Chapter 525: Chapter 0525: Above and Below the Stage 1_1

The female soldiers of the art troupe only notice Feng Qingxue’s beauty, whereas the border soldiers’ eyes only see the lively and adorable Xibao, oblivious to Feng Qingxue’s appearance. Different mindsets focus on different things.

Spoon by spoon, someone also prepared a bowl of butter tea, and Xibao quickly filled his stomach.

Patting his stomach, he proclaimed, "Full!"

"Would you like to finish the last mouthful?" Wang Xinru handed him the last spoonful of stir-fried noodles.

Xibao vigorously shook his head while waving his chubby hands, "No! No! No!"

Everyone was utterly charmed by his adorable manner.

Feng Qingxue was also surprised, whispering to Lu Jiang, "He has never said anything like this at home. He only knows how to call for his mom, or for milk. He didn’t even call for dad until Brother Anbang arrived."

Even though she always teaches Xibao daily phrases - for example, when he’s full, she would pat his belly and say "full", and teach him to recognize his eyes, nose, ears, mouth, neck, hands, and feet. But Little Fatty made her rather powerless; he knew to eat, run, and play tricks, but just wouldn’t speak, which made her, as a mother, extremely anxious.

Lu Jiang confidently said, "It’s because he sees me! My presence has enlightened him."

"Look at you, so thick-skinned. You’ve been gone for a year, only spent half a day with him, most of which was spent sleeping. What could you have possibly taught him?"

Accidentally catching a glimpse of Feng Qingxue playfully tapping Lu Jiang’s arm, Xibao immediately pointed and shouted, "Hit! Hit! Hit hit hit!" He nimbly slid down from Guo Xiuying’s leg, ran to Lu Jiang, and slapped his thigh.

Though the sound wasn’t loud, Little Fatty’s pose was very impressive.

Feng Qingxue was taken aback and quickly pulled him over, squatted down to look him in the eye, and said sternly, "Baby, we can’t hit people, okay? We can’t hit daddy, and we can’t hit others. Those who hit others are naughty kids. Xibao is a good baby, promise not to hit others, okay? Can you say ’okay’?"

"Naughty!" Xibao replied.

"Yes, those who hit others are naughty kids. Naughty kids don’t get milk, they don’t get food, they don’t get eggs. And then mom will spank the naughty kid’s bottom!" To help him understand what spanking was, Feng Qingxue patted his bottom, "Like this! If Xibao hits others, mom will hit Xibao, will hit Xibao’s bottom!"

Xibao promptly tried to cover his bottom but due to wearing too much he couldn’t reach it. His face turned red as he tried hard for a while to no avail, causing the onlookers to burst into laughter, almost to the point of tears.

Ye Zhengjun hadn’t gotten the chance to hold Xibao during the day, so he seized this opportunity before Zhao Yong to hold Xibao in his arms.

"Tell me, what’s your name?" He asked.

"Baby!" Xibao replied joyfully.

Ye Zhengjun was taken aback, then laughed, "Your name is Baby? That’s so cute."

Xibao, being praised, grinned from ear to ear. His laughter was contagious. He then reached out to touch Ye Zhengjun’s face, who had some stubble. It pricked his hand causing him to instantly retract it next to his chubby face. With his round eyes wide open, he seemed very intrigued, and let out a sound, "Mama, mama, mama!"

Feng Qingxue, observing from the side, asked, "Are you trying to say ’prickly’?"

"Prickly!" Xibao immediately repeated, albeit with a bit of a lisp. He stretched out a finger to touch the stubble on Ye Zhengjun’s face, then withdrew his hand swiftly, "Prickly! Prickly!"
