Chapter 120 - Daddy and Mommy Will Never Abandon Ye Ye
Hiding nearby, Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying could no longer bear it.
They couldn't stand seeing their precious child cry...
"Young Master, Madam, the child is still young, you can take it slow..."
Seeing Luo Hongye's helpless and pitiful little figure, Yue Qingyou, as the 'grandmother,' couldn't hold back any longer.
Luo Ruying also felt that it was too much to force the child to mingle with other children at this point.
"Husband..."
Luo Ruying said softly, her heart melting.
"Yes, let's go back to her..."
Ning Yechen knew what Luo Ruying was about to say. He, too, had already softened...
Even if the child said she wanted to stay with them forever and not go to school, he wouldn't mind.
He couldn't bear to see his precious daughter sad and crying. As long as she was happy, nothing else mattered.
With his abilities, it wasn't like he couldn't protect her for her entire life.
Just as Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying were about to step out, Su Yi noticed Luo Hongye on the verge of tears and walked over to her, squatting down and taking her hand.
"Little Ye Ye, what's wrong?"
"Daddy and Mommy are gone..."
Luo Hongye said pitifully.
"Little Ye Ye, your Daddy and Mommy probably just had something to take care of and left temporarily. Don't worry."
"Before they come back, why don't you come play games with Sister and other friends~?"
Su Yi said with a gentle smile, comforting her softly.
She had already spotted Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying hiding not far away and understood their intentions.
If they didn't leave, Luo Hongye probably wouldn't play with her or the other children.
Luo Hongye lowered her head, still hesitant, feeling a sense of resistance and wariness towards unfamiliar people.
Just then, the nimble rabbit that Luo Hongye had been secretly holding in her hand hopped out.
Luo Hongye quickly chased after the rabbit and hugged it back into her arms.
"What a nimble and adorable rabbit~"
Su Yi, seeing this, deliberately raised her voice in praise.
Her voice immediately attracted the other children, who gathered around Luo Hongye.
Watching the lively rabbit hopping around, a group of curious children exclaimed with envy,
"What a cute rabbit~"
"It looks just like a real one!"
"It, it moved again!"
"Can, can I touch it?"
Suddenly surrounded, Luo Hongye seemed a bit timid, but seeing the eager anticipation in everyone's eyes, she mustered up her courage, opened her hands, and shared the spirit rabbit with them.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
"It's actually soft to the touch!"
"Did you make this yourself?"
The children surrounded Luo Hongye, chattering excitedly about the spirit rabbit in her hands, taking turns to touch it.
Luo Hongye's shyness gradually faded, and she took the initiative to answer their questions,
"Mommy gave it to me~"
"Wow, Ye Ye's mommy is so amazing!"
"I want one too..."
"Can, can I trade something with you for it?"
Hiding nearby, Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying, seeing Luo Hongye starting to interact with the others, both breathed a sigh of relief.
Taking the first step is often the hardest.
Luo Hongye was now willing to talk to others, and they were relieved...
Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying didn't rush out but quietly watched Luo Hongye playing with the other children.
It wasn't until Luo Hongye was no longer timid and had mostly integrated with the others that Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen slowly walked out.
"Daddy, Mommy~"
As soon as Luo Hongye saw Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying, she immediately ran towards them with her little steps.
She almost tripped because she was running too fast, but luckily, Luo Ruying reached out in time to catch her and pull her into her embrace.
"Ye Ye, be careful, don't run so fast."
"Okay..."
"Mommy and Daddy, don't leave Ye Ye behind..."
Luo Hongye hugged Luo Ruying tightly and whispered.
Hearing this, Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying felt their hearts melt. They both lovingly stroked Luo Hongye's little head and back.
"Don't worry, Daddy and Mommy will never abandon Ye Ye."
Su Yi led the other children slowly towards Luo Ruying. Seeing the heartwarming scene of Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen embracing Luo Hongye, a family of three, her first thought was that they looked like a celestial couple...
Not only was the child well-behaved and sensible, but Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying were also deeply affectionate towards each other.
Their love for their child was beyond words...
It was the first time she had seen parents who were so worried about their child that they stayed with her the entire time.
Luo Ruying looked at the children gathering around, smiled at them, and then asked Luo Hongye in her arms with a smile,
"Ye Ye, are these your new friends?"
"Yes...!"
"Ye Ye's new friends..."
"Everyone really likes the little rabbit Mommy made~"
Luo Hongye nodded happily, pointing to the spirit rabbit that was being held in someone else's hands.
"Is that so~"
"Then how about I make one for each of you?"
Luo Ruying said with a gentle and approachable smile, squatting down and addressing all the children around her.
As soon as she said this, all the children's eyes lit up. They eagerly crowded around her, shouting excitedly,
"I want one, I want one, I want one~"
"Ye Ye's Mommy, can I have a koi fish?"
"I want a big gold ingot~!"
"I want a beautiful woman!!"
"Then I want a handsome rooster~"
"Okay, okay~"
Luo Ruying smiled and agreed to all their requests.
In no time, she had crafted a desired spirit image for each child present, instantly winning their hearts.
"Alright, alright, don't trouble Ye Ye's Mommy anymore~!"
"Quickly say thank you to Ye Ye's Mommy."
Su Yi guided the children step by step.
"Thank you, Ye Ye's Mommy~"
Holding their beloved spirit images, the children obediently and sweetly expressed their gratitude.
"Sister Luo, I'm so sorry for the trouble."
Su Yi said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
It was her job to teach and entertain the children, yet she had let Luo Ruying take on the task.
"It's no problem at all. I actually enjoyed it."
Luo Ruying waved her hand with a smile.
Being surrounded by the children like this wasn't bad...
Su Yi bowed slightly again in apology and then continued playing with the children.
With encouragement from Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying, Luo Hongye also joined in.
Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying stood aside, quietly watching, smiles of joy spreading across their faces.
It seemed that even if they let Yue Qingyou and the others bring their child to school in the future, there wouldn't be any problems...
After more than an hour, the children finally finished their day's lessons amidst playful laughter and chatter.
Accompanied by maids or parents, the children bid farewell to Su Yi and the others.
Ning Yechen also took Luo Hongye into his arms and, together with Luo Ruying, thanked Su Yi.
"Thank you for today, Miss Su."
If it weren't for Su Yi's intentional guidance, Luo Hongye might not have integrated with the other children so easily.
"You're welcome. It's my duty as an apprentice at Nanli Academy."
"I also really enjoy spending time with the children."
Su Yi said with a smile.
Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying smiled gratefully, then slowly left, carrying Luo Hongye.
Unlike other parents who left by carriage, they leisurely strolled hand-in-hand down the street, heading home.
After two hours of play, the child was tired and had fallen asleep peacefully in their arms.
Standing at the academy's entrance, Su Yi watched Ning Yechen's family walk away, a feeling of envy welling up in her heart…
