In the dessert shop, the two kids were engaged in a conversation with Ouyang.
Actually, Erbao was already restraining herself. Although she loved desserts, she only took little bites.
In the past, she would have already gobbled that dessert down and sneaking a few bites on Dabaoâs dessert.
âYou visited your Great-Grandpa today, right?â
Ouyang Qing was sitting beside them. There are two kids now. If I marry Nan Chen in the future, Iâll have another kid, making it three in total. Thatâs going to give me a headache.
Wait a moment. It doesnât matter anyway.
Since the Nan family is so rich, I donât even need to take care of these children myself.
Even if there are ten kids in the house, it wonât matter. Anyway, the servants can specially take care of them. I wonât have to tire myself out.
As Ouyang Qing fantasized about the future, she was a little absent-minded.
Subsequently, she completely forgot her earlier conversation with the kids.
âWhat are you thinking about?â Even Erbao noticed her daydreaming.
Ouyang Qing chuckled in embarrassment. âIâm thinking about how both of you are such smart and sensible children.â
She knew that children liked to be praised. Compliments would make them very happy.
Hence, she kept praising the two children since the effects seemed quite well to her too.
âOf course, we are! Dabao is a genius, so am I.â Erbao admitted proudly.
âThen, do you like me?â
Dabao scoffed silently. We called you a pretty lady out of courtesy. Do you really think that you are actually deserving of it?
However, he did not show it openly. âOf course I like you. We never eat with anyone we dislike.â
âReally? Then what do you like about me?â Ouyang Qing looked very happy.
âI like you because you are pretty,â said Erbao sweetly.
This made Ouyang Qing even happier. âReally? Am I really pretty?â
âYeah, like a goddess.â Erbao was highly skilled at flattering others too.
âHaha! Am I prettier or is your Mommy prettier?â
Ouyang Qing was so flattered that she forgot her place. She was actually comparing herself to Ning Ran in front of the children.
If she had a sliver of rationality left, she would not have asked such a foolish question.
Dabao and Erbaoâs expressions changed.
Has she no shame? How dare she compares herself to Mommy! Are you getting so full of yourself just because we called you a pretty lady?
When Ouyang Qing noticed that the kidsâ expression did not look right, she realized her mistake.
She almost forgot that she was not dealing with ordinary children.
âHahaha! Iâm just joking with you. Of course, your Mommy is prettier! Do you know that your Mommy is my favorite actress? Not only is she beautiful, but her acting skills are simply amazing. Sheâll definitely become a top star in the future!â
Ouyang Qing hurriedly tried to salvage her mistake.
âMommyâs already a top star!â corrected Erbao.
Ouyang Qing was slightly unhappy with that remark. Ning Ran is so shameless. She only filmed a show that has not even been screen yet, but sheâs already claiming to be a top star?
However, as she did not dare to make the children despise her, so she quickly agreed, âYeah! Your Mommy is already a top star. I like her a lot!â
Dabao and Erbao could not discern whether she was speaking the truth.
As Ouyang Qing had a naturally innocent face, she always spoke with utmost sincerity, as if she were telling the truth.
Even adults would find it hard to tell if Ouyang Qingâs expression was genuine, let alone children.
âIs that so? Do you really like Mommy?â asked Erbao.
âOf course!â Ouyang Qingâs face was full of innocence as she widened her large eyes.
âThen, do you like Mommy or Daddy more?â asked Erbao.
Ouyang Qing was shocked.
Her heart even skipped a beat. Did the children discover my intentions?
That canât be the case. I can deal with other adults so easily. How is it possible for me to make a mistake in front of these kids?
âWhat are you talking about, darling? Iâm good friends with Chen. Weâve known each other since we were kids, so weâre quite close. However, our relationship is not like what you imagine,â clarified Ouyang with a smile.
Erbao and Dabao exchanged a glance. They were equally repulsed by how she called Nan Chen âChenâ.
However, they had to endure it. After all, they had not finished their plan yet.
âDabao, it looks like weâre going to be disappointed.â Erbao lamented to Dabao.
âYeah.â Dabao nodded too.
âWhat do you mean? Why are you disappointed?â asked Ouyang Qing.
âWe thought that you and Daddy will be together. If thatâs the case, you can take care of us and Daddy in the future,â revealed Erbao.
Ouyang Qing thought there was something wrong with her ears. âWhat did you just say?â
Hence, Erbao repeated her words.
âHahaha! Darling, are you trying to test me?â Ouyang Qing burst out laughing.
âOf course not! Iâm telling the truth. I hope that you can get together with Daddy and take care of us too,â said Erbao seriously.
Ouyang Qing was confused. âWhy? What about your Mommy?â
âOf course we still want our Mommy. However, she doesnât have a good relationship with Daddy.
Hence, we hope that Mommy and Daddy can find a partner each for themselves, and lead separate lives. Dabao and I will have two families, where thereâll be more people doting on us.â
Erbao said it very clearly while expressing her thoughts in an articulate manner.
This was her strength. It was also where her chemistry with Dabao could be seen most clearly.
As long as Dabao explained his ideas to her, she could express them very clearly with complete accuracy.
She could even repeat it a few times without making a single mistake.
It was not an exaggeration when others called her a genius. She had the capabilities to back that up.
However, Ouyang Qing was still in disbelief. She kept thinking that this was absurd.
Why would young kids like them wish to get a wife for her Daddy?
This isnât logical.
âAre you joking with me?â
âOf course not. Weâre telling the truth!â Erbao was extremely serious.
âYou think that I can be together with your Daddy?â Ouyang Qing was feeling a bit tempted now.
âOf course, you look good standing next to Daddy. We really think that both of you will be happy together,â affirmed Erbao as she nodded.
Although Ouyang Qing did not know if she was telling the truth, she still felt overjoyed.
âBut your Daddy might not necessarily agree,â said Ouyang Qing with a smile.
âThen, youâll have to fight for it. We believe that you can become Daddyâs partner. In the future, weâll be a family. Youâll definitely take good care of us, right?â asked Erbao as she flashed Ouyang Qing a sweet smile.
Looking at Erbaoâs charming smile, Ouyang Qing believed her.
âHow should I fight for it? Your Daddy doesnât seem to like me. Heâs so cold to me.â
This was Ouyang Qingâs sincere thoughts. Although she had been trying her best, she kept feeling like there was a vast distance between her and Nan Chen.
It was a chasm that could not be seen. Regardless of how much she tried, she could never narrow that gap between them.
