Chapter 271 - Little Jia is a big girl now (1/2)
Xu Liaowen did not know what to tell the little girl. Their ages were three years and some months apart. Would they ever be playmates? By the time Lingxi grew up, Little Jia would have so many friends that she would forget all about her 'Small Xixi'. Where did she get that nickname anyway?
After giving Kara the toys meant for Xu Lingxi, Little Jia took a toy robot and a toy supervillain from that large bag and gave walked towards Tangtang.
”Tangtang, ” she was still a little scared that the little boy would ignore her or shove her aside as usual.
Tangtang glanced up at the little girl.
”This is for you.” She handed over the toys.
Tangtang looked at the toys and liked them at first glance. He really wanted to accept them but...could he really accept gifts from girls? What if it made her think that he was willing to play with her? He still didn't want to play with childish little girls.
In the end, the toys were too tempting and he was also unwilling to make Little Jia sad. It wouldn't be kind of him. He reached to accept them. ”Thank you Little Jia.”
Little Jia was happy and sat opposite Tangtang. Her mood was quite good. ”I go to school now. Little Jia is now a big girl. Can you be my friend and play with me?”
Tangtang did not believe her. ”Really? Which school?”
”Royal Kindergarten.” Afraid that it was insufficient, Little Jia added the main point. ”I no longer cry all the time.”
Tangtang's mood warmed up by a notch. ”Then we can be friends and play together!”
He really disliked cry babies. When Little Jia was two, there was a time when Lu Shaoting had taken them to the beach for fun. They had built sand castles and when it was time to go home, Little Jia had cried for a long time because she couldn't carry her sandcastle home.
Hearing that she was no longer a cry baby, he was happy so he led her into his playroom.
”But who will take care of Lingxi? What if someone hurts her?” He was still worried.
Ever since his little sister was born, Tangtang would never feel safe unless Xu Lingxi was within his line of sight. He was always worried that someone would steal her away or hurt her.
He would literally run into his father's car as soon as school was over and jump out to sprint into the house when the car stopped. He only became less paranoid after being pacified and convinced by his parents that Lingxi is safe. Still, he would still worry every time he had to leave her for a while.
Little Jia thought Tangtang was being unnecessarily silly. ”Aren't Aunty Kara and Uncle Liaowen there? My second uncle is there with her too. With them watching over her, what could possibly happen?”
