Li Sicheng watched as his little face reddened. He found it funny, and his lips lifted instinctively in a smile. He stepped forward. Picking him up single-handedly, he patted the little boy on his bum and commented, “We’ll talk about it again when you’re older.”
Li Jianqian began to struggle in disgruntlement and yelled out, “Dad! I’m not a little kid anymore!”
Li Sicheng ignored his outburst completely and carried him inside.
Li Mosen eyed Li Jianqian enviously but still followed them inside.
His expression had been witnessed by Luo Zhan, who proceeded to blow a whistle and walk up to him. Doing the exact same thing that Li Sicheng had done, he picked the little boy up and declared, “Off we go!”
Li Mosen was initially shocked, but he regained his senses soon after and began to flutter in excitement as he called out, “Outpace them, Uncle Luo Zhan!”
“Alright!” Luo Zhan strode in with wide steps and yelled out, “Yo ho! We’re off to play!”
When she saw that all the men had left, Li Jianyue continued to cling on to her mother’s neck and asked, “Mommy, is what Daddy said just now true?”
Su Qianci smiled when she heard that and replied, “You should listen to what your daddy says. Daddy and Mommy will never be out to harm you.”
“OK…” Li Jianyue agreed, but whether or not she understood was a totally different matter.
The ladies went in together. After a quick shower and changing out of their clothes, they entered the hot springs.
They requested for a swim ring from the service staff so that the little girl could treat the springs as a swimming pool.
Li Jianyue was almost five. She had been fed by Li Sicheng to the point that she was round and tubby.
Yu Lili loved carrying the little girl, so she waved her over. “Ersu, come over here to Auntie Lili.”
The water droplets on the little child glistened as she swam over to Yu Lili. Laughter filled the air as the little bundle of joy rolled over and splashed water all over.
It was evident that Ye Qianqian and Ye Youyou liked the little girl very much too. Soon, all of them were playing together.
After being in the pool for a while, Li Jianyue grew a little bored and said, “Mommy, let’s go play with Older Brothers.”
Su Qianci carried her daughter and asked with a chuckle, “You miss them?”
Li Jianyue pouted and replied, “Older Brothers must be so bored since they’re not playing with me. Sigh, they’re always up to such silly antics. I can’t stand them!”
Ye Youyou giggled and asked, “For example?”
“They’re always taking apart the car tracks and rebuilding them,” Li Jianyue said.
Yu Lili asked, “Do you not like that?”
“I like to push the cars along the tracks, but I don’t like to have to fix the tracks,” Li Jianyue replied. “It’s so boring!”
Su Qianci smiled and picked her up from behind. When Li Jianyue shrieked with laughter as she was lifted out of the water, her joyous expression was clearly visible.
“Alright. Enough.” Yu Lili got out of the springs and wrapped Li Jianyue in a towel she had taken from the side. “Be careful not to catch a cold. Come on out.”
Li Jianyue’s excitement hadn’t died down. Her actions were a little forceful, making it hard for Yu Lili to carry her.
“Ersu, stop moving. The floor is very slippery. Don’t case Auntie to fall.” Su Qianci’s tone was strict. Li Jianyue listened and behaved immediately. She stopped moving in Yu Lili arms.
Seeing that the child had calmed down, Su Qianci was reassured and climbed out of the springs. Just as she exited the water, her head suddenly spun. As her surroundings became black, she almost fell.
