bite.
Another system message popped up.
[Your special follower @顾清延v liked your Weibo post.]
Xu Zhaozhao clicked on the list of likes with a puzzled look.
The system had a delay; she discovered that Gu Qingyan was at the very top of the queue…
Wow, she's amazing! She can't even get a seat on her own.
After forwarding the Weibo post, Xu Zhaozhao put her phone on the bedside table and went to wash up.
We're filming a children's reality show tomorrow.
The wonderful time of sleeping in is about to end.
Xu Zhaozhao's cold has completely healed; her nose is no longer stuffy, and her strength has returned.
After washing up, I sent a WeChat message to Sister Yan, who was on a business trip, to ask about the details of this episode of the children's variety show.
After asking the questions, Sister Yan explained her recent situation.
Not only did she have to accompany her new artist to offline events, but she also had to find time to handle Xu Zhaozhao's schedule.
Yan Jie: Zhao Jie, my inbox is about to burst.
She sent the few she had selected to Xu Zhaozhao.
Hush: I won't answer.
Almost instantly, Xu Zhaozhao's message popped up.
Yan Jie: There are only two episodes left on the children's variety show, are you really not planning to take on any more work? Not even commercials?
Hush: I won't answer.
Shh: After filming the children's variety show, I'll take a break for a while.
Not only does she need to rest, but she also can't let Yu Yu follow her out to work every day.
Yan Jie: Okay.
She didn't insist.
QQ.
Hearing the knock on the door, Xu Zhaozhao's heart warmed uncontrollably.
Xu Zhaozhao immediately put down her phone, walked over and opened the door, and as expected saw Gu Yulin carrying a bowl of porridge.
"Come in, baby."
He placed the steaming hot porridge in front of Xu Zhaozhao and pulled the stool out to a suitable distance.
The little hand clapped twice on the stool, "Mom, hurry up and eat lunch."
She woke up close to noon, and after washing up, she could eat the hot porridge that Yu Yu brought her.
With the care of the nanny and Yu Yu, Xu Zhaozhao has truly been waited on hand and foot during her illness these past few days.
After finishing her meal, Xu Zhaozhao quickly took the bowl to the sink and started washing it.
If we're even a step too slow, our son will beat us to it again!
Back in the room, I patted his little head and said, "Baby Fish, we're recording a children's variety show tomorrow."
He nodded obediently.
Xu Zhaozhao sighed softly, squatted down, and said to Gu Yulin earnestly, "If you feel tired, baby, you must tell Mommy."
Gu Yulin shook his head. "I want to stay with my mother."
As he spoke, Gu Yulin observed Xu Zhaozhao's expression.
Why would Mom ask that?
Is he too clingy? Is his mother annoyed by him?
Before Gu Yulin could continue thinking, Xu Zhaozhao smiled and pinched his cheek, then led him to the large carpet.
The messy pile of building blocks from yesterday is still on top.
"Baby Fish, quickly teach Mommy how to assemble these building blocks."
Xu Zhaozhao is terrible at handicrafts.
She was once publicly criticized by her teacher on the podium for cutting paper snowflakes, and was told she was completely worthless.
From then on, Xu Zhaozhao avoided anything that required manual labor.
But when she played with building blocks with Yu Yu, she felt a peace and happiness she had never experienced before.
Xu Zhaozhao has been lying in bed for several days and is about to get moldy. She doesn't need to prepare anything in advance for recording the children's variety show.
Gu Yulin also had to attend classes, so he thought he would take two building blocks from his room to build something.
At first, she got tired of assembling some little rabbits and carrots, so Gu Yulin let her choose for herself.
Xu Zhaozhao chose these building blocks in Yu Yu's room. They had no pictures or labels; they were something she'd kept hidden away.
She asked Gu Yulin several times, but he wouldn't tell her what it was. This aroused Xu Zhaozhao's curiosity, so she moved to her own room.
"We're recording the show tomorrow!"
Xu Zhaozhao plopped down on the carpet. "I'm going to put this block set together today!"
Gu Yulin thought she was joking, and at first he was quietly arranging the blocks for her.
Even after the clock had passed eleven o'clock, Xu Zhaozhao remained serious and showed no signs of giving up.
The blocks only formed half of a small figure...
Gu Yulin reached into his pocket and handed Xu Zhaozhao a candy, saying, "Mom, have a candy."
Xu Zhaozhao can even resist the temptation of strawberry candy.
"Baby, I think I'm almost there!"
Excitedly, he stacked a block on top of the half-finished block figure.
Two seconds later, he took it down in frustration.
That's wrong.
Gu Yulin picked up two building blocks and placed them on top. Xu Zhaozhao then placed the one she was holding on top, and they succeeded.
"Great! This block figure is missing a head!"
The three heads were relatively easy to identify, and Xu Zhaozhao picked up the male head and put it on.
The smile froze on her lips.
I didn't notice anything while assembling it, but now that it's finished, I can see the whole thing.
The black suit and the Buddhist prayer beads-like decoration on his right hand made it hard for her not to think of Gu Qingyan.
Xu Zhaozhao decided to probe indirectly, "Baby, does this block figure have a real-life counterpart?"
"Um."
Gu Yulin nodded. "The prototype is Gu Qingyan. I customized all three of these building blocks."
Xu Zhaozhao didn't expect him to be so direct, and the words she was about to ask were stuck in her throat.
Xu Zhaozhao stared intently at him, making Gu Yulin a little embarrassed, and his ears turned red.
"But this was custom-made a year ago. I wouldn't order it now."
A year ago, it was the time when Gu Yulin longed for love the most.
With no father to care and no mother to love him, he could only lock himself in his room, building blocks over and over again, only to knock them down and rebuild them...
These building blocks are Gu Yulin's painful memories.
But he wouldn't tell Xu Zhaozhao any of this.
Xu Zhaozhao fell silent.
Splash!
Xu Zhaozhao immediately knocked down the little block figure she had spent a whole day building.
She snuggled into Gu Yulin's arms, burying her head in his chest, "Baby, will you sleep with Mommy tonight?"
For the past few days, Xu Zhaozhao had been suffering from a cold, so she let him sleep by the bedside instead of letting him lie down on the bed.
Gu Yulin refused to leave no matter what.
Just like his father.
Stubborn as an ox.
"If Mom goes to eat now, I'll say yes."
He always remembered that she hadn't eaten dinner.
Xu Zhaozhao couldn't hold back anymore, "Baby, stay with me."
...
When they returned to the room, they had both finished washing up.
Xu Zhaozhao turned off the main light, and the two, wearing matching Lingna Belle pajamas, embraced each other.
Gu Yulin lay in her arms, clutching the hem of her clothes.
"Gu Qingyan's personal nanny has been absent from work for several days."
Gu Yulin's drowsy murmurs made Xu Zhaozhao pause in patting his back.
"Mom remembers to deduct his salary..."
He fell into a deep sleep.
By the light of the nightlight, her gaze deepened as she stared at the scattered pieces of building blocks.
Looking away, Xu Zhaozhao bent down and kissed his little face.
Gu Yulin suddenly frowned, shrank closer to her, and his voice was trembling with tears.
"Mommy, don't leave Yuyu behind..."
