Since it was his own child, Gu Fan naturally wanted to hold him properly.
Just as Gu Fan reached out his hand, he was intercepted halfway by Gu Xiaojin, who was fast-eyed and quick-handed.
"Come on, Xiaotian, call me sister. If you do, I'll give you candy; if you don't, I'll spank you. Remember the last time you didn't listen? I spanked you so hard you ended up crying with a runny nose and teary eyes," Gu Xiaojin said with a sinister smile, a devilish gleam in her expression.
Xiaotian's eyes revealed his fear of Gu Xiaojin, and he quickly and obediently called her "sister."
Gu Fan watched this scene unfold and immediately understood that Gu Xiaojin had bullied Xiaotian, her younger brother, many times before.
At this moment, Li Shi glanced at Gu Fan, and Gu Fan glanced back at Li Shi. Their eyes met briefly before they both awkwardly looked away.
Who would have thought, after everything they'd been through, that the one staying by Gu Fan's side would be Li Shi.
