“Ah, just let me hold you a little longer. Come on, do you want some candy from your sister?”

“No, you think you can buy me off with candy? No way,” the little guy shook his head.

“Oh, what do you want then?” Xu Chaomu asked patiently.

For the first time, she felt so patient, thoroughly enjoying playing with a child. It was also the first time she realized how much she liked kids.

“I want to play with that little sister…”

The little guy pointed to a dark-haired little girl not far away, giggling “geez geez” with laughter.

When Xu Chaomu turned to look, she saw that the little girl was really pretty, with big eyes, a mushroom haircut, and a red dress. She was focused on playing with a little dog, sometimes lifting it up, sometimes teaching it math, and sometimes lying down to play games with it.

Xu Chaomu patted the little guy’s head, “Do you like that little sister?”

“No.” He denied it, turning his head away to stop looking.

But after a few seconds, he couldn’t help but turn back, covering his eyes, peeking at the little sister through his fingers.

“Still say you don’t like her, look, your face is all red.”

“Bad sister, my face isn’t red. Let me down, I don’t want you to hold me, you don’t know how to hold kids, my butt hurts from your holding,” he complained.

Xu Chaomu was speechless with a face full of black lines, “Just let me hold you for a while, you say you’re this cute, there’s no loss in letting me hold you.”

“Sister, are you a pedophile? You’re not falling for me, are you? I don’t like old ladies, I like that little sister!”

Old lady… Xu Chaomu really wanted to strangle him.

She’s only eighteen, alright!

After the new year, she’d only be nineteen. It was the first time someone had called her an old lady.

Nie Chenglang laughed on the side, “Chaomu, you’ve become an old lady.”

“You little brat, with a mouth that knows no bounds, your sister won’t hold it against you. Call me ‘nice sister,’ and I’ll take you to play with the little sister.”

“Bad sister, bad sister. Let me go, waaaa…” After saying that, the little guy covered his eyes and started “crying.”

While crying, he wriggled in Xu Chaomu’s arms, wrinkling her clothes.

But Xu Chaomu really wanted to hug him; she suddenly wondered if her future kids could be this cute too.

“Come on, if you don’t want the bad sister to hold you, how about letting brother hold you?”

Nie Chenglang reached out his hand.

The little brat blinked, staring at Nie Chenglang for several seconds. The brother looked pretty handsome, so he stretched out his arms.

Nie Chenglang took him from Xu Chaomu’s hands and held him in his arms.

Xu Chaomu was so annoyed, she gave the little guy’s butt a pat and scolded, “Why don’t you want me to hold you?”

“Brother’s handsome, just as handsome as me!” The little guy said proudly.

“You’re so vain at five years old; what will you be like when you grow up!”

“I’ll be even more vain,” the little guy said, not at all ashamed but proud.

A look of pride was all over his little face, just short of a smug cover-up.

“Bad sister, have you ever heard this saying?”

“What saying?” Xu Chaomu asked, curious.

“When I was young, I thought I was the most handsome person in the world, but when I grew up…” the little guy deliberately paused.

“When you grew up, you found out there were many more handsome than you?” Xu Chaomu joined in.

“No, when I grew up I found out, it was the whole universe!”

Xu Chaomu rolled her eyes.

Nie Chenglang laughed heartily, and seeing Xu Chaomu’s exasperated expression, the little guy clapped and laughed as well, feeling very smug.

Xu Chaomu raised her hand, pretending to spank him.

“The bad sister’s going to hit someone…”

The little guy quickly hid in Nie Chenglang’s arms, rubbing his little face against Nie Chenglang’s coat.

He smudged Nie Chenglang’s clothes with snot and mud, all the while giggling muffled laughter.

Of course, Xu Chaomu wasn’t going to hit him; she just really wanted to hug him.

Nie Chenglang, seeing the affection in Xu Chaomu’s eyes, said with a smile, “Do you like him a lot?”

Xu Chaomu nodded repeatedly, “I think he’s really cute, with curly hair and chubby little cheeks.”

“Are you thinking of having one yourself now?” Nie Chenglang teased.

Being the little rascal she is, Xu Chaomu replied, “Yeah, yeah, it would be great if my future baby could be this cute. If it’s mixed-race, that would be beyond praise!”

Xu Chaomu had a dreamy look on her face, fantasizing about having a wonderful mixed-race baby.

“So you have a thing for this, a mixed-race baby, hahaha,” Nie Chenglang laughed.

“What’s so funny? You’ve got to have dreams, what if they come true? If I had a baby like this, I wouldn’t need to eat every day, just looking at him would make me happy,” Xu Chaomu said.

“What if the dad’s genes aren’t good and the mixed-race baby turns out ugly?”

“Don’t worry, I have a good eye.”

Xu Chaomu laughed happily, and the little guy, hiding in Nie Chenglang’s arms, played as she tried to playfully torment him.

Sometimes she pinched his cheek, sometimes she touched his arm.

The little guy couldn’t dodge fast enough, and so he started to claw back: “Bad sister, bad sister! I don’t like you…”

Nie Chenglang looked down to console him, “Sister’s not a bad sister, she likes you a lot. Shall we let her hold you for a bit?”

“No…”

The little fellow deliberately extended the sound, shaking his head like a rattle-drum.

In the sunlight, Nie Chenglang held the little guy while Xu Chaomu stood by, feeling both annoyed and amused. Was she really that bad?

But in that moment, Nie Chenglang did look very pleasing to the eye, with the dappled light shining on his face, with a vast expanse of white snow behind him.

The young and handsome face revealed a sense of stability and gentleness, and even the blinking of his long eyelashes was attractive.

“You little rascal, let me tell you, if you won’t let me hold you, I’m going to hold that little sister,” Xu Chaomu pointed at the girl playing with the dog.

“Don’t you dare hold the little sister, she’s mine!”

“Let me hold you for a moment, and I won’t go hug her.”

“Why do you always want to hold me? Are you a human trafficker, or maybe you’re a pedophile?”

“I just like you,” Xu Chaomu said helplessly.

“Then why do you call me ‘little brat’? I’m not a little brat.”

“Oh, little handsome guy, does that work for you?”

“That’s more like it…” The little guy was satisfied and then turned to seek Nie Chenglang’s opinion, “Big handsome guy, do you think she’s a bad person? She wants to hold me.”

“Of course not, she’s a pretty sister,” Nie Chenglang said, pinching his little cheek with a smile.

Only then did the little guy reluctantly extend his hand, and Xu Chaomu, overjoyed, took him from Nie Chenglang’s arms.

Having held him once, this time she was evidently more experienced, holding him steadily, and the little guy wasn’t annoyed anymore, playing on his own.

Xu Chaomu said to Nie Chenglang with a smile, “If you hadn’t said you were unmarried, I’d really suspect you already had kids.”

This man held a child so skillfully and was so good at pampering them, so gentle.

In the future, he would definitely make a very competent dad.
