Gong Wangheng's question was too direct, and Xiao Yuanyuan was shocked when she heard the word "magic".
It was impossible for him to admit it. He was so frightened that he lost the ability to organize his words and could only utter one sound: "Huh?"
He looked at Brother Hengheng.
But my brother's expression was no different from any other time.
Xiao Yuanyuan was very nervous, and his chubby hands were shaking.
“…Brother, what did you say?”
Although he was panicking, he had one clear thought: his identity must not be exposed.
If he is exposed, he will still have to leave his father.
How can this be possible? This is absolutely not possible.
Little Yuanyuan’s face was full of the expression “I have a big secret, but I will never tell you”.
Gong Wangheng, who is best at analyzing people's facial expressions, can see it at a glance.
He continued: "It's magic. Like the kind that can turn a bird into a human."
This is already a very direct hint.
If an adult was present, he would definitely be able to hear that Xiao Yuanyuan's identity had been exposed in front of Gong Wangheng.
But the nervous little bird Yuanyuan couldn't hear it.
His little bird brain is not enough, so he just listens to what he hears.
He felt that since Gong Wangheng asked, it must be because he didn't know.
So he cannot be exposed and must hide his identity well.
"... No, there is no such thing as magic!" Xiao Yuanyuan spoke word by word, her tone was very weak, "... A bird is just a bird! It is impossible for it to turn into a human!"
When he said these two sentences, the expression on his face had advanced to "Although you have seen through my big secret, I will never admit it."
Gong Wangheng's suggestion became stronger: "Really? I thought so. Sometimes I feel like you look like a bird."
Little Wish: “!!!”
He quickly covered his butt, his bird tail must not explode at this time.
As expected, he is Brother Hengheng, he is really smart.
No, no, now is not the time to praise my brother. His identity as a little bird can no longer be hidden.
Little Yuanyuan quickly denied: "... No, it doesn't look like that! Yuanyuan doesn't look like that, Yuanyuan doesn't look like that at all! Yuanyuan is just, baby!"
Gong Wangheng smiled.
A dumb baby.
"Then why do you have such a big eggshell? Only birds have eggshells."
His precious balls!
Xiao Yuanyuan was extremely panicked, his eyes rolling around, but he held on tightly and did not let go.
“… That’s Yuanyuan’s toy!” Fortunately, he remembered what his father told him, and he could still remember a sentence or two, “Yes, it’s… someone gave it to Yuanyuan!”
Perhaps it was because Xiao Yuanyuan was really funny in his flustered state, Gong Wangheng looked at him and smiled.
Xiao Yuanyuan just looked up at his brother and saw his smile, which made him feel uneasy.
This seemed to be the first time I saw my brother smile like this.
When they met for the first time, the elder brother was smiling, a very sunny smile, just like the little prince in a fairy tale book.
But that smile was fake. After he put away that smile, he seemed to have never seen a smile on his brother's face again.
This smile now was not a friendly or kind smile at all. Xiao Yuanyuan could not feel any such emotion at all.
More like a little devil, who discovered something new and became interested.
Before, he always felt that Brother Hengheng carried a sense of oppression.
But after spending time together, I gradually accepted this feeling.
Now that Brother Hengheng smiled, this oppressive feeling came back again.
He felt that Brother Hengheng was no longer the elegant little prince, but more like a little devil with evil intentions.
But then the elder brother said, "I was just kidding. How could this be true? Birds can't turn into humans."
Xiao Yuanyuan blinked and looked at Brother Hengheng.
Gong Wangheng continued: "There is no magic in this world. Birds are birds and humans are humans. They cannot change."
Gong Wangheng's expression returned to normal. Xiao Yuanyuan looked at him for a long time before she dared to relax.
The completely exposed Xiao Yuanyuan didn't realize that he was completely exposed. He still thought that Brother Hengheng was really joking with him, and now he was serious about what he said.
Xiao Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief in front of everyone.
Telling Gong Wangheng clearly: I was scared just now, but now I believe it.
Xiaoyuanyuan said: "... Well, it's like this, a bird is a bird!"
Fortunately, my brother was just joking and his true identity was kept and not exposed.
"What animal would you like to recognize today?"
Children's nervousness comes and goes quickly.
But Xiao Yuanyuan doesn’t want to learn about birds today. The topic just now really scared the baby.
He thought for a moment and said, "… Today, I will recognize the cat!"
"good."
Bai Qingnian came in at this time with snacks.
"There's no cake at home, so have some chocolate cookies. The drink is hot milk... Hengheng, what's wrong with your hand?!"
But as soon as he walked in, he saw the large bruises on Gong Wangheng's arm.
Children have fair and tender skin, so bruises like this are particularly eye-catching.
After being rubbed by Xiao Yuanyuan just now, the pain has actually been reduced a lot, but it just looks scary.
Gong Wangheng said calmly: "I accidentally bumped into him during the Sanda class."
"How long? More than forty-eight hours?"
"No."
"It's such a big piece, does it hurt?"
"It's okay. It doesn't hurt much now."
Because there was an exposed little magician who rubbed it for him.
"Wait a minute, I'll get a cold pack."
"Uncle Bai, don't bother, I'm fine."
But when Bai Qingnian saw this thing on the child, he couldn't just sit there and watch, so he quickly brought a cool cold compress bag.
This was made by him. Gu Xiefeng always liked to play dangerous sports, and they were afraid that he would sprain his muscles, so they always had it ready at home.
The cold compress bag is small and can be wrapped directly. It is very convenient to use on the knees and arms, and it was immediately attached to Gong Wangheng's arm.
It wasn’t as cold as I imagined, but it seemed like the pain was frozen in an instant and it really didn’t hurt anymore.
"Just apply cold compress for 48 hours, and apply hot compress after that. Pay attention to protection and be careful in class next time."
"Well, thank you Uncle Bai."
"Did your parents send you to learn Sanda?"
As he asked, his eyes involuntarily fell on Xiao Yuanyuan.
They probably wouldn't be willing to send Xiao Yuanyuan to learn such skills. This little peach will be squeezed into peach juice soon.
"No, I wanted to learn it myself." Gong Wangheng was honest, "I hate pain, and I thought this would help me get used to it."
Bai Qingnian really didn't expect the reason to be like this.
How should I put it? First, I was surprised that Gong Wangheng hated pain, and second, I was surprised that an eight-year-old boy would say such a thing.
Because you hate pain, you experience pain in this way and then get used to overcoming it
It's a choice that even adults can't necessarily make.
It seems brave, a little bit. But it also seems extreme, a little bit.
Bai Qingnian couldn't control his occupational disease and asked another question: "Do you think this method is helpful?"
Gong Wangheng also admitted honestly: "No. Rather, I hate it even more now."
"I think that when it comes to pain, there is no need to overcome it. Sometimes avoiding it is an option."
Bai Qingnian was afraid that saying too much would turn into preaching, so he said this.
What he wants to say is that most people don’t like “pain”, but “pain” is unavoidable.
There is no need to expose yourself to collision and injury for this reason.
Then Gong Wangheng thought of a fork in the road.
Smart children tend to get stuck on something they hate when they encounter it.
Gong Wang instantly had his own new interpretation of Bai Qingnian's words.
- Avoiding pain, does it mean that he should train his strength more? When no one can hurt him, he doesn't need to feel pain.
He sincerely felt that Bai Qingnian's words were very helpful: "I understand, thank you, Uncle Bai."
If Bai Qingnian knew that Gong Wangheng's understanding was completely different from what he wanted to express, he would probably be speechless.
But he didn't know it at the time, and still thought that it was good that the child was smart, and he could understand it with just a simple sentence.
"Okay, then go ahead and identify the animals. Uncle won't bother you anymore."
Looking down, he saw that while he was talking to Gong Wangheng, Xiao Yuanyuan was already eating quietly on the side.
Eat something to calm your nerves.
I ate two cookies and drank half a cup of milk.
This little bird, which usually chirps non-stop, is the most obedient and quiet when eating.
Gong Wangheng kept talking to Xiao Yuanyuan until it was almost dinner time before going back.
The adults from the Gong family came back and after hearing from the nanny that he had come to the Gu family, they came to take him back.
At the dining table, Gu Xiefeng was thinking about how to tell his little baby that he was going on a business trip tomorrow.
He won't be able to see his beloved little baby tomorrow afternoon, and they will be separated for a week.
Mr. Gu couldn't bear it and didn't want to see their lively and adorable baby cry.
Look how satisfied and happy the little guy is while eating dinner. If you tell him, he might be so sad that he won’t be able to eat.
Damn, it would be great if I could bring the baby with me.
He can work and travel with his wife and children at the same time.
Bai Qingnian watched Gu Xiefeng's expression change from time to time. He didn't eat a single bite of the food. He didn't know what he was thinking about, so he called out to him, "Are you going to eat or not? What's wrong with you?"
Gu Xiefeng's imagination hurt himself: "... I'm very sad. I lost my appetite."
Bai Qingnian: “…”
I think you've lost your mind.
After dinner, Xiao Yuanyuan asked his parents to watch cartoons with him.
It is also interesting for children of this age to watch cartoons, but they must be accompanied by their parents.
It's not just about sitting next to you, but watching with you seriously.
He has to discuss and explain the plot with the parents, and if he encounters a plot he doesn't understand, he has to ask the parents for help.
This task tonight was given to Gu Xiefeng.
He also had to tell his little baby that he was going on a business trip at this time, otherwise he would not have the chance to tell him after watching cartoons and going to bed.
Xiao Yuanyuan sat in Gu Xiefeng's arms, watching the cartoon attentively.
This is his favorite animated hero series recently.
Because he knows magic himself, he always feels that these cartoons are real and the heroes in them are real.
"Wenyuan, Dad wants to tell you something."
Gu Xiefeng hesitated for a long time, but finally spoke.
Will his little baby be so sad that he won’t even enjoy watching cartoons? Will he be so sad that he can’t sleep
"Okay, go ahead, Dad."
Xiao Yuanyuan's eyes were still fixed on the TV screen, not moving away.
"Dad, he's going on a business trip tomorrow and won't be back for a week."
But Gu Xiefeng forgot that Xiao Yuanyuan had no idea what a business trip meant.
Sure enough, the little baby asked curiously: "… Business trip, what is this?"
Looking into the little baby's clear and watery eyes, Gu Xiefeng could imagine how sad and lost he would be in a while.
"On a business trip, dad has to go to another place for work and won't be back for many days."
After Gu Xiefeng finished speaking, he looked carefully at the little baby's reaction.
If he cries, I will hug him in my arms and comfort him with a kiss.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the little baby just blinked, then accepted it and said, "Okay! Then Dad, keep working hard!"
Ah, this... is that it
This reaction was completely different from what Gu Xiefeng had imagined.
He was originally worried that the baby would cry, but the baby didn't respond. This indifferent attitude really made the old father sad.
Even if you don't cry, you'd still feel reluctant to do so, right
Gu Xiefeng couldn't believe it. This was how the little darling treated him
He was not like this when Bai Qingnian left, what a biased little thing!
“… Big Daddy is going to be away from Yuanyuan for several days. Yuanyuan won’t be able to see Big Daddy for several days.”
Gu Xiefeng did not give up and continued, "It's been longer than the last time Dad came home. Yuanyuan won't be able to see big dad for a long time."
But after what happened with Bai Qingnian, Xiao Yuanyuan has some experience in this area.
Dad will come back, as long as there is someone at home to stay with him.
Besides, he has to go to kindergarten now and learn to recognize things with his brother Hengheng, so he has something to do.
The most important thing is that he only has cartoons in his mind now, and Gu Xiefeng chose a not-so-good time.
In comparison, what he said was not that important.
Listening to Gu Xiefeng's words, the little baby said calmly: "... Well, Yuanyuan knows! Yuanyuan will wait for daddy!"
Gu Xiefeng: “…”
It is confirmed that the little baby is biased.
This little thing must like Bai Qingnian more. Look at his attitude towards his business trip. It really hurts his father's heart.
Bai Qingnian was watching this scene nearby and was trying so hard to hold back his laughter that he almost hurt himself.
No wonder this guy had such a rich expression while eating, as if he was performing a one-man sitcom. So he was worried about this.
But the baby's reaction was too funny.
For fear of irritating Gu Xiefeng, Bai Qingnian must not laugh out loud.
But silence was better than words at this moment. The way he tried to hold back his laughter made Gu Xiefeng feel even more sarcastic.
The next afternoon, Gu Xiefeng went on a business trip.
Bai Qingnian was at work and didn't go to see him off, and the little baby was still playing in the mud in kindergarten.
He dragged his suitcase and felt sad that none of his wife and children were considerate to him. He was such a poor man.
But how could Xiao Yuanyuan not miss Gu Xiefeng
He didn't have any deep feelings about the verbal description from the night before.
It was not until the housekeeper took him home that afternoon and he knew that Gu Xiefeng would not be at home that day that he understood how his father's business trip made him feel.
I just miss my dad.
Although Gu Xiefeng might not be at home when he got home on normal days, he knew his father would be back soon and he felt excited.
I can talk to my dad and play with him later. It makes me happy just thinking about it.
But now, knowing that daddy won’t be back and will be away for several days, the little baby feels empty inside.
I didn’t go to Brother Hengheng to identify animals that day, so the Smart Baby Project was put on hold.
He was waiting for Bai Qingnian to come back at home. As soon as he came back, he couldn't wait to call Gu Xiefeng and video chat with him.
Unfortunately, Gu Xiefeng didn’t see this scene.
The little baby was so anxious that he was about to throw himself on Bai Qingnian: "... Daddy, call and talk!"
"Okay, okay, don't worry, we'll call Big Daddy right now."
Bai Qingnian took off his coat first, then held the little baby in his arms.
The little baby watched him take out his cell phone, sat down obediently, and turned his little feet. His mood began to turn happy.
But Gu Xiefeng didn't answer.
Bai Qingnian sent him a video and called him, but he didn't answer.
Bai Qingnian thought he was busy with something important, so he didn't continue fighting.
Little Yuanyuan's eyes were full of anticipation, shining as he looked at the phone screen: "...Where's Big Daddy? Why hasn't Big Daddy come out yet?"
This little look is so adorable that people can't bear to tell him the truth.
Bai Qingnian touched his head and said, "My eldest father might be busy, so he didn't answer the phone. We'll call him later."
If the little baby showed his tail, Bai Qingnian would be able to see his tail, which was raised high at this moment, suddenly droop down.
The little face was full of disappointment, but he could only nod: "Well, okay... I'll call you later, Dad..."
Before going to bed at night, Bai Qingnian called again under the little baby's expectant gaze.
Gu Xiefeng thought it was something important, so he didn't answer the call.
Bai Qingnian said apologetically: "Grandpa still didn't answer. He must be doing something important."
Some things that adults can understand are difficult for children to understand.
The little baby was originally sitting on the bed, but after hearing Bai Qingnian's words, his whole body fell down on the bed.
I feel sad as my expectations were dashed twice.
The little baby said pitifully: "... Why didn't he answer the phone... Did he not want to make a wish..."
Bai Qingnian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was too serious.
He quickly comforted the little baby: "Of course not, Dad is just busy with work. When he is free, he will call Yuanyuan."
"So, when is he free?"
"Dad doesn't know about this either, but don't worry, Dad will definitely call you. He must miss you very much."
The little darling just doesn't follow the beaten path.
After listening to Bai Qingnian's words, he stood up from the bed again.
She spread her pink wings and said seriously, "... Then Yuanyuan, fly over to find him!"
After saying that, he took off on the spot.
But the little baby has gained weight, with soft flesh all over his body.
In addition, the weather is still cold, and the thick and dense feathers on the wings have not been replaced.
There was no change in the wings, and I guess that was why he was under a lot of pressure.
It has been a long time since I last flew. Now when Xiao Yuanyuan wants to fly, he has not succeeded.
The little baby didn't realize the seriousness of the problem. He flapped his wings hard and struggled hard - but in the end he only got a few centimeters off the ground and couldn't go any higher.
how so!
He! Can’t! Fly! Suddenly!
The little baby couldn't believe it, so he sat back on the bed and touched his wings.
It is not injured, there is no wound at all, and its feathers are also very beautiful.
I moved the wings again and they were able to flap and move, but why couldn't it fly
But Bai Qingnian saw it all clearly and was simply overwhelmed by the cuteness of the little baby.
If you get fat, you can't fly. This actually happens in reality.
"... Dad, Yuanyuan can't fly anymore." Little Yuanyuan said sadly, "... Its wings seem to be broken."
No, the wings are not broken.
I just want to gain weight.
Looking at the little baby's round belly and chubby short arms and legs, he looks like a doll.
Bai Qingnian held him in his arms and rubbed him. The feeling was so good and comfortable.
Let’s not say that he is fat. This bit of chubbyness is within the healthy range, and children should be chubby to be cute.
"The wings are not broken, it's just that Yuanyuan can't fly tonight." Bai Qingnian said nonsense to comfort the child, "You will definitely be able to fly tomorrow, Yuanyuan, don't be anxious."
Gu Xiefeng's video invitation sounded at this time, successfully diverting Xiao Yuanyuan's attention.
Bai Qingnian took a look and said, "It's Grandfather calling."
Little Wish's wings were so happy that they opened up instantly: "Wow!"
Bai Qingnian pressed the accept button, and the moment the call was established, Xiao Yuanyuan held Bai Qingnian's hand and kissed the phone screen.
Her tone was sweet, with a little bit of complaint: "Dad! Why are you here so late?"
Gu Xiefeng didn't expect that as soon as he opened it, he would receive a sweet kiss from his little baby. His tiredness was instantly swept away and he was in a good mood.
"Dad has been busy and is only free now. Did you miss him, Yuanyuan?"
Little Yuanyuan nodded quickly, got close to the phone, and said, "… I miss you, Yuanyuan, I miss you so much!"
"Dad misses Yuanyuan too. What is Yuanyuan doing? Why are its wings showing?"
Little Yuanyuan touched his wings and answered seriously: "… Just now, Yuanyuan wanted to fly over to find you."
Gu Xiefeng on the other end of the video couldn't stop smiling.
What a sweet little baby!
He actually flew over to find his daddy. That’s so cute it’s against the rules!
"Does Yuanyuan know where daddy is? Why did you fly over to find him?"
After Gu Xiefeng asked, Xiao Yuanyuan realized belatedly that, yes, he didn’t even know where his father was, so how could he find him
But it was not too late to ask now: "... Where is Dad?"
"Dad is very far away. Yuanyuan can't reach him."
Ah, I can’t fly.
The little baby was a little sad again.
"Then when can you come back?" the little baby urged, "It's late now, it's time to go to bed, you can come back now!"
Gu Xiefeng was soft-hearted and looked as if it didn't matter when he talked to him last night.
Today, this little daddy's boy is gone and starts to act like a spoiled brat again.
When he set out in the afternoon, he felt that he was such a miserable man, but now he feels very happy.
I have a family, a wife, and a little baby who cares about me, so I am full of motivation.
Bai Qingnian lay down holding the baby in his arms, while continuing to video chat with Gu Xiefeng while the two adults coaxed him to sleep.
"Dad will be back soon, Yuanyuan should be a good boy at home."
The little baby nestled in Bai Qingnian's arms: "... Yeah, Yuanyuan will be good."
"Kiss daddy."
"Wooden ah!"
Don’t ask, asking is happiness.
Gu Xiefeng smiled happily like a father: "Yuanyuan is so good. Okay, it's time for Yuanyuan to go to bed."
Little daddy doesn’t want to sleep.
He still had a lot to say to his father, and he hadn't told his father what happened in kindergarten today.
But every word the dad said through the phone had a hypnotic effect, and after a while, the baby's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he fell asleep.
The next day, Bai Qingnian sent the little baby to school.
Doctor Bai had a day off that day, so he slept in and overslept with the baby.
When I opened my eyes, there was still half an hour before class. I jumped out of bed quickly, packed up in an instant, and rushed all the way to send the little baby to kindergarten.
The little baby, carrying his schoolbag, walked into the classroom on time.
Fortunately, I wasn’t late.
But Xiao Yuanyuan was not in high spirits that day.
He missed his dad so much that he fell asleep last night. He wanted to talk to his dad more.
He must not smile during lunch.
I couldn't sleep during my nap.
The other children were all sleeping soundly, with their even breathing sounds coming one after another.
However, the little baby was not sleepy even with his eyes closed. He was only planning what to say when he called his father today.
Until a strange smell approached him.
It's a bit eerie and has some natural fear.
What is this thing? It’s scary. The little baby shrank into the quilt and wrapped himself up completely.
But this smell seemed to be lingering around his nose, very close to him.
Xiao Yuanyuan plucked up his courage and opened his eyes little by little.
—Then he saw Chen Shuying squatting in front of his bed.
His big eyes, which usually looked silly and dull, were now dark and scary.
Xiao Yuanyuan was startled and almost rolled off the bed: "... You, what are you doing!"
The author has something to say: Wish: Give you a fist
