The Heir is Here: Quiet Down, School Prince!

That night, after playing with the babies for a while, An Xiaxia went to bed in exhaustion.

Sheng Yize was very happy about that.

Finally, no public square dancing!

Jubilant, Mr. Sheng tidied up the entire house, humming a tune as he worked. He then played building blocks with Cola and Pepsi.

Of course, what he loved the most was pushing everything over whenever the two kids had gained some height with the building blocks.

Cola and Pepsi were almost in tears.

At about nine o’clock, Pepsi looked around and suddenly realized that her mama wasn’t there.

Scratching her head, she threw herself into Sheng Yize’s arms. “Papa…”

“Yes? What now? Hungry again?” Sheng Yize asked mildly.

“Papa… call… Little Bai…” Pepsi gestured with all four limbs and Sheng Yize immediately understood what she wanted to say.

The little thing wanted to give Si Bai a video call!

He wouldn’t allow it!

“No. You have to go to bed early tonight,” Sheng Yize said with a straight face.

Pepsi pursed her lips and her eyes went teary. She then lay on his shoulder and began to sob.

Sheng Yize was helpless when she was in tears. He couldn’t console her no matter what he said and he didn’t want to wake up An Xiaxia. In the end, he had no choice but to call the Si family.

The video call soon went through.

“Pepsi! Pepsi! This is Little Bai!” Si Bai’s young voice came from the other end. He was surprised when he saw Sheng Yize’s face on the screen. “Good evening, Father-in-law.”

The corner of Sheng Yize’s mouth twitched. “How many times do I have to tell you: don’t call me Father-in-law! I haven’t given you consent to marry my daughter!”

Si Bai pursed his lips. “But…”

“No buts. Say what you have to say, or I’ll hang up. Pepsi needs her sleep.”

“Father-in-law, you have to promise not to get angry with me if I tell you.” Si Bai blinked.

“Tell me.”

Si Bai smiled. “Pepsi has already agreed to marry me.”

Sheng Yize: !!!

“There.” Si Bai showed him something proudly. “This is our marriage certificate!”

He had drawn it with crayons at nursery school the other day. It said “Little Bai and Pepsi are married!” over the top, which, despite the childish handwriting, looked very sincere.

Sheng Yize smirked. “You’re not going to swindle my daughter away with some random drawing!”

Si Bai pointed at a lower corner. “But Pepsi has signed it!”

Sheng Yize glanced at it and was speechless.

At the bottom of that drawing was a little handprint. Judging from its size, it could belong to no one else but his daughter Pepsi!

“We made this deal when we met last time!” Si Bai said proudly.

That brat!

Sheng Yize was very frustrated.

Pepsi went up to him and babbled at the screen.

“Brother…”

“Pepsi, good girl. Not ‘brother’ now. Call me ‘honey’!” Si Bai instructed in a serious tone.

Pepsi obeyed immediately. “Ho’ey!”

Sheng Yize pressed his hand to his chest.

Oh, what heartache.

“Good girl, Pepsi! I’ll go see you during the Spring Festival! I’ve prepared a lot of gifts for you!”

Pepsi giggled.

The two went on prattling like this for a while until Si Bai cleared his throat and said, “Now, it’s time for your milk and bed. Good night.”

He then kissed the screen.

Sheng Yize’s eyes opened wide. Shit. Children nowadays were so good at this…

In his arms, Pepsi blew a kiss at the screen in return, then said in her baby voice, “Ho’ey… nite…”

Crack —

Sheng Yize’s heart wasn’t aching anymore. It was in pieces!
