Locking himself up, Xiao Bai refused to let anyone in. It was only till s.h.i.+ Guang went over that he allowed her to enter.
When he saw s.h.i.+ Guang, he pouted his lips and greeted aggrievedly, “Little auntie!”
s.h.i.+ Guang patted him on the head consolingly. “What happened? Why are you locking yourself in the room?”
“Daddy is a baddie! Lu Yanzhi is a baddie! Super big baddie!”
s.h.i.+ Guang wanted to laugh out at how Xiao Bai was scolding Yanzhi so seriously. To her, it was super cute. But, she knew she should not have such thoughts as she coughed out. “Be good, don’t be upset anymore. Shall I bring you out to play?”
Xiao Bai shook his head obstinately. “No! I want to be upset! I want to be upset at Lu Yanzhi the baddie! I’m not a three-year-old, and he lied to me that I have no mother! If I don’t have a mother, where did I pop out from?”
s.h.i.+ Guang brushed his tiny nose and made fun of him. “Perhaps you were picked up from the trash?”
Xiao Bai pouted his lips. “Granny said the same thing too. I’m not from the tras.h.!.+ All adults are liars!”
The more he said, he more upset he got as his eyes reddened as well. “Mummy had never picked me up from school once, and daddy does it rarely as well. It’s always granny doing so. Little fatty is always laughing at me for not being loved by my parents.”
As s.h.i.+ Guang heard that, she felt her heart wrench. “It’s not that your daddy doesn’t want to pick you up. He’s too busy…”
Xiao Bai cut through her words. “What about mummy? Why do all my other friends have a mummy and I don’t have one? I don’t want to be someone picked up from the trash…”
Remarks that were meant to scare kids could sometimes seem like the horrifying truth in the eyes of smarter children.
s.h.i.+ Guang apologized guiltily, “Of course, you’re not picked up from the trash. I was only talking nonsense just now, trying to make a joke…”
“BOOHOO!” Xiao Bai wailed out as he hugged s.h.i.+ Guang and bawled miserably. “But, it’s real that mummy doesn’t want me…!”
s.h.i.+ Guang hugged him tightly with a pained heart. “Of course, that’s not real.”
“Then why has my mummy never appeared?! Is it because I’m too detestable?” Xiao Bai was distraught.
“Of course not! Our dear Xiao Bai is so obedient and cute.! How could your mummy not want you? Your mummy must be lost and just couldn’t find you for the time being.” s.h.i.+ Guang hugged him tenderly.
“For real?” Xiao Bai looked at her hopefully.
“Of course! Didn’t you say in the past that only lead characters would get amnesia? Your mummy must definitely be a lead character in life and has lost her memories! Once she recalls who you are, she will definitely come looking for you!”
“But, what if she loses her memories forever?”
“All lead characters would regain their memories one day.”
With s.h.i.+ Guang’s consolation, Xiao Bai felt much more a.s.sured, and tagged along her for the rest of the day. At night, he even requested to sleep with her.
Because of that, Xiao Bai acted coquettishly before Lu Yanchen. “Little uncle, I love you!” He then pounced onto Lu Yanchen like an octopus.
Looking at the helpless s.h.i.+ Guang at the side, Lu Yanchen instantly knew what was up. He rejected firmly. “No.”
“Little uncle, you’re the best!”
“Little uncle, daddy is a baddie!”
“Little uncle, little uncle! I love you so much…!”
s.h.i.+ Guang felt her heart fluttering at how Xiao Bai was acting cute to Lu Yanchen. However, he would have none of it as gave his brother a call right away.
Before long, Lu Yanzhi came over, and despite Xiao Bai’s cries and objections, whisked him back to his own room.
