Chapter 993: Let's Put on a Show
ood before How come she isn't even shedding a tear now""That's right, even if you raise a kitten or puppy, you wouldn't want to let go, would you""You actually believe those online rumors They're all...Ye Zehan lightly raised his eyes, his gaze fixed on Xiao Xingxing.
After a while, he spoke in a low voice, "Let's put on a play."
Acting
A flicker of astonishment crossed Xiang Wan's eyes, and for a moment, she found herself struggling to understand Ye Zehan's words.
But when she saw Ye Zehan's eyes, her heart inexplicably calmed down.
It felt like she had returned to when she first entered the Xiang Group, a clueless newbie who was often schemed against in the business world.
Just when she was at her most helpless, it was He Hanchuan who stayed by her side the whole time, gently telling her, "Don't be afraid, I and the children will always be by your side, accompany you through this."
Xiang Wan's heart felt as if it were about to melt.
Now, this familiar feeling is back again.
……
As the sky grew dark.
Little Xingxing fell asleep in bed for just a little while, and then she woke up from her sleep. She ran barefoot into the living room, excited and called out,
"Mommy, Mommy!"
Hearing her movement, Xiang Wan walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate of roast chicken. "Here you are, honey, you're awake"
The little star looked at the roasted chicken in her hand, and her saliva was about to flow out of her mouth.
"Wow, that smells good."
"Little glutton," Xiang Wan shook her head helplessly, "I saw your aunt's post on social media from abroad. She said it was Christmas Eve today, so she made a roast chicken to represent the meaning of family reunion. I also tried making one, would you like to come down and eat"
"Wow!"
The little star nodded vigorously.
Being young, she rushed downstairs and as soon as she tasted the roasted chicken, everything else— her father, what he had said... all faded away completely.
"Good job."
Little Star had her mouth full of oil, but she didn't forget to give Xiangwan a thumbs up.
向晚 chuckled helplessly.
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open, and He Ze Yan walked in from outside.
"You, you're just a little glutton. As long as there's food for you, you forget everything else."
"Brother!"
The little star exclaimed excitedly, "You're back! Wow, are you not busy today"
"Hmm." Liu Niancheng nodded. "It's not that busy. It's Christmas Eve today, so I wanted to come back and celebrate with you all."
"Great! Long live, big brother!" Little Star clapped her hands excitedly.
"Towards evening was also very happy, she waved at him, "Baby, come here, try the roast chicken Mommy cooked, does it meet your taste"
"Mhm." He Ze Yan nodded.
As he spoke, he put down the bag in his hand and walked to the dining table.
Then he picked up a pair of chopsticks, tasted the roasted chicken and replied contentedly, "It's delicious."
That's good.
Wawawa was overjoyed.
To receive the approval of these two little ones, for a mother, it wouldn't be considered time wasted.
"Mommy, I know your body is weak," He Ze said softly, lowering his head. "So please don't keep making us all these meals. You should rest more."
"Mommy knows." Xiang Wan patted his head, a tenderness in her eyes. "Don't worry, I will."
"But today is Christmas Day, and other children all have their parents with them. I can't let you go home empty-handed either, so I made these treats for you. It was my pleasure."
Hearing Xiang Wan's words, He Ze Yan pursed his lips and didn't say anything more.
向晚 sat between two children, raising her hand to touch their hair and smiling as she reminded them, "Eat quickly, in a while I'll take you to assemble the Christmas tree. Tomorrow is Christmas Day, after all, and we can't let our little star go to kindergarten empty-handed, can we"
"Great!"
Little Star's thoughts are simple, and she never overthinks anything.
She was swirling the spoon in her hand, her eyes sparkling.
She only knows that she has her mommy with her, even if she goes to kindergarten to hand in her work, she doesn't have to worry about being at the bottom.
Soon, dinner was over.
The bodyguard took the Christmas tree out and placed it by the window.
towards evening stretched out her hand to hug the two children tightly, taking out all the parts and materials, and began assembling the Christmas tree.
He Ze Yan was very smart, his reaction even faster than Xiang Wan's. Soon, he had assembled half of the Christmas tree.
Before long, he found himself in trouble again.
Because he just couldn't install the electronic products properly.
He Ze Yan realized this, stroking his chin and letting out a helpless sigh.
"It's okay, sweetie," Xiangwan gently patted his head and smiled reassuringly, "Even if you can't assemble it, it's alright. No one will blame you."
And the little star beside her, upon hearing Mommy's words, thought that it was her brother who couldn't assemble it, and she wouldn't be able to hand in her work tomorrow. Suddenly, her little mouth pouted, and she burst into tears with a "waah!"
Her little feet stomped on the ground, and she cried out in grievance.
"No, don't say that. I want a Christmas tree, I don't want to be laughed at by my teacher and classmates."
"Don't worry, no one will laugh at you," Liu Niancheng stepped forward and said helplessly, "It's not impossible to assemble, trust your brother, okay"
"Really"
The little star looked up at him, sighed helplessly, "If father were here, it would be great! He must have a way!"
When mentioning his father, a hint of sadness appeared in He Ze's eyes.
"Who's calling me"
Just then, a deep male voice suddenly rang out.
The gate of the He family was slowly pushed open, and Ye Zehan walked in from outside.
Outside, it seemed to be snowing. The wind and frost had soaked through his coat, and he rushed over in a dust-covered state.
Even like this, Little Star saw him at once, and excitedly cried out,
"Daddy!"
She hurried to the door, her big, bright eyes blinking in disbelief as she looked at him.
"How come, you don't recognize me" Ye Zehan squatted down and stroked her hair.
"No." Little Star shook her head. "Are you really Daddy But he's been gone for so many years, how could he possibly come back You must be lying to me, right"
"Silly child," Ye Zehan touched her head, helplessly reminding her, "Even if I wanted to lie to you, my face can't deceive you."
"Not a mask"
Ye Zehan couldn't help but laugh after hearing it.
He suddenly felt that this little girl, despite her young age, was very smart.
"Is it a mask or not You'll know if you touch it."
After she said that, Little Star really lifted her hand and grabbed his cheek. "Wow, it's really not fake! You are really Daddy!"irmly against his brow, trying to alleviate the look of fatigue."Zehan, are you feeling unwell somewhere" Milan approached him at that moment, holding a bottle of water in her hand, and said in a low...
