Chapter 454 The Most Precious Treasure
Si Youche immediately stood at attention. "Dad, what are you doing here? Weren't you going abroad to find Mom?"
Si Jingxu had been scolded by his wife and didn't go out. He was feeling annoyed when this little devil suddenly appeared.
"Let me start with you. What is it that you can't let your family know? What have you done this time?"
Si Youche blinked. "No, I didn't do anything, Dad. I just made ginseng tea for Grandma, and I'm going to tell my sister a story tonight."
“You’d better not tell that story,” Si Jingxu said irritably. “It’s just that the people who wrote the book are all gone, otherwise I would definitely sue you.”
Si Youche stood quietly and didn't say a word.
“I asked him to come,” Song Jingyi walked over and patted his nephew’s head. “I promised to teach him how to modify cars, but I need to go see Ningning first.”
"Oh, then you go ahead, I'll go walk the dog with Uncle Cheng."
Si Jingxu also wanted to see his daughter, so he gave his son a few instructions and then went to the Shen family with Song Jingyi.
After losing sight of anyone, A-Cheng raised an eyebrow. "Disassembling guns or practicing swordsmanship today?"
"Let's disassemble the gun. I thought about it when I went back last time, and I found a way to improve it so that my disassembly and assembly speed can be reduced by another three seconds."
Acheng's eyes were full of approval. "Let's go, young master."
"Master, please go first."
As soon as Si Jingxu and Song Jingyi entered the room, they heard Si Youning crying, who had only been asleep for ten minutes.
She didn't sleep well, was in a bad mood, and no one could coax her.
Lan Xinyan hugged her, Shen Yanzhou and Si Youqian held toys in their hands, and Shen Yunqi knelt on one knee on the ground holding candy.
No amount of sweet talk worked; she kept her eyes closed and just wanted to find her mother.
"Ningning, Daddy's going to hug you," Si Jingxu said softly as he came over.
Si Youning paused for a moment while crying, then reached out towards Si Jingxu, but still cried for her mother.
"Mom will be back tomorrow. She'll video call Ningning later, okay?" Si Jingxu skillfully hugged her daughter and comforted her gently.
“Daddy,” Si Youning sobbed, “I want a little crown.”
"Buy it, whichever one you like, Daddy will give it to you, okay? Don't cry." Si Jingxu always granted his daughter's requests.
Although Shen Buyu repeatedly said that raising children shouldn't be like this, he couldn't bring himself to say "no" when he saw his daughter's tears.
"Ningning, what else do you want? Your uncle will give it to you." Song Jingyi looked at Si Youning as if he were seeing his younger sister when she was little, and he couldn't bear to see her cry even once.
"Uncle, you're back! Uncle, give Ningning a hug!" Si Youning snuggled off her father and into Song Jingyi's arms, asking in her childish voice, "Uncle, did you bring me the motorcycle that Aunt Mu Zi assembled for me?"
"There's another part for the little motorcycle that's being shipped from overseas. It'll be a few days late, but Aunt Mu will bring it to Ningning herself then."
Si Youning stopped crying and nestled quietly in Song Jingyi's arms.
Si Jingxu sighed, thankfully he had managed to appease her.
Si Youning looks about 80% like Shen Buyu, and when she cries, she looks exactly like him.
She spoke while sobbing, her soft, sweet voice sounding extremely aggrieved.
Whenever Song Jingyi saw his niece crying, the pain in his heart was indescribable.
When his little sister, at this age, cries, who comforts her?
“Uncle,” Si Youning said, her emotions calming down a bit, and looked up at Song Jingyi, “Uncle, have you eaten yet? Great-Grandpa sent over a big braised pork knuckle, would you like some?”
Song Jingyi sighed softly, his eyes filled with tenderness. "Sweetie, your uncle has eaten. Are you hungry?"
"Ningning wants ice cream, Uncle, can you buy Ningning an ice cream?"
Tears still clung to Si Youning's eyelashes. The first thing she asked herself when she came to her senses was whether she had eaten.
Song Jingyi is incredibly soft-hearted.
He really wanted to agree, but he still had a sliver of reason left.
Before her younger sister went abroad, she specifically told everyone not to give Si Youning ice cream, as her throat had just recovered.
"Uncle?" Si Youning called out again.
"Hmm..." Song Jingyi's eyes darted around, then he suddenly looked at Si Jingxu, "Jingxu, the child is talking to you, can you have some ice cream?"
Si Youning immediately turned her head and looked at her father expectantly, "Daddy, Ningning wants to eat ice cream."
Si Jingxu wanted to curse.
This puts the ball in his court, leaving Song Jingyi to do all the good work.
"Ningning, what you did..." Si Jingxu was about to reason with his daughter when his eyes suddenly lit up, "Look, it's Mom!"
The news report stated that the two countries held economic recovery talks, and Ms. Shen Buyu attended as the chief translator of the translation department.
She was dressed in a crisp black suit, her long hair neatly pinned up at the back of her head, and she wore no accessories, but even a fleeting glimpse of her in the shot was striking.
Even when she appears in the background, she is still a dazzling presence.
"Mom is so beautiful." Si Youning clapped her hands, forgetting to cry and forgetting the ice cream, staring intently at her mother's blurry figure on the TV.
Si Jingxu breathed a sigh of relief; his wife was his lucky star.
However, his little feathers are getting more and more beautiful. I miss her so much, I want to go find her.
"Grandma, why isn't Grandpa back yet? I miss Grandpa." Si Youning saw her mother on TV, which brought her a little comfort, but she hadn't seen her grandfather all day.
“Your grandfather is quick; your grandmother just called to urge him.”
No sooner had she finished speaking than Shen Zhiye strode in, "Ningning! Ningning! Look what Grandpa brought you!"
"Grandpa!" Si Youning jumped off Song Jingyi, her short legs tumbling happily as she sprinted into Shen Zhiye's arms.
"Slow down, my darling, don't fall," Shen Zhiye caught his granddaughter steadily and picked her up. "Did your grandpa say he wanted a few teddy bears last time?"
Si Youning held up one hand, "Ten!"
"Grandpa bought you a hundred!"
After he finished speaking, the butler pushed a cart full of plush bears in.
They have all kinds of bears in different shapes and sizes.
"Yay! So beautiful! I love it! I love Grandpa the most!!!" Si Youning hugged Shen Zhiye's face and gave him a loud kiss.
Shen Zhiye was so happy he couldn't see anything. "Come on, Grandpa will build you a bear mountain at home."
Lan Xinyan rubbed her temples. "I went out for most of the day and bought a hundred bears."
Shen Zhiye was so meticulous with Si Youning that any gift he wanted to give her had to be personally selected by him and could not be given to someone else.
These one hundred bears were the spoils of his afternoon shopping spree.
Shen Yanzhou patted Si Youqian on the shoulder, "What do you want? Your uncle will give it to you."
Si Youqian shook his head. "Uncle, I don't think Grandpa is biased. I even think that all of you should side with my sister."
"Why?" Shen Yunqi asked him.
"Because my sister is the most precious treasure in this world, the one with whom I share the same bloodline."
"What about Youche?" Shen Yunqi asked again.
"He too, I will protect him and make sure he lives a happy and prosperous life."
Si Jingxu couldn't hide the admiration in his eyes.
