Jiujiu frowned, "My son is still young. I may not be able to leave. Can you change the caretaker?"
Li Xiao actually wanted to say that she could put Gu Xiaobao in her house. But thinking that he had no substantial relationship with Jiujiu, she could only make a suggestion as a reference, "Why don't you ask your family to help you take care of your son for two days?"
Jiujiu smiled bitterly. She raised her hand to touch Gu Xiaobao's little head and said in a low voice, "It's not convenient for me to stay at home. How about this? Can you help me see if there are any familiar nannies? I'll help Xiaobao find a nanny."
Although Jiujiu didn't say why it was inconvenient, Li Xiao understood quickly.
Pregnancy out of wedlock was a scandal. When Jiujiu said it was inconvenient, it probably meant that her family had cut off their relationship with her because of this matter. Thinking of this, Li Xiao couldn't help but say, "Why don't you put Xiaobao in my house for two days?"
After Li Xiao finished speaking, she realized that she was a little rash. She quickly added, "My parents are retired now. They have nothing to do at home. They can help take care of him for two days."
Jiujiu blinked. She thought for a while and agreed.
After Jiujiu hung up the phone, she turned her head and saw Gu Xiaobao staring at her with a pair of big and bright eyes. Seeing that she looked over, Gu Xiaobao immediately asked mischievously, "Mom, was it my new dad who called just now?"
Jiujiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry when Gu Xiaobao called her new dad. She raised her hand to rub Gu Xiaobao's little head and said with a smile, "Where did you learn this? What new dad and old dad?"
"Mom, I'm already eight years old. I'm not a four or five-year-old kid anymore. I'm already sensible. You don't have to hide it from me."
Gu Xiaobao blinked her large eyes that were similar to Jiujiu's. She looked at Jiujiu and said, "I know, I'm different from other children. I don't have a father. But Mom, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who would pester you endlessly. As long as Mom has someone you like, I'll treat him as my father."
After Gu Xiaobao finished speaking, he patted Jiujiu's shoulder like an old man and walked to the kitchen like an adult.
Jiujiu: "…"
Gu Xiaobao even used the word 'pester endlessly'. It was obvious that Gu Xiaobao thought highly of her finding a partner.
She originally thought that if she really wanted to be with Li Xiao, Gu Xiaobao would definitely be a big obstacle. But she didn't expect Gu Xiaobao to not object at all. It was really a surprise that came too suddenly and she couldn't accept it.
After eating and drinking, Jiujiu helped Gu Xiaobao with his homework. Then, she told Gu Xiaobao that she was going on a business trip on Friday and that she was going to leave Gu Xiaobao at his new dad's house for two days.
Hearing that Jiujiu was going on a business trip for two days, Gu Xiaobao instantly felt a little reluctant to part with her.
Although he was already sensible now, Gu Xiaobao's mood was especially terrible at the thought of leaving Jiujiu for two days.
After Jiujiu finished speaking, Gu Xiaobao immediately reached out and hugged Jiujiu's neck, unwilling to let go. His attachment to her was beyond words.
Jiujiu patted Gu Xiaobao's back and explained softly, "Xiaobao, Mommy can't bear to part with you either. But this is Mommy's job. If Mommy doesn't work, how can Mommy raise Xiaobao and find a wife for Xiaobao? Plus, Mommy is only going for two days. I'll come back on the weekend to bring Xiaobao home. Mommy knows that Xiaobao is a strong and good child, okay? "
"Yes, Xiaobao knows. Xiaobao will wait for Mommy to come back obediently." Even though he had already accepted this fact, Gu Xiaobao's expression was still particularly depressed. He looked at Jiujiu's expression as if he was about to cry.
They hadn't even separated yet, but Gu Xiaobao was already on the verge of crying. Jiujiu could almost imagine what Gu Xiaobao would look like when she was about to leave.
After hanging up Jiujiu's call, Li Xiao immediately went to tell his parents that he would send his colleague's son over for two days on Friday.
The father of Li Xiao and his mother's first reaction when they heard that Li Xiao would send his colleague's son over for two days was not to worry about whether the child would be naughty and annoying, but to criticize Li Xiao in all kinds of ways.
"Look at you. His colleague is almost the same as you. He already has an eldest son. Look at you, a big boss of a company. You're almost thirty years old now, but you're still single. Even if you don't find it embarrassing, I do."
Li Xiao: "Mom, clean up that small room tomorrow and let my colleague's son live there."
The mother of Li Xiao looked at Li Xiao impatiently and said impatiently, "I know, I know."
Li Xiao saw that his mother seemed to be about to say that he didn't have a girlfriend again, so he immediately said that he had something to do at the company and ran back to his room.
The mother of Li Xiao saw Li Xiao run away before she could say anything. She angrily glared at Li Xiao's father and said, "It's all your fault. You got married late, and now your son got married late. If your son got married at thirty-four years old like you, when can I hold my eldest grandson?"
The father of Li Xiao smiled good-naturedly and said, "If I didn't get married late, would I be able to marry such a good wife like you?"
The mother of Li Xiao didn't expect that her words could make The father of Li Xiao, who had always been dull, say sweet words. She blushed and looked at The father of Li Xiao angrily, but the corners of her mouth curved up very sweetly.
In the next two days, as usual, Jiujiu sent Gu Xiaobao to school in the morning and picked him up in the afternoon.
Because the flight was on Friday night, Jiujiu went directly with Li Xiao to pick up Gu Xiaobao. They planned to send Gu Xiaobao to Li Xiao's home and then go directly to the airport.
Because both of them were bosses, it was reasonable for them to be absent from work.
When Jiujiu arrived at the school gate, Gu Xiaobao had just finished school.
Because he was going on a business trip today, Gu Xiaobao's mood had been particularly depressed. However, when he saw Jiujiu as soon as he walked out of the classroom, he immediately threw himself into Jiujiu's arms. He hugged Jiujiu's waist and said coquettishly, "Mom, you're here. I missed you so much."
"I just saw you this morning." Jiujiu tapped the tip of Gu Xiaobao's little nose. She carried Gu Xiaobao's schoolbag in her hand and held Gu Xiaobao's hand as they walked out of the school gate.
In the past, although Jiujiu picked up Gu Xiaobao, she would always wait for Gu Xiaobao at the school gate. Today, Jiujiu walked directly into the school. Gu Xiaobao quickly thought of something. He raised his head and asked Jiujiu, "Mom, is my new dad coming today?"
Jiujiu: "…"
However, before Jiujiu could say anything, Gu Xiaobao saw Li Xiao standing in front of Jiujiu's car. When he saw Li Xiao, Gu Xiaobao immediately turned into a little bomb and threw himself into Li Xiao's arms. Because he was not tall enough, he could only hug Li Xiao's thigh.
Gu Xiaobao raised his head and revealed eight neat little teeth. He said sweetly to Li Xiao, "Dad."
