Yup, Mu Chenguang thought to himself, I’ll get a girlfriend and sprinkle dog food all around. This is going to be my new goal for the rest of the year, I better write it down in my trusty notebook.
Xu Xiyan was now entirely satisfied: she’d had her meal fed to her by her prince charming, and then engaged in a passionate make-out session with him. As she basked in the afterglow, Xu Xiyan suddenly thought of Ying Bao in the hospital. Unease shot through her.
“Hubby, who’s watching our kid?”
She was afraid that Huo Yunshen had handed their daughter over to Chen Yunlu. What if Chen Yunlu hid Ying Bao away? She would be entirely helpless then.
“Ye Xun’s watching her. Don’t worry, he won’t let anything happen to her,” replied Huo Yunshen. Ye Xun was now the only person he trusted to watch over Ying Bao.
“Okay.”
Xu Xiyan was reassured. Ye Xun was willing to give his life for Ying Bao; his love and concern for the little girl was the real deal. Xu Xiyan knew she could trust him with her daughter.
“So, what next? Are you going to discuss your new song with Mu Chenguang? Are you writing a new song?”
His previous song, “Perhaps,” had only been released not too long ago. Xu Xiyan was worried it would be too exhausting for him to immediately begin planning a new song.
“Yes. I want to write a special song.”
“Great! I’m looking forward to it.”
Xu Xiyan had gone all starry-eyed; she looked at Huo Yunshen with pure, unadulterated worship in her gaze as she wondered what his new song was going to be about.
In actual fact, Huo Yunshen was writing a special song for the most special person in his life.
Xu Xiyan would get to hear it on the day of his marriage proposal…

Over in Ying Bao’s hospital room…
The usual silence was broken by the joyful laughter of children.
Tang Feimo and Lu Qiancheng were in the hospital room, imitating various animals to entertain Ying Bao, who was squealing with laughter.
“Cherry, can you tell what this is?”
Tang Feimo raised an arm, bent his wrist forward, and placed his other hand behind him. He began walking, poking his bent wrist forward every few steps.
Ying Bao figured it out at once. “It’s an ostrich.”
“Bingo! You got it.”
Tang Feimo gave her a thumbs up.
Lu Qiancheng didn’t want to be outdone. He hastily edged Tang Feimo aside and said, “My turn! I’ll act, you guess.”
Lu Qiancheng put his fingers together and placed them on top of his head. “Guess what this is?”
Ying Bao felt this was a little too easy. “It’s a little white wabbit!”
“What?” Lu Qiancheng pretended he hadn’t heard her correctly. “It’s not a little white mousey.”
Tang Feimo said in disgust, “Cherry said ‘a little white rabbit.’ Are you deaf?”
Ying Bao nodded vigorously. That was what she had said: a little white rabbit.
“Well, she didn’t say it clearly. There’s nothing wrong with my ears,” Lu Qiancheng explained with a deadpan face.
“But I heard what she said. How do you explain that? I heard her correctly, so why didn’t you?” Tang Feimo asked.
“That’s because… because you’re standing closer to her than I am.”
Lu Qiancheng came up with the lame excuse because he didn’t know how to answer the question.
“Fine.” Tang Feimo turned and took Ying Bao’s tiny hand. He said, “Cherry, let’s play by ourselves, just the two of us. I don’t want to play with him, he obviously has problems understanding normal speech.”
Lu Qiancheng: “…”
Lu Qiancheng was frustrated; in his opinion, Tang Feimo had become increasingly insolent towards him ever since Cherry Baby joined them.
The adults found the interaction between the children to be highly amusing. Ye Xun stood by the window, watching the children with his arms crossed. The corners of his mouth lifted as he listened to their joyous laughter.
Beside him, Huo Sanyan had stealthily rested her head upon his shoulder. She said wistfully, “I’m so envious of the children. Look at them, so happy and carefree.”
Ye Xun wholeheartedly agreed. Suddenly, he realized she was leaning against him and shook his shoulder. “Hey! Keep your distance! Why are you always clinging to me? Stop that!”
Ye Xun was at his wits’ end. There seemed to be no way for him to have a normal interaction with Huo Sanyan, not when the woman was always trying to cop a feel.
