With the baby in his arms, Lu Jinyu finally got what he wanted. Even though he was inexperienced in carrying a baby, he did it the right way.
The reason why little Yueyao cried non-stop the last time, apart from the fact that he was a stranger, was probably because he didn't carry the child the right way. After he left that day, he consulted the mothers he knew and learned from them. Now, he had more confidence!
He carried her meticulously and the little princess did not try to embarrass him. Instead of crying like the last time, she looked at him curiously with her wide eyes as if she was sizing him up!
Only, after carrying her for a short time, the little princess seemed to start minding it!
Little Yueyao suddenly looked in Mu Yazhe's direction and reached out her chubby hands as if asking to be rescued!
This reaction gave Mu Yazhe great satisfaction!
See!
The child has her preference when it came to people!
This was good!
He liked that his daughter would only acknowledge him and not anyone else. This way, no one else could covet his daughter!
Mu Yazhe said, "Yueyao doesn't need you to carry her. Give her to me."
Lu Jinyu felt somewhat reluctant and turned a little sullen. He felt aggrieved but little Yueyao was indeed struggling and kicking her legs as if she despised him. Lu Jinyu was also afraid that she'd be hurt so as much as he was unwilling, he could only return the little princess to Mu Yazhe!
Of course, when the family of five said that they were going for a walk in the park, a certain someone tagged along shamelessly, hoping that at some point, Mu Yazhe would tire from carrying the baby. When that should happen, he would have an excuse to carry her for a while!
But did he not realize that Mu Yazhe's arm would not feel sore even after carrying the little princess for a few hours!
With little Yueyao in his arms, his heart felt full. He could not even bear to let her go, much less feel tired!
Hence, after strolling around for an entire hour, Lu Jinyu only had the opportunity to watch from the side.
Carrying her was basically wishful thinking!
Actually, Lu Jinyu did not think much of children in the past. Hence, when he was in his twenties, he did not consider getting married and having children!
Where children were concerned, he was not particular whether he had a son or a daughter.
However, after little Yueyao was born and he set eyes on her, his heart blossomed with love for the little princess. This made him determined to have a daughter in the future!
Mu Yazhe had told him that rather than coveting little Yueyao, he might as well got married and had a child of his own.
But it wasn't as though one could get married right away just because one wanted to?
Before marriage, one had to fall in love?
Love was a many-splendored thing that could only be encountered, it had nothing to do with preparation.
It didn't mean that the moment he was mentally prepared, that special person would appear. He couldn't very well settle for a random woman just because he wanted a daughter?
Youyou encouraged Yun Shishi, saying, "Mommy, why don't you introduce Auntie Xiao Xue to Uncle Jinyu? Auntie Xiao Xue is so pretty, and she's quite compatible with Uncle Jinyu!"
"No way!"
Yun Shishi and Lu Jinyu spoke in unison, as if they had a tacit understanding between them.
Yun Shishi reasoned, "I'm not going to play matchmaker. No one can interfere in matters of the heart!"
Lu Jinyu, on the other hand, said, "I don't like it when others introduce me to girls. It's great if we were satisfied with each other, but if we weren't, everyone could end up in an awkward position!"
Youyou thought that made sense.
