Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Going Together

Yang Yike, upon hearing Ye Zhenzhen’s words, took the initiative and said, "Auntie, I’ll go get the gloves for you."

Xu Wanjia didn’t let her own daughter help but only let her stand by and play, fearing that the large sugarcane might fall and hit her.

Song Jinze turned to look at Xiao Yiyi, his handsome face smiling even more deeply, "Would it be nice if uncle went with you?"

Director Yang’s sugarcane chopping faltered, and as he bent down, he glanced at his daughter, thinking he, as a dad, could accompany his daughter too.

Yang Yike crinkled her little nose and shook her head, "No thanks, uncle, I want to go with Brother Xiao Chen."

Director Yang: ...

After hearing the first half of his daughter’s refusal, he thought he was about to step in as a dad, even preparing to set down the axe he was carrying on the ridge.

But the next second, it wasn’t him his daughter called for—it was Brother Xiao Chen!

Sigh!

[What is that expression on Director Yang’s face, hahaha, too funny!]

[I’ve been observing Director Yang for a few days now, he really seems to be a dotting father. He’s always so attentive whenever Xiao Yiyi is going to do something.]

[As a dad myself, I can assert that Director Yang’s expression is one of worry that someone is stealing his precious daughter!]

After being rejected, Song Jinze only raised an eyebrow slightly; he was rather fond of the little girl.

So, he turned his head and called out, "Song Yuchen, your sister is asking you to accompany her to get the gloves."

Having felled the second stalk of sugarcane, Song Yuchen felt a sense of accomplishment. He toddled over to Yang Yike, "Let’s go, I’ll accompany you."

Yang Yike looked at Song Yuchen’s extended hand and took out a small handkerchief from her pocket, saying in a soft voice, "Your hand is all black, I have a handkerchief here, brother, you can use it to wipe your hands."

"No need, let’s go get the gloves first; we’ll need to come back and keep working later."

Watching the two little figures walking away, Director Yang sighed deeply, "Oh!"

Song Jinze hadn’t cared at first, but as Director Yang’s glances at him changed from a fleeting look to a frown, he couldn’t help but ask, "Director Yang, what’s the matter?"

Director Yang tossed the sugarcane he chopped to the side, "It’s nothing, you wouldn’t understand anyway!"

This helpless tone was also hiding a bit of anger, albeit not very conspicuous.

Indeed, his most adorable treasure of a daughter had outright ignored him, and to make matters worse, there were two, one big and one small, both fond of his treasure.

He felt an irrational sense of crisis, as if it had arrived twenty years too early!

Song Jinze was nonchalant, not taking Director Yang’s response to heart, and he continued to stay by Ye Zhenzhen’s side, joining her in cutting the sugarcane.

[Hahaha, President Song doesn’t have a daughter, he probably can’t understand Director Yang’s thoughts at this moment!]

[President Song is probably thinking about how he can have an adorable daughter like Xiao Yiyi, while Director Yang is thinking about how he can keep his darling daughter from being taken away by someone else!]

[President Song: Director Yang, don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. Wouldn’t it be nice for your daughter to become a daughter-in-law of the Song family?]

[This is supposed to be a children’s variety show, guys, let’s not get too over the top, okay?]

[But Xiao Chen and Xiao Yiyi do make a really cute and sweet little CP, I ship them first in respect!]

...

Elsewhere, Qiu Wanshuang was playing with Ji Yunyun on the ridges of the field, and upon seeing Song Yuchen leading Xiao Yiyi by the hand, she asked, "What are you two little ones up to?"

The family of An Xi and Ji Ziqian, who were busy chopping sugarcane in the field, looked up upon hearing Qiu Wanshuang’s voice.

Gu Xiaoran also followed up on Qiu Wanshuang’s inquiry, "Xiao Chen, what are you guys going to do?"

"I’m going to Aunt Xiaowen to get some gloves; do you want to come?"

While Xiao Chen’s question was addressed to Gu Xiaoran, it was Ji Yunyun who answered, "Yes, yes, let’s go!"

"Then mommy will go with you too."

Qiu Wanshuang got up, taking Ji Yunyun and Song Yuchen with her.

Her mission for the day was to interact with the children, aiming to secure more screen time.

Seeing so many people heading off, Gu Xiaoran smiled and shook his head at Song Yuchen, "Xiao Chen, I’ll stay here, you guys go ahead, just remember to bring back three extra pairs for us; I have to help cut the sugarcane."

[Others watch their kids grow up year by year, but it feels like Gu Xiaoran is growing up day by day, making progress each day.]

[There’s no helping it, with An Xi being unreliable and Gu Liangjun not holding up his end, this poor kid needs to wield a cutting knife and chop sugarcane at such a young age. Poor child~]

[At first, I thought he was too delicate for a boy, but now it seems that An Xi, as a mother, has serious issues. She really doesn’t know how to do anything, nor does she try to learn.]
