Chapter 191: Anything You Want to Do Is Fine

~7 min read 1,340 words

Before this, Xiaofeng did not have her own room; when they were in Dali, she slept in the same room as her mother, and her mother promised her that when she grew up, she would give her a room.

She thought all rooms were as big as those in homestays, about ten-plus square meters, because she later went to her aunt's house, and although her aunt's house was large in area, the rooms were not very big.

Now that she had gone up to the fourth floor and saw the room her grandmother had prepared for her, she couldn't help but feel dazzled.

This room was too dreamy!

The ceiling was very high, so it had been made into a dreamy roof with white clouds and the moon floating on it; the room was filled with even more furnishings: there were tents, rockeries, shell-style chairs, an elephant-style fireplace, and the walls were a dreamy pink...

Xiaofeng really loved this place too much!

Ye Caiyue pulled Xiaofeng again and said, "The room next door, and the one next to that, are all yours."

The area next door was the toy area; half the room was toys, with Barbie dolls that all girls like, tech-style Plants vs. Zombies and dynamic motorcycles, and there was also a picture book area where she could sit on a turtle-shaped sofa to read.

Next to that was her walk-in closet.

Seeing the walk-in closet, she couldn't help but exclaim, "So many pretty clothes."

Ye Caiyue held her little hand: "These here are all your little skirts, these here are sets, these are pajamas, and there are also ones for ice skating, horseback riding, and even little formal dresses."

Xiaofeng covered her mouth; she had only ever seen so many beautiful clothes on television.

She didn't have much of a concept of clothes and didn't know which ones were pretty, but she liked the ones with lots of sequins, and puffy skirts, like a little princess, but she also liked the suit sets—so cool, as if she could save the world.

So, this is what a home is like.

Ye Caiyue asked, "Xiaofeng, do you like this home?"

Xiaofeng nodded: "I like it."

Ye Caiyue said again, "Then shall Grandma take you to play in the garden outside? We'll take a sightseeing car for a spin, how about that?"

Xiaofeng became excited again.

That day, Xiaofeng played inside the Manor, with her grandfather, grandmother, and great-grandfather following behind; the whole group accompanied her like stars surrounding the moon, introducing the Manor to her, picking fruit in the garden for her, as well as vegetables planted by the gardener, saying that when summer comes, they would take her to the pool to swim.

Therefore, on this day, even though her mother was not by her side, Xiaofeng did not feel lost; she was full of curiosity about everything in the Manor, and she especially liked her own little world of toys, climbing up and down, having a great time.

Not until she was extremely tired from playing did Ye Caiyue give Xiaofeng a bath.

There were servants in the house who could bathe Xiaofeng, but Ye Caiyue believed she could do these things perfectly well herself, and Xiaofeng was so big now, easier to take care of than a newborn baby; with Han Dongbei by her side, couldn't the two of them take care of one little girl?

Xiaofeng was too tired from playing today; after her bath, she was so sleepy while getting dressed that she kept rubbing her eyes, and the moment Han Yangting picked her up and put her on the bed, she fell asleep.

Han Yangting tucked the quilt in for her and kissed her on the face.

Ye Caiyue went to kiss the other side of Xiaofeng's face.

Han Dongbei went to kiss Xiaofeng's forehead.

Han Yangting said to his parents, "You two should go back and rest too; Xiaofeng just arrived today, and I'm afraid she'll be scared if she wakes up at night, so I'll sleep with her tonight."

Ye Caiyue said, "You are her father; it's not good for a father to sleep with her, right? Let me stay here and accompany her instead; she is very close to Grandma now."

Han Yangting disagreed: "Xiaofeng is still young, and I have consulted experts; girls can sleep with their fathers before the age of 6, and after 6, if she lacks a sense of security, she can still share a room with her father until she feels secure and is willing to sleep alone."

"But I think Grandma smells better; Grandma is a woman, and the scent is like her mother's." Ye Caiyue refused to leave, looking at Xiaofeng's sleeping face, thinking the child was adorable no matter how she looked at her.

Han Yangting didn't say a word, only looking at his mother with a look of disdain.

Fine, Ye Caiyue didn't argue back; she couldn't out-compete him.

Han Dongbei also said to Ye Caiyue, "A-Yue, then... then let's go first, and come see Xiaofeng again tomorrow morning."

Afterwards, the two left Xiaofeng's room with great reluctance.

Meanwhile, Han Yangting lay down beside Xiaofeng, turned the room lights to the dimmest setting, and kept watching Xiaofeng's face, smiling every little while, smiling again after a while, doting on her endlessly.

Just as he finally fell asleep, Xiaofeng moved a little, and he immediately woke up in alarm, checking to see if Xiaofeng had kicked off her quilt, and worrying that she might wake up thirsty and want water.

Xiaofeng slept until dawn.

After waking up, seeing her father beside her and the relatively unfamiliar room, she suddenly felt lost.

Without her mother by her side, she felt a little like crying.

Moreover, children usually have morning grumpiness, and being in an unfamiliar environment, it was the time when her morning grumpiness was at its peak.

Seeing Xiaofeng was up, Han Yangting hurriedly asked her, "Good morning, Xiaofeng."

Xiaofeng's eyes brimmed with tears, and she didn't say a word.

Anyone could see that she was missing her mother.

Seeing this, Han Yangting couldn't help but coax her: "Xiaofeng was very well-behaved and great yesterday, let's be great today too, okay?"

Xiaofeng was still lost.

Just then, Ye Caiyue's voice came from outside the door: "Is Xiaofeng awake?"

Then the room door opened.

Ye Caiyue walked in thick-skinned and smiled: "I heard sounds inside; sure enough, Xiaofeng is awake. Xiaofeng, it's Grandma."

Xiaofeng smiled politely at Grandma.

After all, Grandma was very enthusiastic.

Han Yangting couldn't help but ask Ye Caiyue, "Did you stand guard outside all night?"

"Of course not, I just woke up early."

Han Dongbei behind her said, "Your mother has been guarding outside for half an hour."

"Don't talk nonsense." Ye Caiyue glared at Han Dongbei.

Afterwards, Ye Caiyue went to kiss Xiaofeng and said, "Xiaofeng, shall Grandma take you to the bathroom? You must have a full bladder now, right?"

Xiaofeng nodded; she always had to pee first thing when she woke up every day.

Ye Caiyue carried Xiaofeng to the bathroom, coaxing her as she carried her: "Does our Xiaofeng usually pee by herself or does Mommy carry you to pee?"

Xiaofeng finally spoke, saying, "Xiaofeng pees by herself."

"Xiaofeng is so great; whose child is this, how can she be so great? I've lived this long and have never seen such a sensible child."

Xiaofeng was praised and temporarily forgot her disappointment; she was thinking, if she did every single thing wonderfully, would she receive even more praise?

"Xiaofeng, what would you like to eat for breakfast in a little while? Grandma will take you downstairs; you can tell our family's chef whatever you want to eat, okay?"

Xiaofeng said, "I want to eat pizza."

"Alright, then before we go down, Grandma will change your clothes first; you pick whichever outfit you want to wear, okay?"

Xiaofeng nodded, ran over, and picked out a summer princess dress.

Han Dongbei said, "This is for summer, wow."
