Chapter 49 - 49 A Knock on the Head_l
Bai Susu was delighted to see Ye Fan return home.
After all, without Ye Fan at home, she was alone with four little kids, and of course, two round and rolling robots.
However, when Ye Fan wasn’t at home, she did miss him a bit.
Even though the round robots automatically played TV for her and chatted with her, she still felt a sense of longing.
When Ye Fan entered the room, he saw Bai Susu just as she was looking at him.
“You’re back, how’s the house looking?” Bai Susu asked as she looked at Ye Fan.
But judging by Ye Fan’s expression, it must have been pretty good.
“It’s pretty good, we can move in a few days, but of course, I’ll go check it out again tomorrow, see if there’s any place that needs tweaking, especially since we have children, and yours, to see if there’s anything that needs changing,” Ye Fan said.
The moving process was also quite quick.
It would be settled in just a few days, and tomorrow, he would find a secluded place to release Bai Qi and Zhuge Liang first, and then help check if the villa needed any fixes.
Some places still needed to be paid attention to.
It would make moving in a bit easier after all.
“Okay, as long as you’re handling it, I’m completely at ease,” Bai Susu said with a smile, her eyes filled with determination.
Of course, with Ye Fan around, she truly felt at ease.
Ye Fan was more thoughtful than she was when it came to planning things.
Having someone so reliable was truly wonderful.
She now cherished this even more.
“Look at you, sweet-talking like you’ve had sugar, so sweet,” Ye Fan said with a laugh.
This girl had learned to say nice things to please him.
She really was amazing!
She wasn’t like this in the past.
Indeed, she had changed, becoming better and better.
“Of course, haha, you better start cooking, I’m starving,” Bai Susu said.
Initially, she wanted to cook, but she was a bit worried about the children.
Therefore, she didn’t go ahead with it.
Besides, she wasn’t sure when Ye Fan would be, and calling him might disturb him.
This made her quite conflicted.
Nevertheless, she did prepare the rice.
Now, all that was left was to stir-fry some dishes.
“Alright, you rest for a bit, I’ll go cook. I bought some beef and vegetables, and when I came back, I put them in the kitchen, I’ll start cooking,” Ye Fan said and turned away from Bai Susu’s bedroom, heading to the kitchen to begin washing meat and vegetables.
Looking at the rice in the rice cooker, his eyes were filled with tenderness.
This girl was always so considerate.
After washing the vegetables, Ye Fan began slicing the meat and vegetables.
With the basic chef skills granted by the System reward, Ye Fan wasn’t worried at all. He knew just by looking at the vegetables what and how to cook.
Bai Susu, hearing the sound of chopping from the kitchen, had the corner of her left mouth slightly curled up, revealing a hint of sweetness.
Actually, life was quite blissful this way.
She had begun to covet this kind of life a bit.
Looking at the four little ones, love filled Bai Susu’s eyes.
She loved the children, and she had also fallen in love with Ye Fan.
“Your dad is a wonderful and outstanding person. When you grow up, you should learn from him, okay, babies?” Bai Susu told the four little ones.
“Oh—”
The four little ones looked at Bai Susu, pouting and cooing constantly, their clear eyes reflecting Bai Susu’s image. Their tender little cheeks were so chubby and adorable!
Bai Susu reached out, grabbed a towel from the side, and started wiping the drool off the little ones.
Looking at their mouths, their pink little tongues were pressed against their gums as if they were about to teethe, but no teeth tips were in sight yet.
However, it’s normal—babies usually start teething around five or six months, and hers were just over a month old. They wouldn’t be sprouting teeth this early.
But she had heard that some early bloomers could begin teething around four months, yet even that was still quite early.
Bai Susu wasn’t overly concerned with this matter; she had recently noticed that her babies’ eyelashes were slowly growing longer and were now like little brushes.
Still pretty, though.
Looking at the babies’ hair, she recalled that the first hair, known as lanugo, should be shaved and saved.
Bai Susu thought that maybe tomorrow or sometime soon, she should trim the babies’ hair.
Right now, their hair wasn’t growing in that well—it was somewhat fine.
She had heard that cutting it a few times should help.
She would discuss it with Ye Fan later and maybe take the babies to get a haircut tomorrow.
Bai Susu looked outside; the sky was getting tired.
With the arrival of autumn, night was falling a bit faster.
Soon, Bai Susu smelled the familiar aroma of food.
So fragrant!
She felt that Ye Fan had spoiled her taste buds; in the future, aside from the dishes Ye Fan cooked, it would be hard for her to enjoy other food as much.
While Bai Susu was daydreaming, Ye Fan walked in.
Seeing Bai Susu zoning out, he lightly tapped her head.
What was this girl thinking about?
Why was she spacing out?
“What are you thinking about, daydreaming like that?” Ye Fan said.
“I was just thinking about whether the babies need a haircut. Their hair quality seems a bit poor, you know. I’ve heard from the elderly that if a child’s hair is not good, cutting it several times can improve it,” Bai Susu explained, looking at Ye Fan earnestly.
“Indeed, I’ll call a barber to come over to the house. It’s getting dark, and it’s not safe to go out. The kids are still too young, so we shouldn’t go out late at night,” Ye Fan pondered and then said.
He knew a few barbers—he could call and see if someone could provide a home service, and if need be, he would pay a bit extra.
It was already dark, and the children were very young. Going out might frighten them, and should anything happen, it would be even more…
Thus, to be safe, it was better to have the barber come to the house.
As for tomorrow, he had other things to do and wasn’t very reassured.
“Really, that’s great!” Bai Susu said happily.
Ye Fan was clever indeed.
She wondered why she hadn’t thought of calling in a barber.
Hehe, with this matter resolved, Bai Susu felt much happier in an instant.
Then, the two sat down at the dining table and enjoyed their meal.
“Ye Fan, how do the robots, Round and Rolley, replenish their energy? I’ve never seen it happen. Do they replace batteries, or do they charge? But I’ve never seen either,” Bai Susu spoke while eating.
It really was curious.
Ye Fan had also asked the System about this.
The System replied that Round and Rolley had built-in energy chips that could last several decades, so there was no need to worry about power.
But how should he explain this to Bai Susu?
Should he just tell her straight out?
“Actually, Round and Rolley are highly advanced, what you might call ‘black’ technology. They come with energy chips that last a long time, so there’s no need to worry,” Ye Fan said.
He didn’t specify exactly how many years they would last; he was afraid it might scare Bai Susu.
“Oh, is that so!”
