Chapter 663: Chapter 656: Poor Xiao Xi
In the bedroom, Leng Yichen lay on the bed, still carrying the fragrant scent of Bai Yiranâs body. Xiao Xi lay on his abdomen, her big eyes, just like Bai Yiranâs, looked at him, glistening.
"Ah! Ah! Mua!" Xiao Xi opened her mouth, her small hands patting Leng Yichenâs chest repeatedly, calling out "mua-mua" from her mouth.
She hadnât been fully weaned from breastfeeding yet, and at this time, if Bai Yiran were home, she would be feeding her. Xiao Xiâs biological clock had always been regular, and now that Bai Yiran hadnât returned, the little foodie was starting to get anxious, striking Leng Yichen with increasing force.
"Mua! Mua!"
Leng Yichen grabbed Xiao Xiâs restless little hand, "Xiao Xi, be good, Mommy hasnât returned yet..."
His voice choked a little as he sat up and kissed his daughterâs cheek.
Xiao Xi opened her little mouth, continuing to call out "mua, mua." In her mind, she didnât understand what it meant that Mommy hadnât returned, she only knew that at this time, Mommy wasnât by her side, and she couldnât get her milk!
The little one threw a tantrum and burst into tears with a wail.
Xiao Xi cried sorrowfully, her pink-white little face turning red from crying, her small hands waving continuously, her whole body shaking along with it.
She wanted her Mommy! She wanted her milk!
Leng Yichen looked at his daughter, his eyes immediately reddening, "Daddy wants Mommy to come back too, more than anyone...
He hugged his daughter tightly, standing up and pacing back and forth, hoping to soothe her.
But Xiao Xi seemed to understand something, and cried even harder, "mua-mua!"
Hearing his daughter calling out for her mommy and crying so heartbrokenly, Leng Yichen could no longer suppress the pain in his heart.
Outside the door, Leng Liewei, Cheng Gang, Xia Lian, and Sister Liu heard Xiao Xiâs cries clearly and were indescribably worried.
Even though Xiao Lang was young, he also knew something big had happened at home, he tugged at Sister Liuâs hand, "Aunt Liu, where is my Mommy? Why is Daddy holding Xiao Xi inside? Where is my Mommy?"
Sister Liuâs eyes brimmed with tears, yet she didnât know how to explain it to Xiao Lang.
Hearing his granddaughterâs cries, Leng Liewei could no longer hold back and started knocking on the door, "Leng Yichen! Why is Xiao Xi crying so hard? Open the door, letâs solve this together! Donât stay locked inside! Open the door quickly! Donât let Xiao Xi cry!"
Outside the door, Leng Liewei continued knocking, truly heartbroken for his granddaughter.
Before long, the bedroom door opened, Xiao Xi was sobbing with little hiccups, looking pitiable.
Leng Liewei immediately took the child from Leng Yichenâs arms, just about to scold him, but saw his sonâs red eyes, evidence of having cried. He swallowed his words and let out a heavy sigh, holding Xiao Xi aside.
"Sister Liu, itâs time for Xiao Xiâs milk. Her mother is not here to breastfeed, see if you can give her some formula."
Sister Liu held back her tears and repeatedly agreed, turning to the kitchen to make formula for Xiao Xi.
"Yichen, where are you going?" Seeing Leng Yichen already dressed, looking ready to leave, Cheng Gang asked, worried.
"Iâm going out for a bit." Leng Yichen looked at Cheng Gang and Xia Lian, "Uncle, Aunt, Iâll trouble you both to look after things here while Iâm gone. Iâm counting on you!"
"Donât worry, Yichen! You donât even have to ask, we would do it anyway! Go and handle your matters, but please, be safe!" Cheng Gangâs eyes turned slightly red, "Weâre waiting for you and Yiran to come back together!"
"Leng Yichen!" Leng Liewei called out suddenly, holding Xiao Xi, "Remember, you still have children, a father!"
Leng Liewei wasnât good with emotional words, but this was his way of reminding him to prioritize safety!
Leng Yichen took one last deep look at Xiao Xi and Xiao Lang, then turned and left home.
