This scene made Chris, who originally planned to rush back to Hartanto's house, couldn't take it anymore.
He immediately walked in front of Merry, rolled his eyes at Samuel and said loudly, "Merry has just returned, why are you always so angry?"
"Chris is right, Merry is very wise and she also brought a present for little Lian. Sam, you're too strict with your own daughter."
Tom's voice made Samuel sigh and touch his forehead.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong. You may go, but before eight o'clock in the evening, you must return home on time!"
In the Hiroshi family, if Samuel played a bad father figure, then Erika would be a loving mother.
She stepped forward with a smile and pushed Merry away. "Merry, just go if you want, you haven't met him yet, right? Your father has been angry a lot lately, ignore him."
"Thank you mom!"
Merry smiled for a moment and kissed her mother's cheek.
Before Lilia left, she also promised Samuel that she would send the little girl back safely before eight o'clock in the evening.
On the way to the Widjaya family's house, Merry thought about taking the same car as Lilia, but because there was a stern and cold guard named Jean Widjaya who happened to be riding in the same car, so she gave up this idea.
At this time, Merry was still in Chris' car, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were full of excitement.
Chris glanced at her while driving. "You just came back from America, are you not jet lagged?"
"I'm not sleepy at all!"
Chris pulled the corners of his mouth, and then drove carefully.
...
—At the Widjaya Family home.
Now Lian is almost two years old and he spent most of his time at the Widjaya family home with James and Irene.
Lilia and Jean had also lived in the house, even if they occasionally returned to Lakeside Villa, they would not be separated from Lian for too long.
When Merry got out of the car, she followed Chris with her small suitcase.
She took two steps, her big eyes rolled around. Then she covered the corner of her mouth with one hand, and asked suspiciously, "Brother, are you thinking of something?"
She didn't know if it was an illusion or not.
Since today's lunch, she had the feeling that Chris looked worried.
Chris stopped, saw Merry's curious expression on the side, and smiled, "Nothing, really."
"Oh ..."
Merry looked at him eagerly, and finally entered the house running.
Her brother didn't want to talk to her anymore, and she could feel it!
At this time, at two in the afternoon, James was sitting in the living room carrying Lian in one hand, and wrote with a brush in the other.
Lilia and Jean went inside first, while Merry followed behind them.
Hearing the voice, James raised his head. Before speaking, he saw Merry's figure busy looking around the room.
"Who is that little girl? Is that Merry?"
Merry stood still, grinning. "Hello, uncle, I just came back today."
"Hurry up and sit down." James greeted her and stood holding Lian.
And when Lian saw Lilia, he stretched out his short, fat hand, and shouted softly, "Ma.. Ma, hug…"
Hearing that voice, Merry immediately cupped her cheeks with both hand. Lian's tiny face made her fall in love. "Soooo cute!"
When those words came out, she rushed forward, ran to Lilia's side, bent down and leaned in front of Lian. "Lian, it's me your sister!"
Chris, the godfather of Lian. "..."
Lilia hugged Lian in her arms, lowered her head and kissed the boy's tender cheek. "Lian, she is your sister Merry!"
"Shistel!" Lian shouted with his short, fat hands wrapped around Lilia's neck.
Merry stomped her foot in joy, touched Lian's chubby cheek for a moment, and squeezed his fat hand for a while.
Too cute!
He is also very handsome!
Despite his chubby little face, the outline of his eyebrows and eyes looked very similar to his parents.
His big eyes were black, and his eyelashes were like tiny fans, flickering and making everyone's heart melt.
"Lian, hug..."
Merry opened her arms, studying the boy's language and movements, waiting expectantly from Lian to respond.
Lian looked at her, and after a long time, he opened his little hands shyly.
"Oh, my little Lian… let big sister kiss you!"
Merry has no experience interacting with children in her life.
All of her current actions merely came from her instinct.
Lian was too handsome, he was like a porcelain doll carved from pink jade.
She picked up Lian and kissed his face four or five times uncontrollably.
How to put it…
She suddenly wants to have a baby too!
Even though Lian was young, he was already this cute!
After being kissed on the face, he dangled in Merry's arms, and the little voice sounded like he was protesting. "Ughhh, no, ughhh…"
"How cute you are….!" Merry was even more exasperated, and then she met Lian's eyes again, licked the corners of her mouth, and moved her face. "One more kiss!"
This scene made Chris dumbfounded.
He didn't expect the little girl to like children so much.
"Ughhh…!" Lian's little mouth squirmed twice, his wine-like eyes caught Chris' figure, and he immediately extended his hand towards him.
Chris stepped forward, hugged Lian, and made the boy laugh.
On the other hand, when Lilia and Jean sat together, they saw James still holding the brush in his hand.
Lilia couldn't help but laugh. "Brother, it's too soon to tell him to learn about brushes, he might not be able to understand it."
James turned the brush in his hand, and said with a proud expression. "Our family's descendant is very smart, he must understand!"
This incident was a coincidence.
On September 15 last year, on the day when Lian was one year old, James and Irene especially wanted to see what Lian would look like in the future. [1]
Perhaps, because of their high expectations for the boy, they provided more than 20 objects for Lian to choose.
One of the objects is a million cash in the center of the table, this item is very conspicuous.
According to James, if Lian chooses cash, it means that he will definitely have a lot of money in the future and become an expert in making money!
As a result, the design is so meticulous, but small changes occur when Lian undergo this exam.
Among the twenty objects, Lian crawl and finally choose a brush that is placed in the corner.
At that time, he was very persistent in achieving these brushes, totally ignoring everything around him.
Including when he climbed up the thick pile of cash, he kicked it with both feet.
Since then, because Lian took the brush, James ordered many brush sets.
Regardless of whether Lian could understand it or not, he always introduced various brushes throughout the day.
Hearing this, Lilia turned her gaze to look at Lian who was in Chris' arms. "Lian particularly liked the brush, and I do not know what he would do once he grows up!"
Does he want to be a painter?
At this time, no one probably would have thought that when he grows up, Lian might like to paint but not be traditional painter. Maybe he would become a face sketch painter for Indonesia's leading criminal investigation team and heir to the Widjaya family!
[1] For the Chinese, they have a tradition called Tso Tsoo Tse to celebrate a baby's first birthday. The baby will be given a large tray containing certain objects. After that, the baby will be asked to choose one object on the tray.. According to their belief, the object chosen by the baby can predict the interests, careers and tendencies of the little one in the future.
