Ye Jingyu thought about many things and couldn't help but drift off into a daze for a long time.
Until he heard Xiao Li calling him.
"Young Master Xing, Young Master Xing, are you asleep, Young Master Xing?"
Ye Jingyu finally came to his senses.
"Hmm?"
He murmured in confusion, looked up at Ye Jingyu who was turning to look at him from the driver's seat, and asked with concern.
"Young Master Xing, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ye Jingyu shook his head and said.
"Nothing's wrong, I'm just a little sleepy."
As he spoke, Ye Jingyu yawned, opened the door, and stood on the ground.
Xiao Li got out of the car and saw Ye Jingyu standing on tiptoe, stretching out his arms towards Xiao Li, and saying sleepily.
"Sleepyhead, Uncle Li wants to hug me."
Looking at Ye Jingyu, who was so soft and cuddly, like an adorable little doll, Xiao Li was almost melted by his cuteness. He immediately bent down and picked Ye Jingyu up.
"Then your uncle will take you back to your room to sleep."
Ye Jingyu rested his head on Xiao Li's shoulder, as if he was about to fall asleep again, but he secretly opened one eye and looked towards the trunk of the car.
The trunk lid was opened a crack, and Little Star peeked out with half its head out, waving at Ye Jingyu.
Only after Xiao Li carried Ye Jingyu away did Xiao Xingxing secretly jump out of the car trunk and sneak into the villa.
Little Star hid under the stairs, waiting for Xiao Li to take Ye Jingyu back to his room before coming down. Only after Xiao Li left did she casually walk out and head upstairs.
As he passed the second floor, he happened to run into Pei Fengzhi, who was coming out of the study.
The two, one big and one small, stared at each other for a long time.
"Little Star? Didn't Xiao Li carry you upstairs? Why did you suddenly wake up?"
Little Star quickly clung to Pei Fengzhi, tugging at his clothes, and said in a childish voice.
"I'm thirsty and want to drink water."
Pei Fengzhi bent down, picked up the little guy, gently patted his head, and said with a smile.
"Daddy will take you there."
As he spoke, Pei Fengzhi carried Xiao Xingxing downstairs into the kitchen, poured him a glass of milk, and watched him drink it before wiping his mouth. Then he carried the little guy to his children's room.
Little Star immediately became nervous.
At this moment, Yu Yu is still in the room! If he doesn't hide well, wouldn't he be caught red-handed by Pei Fengzhi?
Wouldn't that mean...?
Just thinking about that scene made Little Star feel like the world was about to end.
He immediately struggled to jump off Pei Fengzhi's arms, twisting his body as he spoke earnestly.
"Daddy, I'm a big kid now. I don't need you to carry me back. I can go back to my room by myself. You can go back to work."
Pei Fengzhi couldn't help but feel her heart melt when she saw how well-behaved her son was.
He gently patted Little Star's head and whispered softly.
"Daddy isn't busy, Daddy wants to spend some time with you."
Little Star bit her lip, somewhat hesitant.
If I refuse Daddy again, will he be sad?
He looks so pitiful!
Just as Xiaoxing was about to agree, Ye Ningwan changed into loose clothes and came downstairs in slippers, only to see two people, one big and one small, standing in the kitchen.
She stared at the back of Xiaoxing's head with narrowed eyes. After a while, Ye Ningwan smiled and walked towards the kitchen. She picked up Xiaoxing from the ground, held him in her arms, pinched his soft little face, and asked with a smile.
"What are you two talking about?"
Little Star hugged Ye Ningwan's neck, gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek, and said with a grin.
"Daddy poured me milk and said he would come back to my room with me, but I'm already five years old, a big kid now, and I can go back to my room by myself!"
The little star's innocent voice, coupled with such a confident expression, was truly irresistible.
Ye Ningwan reached out and patted Little Star's head, asking gently.
"How about Mommy comes back with you?"
Little Star blinked its cat-like eyes, its round pupils darted around a few times, then it nodded vigorously and said happily.
"OK!"
Pei Fengzhi immediately became somewhat dissatisfied.
She and Xiaoxing knew each other first, so how come Ye Ningwan and the little guy have a better relationship now? They're like mother and son.
Thinking of this, Pei Fengzhi couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. He didn't know whether he felt more jealous of Ye Ningwan or Little Star.
He pretended to be angry and questioned Little Star.
"Didn't you say you're a big kid now and need to be independent? Why do you still want Mommy to take you home? You won't let Daddy take you, but you want Mommy to take you. Do you hate Daddy?"
Little Star pouted.
"No, not at all! Little Star loves Daddy and Mommy too!"
Ye Ningwan knew that Pei Fengzhi was joking with Xiaoxingxing, and she felt helpless. Why was this person acting so coquettishly with a child? It was truly exasperating.
She interrupted Pei Fengzhi and asked him.
"Don't you have a meeting this afternoon? It's almost time, go ahead, we won't bother you any longer. I'm taking Little Star with me now."
Pei Fengzhi leaned in, took Ye Ningwan's hand, and buried his head in the crook of her neck, nuzzling her affectionately as he whispered something.
"I don't want to go to work, I'll miss you so much! I just want to be with you every day, I don't want to go anywhere else."
