Chapter 46: Adoption? There's no need for that!
"Hey honey, are you still at Natsu-nii's? Come back to the Manor at once."
It was half past 12 when Xiao Lang's private mobile received a call from none other than the missus.
"Is anything wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing." Sakura's sweet voice made Syaoran wish he had superpowers to immediately be transported to where his charming little wife is.
"I just called Little Muye up and asked him why he hasn't arrived yet and he said his car broke down at an exit near Shinagawa station. So I told him that I'll send someone to take care of his car but we'll pick him up so that he can join us in time for lunch."
"Alright love. Just wait for me, I'll pick you up by the driveway. Where's the kid?"
"I'm on my way to pick him up. I promised him we'll get him after an hour and I don't want him to think I lied."
"Sakura, my dear, the kid doesn't know how long an hour is. Let the elders play with him."
"No!" Syaoran cringed when Sakura's voice suddenly became high-pitched and too loud for the earpiece.
Even Natsume's mouth twitched when he heard how loud his cousin was.
"He may not know how long one hour is but he will definitely think that I've been gone much too long than he wants! How can you be so mean to him, Xiao Lang?—-" and a fret higher—-
" How can you?"
Syaoran moved the mobile away for a while to rub his throbbing ear for five seconds before placing it back again.
"No, honey, I wasn't trying to be mean…"
"Well you were mean and I don't like it!"
Natsume snickered and showed Syaoran a shooting hand signal.
He's dead meat, baby!
"Honey, honey, I wasn't trying to be mean BUT—-" he emphasized but strongly "—- that doesn't mean I am not wrong in saying something like that. I'm sorry baby. Look, I'll leave Natsume's villa now. I'll ask Ichi to bring my car up front after we get off the phone so I can get there as fast as I can. Go get Xiao Bao now."
What the heck did I do now?
Syaoran scratched his head as he turned his back on the group.
He replayed the conversation as fast as his powerful brain and eidetic memory can.
Sure that he hasn't said anything wrong, Syaoran gave up trying and just decided on doing the single right thing to do for moments like this.
"I'm sorry I made you mad. Please don't be mad at me anymore, sweetheart."
Syaoran's low and hoarse voice added much emotions to the pitiable words he had just uttered.
"... I'm not mad." She paused for a while before continuing, "not really. Just a tad annoyed. I felt like you didn't want to be with Xiao Bao!"
Syaoran pinched the bridge of his nose as he thought of the right words that will placate his cute wife.
"I'm sorry, really, if that's what it sounded like but honestly, it's not what I truly meant. Believe me Sakura. You know how much I've also came to like the little kid, right? I did tell you that last night...do you remember?"
Remembering what transpired last night during their wedding night, Sakura blushed hard.
Gosh, it's good that Xiao Lang can't see me right now!
Patting her cheek as she tried to think not of the sexy times but how afterwards, they've talked about having kids in the future and hoping that they'll be just like the adorable Xiao Bao, Sakura smiled.
"Yeah, sorry I got annoyed at you for no reason at all. Anyway, just go here immediately. I missed you so much!"
Turning his body so he is face to face with Natsume, Syaoran stuck his tongue out at him for a second before telling Sakura how much he misses her more and he'll be there to pick them up in less than 10 minutes.
Natsume suddenly made a whipping sound which earned chuckles around and making Syaoran's ear feel a bit hot.
"You're whipped! Your family's whipped!" Syaoran retorted.
"You don't want to?" the temperature dropped down and sent chills down everyone's back.
Syaoran turned to look at the speaker and he innocently rubbed his nose.
"Of course I want to be whipped, sir! It's my lifelong goal to be a whipped husband to my childhood love, Sakura, sir!"
"Serious."
"I am!" Syaoran walked up to Touya.
Touya's narrowed eyes gradually became bigger when he realized Syaoran had no intention on stopping even as he reached just two steps from him.
"What the f* are you—-"
Suddenly, Touya found himself locked in another man's embrace.
"Believe in me when I say I your sister is the only love of my life, has ever been, and will ever be."
"Get… off… me…Li...Xiao… Lang…"
Eyes like slits, smoke flaring from his nose and ears,
Touya gritted his teeth while his jaws was clenched as if his ashened face could break any minute.
"Sure, bro—-ther."
Syaoran said smoothly, the corners of his eyes crinkled as he beamed widely at Touya.
Patting his back good-naturedly, Syaoran gave him one last squeeze before letting him go and scampering off directly at the opposite side of the patio.
As much as he'd love to annoy the hell of the oh-so mightier-than-him Amamiya-Kinomoto Touya, he wouldn't dare to do too much.
After all, he is his wife's older brother.
He had at most give him some respects, right?
Crumpling the half-empty pack of cigarettes in his hand, Touya muttered curses at Syaoran before heading out of Natsume's villa.
They've discussed the plans for later, why the f* should he stay here with this stupid brother-in-law of his.
"Dude, you've totally pissed him off."
Koko guffawed just as soon as Touya seemed to be out of sight.
"Don't even think about it."
Natsume warned Koko. Who is stupid enough to play such a dirty trick to the eldest Amamiya third generation?
He glanced at the man who just did.
The stupid arrogant prick who is currently leaning back on one of the decorative columns of his villa, with a stupid, stupid, stupid smile on his face while typing something.
Natsume snorted in his mind.
Stupid Syaoran.
Stupid Sakura.
He then pulled out his mobile and typed a message himself:
"Hey babe, when are you going home? I can't take anymore of this baka-couple (A/N note: "baka" is stupid in Japanese)! Come on babe, get here sooner….."
Message sent.
After 5 seconds, Mikan, who is currently in New York for a Vogue cover modelling stint, received a second message:
"Please? *kissy emoji*"
—XoxO—
As Syaoran drove up the elevated driveway in front of the Amamiya Manor, he saw Sakura who was still wearing the same simple white dress she had on since morning, holding a very quiet chubby child who had his face buried on the nook on Sakura's neck.
"Baobei love, look, Papa is here." Sakura whispered softly on the kid's ear.
Raising his head up, Xiao Bao turned to look at the nearing black Range Rover expectantly.
Realizing that he cannot see where his Papa is, Xiao Bao looked back at his mama with disappointment in his eyes and pressed his face back again on her neck.
Laughing a little, Sakura affectionately rubbed his head and signalled for Syaoran to roll down the windows as the car approached them.
"Baobei! Papa missed you!"
Hearing the familiar, low-pitched baritone voice he had grown fond of in less than 24 hours, Xiao Bao lifted his head up again and now with a wide smile on his dumpling-like face, raised both his arms to wave energetically at his Papa.
"Papa back! Yea~~~~"
Syaoran chuckled as he got off the driver's seat and jogged over to where his wife and kid is.
Holding out his perfectly lean, tanned arms, he swooped comically to get the giggling little bun from Sakura and threw him up in the air, earning a squeal from both the mother and child.
A squeal of utter delight for Xiao Bao.
And a squeal of utter terror for Sakura.
"Li Xiao Lang! Don't do that!" Sakura almost felt her heart stop from the moment Syaoran threw Xiao Bao about four feet up in the air until he caught him safely back in his arms.
Unsatisfied by her loud complains and utterly annoyed that Syaoran seemed to be ignoring her as he laughed loudly along with Xiao Bao, Sakura grabbed Xiao Bao from Syaoran's hands and to the Mister Playful's surprise, slightly twisted her body, lifted her perfectly shaped left leg up and swiftly kicked his ass.
Awestrucked by his Mama's actions and simply ignorant of his Papa's predicament, Xiao Bao 'oohed' and 'aahed' upon being swung around this time by his Mama.
"Mama fast! Papa strong!"
Xiao Bao cheered happily, sheer happiness eminent just looking at his flushed cheeks and sparkling eyes.
Meanwhile, the strong Papa Syaoran almost fell on his knees the moment Sakura's powerful roundhouse kick landed on his well-trimmed ass. It was a good thing that he quicky regained his balance with just a slight one step forward.
Again, he whispered a silent 'Thank you' to their martial arts Master in his heart.
Sakura may have only been taught by him for a few years when they were younger, but Syaoran has devoted his years until he was twenty two being mentored by the highly respected Kung Fu Master Wu Ming.
"Sakura." he grunted, trying to keep his manly demeanor since there are servants busily running about in and out of the Manor, in addition to the stationed security personnel around.
"Do you want to kill your husband? We haven't even been married for 24 hours, wife…"
Harrumping at him, Sakura lifted her chin up arrogantly as she opened the door of the car and buckled Xiao Bao on his baby car seat while comforting him since he dislike being put there- he wants to be held by Mama or Papa forever!
"Mama, hold..."
With his big watery eyes, Xiao Bao held out his arms to ask hi mama to pick him up from the seat.
"Baobei is Mama's obedient child, ne?"
She playfully played the little amount of accumulated baby fat under his chin with her forefinger.
Waaaa~~~ so cute.
Jiggly jiggly fat!
Adamant at making his mama pity him and take him off the chair, Xiao Bao tried his best not to let out even a tiny giggle from being tickled.
"Mama...hold..."
Two big teardrops rolled down his tender, white cheeks.
"Oh Baobei..." Sakura sighed and gave up, as she leaned over again towards him and started to remove the first buckle.
"Xiao Bao, what did you promise Papa this morning?"
The door of the driver's side opened and Syaoran, who was also still wearing the same black soft and expensive looking cashmere sweater, black sweatpants, and black running shoes, stepped inside the car and turned around a little to look at the stubborn little child.
Silence.
"Baobei, remember what Papa told you this morning?"
He patiently spoke, toughening his resolve as he see his firstborn silently crying as if he had failed him in something life-changing.
Syaoran sighed.
What is this issue about kids and baby car seats?!
He glanced at his wife who is on the verge of crying too.
He has got to talk to her about creating a baby car seat that will cater to whatever babies need just so they will stop having this headache everytime they need to go out.
"Look, sweetheart..." Syaoran tried again.
But the little boy let out a soft sigh, almost as if imitating his frustrated father previously.
Syaoran and Sakura exchanged glances and swallowed back their chuckles.
"Baobei 'member. Baobei sowy Papa."
Before Sakura could react, she felt a soft warm hand covering her left one.
Looking at the slightly smiling little bun, Sakura smiled back at him, buckled on her seatbelt, and then shifted closer to him.
She placed her head on top of his lap and lifted pressed his hand on top of her cheek as she gaze right back at those beautiful amber eyes she has fallen in love with so much.
Oh how she wish she can adopt this child!
Looking at the prettiest hands he has ever seen, those long and slender hands covering his own small ones, that is as white as his Grandmother Rou Xi's favorite pearl earrings, Xiao Bao marvelled again on how perfect his Mama is!
This morning, Papa had placed his head at the same position as Mama. And although he gradually felt drowsy and has fallen asleep, he still remember how his hand felt warmed by his Papa's large hand.
"Mama, Papa, same!"
Mama, Papa did the same to me this morning! He comforted me like this too!
"En! Papa loves you too just like Mama!"
Well she didn't know what Xiao Bao meant though,
but still, what she did really made him happy!
Seeing that the two have finally settled down, Syaoran reached over and pinched Xiao Bao's foot gently.
"You made Papa very happy, Baobei. Thank you! Papa will drive now okay? So we can go and meet your Uncle Muye! I heard he has some presents!"
"Yay! Papa love wu!"
I love you Papa!
As the SUV started to move, two low-profile black sedans followed suit.
The first one moved in front of the Range Rover while the second one closed behind.
"Are those your people or mine?"
"Mine. I told Natsume we'll be utilizing mine first for these week. Yours will be sent for a special training from tomorrow together with Koko and others."
Surprised, Sakura's brows furrowed slightly. She wanted to probe Syaoran for further explanation but she knows now is not the right time.
Knowing what she's thinking, Syaoran reassured her.
"I'll tell you everything later, don't worry."
"Well, I know you will."
Turning her attention back to Xiao Bao, Sakura pinched his cheek.
After five minutes of peaceful silence.
Sakura has finally decided to pop the question.
"Baobei, Mama want to ask you…"
Syaoran sneaked a peek at the two at his rearview mirror.
Well, actually, his car has been modified to automatically drive by itself towards the destination. He just wanted to be double sure of the two's safety so he's still doing his best to keep his mind in driving.
But something in Sakura's tone made him look up.
Guess his wife can't resist it anymore.
Syaoran chuckled inwardly.
"What, Mama?"
Xiao Bao tilted his head like he usually did, and Sakura wanted to bite him affectionately!
So adorable!
Got to make him hers! Make him hers!
"If Mama ask you to always stay with Mama..—-"
Wide eyes,
Mouth open,
Flushed chubby cheeks…
Xiao Bao sat up straight and pressed his hand harder on Sakura's cheek.
"Yes Mama! Yes! Baobao stay! Mama, Papa, Baobao, always!"
I want to always stay with Mama and Papa!
Always!
"Hontou ni?! You would really stay with Mama and Papa? But how about your Grandma and Grandpa, your Uncle Xu and Uncle Ze?"
She cannot believe how the little guy easily agreed to stay with them!
"Together! Papa, mama,Baobao, gam-ma, gam-pa, un-ca Ze, un-ca Xu!"
What's so difficult about it? Let's all be together!
Papa, Mama, Xiao Bao, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Ze, and Uncle Xu!
"Xiao Lang, pull over for while."
Whipped Li Xiao Lang immediately pulled over.
Heck, it's a good thing they haven't entered the freeway yet.
Sakura scrambled to move over and whisper to his ear.
"Honey, I want us to adopt this child! Please, please, please? Can we? Please babe…"
She whispered with such passion that Syaoran couldn't help but shift his body so that he is almost facing her properly.
"Sweetheart, Love...Look.." he said softly.
"This is a child, not a puppy or a purse. Do you know the gravity of what you are asking of me?"
Sakura looked up at him with big, wide, shining emerald eyes.
Syaoran couldn't help but immerse himself into them, reliving the first time he saw it again after years of being separated in their childhood years.
Green has always been his favorite color.
Had he even told her that?
"But husband~~~" Sakura used her softest, most docile tone as she uttered the title that she knew would make this strict and cold man in front of her be like putty in her hands.
"He doesn't really have parents, right? And you are a Li! What can you not get?"
"Sakura…" Syaoran forced himself to focus back on the present as he closed his eyes to keep himself from drowning deeper in her beautiful eyes.
The moment he heard her call him husband, he knew she already had him figured out.
She had long figured out how to win their every battle.
"Husband~~~~Maybe you don't even love me that much?"
Sakura looked down and her long auburn hair gently fell and covered one side of her face.
A few second after, something warm fell on Syaoran's hand that he was using to support his body while he was in such a sitting position.
Freaking hell!
Can't he even choose the time as to when to talk to her about Xiao Bao being their unknown missing firstborn?!
Does she really have control over everything that involves their relationship?
Syaoran let out a loud sigh in defeat and reached out to tuck the hair covering her left profile back in her ear.
"Alright, I'll do something about it later."
Anyway, that is the truth though.
He really will do something about this matter later anyway.
But there is no need for such adoption.
"We can really adopt him?"
No. Why adopt our own child?!
Silly wife.
Syaoran gave her a smile that was so beautiful, that, with the sun's rays shining behind him creating a halo around the outline of his upper body, Sakura stared at him in a slight daze.
"He's our child. Now go back to your seat and buckle yourself safely. Let's go pick your cousin up so we can quickly return to the Manor. I'll handle everything."
Oblivious of the real meaning behind his words, Sakura grabbed the front of his shirt and pressed her soft lips to his cold thin ones.
"I have the best husband in the universe! I knew it was the perfect plan to hook up with the Young Master Li."
She gave him a mischievous wink before returning to her seat and then kissing the little bun's cheek who has been quietly watching the front, silently admiring his parents sweet interactions in his mind.
If he can be with them everyday,
How wonderful every day is.
-XoXoXo-
"Blondie!"
Jiang Muye, who was currently sitting unabashed on a roadside curb right behind his broken black Porsche, raised his head up to look at the dainty looking woman walking excitedly over to where he was.
Actually, he was wearing his earphones and was listening to some loud music that he did not notice the Range Rover approaching him and his car and gradually stopping near him.
He even had his eyes closed beneath the dark aviators he was wearing, his beige corduroy cap pulled way low over his eyes as he tried to catch some sleep as he wait for the help his cousin promised him she had sent over.
It just so happened that the song had just ended when Sakura called him so he looked up to see her coming over, looking so much like a fairy in a simple white dress with a white ribbon around her tiny waist, beige leather flats, and an elegant wide-brimmed white hat over her head.
After Muye got over his initial shock at seeing the only relative in his heart (well, he acknowledged Uncle Fujitaka but that was a different thing tho…) picking him up while he had been stranded under such midday heat for almost an hour, he finally noticed a very tall man, taller than him, walking a little behind his older cousin.
And as his blurred vision from his sleep became a bit clearer, he saw a young child of about two years old sitting comfortably in his arms.
Hey! Isn't this man supposedly Li Syaoran?
Why is he with child?
Seeing the clear confusion on his handsome face, Sakura pinched both his cheeks as she finally stood in front of him. Jiang Muye blushed and immediately rush to his feet but his sitting cross-legged for a long time numbed his long legs a little so it was a bit of a struggle for him to stand properly in front of his saviours.
"Jie jie!" Muye exclaimed as Sakura encircled her slender arms around his waist to give him a warm hug,
Muye felt that he was almost dying after being exposed to such heat during noon time.
The inside of his car felt too suffocating, and he couldn't even roll down his windows since the car has totally broken down, that he was forced to stay outside.
It may be hot but at least cool wind sometimes blew by him which made it more tolerable than the confines of his old car.
But this warmth, the warmth he felt when Sakura hugged him tightly for a little while, he like.
No, not just like.
This warmth, he loves.
She is the sun in his lonely life that he would always yearn for.
The feeling she brings him is just too similar to what his mother brings that having her around makes him somehow think that his mother hasn't left this world.
Clearing his dry throat, Muye gave Sakura one last squeeze before untangling her arms from his body.
"Jie jie, I've been sweating for a long time. You'll get dirty and smelly."
"Stupid Muye." she laughed and stood on her toes to pat his right cheek.
"You don't have to worry about something as insignificant as that. Besides, you never stink anyway. We of the same blood never smell bad! Right, honey?"
Sakura turned to the man standing behind her. She took a step back so that they can stand side by side.
"Yes."
Sakura giggled and the other man looked down at her with a doting smile on his cold face.
Jiang Muye thought that this man looked really intimidating and it even seemed like a smile was never meant to be seen on that face of his.
And yet that smile exuded such tenderness and love as he looked over his giggling Jie jie.
Jiang Muye couldn't help but also smile as he watch over the couple in front of him.
He was never one who watch romantic movies, nor had he even been in a relationship all his life, but this kind of dog food - he is happy to see.
At least he is assured that his Jie jie has married a man who seemed very much in love with her. And she deserved that.
Jiang Muye then turned his attention to the child in the man's arms who was looking at him curiously.
This child, under the sunlight, has a bit longish hair that seemed to glow dark red, and whose eyes appear like liquid gold with tiny dark iris at the center, cute lightly upturned nose, slightly flushed cheeks because of the heat, almost snow-white porcelain skin…
Jiang Muye isn't a doctor for nothing.
One glance and he can see this man and his Jie jie in the child's features.
Could this be the child that the nurses from the hospital was talking about this morning?
Seeing the younger man's jaw dropping slightly and his eyes widening as he stare at Xiao Bao, Syaoran knew that his initial expectation from as early as during breakfast has come true.
This genius doctor cousin of his wife would realize that Xiao Bao is his and Sakura's child.
"Hello, I am Li Syaoran, your Jie jie's husband. You are Jiang Muye, right? It is a pleasure to finally meet Sakura's beloved little cousin."
He shifted Xiao Bao on his left arm and offered his right hand to the young doctor who finally got back to his senses and has also reached out his right hand to shake Syaoran's.
"Hello, Master Li. I have long heard of you. It felt truly amazing to finally get to meet you, I am Jiang Muye and is currently working as a resident doctor at Tokyo Central Hospital. I apologize for being unable to attend your wedding, I have only finished my shift just now."
He bowed a little as he respectfully shook his hand.
Well, he is not a genius for nothing.
He has some ideas of what happened this morning at the hospital and knew Li Syaoran must have good reasons for it.
As long as he is not hurting his Jie jie, he had no plans of interfering with their relationship.
Anyway, Li Syaoran is smart enough to decipher what he just said.
'I know about this morning. But I won't say anything because I choose to trust you for my Jie Jie.'
Understanding the meaning behind his words, Syaoran gave him a rare genuine smile.
"That's alright, we understand. Anyway, this is our son, you can call him Xiao Bao."
He had an inkling about the situation, but that doesn't mean that having it confirmed immediately won't surprise him.
Jiang Muye's jaw dropped low enough to make Sakura laugh at him.
She leaned over and whispered in his ear,
"Don't say it out loud as to not Xiao Bao hear, but Syaoran and I will adopt him later. Doesn't he look lovely?"
"Er, of course he is."
Sakura let out another giggle as she reached out towards Xiao Bao and hugged him tightly in her arms.
Jiang Muye slightly shook his head as he watch his Jie jie who is so brave to race on a dangerous twisted road cliff and shoot down cars and yet dumb enough to not even see herself and her husband in that child's facial features.
He then shot a look at her Jie Jie's husband.
He gave him a slight nod and smiled back at his wife and kid.
"She is."
Jiang Muye let out a snort.
Looks like this man is too smart to be able to read people's minds.
What a terrifying man.
"Huh?" Sakura looked at her husband.
Syaoran placed his arm around her small shoulders and pulled her towards him and planted a kiss on top of her head.
"I just saw your cousin looking at you as if you are an angel sent down to save him from this unbearable heat. So I confirmed that you are, and we should hurry back so he can take a shower and finally have a good meal. It must have been difficult for him to eat properly because of his work, right?"
Sakura clapped her palm on her forehead.
"You are right! Why are we standing here for? Come on, Blondie. Let's go back home. You sit beside Syaoran in front, Xiao Bao and I will sit behind. My baobei will go back and show his Uncle Muye how obedient he is by sitting in his baby seat, right?"
She rubbed her tiny nose with those nose of his that she would like to think look so similar to hers.
If it truly is,
wouldn't that be just a wonderful thing?
"Yes mama. Mama sit, Baobao sit."
Yes mama! If mama will sit beside Baobao, then Baobao will sit obediently for you!
"Mama hold?"
He raised his right hand to Sakura's face.
Will Mama hold me again? I like Mama holding my hand, especially inside the lonely car.
"Mama will even kiss Baobao many, many, many times!"
She kissed his fluffy cheek over and over as she turned around and walked over to the Range Rover.
Completely ignoring her husband and beloved younger cousin.
Syaoran felt that this young man is much more mature and easier to talk to than the Amamiya idiots that he took a step closer and gave him a consoling pat at the back.
"This will happen most of the time, better be prepared for it."
Jiang Muye was taken aback at the man's intimate act.
I mean, this is the Li Master, for crying out loud!
He slowly bobbed his blond head to show him he understood and quietly followed him to the car.
Syaoran suddenly stopped and turned his head to look again at the young man.
"Thank you for not saying anything a while ago. It is quite complicated and she doesn't have any idea. But this afternoon, we are expecting to receive the results and I will tell her then."
Pausing a little as he took in consideration the other man's widened eyes, obviously shocked that he was told these sensitive information, Syaoran shook his head in his mind.
He can now understand why his cute wife took upon her responsibility to watch over this young doctor.
He may be a genius but he thinks too little of himself.
Maybe he too should watch over this kid starting today.
"You will know the truth about this matter too, don't worry about it."
With that, he beckoned for him to get on the passenger side as he walked over to the driver's.
Jiang Muye realized that the great and mighty Li Syaoran had just acknowledged him as a family member worthy of being trusted.
Bright blue eyes shining,
The corners of his mouth unconsciously upturned,
Jiang Muye jogged over to the Range Rover and happily opened the door and seated himself.
Like a young man in his teen years, he sneaked a peek at the man beside him who is looking at the rearview mirror to watch as Sakura entertained the child as she double checks if she had properly buckled him in his seat.
He then also copied the man and was amused at the scene reflected.
"Love, wear your seatbelt so we can leave."
"Oh, sorry dear. I forgot."
Sakura buckled up and then moved closer to Xiao Bao just like before.
And as she placed her head on his lap, Xiao Bao rubbed her soft cheek and giggled happily.
And just like before,
Syaoran watched over them with such a tender look before starting the engine and focusing back on the road.
"Let's go back."
Syaoran said to no one in particular but Jiang Muye felt he was talking to him.
'go back.'
As if it was such a place he can return to anytime.
As if wherevere the Li Syaoran's family of three are going to is where he, the lonely little orphan, is expected to go back to.
Silently, Jiang Muye leaned back on his seat and watched over his Jie jie playing with her child.
He really feel such happiness only when she is near.
Jie jie,
his very own angel here on earth.
The blond guy who had only two people to call his family added two more in his heart.
Hey mother, look!
Seems like I won't be too lonely anymore.
