Chapter 298: Two hundred ninety-eight The little crybaby on the plane_1

Upon hearing this, the little guy shook his head.

He seemed to understand, yet he also seemed not to.

After several tries, Wang Zhong helped them retrieve their belongings from the rear and carried over a big bag, glancing at Ji Pianran’s face.

He wanted to call for Mrs. Gu, but felt it was too formal, and ’sister-in-law’ seemed inappropriate since President Gu was younger than him.

After hesitating for a while, he ended up not calling her anything.

His tone sincere, "This bag is full of snacks. Since you’re leaving so suddenly, I couldn’t prepare much. Please don’t look down on these."

Ji Pianran, looking at the full bag of snacks, felt somewhat embarrassed.

"You’ve bought too much."

Wang Zhong chuckled and glanced at the well-behaved Xiao Tangtang, "These are what your Uncle bought for our little Xiao Tangtang. They are all imported snacks, not worth much."

Hearing that they were bought for her, Xiao Tangtang immediately smiled with her eyes curving delightfully.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhong!"

Having said that, she reached out for Wang Zhong to hold her.

Wang Zhong, seeing the cute little one, immediately extended his arms to hold her close.

Xiao Tangtang stretched out her little hand, hugged Wang Zhong’s neck, and then planted a kiss on his face with a "muah".

"Uncle, Xiao Tangtang will miss you," the little one said with her milky voice, melting Wang Zhong’s heart.

My goodness, this girl is just too cute.

President Gu really struck gold!

He wished he had such an adorable child of his own.

He reached out and gently patted Xiao Tangtang’s head.

"Be good, Uncle will miss you too. There’s a Magic Cube in the bag that Uncle specifically bought for you. Once you’re on the plane and get bored, play with it for a while, okay?"

Hearing that Wang Zhong had actually bought a Magic Cube for the child, President Gu smiled at him.

"Why so formal? We’re all family."

He hasn’t even paid Wang Zhong his salary yet, and here he was, treating them to meals, buying snacks and gifts for the child – he genuinely felt a bit embarrassed.

Hearing this, Wang Zhong laughed.

"We’re family now, President Gu, so don’t be polite with me. These are for the child, and I can’t help it – who can resist when our Xiao Tangtang is so adorable?"

After saying this, he couldn’t resist giving Xiao Tangtang another gentle pat on her head.

President Gu checked his watch, "Okay, it’s getting late. You should head back; we’ll go in and wait for the plane."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhong reluctantly set Xiao Tangtang down on the ground.

He glanced at President Gu’s face.

"Alright, take it slow. Let me know once you’ve arrived, and keep in touch."

President Gu nodded his head and walked with Ji Pianran and Xiao Tangtang towards the departure hall.

After passing security, the three wandered around the airport for a bit and didn’t board the plane until it was almost time.

Xiao Tangtang had never been on an airplane before and was intensely curious about it. She sat by the window, peering out continuously, without a trace of fear, until the flight attendant asked them to close the window shades for take-off.

Only then did she let Ji Pianran reluctantly close the shade.

By coincidence, the seat next to them was occupied by a single mother with a little boy who was slightly older than Xiao Tangtang.

But he only seemed about three and a half years old.

Perhaps due to the change in air pressure, he became uncomfortable, and started crying as soon as the plane took off, causing his mother to appear quite embarrassed.

Xiao Tangtang sat on Ji Pianran’s lap, eating the snacks Wang Zhong had bought for her earnestly, and occasionally stealing glances at the little boy.

Seeing him cry continuously concerned her.

After a while, she pulled on Ji Pianran’s hand and whispered, "Mom, is that brother sick?"

Ji Pianran glanced over, seeing the little boy in such distress, his tears falling like beads in a string.

She bent down and answered softly, "Brother might be feeling unwell."

When she heard he wasn’t feeling well, Xiao Tangtang hesitated and glanced at the snack in her hand, "Mommy, how about giving this to him to eat, it’s really yummy."

This was her favorite banana crisp, the little brother would definitely like to eat it!

Mrs. Gu didn’t expect her daughter to be so generous and couldn’t help but tease her, "But what if the little brother’s illness can only be cured with all your snacks?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tangtang’s big, black eyes immediately widened, all her snacks?

She looked down at her snack bag, then back up at the boy’s face.

She was really in a quandary.

There were so many yummy things she hadn’t even had a chance to eat yet, she was reluctant to part with them.

But if she didn’t give them, the little brother would keep crying like this, it must be very uncomfortable.

She pursed her little lips, hesitated for a long while, and then gazed at the child beside her with longing eyes.

"Brother, don’t cry anymore, I’ll give all these to you."

Having said that, the little one was ready to pass her snacks over.

Although she sounded generous, actually her heart screamed reluctance.

She was almost about to cry.

When the little boy heard Xiao Tangtang was going to give him something to eat, and such a big bag at that, he stopped crying out of surprise.

He looked at Xiao Tangtang incredulously, "All for me?"

Xiao Tangtang nodded, "Mhm, Mommy said you’re crying because you’re sick. These were bought for me by Uncle Zhong, they’re so yummy, I hope eating them will make you better."

After saying this, she went to embrace her treasured bag of snacks.

Seeing this, the boy’s mother felt really embarrassed.

Her own child’s crying had already become a huge disturbance to others, how could she have the nerve to accept someone else’s food?

She hurriedly said, "Thank you, little friend, you eat it yourself, if little brother has bothered you, aunty apologizes."

While speaking, she couldn’t help envying Ji Pianran.

They were both women, but look at the child the other had—beautiful, fair-skinned with big eyes, like a little princess.

Then look at her own little baldy.

Dark and skinny, and always crying at the drop of a hat.

It really was maddening to compare people, she thought, then tugged at her own child again.

"Stop crying, look at the little sister! Now look at you!"

The little boy only stopped crying when he heard his mother scolding him, feeling inexplicably wronged, he burst into tears again with a loud "wah".

That cry was full of lung power, and now the people on the airplane began to lose their patience.

"Whose child is this, is there ever an end?"

"Been crying since the plane took off!"

"Right, it’s so noisy no one can rest!"

Everyone started to complain, one after another, nonstop.

This made the boy’s mother even more anxious.

She hurriedly reached out to yank her son, "Don’t cry, don’t cry!"

The louder she yelled, the louder the child cried.

The complaints from those around them also got louder and louder.

"How can you even be a mother, do you know how to take care of a child?"

"Exactly, the child cries like that, and you can’t even comfort him, I really don’t understand how you became a mother!"

The woman felt utterly wronged; she truly didn’t know what to do.

Her face turned red as if she were about to cry herself.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Tangtang, like a little adult, couldn’t help but start to worry again.

She climbed from Ji Pianran’s legs onto Mrs. Gu’s lap and looked at the single mother beside her, speaking with her babyish voice, "Aunty, let me help comfort little brother."
