Chapter 21 - 21 21 Can You Take Me to the Orphanage
Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Can You Take Me to the Orphanage Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Can You Take Me to the Orphanage “I’ll do it myself,” Xiao Jinghan said with a slightly heavy gaze, looking at the little girl on the ground seriously grabbing his shoes.
Such a sensible child really tugs at one’s heartstrings, just like her mother, irresistibly evoking a protective instinct.
Hearing Xiao Jinghan say he would do it himself, the little girl quickly stood up and turned around, dashing into the bathroom.
After changing into slippers, Xiao Jinghan did not rush to find the little girl; first, he carried Ye Weiwei to find a bed.
The apartment Ye Weiwei rented was a one-bedroom, which meant the living room was the bedroom, and the bedroom was also the living room.
The 1.5-meter wide bed looked quite worn, but the bedding was warm, obviously specially washed by them.
Xiao Jinghan carefully placed Ye Weiwei on the bed, pulling the blanket over her.
He turned around, ready to check on the little girl, when Ye Weiwei’s hand tightly gripped his wrist, murmuring, “Cash cow, don’t leave. I want wealth, lots and lots of money.”
Xiao Jinghan’s gaze softened once again, and he sat by the bed, gazing deeply at the little woman on the bed.
“Uncle, the hot water is here! You wash your feet first!”
Just then, the little girl came out with a washbasin, her eyes wide open, as if filled with the vastness of stars and ocean.
When Xiao Jinghan wanted to say it wasn’t necessary, the little girl preemptively placed the basin under his feet.
Her fair little hands grabbed his big feet, not at all squeamish as she quickly pulled off his black socks, “Uncle, Xixi is very well-behaved. Xixi can wash your feet every day. As long as you treat Mommy well.”
Bang…
Xiao Jinghan’s heart felt as though it had been struck by something, giving rise to an indescribable heartache. The child was trying to please him, using this method to make him cherish her mother.
Why is this so heart-wrenching?
While Xiao Jinghan felt sympathetic, the little girl had already put both his feet in the basin. The water temperature was just right, and the little guy cupped water in her hands, gently wetting the top of his feet.
“Uncle, you will marry my mommy, right?” the little girl asked again.
Xiao Jinghan didn’t say a word, still in shock.
His silence filled the little girl with unease; the little guy nervously looked up, tears shimmering in her eyes, “Uncle, please, you must marry my mommy. My mommy is the best woman in the world. If you think I’m a burden, you can send me to the orphanage, and it would be enough to visit me once a week. Please, please don’t abandon my mommy. She’s very pitiful and has it tough. If you marry my mommy, I can keep being good forever and never disturb you.”
Xiao Jinghan had never encountered such a child before, one that made his heart ache to the point of suffocation.
Silly little thing, she’s so good, how could he not want her, how could he send her to an orphanage.
Involuntarily, Xiao Jinghan’s hand pressed on the little girl’s head, his voice deep and pleasant, “I won’t send you to the orphanage.”
“Really?” The little girl’s eyes lit up, and she asked with a sob, “Then will you marry my mommy?”
Xiao Jinghan glanced back at the woman on the bed, who was sleeping deeply, a slight smile on his lips, he made a shushing gesture, speaking as if very carefully, “I will, but it’s our secret for now, and you can’t tell your mommy.”
The little girl nodded vigorously, speaking with a tinge of excitement, “Uncle is planning to give mommy a surprise, right?”
“Correct,” Xiao Jinghan nodded.
He wasn’t lying; he indeed had thoughts of marrying Ye Weiwei. He was a man very aware of his own feelings, knowing ever since Ye Weiwei took the initiative to embrace him, he couldn’t live without this woman for the rest of his life.
Since he can’t live without her, then he would keep her by his side. To dispel all her grievances in his own way.
