Chapter 1176: Chapter 1178: Ignoring You_1
"Mommy..." A tiny, aggrieved voice came muffled, melting Yang Chuxia’s heart into a messy puddle.
Ye Zi’an, however, could not stand to see his son acting so spoiled and quipped, "Son, even your mommy holding you will make you shorter."
Yang Chuxia held her forehead; she had only delayed for a moment and he’d already resumed teasing their son.
Then, Yangyang suddenly lifted his head, looking at daddy then at mommy, being unable to be held or cry or kiss, he exuded an aura of utter dejection.
Feeling wronged, he hung his head, no longer speaking or smiling.
Yang Chuxia’s heart ached at the sight, and she scooped her son into her arms.
But Yangyang still remembered Ye Zi’an’s words and hastily protested, "Don’t hold, don’t hold."
Yang Chuxia secured his little body to stop him from squirming and shot Ye Zi’an a glare before saying, "Yangyang, daddy was just tricking you earlier. Listen to mommy, as long as Yangyang eats well, you’ll grow tall in the future, and hugs and kisses won’t be a problem."
"Really?" Yangyang paused on hearing that, but he was still somewhat skeptical.
"Of course it’s true. When you were just born, you couldn’t even walk, and we carried you all the time. Aren’t you walking now and haven’t you grown taller than before?" Yang Chuxia explained, gesturing with her hands, "When you and Lele were just born, you were only this tall, but look at how tall you are now."
"Wow, so small." Yangyang quickly had his attention diverted by Yang Chuxia’s gestures, amazed at how tiny he used to be.
"Yeah, you were that small back then."
Yangyang nodded at this but then went around to Ye Zi’an, glaring up at him for a long while before accusing, "You lied!"
Ye Zi’an just raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Whose fault is it if you’re gullible? How come Lele didn’t get fooled by me?"
Okay, he was admitting that he really had tricked Yangyang.
Yangyang’s lips pursed in indignation, his tiny body shuddering with anger.
Eventually, he declared, "I won’t talk to you anymore."
Yangyang was angry, very angry!
He then snuggled back into his mommy’s embrace, hanging his head silently. After that, no matter how Ye Zi’an tried to tease him, he just wouldn’t respond.
"Oh, the little guy has quite a temper," Ye Zi’an remarked, glancing at the guava in his hand, realizing even the tasty fruit couldn’t cheer him up.
"Who told you to deceive him," Yang Chuxia said while caressing her son’s head and softly asked, "Yangyang, would you like some pomegranate?"
But Yangyang shook his head; he didn’t want to eat, not anymore.
Yang Chuxia shot another glare at Ye Zi’an. It was all your fault, why did you lie to him, don’t you know children’s hearts are fragile? Ye Zi’an, feeling awkward, scratched his nose.
"My lord and lady have arrived; right ahead is Linshan Temple," Ye Yi and others had also come along outside.
Hearing this, Yang Chuxia lifted the curtain to look out and saw the place was indeed quite nice. There was an orchard to the left and pavilions, towers, and flower beds to the right, with a few lotus flowers floating on a small pond, resembling a park.
It wasn’t much to look at compared to other places, but in Mianyang, it was a rather fine spot for a visit.
Ye Zi’an got off the carriage first, and after having Lele handed down to Ye Yi, he reached out to pick up Yangyang. But Yangyang, upon seeing him, hurriedly turned and clung tightly to his mommy’s neck, crying out, "I don’t want you to hold me."
Ye Zi’an was left speechless and exchanged a glance with Yang Chuxia, only to see schadenfreude in her eyes. Serves you right, let’s see how you like teasing now, your son is mad and really won’t pay you any mind now.
