TGLC Chapter 49.4

After checking in at the front desk, Xie Qingyu took her child upstairs.

The hotel had a great location and beautiful scenery. Standing in the room, with the window open, she could see the horizon where the sea met the sky, the azure sky, the white clouds, and the deep blue sea.

Breathing in the salty sea breeze, Xie Qingyu felt as if all her troubles had vanished at that moment.

Just as she was enjoying the gentle sea breeze, Little Zhuzhu was already eagerly grabbing her swimming ring and wanting to go out.

Her big, watery eyes were full of anticipation; she was practically begging for a yes.

“Mommy, don’t just stand by the window anymore, let’s go out and play!”

“…Um…baby…” Actually, Mom was a little tired.

Before she could even finish speaking, the little girl stared wide-eyed at her and asked incredulously, “Mommy, don’t tell me you don’t want to go out?”

She really didn’t want to go anymore.

She had walked from morning to afternoon.

She felt that her legs were a little numb, and all she wanted to do was lie down and relax.

Zhuzhu complained, “I should have brought Dad along, so he could have taken me to the beach.”

Xie Qingyu tried to get information out of her: “Did your dad come too?”

Little Zhuzhu was surprised that her mother had guessed it. Her eyes widened immediately, and she asked in surprise, “Mom, how did you know?”

Silly girl, it’s because you let it slip.

Xie Qingyu thought to herself, then asked, “Where is your daddy now?”

Zhuzhu shook her little head: “I don’t know where he is. So now you have to take me out to play.”

“If I had known you would get tired so easily, I should have asked Dad to come with me. Now, Dad is nowhere to be found, and Mom, you’re not taking me out to play.”

Actually, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to let Aunt He take Zhuzhu out, but Aunt He is already over forty years old, so it would be better for her to stay at home and look after Zhuzhu. Chasing after the lively little one would be a bit too much for her.

Xie Qingyu was worried.

After thinking for a moment, she sighed resignedly and led Zhuzhu to find Yan Zhen and the others.

The sun had already dimmed on the beach, and many children were building sandcastles on the sand.

When Zhuzhu saw a place with lots of children, she wanted to go and play with them.

So as soon as she got closer, she let go of her mother’s hand.

A brother and sister were building a sandcastle. After Zhuzhu ran over, she stood there watching for a while, then asked the little girl with apple-shaped cheeks in a denim skirt, somewhat expectantly, “Can I play with you?”

The brother and sister were quite skilled; their sandcastle was tall and beautiful.

However, this little girl was clearly not an easy child to get along with. Afraid that Zhuzhu would cause trouble, she refused without hesitation: “No, you’ll break our sandcastle.”

Rejected, Little Zhuzhu was a bit disappointed and turned back to her mother, looking somewhat unhappy.

Seeing that Zhuzhu was unhappy, Chongchong asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

Zhuzhu replied, “I wanted to build a sandcastle with them, but they didn’t want to.”

The little girl pouted, looking rather pitiful, which was quite heartbreaking to see.

Yan Zhen couldn’t help but laugh and said, “If the little kids don’t want to play with you, then you can build one with Chongchong.”

As she spoke, she handed the unopened sand-building mold to Chongchong.

Chongchong took it, then took Zhuzhu’s hand and led her to play.
