Chapter 12: Chapter 12

When she sorted things out the previous day, Jian Yi found that there were a lot of paintbrushes in the drawer. From the memory, the original owner really liked painting. Although her painting skills were terrible, she liked it very much.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Jian Yi could interact with Su Enran and Su Anqi, through various exchanges, to enhance their relationship.

It was Jian Yi’s style to do stuff without much thought. After eating breakfast, Jian Yi mentioned it easily to Su Enran, “Enran, would you help Mom later?”

Jian Yi looked at him expectantly.

Su Enran pursed his lips.

However, he was quiet. Su Enran was still too hostile to her. If she acted rash, he might be disgusted with her. So she waited patiently.

Finally he nodded and said in a low voice, “Okay.”

“You are so good Su Enran. Okay, you have to help Mom to move out some brushes in the room later. Mom would draw with you today! Are you happy?” Jian Yi reached out and quickly wiped the oil from Su Enran’s face.

Jian Yi didn’t wait for Su Enran’s reply, she said, “Okay, Mom knows you are very happy. Let’s start moving them now.”

Su Anqi felt her mother’s enthusiasm. She stood up swaying, supported by the small wall, she walked in her mom’s direction and shouted excitedly with words that no one understood. Sometimes the words “Mom” popped up.

“Does Su Anqi also want to help Mom ?” Jian Yi picked up Su Anqi and kissed her face. Su Anqi jumped up happily and shouted randomly, “Yeah!

“Okay, you naughty child, you ca, help us.”

Jian Yi held Su Anqi with one hand, and stretched her right hand in Su Enran’s direction. Su Enran quietly looked at the pair of hands that were bigger than his for two seconds, and turned his head away.

Jian Yi wasn’t disappointed either. She smiled and walked upstairs. She had already expected that.

She placed Su Anqi on the ground and let her stand by the bed. Jian Yi opened the drawer, which was filled with local paint brushes of various colors. Most of which were unused. There were some crayons suitable for children. She didn’t know why the original owner bought it.

She let Su Enran carry a small basket and she got all the brushes out of the drawer.

“Is it heavy? Remember to tell Mom if it is heavy.”

In fact, they were just a few brushes, so they weren’t heavy, but she just wanted to communicate with Su Enran.

Sure enough, this easy-to-answer question, Su Enran answered. He held the small basket with both hands, and said in a milky voice, “Not heavy.”

Su Anqi was holding the edge of the bed with one hand, and the other pointed to Jian Yi. There was a transparent trace at the corner of her mouth. She shouted babbling. She wanted to go to them but was afraid of falling.

Su Enran looked at her, then looked back at Jian Yi. Jian Yi received the signal, and immediately called Su Anqi, “Come, baby Anqi came by yourself. Mom is waiting for you.”

While watching Su Anqi intently, Jian Yi’s hands and feet were ready, fearing that she would fall.

Su Anqi looked down at her little feet. She took a step along the edge of the bed, stepped back, and shouted, “Mom–“

Jian Yi stretched her hands, applauded, and cheered her, “Come here, don’t be afraid baby, mom is waiting for you here.”

Su Enran also looked at Su Anqi quietly, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.

Su Anqi looked at Jian Yi hesitantly. Licking her lips, she slowly released her little tender hand that held the edge of the bed. Her hands spread out to balance her body, and she took a step to move towards Jian Yi.

With her shaking body, she walked to Jian Yi’s side. She didn’t wait for Jian Yi to hug her. She immediately flew over and laughed with her mouth open.

Jian Yi picked her up and tossed her up gently, “My baby is so powerful that she could walk on her own. Enran, did you just see it? Your sister could walk.”

Su Enran, who was carrying the small basket in his arms, looked at Jian Yi and Su Anqi calmly, and nodded.

“Xiao Anqi, look, your brother is praising you!” Jian Yi held Su Anqi and with expectation, she turned to Su Enran. Su Anqi stared at Su Enran intently, and suddenly stretched her hand towards him, her small hands made a grabbing motion.

Jian Yi squatted down and said to Su Enran, “Your sister wants you to hug her.”

She took the small basket from Su Enran’s arm and kept it on the ground. Then she handed Su Anqi to Su Enran, “Will Brother Enran try to hug his sister?”

Su Anqi’s approach made Su Enran helpless. His eyes flickered as he was a little scared.

Jian Yi encouraged him, “It’s okay, just hug her lightly.”

She placed Su Anqi in his arms, with her squatting on the floor.

Su Anqi held out her hand toward Su Enran, and the two children embraced each other gently.

After Su Enran released his hand, he rubbed his fingers cautiously. His face was flushed and Su Anqi seemed to be a little shy, as she buried her head deeply in Jian Yi’s neck.

“Yo, why are you shy? That’s your brother.”

Jian Yi patted her back gently, feeling a little amused. Su Anqi knew that her mother was laughing at her, and she didn’t stick her head out.

Jian Yi held Su Anqi and took Su Enran to the hall. The big white paper was not found. Jian Yi simply found a two-meter-long white cloth and placed it on the ground, “Well, wait a moment. Let’s draw on it, what do you want to draw?”

Su Anqi who had a paintbrush in her hand, put it straight into her mouth. She was very calm and continued to lick the paintbrush.

Jian Yi saw that and she quickly grabbed the paintbrush in her hand, “Oh baby, this can’t be eaten, this is used to paint.”
