"Oh, why is my princess crying?" Jie took his little baby girl from the attendant and cooed softly and lovingly. "Dad is right here. Stop crying."
As for little Bao, he was taken by the enthusiastic and excited Ru who stood up to take little Boa without any care for the people around her. Not that the little guy was any less enthusiastic. He had opened his and almost jumped into Ru’s arms.
"Did you miss ? I missed my little bunny very much," Ru’s voice was so gentle that it seed like soone had taken over her body.
The little guy placed his hands on Ru’s face as he did last night and giggled as he said, "Ruru..."
"Huh? My little Bao spoke. Did you hear that Ah-Jie?" Xu y had jumped up from her seat in surprise. Tears had pooled in her eyes as she held her son’s hand and kissed it incessantly.
"I forgot to ntion, he talked last night as well," Jie ntioned offhandedly while patting the back of his daughter.
"What did he say?" Xu y asked curiously and excitedly.
"Ruru," as if knowing his mother’s question, the answer was given by little Bao himself.
Jie arched his brows and said, "That’s exactly what he said last night."
Xu y frowned before looking at the way her son was comfortable in Ru’s arms and said, "He’s calling your na, right Sensei?" Ru nodded her head in response. Suddenly Xu y chuckled and said, "Now, I know why he was so quiet until now."
"What do you an?" Ru asked distractedly since her attention was mostly on the little bunny in her hands. Even Xiao Zhiren was being disregarded completely to the sidelines.
"My little Bao turned out to be just like ," said Xu y and Ru arched her brows at her in question, waiting for her to continue. "I also opened up when I t you. My son is also learning from your presence. No wonder he’s my son."
Ru found her reasoning to be very unreasonable but decided not to say it out loud. It was not the ti to argue. It wouldn’t have a good effect on the kids’ minds. She was being mindful of her words and tone. She might have never taken interest in kids before but she knew what a single word could do to an innocent heart and mind.
"Look, little Juan... That’s your biased and crazy godmother. See, how she is showering all the love on little Bao but doesn’t even care that little Juan is also here." Jie spoke as if he was talking to his daughter but everyone could tell who was supposed to hear those words.
Ru rolled her eyes at him and said, "Give her to . This godmother is not biased at all. I was waiting for her to stop crying. You know how much I despise tears."
"I know," Xu y raised her hand to announce. "How can I forget the way you used to glare at whenever I cried? It was beyond scary."
Ru cleared her throat and said, "Hold my little bunny for a while."
Xu y extended her hands to take Little Bao from Ru’s arms but the little guy wasn’t complying at all. The collar of Ru’s dress was tightly fisted in little Bao’s small hand as he refused to let go. "Little Bao, let Sensei go." Xu y tried to coo a bit but the little guy didn’t listen. He looked at Ru with such glossy eyes that Ru’s heart shook violently.
She held him back and said, "You can let go. I can hold both of them." For a second, she thought he was gonna cry and her heart didn’t feel at ease. It was like a protective feeling in her rose and she didn’t want to see a single tear in his eyes. She adjusted little Bao in one arm and took little Juan from Jie who was looking at her curiously. Her brown eyes were a shade darker than her brother but they held the sa curiosity.
On the sidelines, when Xiao Zhiren saw this interaction he was too stunned to even move. Never even in his wildest dreams had he imagined to see Ru like this with anyone. She seed so natural with the twins. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that he was feeling apprehensive and envious of them.
"Haiz! Now, I finally figured it out," Xiao Zhiren sighed out anxiously.
"What did you figure out, Mr. Xiao?" It was Jie’s question.
"I finally found my real love rival. It’ll be hard to get her attention if your son is involved," he said thoughtfully. "I suddenly don’t have a wish for kids. What if they stole my little chili?"
Jie laughed out hearing Xiao Zhiren’s own worries. It was funny seeing a grown man fighting for attention. And the rival was a two years old boy. In a way, he could understand Xiao Zhiren’s feelings better. He was also feeling like that last night when he saw the look in Ru’s eyes.
It was like she was ready to bring the whole bloody world at his son’s feet. Just what kind of God forsaken connection did they have?
Xiao Zhiren walked behind Ru and said, "Love, am I ever gonna be hugged like this?"
Ru scowled at him saying, "Don’t tell you’re even jealous of these kids? I’m their godmother. Do you know what that ans?" Xiao Zhiren stayed quiet to hear her reply. "That ans, I have the official right to spoil them. Hehe... I finally have a chance to train soone to be as wicked as ."
Xiao Zhiren shook his head at her excitent and kissed her head saying, "They both are really cute."
"Aren’t they?" Ru spoke with a sparkle in her eyes which Xiao Zhiren couldn’t look away from.
While they were lost in their own world, another person who ca to witness this scene was left dumbfounded. "Bro, when did you have two kids? You didn’t even tell your brother. I’m hurt."
Xiao Zhiren looked at his brother and punched his arm saying, "Think before you speak, Ran Zi."
Ji Syaoran shrugged his shoulders and said, "It’s not my fault that you guys made a picture-perfect family. Anybody can get the wrong idea."
"Picture perfect?" Xiao Zhiren questioned.
Ji Syaoran nodded and said, "Yup. You looking at Queenie with a loving gaze and Queenie holding two little buns with a gentle look while leaning her head on your shoulder. Isn’t that what a picture-perfect family looks like? Although I never experienced it, I’m sure this is the one."
"Syaoran, you’re disturbing my godson and goddaughter." Hearing Ru’s voice, Ji Syaoran imdiately zipped his lips and locked it before throwing the key in the sea. He still rembered the badass Ru from last night. He had no wish to beco to get on her wrong side. She was the dangerous territory, he had no wish to trudge through.
