After eating his fill, he touched his small belly.
"Mommy, I'll go get dessert," Xiao Yining said politely.
"Alright, baby, be careful," An Ziqi advised him.
Simon observed the natural and warm interaction between An Ziqi and Xiao Yining from the side.
The big and little together didn't feel out of place at all. If he didn't know better, he would think they were mother and son.
"He seems very dependent on you."
"I really like Ningning," An Ziqi confessed, biting her lip. She had long decided, regardless of her relationship with Xiao Moli, she could never let go of Xiao Yining.
Unless one day his biological mother returned and Xiao Yining didn't want her anymore.
While they were talking, Xiao Yining came running back, puffing hard, carrying a small tray with three pieces of cake on it.
He placed the cake on the table, courteously handing the first piece to An Ziqi, and then served a piece to Simon.
"Round two," he declared.
