Sweet Wife in My Arms - Chapter 923

Chapter 923: Guagua

However, Yan Huan still felt that he was a little too lazy and inactive. They were only less than half a year old, and they were also much lighter than the other babies when they were born. Since they had grown so heavy, their increasing weight could only be explained by their lack of physical activity.

“Our Little Qi is so smart.” Yan Huan gently pinched her son’s little cheek, and placed the handphone next to Little Guang’s mouth.

“Be good, let’s talk with Daddy. Call Daddy.”

Lu Qi contained his urge to scream with all his might, so much so that his face began to puff and redden.

“Guagua…”

“Guagua, Guagua…”

The little boy yelled clearly and loudly, as he pondered to himself. Why is my Guagua in the little box? Will Guagua jump out and hug me if I scream a few more times?

“Guagua, Guagua…”

He used every ounce of his laryngeal strength to bellow into the cell phone repeatedly.

Lu Yi could not help but pinch his forehead in frustration.

“Silly boy, it’s Daddy, not Guagua.”

“Guagua…” Little Qi had enough of screaming at the chattering box. Hence, he yawned with his little mouth, as he started to feel drowsy. When he needed to sleep, he would do so by himself without any assistance, and swiftly fall into dreamland.

Xunxun, on the other hand, needed some coaxing. She needed to smell the familiar smells around her, and be covered in her little baby blanket that carried the milk’s aroma, or she could not fall asleep.

Yan Huan tenderly pinched her daughter’s little cheek.

“Baby, your two brothers know how to call daddy and mummy already. What about you, when can I hear you speak?”

Xunxun held her mother’s finger and fiddled with it gleefully, ignoring her mother’s question.

The three children in the house had begun to move about. Especially since they had started to learn how to climb, they would scour the entire ground for their territory, scattering themselves all over the residence. Ye Shuyun had to look for them all the time, causing her back to ache from exhaustion.

Little Xunxun bit her finger, insisting adamantly to be let down on the floor.

Yan Huan had no choice but to concede to her demand, and gently laid her down. The little girl instantly bounced about, rolling and climbing all over the floor. However, at least she had started to learn how to climb from her two brothers recently, metamorphosing from a mollusk into a reptile. Although her movements were still slightly awkward and her tummy would drag across the floor, she slowly learned how to crawl properly from her incessant efforts. From seemingly boneless to scampering about, it was evident that the little girl had finally grown.

“Ma…ma…”

Xunxun climbed toward Yan Huan, raised her chubby little face, and smiled widely, revealing her two grain-sized, pearly white baby teeth.

Yan Huan was completely flabbergasted. Then, she knelt down and carried her daughter up, still stuck in complete disbelief.

“Baby, you know how to call mummy now!”

She leaned her head sideways, and broke into a huge smile again.

“Mama…”

“Such a good girl!” Yan Huan was so overjoyed, she gave several kisses to her daughter’s cheeks. Finally, she had grown up a little. Even though she developed at a much slower pace than her two brothers, her two sons evidently matured at a much faster rate than everyone else. They already know how to call ‘mummy’ and ‘daddy’ with surprising clarity, unlike Little Xunxun who was too slow. At last, she finally learned how to call ‘mummy.’

It could be that her two brothers taught her that.

“Call ‘daddy’ for me,” Yan Huan tried to coax the little girl. The little girl pondered for some time. Her quaint expression seemed to suggest that she was deep in her thoughts, before opening her mouth.

“Guagua.”

Good. Yan Huan lifted her daughter up and smoothed the wrinkles on her clothes, that were as crinkled as a lumpy pickle.

“Mama…” The little girl tugged at Yan Huan’s clothes again.

“Hmm, what is the matter?” Yan Huan pinched her daughter’s little cheek again. However, she already knew that Xunxun had her little agenda and was plotting something with her little mind.

The little girl extended her little finger and pointed at the cradle beside them.

“Baby, do you want to sleep?” Yan Huan brought her daughter to the little bed where Little Guang and Little Qi had already fallen soundly asleep. Only the little girl was wasting all her energy to kick up a ruckus, trying not to go to bed. Now, she was finally sleepy after all that vigorous activity.

“Hmm,” Xunxun replied, as she rubbed her eyes with her little fists. Her long eyelashes had also curled downward in fatigue and her eyelids felt heavy, slowly lulling her into a deep slumber.

Yan Huan lay her daughter down in the bed and tucked her into the blanket, which had Xunxun’s milky fragrance. The little girl pulled the corner of the blanket over, and gave it a sniff. When she noticed her own smell, she could then sleep in peace.

In mere moments, she had swiftly fallen into the dreamland. She would be quite easy to handle after she had fallen asleep, as she would sleep so soundly nothing could wake her up. After a day’s worth of vigorous activities, she would sleep like a log at night. She was quite noisy when she was smaller, but she had become quieter and more obedient after growing up, seemingly more and more like an elegant lady.

Yan Huan sat on the floor and took out a book to read while accompanying her three sleeping children. They were truly quite a handful sometimes, so she would not even have the time to take a sip of water. However, she was as blissful as she was exhausted. After all, she had originally believed that she could never have children in this life. Unexpected to her, God heard her prayers and blessed her with three little angels, especially Little Xunxun.

She and Lu Yi firmly believed that Xunxun was the child from their previous lives, small and beautiful, just like her. She had finally come to look for Yan Huan, her one true mother.

“Baby.” Yan Huan gently touched her daughter’s cheeks and whispered lovingly, “You will definitely grow up safely and peacefully in this life.”

The little girl was fair and soft, looking exceptionally adorable, like a bun that was freshly steamed. It seemed so soft, it could be pinched off in a single bite.

She placed her hand on her lap, and slowly flipped the pages as she perused the book.

The curtains fluttered gracefully in the billowing breeze, as rays of sunlight sneakily peered in through the gaps, feeling warm and fuzzy when they hit her skin.

Presently, all was well.

When Lu Yi opened the door, he saw Yan Huan sitting on the ground in the middle of the three sleeping children, flipping over a page of the book. Occasionally, she would raise her head to look at them, adjusting their blanket and patting their head. To her, nothing mattered more in her life than her three children now.

Who would have thought that Best Actress Yan Huan, who was the mighty elixir of the box office, was actually a good wife and a perfect mother?

“Are they all asleep?” Lu Yi asked, as he walked slowly over and sat beside Yan Huan. He gently touched his daughter’s little face, thinking to himself. If she’s a bit more obedient, everyone in the house would not feel as burdened.

“Yeah, they just fell asleep.” Yan Huan lowered her voice and pulled his large hand away, asking, “Didn’t you say you need to work overtime today. Why are you back so early?” She remembered that Lu Yi had informed her before leaving in the morning, that he would be quite busy at work today and would return later at night.
