Shin-hye did not know if she wanted to laugh or cry. She stared at Rosé helplessly. "My child, Chu and you are husband and wife. When he eats, you eat as well, right? Besides, your kitchen lady often prepares so many supplements for you and you can't finish them all. If not for Chu to have some, wouldn't it all go to waste?"
Rosé was rendered speechless. She did not say anything further. She grumbled to herself, 'Since they know I couldn't eat so much, they should not have prepared so many supplements for me in the beginning.'
Jisoo was obviously a glutton. Most of the time, he did not reveal his true color for the sake of maintaining his smart and handsome image. Now, he finally had a good reason to eat as much as he could openly. How could he let go of this opportunity?!
"By the way, where are your father and mother? Why don't I see them? Haven't they arrived yet?" Shin-hye could not help but ask after she surveyed around the surroundings but still failed to catch sight of her own elder sister and brother-in-law.
The person who answered her was Jisoo instead of Rosé. "My father-in-law and mother-in-law went to pick up my uncle and Wanting. They would arrive in a moment."
"Wanting is coming as well? That kid must have bugged her parents so that they would take her along to visit the baby." As Tae-joon recalled the little demon from his family, a hint of helplessness unwittingly showed up on his cold face. However, if one were to notice carefully, the trace of a smile appeared in his eyes as well.
So did Shin-hye. She shook her head in resignation. She took a box from Tae-joon's hand and passed it over to Jisoo. She said, "Here's a small gift for Dudu."
Jisoo received the box from Shin-hye without hesitation. He then passed it over to a servant beside him. He said with a smile, "Aunt, Uncle, I thank you on behalf of Dudu."
Shin-hye's interruption had reminded Jennie about her own gift which she had brought for the baby, except that the gift was not in her hands now. It was with Leo.
Jennie bent down and took an exquisitely wrapped small box from Leo's small suit pocket. She handed it over to Rosé and said, "This is a token of my appreciation. I hope your baby grows up healthily."
Rosé never expected Jennie had prepared a gift for her son, so she was overjoyed. As soon as Jisoo received Jennie's gift, she wanted to unwrap it.
"Could I unwrap it now?"
Jennie was stunned. She smiled faintly, "Since the gift is for the baby and you are the baby's mother, you naturally could unwrap the gift."
After Rosé got the permission, she could not wait and had Jisoo open the box and reveal the contents.
The gift inside the box was chosen by Min-a. It was a longevity pendant made of pure silver.
The plain silver dazzled under the reflection of the light. It was very beautiful. Even Dudu, who was holding the milk bottle and drinking happily, was attracted to it.
Dudu let go of the milk bottle which he had been holding onto tightly just now. He wanted to reach out for the pendant. At the same time, he was babbling some unintelligible monosyllables in his mouth.
Rosé smiled. She stared at the box in Jisoo's hand softly and said gently, "Look, Dudu likes Jennie's gift very much."
The people at the side smiled when they saw this. Jennie was relieved to see that the baby was so supportive. She smiled faintly and replied to her, "Anything, as long as the child likes it."
The child failed to grab what he wanted after some time. He pouted his lips. Tears started to well up in his eyes and he looked like he was about to burst into tears.
Rosé cast a glance at her restless son before he gave another look at Leo, who was standing obediently at the side. Suddenly, she stretched out her hand and took the longevity pendant inside the box. She passed it over to Leo and said with a smile, "I'm having Dudu in my arms, so it's inconvenient for me to put this on for him. Leo, could you please help me to put this on his neck?"
Leo hesitated for a while. He then turned his head around and cast a questioning glance at Jennie. After Jennie nodded at him, he carefully took over the necklace of the longevity pendant and slowly put it around the baby's neck.
The baby seemed like he was not used to the sudden addition of something around his neck. He struggled. Leo immediately helped to sort out the necklace so that it only hung on the collar of his clothes instead of touching his skin.
Only then did the baby slightly settle down. He giggled at Leo.
When Shin-hye saw this, she moved her gaze. She seized the opportunity and went up to him. She said with a smile, "Leo, Dudu likes you. He doesn't smile at me once even after I've been teasing him for a long time. Look, how happy he is when you've only put on the necklace for him."
Upon hearing Shin-hye's words, Leo could not help but feel slightly embarrassed. His face slightly reddened. His eyes sparkled as he stared at the baby who continued drinking from his milk bottle. Leo hesitated for some time before he leaned over to the baby all of a sudden and gave a peck on his cheek.
Grandma had told him that kissing someone was a gesture of fondness for that person. The baby liked Leo, and Leo liked him too!
Shin-hye saw everything. A ray of hope ignited in her heart. She asked him tentatively, "Dudu likes you, Leo. Do you like Dudu too?"
Leo pondered over it for a brief moment before he understood that Shin-hye was referring to the baby as Dudu. He nodded his head without hesitation. He said shyly, "Yes, I like him."
Upon heating Leo's answer in a child's voice, the adults at the side unwittingly smiled.
"Leo, do you want a younger brother who is as cute as Dudu?"
"A younger brother who is as cute as Dudu?" Leo repeated her words in puzzlement. He did not quite understand Shin-hye's words.
Meanwhile, Jennie, who was standing at the side, understood the underlying meaning of Shin-hye's words. Her expression changed slightly. Even Rosé and her husband could not help but were struck dumb upon hearing Shin-hye's words. They locked gazes with each other in surprise.
However, Shin-hye did not pay much attention to the people's reactions around her. She only wanted to target Leo as the key to solve the problem.
Jennie was so dotted on Leo. If Leo could agree with this and hoped to have a younger brother or sister as well, Jennie certainly would not refuse Lisa.
"Not necessarily a younger brother, it could be a younger sister too. Leo, do you want to have your own younger brother or sister?"
"A younger brother or sister of my own?" Leo's eyes lit up. He somehow had a guess in his heart.
"Yes. Look, your parents are still very young. You are their only child. Don't you find yourself very lonely? If your mother adds another younger brother or sister for you, your family would become more lively and merrier. Someone who could play with you every day, how nice would it be, right?" Shin-hye looked at Leo with a smile on her face as she stated various benefits of having a younger brother or sister.
She thought that Leo would be very happy and sided with her. With that, he could help her to persuade Jennie to give birth to another child. little did she know that right after she spoke, Leo's face immediately turned white.. He waved his hand and screamed, "I don't want! I don't want! I don't want a younger brother or sister! I don't want any of them!"
