The man"s sudden embrace made Tang Youyou tense up her body as well. She was still holding onto the man"s trench coat, but when she felt his head pressing against her neck, she slightly frowned.
She knew that the feeling of the man hugging her definitely wasn"t because of pa.s.sion. She could feel that the emotions the man was holding onto were very uncomfortable.
What"s wrong? Did he quarrel with the old lady?
Tang Youyou didn"t know how to comfort him, so she could only pat his back a few times. "What"s wrong now?" she asked in concern.
"Let me hold him for a moment!" The man"s voice was extremely low, and it carried a trace of unspeakable sorrow.
Tang Youyou had no choice but to say nothing and just hugged him back.
Just then, the old lady"s voice came from the stairs, "What are you two doing here? There are still children at home, it"s not quite right for you two to be like this as adults! "
The old lady"s voice directly frightened Tang Youyou. She quickly gave Ji Xiaohan a nudge.
Ji Xiaohan"s body tensed up when he heard his grandma"s voice. Then, he let go of Tang Youyou and walked towards his bedroom.
"What"s wrong with this child?" The old lady was stu
ed when she saw that Ji Xiaohan didn"t even greet her.
Tang Youyou immediately chuckled and said, "He might be a little tired from work. Grandmother, don"t mind him!"
"What do I care about him? He"s been angry at me so many times since he was young." The old lady said with a smile. She wouldn"t care about any of her grandson"s temper.
Tang Youyou chuckled. "I"ll go and see him!"
Tang Youyou then grabbed his coat and walked briskly to the bedroom.
When she opened the door, she saw a man sitting on the sofa with a dejected look on his face. His pair of dark eyes seemed to be dyed in red. Tang Youyou was greatly alarmed when she took a glance at him.
"You ?? "What"s wrong?" Tang Youyou asked softly as she walked to his side.
"I"m fine!" Ji Xiaohan looked away, not daring to let her see the tears that were about to fall from his eyes.
Yes, even someone as strong as the boss Ji could not help but cry like a child when he heard that his grandfather was leaving.
"Are you in a bad mood? If you don"t want to say it, I"ll go out first. Tang Youyou noticed that something was wrong with his mood, so she tactfully chose not to disturb him.
"En!" Ji Xiaohan really needed to be alone for a while.
When Tang Youyou turned around and left, Ji Xiaohan finally couldn"t control his i
er sadness and started crying.
Since he was young, his grandfather"s image in his heart had always been tall and unbreakable.
After his father left, his grandfather replaced his father to teach, help, and lead him step by step to where he was today, becoming as strong as he was now.
He had always thought that his grandfather would be able to accompany him for a long time. He had always thought that his grandfather would be able to accompany him for a long time.
Grandfather was an indispensable family member in his life, a mentor and an elder, and was also a source of light for his future. Ji Xiaohan"s heart was filled with scenes of him and his grandpa together. Grandpa scolded him, encouraged him, criticized him, and praised him. Every scene was filled with kindness and benevolence.
Ji Xiaohan cried for a long time before he stopped feeling sad. He got up, went into the bathroom and washed away his sorry state with cold water.
Standing in front of the mirror, he looked up and saw the cold water constantly dripping down his face. Ji Xiaohan finally suppressed his sadness and returned to his original look.
Tang Youyou went to check on the children"s homework, and as soon as the two kids came back, they began to review the homework a.s.signed by the school.
One of them was English education, and perhaps when the other children were struggling to learn, the two little ones weren"t under any pressure at all.
"Mummy, look, I cut it. Is it pretty?" Ji Xiaonai happily took out her handmade flowers and held them up, hoping to gain Mommy"s acknowledgement and praise.
"Un, it"s really pretty. However, you have to be like big brother. You have to color the flowers first and then cut them off. That way, they"ll be even more beautiful!" Tang Youyou noticed that her son was a strong fighter when it came to fighting skills.
Ji Xiaonai pouted. "Big brother, you painted such an ugly color! The flowers are pink!"
Ji Xiaorui curled his lips: "You don"t have much experience. These kinds of flowers are originally purple!"
Tang Youyou sat beside her two children. Occasionally, she would give them a few pointers and praise them. The little guy was very happy.
However, Tang Youyou was a bit absent-minded. She felt that something happened to Ji Xiaohan that made him sad. It was his recognition that made people feel like he was about to collapse.
She really felt sorry for him that way.
"Mommy, today a little kid"s mommy brought her little sister over. Her little sister is so young, just like Chengcheng"s little sister. However, she"s very cute!" As Ji Xiaonai did her manual work, her small mouth kept mumbling to herself.
"Oh, really? Do you miss Chengcheng"s little sister? " Tang Youyou immediately asked with a smile.
"No, I was wondering if I should let Mommy give birth to a little sister for me to play with!" Ji Xiaonai said seriously.
Tang Youyou was amused by her childish att.i.tude. "Could it be that the reason you want Mommy to give birth to your little sister is for you to play with?"
"Yes, she will be my follower from now on. My tail, I will be her big sister!" Ji Xiaonai said in an excited and happy tone.
Tang Youyou was instantly speechless. So this little fellow wanted to follow him around.
"Xiaonai, even if you have a little sister, you can"t bully her and can"t play with her. You have to protect her and take care of her, do you understand?" Tang Youyou urged softly.
Ji Xiaonai blinked her large eyes. "Alright then. Does that mean that Mommy has agreed to give me a sister?"
"Ugh ??"
"Mommy, just agree, okay? I beg you, I really like having a little sister!" Ji Xiaonai immediately displayed her expertise in the art of withdrawal!
Tang Youyou felt a little awkward!
"Just promise her, I think she"s serious!" A deep male voice came from behind.
Tang Youyou was stu
ed. She turned around and saw Ji Xiaohan standing at the door. Ji Xiaohan had heard her and his daughter"s conversation.
"Daddy, is it true? Can Mommy give me a little sister? " When Ji Xiaonai heard this, she was overjoyed. Since her father had already agreed to it, it would definitely be fine.
Tang Youyou"s beautiful eyes swept over the man"s face. She noticed that he no longer had the same emotions as before. She calmed down and said with a smile, "I remember that you promised your daughter that you won"t have another child!"
