Chapter 62: A picture-perfect family

“Aww, he is so cute. I also want to have a child like him.”

“Sure, find a cute husband first.”

Nana smiled at the little bun. His big, bright black eyes mesmerized her. His smile was like it could melt anyone’s heart in pure joy.

She asked, “What is his name?”

“Peng Xiaosi.”

“Aboo boo boo ba ba…”, he muttered something in his baby language.

She chuckled. She started cradling him softly from side to side. Peng Xiaosi was loving every second of it.

Just then the secretaries suddenly became quiet. Nana slightly knitted brows feeling the abrupt silence.

She turned to look at the source of it and said, “Mr. Liu.”

He just entered when he saw all his secretaries gathered around a certain desk. Assistant Xin was behind him with Han Ru.

“En.”

He was staring at the child in her arms.

Peng Meixiu explained, “Sorry sir. Today my husband and in-laws weren’t there to care of him so I had to bring my son here. I’ll make sure he doesn’t disturb anybody.”

He slightly nodded and acknowledged it. But he kept staring at him. Peng Xiaosi also joined the staring contest with him. He looked at him intently with his bright, clear eyes.

Nana watched their almost nonexistent, silent interaction. But looking at Liu Jinhai, she guessed something.

“Do you want to hold him?”

Liu Jinhai was surprised and slightly widened his eyes.

Peng Meixiu wanted to faint. The CEO holding my son? Although I can understand. He is just too cute to be resisted. Good work Nana!

“Sure sir, why not?”

Assistant Xin’s mouth twitched. The cold, hard boss holding a fragile being. Han Ru was excited.

He cleared his throat, “I-I don’t know how to hold a baby.”

Nana said, “Ah really, there is nothing to be scared of. Here, I will tell you.”

He slowly went and stood in front of her.

“Okay, hold his neck gently with your right hand and balance his body with your left. He is still small so he cannot hold onto his neck by himself. So, we have to do it whenever we take him in our arms.”

Liu Jinhai raised his eyebrow.

Peng Meixiu said, “Wow, you know how to handle babies.”

She smiled, “I have taken care of my brothers when they were babies too. So, I learned it at that time.”

He took the baby in his arms. He was still a little nervous.

It was almost magical. Both didn’t realize that while Liu Jinhai was holding Peng Xiaosi’s neck, he unconsciously didn’t let go of Nana’s hand. He was tightly clutching her fingers. In a sense, they were both holding him.

But everybody else noticed that. They squealed seeing such a scene before them. Assistant Xin and Han Ru widened their eyes.

Peng Xiaosi giggled in his arms. He touched his chin with his tiny fingers. A gentle smile bloomed on Liu Jinhai’s face. Nana tickled him with her other hand. He laughed, and with his other hand, he touched her cheek.

At that moment, Liu Jinhai and Nana looked at each other. Both were smiling and looking fondly at Peng Xiaosi.

The rest of the crowd was amazed. When have they seen their boss smiling so gently? It’s like flower petals are showering from above. And the way they are standing so close to each other, they just look like a couple.

Assistant Xin and Han Ru, Peng Meixiu and all the other secretaries couldn’t help but think,

‘What a picture-perfect family.’

‘Everything just looks so…right.’

‘Even the baby is touching and looking at them like how a child recognizes his parents.’

Nobody knew why but they got a little emotional.

One of the secretaries silently clicked a picture of this beautiful scene.

Peng Xiaosi then started to furrow his brows.

Nana said, “Ah, I think he is hungry.”

Peng Meixiu said, “Yes, it’s time to breastfeed him now.”

Liu Jinhai nodded and carefully handed him over to his mother.

He flailed his hand towards them as if saying goodbye.

They chuckled and waved their hands.

He said to Peng Meixiu, “If you face any problem again like today, you can bring him in the office. I won’t mind.”

She widened her eyes, “Y-yes, sir. Thank you so much.” She didn’t believe she got a leeway from her boss. She sobbed. Peng Xiaosi, you are such a lucky charm for me!

“Assistant Xin. I wanted to discuss some work with you. Is it okay now?”, Nana asked.

“Ah, sure Miss Nana. Let’s go-“, he accidentally glanced towards Liu Jinhai and found his expression a little odd.

It felt like he was sulking…or sad?

“Um…since we are already here, let’s sit in sir’s office inside.”, he suggested.

Is it okay to bother him? It’s a small matter anyway, she thought.

“And, he also wanted to discuss the progress.”

“Oh, okay.”

Assistant Xin then again glanced at him. There was no trace of that sad, dejected expression anymore.

Was I imagining it?

As planned, Huian came to Liu Corps today to look for someone who can observe all the paperwork that Liu Jinhai gets.

She came to the top floor hoping she might find one of his secretaries to do this job.

“Please move aside whoever is there in the front. I can’t see anything.”, a nervous voice came from her side.
