jue, carrying the golden ball in one arm, also walked downstairs.
As soon as Helian Jue arrived on the first floor, he heard his little fish complaining, mostly about Jin Qiuqiu being naughty.
Su Shu knew Qiao You's personality very well; he was like a child who hadn't grown up and needed to be coaxed.
"Jinqiuqiu, this is Grandma." Qiao You introduced her to his son with the air of a father.
It was Su Shu's first time seeing the child, and her heart melted. Looking at the fair-skinned, chubby baby in Helian Jue's arms, she thought, "He's so good-looking."
Jin Qiuqiu was taken by Su Shu. She blinked her big eyes and saw her familiar fathers standing beside her. Feeling a little relieved, she didn't make a fuss and stayed quietly in her grandmother's arms.
"That's wonderful! That's wonderful!" Tears welled up in Su Shu's eyes.
Qiao You reached out and wiped away Su Shu's tears. "Mom, why are you crying?"
Su Shu said repeatedly, "I'm happy."
Qiao You and Helian Jue exchanged a glance, reached a consensus, and stood silently.
At first, Jin Qiuqiu was not familiar with Su Shu and was quite well-behaved, but after they became familiar, she started to be naughty!
This was the third time in one afternoon that the personal terminal had been taken away. The ring on Su Shu's hand was now firmly in Jin Qiuqiu's grasp, and she couldn't get it back no matter what she did. If anyone tried to take it by force, they would start verbally attacking her, which infuriated Qiao You.
"Brother, Jinqiuqiu is so disobedient." Qiao You commented on his son with a stern face.
Helian Jue remained silent, but a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.
Su Shu didn't miss the hint of guilt in her son's eyes and directly revealed the truth, "Jin Qiuqiu's personality is just like Jue'er's."
Qiao You couldn't believe it. "Huh?"
Su Shu affirmed, "It's exactly the same as Jue'er's domineering personality when she was little."
Qiao You looked on incredulously.
His father and mother said that he had been obedient since he was a child and was a well-known good boy among the merfolk. Everyone who saw him would praise him. However... as he grew up, he became a little playful.
He said that the reason why Jin Qiuqiu was so naughty was because she took after her older brother!
Helian Jue coughed awkwardly twice, then slipped into the kitchen under the pretext of washing fruit for Xiaoyu.
This was the first time Qiao You had seen Helian Jue like this, and he burst into laughter. Su Shu couldn't help but laugh too, since Jue'er had become serious and unsmiling after growing up.
Seeing her father and grandmother laughing, Jinqiuqiu, who didn't understand anything, also started laughing.
Laughter drifted from the living room into the kitchen. Helian Jue looked embarrassed. Although his facial expression hadn't changed much from before, the blush on his earlobes hinted at his current mood.
"Mom, can you tell me a story about my brother when he was little?" Qiao You asked curiously as he sat down next to Su Shu.
Su Shu satisfied her precious child's curiosity, saying, "The golden ball's saliva attack is exactly the same as Jue'er's when she was little."
"At that time, Helian Cheng had a ruby on his uniform epaulette. Jue'er saw it and really wanted it, but she couldn't speak, so Helian Cheng didn't understand what it meant."
"Jue'er thought that Helian Cheng was unwilling to give it to him, so she started verbally attacking him."
"And Jue'er was even more vengeful than Jin Qiuqiu. For a whole week after that, she attacked Helian Cheng whenever she saw him."
"By the way, Jue'er was less than a month old at that time."
