Su Yan, who was sitting across witnessed the entire scene . He shook his head in amusement .
But gradually, his smile became oddly twisted while his expression turned grave and solemn .
“Daddy!”
Su Yue and Jiao Chen returned to the table, and Su Xiaojiao squealed in delight . She dove right into Jiao Chen’s embrace and hugged him tightly and showered him kisses .
She was like an octopus clinging onto him .
Jiaojiao carried Xiaojiao and hugged her tightly . He loved this little girl so much .
His eyes were flooded with affection as he watched Xiaojiao’s face . “Xiaojiao, did you miss me?”
Su Xiaojiao nodded her head fervently .
As though she was trying to convey how much she missed him .
Jiao Chen gave the girl a peck on her cheek . “I miss you so much . ”
“Did you miss Mommy?” Su Xiaojiao blinked her innocent-looking eyes as she gazed at Jiao Chen .
Jiao Chen briefly pondered before replying in a hushed voice, “A little . But I miss Xiaojiao more . ”
“Good Daddy . ” Su Xiaojiao kissed him once more .
His answer satisfied her .
Su Yue interrupted the father and daughter pair who only had eyes for each other at the moment . “Do you still want to eat?”
“Mommy is jealous . ” Su Xiaojiao covered her mouth and sniggered .
Jiao Chen was rather surprised .
He wasn’t surprised that Xiaojiao had assumed Su Yue was jealous, but the words she used .
Su Yue knew why Jiao Chen was surprised . “I bet you didn’t know how mature and smart children are these days . They can even portray TV characters . ”
Jiao Chen chuckled in response .
Su Yan and Jiao Chen didn’t talk much . Hence, throughout the dinner, Su Yue and Xiaojiao were the only ones talking .
After dinner, Su Yue and Jiao Chen left with Xiaojiao first .
Jiao Chen placed Xiaojiao on his shoulders, and the girl was giggling .
Su Yan was watching this happy family through the glass windows . A plethora of emotions were whirling in his eyes as he became somber .
Xiaojiao sat on Jiao Chen’s shoulders for a while before Jiao Chen swung her around in circles .
The girl was laughing so happily .
“Let’s go . ” Su Yan stepped out of the entrance and asked, “Are you all going home?”
“We’ll take a walk?” Su Yue glanced at Jiao Chen .
Jiao Chen agreed with a nod .
She turned to Su Yan . “Brother, do you want to join us?”
Su Yan declined . “I have work to do . ”
Su Yue frowned . “You’re always busy with work . When can you get me a sister-in-law?”
“Don’t worry about trivial stuff like this . ” Su Yan prodded Su Yue’s head and said, “Where do you want to go? I’ll send you . ”
Su Yue replied, “We’ll take a cab later . I want to take a stroll first . ”
She stretched her hands to carry Xiaojiao .
“Sure . ” Su Yan nodded . “Then go back and rest early later . ”
He took out his car keys as he strode towards his car .
When he walked past Jiao Chen, he cast him a long thoughtful glance .
Su Yue pursed her lips as she stared at her brother . “He will be 28 soon, and yet he doesn’t even have a girlfriend . ”
Jiao Chen smiled when he heard her .
“It’s getting late, let’s go back . ”
After taking a stroll with Xiaojiao, Su Xiaojiao glanced at her watch .
