Chapter 579: Chi Yu: Looking for My Wife_2

Also, don’t say only kids get indigestion from eating too much.

Adults can too.

Chi Yu nodded and said, "Okay, I won’t feed her anymore." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Then he stopped giving Suisui food, only handing her a glass of water.

Even though Suisui was full, there were still many dishes on the table, all of which she loved, and she was still craving. When she sat up on her knees, she saw the plate of spicy cabbage in front of Gu Yuan, pointed with her children’s chopsticks and said to Chi Yu, "I still want that."

Chi Yu said, "That’s spicy cabbage."

Suisui repeated, "Spicy cabbage."

Chi Yu said, "Say it again."

Suisui said, "Chi Yu, I want spicy cabbage."

At first, she didn’t pronounce "spicy cabbage" clearly, but after repeating it several times, it became clear, and eventually, she pronounced "spicy cabbage" almost perfectly.

Chi Yu told her, "You’ve already had a lot of spicy cabbage tonight, you can’t have any more."

"No!" Suisui shook her head vigorously to show her protest, "I want spicy cabbage."

Chi Yu put on a serious face, "Suisui."

Suisui huffed, "Hmmph!"

She wasn’t afraid at all.

She even ignored Gu Yuan, who was sitting next to Chi Yu.

Suisui, who had been kneeling, stood up directly, pointed at the plate of spicy cabbage, "I want it! I want it!"

Then, seeing Gu Yuan’s gaze, Suisui immediately squatted down and sat properly, but her whole body still leaned towards Chi Yu, speaking in a sweet, sticky tone, "Chi Yu, I just want to eat spicy cabbage."

Who wouldn’t instantly soften at such a plea?

Not only soften, but their heart would practically melt.

However, this time Chi Yu did not give in and instead lifted Suisui from her chair: "You’re full now, go play in the yard."

Children shouldn’t eat too many pickled foods. Suisui had already eaten a lot of spicy cabbage earlier, and Chi Yu was firm about not giving her more.

Being removed from her seat was like a blow to Suisui, who was still craving.

She stood there, not going to the yard or returning to her seat, her entire smile crumbling as she muttered, "I want spicy cabbage! I want spicy cabbage! I want rice and spicy cabbage!"

She sounded so pitiful, as if she was being mistreated, like the adults refused to feed her.

Gu Yuan didn’t react at all.

Chi Yu was about to get up.

Fu Yao and Sheng Yi acted quickly, mainly because they couldn’t stand hearing her pitiful voice.

Fu Yao was the first to pick Suisui up, Sheng Yi coaxed her, and Yao Tao beckoned, "Come sit over here."

Having no kids of their own, they met every child’s request without question.

Fu Yao carried Suisui to her spot, with Sheng Yi and Yao Tao on either side, so that Suisui’s parents sat directly opposite, swapping positions from earlier.

Under their protection, Suisui practically felt she could do anything.

After getting to eat the spicy cabbage, she swung her legs in satisfaction, her eyes almost closed with joy.

Fu Yao especially adored Suisui, unable to be indifferent upon hearing her pitiful tone, instinctively thinking to soothe her first.

Sheng Yi, being Suisui’s godmother, was even softer-hearted, not as composed and rational as her biological parents. Hearing Suisui’s whimpering, her heart melted, naturally going along with whatever Suisui wanted.

Chi Yu looked at Gu Yuan beside him, finding the situation hard to control.

"Yuanyuan." He gently tugged at Gu Yuan’s little finger under the table.

Gu Yuan lowered her eyes, then lifted them, glancing sideways at him.

Chi Yu was worried Gu Yuan might be angry, but her face was calm and unperturbed, not showing any sign of anger, keeping Chi Yu in a suspenseful state, almost tortured.

"What’s the matter?" This was Gu Yuan’s only reaction.

Chi Yu was stunned, not knowing what to say.

Everyone continued indulging Suisui, letting her eat whatever she wanted.

Gu Yuan didn’t bother to intervene.

And Chi Yu was seeking Gu Yuan’s opinion.

The atmosphere was quite nice, but it felt a bit different for Chi Yu.

In the short moment he was distracted, Gu Yuan slowly got up, "I’m finished eating, going out for a walk. Take your time eating."

Sheng Yi still had a smile on her face, but seeing Gu Yuan get up, she quickly asked, "Yuanyuan, where are you going? Wait for me."

"Just walking outside, to digest. Don’t rush, finish eating first, I’ll wait for you outside." After saying this, Gu Yuan stepped out from her seat and headed outside.

Sheng Yi sensed something was off.

But given Gu Yuan’s usual personality—reserved with unfamiliar people—it was hard to tell if what she suspected was true.
