Chapter 456: Everyone said that having children meant no freedom. Ain’t that the truth? (1)

Shu Yan had thought that once the curiosity subsided, Tianbao wouldn’t pay Xiao Bao much attention anymore.
Lo and behold, he was particularly patient with his little brother and would woo him when he cried, showing no signs of being impatient at all.
“Tianbao is a very good big brother.” Feng Zeyu felt that the atmosphere at home was wonderful.
“I didn’t think it would turn out this way either. Tianbao was raised by his grandparents when he was young and was spoiled rotten. When I first got him back, he would roll on the ground any time something didn’t go his way. It took me a long time to correct that behavior. I didn’t think he would grow up to be so mature now.” Shu Yan felt particularly rewarded.
“As the saying goes, a person’s nature is always kind. What does a little child know? They learn from the adults around them.” Feng Zeyu had always thought that parents were the best teachers for a child.
He turned and saw Shu Yan eating a tomato. Frowning, he said, “Is that all you are going to eat for dinner? Are you still going to eat dinner?”
“No, I’ll eat a little bit during dinner. I won’t be able to produce milk if I don’t eat. I’ll go back on a diet after Xiao Bao is weaned.” Xiao Bao was already close to four months old. Shu Yan planned to breastfeed him until he was 6 months old.
She felt that was a long time already, but Feng Zeyu felt that that was short.
Normal kids would be breastfed until they were a year old. Nevertheless, Shu Yan had already had her mind made up so he didn’t say anything else about it.
“Mom, Xiao Bao is smiling at me.”
Shu Yan smiled when she heard Tianbao’s words. “Xiao Bao is smiling at you because he likes you.”
Days passed amidst the laughter of children. By the sixth month, Shu Yan wanted to wean off Xiao Bao. She worried that she would have moments of weakness when she heard the child cry and it so happened that they would be putting on a fashion show overseas and it would be too much for Hu Ruixue to handle, so Shu Yan accompanied her.
It was difficult to work with a child. As soon as Shu Yan had boarded, she wanted to turn around and go home.
“You miss the child, don’t you?” Hu Ruixue saw that Shu Yan was distracted.
“Of course. I had been raising him myself this entire time. It felt that a part of me is empty without him being here with me.” Shu Yan felt a bit irritated.
“This is normal. It will get better when the child grows older.”
Shu Yan shook her head. How would that feeling go away when the child grew older?
All one could say was that the mother would always have their child on their mind but they couldn’t stop the child from growing up.
As such, they could only hide that feeling in their mind as they care for their children silently.
“Alright, change of subject. Let’s talk about our show. How’s the models’ rehearsal coming along?”
Not only was Qianyan advertised domestically, they also invested heavily in advertisements in countries around China and were very well-known in the Asia region.
Last year, they sponsored two movies in Country A and also received the best wardrobe award from that movie.
That was how they had gained some fame internationally, which allowed them to hold a fashion show overseas smoothly this year.
Their top designer was still Xia Rua. She had been winning awards internationally here and there over the last two years and could now be considered somewhat famed.
The fashion show was very successful and Xianyan had truly received the recognition of some fashionable individuals.
They could now be considered joining the rank of lightly luxurious brand. It would, however, take a while longer to become a real luxurious brand.
Including travel time, Shu Yan was gone for 2 weeks. By the time she returned, Xiao Bao didn’t even recognize her anymore. He wanted to hide in Aunty’s arms and cry when Shu Yan wanted to hold him.
“You little ungrateful brat. I’m Mom. You’ve forgotten about me after just two weeks?” Shu Yan was a little hurt by that.
That didn’t last long. It didn’t take long before he reached out his arms and wanted to be held by Shu Yan. His little head nuzzled her neck and was very affectionate with her.
“Of course all kids recognize their mothers. He’s probably just upset that you haven’t been around lately.” Aunty tried to defend Xiao Bao.
Shu Yan, with Xiao Bao in her arms, her heart softened right away. “Where’s JingJing and Tianbao?”
It was Saturday today and the kids should be home.
