Chapter 71

Chapter 71 - Chi Cheng Found a Magazine (2)       

While Chi Yu was feeling helpless, Chi Ying came home.

She heard Chi Cheng's crying as soon as she walked inside of the door. She felt a sinking feeling in her stomach.

She changed into her slippers as quickly as she could and ran over to Chi Cheng. "What's the matter, Xiao ChengCheng?"

Seeing Chi Ying, Chi Cheng felt like he has someone backing him up now. Dragging Chi Ying's hand, he started walking toward his own room. "Mom! Don't talk to Uncle!"

Chi Ying turned and looked over at Chi Yu before she followed Chi Cheng into his room. Chi Cheng, his shoulder rising up and down and sniffling, he showed her the cover that had been torn into halves.

Chi Cheng might be young, but he was also a smart and sensitive child.

"I'm sorry. Mommy. Don't be sad. If I didn't take your book out, it won't be torn into halves." Seeing the impression on Chi Ying, he pouted and started crying again.

"Silly Chi Cheng, why would Mommy be sad? It's just an old magazine. Your happiness is much more important. Alright, stop crying now." Chi Ying pulled Chi Cheng's hands down from his eyes and his soft and pink palms were covered in dust. They got onto his hands when he was rubbed the dust off the magazine cover earlier.

"How come your hands are so dirty?" Chi Ying patted the dusts from his palms and said, "Alright now. Xiao ChengCheng be a good boy. Let's go wash our hands then make up with your uncle, what do you say?"

"No!" Chi Cheng looked at Chi Ying through teary eyes and sniffling, said, "He was being a bully. He never liked me. He is mean to me."

"Alright then, let's have Uncle apologize to you."

Chi Ying walked out holding Chi Ying in her hand, sighed gently, and said, "Big Brother, why are you picking on a little child?"

Chi Yu, his face still darkened, said, "I was worried that was reading some inappropriate books and got ideas. Say, what was that magazine all about?"

Chi Ying smiled lightly but did not divulge anything. "It's nothing."

Chi Cheng, too, pouted and said, "We are not telling you."

Chi Yu looked a little bit sad and said, "I came all the way back home to spend the new year with you and nobody welcomed me home."

"You apologize to Chi Cheng first, then we will welcome you together."

Resigned, Chi Yu said, "Alrighty, Xiao Cheng-zi, I won't bully you again in the future and I won't take away your snacks and milk. I promise."

Contented, Chi Cheng giggled.

The filming of "The Green Sun" started at the end of March. The filming location was outside of the city and Chi Ying would be gone from home for a little while.

It was a weekend the day Chi Ying left and Chi Cheng, for the sake of seeing his mother off, got up early in the morning.

Chi Ying had transmigrated a year ago and, comparing to a year ago, Chi Cheng had grown a lot. Now he could reach the sink when standing on top of a little stool.

Chi Cheng insisted that his mother not help him with brushing her teeth as the host sister on the kids' channel had said that good little kids brush their own teeth.

The flexibility of a little kid's wrist was limited and couldn't get to all the plague. That's why Chi Ying would inspect his teeth after he was done and rebrush his teeth.

"Ahhh~~" Chi Cheng opened his mouth wide just like usual. His voice was pure and milky and his two rows of teeth were the colors of white jade.

After her inspection, Chi Ying praised him, "Getting cleaner and cleaner every day. Good boy!"

Chi Cheng happily put his arms around Chi Ying's soft and warm waist and whined. "Nobody will be helping me brush my teeth from now on."

Chi Ying felt a little itching feeling and all she wanted to do was to press his little head into her chest.

"I'll be home before you know it. Grandma will help you brush your teeth in the next few days. I will video chat with you everyday and you will be able to see Mommy on Grandma's cellphone."

Chi Cheng gave her a soft and milky "okay" and hugged Chi Ying for a long time before he let go of her.
