Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Jiang Yu heard that her mother’s pronunciation was different from hers, she frowned and corrected her with a serious expression. “Daddy!”
There was silence again. Jiang An’s face was slapped. Li Mei laughed dryly. “This child, she can’t help but show off after learning a name.”
Wen Li chuckled. “It’s rare for a child to like him. All the older children in his brothers’ families are afraid of him. 1 didn’t expect Little Feather to not be afraid at all. Zou Bai, come, carry your daughter.”
Wen Li liked to joke around, and she loved to tease her unsmiling youngest son.
Zou Bai glanced at his mother helplessly. Wen Li got up and carried Jiang Yu to Zou Bai.
Zou Bai didn’t like children. He didn’t want to care about his mother’s jokes, but when he saw Jiang Yu’s bright black eyes and happy expression when she looked at him, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He naturally felt a sense of closeness.
When he came back to his senses, Zou Bai was already holding Jiang Yu in his arms. Wen Li and Old Madam Zou were also stunned. Wen Li really didn’t expect Zou Bai to take the child.
Soon, a look of joy appeared on Old Madam Zou’s face. She smiled and said,
“It’s rare for a child to be willing to be close to you.”
Jiang Yu was held in Zou Bai’s arms. She looked at the pair of peach blossom eyes that were exactly the same as her brother’s and smiled. She pointed at the backyard with her little hand and stuck out her little butt. “Go… go.”
Her father and brother looked exactly the same, so she wanted to take her father to see her brother. Her stinky brother would definitely be as happy as her. They had a father just like the little animals on television always did.
It was Zou Bai’s first time taking care of a child. When he saw that Jiang Yu had made a request, he was at a loss. He subconsciously looked at the child’s mother.
Jiang An hurriedly went forward and coaxed her softly, “Little Yu, Mommy will carry you to see flowers.”
As she spoke, Jiang An wanted to carry Jiang Yu over, but Jiang Yu immediately turned around and grabbed Zou Bai’s clothes tightly with her short hands. She was a little anxious and ordered with urgency, “Daddy, go.”
When Jiang An saw how stubborn Jiang Yu was, she was a little angry. Her voice became a little heavier. “Little Yu! Be good. Mommy will carry you to play.”
Jiang Yu also had a stubborn temper. She pouted and tilted her little head. Her entire body was pressed against Zou Bai, and she didn’t forget to grab Zou Bai’s clothes. Her entire body was filled with resistance to leaving Zou Bai.
When Zou Bai saw Jiang Yu’s expression, an inexplicable softness rose in his heart. Seeing that she was unhappy, he felt a little worried too. He smiled and said, “I’ll take her there.”
Zou Bai didn’t have a child, so he naturally didn’t know how to coax her. Li Mei was worried that Jiang Yu wouldn’t be able to stop crying later. Moreover, she couldn’t ask the guests to help take care of the child, so she said to Jiang An, “Jiang An, Zou Bai hasn’t been to our house for many years. He probably doesn’t know the way anymore. Walk around with Zou Bai.”
Jiang An agreed and brought Jiang Yu out with Zou Bai. Auntie Sang followed closely behind. She was the confinement nanny. Wherever the child was, she would follow.
Jiang An looked at Zou Bai apologetically. “Mr. Zou, I’m sorry. Little Yu isn’t usually like this. Other than my father and three older brothers, she usually doesn’t take the initiative to approach the opposite sex. She’s really troubled you today.”
Zou Bai smiled nonchalantly and looked at Jiang An. “It’s alright. I haven’t been to your house for many years. I don’t mind walking around. However, you should change the way you address me, right? After all, we’re old acquaintances. Just call me by my name.”
Zou Bai’s voice was low and magnetic. Coupled with the peach blossom eyes that looked at her when he smiled, Jiang An once again felt that Zou Bai was like a charming fox demon. Her heart was about to jump into her throat.
Jiang An, whose face was red, silently shifted her gaze elsewhere. For a moment, she forgot what Zou Bai had said. She only remembered that Zou Bai had asked her to call him by his name. “Okay.”
Seeing Jiang An’s slightly red ears and cheeks, as well as her reaction of looking straight ahead, Zou Bai pursed his lips and suppressed the smile on his face. He stopped teasing her.
The Jiang family was not big. Compared to the Zou family’s old residence, it was on a completely different level. There were not many places for the two of them to wander.
Jiang An knew that Jiang Yu also liked sunflowers, so she brought Jiang Yu to the place where sunflowers were planted. However, the cultivation area in Jingdu City was completely incomparable to the ancestral residence in Xiyun, but it was still very beautiful..
