Tao Rui retracted his gaze without any trace, first opened the rear door for Xiao Yichen, and then got into the driver's seat.

An An clings to Xiao Yichen like a baby kangaroo, she almost uses super glue to stick him together.Xiao Yichen also seemed very patient. Even if An An never said a word, he could still complete the conversation as if talking to himself. If he talked too much, there would be something that could arouse An An's interest. As long as An An gave Xiao Yichen a little reaction, Xiao Yichen would feel extremely excited and satisfied.

Tao Rui observed Xiao Yichen through the inner rearview mirror, and couldn't hide the surprise in his heart.

The Xiao Yichen he was familiar with before didn't have enough patience, let alone play with a silent child like this now. Xiao Yichen's every move today is completely beyond Tao Rui's expectation. The Xiao Yichen in front of him is much different from before. It's like a different person.

He is gentle, kind, and extremely patient. All the previous flamboyance and sharp thorns have been polished by time, and he has become no longer willful and reckless.

Tao Rui stared at Xiao Yichen seriously, and for a moment he even felt that he didn't know the person in front of him.

But Xiao Yichen, who has been polished at this moment, exudes another unique temperament, like the wine that has been tempered for four years in the wine cellar after the altar is sealed, the appearance is still the same, but the aroma of the wine is becoming more and more intoxicating.

Xiao Yichen lowered his head and seriously played games with An An. He put a coin into his palm, then hid his hand behind his back, and then took it out to coax An An and said softly, "An An guesses whether Dad put the coin in the left hand or the right hand?" ?”

An An blinked, looking at Xiao Yichen's clenched hands into fists and remained silent.

Xiao Yichen said again: "Don't An An want to play games with Dad?"

An An arched her head in Xiao Yichen's arms, her small hands clenched Xiao Yichen's clothes into fists.

Xiao Yichen didn't want to give up, and continued to coax the child persistently: "Hmph, it's fine if An An doesn't play with Dad, Dad plays by himself, Dad guesses the coin and hides it in his left hand."

An An arched her furry head from Xiao Yichen's arms, stared at Xiao Yichen's hands with her beautiful eyes, then tentatively and cautiously stretched out a finger, and nodded Xiao Yichen's left hand with a round, warm finger.

Xiao Yichen deliberately exaggerated and said: "Okay, An An has learned badly, and knows how to trick Dad into giving the correct answer, little rascal."

Xiao Yichen opened his fist slowly as he spoke, and after noticing An An's gaze, Xiao Yichen deliberately slowed down his movements. In the end, An An was aroused by Xiao Yichen as he wished, and opened Xiao Yichen's finger with his chubby short fingers, and took the fist The slightly hot coin was tightly clutched in the palm of his hand.

Xiao Yichen continued to make An An happy, pretending to tickle him, and groped An An with his hands, "Little rascal, you dare to play with Dad, don't you? Let's see how Dad punishes you? Hey, don't hide, you Where are you going to hide..."

An An was amused by Xiao Yichen, and hid behind Xiao Yichen while laughing, stuffing her head into the gap between Xiao Yichen and the seat behind him.

Xiao Yichen moved forward quickly, afraid that An An's head would be caught, he smiled and teased An An and said, "Where is my son? Why is my son missing! I touched my legs and my stomach, where is An An's head?"

Tao Rui originally wanted to take revenge on the society irritably, but now the endless anger in his heart was gradually washed away by the laughter. He didn't join in, but he could clearly feel the cheerful atmosphere at this moment.

Hearing Xiao Yichen's extremely stupid and cute words to make An An happy on purpose, Tao Rui couldn't hold back his laughter.

After he laughed out loud, he quickly sat upright, and continued to put on a serious look with a straight face. Unfortunately, Xiao Yichen had already heard the laughter, and after a short period of hesitation, he became embarrassed and flustered.Embarrassed at the fact that he was talking nonsense in front of Tao Rui, and also annoyed at the fact that he only cared about playing with An An and completely forgot that Tao Rui still had a heart for An An.

Seeing that Xiao Yichen stopped playing tricks on him, An An poked his head out cautiously.He sat next to Xiao Yichen for a while, then grabbed Xiao Yichen's arm and crawled into his arms, the movement was quick and neat, obviously he had done it before.

Tao Rui took Xiao Yichen and An An to a well-known local coconut chicken hot pot restaurant. I heard that they have served the delicious food on the tip of their tongues. There is an endless stream of tourists who come here admiringly. Last meal.

Tao Rui knew most of the restaurant owners in this area, and he had called the owner before leaving, asking him to leave a separate room for him. Even after saying hello like this, they still had to wait for several minutes when they arrived. go in.

The main dish of this hot pot restaurant is coconut chicken. Of course, you can also choose other pot bases. The price of the side dishes is also very ordinary, and most people can often afford it. It is precisely because of this that the business here is so hot that it is hard to find.

After Xiao Yichen hugged An An and got out of the car, An An hid in Xiao Yichen's arms, with half of her eyes exposed, she became nervous and agitated when she saw the countless crowds around her, and she kept pushing into Xiao Yichen's arms.

Xiao Yichen was aware of An An's situation, so he protected An An and urged Tao Rui to enter the box in a low voice. After entering the box and closing the door tightly to isolate the chaotic and noisy sounds outside, An An finally calmed down under Xiao Yichen's comfort.

Xiao Yichen and Tao Rui hadn't spoken for a long time, and now that An An was present, they didn't know what to talk about.

It wasn't until the waiter came over to ask what kind of pot bottom they wanted, that Tao Rui raised his head to look at Xiao Yichen, and asked as if asking, "Do you want any other pot bottom besides coconut chicken?"

Xiao Yichen shook his head.

Tao Rui said, "I want a coconut chicken pot bottom."

The waiter delivered the menu and said he would come back to collect it.

Tao Rui handed one of them to Xiao Yichen, "You choose you and..." He paused, and then continued, "You and An An have enough to eat."

Xiao Yichen took the menu, first carefully selected what An An liked to eat, and then continued to check what he wanted to eat.

Tao Rui selected the menu very quickly, and when Xiao Yichen put the menu over, Tao Rui had already taken out his phone and started playing games.

Tao Rui plays mobile games purely to pass the time, and he is also very uncertain. If one game is not fun, he will immediately change to another game.

The last time Xiao Yichen saw Tao Rui was playing 2048, he didn't know what he was playing this time.

The box in the restaurant was brightly lit, Xiao Yichen didn't have the nerve to continue teasing An An, An An would feel bored sitting on the stool, suddenly climbed off the stool completely out of Xiao Yichen's expectation, and walked towards Tao Rui timidly and curiously.

Xiao Yichen originally wanted to ask An An what he was going to do, but when he saw An An's actions, he couldn't help choking all the words in his throat. Xiao Yichen stared at An An's back in disbelief, and really couldn't figure out why An An would be willing to approach Tao Rui on his own initiative.

This was the first time Xiao Yichen saw An An approaching others actively, and he was still a complete stranger to An An.

Xiao Yichen couldn't help but wonder, could this be the so-called invisible power of blood?

An An walked slowly and cautiously, like a rabbit that might be frightened all the time.He supported the dining table with his chubby little hands, and slowly moved towards Tao Rui with his toes touching his heels.

Then An An suddenly stopped two meters away from Tao Rui.He leaned on the table and stood on tiptoe with difficulty, looking timidly at the screen of the mobile phone where Tao Rui was playing the game.

Naturally, nothing could be seen clearly from such a long distance.In fact, Tao Rui had noticed An An's actions a long time ago, but he was not sure what An An was going to do, so he continued to play the game with his head down in a daze, and at the same time, he was always paying attention to An An's movements.

Seeing An An standing two meters away and no longer approaching, Tao Rui struggled for a while, but couldn't resist An An's cuteness like a little white rabbit, so he raised his head and looked at An An, wanting to invite An An over, " you……"

Tao Rui tried his best to keep his tone as light as possible, lest he frighten this timid-looking child.

Unexpectedly, just after he uttered a word, An An quickly turned around and ran towards Xiao Yichen as if he had been greatly frightened. On the way, he almost fell because he was too nervous.

Tao Rui was startled, and his body instinctively reacted to pick it up. Fortunately, Xiao Yichen got closer and helped An An in time, and then An An took advantage of the opportunity and slammed into Xiao Yichen's arms like a cannonball.

Tao Rui's face was filled with disbelief. He thought he had adjusted his attitude to be very gentle and friendly, and he would definitely not scare the child like this.

Xiao Yichen picked up An An, and seeing Tao Rui's skepticism about life, he explained embarrassingly: "An An is not used to it, he is afraid of strangers and doesn't like to talk very much, you are the first person he is willing to approach actively besides me. "

Tao Rui nodded half-understood, puzzled and said, "You're not even close to your family?"

Xiao Yichen smiled helplessly, "Well, An An... is a bit special, so I was very surprised to see him take the initiative to approach you just now."

Tao Rui was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The relationship between Xiao Yichen and An An made Tao Rui still feel a little caring, but a well-behaved and loving child like An An is indeed very likable, making it difficult for him to resist and refuse.

The waiter quickly brought up the bottom of the coconut chicken pot, followed by the dishes ordered by several people, which looked very rich and impressive on the table.

Xiao Yichen first put the boilable yams and potatoes in, and then the meat. Tao Rui wanted to say that eating hot pot also pays attention to the order, but seeing that Xiao Yichen was obviously hungry and crazy, he took everything he wanted to say go back.No matter how he eats, as long as he eats happily is the most important thing.

After the meat was cooked, Xiao Yichen scooped half a bowl out of An An's bowl first, but he was in no hurry to give it to An An, fearing that he would burn him.

The air conditioner is turned on in the hot pot restaurant, but under the countless hot pot offensives in full swing, the effect of the air conditioner is also insignificant.Xiao Yichen was indeed hungry. After the meat and vegetables were cooked, he scooped up a bowl first. He was sweating profusely after eating, but he still felt pretty good.

Later, Xiao Yichen got up and moved the air conditioner in the private room to the dining table at an angle, so that the cool wind could blow over more conveniently.

The theme of this hot pot meal was binge eating, no one started the conversation, but it is true that eating can resolve all embarrassments. Tao Rui is not embarrassed, Xiao Yichen doesn't understand, but at least his attention is attracted by the food, He didn't think that letting Tao Rui get along with An An would cause such strong embarrassment and anxiety.

Xiao Yichen kept picking up several bowls, and when he was almost done eating, he couldn't bear it anymore and had to go to the bathroom.

Xiao Yichen stood up, hesitating whether An An could stay alone for a while, and finally chose to seek An An's opinion, keeping his eyes level with An An's and said: "An An, Dad wants to go to the bathroom, do you want to go, or stay in the bathroom?" Waiting for Dad here?"

An An was eating his favorite sliced ​​beef, thought for a while and then shook his head.

Xiao Yichen hesitantly turned his gaze to Tao Rui, and said awkwardly: "Tao Rui, help me..."

Tao Rui glanced lightly at Xiao Yichen, and interrupted before Xiao Yichen finished speaking: "Go, don't worry."

Xiao Yichen was really in a hurry, thinking that it wouldn't be too long anyway, so he quickly opened the door of the box and went out.

After Xiao Yichen left, the already awkward atmosphere suddenly became more oppressive and dignified.It's just that An An probably can't feel it, all his attention is on the small half bowl of beef slices in front of him.

An An eats very slowly, but her posture looks very serious, as if every piece of meat is alive, and they must be eaten with seriousness and respect.

After playing the game for a while, Tao Rui felt more and more absent-minded, and his eyes began to involuntarily fall on An An, who was facing him with his head down, and began to look at him seriously with complicated eyes.

Tao Rui had hoped that An An could look more like Xiao Yichen, but this wish obviously failed to come true.An An's eyes are very similar to Xiao Yichen's, with double eyelids and long and thick eyelashes, they look very beautiful.But other than that, An An looks a little different from Xiao Yichen.

An An's appearance made Tao Rui feel inexplicably familiar. He always felt that An An looked like a person, and the answer came to his mind, but Tao Rui just couldn't remember who An An looked like.

When An An buried himself in eating all the beef slices, Xiao Yichen was still in the bathroom and did not come back. Tao Rui couldn't help wondering if Xiao Yichen had fallen into the bathroom.

After An An finished eating the beef slices, she began to draw circles on the table with her fingers boredly, muttering something softly in her mouth.

Tao Rui also felt bored, and wanted to continue playing games, but he couldn't pass the psychological level of leaving the child alone, so he thought for a while and reached out to fumble in his pocket for a long time, and took out a fruit candy.

Tao Rui put the fruit candy in his palm, passed it to An An across half the dining table, and asked softly like Xiao Yichen, "Do you want to eat?"

An An looked up at the candy, probably having struggled a lot in her heart, and then hesitantly picked up the candy carefully.

Tao Rui really wanted to pinch An An's soft and tender face, but he suppressed his strange uncle-like thoughts, and said gently, "Can you peel the candy paper?"

An An squeezed the candy in her hand, bowed her head and said nothing.

Tao Rui stared at the extremely shy child, and suddenly asked again: "Your dad still looks like a child, are you tired of playing with him?"

An An held the candy in one hand, and continued to draw circles on the table with her fingers in the other hand, still silent and did not answer Tao Rui.

Tao Rui waited patiently, but he still couldn't wait for any reaction from An An, and finally understood the general concept of Xiao Yichen's reticence, so Tao Rui no longer intentionally chatted with An An.

Tao Rui unlocked the phone screen, ready to continue playing the levels he always failed before.

When the green frog head crackling was eliminated, Tao Rui was caught off guard and heard An An's very low and slow voice seriously: "I'll play with dad, dad is happy."
