Chapter 2414: Happy to Be Cherished
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Most children would not have the patience to finish the puzzles. They only clamored their parents to buy for them on impulse. She got one because she saw her then colleague buying it for her child.
Two days later, after she finished her work that night, she saw a tall Eiffel Tower model standing on the table in the living room. The puzzle she had bought for her son was at an advanced level, with more than two thousand pieces of puzzle. The boy only needed two days to figure out the jigsaw puzzle by himself. She could imagine how he had spent two full days inside his room, patiently cutting and piecing the parts of the puzzle one by one.
After half a month, her then colleague complained to her about wasting hundreds of yuan to buy the puzzle. Apparently, her former co-worker’s kid lost his patience with the 3D puzzle halfway through playing it. In the end, she and her husband had to cajole and coerce the child into completing the puzzle.
Looking at her colleague’s woeful expression, the woman replied proudly, “My son completed the puzzle in two days.”
Her colleague immediately reb.u.t.ted, “No way! He must’ve done it with your help!” To which she objected, “How would I find the time to play with him? I have to work till late at night!”
“I don’t believe you!”
She then took out her cell phone to show her colleague a picture of the completed jigsaw puzzle model before the latter took her words for real.
As the other woman sized her up with a weird look, a question was thrown at her that made her laugh. “s.h.i.+s.h.i.+… how did you raise your son?”
Indeed, her son was really one-of-a-kind, and the question tickled her to no end.
“The more patient a child is, the more he’s likely to be smart.”
“That’s right. My kid has no patience at all. No toys can hold his interest for more than three days.”
The actress did not have such a problem with Youyou. The boy would painstakingly preserve the toys she got for him inside his cabinet. Every now and then, he would take them out for polis.h.i.+ng.
Even though the mother-son pair had moved houses many times, the boy hardly lost any of his treasured toys. Before moving away, he would always ensure that all his toys were kept safe and secured inside a carton.
Honestly, he was a sentimental child. He might have lost interest in these toys as he grew up but he would never have the heart to throw them away. After all, these toys were his companions during his lonely childhood.
The actress beamed to herself all of a sudden. There was nothing more blissful than knowing that her son cherished her love for him.
Whenever she saw how the boy poured his heart into taking care of the toys she got for him, she would teem with a great sense of achievement and happiness.
Regardless of romance or kins.h.i.+p, there must exist a sense of reciprocal pleasure between both parties.
Just as kids would want to please their parents, likewise, parents would want to please their children.
In this fas.h.i.+on, with the store clerks busily exchanging tips on parenting and expressing their envy at her, they helped her into the mermaid dress.
When the actress reemerged from the changing room, they could not help exclaiming with wide-eyed wonderment!
“Ms. Yun, your boy has a good aesthetic sense, indeed! The mermaid dress really brings out your charm and beauty!”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
“I mean it! You really look good!”
The moment she pushed the door open, Youyou dashed to her excitedly. He was stunned at the sight at first, then slowly, he circled her a few times while nodding and sizing her up with great satisfaction.
“Mommy, you look better in this dress compared to the one earlier!”
Mu Yazhe and Little Yichen turned their heads to look at her and their eyes displayed their pleasant surprise simultaneously
“WOW!”
