The man looked at the bedside table in confusion. He took two steps forward and sat in front of the bed. He stretched out his slender fingers and opened the lid of the wooden box. The lid was heavy.
The moment the lid was opened, he felt a dark light flash past.
He paused and opened the lid completely. He saw the jade ornament and the bronze medal. He picked up the jade ornament. With just a glance, he knew that this jade ornament was not an ordinary pendant, but a waist pendant that symbolizes ident.i.ty.
There were words carved on it, but he did not recognize them.
Then, he picked up the bronze medal and looked at it a few more times.
While Fu Tingyu was looking at the gift, Qin Shu helped Xiao Jiu put on the clothes. It was slightly bigger, but the style was pretty. With Xiao Jiu’s little appearance, it was extremely cute.
Xiao Jiu was biting the corner of the quilt when Qin Shu scooped him up, he was not happy with that.
A pair of pitch-black eyes stared at Qin Shu without even blinking.
After putting on his clothes, Qin Shu picked Xiao Jiu up and showed it to the man as if she was showing a treasure. “Baby Yu, do you think Xiao Jiu looks good in this outfit?”
The man looked up at the girl and saw his son wearing that outfit. A pair of pitch-black eyes stared at him curiously. To be more precise, he was staring at the two things in his hands.
Children were curious about new things, but he didn’t let his son play with them because they weren’t toys.
“They’re pretty nice.” He put the two things in the box and closed them.
“I think they’re pretty nice too.” Qin Shu turned her head to look at Xiao Jiu. “Xiao Jiu, aren’t these clothes very comfortable to wear?”
Xiao Jiu tilted his head to look at Qin Shu. “Yiya,” he said something that she didn’t understand.
The man looked at the time on his watch. It was nine o’clock at night. He looked up at his wife who was still playing with her son and said, “Xiao Jiu should go to bed.”
“But Xiao Jiu isn’t sleepy.” Qin Shu looked at her son who was laughing non-stop. He didn’t feel sleepy at all.
“Then you should go to bed.” The man got up and went to prepare the milk.
Qin Shu looked at the man’s back and then lowered her head to continue playing with her son.
After a while, the man came over with the milk. “Give Xiao Jiu to me.” As he spoke, his hand had reached out and taken his son out of his wife’s arms. He turned around and placed him on the dining chair, then casually handed the bottle to his son. He let him hold the bottle and drink it himself.
Qin Shu watched the man’s actions in one smooth motion. She looked at her son, his two small hands holding the handle of the bottle tightly. With the pacifier in his mouth, he drank the milk while staring at the man, looking very wrong.
“Xiao Jiu is only about three months old. Don’t ask for too much.”
“You have to start from a young age.” The man retracted his gaze, turned around, and walked to his wife. He held her hand and walked into the bathroom. “Let’s take a shower together.”
Qin Shu stood up and pointed at her son on the dining chair. “Xiao Jiu is still drinking milk.”
“Let him get used to drinking alone,” the man said. He pulled her into the bathroom and closed the door.
Qin Shu:”…” Xiao Jiu was only three months old and he had to learn to drink alone?
Xiao Jiu, who was drinking milk, stared at the closed bathroom door with a dumbfounded expression!
In the bathroom.
Qin Shu looked at the man in front of her and said in a more serious tone, “Xiao Jiu was three months old.”
“Yeah, I know.” The man began to unb.u.t.ton his shirt.
“…” Qin Shu: “Then he still needs to get used to drinking alone?”
“He can take the bottle himself,” the man said.
“Even if he can take the bottle himself, so what? He still needs his parents to accompany him, right?” Qin Shu asked him back.
“Then you didn’t see me when I was young.” The man threw his coat into the clothes basket at the side.
“What happened to you when you were young?” Qin Shu looked at the man in puzzlement. She suddenly remembered that aloof man, his father, who loved his wife very much.
“If you are asking so many questions, why don’t you hurry up and take a shower? Xiao Jiu might fall asleep on the dining chair after drinking the milk,” the man kindly reminded her.
Qin Shu thought it made sense, but she was thinking that the man was changing the topic.
When she came out of the shower and saw Xiaojiu on the dining chair, she had been worried for nothing.
Xiaojiu didn’t fall asleep after drinking the milk. Instead, he waved the bottle in his hand and had a good time.
The man saw his son’s excitement and was afraid that the girl would continue to tease him. “I’ll carry Xiao Jiu to the crib.”
With that, he walked over, picked Xiao Jiu up from the dining chair, and walked to the crib in the cubicle.
Because Xiao Jiu was too young, no one knew if he cried alone in the room, so there was a s.p.a.ce in the master bedroom for the crib.
He put his son in the crib and pulled the blanket over him to cover him.
Xiao Jiu’s eyes were wide open as he stared at Fu Tingyu as if he wanted him to play with him.
“Sleep well.” The man turned around and left after saying that.
Qin Shu was standing outside. When she saw the man come out, she asked, “Is Xiao Jiu asleep?”
“No, let him have the habit of sleeping alone.”
Qin Shu:”…”
Alone???
The man stretched out his arm and pulled his wife into his embrace, bringing her to the bedside.
Qin Shu was still worried. She grabbed the man’s hand and said, “Isn’t this inappropriate? Xiao Jiu is only three months old…”
However, before she could finish her words, she was stopped by someone.
“Can’t you focus on me? I’m not at home all day.”
Qin Shu was amused. “You’re an adult.”
The man was displeased. “I’m your husband. You gave Xiao Jiu all your time during the day. The nighttime should be mine.”
Qin Shu blinked. She was listening to the man’s aggrieved tone, it seemed to make sense, but…
She couldn’t help but laugh. “Why are you jealous of your son?”
“My son took up ten months of your time, and he took up another month after giving birth. I’m not asking too much, am I?”
Ugh! This jealousy was so strong!
“Back then, I didn’t know who it was that kept asking me to give birth to a son. Now that I’ve given birth, you despised me.”
The man knew that he was wrong. If he knew that giving birth to a son was so painful and took up so much time, he definitely would not be in a hurry to have a child.
The man kissed her again.
Not long after, the sound of Xiao Jiu crying came from next door.
“Xiaojiu is crying.” Qin Shu subconsciously pushed the man away and got up to run next door.
The man sat on the bed and watched his wife push him away to look for his son. Just as he got up, he saw his wife walking out from next door with Xiaojiu in her arms.
“Why did you carry him over?”
“Xiao Jiu is crying. If he won’t cry if someone carries him,” Qin Shu replied without raising her head and continued to coax Xiao Jiu.
The man’s expression was calm. Why did he cry now?
After ten minutes, the man reminded her, “Xiao Jiu, don’t cry anymore.”
It was time to send him back to the next room to sleep.
“I’ll send him to the next room to sleep.” Seeing that her son was no longer crying, Qin Shu carried him to the next room and placed him in the crib. Before she could walk out, he started crying again. She could only walk back and pick him up again to continue coaxing him.
After picking him up, Xiao Jiu’s crying stopped as if she had pressed a switch.
The man walked in too, saw his wife holding his son and coaxing him..
