"...Sure. But if you want to video chat with Little Ma, he has to know how, too."Shuangshuang hurriedly nodded.
"Okay, tomorrow I’ll ’zhuo’ with him!"
After Shuangshuang explained everything to Ma Siyuan, Ma Siyuan quickly raised his brows and immediately said,
"Then we can mail the drawings to you too!"
"Yeah!"
Shuangshuang nodded.
The bit of disappointment Ma Siyuan had before faded somewhat.
He’d thought that once Shuangshuang left, he’d never see her again, but hearing her say that, turns out they could still keep in touch!
Maybe it’s because they know so little and understand so little that children can be this innocent.
The panic of being separated long-distance from a friend gets eased by things like writing letters and video calls.
Later that evening, Su Xiaomeng called Ma Xingchang to tell him that Ma Siyuan was at their place, and that if it was convenient he could come over for dinner.
Or else tomorrow, she would personally take Ma Siyuan back.
Ma Xingchang was busy with official work; when Su Xiaomeng called, he was still in a meeting.
After she said that, Ma Xingchang replied that tomorrow he would come pick him up himself, and also see their family off.
Yin Shixiu had already flown to Munich, Germany two days ago.
The medical team was ready, and Yin Shixiu didn’t want those medical professors to wait any longer.
Bodyguards and assistants accompanied him on the way, and when he arrived there were people designated to pick him up.
Bai Sixian cooked a whole table full of dishes, basically all the ones the kids liked.
Prince Huang hadn’t been idle at home these past few days either; he finished a puzzle of more than a hundred pieces and tinkered out two robot models.
After Old A Bu left, Grandpa was really heartbroken, so Bai Sixian invited him over to stay for a few days.
Every day Prince Huang followed his great-great-grandfather to learn calligraphy.
Looking at Prince Huang, Su Xiaomeng truly felt this kid didn’t seem like someone she’d given birth to.
When she was little, aside from being interested in dance, she had no interest at all in things like calligraphy, Go, or drawing.
But Prince Huang was something else—so far there was nothing he wasn’t willing to try.
At such a young age, he would stay in the study with his great-great-grandfather all afternoon, writing the same character over and over dozens of times, without ever uttering a word of complaint.
Bai Fengmao had already praised Prince Huang’s aptitude in every area to the skies.
After Shuangshuang brought Ma Siyuan back, she dragged him straight into the little room she shared with Prince Huang.
Even though the two kids hadn’t slept in their own room for a long time, all the toys and such were still piled up in the small room.
As soon as she went in, Shuangshuang let go of Ma Siyuan and started digging around under the bed and under the desk by herself....
Ma Siyuan waited curiously to the side. Finally, he heard Shuangshuang shout, "Found it early (found it)!"
He saw Shuangshuang holding two bunnies and handing them to him.
Ma Siyuan froze... Staring at the cute bunnies in his hands, he pressed his lips together. Instinctively he thought Shuangshuang was giving these two bunnies to him.
"Thank you..."
He murmured under his breath.
Ma Siyuan felt a bit embarrassed.
Shuangshuang blinked and didn’t pay any attention to his thank you. She just pointed straight at the bunnies in his hands,
"The ears are broken, look..."
Afraid that Ma Siyuan wouldn’t see, Shuangshuang even deliberately tugged on the bunnies’ ears, left and right—pretty symmetrical, actually.
Ma Siyuan froze again, but soon the faint smile returned to his face. Even if Shuangshuang was giving him broken bunnies, it was still her goodwill...
"You can’t let Mom see. You help me fix them..."
Shuangshuang looked at Ma Siyuan seriously and spoke in a low voice.
"..."
The expression on Ma Siyuan’s face instantly stiffened. He looked up at Shuangshuang...
"Mm... If Mom sees the bunnies are broken, she’ll scold me!"
"..."
"And you can’t let my brother know either... he’ll tell on me!"
"..."
"You fix them for me, and when I come back, you have to give them back to me, okay?"
"...Okay."
Ma Siyuan pressed his lips together; now he really had been overthinking things.
But... forget it. As long as she’s happy.
Ma Siyuan stuffed the two bunnies into his backpack, then patted the bulging bag that looked like a big round ball and bared his teeth in a grin at Shuangshuang,
"Like this, Auntie won’t notice, right?"
Shuangshuang took a look and nodded,
"Mm, she won’t notice!"
"Heh heh."
"Little ones, come out and eat!"
Su Xiaomeng called into the room, and Shuangshuang and Ma Siyuan came out, just in time to see Prince Huang leaning against the doorframe.
Shuangshuang felt guilty like a thief, and following her, Ma Siyuan also felt guilty like a thief...
"Brother, you scared me!"
Shuangshuang hurriedly said, and Prince Huang glanced at her and muttered,
"What are you two up to?"
His gaze accidentally met Ma Siyuan’s, and Ma Siyuan immediately shifted his eyes away, following Shuangshuang toward the living room.
