Everything was still so uncertain, but, she still wanted it. She wanted to be with him, to live with him, and to have children with him.
Looking into the depths of Ou Ming’s eyes, Yu Lili lifted the corners of her mouth and nodded her head.
This was it then. She’d just cherish the present. They’d take it one step at a time…
Yu Lili saw a little pink figure out the corner of her eye and turned her head. Li Jianyue was coming towards her, her stubby little hands carrying a platter of fruit carefully. She was trying her best not to drop it. When she saw Yu Lili looking at her, she beamed and proclaimed, “Auntie, have some fruit!”
Yu Lili’s heart turned to mush, and she went forward to take the platter of fruit from the girl. “Come here. I’ll feed you some.”
“Thank you, Auntie! But I have to eat it on my own. Daddy said that if I can eat on my own without dropping the food on my clothes, he’ll grant me a wish.” Li Jianyue spoke merrily. She proceeded to spear a piece of fruit with a fork and handed it to Yu Lili. “Auntie, please have some fruit.”
“Thank you, Ersu.” Happiness could be seen in Yu Lili’s eyes as she accepted it.
Li Jianyue was elated at being thanked. She once again picked up another piece of dragon fruit with the fork and ran over to Ou Ming. “Uncle, have some fruit!”
Ou Ming accepted it and patted her on the head. “Thank you.”
Li Jianyue laughed joyfully and announced loudly, “Don’t mention it!” As she spoke, she speared another two pieces of fruit and went over to Li Mosen and Li Jianqian.
Just as the two boys took the fruit, the main door opened. When Li Sicheng stepped in, he was surprised at seeing Ou Ming and Yu Lili.
“Daddy!” Li Jianyue called out happily. She bounced up on her little feet and ran towards Li Sicheng. “Daddy,” she yelled, “carry me!”
It was colder outside than it was in the house, and the cold air clung to Li Sicheng’s clothing. Seeing his child wearing only a single layer of pajamas, he avoided her and explained, “Daddy’s clothes are cold. I’ll carry you later.” He shut the door as he spoke, and held his daughter’s hand. “Have you greeted Uncle and Auntie yet?”
“Yeah! I poured fruit juice for Uncle and Auntie, and I even served them fruit. I ate some myself too, and I didn’t drop any. Look!” She shook off Li Sicheng’s hand and twirled herself around. “Aren’t I cool?”
After a busy day at work, witnessing his daughter’s antics made Li Sicheng laugh. “You’re awesome. My daughter is so awesome! Where’s Mommy?”
“Mommy is brewing sweet soup for Uncle and Auntie.” Li Jianyue hugged Li Sicheng’s leg and said, “Daddy, you promised me a wish if I ate without dropping anything on my clothes.”
Li Sicheng grinned at his daughter from the bottom of his heart. He was initially numb from the cold outside, but this smile warmed him up.
Li Sicheng bent down to pick his daughter up, and he made his way inside, asking along the way, “What wish would you like me to grant?”
“I want to sleep with you and Mommy. Other children sleep with their daddy and mommy, so I want to as well!”
“Who said that? Do your brothers sleep with Daddy and Mommy?”
“Xiao Honghua from next door said so. She sleeps with her daddy and mommy!” Li Jianyue’s eyes roamed Li Sicheng’s face. “Daddy, you’re a grown-up. You have to keep your word!”
