Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Although Li Sicheng had three children calling him “Dad,” he didn’t feel fully immersed in his role as a father.
The role of a father had felt far beyond his reach. If he could have another child, one that he could be present for right from the start, perhaps the feeling would change.
Si Qianci gazed at him and stood on her tiptoes to kiss him on his lips. “I love you, Mr. Li.”
Li Sicheng embraced her. As he rested his forehead on hers, he smiled wordlessly.

The next few days pa.s.sed uneventfully.
Yu Lili stayed at home at took care of the housework and the three meals daily. There wasn’t much difference between her and a usual housewife.
She had applied for marital leave from Eurasian Comics for a while and was happily drawing a salary while she took her temporary break. Everyone in the office knew that Yu Lili had married the big boss of Eurasian Holdings, so it made no difference whether she turned up for work or not.
Yu Lili had the habit of jogging in the mornings. Although she lived in the same estate as Su Qianci, it was rare for her to b.u.mp to Su Qianci in the morning. Instead, she constantly met Li Sicheng.
Li Sicheng was out jogging with the three children. The three children were chasing each other. Li Jianyue was chubby and round. She had been fed to the point of tubbiness. She was panting hard as she ran, and her face was red as a tomato.
When she noticed Yu Lili, she called out in surprise, “Auntie Lili!”
The little child ran over to Yu Lili, all the while yelling, “Auntie Lili, over here!”
Yu Lili stopped in her steps and looked toward Li Jianyue as she said, “Good morning!”
Li Sicheng was with the two boys. When he saw Li Jianyue run over to Yu Lili, he didn’t give it a second thought. He nodded to Yu Lili as a form of greeting and continued on his run with the kids.
Yu Lili watched as the boys ran with their father. They painted a happy picture of harmony.
Li Jianyue was happy to be able to rest and greeted Yu Lili, “Good morning, Auntie!”
The little girl was dressed in short sleeves. The meat on her arms was like dinner rolls. She looked so cute.
Yu Lili stroked her arm and asked, “Where’s your mommy?”
“Mommy is sleeping at home. Daddy said that Mommy has to sleep more now that she has a little baby in her tummy,” Li Jianyue explained giddily.
Yu Lili was surprised when she heard that. “Your mommy is pregnant again?”
“Yeah!” Li Jianyue was bubbling with excitement. She whispered conspiratorially, “Now that Mommy has a little baby, she won’t have time to teach me my work anymore. Daddy said he’s going to send me to school. Heh heh, I’m about to go to grade one!”
In a little child’s world, happiness and unhappiness were such simple things.
Yu Lili laughed and stood up, saying, “Come, I’ll take you to your Dad.”
“OK! Auntie, can we walk there instead?” Li Jianyue asked.
“You have to run in order to be healthy. Only then will you be able to take care of your future brother or sister. You’re going to be an older sister soon!” Yu Lili cajoled her laughingly, but the emotions in her heart were complex.
Su Qianci was pregnant again… How blissful…
Yu Lili’s lips were turned up in a smile, but unspeakable desolation filled her eyes.
The little girl didn’t notice the change in Yu Lili’s mood. She had only heard what was said. With a nod of her head she agreed. “That’s right. I have to take care of my brother or sister. Let’s go!”
She didn’t wait for Yu Lili before taking off on her own.
Yu Lili laughed and ran to catch up with her as she yelled, “Slow down!”
