"Little Xuanxuan, haven't you had breakfast?"
Little Xuanxuan shook his head. His small body slumped on the sofa as he directed Xu Qingqing without a hint of shame.
"No. Auntie, go cook for me."
Lu Chuanbai wanted to help Xu Qingqing out and offered voluntarily, "Can I make sandwiches?"
Hearing that there would be sandwiches, Little Xuanxuan's eyes lit up. He started counting on his fingers as he made demands.
"I want luncheon meat, bacon, and chicken chops in my sandwich. No vegetables."
Hearing how picky Little Xuanxuan was, Xu Qingqing tried to persuade him. "Eating only meat won't do. You need to have a combination of vegetables and meat for better nutrition."
Hearing Xu Qingqing suggest that he eat vegetables, Little Xuanxuan instantly got angry and started throwing a tantrum.
"I don't eat vegetables! I just want to eat meat!"
"My mom said only by eating meat can I grow tall! I hate vegetables!"
Watching Little Xuanxuan rolling around on the sofa and shouting loudly, Xu Qingqing and Lu Chuanbai glanced at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
Lu Chuanbai endured the impulse to spank the child and compromised. "Okay, okay. I'll make you meat sandwiches without vegetables."
Xu An'an, standing beside Lu Chuanbai's leg, held her bunny doll and looked at Little Xuanxuan unhappily. She still resented the fact that Little Xuanxuan had scared her with a fake spider.
Little Xuanxuan was so annoying. He was nothing like her brother.
Lu Chuanbai bent down and ruffled Xu An'an's hair. "An'an, do you have any requests?"
Xu An'an deliberately said loudly, "An'an has no requests. I'll eat anything, whether it's vegetables or bread!"
"Only those who don't eat vegetables won't grow tall!"
Hearing this, Little Xuanxuan started throwing another tantrum. "How dare you say I won't grow tall!"
"You're the one who won't grow tall. My dad said women can never be as good as men!"
Hearing Little Xuanxuan's words, Xu Qingqing was a bit shocked. She pulled Xu An'an into her arms.
"Xuanxuan, that's not right. Boys and girls are equally great."
Just hearing this, Xu Qingqing could already tell that Little Xuanxuan's father was a male - chauvinist.
"What my dad said is right!" Little Xuanxuan shouted back.
"What my mom said is right!" Xu An'an shouted back without backing down.
"An'an, don't quarrel."
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Xu Qingqing quickly pulled Xu An'an aside to avoid Little Xuanxuan.
Xu An'an was pulled behind the screen by Xu Qingqing to avoid the camera.
Xu An'an looked extremely aggrieved.
"What he said is wrong!"
Xu Qingqing lovingly hugged Xu An'an in her arms. Xu Qingqing's parenting philosophy was gender equality. Boys and girls were the same.
What Little Xuanxuan had said just now was a huge blow to Xu An'an.
"Of course it's wrong. I think An'an is much better than Little Xuanxuan. You're more polite and more sensible." Xu Qingqing seriously comforted Xu An'an.
Xu An'an felt a bit better. She pouted and said, "When can we go pick up brother? I miss him so much."
"After the show is filmed." Xu Qingqing comforted Xu An'an and asked her to be patient. She couldn't help but sigh again in her heart.
Fortunately, both kids were little angels. Otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to handle it.
By the time Xu An'an's mood was sorted out, Lu Chuanbai had already made the sandwiches and served them on the table.
"Xu Qingqing, An'an, come and have breakfast."
Little Xuanxuan's sandwich had a whole piece of luncheon meat and several slices of bacon, making the bread bulge high.
Only then was Little Xuanxuan satisfied. He grinned and took big bites. Half - way through, he got thirsty. He pushed away the milk beside him and started shouting again.
"I don't drink milk. I want to drink Coke!"
Xu Qingqing gently coaxed him. "Drinking milk is good for your health. Don't you want to grow tall? Drinking milk can make you taller."
"I don't drink!" Little Xuanxuan kicked his legs under the table.
"I always drink Coke at home!"
Seeing Little Xuanxuan throwing a tantrum, Xu Qingqing tried to reason with him, but Little Xuanxuan wouldn't listen. He just kept shouting that he wanted to drink Coke.
Xu Qingqing had no choice. Since there was no Coke at home, she was about to get up and go buy some.
Lu Chuanbai, with a poker - face, pressed Xu Qingqing back into her seat, put on his coat, and said, "I'll go buy it."
Wangcai, the puppy that had hidden itself because of the stranger, saw Lu Chuanbai about to go out and wanted to follow him out to play and relieve itself.
Wangcai was a very smart puppy. It never pooped or peed at home. It always went to the toilet when it went for a walk.
It crawled out from under the living - room table, shook its fluffy little head, and followed behind Lu Chuanbai. It gently pawed at Lu Chuanbai's leg, also wanting to go out with him.
This time Lu Chuanbai was just going out to buy something. He gently pushed Wangcai back with his foot.
"Wangcai."
"There's a puppy!"
Little Xuanxuan, sitting on the chair, saw the puppy. His eyes instantly widened. He slid off the chair and reached out to grab the collar on Wangcai's neck.
"Puppy, don't run. Come and play with me!"
Wangcai was grabbed by the collar by Little Xuanxuan and lifted up. It could hardly breathe and was gasping for air with its tongue out.
Lu Chuanbai quickly rescued Wangcai from Little Xuanxuan's hands and seriously reminded him.
"This puppy's name is Wangcai. Pulling its collar will make it uncomfortable."
Little Xuanxuan looked at Lu Chuanbai unhappily. He had no sympathy at all and retorted angrily.
"Puppies don't have feelings!"
Lu Chuanbai was speechless. He originally didn't want to take Wangcai with him, but he was worried that Wangcai would be bullied by Little Xuanxuan if left at home.
Lu Chuanbai took out the dog leash from the shoe cabinet and put it on Wangcai's collar.
"I'm taking Wangcai for a walk to go to the toilet. I'll play with you when I get back."
After saying that, Lu Chuanbai separated Little Xuanxuan from Wangcai and took Wangcai out.
Little Xuanxuan, unhappy, also wanted to follow. Xu Qingqing quickly pulled him back and gently coaxed him, leading him to sit at the dining table.
"Little Xuanxuan, you haven't finished your sandwich yet. Finish your meal and then play with Wangcai."
"Let me pour you a glass of water first, okay?"
After saying that, Xu Qingqing went to pour water for Little Xuanxuan.
Little Xuanxuan looked extremely unhappy. He glared angrily as Lu Chuanbai took the puppy away.
Xu Qingqing brought the water to Little Xuanxuan. Little Xuanxuan angrily pushed the glass away. The glass tilted on the table, and the water spilled all over the floor.
Little Xuanxuan said angrily, "I don't want water. I only want Coke!"
Then he took big bites and finished all the sandwiches in front of him.
Xu Qingqing had to go get a rag to wipe the table. Xu An'an put down the sandwich in her hand. Pouting unhappily, she also took a tissue and went to help Xu Qingqing wipe the table.
Xu An'an angrily questioned Little Xuanxuan, "Do you treat your mom like this at home too?"
Mom wasn't a servant. Why should she be ordered around by Little Xuanxuan?
But Little Xuanxuan looked completely justified and said, "My mom always prepares all these things for me in advance. Your family doesn't have anything!"
