Chapter 191 – Xixi’s Personal Connection And Little Friends
“Goodbye, Xixi!”
“Goodbye Xin’er!”
“Bye-bye Xixi!”
“Bye-bye Zhaoyu!”
“Goodbye Xixi and Xixi’s dad!”
“Goodbye Chen Shiyun!”
“Mhm, goodbye to you too.” Yang Yi held her daughter’s small hand and nodded gently with a smile.
Nowadays, almost every time Yang Yi picked up or dropped off Xixi, he would encounter such a situation where there were many children saying goodbye to Xixi. The little girl seemed to have surpassed Chen Shiyun and became the new king of social connections…
Of course, Xixi took a completely different route from Chen Shiyun. Chen Shiyun had a bit of a violent tendency, while the little girl attracted others with her personality charm!
Every time, Yang Yi felt a little surprised. After all, in the past, Xixi was only more comfortable playing at home and was quite shy outside. He didn’t expect that after going to kindergarten for just over a week, the little girl became more cheerful and outgoing.
However, this change was good!
Today, on the way home, Xixi was still the same, talking sweetly to her father about what happened at kindergarten, especially when she mentioned that Teacher Shen taught them to dance.
“Qiqi learned the best. She said her mom knows how to dance and taught her before! Then I danced very well too, and Teacher Mu praised me!” Xixi said with a smile, seemingly waiting for her father’s praise.
“Really? You must show it to Papa tonight. Papa thinks our family’s Xixi, with such long legs, must be really good at dancing.” Yang Yi smiled and said to Xixi.
“Hee hee!” The little girl received her father’s praise and was happier than anything else. She smiled sweetly and said, “Okay, when we get home, I’ll dance for Papa!”
“It’s just too bad that your Mama isn’t at home, she can’t watch it!” Yang Yi said casually.
“We can go to the place where Mama works! I used to miss Mama at night, and asked Aunt Xiaojuan to take me there!” Xixi said excitedly.
Yang Yi pondered for a moment, nodded and said, “That’s a great idea. After dinner, Papa will take you there, and you can dance for both Mama and Papa.”
“That’s great, I can see Mama again!” The little girl clapped her hands in delight.
…
As Yang Yi was preparing dinner, Xixi ran into the kitchen hugging Xiao Guai. Xiao Guai seemed a bit uncomfortable being held by his little master, but there was no way around it. Xixi hadn’t seen Xiao Guai all day, so she liked to cuddle and show affection to him.
“Papa, I have a question I want to ask you.” Xixi stood at the door, her left hand tightly hugging the Xiao Guai’s belly, and her right hand raised high.
Since she started attending kindergarten, she has become very polite!
“Go ahead!” Yang Yi turned down the heat, covered the pot, and let the braised fish simmer and thicken, then turned around and said with a smile.
“Papa, can I invite my friends to come and play at our house?” Xixi looked at her father hopefully and asked.
It turned out that when Xixi told her little friends in kindergarten that she had three little kittens at home, they were all very envious.
“My family also has a dog, a big dog.” Chen Shiyun still liked to bring the topic to herself, but obviously, the appeal of a kitten was much greater than that of a big dog.
“Okay!” Chen Shiyun saw that everyone’s attention was still on Xixi, so she shook her head dejectedly and followed her little friends to continue talking about the kitten. “How about we go to your house to see your kitten, Xixi?”
Chen Shiyun’s suggestion unexpectedly received unanimous support from her little friends.
Seeing the center of attention back on herself, Chen Shiyun thought quickly and continued proudly, “It’s great to go to Xixi’s house to play. Xixi’s dad makes delicious food, let him make barbecue for us. I also want to eat grilled marshmallows!”
“I want to eat too!” Lan Xin drooled and couldn’t help but speak.
Several little friends were all looking at Xixi with shining eyes, hoping she would give a response.
“I told them that I need to ask Papa after I return home.” Xixi said, holding Yang Yi’s hand and acting cute, “Is it okay? Can I, pretty please?”
Yang Yi smiled and pinched the little girl’s nose, saying, “Of course, you can invite your classmates to come to our house to play. That’s a good thing! Papa will also prepare a lot of delicious food for you all!”
“Papa, you’re so good!” the little girl smiled sweetly.
“But you have to go and count how many friends will come to our house and when,” Yang Yi smiled slightly and assigned the little girl a task, “Papa needs to contact their parents and tell them our address.”
“Okay!” Xixi happily ran out while holding Xiao Guai.
…
In the evening, Yang Yi drove and brought Xixi to the building of Tianmei Company. He had already contacted Mo Fei in advance and Mo Xiaoyuan was already waiting downstairs. She guided them to park the car in the underground parking lot and then then went upstairs through the internal elevator.
“Does Mo Fei usually work overtime until this late?” Yang Yi casually asked to ease the quiet atmosphere in the elevator.
Mo Fei yawned and lazily replied, “Yeah. She wants to release a new album soon, so she’s been recording day and night. Our producers have all gone home, but she’s still not satisfied and feels like she needs to find the right inspiration.”
“Hmm,” Yang Yi responded, then didn’t have much else to say, and the elevator fell into silence.
On the other hand, little Xixi was holding a teddy bear in her left hand and two roses wrapped in plastic in her right hand. She happily bounced around, feeling happy to see her mother soon.
The teddy bear and the roses were both a sudden idea from Yang Yi on the way. He parked on the side of the road and bought them from a flower shop.
Why only buy two flowers? Because if there were too many, knowing Mo Fei’s personality, she would probably think about finding a vase to arrange them. Two flowers would be just right, one for her and one for Xixi, and Mo Fei wouldn’t have to worry too much about arranging them.
As for the teddy bear, Xixi saw it in a custom rose bouquet and insisted on having it. Yang Yi paid a little extra and convinced the store assistant to take it out for the little girl.
After a while, they arrived at Mo Fei’s recording studio, which was on the same floor as her office. Xixi ran ahead and jumped into Mo Fei’s arms as soon as she stood up from her chair. She called out sweetly, “Mama!”
The little girl eagerly reached out both of her hands and presented the gifts. “Mama, look! This is what me and Papa bought for you! The teddy bear is from me, and the flowers are both from me and Papa!”
Mo Fei smiled and kissed the little girl’s cheek. Her voice was slightly hoarse, probably from practicing singing for a long time today. “Xixi is so good. Mama really likes your gift!”
“Do you still need to practice today?” Yang Yi asked, waiting for the mother and daughter to finish being affectionate before expressing his concern. “Why don’t you take a break? I can see that your voice is a bit strained. Even if you’re in a hurry, you shouldn’t overwork yourself…”
Yang Yi rarely spoke so much, except when it came to Xixi. Mo Fei listened and felt warm inside, but she wasn’t good at showing too much emotion, so she pouted and chided, “I know, Uncle who likes to meddle in everything!”
Mo Xiaojun, who was next to her, felt a little nauseous. She shook her head as if she couldn’t stand it anymore and thought to herself, “Should I not be a third wheel here? I feel like I’m so full already…”
