Both stiffened for a moment, sitting awkwardly with Muyang in between them. Lin then quickly took the toddler in his arms. Shui wondered where to dig a hole and bury herself in it.
I didn't have to hurry that much!
Lin watched Muyang's eyes sparkle and he wrapped his chubby arms around his neck. Giggling, he squished his temple against his chin.
"Baaaaa…Haaaaa…" Little Muyang was apparently very excited to be held by Lin, slapping his palms against his jaw.
"I think he is trying to say something," he tilted his head, unaffected by him pulling and pressing his lips.
Shui forced herself to escape from the earlier embarrassment and said, "Probably, he is saying hi. He is just learning to speak a few words. For now, he can say Ma and Da."
"I see," he looked at him. "Hello."
Lin tickled him under his neck to which Muyang laughed heartily.
"You remind me of Cai when he was a toddler. Your bright eyes are just like his."
