He hung his head and unconsciously kicked the ground as he muttered.
Xia Qingluo overheard him and took him for his word. She replied confidently, “If you stay in the first place forever, I will be the second.”
Ming Beichen raised his head. “Whoever who can’t do that will be a dog.”
“Okay!” Xia Qingluo nodded and she stared right into Beibei’s eyes. “If you can do that, you can be my boyfriend.”
She extended her right hand and raised her little finger. “Pinky promise. You can’t renege on the promise.”
Su Yue and Xia Zimo watched the two little fellows promising each other and their mouths curled with a smile. How wonderful and touching…
“It’s settled.” Xia Qingluo retracted her hand and smiled at Su Yue and her mother. “Both my mommy and mother-in-law are so pretty.”
Su Yue didn’t know what to say…
It rendered Xia Zimo speechless…
Were these two fellows acting out a drama about childhood sweethearts?
After bidding Xia Qingluo goodbye, Su Yue and Beibei went to the car.
Ming Ansheng bought a new Porsche for Su Yue and hired a chauffeur for her.
“Su Yue stepmom, from today onwards, you will be my real mommy. Ignore the rude fellow just now.” After the car left the school, Beibei inched nearer to Su Yue and hugged her tightly. “He is just jealous that you are prettier than his mother.”
Su Yue almost forgot all about the incident. What harsh or unkind words hasn’t she heard before? She had weathered storms of all kinds.
Why would she take a child’s words to heart?
She stretched her hand and gently caressed Beibei’s head. “You’ve learned how to console others.”
She bent and studied his face intently as he snuggled close to her. He looked so innocent and had beautiful features.
He really inherited Meiduo’s looks.
Su Yue joked, “I think I can’t treat you as a child anymore. You already have a girlfriend.”
Beibei flushed crimson and he furrowed his eyebrows. “That’s nonsense! Xia Qingluo is not my girlfriend. She is so noisy and irritating.”
Su Yue ceased her jokes and smiled. “She follows her mother’s surname?”
Beibei nodded. “Yeah. Her brother follows her dad’s surname.”
At the mention of Xia Qingluo, Beibei rambled on, “Her grandfather is an extraordinary and amazing man. He is a high-ranking military general. Her dad is a lieutenant commander and he wears the army uniform. He is very handsome and cool.”
Beibei’s eyes sparkled as he talked about soldiers. He seemed fascinated and in awe.
Su Yue gazed at him and raised her eyebrows. “Is he more handsome than your daddy?”
Beibei beamed sheepishly. “Daddy is still a little more handsome.”
To him, his daddy was the world’s most handsome man. No one else could win him.
The car sped on the roads and after a while, Beibei glanced out of the window. He didn’t recognize the roads and he looked puzzled. “Mommy, aren’t we going home?”
“Nope. Your Uncle Lu is giving us a treat later,” answered Su Yue.
“How about Xiaojiao?”
He didn’t forget about his sister. He reminded Su Yue of her brother Su Yan.
For the first time, she felt that having such a sensible and grown-up son was a blessing. Most importantly, he doted on Xiaojiao.
It was blissful to have a brother who loved his younger sister.
