Chapter 16 Do you not like her?
Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Do you not like her?
Big eyes, high nose bridge.
Black hair, skin white as snow.
The five-year-old boy was so handsome he seemed like a child star from an advertisement.
Dressed in beige home clothes, they softened his calm complexion, diluting the childishness that children usually had.
He carried an air of mysterious aloofness.
He just quietly watched Fu Yanci, and even without saying anything, Ye Li could see the fine sparkle in his eyes and the clearly lifted mood at the moment.
As if to say, "Dad, you’re here!"
Looking at Fu Yanci, then back at the little handsome guy, Ye Li couldn’t help but blink.
Like!
So alike!
He was simply a miniature version of Fu Yanci!
So she got a son without having to go through ten months of pregnancy or feeding and waking up at night for milk?
While Ye Li was cheerfully daydreaming, she heard Fu Yanci calling her.
"Ye Li..."
The man affectionately touched Xiao Bao’s head, then turned to Ye Li and said, "His name is Fu Muzhi. You can call him Muzhi or Xiao Bao."
"Fu Muzhi, this is Ye Li... From now on, you’ll see her often!"
"Hello, Xiao Bao, I’m Sister Lizi. I’ll be looking after you from now on, okay?"
Just as Ye Li began to speak, she detected a sharp look from the man, like that of a hawk.
As if he were saying, What on earth is ’Sister Lizi’? That’s not the right way to address him!
Ye Li didn’t care.
She just shrank her arms, feeling cold, and turned to Xiao Bao, "It’s so cold, Xiao Bao, may I come to play in your room?"
The little boy lifted his eyelids to glance at Ye Li, not saying yes, but also not saying no.
But Ye Li clearly understood what he meant: Childish!
Ye Li: ...
Raising her eyes again, Xiao Bao had already dragged Fu Yanci into the house.
Ye Li hurriedly followed.
The spacious room was divided into three sections: the bedroom on the left, and a classroom on the right.
The brightest area in the middle was the play area, distinctly divided into drawing and Lego sections,
Several completed Legos were casually placed where they belonged.
On the other side of the corner, scatterings of parts lay on the floor, with a nascent Hogwarts Castle beginning to take shape.
"You’re making good progress, with so much built already!"
Fu Yanci’s gaze held admiration as Xiao Bao pulled him over to sit on the carpet.
One flipping through the manual looking for tiny Lego blocks, the other hammering away.
The atmosphere in the living room was warm and harmonious.
Fu Yanci had thought Ye Li would feel uncomfortable, but when he turned back, he saw the girl leaning against a soft cushion, left hand on the drawing board, right hand with a sketching pencil, biting her lip as she wrote and drew, wholly engrossed in what she was doing.
Even just a side profile of her was quiet and beautiful, like a painting.
The fine curve of her lips had just begun to rise, and not knowing why, Fu Yanci suddenly darkened his expression.
A poke in the palm brought Fu Yanci back to his senses, and he saw Xiao Bao looking at him full of confusion.
Since coming to the old residence at two, after three years, whether it was Old Mrs. Fu or the servants, everyone was able to communicate with Xiao Bao without any barriers, even when he didn’t speak.
Fu Yanci was the same.
So, Fu Yanci could see clearly Xiao Bao asking him: Do you... not like her?
His expression eased bit by bit, but Fu Yanci remained silent.
Xiao Bao, however, seemed to understand.
That’s liking someone.
But if you like her, why do you look so angry?
Xiao Bao’s eyebrows furrowed, and after a long while, with a face that said "adults are so hard to understand," he lowered his head and continued hammering away.
Right, he should be happy for marrying her, shouldn’t he?
With messy thoughts, Fu Yanci pretended to read the manual, but his mind was who knows where.
Turning back, Fu Yanci: ...
In the drawing area, Ye Li had already embraced the drawing board and fell asleep on the cushion.
"Alright, it’s time for you to sleep too!"
Glancing at his watch, it was already nine o’clock.
Fu Yanci rubbed Xiao Bao’s head, then helped him put away the tools, watching as Xiao Bao diligently washed up and went to bed.
Only then did he get up and pick up Ye Li.
In the moment of standing up, he saw the two paintings on the drawing board.
Fu Yanci’s eyes lingered.
