Chapter 320: Are you specifically trying to steal my wife?
Tan Zhengchu walked lightly and pushed open the door to the room.
As soon as I stepped inside, I heard Su Yingxue's gentle voice calling out affectionately, "Little Nezha, are you sleeping well?"
Tan Zhengchu frowned, his face full of doubt, and blurted out, "Little Nezha? This name... isn't it a bit too mischievous? Does it mean he'll be like Sun Wukong, causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace in the future?"
Su Yingxue smiled slightly and explained, "Oh dear, I was just saying it offhand. Grandma is already taking care of the proper naming."
Tan Zhengchu shrugged and said, "That's true. Grandma cares a lot about this child, so we'll definitely have to think about his name carefully."
Speaking of his grandmother, Tan Zhengchu continued, "The old lady couldn't come up with names for those seven children before, and she's been thinking about it ever since. This time, she'll have to think about it carefully."
Su Yingxue gently handed the sleeping child to the waiting maid, turned to face Tan Zhengchu, and was about to speak—
"Wah—" The child's loud cry suddenly broke the silence of the room.
The maid rushed forward, gently rocking the child, humming softly, and stroking him tenderly, but the child wouldn't listen.
The baby stared intently at Su Yingxue, and cried even louder.
The maid sighed and said with a smile, "Madam, the child just wants you."
Upon hearing this, Su Yingxue quickly walked away from Tan Zhengchu and reached out to hug the child.
Amazingly, the child stopped crying instantly upon seeing Su Yingxue, and a sweet smile appeared on his lips.
Su Yingxue was full of surprise and exclaimed, "It's only a little over a month old, and it can already smile!"
Seeing this, Tan Zhengchu was filled with curiosity and quickly stepped forward to see what the child looked like when he smiled.
But to everyone's surprise, the child's smile vanished instantly upon seeing Tan Zhengchu, and his eyes were fixed on Su Yingxue, as if his mother was the most important person in the room.
Tan Zhengchu's heart skipped a beat. Being ignored by the child like this made him extremely unhappy. He thought to himself: Is this little guy here specifically to steal my wife?
Tan Zhengchu could only stand aside and watch helplessly as Su Yingxue's heart and eyes were completely occupied by the child.
The more he looked at him, the more uncomfortable he felt. A thought quietly popped into his mind: This child is just trying to steal Su Yingxue's attention from me!
……
When my son was four months old, the little guy became more and more active.
Whenever Tan Zhengchu and Su Yingxue were being affectionate, their son's cries would inadvertently break out.
The tiny figure gripped the edge of the crib tightly with both hands, its dark eyes staring straight at the big bed, as if protesting something.
Tan Zhengchu was immersed in the sweet atmosphere with Su Yingxue when the loud crying was like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing his enthusiasm.
Upon seeing this, his expression immediately turned dejected, and his once ardent gaze dimmed.
Seeing this, Su Yingxue gently kissed Tan Zhengchu's cheek and whispered, "Baby, the baby is probably hungry."
Tan Zhengchu felt a surge of anger and couldn't help but mutter, "This little guy always ruins our good time." After all, their precious intimate moments had been interrupted by their son once again.
Tan Zhengchu frowned, looking puzzled, and asked, "Why is he always hungry? He seems like a little foodie, never stopping for a moment."
Su Yingxue patiently explained, "Boys are more prone to illness if they cry too much, and they might get throat problems. As their mother, I feel so sorry for them, and whenever they cry, I think about comforting them as soon as possible."
Tan Zhengchu sighed helplessly, his heart filled with resignation.
Looking at his crying son in the crib, Tan Zhengchu couldn't help but sigh, "I really hope this little guy grows up quickly and stops disturbing our time together."
When asked about his son's name, Tan Zhengchu told Su Yingxue, "The old lady named our son Tan Jingyan, and his nickname is Babao."
Su Yingxue smiled and comforted him, "Children grow up very fast. Soon, they will be able to run and play like the other seven children, and they won't be so clingy anymore."
Tan Zhengchu was unwilling to be "suppressed" by his son like this, so he decided to try holding him. He reached out and carefully picked his son up from the crib.
But the next second, his son burst into loud sobs, a cry that was deafening. Tan Zhengchu was flustered and at a loss for what to do.
Su Yingxue reluctantly took her son. Surprisingly, as soon as he was in his mother's arms, Xiao Yan stopped crying and even grinned.
Tan Zhengchu felt a deep sense of frustration watching this scene.
After ten rounds of struggle with his son, Tan Zhengchu finally gave up, feeling resentful: "This kid is clearly here to steal my wife!"
When her son cried for the tenth time, Su Yingxue skillfully held him in her arms, softly humming a lullaby to soothe the little guy's emotions.
She turned to Tan Zhengchu and said, "Honey, stop fooling around. You have to go to work tomorrow."
Tan Zhengchu, however, persisted, holding Su Yingxue tightly and pleading, "I just want to sleep holding you, and I want to again tonight..."
Su Yingxue gently patted Tan Zhengchu's hand and tenderly promised, "I'll definitely make it up to you in a few days, okay?"
As she spoke, she took Tan Zhengchu's hand, trying to soothe his somewhat disappointed mood.
Su Yingxue looked at her son in her arms, then at Tan Zhengchu who was still sulking beside her, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
She felt as if she were taking care of two children: her son, who was crying for milk, and Tan Zhengchu, who was somewhat childish in his emotions.
However, this busy yet cozy life filled her heart with happiness and contentment.
……
The next day, Su Yingxue slowly woke up and felt a warm sensation beside her. She lazily opened her eyes and saw her beloved son, Babao, with his lively figure.
Babao had been awake for quite some time and was happily crawling around on the bed like a little explorer.
The little guy's chubby little hands and legs moved rhythmically, looking incredibly cute.
What brought Su Yingxue a sense of relief was that although Babao was having a great time, he was very considerate and did not make a sound to disturb his sleeping mother.
Su Yingxue stretched and searched the room, but Tan Zhengchu was nowhere to be seen.
She knew in her heart that Tan Zhengchu, as a domineering CEO who was adept at maneuvering in the business world, was usually very busy. He either got up early to deal with urgent matters of the company or had important business negotiations.
Thinking of this, Su Yingxue narrowed her eyes, her lips curving upwards into a relaxed smile.
She knew that Tan Zhengchu worked very hard outside for the sake of the family, and this busy schedule of leaving early and returning late had long become the norm in their lives.
