Even though Pei Jing is young, he is still quite vigilant.
If a random stranger appeared outside and asked to hug him, he would surely refuse without a second thought.
But if it’s someone he knows, that’s a different story.
Just like now.
After hearing Shen Yueyue’s words, Pei Jing showed no resistance, flashed a sweet smile at Shen Yueyue, and ran towards her.
When Pei Jing reached Shen Yueyue, she scooped him up in a hug.
"Oh my! I haven’t seen Little Jing for a while, it seems like he has grown taller and a bit heavier."
Pei Jing was even more delighted upon hearing this.
Children eagerly anticipate growing up, so when someone says they’ve grown, there’s an instinctive joy.
Jiang Ran watched Pei Jing from the side, feeling a bit sentimental, but ultimately said nothing more.
Even if she were to tell Pei Jing now that childhood is the best time, and that growing up means facing many responsibilities and life’s challenges, he wouldn’t understand.
On the contrary, he would think that growing up is even better.
Because growing up means being able to decide for oneself, doing whatever one wants.
Shen Yueyue has a childlike personality, so when she plays with Pei Jing, there is no generational gap.
The whole room was filled with their laughter and playful noise.
Just listening to these sounds brings joy to anyone.
Truly, such pure laughter is the most infectious to those around.
It wasn’t until Pei Jing didn’t want to play anymore and ran off to chase the cat, that Shen Yueyue moved closer to Jiang Ran and spoke softly.
"Sister Ranran, do you think that holding Little Jing for so long might..."
At this point, Shen Yueyue paused.
Not only that, her cheeks also turned a bit red.
Jiang Ran was listening attentively to Shen Yueyue, but suddenly she stopped talking.
Jiang Ran looked at Shen Yueyue curiously, not quite understanding why she stopped mid-sentence.
But when she met Shen Yueyue’s gaze, Jiang Ran, who initially didn’t understand, finally got it.
Even though she understood, Jiang Ran was still a bit surprised.
"Didn’t you just get married? You’re thinking about having kids already?"
Shen Yueyue and Chen Bing haven’t known each other for very long, their marriage happened quickly.
After getting married, shouldn’t they enjoy some time as a couple? Why rush into having children?
But Shen Yueyue was full of conviction, "Since we’re married, of course we should have kids! Sooner or later, we’re going to have them. If I have them earlier, I might end up like you, Sister Ranran!"
"Like me?"
Jiang Ran looked at Shen Yueyue, perplexed, not quite getting what she meant.
"Yes! Like you, Sister Ranran. Look, you’re still so young, and Little Jing is already this big. If you two go out together, and you don’t say you’re his mom, people might even think you’re his sister!"
That’s true.
Nowadays, it’s not uncommon for sisters to be ten or twenty years older than their brothers.
But...
Various thoughts swirled in her mind, but in the end, she didn’t voice them.
Deciding whether to have children early or not is like knowing the warmth and coolness of the water you drink.
She felt they should enjoy their time as a couple first, but not everyone would think the same way.
