Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Wei Shu Is Unreconciled

No one expected Deng Yuyuan’s "fake boyfriend" persona to be this stunning. Some people were truly born to shine, regardless of whether they presented as a man or a woman.

The Wei family watched with complex expressions as Tuantuan nestled in Deng Yuyuan’s arms, BAWLING her eyes out. One moment, she had been boasting about being strong, and the next, she was sobbing uncontrollably in her mother’s embrace. Well, it seemed even toddlers had two faces now.

Both faces were adorable. That was probably the charm of a versatile baby; no matter how tough a little darling was, she would always turn into a crybaby the moment she saw her mother. At least now Tuantuan didn’t have to worry about hiding her swollen eyes. Crying like this, it was completely normal for her eyes to puff up like walnuts.

Deng Yuyuan looked down to check Tuantuan’s injury. The Wei family had treated it meticulously; all the dirt around the wound had been cleaned out, and medicine had been applied. As long as it didn’t get infected, there would be no major issues, but it was inevitable that the child would be in pain for a few days.

She blew gently on Tuantuan’s wound. "Pain, pain, go away! Do you feel a little better now?"

Tuantuan stopped crying, took a moment to seriously gauge her pain, and furrowed her fine little brows. She slumped distressingly against her mother’s chest. "It still hurts a little bit. Blow on Tuantuan’s forehead some more, Mommy."

Deng Yuyuan did as she was told and blew on the wound again. Tuantuan cupped her little face, beaming with joy to reveal her tiny white teeth. "Mommy is amazing! Tuantuan doesn’t hurt anymore."

Wei Yin watched enviously from the side. How on earth did she pull off this disguise, looking completely unrecognizable from her female form? "Tuantuan, could you get down from your mother for a moment and let Auntie feel her clothes?"

Tuantuan’s smiling face visibly drooped.

Wei Yin’s lips twitched. What an incredible shift in expression! She must have picked up this bad habit from her little nephew!

Tuantuan buried her head in Deng Yuyuan’s embrace and said weakly, "Tuantuan is dizzy. Tuantuan doesn’t have the strength to get down. Mommy, quickly rub Tuantuan’s chest, it’s so uncomfortable."

Wei Yin felt helpless. She couldn’t exactly fight a little cub for her mother, especially when the little cub looked genuinely pitiful.

She could only leave them be to share their mother-daughter bonding time. Tuantuan spent a long time WHIMPERING in her mother’s arms before finally dragging herself away. First, she led her mother to see that wicked Shi Tou. However, she found that the spot where the Shi Tou had been was now just empty ground; the Shi Tou had been cleared away.

"Hmm, there used to be a Shi Tou here." Tuantuan blinked her large, confused eyes and couldn’t help but call out to Wei Shu, who had been quietly trailing beside them. "Brother Xiao Shu, say something! The Shi Tou here is gone."

Wei Shu glanced at Tuantuan and delivered words devastating enough to make the little darling feel like the sky was falling. "After Tuantuan tripped over a Shi Tou, she kept banging her head against the Shi Tou, saying she was teaching the Shi Tou a lesson."

Tuantuan stared in disbelief at her favorite little companion in Beijing. "WAAH, you’re not Tuantuan’s Brother Xiao Shu. You’ve become so strange."

Wei Shu stared back at her expressionlessly. Hmph! He had been sulking alone all morning, and Tuantuan hadn’t even tried to coax him. No matter how you looked at it, he needed to make her regret it.

At this point, Deng Yuyuan truly wanted to give Tuantuan a good spanking, but the child was still injured, making it hard to actually carry it out.

"Tuantuan, you’re not allowed to say that to Brother Xiao Shu. Go down and apol—go down and play with him." Deng Yuyuan originally wanted to make her apologize, but after a second thought, she switched to a method both kids would prefer. "Are you a silly little pig? Why would you bang your head against a Shi Tou?" She reached out and flicked the back of Tuantuan’s head.

Tuantuan clutched her head and OINKED twice like a little pig. Hearing her mother’s words, she also got a little angry. "Tuantuan is not a silly little pig! Tuantuan is an orphan little pig without a mommy now!"

Wei Shu stepped forward and grabbed her hand. Tuantuan glared at him and puffed her cheeks in anger. "Tuantuan is a little pig, and little pigs only play with little pigs! Brother Xiao Shu, are you a little pig?"

Wei Shu was confused again. Deng Yuyuan was clearly the one who scolded Tuantuan, so why did he have to be the little pig?

"A little pig is born from a pig. Tuantuan, were you born from a pig?" Wei Shu deduced logically.

Tuantuan’s gaze turned terrifying. GRRR, that detestable Brother Xiao Shu had successfully struck a nerve! "A little pig can also be born from a human! Brother Xiao Shu, you’re so uneducated, how scary. Look, a little pig like Tuantuan was born from my mommy. Don’t say such wrong things in the future, shame on you."

No one could reason with the little darling, because she operated entirely on her own logic. The fierce Tuantuan had already transformed into a vicious little pig. If Wei Shu didn’t admit he was a little pig, she would refuse to play with him!

Wei Shu... Wei Shu couldn’t bring himself to say it. Tuantuan was still young, but he was already a little boy with pride. Saying that would be far too embarrassing.

Deng Yuyuan poked the back of Tuantuan’s head again. "Alright, alright, stop giving your Brother Xiao Shu a hard time. Go play with him, but absolutely no running. Go back inside and play with your toys. Rest well and recover. If you get hurt again, it might leave a scar that won’t ever fade."

Tuantuan replied loudly, "Then, even if Tuantuan gets lost in the future, Mommy will be able to find Tuantuan using this scar!"

Deng Yuyuan sighed helplessly. This little cub was daydreaming again. How did she give birth to such an optimistic little apple? She didn’t take after her mother or her father.

"No way. If this scar is left behind, it’ll be too big, and you’ll look ugly wearing dresses in the future. More importantly, just like Tuantuan could recognize Mommy at a glance today, Mommy can also recognize Tuantuan in all forms at a glance. I don’t need a scar to find you." Deng Yuyuan was genuinely afraid that if she didn’t explain things clearly, the little cub would start picking at the wound to manufacture her own scar. After all, the world of a little cub was bizarre; they often did foolish things with the best of intentions.

Tuantuan chuckled cheerfully and tried to cup her face again, but Wei Shu still hadn’t let go of her hand. Consequently, she just gripped Wei Shu’s small hand and used it to cup her own little face together. "Hehe, then if Tuantuan turns into a little piece of chicken poop, will Mommy still be able to recognize Tuantuan and keep loving Tuantuan?"

No, the fragile mother-daughter bond between them could not withstand such a test.

A voice screamed in her mind, "???!!! What kind of dangerous thing are you thinking about?! Hurry up and agree with her! Quick, say yes!"

"Tuantuan, you won’t turn into a little piece of chicken poop," Deng Yuyuan sighed.

Tuantuan scratched her little cheek with her free hand, looking somewhat bashful. "Tuantuan forgot! Hehe, Mommy is so smart to know that Tuantuan can’t turn into a little piece of chicken poop."

Wei Shu turned his head in shock and stared at her, his eyes instantly turning red. No matter how many times this happened, he still felt aggrieved, a lump of frustration clogging his chest. When he pointed out that little pigs were born from pigs just moments ago, Tuantuan had definitely not reacted like this!

On what grounds?! Why was he being treated so differently?!

He really wanted to disregard his image and howl at the sky just once to air out all the injustice and grievances he had suffered. Next time they played house, he was going to be the Chief Justice!
