Little Watermelon likes to stay with Song Shilin.

That can be seen from his initiative to ask Secretary Chu to take him to look for Song Shilin when classes are over this afternoon.

Secretary Chu teases him, “You like Uncle Song very much?”

Little Watermelon nods with the rosy cheek but is unwilling to tell the reason.

Secretary Chu takes little Watermelon in one hand and holds takeout in the other hand. He walks to the president’s office and knocks at the door under the surprising gaze of the company.

“Come in.”

Secretary Chu puts the takeout box on the tea table, walks over, picks up the document which is approved by Song Shilin and leaves.

Song Shilin looks at little Watermelon standing in the middle of the house and says, “You can eat first if you are hungry.”

Little Watermelon is not hungry. He watches cartoons happily with the Ipad that Secretary Chu gives him.

Suddenly a dark shadow appears in front of little Watermelon, the Ipad in his hand is put away before little Watermelon reacts in time.

Song Shilin puts the takeout on the table, and they sit side by side to have the meal.

“Uncle Song, I like you very much.” After eating a piece of meat, little Watermelon suddenly expresses his love with a smile.

Song Shilin is stunned, stops picking the food off for a moment and pretends to say casually, “Why?”

“Because Papa likes you.” Little Watermelon blinks and whispers, “there are many photos of Uncle Song in my home.”

Song Shilin’s hands with chopsticks tighten abruptly, his expression is indifferent, but his tone is gentler, “How do you know it?”

Little Watermelon mumbles, “Little Watermelon sees that Papa often kisses Uncle Song’s photos.”

Song Shilin lowers his eyes. He puts down the chopsticks after a while and touches little Watermelon’s hair.

As the saying goes, children speak the truth.

After sharing his secret with his favorite Uncle Song, little Watermelon is happier, even eating more vegetables that he doesn’t usually like.
