Chapter 408 Mine!
An Xiulan nodded her head. They walked to the living room again to see a little girl sitting between Han Nanxian and Han Zixin. She came with no one else but Han Qian. It seemed like she was getting very close to her grandfather.
An Xiulan was not surprised to know that the man was in love with his granddaughter to the point that he would give her anything. Yeye had always loved his grandchildren. Even though his relationship with his only son was not good, it never changed what he felt for his grandchildren.
"Is it Han Yiyi?" An Xiulan asked. This child was beautiful to look at. And she had all the facial features of Han children. She resembled Han Zixin and Han Nanxian very much. Although the three children had different mothers, the similarities between all of them was surprising. It was as if they did not take many genes from their maternal side.
"Yes, come, I will introduce you to Yiyi "Song Xueyun said.
"Hello, Yiyi, "Song Xueyun smiled at the girl. The girl had also warmed up to her and so she smiled and waved at her back. "Meet my friend, Xiulan. You can call her Xiulan Jiejie."
The girl was a frequent visitor to their home. When the little Han princess met Han Nanxian for the first time, she decided that she belonged to this place. She had not known Han Nanxian for a long time but they both behaved as if they had known each other all their lives. Song Xueyun's heart melted each time she saw an exchange between the two of them. It was very sweet to see someone loving Han Nanxian as much as this child did. Maybe, he was born to be loved so dearly by his siblings. But if his siblings loved him dearly, it was also because he loved them more than anything else in this world.
An Xiulan smiled and waved at the girl but the latter was still sizing her up. It was as if she was trying to know something. Little Yiyi had not seen this pretty lady who was standing with her sister-in-law. The girl was trying to find out if this new lady was an ally or a foe.
Han Zixin who was sitting on the sofa suddenly stood up to walk to his girlfriend and wrapped an arm around her waist. "Where were you for so long?"
He had been looking for her for a long time but she ignored her for her bestie. How could he not sulk?
An Xiulan smiled at him and said, "I was talking with Yunyun."
"I missed you, "He whispered in her ear as he tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and pulled her closer to him. Those two were between so many people and they didn't care about anything. The other people just turned blind eye to their romance as they did not expect anything else other than this.
An Xiulan blushed at his actions and he smiled in reply as if satisfied with her reaction.
When Han Zixin smiled that brightly, Yiyi looked at An Xiulan in new light. When he smiled like that he looked like Han Nanxian who looked like her dad. This made her little head confused. Who could so many people look like her dad? In her little mind, everyone who looked like her father was a good man. This made her see Han Zixin as an ally rather than a foe.
Those two were whispering to each other and Yiyi was just looking at them. She could not understand why he was talking that sweetly to that girl but not to her. When it came to her, he would never treat her gently. He would only annoy her by trying to take her Gege away from her. Suddenly, she felt a burst of jealousy in her heart.
"What is it?" Han Nanxian asked the little girl. He could see that Yiyi was feeling a lot of things in her mind but she didn't know how to process them. Then again, she was a little girl. What did she even know about it!
Yiyi pointed at the couple who was hugging each other and asked, . "Second Ge and Jiejie? Hug why? He is mine."
Han Nanxian laughed. "Little Yiyi wants to hug Zixin gege?"
When Han Nanxian asked this question, Yiyi looked at him in confusion. Did she want to hug that mean second Gege? She did not know about it. But she knew that she wanted him to smile at her like he was smiling at that Jiejie.
Han Zixin heard his brother and asked the little girl, "You want to hug me?"
The girl harrumphed. Who wanted to hug him?!
"I will not, "Han Zixin said, teasing her. He hugged An Xiulan and said, "I only hug my baby."
Han Zixin did not know why he would always tease this toddler. He should be ashamed of bullying a kid but he did not. He loved to get the rise out of this kid. He loved to see her stomping her feet on the ground and fighting with him. She was the only person who would argue and fight with him until the last moment without breaking into tears despite her tiny size.
strong enough to fight against him. So, she stopped to watch the scene. She could see Song Xueyun taking a seat to enjoy the drama. An Xiulan rolled her eyes. This big man was teasing a baby. However, she could see how much fun he was having out of this. Since he was enjoying it, she did not stop it and the girl looked strong enough to fight against him. So, she stopped to watch the scene. She could see Song Xueyun taking a seat to enjoy the drama. It made her believe that this drama occurred more often than she knew. Anyways, she was all for it.
"Gege!" The girl complained to Han Nanxian. "I am the only baby!"
Everyone laughed at her reply. She was so used to getting pampered that she could not see someone else getting the same treatment.
"No, this is my baby, "Han Zixin said, hugging An Xiulan.
"Me. Baby, "Yiyi pointed at herself.
"No, my only baby, "Han Zixin said, kissing An Xiulan's cheeks.
Yiyi ran to Han Zixin and removed An Xiulan from him. When An Xiulan was away, she hugged his leg. She was very tiny when compared to his tall height. Looking at him angrily, she declared, "You. Mine."
An Xiulan looked at the little girl's bossy attitude and laughed, "So cute. You both are just the same."
Han Nanxian nodded his head. "They both look and behave the same."
An Xiulan nodded her head. "Teacher Han, you have free entertainment with these two around, don't you?"
Han Nanxian nodded his head."But they are hard to manage too."
An Xiulan and Han Nanxian turned their attention back to the two of them and saw them bickering again.
"You mine, "The little girl declared, "Not Jiejie's."
"She is your Saozi, not Jiejie, "Han Zixin said.
"Soazi, that, " the little girl pointed at Song Xueyun. She did not know why this new lady was Saozi too. Wasn't there one Saozi?
[Saozi is the title for Sister-in-law.]
"This is Saozi too, "Han Zixin said. Since she was his sister now, he had to make sure that she was calling her elders with the right titles, right? As an elder he had to make sure of it.
"Second Gege and Second Saozi?" She asked as if she was making it clear.
"Yes, "Han Zixin nodded his head.
Those two were still arguing and Han Qian entered the scene. He ignored Yiyi and Han Zixin again as it was something that was very common in their household. He decided to give his attention to the girl that he had not seen for so long. To say that he missed her would be an understatement. After all, she was his first favorite granddaughter who would now one day become the part of his family officially.
"Xiulan, come here, child, "Han Qian said as he looked at An Xiulan.
"Hello, Yeye, "An Xiulan greeted him. "How are you doing?"
"I am good, "He smiled. "My girl stopped visiting me."
An Xiulan felt bad about it. She was not ignoring him. She was just so busy with her life that she could not make time to even see him, "Sorry, Yeye. I will visit you soon."
Han Qian muttered, "As you should. This brat doesn't bring you around. What is the use of him?"
An Xiulan quickly said, "No. No. Yeye. You should not say this. He is a good man."
"Is he good to you?" Han Qian asked. Although he knew that his grandson was a fool for her, he still wanted to make sure that the brat was treating his favorite girl well. He would be very mad if he did not!
"Very, "An Xiulan laughed at the reply. He was more than treating her well.
He answered satisfied, "Good. I raised him well."
An Xiulan laughed.
Han Qian asked her, "You tell me what's a good man if he is not good to his lady?"
"Yes. Yes. Yeye."
