Chapter 823 Let Xiao Ai have a complete childhood
"Speaking of..." Hanyu Kusunoki glanced at the nervous Mrs. Yoshida with a sly smile, "What gift should I give Ayumi tomorrow?"
"Really?" Ayumi's eyes lit up and she jumped up excitedly, "What is it?"
"Secret~" Hanyu Kusunoki blinked, "You'll know tomorrow."
Seeing her daughter cheering and jumping for joy, Mrs. Yoshida's eyes were full of tenderness. She quietly held Hanyu Kusunoki's hand tightly, thinking to herself: This "gift"... should be accepted by her daughter first~
..........
Nine o'clock in the evening, at the Yoshida household.
"Good night, Brother Nan!"
Ayumi stood at the bedroom door holding the cute new doll, her eyes full of reluctance yet a satisfied smile as she waved goodbye to Hanyu Kusunoki.
"Good night, little princess." Hanyu Kusunoki bent down slightly and kissed her forehead gently, his voice full of doting, "Have a good dream, maybe you will receive a gift tomorrow."
Mrs. Yoshida then walked into the room, carefully covered her daughter with a blanket, and said softly, "Go to sleep, baby. You have to get up early tomorrow."
"Yeah!" Ayumi closed her eyes obediently with a sweet smile on her lips.
Today is undoubtedly the best day for her.
With her dear brother Nan to play with her and her mother's meticulous care, she silently made a wish in her heart, hoping that every day in the future would be so happy.
Mrs. Yoshida walked out of the room quietly and closed her daughter's door. However, as soon as she turned around, Hanyu Kusunoki, who was waiting at the side, picked her up sideways.
"what!"
She screamed and quickly covered her mouth, afraid of waking Ayumi.
Hanyu Nan looked at the shy and expectant young lady in his arms, his mouth corners slightly raised, his eyes full of smiles. He held her and walked straight to the master bedroom, while laughing softly: "Madam, now is our 'account check' time..."
Mrs. Yoshida blushed and buried her head in his chest: "Sir..."
The door of the master bedroom was gently closed, blocking out the spring light from the room.
...........
............
It was already noon the next day when we left Yoshida's house.
In the morning, Hanyu Kusunoki played parent-child games with Ayumi and her daughter at home, and then went back with Ayumi's reluctant gaze.
Hanyu House.
Xiao Ai, who had just finished an experiment on monsters, came down from the seventh floor via the flower ladder. She snorted coldly at Hanyu Nan, who had come back at some point and was lying on the sofa playing like a big boss.
"Hmph~" Xiao Ai stood beside the sofa with her arms folded across her chest. Her delicate face was tense and her tone was filled with dissatisfaction: "Someone finally decided to come back?"
Hanyu Kusunoki lazily turned over, propped up his head with one hand, and said jokingly with a faint smile on his face, "Hey, is our little scientist jealous?"
"Who's jealous?" The arrogant loli unconsciously raised her voice a few notes: "I just feel sorry for Ayumi! She trusted you so much and treated you as a brother, but you actually, actually coveted her......"
People treat you as their brother and their future brother, but you actually want to be their father!
Hanyu Nan sat up and pulled the angry little girl into his arms: "Then tell me, am I not good to Ayumi?"
"This..." Xiao Ai was speechless for a moment.
Indeed, Hanyu Kusunoki is so good to Ayumi that he helps her with homework, takes her out to play, and takes her to parent-child activities... He even does better than many biological fathers.
"But...that's not why you should be a father!"
Hanyu Nan ruffled her hair, and rarely became serious. He looked into Ai's eyes and said seriously: "Ai, do you know what Ayumi needs most during her growth period?"
Xiao Ai was silent for a moment, and whispered: "Father's love..."
She is a scientist.
So she knows how huge the difference is between a child growing up in a single-parent family and a child who thrives in a family environment with both parents.
Children from single-parent families often have a desire for a complete family deep in their hearts.
"That's right." Hanyu Kusunoki nodded, "I'm just playing this role. As for Mrs. Yoshida..."
He deliberately dragged out the tone, looking at Xiao Ai's disdainful expression, he couldn't help laughing, "We are just simply taking care of Ayumi together."
Xiao Ai: “…”
Do you believe what I said?
Humph, you can be naughty so much, but you have to find a high-sounding excuse for yourself, saying that you are taking care of Ayumi together. Could it be that you are taking care of her in bed too?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai's dissatisfaction increased a little bit, and she punched him angrily, and kept muttering: "Ayumi is still a child."
"So?" Hanyu Kusunoki raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of amusement in his eyes, "Do you think I'm not good to Ayumi? Or..."
He deliberately leaned close to the little Loli's ear and lowered his voice, "Are you actually jealous?"
"What nonsense!" Xiao Ai jumped out of his arms like a furious cat, waving her little fists and shouting, "I just... just..."
"Just what?" Hanyu Kusunoki looked at her leisurely, with that expression that made people angry and funny still on his face.
Xiao Ai snorted coldly, trying to calm herself down, and said: "I'm just worried that someone won't be squeezed dry, and Ayumi said she would marry you when she grows up, let's see how you end up then."
Hanyu Kusunoki: “…”
Well, Ayumi actually said that before she married him, she could let her mother marry him so that they could always be a family.
"Don't worry~" He deliberately flexed his wrist with a smirk, his eyes revealing a hint of teasing, "My 'inventory' is sufficient, do you want to check the goods now?"
"Pervert!" Xiao Ai blushed and grabbed the pillow and threw it at him.
The pillow drew an arc in the air, carrying the anger of the little girl.
Hanyu Nan caught the pillow easily, and took the little girl back into his arms again, hugged her tightly, and said gently: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Xiao Ai hummed softly, but leaned her body honestly in his arms. She closed her eyes slightly, enjoying the tranquility and warmth of the moment.
Hanyu Kusunoki looked down at the awkward little guy in his arms, and his heart softened.
Of course he knew why Ai cared so much about Ayumi - in addition to friendship, it was more of a kind of sympathy.
Two little girls, one lost her father and the other lost her sister (although she has been found now), both long for a complete family and care.
It depends on whether the system is powerful enough.
Otherwise, if there is a chance, I can help the Miyano sisters find their mother so that they can have a complete childhood.
