My Youth Began With Him

“I actually think that the family will have one more scapegoat if Daddy and Mommy have another baby…”

“Hahahaha… Sis, you really are smart.” Little Bean rocked back and forth with laughter.

“Aren’t I right? Haven’t you realized that Daddy and Mommy are very dependent on us? Whatever issues they cannot solve, they use us as scapegoats. For example, everyone knows how scary it is when Grandma gets angry… yet… during breakfast this morning, Mommy and Daddy sent us to the minefields without a second thought.” Pudding bit down on her lip, feeling completely wronged.

“Hm… Sis, now that I think about it, I think you’re right… ” The lightbulb in Little Bean’s head suddenly lit up.

“So, I’m actually hoping for another baby so that they can share some of our problems.” Pudding wrapped her arms around her chest, looking beyond serious.

Little Bean snapped her fingers; she had an idea.

“Sis, after hearing what you said, I just made the realization too. So, I think we need to help Daddy and Mommy make another baby… sooner. What do you say?”

“Uh… having a baby is completely up to Mommy and Daddy. How are we supposed to help?” Pudding was a bit dumbfounded.

“We can use needles to poke holes in the protective rubbers in their room… or something like that…” Little Bean said with a straight face.

Hearing this, Pudding almost choked on her own spit.

“Cough, cough, cough*”

“Sis, are you all right?” Little Bean seemed to not have realized what she’d just said.

“Little Bean, why don’t you just electrocute me to death with your words? I regret talking to you.” Pudding sighed.

“But what do you think about my idea?”

“Incredibly lame… I’m just wondering how you came up with such a dirty idea? No wonder both Auntie Lingling and Auntie Wei called you a little pervert. You even led Gao Boyuan to the dark side after just a few playdates. What the hell is going on in that little head of yours?” Pudding began to doubt whether she and Little Bean were born from the same mother. Maybe the nurse mixed her up with some other baby… Otherwise, why was Little Bean’s character so different from hers?

“Please… I’m just looking for a solution, alright?” Little Bean looked beyond innocent.

“But not like this… the idea is not good, not good, not feasible.” Pudding waved her hand in disapproval.

“Why not? You’re scared? You’re afraid that Mommy will beat us up?”

“Being beaten isn’t the problem. Having another baby… something like that should happen naturally. Do you think giving birth is as easy as hens laying eggs? One per day? Like a game?”

“Uh… fine, fine. I’ll stop, geez.” Little Bean pouted, feeling a bit wronged.

The topic of their parents having another baby ended right then and there.

Through Pudding’s analysis, however, Little Bean gained a new perspective on the matter. She began to look forward to her Daddy and Mommy having another baby. If they gave her a baby sister, she could pass down her clothes to the little one. If it was a little brother… Well, then he could take some of the blame for them. How perfect.

In the blink of an eye, the weekend had arrived.

Early in the morning, everyone packed their things and headed to Zhu Lingling’s home.

Zhu Lingling and Gao Ran had moved to a new home because of his job.

The three-bedroom, two-living-room, two-bath suite was sized around 180 square meters and was located in a high-class area near the City Police Bureau.

The house owners in the area were mostly dignitaries. Due to the high frequency of unexpected cases, Gao Ran and Zhu Lingling moved into the neighborhood a year ago. The inside of the house was incredibly luxurious.
