"By the way, what's the child's name?" Aunt Wu put another peeled shrimp into Lin Fan's bowl and looked up at her son.
I always call you "little baby" or "little darling". Although there is nothing wrong with that, it doesn't feel as close as calling you by your name.
"Call me Lin..." Wu Yusen's next word was already on the tip of his tongue, but he changed it and said, "Little cutie."
He couldn't guarantee that Lin Fan wouldn't have the chance to contact his parents in the future. If they found out they had the same name, they would definitely make some connections.
Lin Fan, holding the shrimp in her mouth, slowly turned her head in disbelief and looked at the guy who had just given her a new name.
John Woo smiled helplessly. Isn't there anything else he can do?
"Oh, so we call you Xiaoguai," Aunt Wu said with a smile. "You really live up to your name."
Lin Fan slowly turned his head again and looked at the smiling faces of Aunt Wu and Father Wu.
All right, Lin Xiaoguai is Lin Xiaoguai. She's better than Erya or Chunnier.
Lin Fan, oh no, the freshly baked Lin Xiaoguai finished his dinner under the considerate care of Wu Ma.
She said she had never seen such a smart, obedient, well-behaved and beautiful little girl, and she was so adorable.
He just doesn't like to talk much, maybe because he just came home and is not used to it yet. But it's not a big problem.
While cleaning the table, Mother Wu was already thinking about what delicious food to make for Xiaoguai's breakfast tomorrow morning.
Lin Fan, who had just arrived at the table, was unable to help clean up. He walked into the living room and looked around, and saw the luggage placed by the entrance.
"Shall we go to the mall now, or do you want to rest for a while first?" John Woo saw where she was looking and took the initiative to take it.
"If it's convenient, can I borrow your washing machine?" Lin Fan opened the shopping bag.
The clothes I wore before were covered in sweat and dirt. As someone with a mild mysophobia, it would be great if I could wash them.
"It's convenient, why not?" John Woo immediately understood what she wanted to do. He took the bag from her hand, walked straight to the washing machine, took out the clothes one by one, shook them and stuffed them in.
Lin Fan noticed his changed underpants and quickly reached out to grab them, rolled them up into a ball and stuffed them into the washing machine.
Now let’s not worry about whether the mixed washing is clean or not. It’s good enough if it can be washed once.
At worst, she could wash them separately again when she got back to the special affairs office.
Wu Yusen guessed from her actions what she threw in, and his smile became even wider. He pretended not to see anything and continued to put the dirty clothes into the washing machine.
"We also have a dryer at home. This bucket of clothes will be dry before bed tonight, and they've been sterilized at high temperatures, so they're guaranteed to be clean."
Lin Fan nodded seriously.
Lin Fan had taken out all of his dirty clothes, leaving only two pairs of toddler shorts in the bag. They were a set of three pairs in a box that he had bought in Gaocheng.
Wu Yusen took the new shorts out of the box, held them in his hand, and asked Lin Fan, "Shall we wash these too? That way, when you come back tonight and take a shower, you can wear them. After you take a shower, wash the new clothes and the clothes you're wearing in another bucket. Tomorrow morning, you'll have clean clothes to wear."
How could John Woo not know about Lin Fan's mysophobia?
He also knew that after she bought clothes, she would wash all the clothes before wearing them, except for her cotton coats, shoes and bags.
Lin Fan's face was burning as he looked at the shorts with a bunny pattern printed on them in his hand.
They are clearly new pants that I have never worn, so why am I feeling so shy for no reason?
Calm down, calm down. John Woo has seen it all. Lin Fan feigned composure and nodded with a straight face.
Looking at Lin Fan's red face, John Woo was already laughing in his heart, but the smile on his face did not change at all.
Seeing that it was already past 7 o'clock and not too late, he quickly greeted Wu Ma who was still busy in the kitchen and asked her to help put the clothes in the washing machine into the dryer after the washing machine finished working.
He carefully helped Lin Fan put on his coat, backpack, hat and gloves, and then took him out.
What is the difference between the Spring Festival in Ningcheng and Gaocheng?
Lin Fan looked at the bright streets and the glaring streetlights, and felt that there didn't seem to be much difference.
When the car arrived at the mall, the gorgeous appearance and beautiful neon lights instantly attracted Lin Fan's attention.
Well, there is a difference. The shopping mall in Gaocheng is not so big and does not have such beautiful lights.
I don’t know if it’s because he’s grown smaller, but Lin Fan wasn’t that interested in these things before, but now he seems to be very interested.
Could it be that not only the body has become smaller, but the head has also become smaller?
While Lin Fan was lost in thought, Wu Yusen had already carried her down. Seeing that she was still dazed and didn't know what to think, he carried her directly to the elevator.
It was not until the warm breeze from the entrance blew towards Lin Fan that she was awakened from her confusion.
She patted Wu Yusen to let him down, and then she stepped into the elevator skillfully with her short legs.
When he actually entered the mall, Lin Fan felt everything was new to him.
It’s not that she hadn’t been to better shopping malls before, but this was her first time looking at them from such a low perspective.
The smooth floor tiles easily reflected her face, making the already spacious space seem endless. The spotlights on the ceiling were like stars.
Everyone around her was much taller than her, so she had to look up to see everything, as if she had stumbled into a land of giants...
This novel experience made her curious about everything.
"Would you like to take a walk around first?" After seeing her coming up, John Woo looked left and right and felt it was very interesting.
Lin Fan thought about it and finally shook his head.
She still remembered that she had a mission to come to the mall today.
The mall usually closes around 9pm, so it's already late. Choosing clothes will definitely take quite a while.
If I don’t buy good clothes tonight, will I have to wear red tomorrow?
Lin Fan refused in his heart.
Despite her curiosity, she decided to wait until she was done shopping. If all else failed, she could ask John Woo to go shopping with her tomorrow. There were still several days left.
With their destination set, the two headed straight for the children's clothing section.
Lin Fan and Wu Yusen had never known there were so many children's clothing brands. The endless variety of brand stalls made them deeply aware of the importance people now attach to their children.
Fortunately, Lin Fan had a clear goal. While moving forward quickly, he had passed those overly childish and festive brands and finally stopped at a store.
This children's clothing store features adult clothing in a smaller format. To put it simply, they've shrunk adult clothing down to child sizes, and they also have a good selection of parent-child clothing.
In the past, Lin Fan always felt that although such clothes looked delicate on children, they somewhat lost some of their childishness.
But for her now, it is perfect.
She first chose an off-white down jacket and brown pants, changing out of her bright red coat. She then quickly picked out a few basic outfits in subdued colors.
John Woo asked the clerk to take the appropriate size directly, gestured with it briefly, and paid for it without even trying it on.
Half an hour later, they went into a store that specialized in children's underwear and bought two sets of autumn clothes and small socks.
Fortunately, I didn't need to buy the shorts. Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief when Wu Yusen checked out.
Although it was already past eight in the evening, there were still many people in the mall. After Lin Fan was bumped by two groups of people, Wu Yusen took the initiative to hold her hand.
Lin Fan was stunned, and her first reaction was: The last time someone held her hand like this was more than 30 years ago, right?
John Woo's hands are big, warm, and quite comfortable...
Fine, let him hold it. Lin Fan mercifully didn't try to shake it off.
She didn't even notice it herself, but the corners of her mouth gradually rose and she started to jump as she walked.
Not far from them, an old lady holding her grandson's hand frowned as she watched the two of them walk away.
"Hey, isn't that Yusen?" She nudged her daughter-in-law next to her.
The daughter-in-law took a look and just then, Wu Yusen turned to talk to Lin Fan, "Yes, it's him."
The aunt saw two figures, one big and one small, walking into a shop again, and hurriedly tried to chase them.
"Hey, Mom, what are you doing?" The daughter-in-law quickly stopped her.
The aunt glared at her daughter-in-law unhappily and handed her grandson's hand to her.
"Let me go see who that child is."
Dad takes his children to the mall, hahahaha.
I changed to a leg slimming exercise yesterday, but my legs are so sore today that I can't even lift them. Forget about exercising today, I'll just take a break. Hahaha
