Chapter 1072: Come, Let Me Carry You

He would not go if his mother wasn’t going.

Xi Xi ran over, tugged at her mother’s skirts and said playfully, “Mom, let’s go watch ‘Adventure King’. My cla.s.smates have all been raving about it.”

Xi Xi thought that it sounded fun. She didn’t want to stay at home but instead, she wanted to head outside to play.

He Xiyan didn’t know how to respond nor reject her children’s request. Hence, she had no choice but to lead the children downstairs.

Xia Jingshu had already left but there was a car parked outside the gates.

Mo Yixuan leaned against the car in his white s.h.i.+rt, blue-and-white striped tie, and black trousers. He Xiyan had bought him this tie six years ago. He had always treasured every gift she had given him and couldn’t bear to throw them away.

There were many clothes and shoes that he had been wearing for a long time but he still kept these items.

He was 32 years of age but his looks haven’t changed much compared to his twenties. His features were as exquisite and well-defined as a statue and he fit the ideal beauty standards for men and looked equally handsome from every angle.

He placed one hand on the car and held his phone with the other. His gaze never left the doorway of the castle the moment he arrived at the castle.

His lips curved into a beautiful smile when he saw his child and the woman he loved emerge from the castle.

Yuan Yuan ran out of the castle happily the moment he spotted his father.

“Dad…” Yuan Yuan said as he ran over and hugged his dad’s legs.

Mo Yixuan smiled happily and his gaze softened when he saw his child.

He was a workaholic and so, he was very solemn and cold at the workplace and hardly smiled. However, his gaze would soften and his eyes were filled with joy and tenderness the moment he saw Yuan Yuan.

“Yuan Yuan, is your mother coming?” Mo Yixuan asked.

He had intended to bring Yan Yan and Xi Xi to the movies today.

Yuan Yuan beamed brightly and he seemed very excited as he said, “Dad, mom and my sister will go to the movies as well.”

It wasn’t long before He Xiyan emerged from the castle with her daughter. Xi Xi immediately spotted Yuan Yuan’s father who was slimmer than her father.

Xi Xi couldn’t help but pout unhappily. She wished that her father was here with them today since Yuan Yuan’s father was not her father.

He Xiyan’s face was dark and there was no trace of happiness nor excitement on her face. Her gaze was cold and aloof.

She didn’t even look at Mo Yixuan even after she walked up to the doorway.

Mo Yixuan wasn’t upset but instead, he felt a little excited because this was finally his chance to spend time with Yan Yan even though she was very reluctant to head out with him.

He then turned to look at Xi Xi and Xi Xi was also studying him.

“Xi Xi… come, let me hold you!” Mo Yixuan said as he stretched out his arms.

Xi Xi might not be his daughter but he would raise this child as his own as long as Yan Yan returned to his side.

He really wanted to have a daughter as well.

Xi Xi looked up at Yuan Yuan’s father but she didn’t want to go over. She made a face Mo Yixuan and paused for a moment before she said, “I don’t want to hold me.”

She scoffed coldly since she didn’t like Yuan Yuan’s father.

Mo Yixuan’s arms hung mid-air awkwardly and he finally lowered them in resignation.

It made sense since he had not interacted with this child before but he was sure that Xi Xi wouldn’t find him so detestable after they got to know each other better.

Yuan Yuan rode shotgun beside his father while He Xiyan carried Xi Xi and sat in the backseat.
