Even if his uncles are unhappy, they dare not say anything, let alone do anything.
Except for this little cousin, his favorite little cousin, whenever Duan Xi is present, he canāt get close to this little cousin. Every time he holds her for a few seconds, heās forcibly separated. Over time, Duan Xi became the person he disliked the most in his little notebook, without exception.
Whatās even more annoying is that even if he cries, this man doesnāt yield to him!
Take now, for example, when he pretends to cry, wailing until his voice gets hoarse, his face turns red, yet he still canāt escape from the tormenting claws. His little butt seems stuck to Duan Xiās arm like glue, making him extremely angry.
When Jiaojiao saw Little Potato crying, she wanted to comfort him with a hug. But Duan Xi avoided her hand and pointed his chin toward the house, signaling her: "Grandfather is coming out."
Then, while Jiaojiao was looking into the house, he smiled at the little rascal still fussing in his arms.
"!!" Little Potato quickly retracted his expression, and didnāt dare make any more trouble.
Forget about continuing to cry, he didnāt even dare to whimper, sitting lifelessly in Duan Xiās arms.
When Jiaojiao looked over again, she heard Duan Xi say: "Iāll hold him, you go ahead."
Jiaojiao knew the animals were afraid of Duan Xi, but never thought children would be too. She found his way of holding Little Potato particularly loving, she nodded with a smile and then ran to Shu Langās side.
"Grandfather." She called sweetly, hugging his arm and acting coy: "Grandfather, have you missed me? Jiaojiao missed you so much, missed you so much that I couldnāt sleep well last night. Look at me, arenāt my dark circles really serious? Thatās because I missed you so much."
As Jiaojiao spoke, she moved her little face closer to Shu Lang, pointing to her nonexistent dark circles.
Such words, so full of exaggeration, are obviously untrue to hear, yet Shu Lang was just pleased to hear her nonsense, immediately cheered by her teasing, patting her little hand and saying: "My darling loves Grandpa the most, unlike some heartless little ones, who wonāt even call me Grandpa till now."
"You should be satisfied, as a father, I havenāt even heard him call me Dad." Shu Lang and Qin Qiong came downstairs, both full of helplessness.
Speaking of this, Shu Lang was a tearful tale.
Little Potatoās first shout was to Ruan Jiaojiao, the second was to Gu Zichen, though he pronounced it vaguely as "Mum" it was a call nonetheless.
Shu Lang and Shu Langās grandfather, when they saw Little Potato could call people, had always been looking forward to hearing him call them. But Little Potato went from calling "Jiji" to "Mama", after "Mama" to "Gugu", finishing "Gugu" he called "Gege", this "Gege" had specific people like Ruan Hao and Duan Xi to call, yet missing even a single call of Dad or Grandpa!
Ruan Jiaojiao knew about this too, and couldnāt help but laugh, playfully saying to Shu Lang: "Uncle, Little Potato seems to call people based on their looks."
"Thatās not right, your uncle may not look great, but your uncle-in-law is as handsome as Pan An." Qin Qiong, hearing this, rubbed his chin and jokingly said.
"Get lost!" Shu Lang lifted his foot without any good mood to kick him, but the agile Qin Qiong dodged quickly, and provocatively smiled.
Shu Lang couldnāt be bothered with him, walked over and joined Shu Langās grandfather to greet the Ruanlin Family.
