Chapter 675: We Are Your Brothers Too

Li Beijue had just come out of the room when he heard Mobai ask this, and he immediately frowned slightly.

Jiang Baobao was also stunned for a moment, her previously happy expression instantly becoming somewhat conflicted.

"Mobai, Yanbao, you two come into the room first."

Li Beijue waved at the two little ones, signaling them to come in.

The two little ones then obediently nodded and returned to the room.

Jiang Baobao closed the door behind her, hesitated for a moment, and exchanged a look with Li Beijue.

The tacit understanding between the two of them no longer required words.

The next second, Li Beijue spoke slowly: "Daddy has something he wants to tell you..."

"Daddy, go ahead!"

Mobai nodded, and seeing that Li Beijue's expression was somewhat serious, he couldn't help but straighten his own little face as well.

Jiang Baobao also sighed and pulled the two little ones to sit down on the sofa.

Only then did she tell them everything that had happened during this period.

After listening, the two little ones fell into silence in unison.

A long while later—"That Brother Shitou... is he really not to be found anymore?"

Yanbao thought of what Jiang Baobao had just said about him falling into the sea, and he couldn't help but feel a bit sad inside.

Mobai also followed up by asking: "Daddy, Mommy, is that brother really never coming back?"

"Daddy and Mommy have already gone to look, he..."

Whenever Jiang Baobao brought up this matter, she felt a tightness in her chest, and she shook her head helplessly.

Mobai and Yanbao looked at each other, their eyes filled with a shared sadness.

"That brother was so good to Tiantian; Tiantian must be heartbroken..."

Mobai changed his attitude from just a moment ago when he wanted to wake his sister up, and his tone of voice became somewhat cautious.

Yanbao was even more heartbroken: "Tiantian has suffered a lot during this time. Mommy, don't worry, we will definitely take good care of Tiantian. When we grow up, we can protect Tiantian! We won't let her encounter bad people again!"

"Right! Mommy! We two can also protect Tiantian!"

As Mobai said this, he couldn't help but shake his little fist indignantly: "What kind of skill is it for a bad guy to bully a girl! If he had snatched me away back then, I would have definitely let him know how tough I am!"

Jiang Baobao felt warmed inside by what the two little ones said, and upon hearing this, she was almost amused into laughing by Mobai.

"You three are all Mommy's heart and soul. Mommy doesn't want you to encounter any bad people, but... Mommy has a task for you. During this time... you need to spend more time with Tiantian and help her move past the sadness of Brother Shitou as soon as possible, okay?"

"Okay!"

Mobai agreed without hesitation, and with a solemn face, he promised Jiang Baobao: "Daddy and Mommy, don't worry! Yanbao and I will definitely make Tiantian happy every day!"

"Good, then I'll leave it to you."

Li Beijue also couldn't help but be amused by Mobai.

After the few of them chatted for a while, Mobai pulled Yanbao along, intending to go check on Tiantian's condition.

The two little ones held hands and arrived at the door of the room, tentatively knocking on the door.

"Knock, knock, knock—"

The door rang softly three times.

"Mommy, come in."

Tiantian's voice sounded, still appearing somewhat listless, as she thought the person outside the door was Jiang Baobao.

Mobai and Yanbao held hands and then pushed open the door.

Immediately, they saw that Tiantian had already sat up and was leaning against the bedside.

"Tiantian! Are you surprised to see us!"

Mobai was the first to reveal a big, bright smile at Tiantian.

Yanbao also hurriedly walked in, took Tiantian's little hand, and asked with concern: "Tiantian, Mommy said you were sick a while ago, are you better now?"

Neither of them mentioned her kidnapping, only looking at her with concern.

The little girl stared blankly at the two brothers who had suddenly appeared, unable to process it for a moment.

Mobai, however, pulled a chocolate out of his pocket as if performing magic and stuffed it into Tiantian's hand.

"Tiantian, this is your favorite chocolate! I secretly hid a few pieces in my pocket when I went out! Don't let Mommy know, okay..."

"..."

He winked playfully at Tiantian.

Tiantian didn't speak; looking at the chocolate in her palm, she suddenly pouted.

Then the next second—"Waa!"

The little girl suddenly burst into loud tears.

Mobai and Yanbao were instantly startled and hurriedly scrambled to find tissues.

"Tiantian, don't cry! I... I'll tell you a joke, okay!"

While helping her wipe away her tears, Mobai racked his brains trying to think of a joke to tell.

Yanbao was also flustered and quickly took other snacks out of his little backpack, lining them up in a full row in front of the little girl.

"Tiantian, don't cry... you... look, there are so many delicious things here! We brought them all for you!"

As he spoke, he quickly unwrapped a lollipop and stuffed it into Tiantian's hand.

"Wuu... Brother Yanbao... Brother Mobai..."

Tiantian clutched the lollipop and held onto her two brothers' hands, but she couldn't help but think of her Brother Shitou.

If only Brother Shitou were here too...

Brother Mobai and Brother Yanbao would definitely like him!

"Tiantian, don't cry anymore... Mommy says crying will make your eyes puffy, and if a little princess's eyes are puffy, she won't look pretty anymore..."

Mobai held a tissue, wiping away Tiantian's tears bit by bit.

"Mm..."

Tiantian nodded obediently, but she still couldn't help feeling sad, and said in a small voice: "Brother Mobai, Brother Yan... I miss Brother Shitou..."

"..."

"Mommy has already told us."

Yanbao held Tiantian's little hand and persuaded her earnestly: "Tiantian, Daddy once told me that when people are gone, they turn into stars in the sky, so... if you miss Brother Shitou, how about we watch the stars with you? He will always be in the sky keeping you company..."

"Right! We will also always be with you! We are your brothers too!"

Mobai rubbed Tiantian's little head like a little adult, then patted his chest and promised: "In the future, Yanbao and I will definitely protect you well! We won't let bad people bully you ever again!"

"Right! We won't let bad people bully you!"

Yanbao immediately chimed in.

Looking at the two of them, Tiantian's crying finally gradually stopped, leaving only her eyes still red, but she took the initiative to hold both of their hands, looking at them pitifully.

Mobai and Yanbao were instantly heartbroken, hurriedly telling jokes and performing "acts," wanting to make Tiantian happy.

Li Beijue and Jiang Baobao stood in the hallway, listening to the two "brothers" in the room giving their all in their "performance," not going in to disturb them, just exchanging a glance, their eyes filled with the same gratification.

It's so good to have these three little ones...

Even after many, many years, even if the two of them are no longer around.

The three of them will still support each other and walk through life together...

How wonderful!
