Chapter 361 Little Zhanzhan Taking A Babysteps To The World
Ran Xueyi could not hold back the tears that pooled into her eyes. Three years ago, she thought that she was the only one who was having a hard time and suffering. But she didn't think that Song Yu Han had it too hard.
When she was hurting and having pregnancy pains, he watched her. And as much as he wanted to step forward and support her by just being by her side, he couldn't do it because of the things and people that he had made enemies with.
Thankfully, all the misunderstanding and hidden events that took place in their lives within that three years of separation was revealed before it could take root in their hearts.
Little Zhanzhan, who was growing bored, suddenly raised his head and looked ahead towards the fountain across the balcony that they were at. A young girl was playing near the fountain together with another two girls.
"Mommy, can I play there?"
Ran Xueyi heard Little Zhanzhan call her and glanced down at him. She saw him pointing his finger at the fountain and quickly said, "Of course, you can!"
At the same time, Song Yu Han said, "No, you can't."
Ran Xueyi turned to him and raised her eyebrow, asking for an explanation.
Song Yu Han also didn't delay his explanation and told her, "It's cold at night. If he gets soaked, it'll be easy for Zhanzhan to get sick."
"But it's the first time that he will play with other kids of his age. Zhanzhan will feel extremely bored tagging along with us the whole party." Ran Xueyi tried to convince him even though she knew he was right.
"I know you're worried but this is our Zhanzhan's first time asking to play with other children. Just let him go, okay? Hubby..." Ran Xueyi continued and attacked him with cuteness.
Little Zhanzhan also stared at his father with his big light brown eyes, silently manifesting his wish to Song Yu Han.
Attacked by two adorable faces, Song Yu Han, who was renowned as the Devil's Incarnate, could not resist either.
Sighing, he conceded to their wish and said, "Alright, Zhanzhan can go and play with them. But, remember if you come back with a cold, you won't be able to play sometime again, alright?"
Ran Xueyi was slightly upset by his bargaining tone, but since Song Yu Han had already given permission for Little Zhanzhan to play, she didn't say anything against it. After all, it was still their son's health that was most important to them.
Little Zhanzhan quickly ran towards the fountain where other kids were playing. Because of his adorable and handsome appearance, he caught several people's attention and they couldn't help but praise him.
"Hey, isn't that boy a little too handsome? I bet his parents are a pair of beauties too," one guest praised.
"Who could be that boy's parents? I wonder if we could pair our daughter with their son." Another one commented with ambition, "Our grandchildren will absolutely look heavenly if they paired up."
On the side, Mr. Wang Linkai, who heard this by chance, turned to that direction in time to see Song Yu Han looking at him.
In that instance, Mr. Wang Linkai understood what the young master wanted. Waving for a guard to come to him, Mr. Wang Linkai ordered, "Look after that boy, make sure that he's safe until the end of the party. If you do that, I will give you a bonus."
The guard happily accepted his orders and went to the fountain but didn't move too closely to the children, for fear that his menacing tall figure would scare them away.
Little Zhanzhan made his first step to broadening his own world to play with children. That was enough to make Ran Xueyi proud of him. However, she seemed to forget something very important.
Ran Xueyi stared at the kids near the fountain and found out why she felt that something was wrong... It was because the kids who were playing nearby the fountain were all girls.
"This... Is this alright?"
Song Yu Han held her hand and looked at Little Zhanzhan as well, "What is?"
"Maybe I'm worrying too much but isn't too early for him to be around girls? What happens if he turns into a womanizer when he grows older?" Ran Xueyi expressed her concerns. She naturally didn't want their son to become a heart stealer.
Song Yu Han found her worried expression endearing. He wrapped an arm around her waist as he stood behind her and kissed her neck, whispering, "We both gave him the genes that made him too handsome. But I'm sure he won't turn into a scumbag. Let him enjoy it."
"Says the person who initially didn't want to let him go and play," she retorted.
Song Yu Han: "...."
At this time, Grandfather Ran received Ran Xueyi's message telling him where they were located. He got rid of the old men who were surrounding him and stood in front of the entrance of the balcony.
Seeing the sight in front of him where two figures were hugging each other passionately, Grandfather Ran wondered if he went to the wrong location.
But, that's his granddaughter in that man's arms.
Ran Xueyi and Song Yu Han did not know that they were being watched from behind. The two were laughing happily, enjoying each other's warm embrace under the moonlight and cold caress of the wind. The scene at the balcony was similar to a painting painted by an expert.
In the end, Grandfather didn't want to disturb such a beautiful scene and backed away after closing the entrance to the balcony to isolate them from prying eyes.
Although he didn't get to see the face of the man who married Ran Xueyi, he trusted what he had heard and saw just now.
The genuine sounds of laughter, and display of love between them could not be faked.
And that was enough for Grandfather Ran; seeing his granddaughter happy was the biggest gift he could get in these decades of disappointments.
He just wanted the best for Ran Xueyi. It didn't matter what his opinions were.
