Chapter 563: No Hugging Mommy, Only Hugging Me

Everyone saw how Suisui relied on Chi Yu like this, and they were envious.

Especially Lin Shi, who could scare Suisui with a casual little action, his face almost twisted with jealousy.

But thinking a little, realizing that this dependency has its source, he felt a slight sense of relief.

"How about," Fu Yao suddenly suggested, "bringing Suisui along, if Chi Yu doesn’t mind?"

Listen!

The question was whether Chi Yu minded.

Instead of asking if Suisui’s mom minded.

It’s letting Chi Yu make the decision.

How can Chi Yu, an outsider, decide for Suisui?

Unless he’s not an outsider...

There was an implication in Fu Yao’s words, even Lin Shi, a bit thick, could hear it, and he eagerly looked at Chi Yu, wanting to see how he would respond.

Internally giving a thumbs-up: Sister Fu Yao sure knows how to ask.

Chi Yu noticed Lin Shi’s expression as if waiting for drama and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

He’s not slow, naturally realizing Fu Yao was trying to trap him into saying something in public, so he replied without hesitation, "The production team should be quite happy to have kids on screen, but I think it’s better to inquire about the child’s mother’s opinion."

Then he glanced around at everyone, his gaze sweeping the group: "What do you all think?"

The tables turned, Fu Yao didn’t show any sign of surprise, nodded slightly, "You’re right, I did overlook that. We should indeed ask Suisui’s mom for her opinion."

Lin Shi seized the opportunity: "But Suisui’s mom hasn’t come out yet, so why not, Chi Yu, you go and ask for us, it seems like you know her better?"

The way those words were said...

Chi Yu couldn’t help but retort, "I feel like you have some kind of big illness."

Lin Shi slowly closed his open mouth, raising a hand to scratch behind his ear with an expression like, as long as I’m not embarrassed, you’re the one who’s embarrassing yourself.

Sheng Yi just quietly watched the few of them perform from the side.

Everyone was amused.

But seeing how Chi Yu handled it so calmly, it seems he might be hoping his relationship with Gu Yuan gets publicly acknowledged on the show; after all, he was here to record the show, and previously he came because of this matter. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

In the end, because Gu Yuan went to Yanjing, he had to put his little plan on hold.

Who knew after going around in circles, Gu Yuan came to Ancient Water Village, and not even plan B was needed; continuing with plan A is perfect!

While Lin Shi was racking his brain for the next idea, he saw Chi Yu crouching down with Suisui, yet even crouching down, Suisui still clung to Chi Yu like an octopus.

Everyone saw Chi Yu facing the little girl in his arms, the utmost gentle patience and tone in reassuring her, "If you want to come with us to play, you need to get permission from your mom first, only if she allows you to go, you can go, understand?"

Suisui puckered her lips, grumbled a bit, but neither nodded nor shook her head.

Seeing the little girl was stubborn, Chi Yu found it both amusing and frustrating, "Did your mom tell you, no matter where you go, you need to tell her?"

Suisui nodded obediently, "Yeah."

Chi Yu said, "Then I’ll go talk to your mom now, and persuade her to let you come with me, is that okay?"

Suisui hesitated, her beautiful eyes widening, but when she spoke, her voice was muffled, "Will you really take me with you?"

"Of course," Chi Yu answered reassuringly.

The little girl wasn’t exactly lacking a sense of security, it’s just that when she clung to someone, she would often be somewhat unreasonable, like her dad. Of course, wanting Suisui to be unreasonable depends on the person. There are few people around who let her be willful and spoiled.

She could be spoiled with her mom, but sometimes mom was strict.

She could be spoiled with her godmother.

She could be spoiled with Grandpa Xiang, Grandma Mu, Great Grandma, and Grandma...

But the one who truly let Suisui be spoiled was Chi Yu, not just spoiled, even unruly, because Chi Yu would indulge her without limits.

She was coaxed.

Chi Yu lifted Suisui slightly up from his arms, and the little legs hanging onto him instinctively came down, and then Chi Yu placed her on the ground to stand.

Facing each other, Chi Yu reached a hand to brush Suisui’s hair a few times, "I’ll be back very soon, wait for me here."

Suisui nodded obediently, "Okay~"

Before going inside, Chi Yu didn’t forget to inform everyone, though his tone implied it was due to everyone’s urging that he had to be the one to take the lead.

"Since you all unanimously agreed to let Suisui join us in the rest of the recording, I can only go and ask Miss Gu’s opinion to see if she agrees." His voice suddenly turned high-pitched, "If... Miss Gu doesn’t agree, then I’ve already done my best, does anyone have any objections?"
