I Saw Your Mother

"Sigh~, ever since Xiao Xiao can remember, she's seen other girls have fathers and has asked us about her father several times. One time, Cai Lin gave Xiao Xiao this answer."

Seeing her father-in-law turn his gaze towards her, Yang Xiyue spoke up to explain.

"Oh? It was Cai Lin who agreed to Xiao Xiao's request?"

Hearing Yang Xiyue say this surprised Xiao Lin somewhat.

He thought the person who agreed to Xiao Xiao's request would be the brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, or at the very least, Xiao Zhan and Yang Xiyue. He never expected it to be Medusa!

Although Yang Xiyue's answer surprised Xiao Lin somewhat, he was in a good mood after hearing the news.

After all, this means that Medusa has basically accepted her status as a daughter-in-law of the Xiao Household family.

To be honest, among Xiao Yan's many women, Medusa is actually the most difficult to deal with.

Because all of Xiao Yan's other Confidantes fell in love with Xiao Yan first before getting together with him.

Medusa was the only exception.

She only gradually accepted Xiao Yan because of the child!

If you had to describe the relationship between Xiao Yan Medusa in one idiom, it would be "marriage before love".

Therefore, Xiao Lin was always somewhat worried that Medusa would resist integrating into the Xiao Household.

Although this seems unlikely based on the Original Work, who knows if things might change in this life?

However, judging from Medusa's current promises to Xiao Xiao, it seems unlikely that this will happen.

"It was Mother who promised Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao has never even seen Father. Great-Grandpa, do you think Father doesn't want Xiao Xiao anymore? Why does he never come back?"

Perhaps it was because Xiao Lin and Xiao Zhan, along with Yang Xiyue, suddenly brought up this topic, that Xiao Xiao's initial high spirits after playing around instantly vanished.

Children are like that; sometimes what they fear most is comparison.

When they discover that other children have fathers, and they themselves don't, wouldn't they start to overthink things?

This is true even if Xiao Xiao behaves in a special way!

"How could that be? If your father knew Xiao Xiao was born, he'd probably jump for joy. How could he not want Xiao Xiao?"

Although Xiao Lin enjoys teasing Xiao Yan, he certainly wouldn't say certain things carelessly under these circumstances.

It's important to understand that for children whose minds are not yet fully mature, every word and action of adults will influence their development.

If you instill bad ideas in your child and cause them to grow up in the wrong direction, then you'll have nowhere to turn to for help!

Xiao Lin might set traps for Xiao Yan, but he would never use a child to do so!

Xiao Lin still has such a bottom line.

After all, he dug the hole mainly for fun.

If Xiao Xiao is used to set a trap for Xiao Yan, then the nature of the situation changes.

Xiao Lin wouldn't do something so stupid!

"Great-Grandpa, will Father really like Xiao Xiao?"

The little guy looked at Xiao Lin with watery eyes, clearly not quite believing him.

"It's absolutely true! Grandpa guarantees it! Because, you know, your silly dad doesn't even know Xiao Xiao was born yet!"

Xiao Lin explained to the little guy with a bit of a laugh.

However, he wasn't lying to Xiao Xiao; it was simply the truth.

Xiao Yan, well, sometimes he's just a bit oblivious.

Although Medusa didn't give him a specific date for the child's birth, so much time has passed, Nezha has already been born, let alone Xiao Xiao!

Xiao Yan had clearly lost his mind while adventuring in the Central Plains, and had completely forgotten that he was expecting a child.

This wasn't Xiao Lin trying to make excuses for Xiao Yan.

Rather, Xiao Yan is indeed that kind of person.

"Ah? Father didn't know Xiao Xiao was born? Oh, I see. Then Father is indeed quite dense..."

After hearing her great-grandfather's explanation, Xiao Xiao's little face lit up with a smile again.

Clearly, the little girl has accepted the fact that her father is not very smart, but that he doesn't abandon her.

And just like that, the little guy was finally calmed down.

With his mood improved, after playing around, and feeling a surge of energy within him, the little guy naturally felt sleepy.

In fact, the little guy often sleeps for days on end.

It was a coincidence that she was still awake when Xiao Lin returned today.

This kind of sleep also helps Xiao Xiao to master her own power!

Seeing that the little one's eyelids were starting to droop, Yang Xiyue took him back from Xiao Lin's arms.

"Great-Grandpa, I'm going to sleep now..."

Before being carried away by his grandmother, the little guy said something to Xiao Lin.

"Okay, Grandpa will play with you after Xiao Xiao wakes up!"

Seeing how adorable the little guy was, Xiao Lin couldn't help but smile lovingly and say...

"Okay, great-grandpa, pinky promise... phew~."

The little guy had just stretched out his right pinky finger to try and hook it with Xiao Lin's when he started breathing evenly.

"Okay, pinky promise!"

However, even though the little guy was asleep, Xiao Lin still kept his pinky promise with him.

"Dad, A-Zhan, Xiao Xiao is already asleep, so I'll carry her inside first."

Upon seeing this, Yang Xiyue also spoke up.

"Um."

Xiao Lin nodded.

"Yue'er, I'll leave Xiao Xiao in your care for now."

Xiao Zhan then spoke up as well.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Xiyue carried the already sleeping Xiao Xiao away.

At this point, only Xiao Lin and his son Xiao Zhan remained in the original spot.

"Not bad, you've already reached the Three-Star Dou Venerable!"

After looking Xiao Zhan up and down, Xiao Lin smiled and spoke.

After Xiao Zhan refined the Life Creation Pill with Xiao Lin's help, he had already reached the Peak Nine-Star Dou Zong.

But at that time, some of the medicinal effects remained in Xiao Zhan's body.

Therefore, Xiao Zhan was able to break through to the Three-Star Dou Venerable realm two years later.

At this point, the patriarch of the Xiao Household family could finally show some semblance of respectability.

Of course, it's not just Xiao Zhan; Yang Xiyue, who is now the matriarch of the Xiao Household, has also broken through to the One-Star Dou Venerable.

It can only be said that the effects of the Life Creation Pill are indeed quite remarkable!

"Hehe, as long as you didn't embarrass your father!"

With both talent and strength, Xiao Zhan became much more confident.

"By the way, Dad, where have you been these past two years? I tried to contact you many times using the Communication Stone, but I didn't get a response. I thought you..."

Thinking of something, Xiao Zhan immediately asked another question.

As for what he didn't finish saying, Xiao Lin naturally knew what he wanted to say.

They simply thought something had happened to them.

"Ah, I did go to a rather special place these past two years, so it's normal that you couldn't contact me! Zhan'er, actually I saw your mother a while ago..."

Xiao Zhan: "??????"

However, as soon as Xiao Lin finished speaking, Xiao Zhan was completely dumbfounded!
