25 Climbing the Tree
The mango tree was very tall, with red lanterns hanging around it, illuminating the surroundings. At this moment, the mango was already ripe. The moment it approached, it could smell the fragrance.
"Mommy, I want that mango. Can you pick it for me?" Tuan Zi took a deep breath and pointed at the apple on the treetop. He asked in a soft voice.
Although the mango was on the treetops, it was not hard to pick. Xia Ning, as long as he was careful, it was fine. Xia Ning Chong Tuan nodded and pulled up his sleeves to go forward.
"I'll go." Zhao Qingheng pulled Xia Ning back and prepared to go up.
"I'll do it. I can do it at this height." Xia Ning said anxiously.
After all these years, she had owed him a lot. Now that he only wanted a mango, she had to satisfy him.
"I want Mommy to pick it for me!" Tuan Zi opened his large watery eyes and spoke at the right time.
This time, Shao Qinghen had no choice but to compromise and nod. He fixed his gaze on Xia Ning, afraid that something unexpected would happen to her.
Although he hadn't climbed a tree for a long time, he was n' t unfamiliar with it. He Xia Ning climbed up in two or three times.
"Tuanzi, is that it?" Xia Ning pointed at the mango and turned to look at the ball under the tree.
"Mmm, Mommy, be careful." The group grinned happily and didn't forget to remind the Xia Ning on the tree.
Xia Ning nodded and stood on tiptoe to reach the mango on the treetop, but the little thing seemed to be deliberately trying to oppose her. She could only continue to stretch her body forward.
"Mommy!"
"What... "Ah!" Xia Ning heart skipped a beat. The consequences of this fall were probably not light.
However, what greeted her was not the hard ground, but a warm embrace...
"Are you alright?" Shao Qinghen frowned and asked softly. When she listened carefully, her voice trembled.
"I'm fine." Xia Ning sighed in relief and shook his head.
"Wow, Daddy is amazing." Tuan Zi ran over inappropriately and kept slapping his palm.
This way, Xia Ning had the illusion that all of this was designed by a team. Even Zhao Qingheng's plan to catch her was within her design. However, what did such a young child know? She was thinking too much.
"Boss!" ?" Zhao Qinghen's face turned ashen, and her gaze became a little sharp. He was too used to being a team player, which was why he was so capricious.
"I wasn't careful. Why are you yelling at the child?" Xia Ning was originally grateful to Zhao Qinghen, but when he said that he was a regiment, his gratitude disappeared.
Tuan Zi was speechless when he saw the two of them quarreling again. They were really tired from the previous performances.
"Mommy, I'm not eating anymore. I' m sorry." Tuan Zi lowered his head, tears in his eyes.
Xia Ning affectionately hugged Tuan Zi." It's because Mommy was careless, not because of you. Do n' t cry. Tuan Zi is the best."
If it wasn't for the lack of maternal love, the group would n' t have been as careful as they were in front of her.
"Mommy, if I don't eat, let's go play. I heard from my classmate that there's a Haunted House that's especially fun. Mommy, can you take me there?" Tuan Zi blinked his big eyes, filled with anticipation.
"Alright, you can go wherever you like." Xia Ning was a little scared, but for the sake of the team, she agreed.
"Daddy, hug him." The group moved closer to Shao Qinghen in fear. It looked like it was probing, but also timid.
Zhao Qinghen didn't say anything and immediately picked up the group.
Originally, they were holding Tuanzi's hand alone. After Tuanzi was lifted, the two of them naturally did not hold hands.
"Daddy, can you go hold Mommy's hand? "If Mommy doesn't know how to cross the road like a bunny, I' ll suffer."
Zhao Qinghen reached out to take Xia Ning hand, but was dodged. Looking at the hand that fell from the sky, Zhao Qinghen had an indescribable feeling and felt a little uncomfortable.
Until now, Xia Ning still couldn't accept him.
"Tuanzi, Mommy will cross the road." Xia Ning patted his head and explained softly.
The team was a little disappointed, but they didn't say anything.
There was no one at the Haunted House tonight, only the three of them.
Xia Ning didn't believe in ghosts, but she was really afraid. She usually did n' t dare to watch horror films. If it wasn't for the group, she would n' t have come to such a place even if she was beaten to death.
Xia Ning had just entered when the ghost cry inside sounded, Xia Ning subconsciously moved closer to Shao Qinghen's. His eyes were closed and his eyebrows were about to squeeze together.
The corners of Zhao Qinghen's mouth curled up and held onto the Xia Ning. Xia Ning was startled and wanted to pull his hand, but he held it too tightly and couldn't break free.
This journey was torturous for Xia Ning, but the team was having fun.
When he first entered, Xia Ning was still at a distance from Shao Qinghen. When he came out, he was already in his arms.
"Mommy, you're already out. Do n' t be afraid." Tuan Zi pulled Xia Ning sleeve.
Xia Ning opened his eyes and realized that he was still hanging on Zhao Qinghen's body. He jumped down hurriedly.
"Sorry."
"It's okay." Shao Qinghen shook his head. God knows how much he liked the feeling just now.
"Mom and Dad, what's in there? Let's go take a look too!" He didn't notice the change. He pulled Shao Qinghen and Xia Ning with one hand as he spoke. His calf jumped up and down towards the bustling place.
It was only then that he realized that it was a couple competition. The winner could obtain a two-meter-wide rabbit doll. It was extremely cute.
"Mom and Dad, I want that. Can you go and win it back for me?" The bunny pointed at the rabbit prize and turned to ask the Xia Ning who was still in an awkward situation.
Zhao Qingheng did not say anything. He looked at Xia Ning, meaning that he did not care what she said.
The team had done too much, so there was a slip-up. When she first started with the second Haunted House, she was already suspicious, but she wasn't sure. Now that she was sure, the team did n' t want that, but wanted to match up the two of them.
"Tuanzi, Mommy has this rabbit at home. Let's go to Mommy's place some other day, okay?" "It's getting late today. Shall we go back and rest?" There was no way they could get it, so she could not give him hope.
"But..." Tuan Zi pouted, his face filled with unhappiness.
"Let's go. We' re home." Zhao Qingheng waved his hand to interrupt the ball and bent down to carry it forward.
Shao Qinghen knew that there were some things he couldn't be impatient with.
Hearing Zhao Qinghen's words and seeing this scene, Xia Ning felt like they were a loving family.
"Mom and Dad, can you sleep with me? "I want you to sleep with me." Tuan Zi hugged Xia Ning and didn't want her to leave.
"I've already accompanied you by Mom and Dad at noon, so you have to sleep on your own tonight." Xia Ning wasn't stupid. Of course, he knew about the trick, but it was impossible.
"Alright, go to bed." Zhao Qinghen affectionately touched Tuanzi's head.
Although Tuan Zi was a little unhappy, he still obediently closed his eyes.
When a child was sleepy, he slept very quickly and soon fell asleep. Seeing that Tuanzi was asleep, Zhao Qinghen and Xia Ning went out together.
"You already guessed the intention of the team, right?" Xia Ning said uncertainly. 2
Zhao Qingheng didn't say anything, so he was taciturn.
"In the future, if you're doing something like this, do n' t submit to her. You know, it's impossible for us." Xia Ning spoke very seriously and forcefully. Before Shao Qinghen could reply, he strode forward.
Seeing that Xia Ning was about to leave, Zhao Qinghen subconsciously grabbed her hand, but it fell into the air. Like his heart, Zhao Qinghen looked in the direction where Xia Ning had left. He did not say anything, and his eyes were dark.
Xia Ning was lying on the bed. His eyelids were heavy, but he could not sleep. He closed his eyes and went over.
"Xia Ning, don't be silly. Do you want to get hurt again?" Xia Ning wanted to comfort him, but it didn't work. His mind was still filled with memories of the past and could n' t be erased.
Late at night, there was only a round white moon in the vast sky. The white moon was very beautiful and bright, but it was too lonely.
