Lin Ran averted her eyes, not daring to look. Her heart ached if she did.
The guilt she felt towards Ji Yun flashed before her eyes one by one, making her heart wrench.
Cen Mo placed the photo back into the box, closed the lid, and said to Lin Ran, "Help me pass a message to Mom. Thank her for the gift! I'm very grateful. "
Lin Ran nodded and didn't say anything else. She left without even staying for dinner that day.
…
On New Year's Eve, it snowed heavily in Haicheng again. Early in the morning, the entire city was covered in white.
Tuan Tuan leaned against the French windows, looking at the pure white outside as he bounced into Lin Nuan and Fu Huai 'an's room. "Papa! Mama! Snow! "
Little Candy, Little Happy, and Tuan Tuan had already made a promise. They said that the next time it snowed, the three of them would eat tangerines together.
But Tuan Tuan still knew that today was New Year's Eve. Uncle had said that Tuan Tuan would be spending it with Papa, Mama, Uncle, and Aunt.
Lin Nuan and Fu Huai 'an had already woken up. The two of them were standing in front of the French windows, looking at the snow. Lin Nuan was holding a steaming cup of milk in her hands. She turned around when she heard Tuan Tuan's voice.
Lin Nuan waved at Tuan Tuan …
The little one blushed in embarrassment and bounced over to grab his mama's slender fingers. He looked up at his mama, then his gaze landed on her tummy, hoping that the little baby would be obedient in his mama's tummy and not torment her.
"Little Candy already called. She said that the two of you and Little Happy agreed to eat tangerines when it snowed, right?" Lin Nuan squatted down and stroked Tuan Tuan's little head as she asked.
The little one's fluffy hair was messed up. His gaze landed on the cup of milk in Lin Nuan's hands, and he nodded.
"Tuan Tuan, do you want to drink it?"
The little one nodded again.
Lin Nuan blew at it slowly, then brought the milk to Tuan Tuan's mouth. The little one held onto Lin Nuan's other hand tightly, drinking a big mouthful of milk as Lin Nuan handed him the cup. His little face was bulging, and there was a milk mustache around his mouth.
After swallowing the milk, Tuan Tuan smiled in satisfaction, his dark eyes crinkling as he smiled at Lin Nuan. "Delicious!"
Lin Nuan, who was tickled, said to Tuan Tuan, "But today is Chinese New Year's Eve, so Mama and Little Candy's Mama said to move it to the sixth day of the Chinese New Year. When the time comes, let Little Happy and Little Candy come to our house as guests and eat tangerines together, okay?"
Fu Huai 'an looked at his son and clicked his tongue in disdain. He drew a tissue and wiped Tuan Tuan's mouth.
Cen Mo and Fu Huai 'an didn't forget about the tradition of Chinese New Year's Eve. He placed Tuan Tuan, who was dressed like a ball, on his neck and asked him to paste couplets.
Song Yao, who had wrapped herself into a ball, stood at the door and directed Tuan Tuan and Cen Mo to paste the couplets. Although the couplets were pasted crookedly, the whole house had the atmosphere of the Spring Festival.
Tuan Tuan stood beside Cen Mo's long legs and looked at the crooked couplets he had pasted. He was very satisfied with himself. Even though the couplets were not neatly pasted, Mama had said that he was still young …
Thinking of this, Tuan Tuan smiled happily. Tuan Tuan was wearing thick clothes, and it was strenuous to paste the couplets just now. At this moment, he was already sweating, and there was a faint steaming posture on top of his head. His little face looked more and more like a white and tender little bun that had just been baked.
"Do you want to have a snowball fight, Tuan Tuan? Aunt will be the judge for you and Uncle. How about you and Uncle have a snowball fight? "Song Yao squatted down and asked Tuan Tuan.
Tuan Tuan thought about it and shook his head. "Not fair!"
After saying that, Tuan Tuan jogged into the house. In less than a minute, the little one, who had removed his thick down jacket, came out while tugging at Fu Huai 'an's trouser leg. As he walked, he pointed in the direction of the door and called out, "Papa … Papa … Papa …"
Tuan Tuan, who had brought along reinforcements, pulled Fu Huai 'an out. His chubby little finger pointed at the snow in the distance, then he looked up at Fu Huai' an and said, "Snowball fight! Papa and Uncle … that's fair! "
Song Yao almost couldn't hold back her laughter. "Then if Papa and Uncle have a snowball fight, Tuan Tuan won't be able to play!"
Tuan Tuan opened his black eyes wide and thought about it seriously. He then nodded and said clearly, "Tuan Tuan will accompany Mama!"
Cen Mo was rendered speechless.
Hur hur, Cen Mo only wanted to have a snowball fight with Tuan Tuan. What was with him having a snowball fight with a grown man like Fu Huai 'an?
Cen Mo refused!
Fu Huai 'an smiled politely and didn't lose his poise. Just the thought of him and Cen Mo having a snowball fight in the snow was comical and funny. He lowered his gaze and looked at his son. "Tuan Tuan, Papa will send you to kindergarten!"
"Holidays!" Tuan Tuan answered seriously in a daze.
"It's okay, I'll have a class just for you!"
"Do you want to have a snowball fight?"
Lin Nuan's voice rang out. Tuan Tuan let go of Fu Huai 'an's trousers and turned to look for Lin Nuan. However, Fu Huai' an picked up the strap of Tuan Tuan's overalls. The little one fluttered in the air like a little chick, then reached out to Lin Nuan and called her Mama in an aggrieved manner.
Fu Huai 'an had already put Tuan Tuan down. He said to Tuan Tuan with rare patience, "Mama is pregnant. If you rush over to hug Mama's leg like in the past, what if Mama falls?"
Tuan Tuan nodded. "Then … I'll be careful in the future!"
Fu Huai 'an smiled and stroked Tuan Tuan's head. "Mm …"
Lin Nuan wrapped her jacket tightly around herself and came out to carry Tuan Tuan. Her down jacket was very loose, so she wrapped Tuan Tuan tightly in it. She asked Cen Mo, "Do you want to have a snowball fight?"
"I can accompany Tuan Tuan in a snowball fight, but forget about it with Fu Huai 'an!" Cen Mo didn't dare to imagine the scene of two grown men having a snowball fight in the snow. It was too beautiful … he couldn't bear to look at it.
"Then let's build a snowman!" Lin Nuan suggested. "Tuan Tuan, go back and put on your down jacket. Put on gloves and a hat, then build a snowman with Papa and Uncle, okay? Just build it at our doorstep! "
"Okay!" Tuan Tuan agreed. As long as Mama wanted to see it, he would build it for her.
Tuan Tuan, who was fully dressed, drank a mouthful of milk and went out to build a snowman for Mama with Papa and Uncle.
Song Yao and Lin Nuan sat under the roof, watching the two adults and one child get busy …
Song Yao wrapped her jacket tightly around herself and smiled at Lin Nuan. "To be honest, a few years ago, I never would have imagined that life after marriage would be like this. To think that I could actually live with my best friend! It feels so wonderful. Now, not to mention Cen Mo not letting me go out, I don't even want to go out anymore! With my best friend and such an adorable baby like Tuan Tuan, why would I go out? "
"Do you still want to learn French?" Lin Nuan suddenly asked.
Song Yao nodded. "Of course!"
Song Yao then glanced at Cen Mo, who was seriously building a snowman. She covered her mouth with one hand and said to Lin Nuan in a low voice, "Every day, when your brother isn't around during his afternoon nap, I secretly go online and teach outside. One day, when I've mastered it, I'll definitely give your brother a big shock!"
As she said this, Song Yao's eyes shone brightly, and her entire person lit up.
