"You are trying to protect an innocent man from the horrible truth of his father," Zhenyi said, caressing his face. "I don't hate you. I don't see a reason for hating you. Ryuu did what he thought was right. You are doing what is right. I don't mind. Also, Bà texted to inform that he was expecting us for dinner at his place. Also, he is missing Zian. It's been a month since he saw his precious grandson."
Long Jie shook his head as if he couldn't understand his father-in-law. "Doesn't Bà feel tired? He had three grandsons and a granddaughter. Still, he is missing Zian? How does he even have the energy to keep up with four over-energetic kids?"
Zhenyi rolled her eyes. "If the country doesn't have a three kids policy, I'm sure Bà will have a ho full of little grandchildren." Long Jie choked on air as he heard his wife say.
"Zhenyi, how can you talk about Ryuu like that?"
"Co on, Jie, you know that I am right," Zhenyi said, shrugging. She couldn't understand how Alcina and Ryuu had so much ti and energy to produce two children in three years when she was having a hard ti raising one. Ryuu and Alcina had another son nad Tang Nanxian.
"Da. Da. Da." Zian ca running to Long Jie and grabbed his hand. He was trying to pull his dad with him. "Play. Ziu. Say. Play."
Long Jie looked at his wife and smiled at her. He let Zian take him where his son wanted to. When he saw what Zian wanted to say, he shook his head, "You want to try swing? It's dangerous, son."
Nope. He wasn't going to let his son try this dangerous wing even if it was for children.
Not at all.
What if his son fell down and hurt himself?
Zian was such an easily satisfied child that he didn't know how to be stubborn like his mom. Instead of throwing a tantrum like other kids, he gave his father a big innocent smile as he opened his arms and waved them up and down. He knew that stubbornness and tantrum didn't work for his parent. He used another approach that would surely work, "Dada. Ziu. Bub. Uh. Now. Da. Da. Swing."
Now how in hell Long Jie was supposed to say no to his son?
You see, this boy was his only child. Soone he loved and cared for more than anyone else. If Zian wanted to try this wing, he would just let him as long as it was safe.
"I love you too, my dear but can you not use it every ti I say no to you?" Long Jie made him sit on the child's safe swing and begged him. "I can't even tell people that my son just smiles at and says how much he loves and I lose my resolve. Your sweetness and your mom is bad for my resolve."
"Dada. Ziu bub. Uh." Zian shouted in excitent as Long Jie pushed the swing safely.
"Yeah. Yeah. Dada loves Zian too," Long Jie said, rolling his eyes. He would never tell anyone how much he felt warmth in his heart whenever Zian said he loved him.
Long Jie had never enjoyed this ti with his own parents. Neither Song Lily nor Long Shaoming gave him the love he always craves for. But this was sothing he never wanted for his son.
When Long Jie was taught about responsibilities and duties as a mber of the Long family, he would teach his son what loving and caring ant. Not just for others but for himself too. He wanted Zian to have all the love and familial love he and Zhenyi never received.
From a distance, Zhenyi was capturing this beautiful scene on her phone. She was the sa woman who used to run away from children. But this silly and beautiful baby of hers made her see how beautiful motherhood could be.
She didn't know what a mother's love felt like but it would be the sa as the kind of love she had for Zian, right? So days, she used to wonder if Tang Reine loved her in the sa way she loved Zian. If it was so, she wanted to hell her mom that she loved her too even when the latter wasn't with her.
"Zhenyi?" Long Jie suddenly called out her na, jolting her out of trance.
Zhenyi looked at him with a smile and raised her brows. He waved at her asking her to co over and she found her feet walking to him on instinct. She would always go to him no matter where he was because she belonged to him in the sa way he belonged to her. They were made for each other. Even though the way they t was quite a cliche, she ended up falling for this man. And today, she was living her happily ever after with him.
"Co sit on the swing. I will push you," Long Jie once she reached him.
"What?!" Zhenyi laughed. "I'm not a child."
"I know you are not! You know what, Cat eyes? We both have a child in our hearts that didn't co out. Let's give that child a ti to co out. Let's behave like a child with our child," Long Jie said with a smile and made Zhenyi sit on the swing as he pushed her in the air making her laugh and giggle endlessly.
"My dear dangerous wife, I love you!" Long Jie shouted as Zian danced on his legs at his mom's giggle.
"And Mr Long, I love you more!" Zhenyi shouted as both Long Jie and Zian laughed and giggled with her.
"Ma. Da. Zian. Bub. Uh!" This was Zian copying his parents.
Aiyoo, how they forget him.
"We love you the most, Zian!" Both Zhenyi and Long Jie said at the sa ti, with the most beautiful smile on their faces.
