Chapter 302: Chapter 171: Celebrating the Little Ones’ Fourth Birthday【Long Chapter, Over Seven Thousand Words】_2
Oh, as expected, this is indeed our little ancestor!
Here to torment us.
“Alright, alright, you all go inside. Don’t disturb your mother and me,” Ye Fan waved his hand helplessly.
“Hey, Daddy, we’ll scoot off in a jiffy. Let’s go, Sister; Daddy wants to whisper sweet nothings to Mommy!” Little Fourth Ye Jie dragged her elder sister away.
The other two, the second and third, also tactfully left.
“Look, you’re still the one in control. You should be firmer, let them know that their dad has authority and power,” Bai Susu said to Ye Fan with amusement.
“Susu, come on, if I did that, wouldn’t you feel sorry for them?” Ye Fan rolled his eyes unhappily.
The child wasn’t only Ye Fan’s but also Bai Susu’s.
He couldn’t bring himself to do it, and Bai Susu was no different in her reluctance to discipline the children.
“As long as I don’t see it or know about it, there’s no problem!” Bai Susu said with a laugh.
She couldn’t bear it either.
“You really have your ways!” Ye Fan sat beside Bai Susu and stretched out his hand to touch her swollen belly, where there was a little life inside.
“Wife, when you went back to your hometown, was Grandpa in good health, and how’s the company?” Ye Fan asked.
The old man was in his sixties, which was indeed a matter of concern.
After all, the old man had always been very kind to Ye Fan, so he was genuinely worried.
“He’s alright, practicing Tai Chi every morning and evening. His health is quite good. The company is just so-so,” Bai Susu remarked.
“That’s good then, as long as Grandpa is fine!” Ye Fan played with Bai Susu’s long hair, braiding it into little plaits.
“Ye Fan, it’s just, I heard Grandpa mention something, and I don’t know whether it’s true or false,” Bai Susu said with a serious look on her little face, her eyes filled with deep curiosity.
This was what she had heard from her Grandpa.
Whether it was true or not, she really didn’t know.
Of course, her Grandpa, Bai Zhentian, heard it from his old friends at the border.
“What sort of thing?” Ye Fan asked casually.
He wasn’t very concerned, entirely focused on braiding Bai Susu’s hair.
He hadn’t expected his wife’s hair to be so lovely.
Smooth and soft, and very gentle to the touch.
He liked Bai Susu’s hair, finding it very comfortable to handle.
“Grandpa heard from his old friends that something seems off with the temperatures at the border. They’ve also mentioned something about the growth cycles of plants being not quite right,” Bai Susu explained.
Her little face was earnest, and her eyes were filled with intense curiosity.
“Is there any evidence for that, like any examples?” Ye Fan asked, seemingly nonchalant.
In truth, he already believed it to a certain extent.
But, he didn’t want Bai Susu to worry or to know too much.
After all, Bai Susu was pregnant now and couldn’t afford to have any major reactions.
“No, it’s just, that kind of feeling!” Bai Susu said.
“Sometimes feelings can be mistaken. Why worry about this stuff? Right now, you’re just a few months away from giving birth. Just take good care of yourself, and I’ll protect you,” Ye Fan said with a smile, stroking Bai Susu’s little face.
“I know, I’m just saying. Grandpa didn’t take it too seriously either,” Bai Susu remarked.
“Well, that settles it then. Don’t worry about these things,” Ye Fan consoled her.
“Mmm-hmm,” Bai Susu leaned softly against Ye Fan’s shoulder, her little face beaming with a smile.
Even if something did happen, she wouldn’t be scared.
Because Ye Fan was with her.
She knew that Ye Fan would protect her and the children.
Of course, she also wanted to become stronger, so as not to hold Ye Fan back.
“Susu, no matter what the future holds, our family will never be separated. I will always protect you all,” Ye Fan said.
Yes.
No matter the difficulties that the future might bring, he had to strive with all his might to protect the children, his wife, and their parents, among others.
Hopefully, such situations would come later rather than sooner, giving him more time to prepare and to be more confident.
“Ye Fan, in a few days, it’s the children’s birthday. How are we going to celebrate it?” Bai Susu asked.
Truth be told, she was quite perplexed.
Thinking about what gifts to give to the children; she didn’t know what to choose, and when it came to taking them out, she didn’t know where they wanted to go.
It was a real dilemma!
It was their fourth birthday, after all.
“Well, we could have a family dinner at home, and then just buy some presents. Kids don’t really want much, and besides, they don’t lack anything. They probably don’t even know what gifts they want. We could try to get them some tasty treats,” Ye Fan pondered and responded.
Places like amusement parks, they had visited not long ago, and they were practically always watching animals.
Where else could he take the kids for fun?
Ye Fan really couldn’t think of anywhere else, so just gathering at home would do.
Buying some presents for the kids would be OK.
That was his plan anyway.
“Okay, I’ll listen to you!” Bai Susu said with a smile.
What Ye Fan said made sense.
Truly, the best thing was having the family together on such a day.
~~~~~ Two days later
On this day, the children’s birthday, Bai Susu personally cooked some delicious food for them.
Ye Fan wanted to help, but Bai Susu wouldn’t let him into the kitchen; the nanny was helping Bai Susu prepare the meal.
