Chapter 53 Getting hurt
When the shop manager came with his cup of noodles, An Xiulan and Han Zixin were on their third round of arguments and third selection of snacks. Until now they had chosen candies and drinks, and the snacks were yet to be decided.
“Don’t mind them. They will take ten more minutes before finalizing what they want, ” Han Nanxian nonchalantly said to the woman. At this point, he could only sympathize with the shop owner.
As he was having his noodles, the door to the shop opened and in came a worried woman holding a baby in his arms.
“Do you have brand BB’s pacifier?” The woman asked, trying to calm down her crying child. However, the more she tried to calm down the child, the more he would wail.
“We have but I need a few minutes to bring it out from the storeroom, “The shop manager said and asked another worker to bring the pacifier from the store..
The woman nodded and she turned her head to look for a place to sit while trying to calm down the crying baby. But only if it was this easy.
Han Nanxian looked up to see a familiar woman with a crying baby walking to his side. He blinked then his eyes and when she glanced at him, he smiled a bit.
“Aunt Song, Hello,” Han Nanxian greeted the woman respectfully.
“Xiao Xian? How are you doing?” She asked with a soft smile? This boy was her niece’s best friend.
“I’m good. How are you?” Han Nanxian asked with a smile.
“I’m good,” She said and then she glanced at her baby who had quieted down for a moment but again started crying when Han Nanxian tried to talk to him. “Just Xiaobao being fussy. He dropped his pacifier somewhere and now I can’t calm him down.”
Han Nanxian smiled a bit but his smile was not genuine. All he could say at this moment was that all the children of the Lu family were brats. Even a baby as young as this was wailing at the top of his lungs. He never liked children except for one. Only Han was an adorable child while all the children in the world are brats. Especially this Lu Xun!
As to how he knew this boy… Lu Xun aka Xiaobao was Song Xueyun’s cousin.
“Xiaobao! Calm down. Mama is getting worried.”
The baby quieted down for a moment and when she was about to say something, he wailed at the top of his lungs again. He tried to get out of his mom’s arms and since he was fat and heavy baby, Song Yifei didn’t know when Xiaobao raised his head to hit it against the wooden table to show that he was throwing tantrums.
Xiaobao had a habit of doing the same thing on a mattress at home. But since he was a baby and didn’t know how the wood was gonna hurt his head, he went on expressing his dissatisfaction by throwing a tantrum.
But before his tender head could hit the table, a small and dainty hand came between the kid’s head and the table.
A painful wince left An Xiulan’s mouth when the fat baby’s head hit her hand and pressed against the table.
Han Zixin, who was carrying the snack packets, threw the paper bags on the floor in panic and ran to An Xiualan to check her hand. It had turned red and swollen in a matter of seconds.
“You brat!” Han Zixin glared at the fatty baby. “You hit a woman. Are you even a man? What kind of man hurts a woman?”
“A scumbag, “Han Nanxian commented amusedly and took a bite of his noodle. Now the show is getting better and better.
Han Zixin had long noticed him but he didn’t react and pretended as if he couldn’t see him.
The baby had hushed after hurting An Xiulan. When Han Zixin scolded him, the baby’s big doe eyes watered again.
“I’m sorry, “Song Yifei said as she looked at the girl’s swollen hand and then at the enraged boy tending to her hand. The shop manager came with first aid and he was blowing on her hand while applying the medicine on her red and swollen hand.
Han Zixin glared at the woman and didn’t say anything. How dare she say sorry! Couldn’t she see how his Little blockhead was in pain!
“Little blockhead, who asked you to play hero? Can’t you take care of yourself? Don’t you know there is nothing more important than yourself?” Han Zixin asked his stupid desk mate. He was so angry right now that he could beat that mother and son pair!
But if he beat those two, she was gonna get more upset than she ready was!
