In the town, there are all kinds of shops on both sides, pedestrians crisscross on the sidewalks, and vehicles shuttle back and forth on the road with a slight sound.
At the end of a street, soft music gently plays in a handmade art shop called ' Art Between the Fingers '.
Gu Wancheng and Bo Yizhou, who was holding Chaochao, stood in front of a shelf displaying a dazzling array of beads needed for making bracelets and various styles of small pendants.
Looking at these beautiful, shimmering beads, Gu Wancheng's eyes widened; he was practically dizzy.
"What should we choose? Chaochao, what do you think?" Too many choices are driving those with decision-making difficulties crazy.
Upon hearing this, Chaochao looked at him blankly. "Huh? Me?"
Gu Wancheng nodded vigorously. After they finished choosing, he could just use their choices directly. He was truly a genius.
He silently praised himself in his heart.
Chaochao blinked, then suddenly panicked, his little face scrunching up. Oh no, he'd been spending too much time with his dad; something seemed off.
Looking at these pretty little beads, he thought any of them would be fine. QAQ
Suddenly, Chaochao looked up, accompanied by a crisp clinking sound, then covered her head, rubbed it, and said, "Father, what do you choose!"
Bo Yizhou's face twisted slightly; Chaochao's sudden upward gaze had bumped into his chin.
He sighed deeply. This kid is getting sillier and sillier.
Hearing the crisp sound, Gu Wancheng looked over with a complicated expression, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Are you alright?"
Bo Yizhou's lips twitched, and his chin throbbed slightly. "It's alright."
I just don't know if this kid is any good.
The boy, rubbing his head, fell silent.
Gu Wancheng glanced at Chaochao's expression; she looked blank and wasn't crying, so she should be alright.
Chaochao: QAQ How about I cry a little?
Suddenly, Chaochao's eyes lit up. She patted Bo Yizhou's arm and pointed to the small pendant next to the beads. "Choose that one!"
Gu Wancheng looked over and immediately noticed a teardrop-shaped pendant. She picked it up and asked, "Is this it?"
Chaochao nodded repeatedly.
This pendant is quite unique. The outer ring is silver-white, and inside there is a transparent teardrop-shaped object with a small, sparkling flower inside, though it's obviously fake.
"It looks great, Chaochao has excellent taste," Gu Wancheng praised.
Chaochao was beaming with pride, about to raise her head, when she paused, remembering the bump on her head she had just gotten from being bumped, and abandoned the idea.
What kind of beads should we choose to match?
"This kind, I guess." Bo Yizhou picked up a transparent white bead, sparkling inside, which perfectly matched the Radiant Star Flower.
Gu Wancheng glanced at it, nodded, and then found a few silver-white stars to use as spacers between the beads.
That's all.
"Good."
The three sat down at a table, and after a while, Zhao Chengyu and his family also came over.
"Have you made your choices?" Zhao Chengyu asked, looking at the materials in front of them.
Gu Wancheng smiled and nodded, " Brother Zhao, are you guys planning to make phone cases?"
Anna said while fiddling with the materials, "Yes, a phone case shouldn't be too difficult."
Just then, Zhang Yue came over after they had finished choosing their items. "Have you all finished choosing?"
Several people nodded.
"So, who wants to go first?"
"Let Brother Zhao and the others do it first," Gu Wancheng said, wanting to figure it out himself.
Zhang Yue smiled and responded, then walked to the opposite side of them. Looking at the materials they had chosen, she said, "This is cream glue. What kind of shape do you want it to look like?"
Xiaolin: " Sister Yue, we don't know either. We don't know how to make it. Can you make something simpler?"
Zhang Yue felt like a groundhog screaming inside as the little one stared at her.
So cute!
He must be my abducted baby!
His inner smile was practically reaching for the sun, but his face remained impassive as he said with a smile, "Okay, I'll teach you something simpler."
"Pipe the buttercream like you would pipe butter cream when making a cake."
"Then we've got this in the bag, right Anna?" Zhao Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, relieved that he wouldn't have to do anything ridiculous.
Anna nodded in agreement; she was good at designing cakes.
"That would be wonderful. Let me show you some examples so you can refer to them." Zhang Yue took out a booklet containing pictures of cream-coated plastic phone cases made by previous customers.
While they were looking at the example diagram, Gu Wancheng and Chaochao had a slight disagreement about which lines to use.
"Use this, it looks nice," Chaochao said, holding up a roll of transparent, elastic thread.
"No, use this instead." Gu Wancheng held a roll of white thread.
Looking at them, Bo Yizhou sighed inwardly. Were they even the same age?
[ President Bo. Raising two three-year-olds is no easy task. (laughing emoji)]
Whether the three-year-olds of Morning and Orange can achieve unification within three minutes remains to be seen!
Chaochao puffed out her cheeks. "I'm a little kid, you have to give way to me!"
Gu Wancheng snorted and retorted, "Me too, you said so."
Chaochao was taken aback, remained silent for a moment, and then let out a loud hum.
Their fluctuating IQs left Bo Yizhou in exasperation. They hadn't realized that there was only one task to be done. To stop them from getting bogged down in this pointless question, he interjected, "You can do two."
Chaochao, Gu Wancheng: Oo
That seems to be true. The task card only says to choose one to do, it doesn't say you can't do two.
Gu Wancheng's face flushed red. She recalled how she and Chaochao had argued over who would use that kind of thread, and felt so embarrassed that she wanted to escape from this planet.
[Haha, it has to be President Bo! Thank you for your hard work, President Bo!]
Gu Wancheng immediately shut up, keeping his head down without saying a word. He kept picking up the beads to look at them, and then picking up the pendant to look at it. In short, he was very busy.
Chaochao picked up the thread and held it up to her wrist, then looked up at Bo Yizhou and said, "Father, scissors."
Bo Yizhou glanced at it, picked up the scissors, and cut off a section of the thread.
Chaochao excitedly began stringing beads, one bead at a time, like a star. But when it came to stringing the pendant, she couldn't get it through for ages, and her hand suddenly wouldn't obey her commands.
After trying several times, Chaochao glared at the pendant, her face puffed up with anger.
Gu Wancheng glanced at him and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Chaochao pouted. "I can't fit into this."
Gu Wancheng smiled knowingly, took the half-finished bracelet from his hand, and quickly threaded the pendant onto it.
"Wow!"
Chaochao opened her mouth wide in surprise, her eyes instantly turning into stars.
Gu Wancheng smiled and handed over the bracelet. Chaochao quickly raised both hands to take it, her eyes crinkling as she held the nearly finished bracelet.
Once you've threaded the larger loop through, it's time to finish.
Chaochao picked up the finished bracelet and shook it happily, "Daddy, do you think Suisui will like it?"
River Moon Bay --
Suisui and Lin Ting sat on the sofa, their live stream playing on the TV in front of them.
Lin Ting took a sip of her drink, swirled the empty glass, and laughed nonchalantly, "He loves you so much!"
Suisui glanced at him silently, offering no response.
Looking at the smiling face on the screen, I wondered what gift I should give in return.
