Chapter 851: Chapter 892: Immersing into the CharacterBack at home, Xu Yingying was still in a pretty good mood, though it was getting late. Pulling Little Yifei, who was still a bit excited, she said, "Alright, darling, thatâs enough fun for today. You have to get up early tomorrow to go pay New Year visits, and you need to sleep now."
Little Yifei was indeed obedient and immediately nodded, saying, "Oh, then I want to sleep with Mom and Dad."
Xu Yingying was a bit stunned by Little Yifeiâs words and stuttered, "Why do you want... to sleep with Mom and Dad?" As she spoke, she glanced at Li Yifei, only to find him trying to hold back a laugh, so she glared at him fiercely.
Li Yifei quickly suppressed his laughter, but seeing that Xu Yingying wasnât truly in a panic, simply a bit embarrassed, he thought that after sleeping in the same bed every day for some time, his wife Xu Yingying had somewhat gotten used to it.
At this point, Little Yifei said, "I just want to sleep with Mom and Dad. Iâve always been sleeping with my grandparents, and I donât like sleeping alone anymore."
Xu Yingying, of course, couldnât reject her daughterâs request and said, "Alright then, weâll all sleep together tonight."
"Oh yeah, thatâs awesome, tonight I want Daddy to tell me stories."
Li Yifei said with a smile, "Sure, itâs been several days since Daddy has told stories to Little Yifei. Iâll tell you a few more tonight."
Xu Shanshan yawned and said, "Ah, you three enjoy your happy family time, Iâll sleep by myself." Saying so, she winked secretly at Li Yifei and then went back to her room.
Li Yifei knew from Xu Shanshanâs look that it was her idea for Little Yifei to make the request. Otherwise, Xu Yingying, with her thin skin, would definitely have him sleeping on the sofa tonight, and it seemed the girl was always thoughtful towards him.
After washing up, the family of three returned to the bedroom, where Little Yifei, in her pajamas, jumped straight onto the bed, waving her little hands and urging, "Mom and Dad, hurry up and get into bed."
Unlike Xu Yingyingâs grandparentsâ house, there was only one blanket on this bed, and it was a very large one. Before, when only Li Yifei and Xu Yingying shared it, there was more than enough space. Now with Little Yifei joining them, it was still not a problem.
Li Yifei promptly got into the spirit, hopped into bed, and lay on the inside, saying, "Coming, coming."
Xu Yingying hesitated for a moment, then also climbed into bed. Although she technically shared a bed with Li Yifei, they had Little Yifei between them now. Plus, Li Yifei hadnât taken liberties with her these past few days, never forcing her, which made her trust him even more.
Unknowingly, she had gradually slipped into the role of a wife, it was just that sometimes she was reluctant to admit it.
The three of them lay in bed, and Li Yifei picked up a storybook, beginning to tell Little Yifei a story. She listened intently, occasionally asking questions, and Li Yifei patiently explained.
Watching the father and daughter, Xu Yingying suddenly felt a surge of sweetness and warmth. She had never before considered what married life was like, and with a husband appearing so suddenly, she had been quite nervous. But now, she realized that this might just be what a true married life was, what a true family life was.
After all, Little Yifei was young and, lying there listening to the story, couldnât keep her limbs still, flinging her arms onto Li Yifei and then draping her legs onto Xu Yingying.
This became a bond between Li Yifei and Xu Yingying, bringing much joy to the two of them.
Li Yifei didnât know how many stories he had told before Little Yifei finally fell asleep. Turning his head, he discovered that Xu Yingying had also fallen asleep. Putting both big and little to sleep with his stories felt like an achievement.
Li Yifei straightened the blanket to ensure Xu Yingying and their daughter were well covered, but didnât lie down immediately. Looking at his daughterâs innocent face and Xu Yingyingâs beautiful features, he felt very happy.
He rarely had the chance to watch Xu Yingying like this. Usually, they would lie down at night and be intimate; if not, he wouldnât be in Xu Yingyingâs room at all. Only at this moment could he quietly observe her sleeping.
After watching for about half a minute, Li Yifei lay down and turned off the bedside lamp to sleep.
The next morning, Xu Yingying got up very early, helping Little Yifei get dressed and prepare Li Yifeiâs clothes, constantly saying, "Darling, make sure to be good when we get there, and listen to Dad and Xinâerâs mom. Yifei, keep an eye on Yifei. Itâs pretty cold, so donât let her run around outside. If she sweats and then gets cold, itâs easy to catch a cold. Also, the ground is hard at this time, with ice too, so falling would be troublesome."
Xu Shanshan, who had wanted to sleep in, was awakened by Xu Yingyingâs incessant instructions and stood at the door, shaking her head and saying, "You know, big sis, Iâve realized you truly are our momâs daughter. That nagging is just like our mom."
Xu Yingying glared and retorted, "When have I nagged? Itâs just that Iâm worried, isnât it?"
"Your brother-in-law is not a child, he canât neglect his own daughter. Itâs just you who like to worry too much."
Xu Yingying snorted, "Men are careless, arenât they?"
"Come on, youâre only capable at work, where are you meticulous in real life? Iâve never noticed you being detail-oriented at home. Now you pick the right time to talk nicely." Xu Shanshan didnât give her sister any face and laid bare her true colors.
Listening to the two sisters bickering, Li Yifei couldnât help but laugh, but as soon as he caught Xu Yingyingâs glaring eyes, he quickly stopped laughing and said, "Donât worry, itâs not the first time. I will definitely take good care of my daughter."
Xu Yingying knew she had said too much, but she still couldnât help saying, "Donât drink too much, itâs not safe to drive."
Li Yifei narrowed his eyes and said, "You care about me so much, huh?"
Xu Yingyingâs face turned red, and she retorted, "What do I care about you for? I care about my daughter. Just go on."
Little Yifei was particularly happy today. Other than when at Ning Xinâerâs place, she had no idea about New Yearâs money. Now that she had to greet people for the New Year, there were so many who gave her money. It was really fun. Now that she was going to Li Yifeiâs relativeâs house, surely there would be more New Yearâs money, and so she started chattering non-stop about it, even asking about the size of the red envelopes she could expect.
Ning Xinâer spoke up patiently from behind, "Daughter, when weâre at daddyâs relativesâ house, we canât complain about the size of the red envelopes they give. No matter the amount, itâs the thought that counts from your elders, remember that?"
Ning Xinâer knew that Li Yifeiâs relatives were only average in terms of wealth, providing New Yearâs money of about one or two hundred for the kids. Compared to the thousands they gave Little Yifei all at once, she truly feared Little Yifei might feel it was too little and embarrass the adults with her reaction.
"But small red envelopes really arenât much fun," Little Yifei blinked her big eyes, somewhat unwilling.
"Daughter, this is different, daddyâs relatives have many children, and each adult has to give New Yearâs money to all of them, which means the adults have to spend a lot of money. But in our case, everyone has only Little Yifei, so they can all give red envelopes just to you, which naturally means youâll get more."
"I see, as long as I get a red envelope, thatâs okay. I wonât complain about it being too little."
Ning Xinâer praised her again and again, saying, "Such a good child."
Li Yifei, while driving, laughed and said, "You have quite a way with teaching kids, donât you?"
Proudly, Ning Xinâer responded, "Of course, I am her mom after all. I certainly must educate her properly." Then she looked at Li Yifei with burning eyes, thinking about how she would get to sleep with Li Yifei tonight, and her heart flared with excitement. seaĘá´h thŃ NovŃlĆire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Li Yifei didnât realize Ning Xinâer was entertaining such thoughts. Now was a good time to inquire about everyoneâs well-being since Xu Yingying was usually around, preventing him from asking.
Ning Xinâer said, "Everything is alright. Everyone just hopes Yingying will remember soon, that sheâll let you move back into this home once again."
Li Yifei sighed and said, "This matter is not easy at all. In recent days, Shanshan and I have told her a lot about the past, but she remembers most of it, except for things related to me and things connected to me, sheâll forget them, and forget thoroughly at that. I really donât know how she manages to do it."
Ning Xinâer furrowed her brow and said, "Thatâs really strange. It makes me wonder if Yingying is pretending?"
Li Yifei had also doubted this, but with his observation skills, he was confident he would have noticed if Xu Yingying were feigning it. However, judging by Xu Yingyingâs behavior, she truly had forgotten. Perhaps it was caused by Su Mengxinâs grandfatherâs arrival, which made her decide to cut ties with Li Yifei so he could be with Su Mengxin.
Moreover, this mindset was incredibly strong, first causing Xu Yingying to remain comatose and unwilling to wake up, and second, to forget all these things upon awakening.
But fortunately, Xu Yingying didnât force upon herself a false memory or start to see Li Yifei as the most detestable person, driving him away. That really would have been a problem for Li Yifei and could be considered a blessing in misfortune.
After turning a corner, Li Yifei finally said, "No, Yingying is definitely not pretending. She truly lost her memory. Donât worry, even if Yingying canât completely remember, everything is moving in a positive direction. I believe that someday we will return to the life we used to have."
Ning Xinâer pouted, saying, "I donât want that old life back. Back then, Yiyi and everyone else were happy, and you simply ignored me. I was the one who suffered the most."
Li Yifei had completely let go of his past grudges against Ning Xinâer and with guilt, he said, "Right, letâs start a brand-new life then, one where our entire family is happy."
