Bai Susu had been looking for quite a while but couldnât discern anything.
Soon, Ye Fan and Zhuge came back.
Ye Fan approached Bai Susu and gently nudged the little girl.
âWhy are you sitting here all by yourself, whatâs up?â Ye Fan asked.
âNothing much, just feeling a bit bored, Iâll tell you some good news later!â Bai Susu gave a mysterious smile.
Imagine if Ye Fan knew she was pregnant, he would be so ecstatic.
But now was not the time to tell him.
O(â©_â©)O haha~
âWhat good news that you canât even tell me now?â Ye Fan said.
This girl is getting naughtier by the day.
But what could the good news be?
Did we make big money?
Something about the company?
Or whatâ¦
Anyway, Ye Fan figured it probably wasnât any of those things.
He couldnât think of anything else.
âWhat is it, just tell me!â Ye Fan said with a smile, watching Bai Susu.
The little girl was actually playing coy with him.
âI said Iâd tell you later, so Iâll tell you later, hmph!â Bai Susu turned her little face away, then spoke.
âAlright, youâre killing me with curiosity,â Ye Fan said.
And he was, truly dying of curiosity.
What on earth could it be? Ye Fanâs curiosity grew and grew.
No choice!
He hadnât been quite interested at first.
But seeing Bai Susu acting so secretive, he became curious; she had successfully hooked his curiosity.
Ah, but the girl wasnât talking!
Ye Fan felt as if there was a cat scratching at his heart, it was really quite itchingly uncomfortable!
No choice!
He could only wait until Bai Susu was willing to speak.
âYe Fan, Niuniu isnât an ordinary bird, is she?â Bai Susu looked into the distance, slowly starting to speak.
This bird was too spirited.
She felt it certainly couldnât be compared with common birds.
Where had Ye Fan found such a bird?
âWhy would you ask that?â Ye Fan was taken aback. Did the girl know something?
Had he talked in his sleep and given something away?
Thisâ¦
Ye Fan was somewhat at a loss.
He was a bit scared!
âI just feel that Niuniu is too clever. She doesnât look like other birds at a glance. I used to think she was a chick, and now sheâs become a bird, so beautiful. And, well, she can play with the kids, understand human language. I just think, no, wait, right, did you say you found this bird?â Bai Susu looked at Ye Fan and spoke.
Regardless of whether the bird truly had such spirit, it was true that it was good to the children.
She wasnât foolish, she could see that.
Niuniu and the kids had a deep bond, and of course, she had a deep relationship with Ye Fan too. However, the Little Red Bird seemed to always go to Little Fourth Ye Jie to hang out.
This was, in fact, a bit strange to Bai Susu.
âAh, didnât I tell you? I found an egg, and then it hatched in my hands, and out came this bald chicken, er, well, now itâs a bird.â Ye Fan said.
He had won it in a draw, and the System had just given him an egg to incubate.
Back then, donât mention how frustrated he was.
A grown man, hatching an egg.
If others knew about it, they would surely die laughing.
Thankfully, apart from heaven and earth, only the System knew, and then himself.
Thatâs how he managed to save face.
âLike this, I feel this Little Red Bird is a bit extraordinary. It looks just like the Vermilion Bird described in books. Do you think it could be the Vermilion Bird? But it doesnât make sense for it to be so small.â Bai Susu frowned, gazing at the Little Red Bird a short distance away.
It was unclear whether she was talking to herself or asking Ye Fan.
Ye Fan, upon hearing this, was instantly surprised.
Damn!
She had actually guessed correctly!
This girl was really clever.
Guessing correctly just like that.
She was really quick-witted.
But how could he possibly admit to it? If he did, then later onâ¦
If he didnât admit it, and things got exposed, he would be doomed!
So, all he could do was muddle through.
âWho knows? I canât tell either,â Ye Fan shrugged his shoulders, then spoke somewhat helplessly.
âFine then!â Bai Susu said lightly, making it hard to discern what she was thinking.
âYe Fan, no matter what you do, I support you. Do you remember what I told you before? No matter what you do, I will believe in you unconditionally. I know you have some secrets, maybe youâre not comfortable sharing with me, or maybe youâre afraid it will affect me negatively. I understand. I just want to tell you, from the moment I married you, I became your person. Alive, Iâm yours; dead, Iâll be your ghost. Understand?â Bai Susu articulated word by word.
Each word weighed heavily, striking at the heart of Ye Fan.
âDonât talk like that. I do have some things to deal with, but I keep them from you for your own good. Trust me, weâll definitely live happily ever after. Donât talk about dying, if anyone has to die it will be me in front of you!â Ye Fan hugged Bai Susu from behind.
This silly girl, always thinking of such things.
Why worry about death when weâre living a good life?
He, Ye Fan, would never let his wife, Bai Susu, come to any harm, even if it cost him his life.
And, of course, his precious children as well.
They were his life.
In this life, what he cared for most was his family.
Thatâs why he would try his utmost to protect them.
âWhat are you guys up to, come and eat! The four of you, come back and have dinner!â Just then, Mother Ye, still with an apron tied around her waist, called out to everyone.
