Chapter 744: Know your son better than your father

Mu Xiaoyu almost lost her temper when she heard Li Chenxu's childish remarks, but she still gave him a big eye roll: "What are you doing? Why are you saying these things to a child? Besides, even if you said them, do you really think An'an can understand them?"

"Whether he understands it or not is another matter, but since he is my and your child, even if he doesn't understand, with his smart brain, he should be able to understand something."

As Li Chenxu spoke, his gaze remained fixed on An'an. As if he had truly hit the nail on the head, An'an stared at him blankly for a long while after hearing his words, then her lips trembled, and she suddenly burst into tears.

Don't let An'an's usual quietness fool you; when she cries now, her voice is just as loud as an adult's.

When An'an suddenly started crying, even Mu Xiaoyu was startled.

She hurriedly tried to take An'an from Li Chenxu's arms, but that childish Li Chenxu simply lifted An'an up so she couldn't reach her.

Even though the child crying his heart out is his own, Li Chenxu still has the nerve to laugh. He looked down at the anxious Mu Xiaoyu with a smile and said, "Don't worry, let's make a bet and see if An'an is really crying or just faking it."

"How could it be fake crying! Have you ever heard any child faking crying this loudly? Besides, An'an is so young, how could she possibly have the mind to fake crying! Li Chenxu, give An'an back to me right now, or I'll get angry, you know that!"

Mu Xiaoyu was really anxious. An'an had hardly ever cried before, but now that she was crying, she felt genuinely distressed and worried.

Unfortunately, Li Chenxu, who always doted on Mu Xiaoyu, did not listen to her this time and returned An'an to her. His gaze shifted from her to An'an.

He gave An'an a somewhat wicked smile and then said, "If you cry again, I won't let your mother come to see you again. If you stop crying, and we're in a good mood, we might even let you sleep with us."

In Mu Xiaoyu's opinion, how could a child as young as An'an possibly understand what Li Chenxu was saying? It was far too complicated, so she didn't take Li Chenxu's words to heart at all.

However, after Li Chenxu finished speaking, An'an, who had been crying her heart out, immediately quieted down.

The speed at which his expression changed was even faster than before.

Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu was completely stunned, and even began to doubt whether what she had just witnessed was a hallucination.

How is that possible? An'an is barely a toddler yet, how could she possibly understand what Li Chenxu was saying?

Could it be that An'an is really so smart that his waist is defying the heavens?

In a short moment, countless thoughts flashed through Mu Xiaoyu's mind, from initial excitement to calm.

She looked at An'an in Li Chenxu's arms, and after a long while, she spoke: "How do you know An'an is faking her tears?"

"How could I not know? He's my son. I know better than anyone what's going on in his mind."

It would be a miracle if Mu Xiaoyu believed him. Li Chenxu and An'an spent less time together than she did, so how could that be?

She pouted, not quite believing him: "Do you really think I'm stupid?"

"How could that be? In my heart, you are the smartest."

Li Chenxu answered immediately, very quickly, as if afraid that Mu Xiaoyu wouldn't believe him.

Seeing him like this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh again. Normally, the older someone gets, the more mature and composed they should be, but in front of her, Li Chenxu seemed to be completely reversed; he showed absolutely no signs of maturity or composure.

However, Mu Xiaoyu found Li Chenxu quite adorable despite his appearance.

So she reluctantly nodded, accepting what Li Chenxu had said. Time flew by, and it was already getting dark outside not long after they returned. However, the family was very close, and they had so much to say that they didn't think about anything else and naturally didn't realize that it was already late.

"Sir and Madam, dinner is ready. Would you like to eat now?"

Just then, a servant from the restaurant came up and asked them. Li Chenxu answered without hesitation. They had been outside for so long, and although Mu Xiaoyu had eaten a little something, it was little, and nothing outside could compare to home-cooked food.

"I'm not very hungry yet. How about we eat later? Let's give An'an some milk first, then give him a bath before we eat. Are you hungry?"

Li Chenxu wasn't particularly hungry; he was just worried that Mu Xiaoyu's body couldn't handle it. Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu was in fairly good condition, he considered for a moment, then nodded and said, "If you're not hungry right now, then do as you just said. I'm not hungry, it's okay."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu immediately smiled. She wanted to get closer to An'an. Both she and Li Chenxu were rich and could hire people to do anything, but she wasn't particularly willing, especially when it came to things like taking care of An'an.

It is said that when children are young, it is best for parents to take care of them themselves. This does not mean that parents should be with their children all the time and do everything themselves. It just means that parents should spend more time with their children, which can also enhance the relationship between parents and children.

Li Chenxu knew what Mu Xiaoyu was thinking; his philosophy on raising children was actually somewhat different from Mu Xiaoyu's.

If you were to compare the two, they would be a typical example of a strict father and a kind mother.

However, as long as Mu Xiaoyu is happy, he doesn't care about anything else. He believes that even if Mu Xiaoyu really spoils the child, their child won't be too bad.

Mu Xiaoyu has recovered a bit these past few days, so she's been breastfeeding her baby. An'an has only been breastfed very rarely since birth.

So every time Mu Xiaoyu breastfed him, An'an would get very excited. After finishing, he would hug Mu Xiaoyu tightly and wouldn't let go.

Fortunately, An'an is still young. If she were to grow up and still cling to Mu Xiaoyu like this, Mu Xiaoyu probably wouldn't be able to break free.

She and Li Chenxu carried An'an into the bathroom. The bathtub had already been filled with water by the maid, and it was full of toys that children like to float in. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were washing toys instead of giving An'an a bath.

However, Mu Xiaoyu was quite satisfied with the arrangement made by the maid. It was just a pity that An'an didn't seem to like these toys.
