Dong Shu had discovered that her husband did not dare to hug Yuanxi twenty days ago.
In the days before, she was immersed between ”My Yuanxi looks good again today” and ”My Yuanxi is so obedient”, and she felt that she was probably the happiest mother in the world.
However, in the past two days, she had vaguely sensed that her husband didn't seem to dare hug Yuanxi.
For the first two days, she wasn't sure, but after two days of careful observation, she was sure.
”Master, do you not like Yuanxi?” Dong Shu who had just eaten her fill was in her arms as she looked at Xu Shiqiu in distress.
At that moment, Yuanxi had the same pair of crescent eyes as Dong Shu, with eyes like black grapes staring right at the direction of her mother's voice.
At first, Xu Shiqiu did not think that Dong Shu was saying these words to him, because he thought that his wife was flaunting the truth in front of him.
But after hearing what Dong Shu said, he opened his eyes wide in shock, ”How could that be? My wife, don't think too much, how can I not like Yuanxi! ”
Xu Shiqiu was puzzled at first, but then he said in a firm and decisive manner, very firmly expressing his own thoughts.
However, when Dong Shu heard his words, she shook her head and said, ”If my husband likes Yuanxi, why isn't he willing to hug her?” After saying that, seeing that Hubby was about to speak, Dong Shu immediately continued, ”I have observed for two days, Hubby looked at Yuanxi at most. I reached out my hands to tease her, but I definitely won't hug her.”
Dong Shu's expression was very sad. She was very worried that Xu Shiqiu did not like Yuanxi and would not be as painful to him as his father in the future.
Xu Shiqiu never thought that his wife would find out that something was amiss even though he was so careful. He moved his lips, and decided to speak the truth, ”My wife, I'm worried that my bad luck will affect Yuanxi.”
The tone of his words was no different from before, but Xu Shiqiu still felt that he had used all the strength in his body to say these words.
Dong Shu naturally did not think that the reason Xu Shiqiu did not hug Yuanxi was because of this. She was so shocked that her mouth was wide open, and after being stunned for a good while, she finally took the initiative to give the Yuanxi in front of Xu Shiqiu.
”Hubby, hug Yuanxi right in front of my face. I'm watching you guys.” After Dong Shu said this, seeing that Xu Shiqiu did not react, she hurriedly continued: ”Husband, hug me! I don't believe that something will happen to his. Yuanxi is our daughter, and nothing will happen to her. ”
Dong Shu's words were firm and her tone did not allow any rejection.
Xu Shiqiu rarely saw Dong Shu like this, after a slight hesitation, he finally mustered up the courage to extend his hand towards Yuanxi.
At this moment, Yuanxi, who was slowly being handed to Xu Shiqiu by Dong Shu, did not know that her parents had changed because of what had happened. Her tiny body was wrapped in a bundle and she did not notice that the person who was hugging her had changed.
When Xu Shiqiu, who was carrying her, spoke, she finally opened her eyes and looked in Xu Shiqiu's direction.
It was the first time Dong Shu and Xu Shiqiu had raised a child. Seeing Yuanxi roll her eyes in the direction of Xu Shiqiu, they were certain that she had discovered a difference in him hugging her.
Seeing that her husband had hugged Yuanxi for a long time without anything happening to him, Dong Shu hurriedly looked at Xu Shiqiu in surprise and said, ”My husband, look at me. I knew that Yuanxi would be fine. ”
The current Xu Shiqiu was also very excited. Previously, even though he knew that with Yuanxi, he would be able to continue on since he was his blood-related daughter.
However, he only knew about it previously, so he didn't feel anything special about it.
It was only when he held Yuanxi and felt the weight on his hands that he truly understood the feeling of being connected by blood.
Seeing that Yuanxi started to doze off after such a long time, Xu Shiqiu quickly pulled her closer, imitating what he did before, and slowly beat her up.
Yuanxi quickly fell asleep under Xu Shiqiu's slaps. After seeing Yuanxi being coaxed into sleep by herself and nothing had happened for so long, Xu Shiqiu finally lifted Yuanxi who was in his embrace high up, and then placed his head onto her bundle.
The moment his head touched the bundle, Xu Shiqiu's tears immediately flowed out from his eyes.
Xu Shiqiu almost never cried after she understood.
Even in the past, when his entire family gathered together to eat during the new year, when he was alone in Shihuan Courtyard, he had never once cried.
But now, he cried.
He could feel his daughter's heartbeat. He could feel her breathing. He could tell that other than her eyes that looked like a wife, she looked like him.
The most important thing was that in the future, he would be able to hold his daughter in his arms and feel her growing.
In fact, Dong Shu could sense that Xu Shiqiu was crying, but after thinking about it, he did not say anything.
After waiting for her husband to calm his emotions and place Yuanxi by his side, she looked at him and said: ”Then can you hug Yuanxi every single day, hubby?”
”Alright.” Xu Shiqiu subconsciously opened his mouth to speak after hearing Dong Shu's words. After he finished speaking, he then suppressed his excitement and looked at Dong Shu: ”In the future, I will hug Yuanxi every day and personally experience her growth.”
