"An Su bought this?" A flash of surprise crossed Ye Chenming's eyes as he saw the building blocks toy in the little one's hands.

The child is still the thin and small figure in my memory, the cautious appearance in my impression... just in new clothes. But it looks much more energetic than the previous few times.

Night Chen Ming has never met Xia Xia more than double digits in a year.

To be honest, when Ye Chenming first saw the little one, Xiaxia, he was really taken aback by her appearance.

The child was so thin that he looked unrecognizable; his big eyes twinkled and flickered, resembling a little ghost when glimpsed in the darkness.

Since then, Yechenming understood that An Su had no intention of taking care of the child at all. His attitude towards Xia Xia was like taking care of a cat or a dog. He would even use the excuse of the child being sick to purposely make him come and meet.

In An Su's heart, the child was merely a tool.

This was also one of the reasons why Ye Chenming later came to despise An Su.

"...Yes." Xia Xia nodded, staring at Ye Chenming sensitively. She sensed that he had also noticed her father's enormous change. Blinking her deep blue eyes, she absentmindedly grabbed the new rabbit-shaped pillow her father had bought and cautiously asked,

"Did Dad get sick? Will he still be the same as before?"

"Do you want him to stay like this?" Ye Chenming asked back.

Upon hearing the man in front calling him "father" like this, the little one's eyes, which were big and bright, sparkled with an expectant radiance under the dim light of the bedside lamp.

"Um."

Xia Xia pecked her head like a little chicken, sincerely hoping that her father would continue to be ill and not recover, so as not to return to the way things were before.

Yechenming couldn't help but soften his heart in the end and did not speak the words that An Su would eventually recover her memory.

Compared to these adults who have hidden intentions, children are innocent. Regardless of how Nie Chenming holds grudges against An Su, Xia Xia will always be a soft helper.

"Time to eat! Time to eat..."

An Su, who was outside the door, prepared dinner and heard no movement coming from Xia Xia's room. Anxiously, she worried that Ye Chenming might have evil intentions towards his son. So, she raised her voice and shouted several times.

He specifically looked up some information about Ye Chenming on the internet yesterday. The information he found was quite official, and online evaluations of Ye Chenming were very high. Despite being just in his thirties, he has already inherited the family business. Nowadays, he is undoubtedly a wealthy bachelor, with a handsome appearance, strong physique, and complete control over the power. He is undoubtedly the real-life version of the domineering CEO depicted in various romantic novels.

Moreover, Ye Chenming's private life is very clean, with almost no scandals. He still carries the title of being single until now, and countless men and women have racked their brains to try to climb into his bed.

Thinking like that, An Su then saw Ye Chenming coming out of the room with the little one in his arms.

Underneath the warm-colored wall lamp, there was a big and a small one, with a similarity degree of 99.99 percent!

It's simply a downsized version of Yechen Ming.

An Su bit her lip silently. How could her son inherit Ye Chenming's appearance? He clearly came out of her belly, for goodness sake!

Ye Chenming only provided a single sperm.

"Eat."

An Su watched as Ye Chenming gently placed Xia Xia into her seat, and then took the seat to her left. The two sat closely together, one big and one small, while An Su sat across from them, feeling like an outsider.

As a result, Yechenming immediately felt a strong sense of jealousy emanating from the dark and profound eyes of the person opposite him, who gave him a quick glance.

"......"

For dinner, I made shredded pork in fish sauce, braised carp, and fresh jumbo prawns that I specially bought from the seafood market in the afternoon.

An Su picked up a shrimp, removed its shell, and put the shrimp meat into Xia Xia's bowl.

The originally anticipated An Su putting food into his own bowl, but Ye Chenming ended up with nothing. His brows furrowed slightly, but he couldn't possibly contend with the child over things.

I saw An Su pick up another shrimp, peel off the shell, and put it into her own mouth.

Ye Chenming stayed silent, "......"

Why aren't you eating? After finishing the shrimp in his mouth, An Su licked his lips. Seeing Ye Chenming looking at him puzzledly, he thought he was worried about the quality of the ingredients.

"I bought fresh prawns that were transported freshly from the port."

"I only eat peeled shrimp," Ye Chenming said coldly, with a clear implication.

An Su couldn't help but be speechless in her heart.

Are you a four-year-old child, Big Brother? You even want me to peel a shrimp for you!
