Chapter 503 Father and Son at Odds
The worry was unfounded. Xiao Tong was very obedient.
Whether it was during the day or at night, he did not cry.
When he was hungry, he snorted twice. He urinated a little and occasionally opened his eyes to take a look. When he looked at his mother next to him, he fell asleep peacefully.
He created little fuss, and he was a pleasant surprise to everyone.
Xiao Lingyu looked at the child lying next to her with a soft motherly glow in her eyes. From time to time, she would gently stroke the baby next to her.
She knew that the child had always been very sensible since he was young. And her mother told her in her previous life that Xiao Tong was also very smart.
However, due to his frail physique, he rarely played with other children. The other children also often mocked him. Xiao Lingyu owed Xiao Tong too much. She couldn’t make up for his weak body and sad childhood.
Now that she had a chance to start over, she would definitely let Xiao Tong grow up happily and safely.
Xiao Lingyu had a natural birth and would be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, so she did not need too many people to take care of her.
Ever since Gong Tianhao woke up, he had never left Xiao Lingyu’s side. He had always taken care of her wholeheartedly.
However, the man didn’t know how to take care of the child.
Therefore, Mother Xiao stayed behind to teach him. Gong Tianhao learned to carry the child, change diapers, and put on clothes for the child.
Gong Tianhao was a brilliant man. He picked up everything smoothly. However, when it came to learning how to take care of a child, he was clumsy.
Whenever he tried to carry the child, Xiao Tong would cry like Gong Tianhao’s arms were covered in needles.
The child was not a crier. Whenever someone else carried him, he would not cry. However, when he was placed in his father’s arms, he would cry loud enough to shake the earth.
Gong Tianhao was speechless.
Xiao Lingyun chuckled, “Brother-in-law, are there thorns in your arm? Otherwise, why would the baby cry non-stop when you carry him? The child doesn’t do that with others.”
The others covered their mouths and laughed as they said, “That’s right. The child is willing to be carried by anyone. How come when Tianhao tries to carry him, he will start to cry?”
“This is really weird.” Everyone laughed. “Why doesn’t the child want to be carried by his father?”
“Tianhao, you have to work hard! Now you have to win over your son!” The Xiao Family chuckled.
Gong Tianhao, “…” He didn’t even want to carry this little love rival who stole his wife.
Gong Tianhao noticed that whenever he tried to hug Xiao Tong, the brat would open his eyes and confirm it was him before he started to cry. Then, when Xiao Tong was rescued from his father, he would shoot Gong Tianhao a disdainful look.
‘Is that really a newborn?’ Gong Tianhao remembered the story of the reincarnation Xiao Lingyu told him. He now suspected the child was reborn just like Xiao Lingyu too. However, he had no way of verifying that.
After changing the diapers for Xiao Tong, Mother Xiao smiled and said to Xiao Tong, “Baby, you’re so obedient! You’re so sensible, and you never cry when your mother is asleep!”
Xiao Tong was really very clever. Once someone approached him, he would open his eyes. If it were someone he knew, he would twitch his mouth to smile at them. If it were a stranger, he would curl his lips and express his dissatisfaction.
The funniest thing was that whenever his father tried to lean on his mother’s side, Xiao Tong would start crying. When Gong Tianhao heard the cries, he had no choice but to get up and check on Xiao Tong. The moment Gong Tianhao came close, Xiao Tong would stop crying. When Gong Tianhao returned to his wife’s side, Xiao Tong would cry again.
Gong Tianhao was so angry that he really suspected that this child was deliberately going against him. However, since Xiao Tong was a newborn, Gong Tianhao had to endure it. Xiao Tong was his son too.
Mother Xiao smiled and said, “Tianhao, does the baby have a problem with you?”
Gong Tianhao said, “Mom, he’s only so young. Why would he have a problem with me?”
“Hmph. Little Brat, I can’t do anything to you now. When you’re older, I’ll spank your little butt.’
Mother Xiao said, “But the child is so sensible usually. He will only cry when he’s around you.” At this point, Mother Xiao thought for a while and said, “Tianhao, have you noticed that as soon as you get close to Yu ‘Er or make any intimate movements, the baby will cry?” This child was simply too smart.
Gong Tianhao smiled and said, “Mom, you’re thinking too much. It’s just a coincidence.”
At this point, he picked up the baby again.
Just as the baby was about to cry again, Gong Tianhao lowered his head and whispered to him, “If you do that, you’re going to scare your grandma.”
Xiao Tong, “…”
Grandma, I didn’t mean to do that. I swear!
