Chapter 1871: To Be Contented with Resting on One’s Laurels
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The reason why Li Sicheng left Li Jianqian in the capital was because he wanted him to bring so warmth into the lives of the two elderly people. Secondly, he also wanted his son to beco independent quickly.
It was obvious that this thod was extrely effective. However, Su Qianci didn’t share the sa sentint, and she said rather uncomfortably, “What kind of independence is that when he doesn’t have his parents by his side? What’s the point if he develops ntally when our bond with the child is weakened?”
“Is it weakened?” Li Sicheng placed his phone down and raised his eyebrows rather gleefully as he said, “Why do I feel like our bond has deepened instead?”
When Su Qianci heard this, she looked at Li Sicheng, slightly jealous, before she replied unhappily, “Your father-son relationship has deepened, but I can’t say the sa for our mother-son relationship.”
Li Sicheng smiled. “Our son will be back in a few days. You’ll have plenty of ti to nurture your relationship then.”
Su Qianci was still quite unhappy, and she pouted as she lowered her head and continued to accompany her daughter in stacking the fairytale-thed Legos that Ye Youyou bought.
On the other hand, Li Mosen was doing his howork seriously, and he was not the least distracted by the adults’ conversation. Ye Youyou took one glance at Li Mosen before she yelled out, “Mosen, have you completed your assignnt?”
Li Mosen lifted his head up and took one glance before he shook his head gently and replied, “Not yet. A little bit more to go.”
“Have you seen the toys that Auntie bought for you? Do you like them?”
Li Mosen had yet to look at them, and when he heard what Ye Youyou said, he looked up and smiled as he said, “I like anything that Auntie buys for !”
When Ye Youyou heard his reply, she lifted her head up and glanced at him. Although she had a smile on her face, it didn’t reach her eyes. Instead, her heart ached slightly for him. This child was quite similar to herself when she was a child.
Although he addressed Li Sicheng as his father and Su Qianci as his mother, from the mont they entered the room up until then, all that Ye Youyou could see was how reserved the child was. He even placed his own howork aside to accompany Li Jianyue as she did her assignnt. He only proceeded to work on his own assignnt after she was with the adults.
While Ye Youyou didn’t want to think too much about it, based on the behavior of the child, along with what he had said to her earlier, it gave Ye Youyou a sense of familiarity. It was a sense of helplessness over the fact that “beggars can’t be choosers.”
Ye Youyou didn’t speak, and she lowered her head to look at the little girl before her. Li Jianyue’s face was fair and pinkish, and she stared at the toys in front of her big, black, and innocent-looking eyes. She was extrely focused. It was apparent that she was raised in a wealthy family; she behaved as though there was nothing to be worried about. She said anything that ca to her mind and did anything that she wanted to. She was free and unrestrained. In comparison, Mosen appeared to be overly restrained by his position.
After ten minutes or so, Li Mosen finally completed his assignnt and handed it over for Li Sicheng to check through. After he saw Li Sicheng’s nod of approval, a smile of joy finally appeared on the tiny face of this mixed-race boy.
Li Mosen only went to unwrap the packaging of the toys that Ye Youyou brought over after he had finished packing up all of his things.
Other than the figurines of characters from popular animated cartoons, boys his age liked toy car models or so heavy human figurines. These included figurines like that of Transforrs or Superman. Thus, Ye Youyou bought Li Mosen a figurine that was currently very popular and that he could build by himself.
As expected, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on Li Mosen’s face the mont he opened the package, and he yelled out, “Oh my god! This is my favorite Powerman. I’ve wanted it for a very long ti. Thanks, Auntie!”
