Chapter 1016: 1001, Scenic Grandpaâs Sweetheart Side Story (6) Chapter 1016: 1001, Scenic Grandpaâs Sweetheart Side Story (6) âYes,â Nineteenâs eyes curved with his smile, that was irresistibly cute and soft, âI said no, but they insisted on giving, those little girls are the most troublesome. If brother and I donât accept, theyâre going to cry, and Uncle Second once said that a gentleman should never let a girl cry, so I just kept it.â
âThen why didnât you share the snacks with other kids, hmm?â Jian Qing caressed his little head, asking softly.
âBecause I wanted to bring them back for Mommy and Shanshan,â Nineteen said.
Jian Qing felt utterly defeated by him, took his little backpack, and put the snacks back in.
âMommy!â
Nineteen shuffled his little butt closer into Jian Qingâs embrace, and she could tell the little guy had something to ask her.
Sure enough, the next second, the little guy exploded with his own little scheme.
âMommy, do you want some ice cream?â
Jian Qing poked his chubby little cheek lightly, âItâs you who wants to eat it, isnât it?â
âMommy, letâs eat together,â Nineteen said with a beaming smile.
âWhat if Daddy doesnât agree?â Jian Qing asked amusedly.
Nineteen shushed her, whispering, âDaddy is in the study, we can sneak it, he wonât know.â
Jian Qingâs eyes brimmed with laughter, âThen you go get it.â
If she were caught getting ice cream while the master of the house, Quan Jingwu, was around, there might not be such a delicacy as ice cream in their house again before she gave birth.
âMommy, wait for me.â
Nineteenâs purple eyes gleaming brightly, he slid off the bed, putting on his little shoes while saying, âSeventeen, come with me.â
Seventeen made an acknowledging sound and followed him.
Watching the two little treasuresâ backs, Jian Qing rubbed her belly, âShanshan, your brother Nineteen is quite naughty, right?â
Everyone was convinced she was carrying a little princess in her belly, and now Jian Qing also subconsciously believed she was expecting a little girl.
She didnât plan to find out the gender of the baby this time, allowing for a pleasant surprise when the child was born.
In the kitchen, Seventeen and Nineteen crept in on their tiptoes.
Seventeen stood at the door as lookout for Nineteen, who wasnât very tall but used a stool to reach. Standing on his toes on the stool, he barely managed to open the fridge.
âNineteen, hurry up!â Seventeen called out softly.
âGot it,â Nineteen replied hurriedly, his bright purple eyes shining upon seeing the ice cream inside the fridge.
âStrawberry flavor, my favorite.â
Nineteen picked up the strawberry-flavored ice cream, then put it back again.
âMommy likes chocolate,â he said.
Faced with several flavors of ice cream, Nineteen was in a dilemma.
âWhich one should I take?â
âNineteen, are you done yet?â Seventeen turned to see him standing still in front of the fridge and urged impatiently.
âWait a little longer, almost there,â Nineteen scratched his head.
âSeventeen, do you think I should take chocolate or strawberry flavor?â
âWhatever,â Seventeen said, his bright black eyes focused on the direction of the stairs, fearing that Quan Jingwu might suddenly come down.
Nineteen pouted, then picked up the strawberry flavor, âMaybe Iâll just taste a bit, and then take the chocolate one to eat with Mommy.â
After some thought, Nineteen still couldnât decide.
Quan Jingwu finished dealing with the documents and came down to prepare dinner for Jian Qing. As he approached, he saw the little figure hiding at the entrance to the kitchen.
His violet eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile crept across his thin, crimson lips.
He tiptoed closer, and when Seventeen saw him, he was just about to speak, but Quan Jingwu put his finger to his lips, shushing him. Seventeenâs delicate little face showed a hint of helplessness.
Nineteen, I canât help you; youâre on your own.
Quan Jingwu picked him up, and, looking up, saw the little one standing in front of the fridge. The amusement in his eyes deepened.
âNineteen, why not take a strawberry-flavored one?â
A deep voice resonated, and for a brief moment, nineteen didnât react, instinctively saying, âBut Mommy likes the chocolate flavor.â
Seventeen covered his face, nineteen you dummy!
âThen why donât we take a box of both strawberry and chocolate flavor,â Quan Jingwu said.
âRight, take two, Mommy and I can share,â nineteen reached for a box of strawberry-flavored ice cream, suddenly feeling a chill down his spine.
That voice just now sounded so familiar.
He slowly turned around and met those enchanting purple eyes, nineteen forced a wry smile, quickly put back the ice cream, and then closed the refrigerator.
âDaddy!â
Quan Jingwu casually watched him, âNineteen, what exactly were you planning to do with that ice cream just now, hmm?â
âDaddy, I was just smelling it,â nineteen desperately explained.
A hint of amusement flashed in Quan Jingwuâs eyes, âDid you finish smelling it?â
âMhm mhm,â nineteen nodded immediately.
âThen why arenât you coming down?â
The little guy was getting bolder, daring to climb onto such a high chair, he really needed a lesson.
âDaddy, Iâm scared.â
Looking at the distance between himself and the ground, nineteenâs little legs went soft, and he stretched out his arms towards Quan Jingwu for a hug.
Quan Jingwu gently tapped his head, âYou, I tell you.â
Without getting the ice cream, nineteen hung his head in dismay, feeling as if heâd lost the whole world.
âNineteen, do you want to eat ice cream?â Quan Jingwu set them both on the couch, his long fingers ruffling the little guyâs soft short hair.
Nineteenâs smile blossomed, âYes.â
âThen letâs make an agreement,â Quan Jingwu coaxed.
âHmm.â
âMommy is currently pregnant with a little baby, she canât eat cold things, especially ice cream. If you help Daddy supervise Mommy, Daddy will reward you with ice cream to eat, how about that?â Quan Jingwu said warmly.
âOkay.â In front of ice cream, nineteen flat-out sold out his own mommy.
Jian Qing, who was waiting in the room for nineteen, sneezed, wondering who was talking about her.
âGood boy,â Quan Jingwu affectionately curved his lips.
Nineteen asked expectantly, âCan I eat the ice cream now?â
âWait here, Daddy will go get it for you.â
Nineteen cheered, âDaddy is the best, Daddy, I want the strawberry flavor.â
Seventeen pursed her lips, smiling.
After giving the two little treasures a box of ice cream to share, Quan Jingwu went back upstairs.
Pushing the door open, Jian Qing was chatting on her phone with Jian Wei.
Seeing Quan Jingwu come in, she put down her phone and sat up.
âSlow down.â Quan Jingwu watching her swift movement, was so frightened that his spine tensed up.
âWhere are seventeen and nineteen? Did you see them?â She glanced at the doorway and tentatively asked.
âWerenât they just here?â Quan Jingwu feigned ignorance, his expression unchanged, âThey probably ran outside to play with Snowball.â
Jian Qing sighed with relief, it seemed she hadnât been discovered.
A flicker crossed Quan Jingwuâs gaze, âWhat would you like for dinner?â
âWhatever you make is fine,â Jian Qing said.
âLetâs go.â
Quan Jingwu picked up her shoes to help her put them on, Jian Qing affectionately linked her arm through his, and they went downstairs together.
