Elite Doting Marriage: Crafty Husband, Aloof Cute Wife
chapter-1588

The young boy sounded so sensible and grew up with his words of concern.

Ming Ansheng gazed tenderly at the boy who stood in front of him. He stroked his hair and replied, “I’m not tired. I will go to sleep soon.”

“Daddy, you smell of smoke.” Beibei wrinkled his nose, and he fanned the air with his hand.

Ming Ansheng raised an eyebrow. “Am I gross?”

“You’re not.” Beibei shook his head. “We are both men and I don’t think it’s gross. But my future stepmother would think so.”

It stunned Ming Ansheng. “Stepmother?”

Beibei replied, “That pretty sister I saw was the same woman in the photo inside your wallet.”

He carefully surveyed Ming Ansheng’s expression and noticed that his smile had disappeared. He hung his head low and muttered, “Grandmother told me that you loved her.”

“You’re still so young. What do you know about love?” Ming Ansheng suddenly broke into a grin as he caressed his head.

“Of course I know.” The boy noticed that Ming Ansheng was smiling, and with confidence in his voice, he immediately spoke, “Just like how I love Daddy. I have you as my phone wallpaper and all my classmates say that you’re so handsome and cool.”

He raised his chin smugly and looked proud of himself.

His words startled Ming Ansheng.

He stretched and pulled Beibei towards him. “It was the parent-teacher conference a few days ago. Grandmother said you ranked second in school.”

Although he stayed at home most of the time, he was always busy with work. So he didn’t have much time with Beibei.

But his son was still close to him.

He knew that Beibei always boasted to his classmates and grandmother that his daddy was his idol and hero.

But he really didn’t do much for him as a father. He was merely playing his role as his ‘father’.

Beibei nodded and pouted. “I should have been first,” he said in despair.

Ming Ansheng said encouragingly, “You’re brilliant.”

“But the top student was a girl.” Beibei furrowed his eyebrows, and he looked indignant. “She scored higher in English and Chinese, but I scored higher than her in Math. But overall, she won me by three marks.”

So this fellow was angry… for losing to a girl.

‘That dumb girl Wen Xuxu is the top student again! How infuriating!’

Ming Ansheng couldn’t help but reminisce those days in school. Wen Xuxu constantly defeated Yan Rusheng and him. He wasn’t too affected, but Yan Rusheng was furious.

But Wen Xuxu always scored a few marks higher than him.

And Yan Rusheng had the same reaction as Beibei right now every time they received their results. It was as though he despised girls.

Ming Ansheng mulled over it and smiled. “Aunt Xuxu had always won Uncle Third Yan in school. She was always the top student.”

“All of you are so weak, you can’t even win a girl.” Beibei threw him a disdainful look before proclaiming loudly, “I will surpass her during the finals.”

Ming Ansheng nodded encouragingly and said, “Sure, I have faith in you.”

He stroked Beibei’s head once more.

All humans crave warmth and love from the ones they hold dear to their heart. It had been a long time since he had garnered his daddy’s affection and encouragement. Beibei couldn’t bear to leave Ming Ansheng and clung to him.
