Piggyback Ride

"Come, darling, put on your shoes. Let's go home."

Ying Bao was sitting on the edge of the bed. Xu Xiyan helped her daughter put on her tiny leather shoes.

Jing Huaduo had been feeling guilty all this time for losing sight of Ying Bao on the day of her kidnapping. He said kindly, "Ying Bao, how about I carry you?"

Ying Bao pursed her tiny lips together. She looked him over and shook her head. "I don't want Great-grandpa to carry me. You're an old man, your bones break easily. They may break if you carry me."

"Haha… oh, you…"

Jing Huaduo did not know whether to laugh or be offended. He hadn't expected the little girl to remember the things he had told her!

Ye Xun opened his arms and asked, "My sweet little daughter, how about a hug?"

Again, the little girl shook her head. She said seriously, "Uncle Tree-Leaf, you should go hug Auntie Sanyan instead. Don't keep her waiting!"

"…"

What was she talking about?
