Chapter 165
Five years later.
On TikTok’s livestream, in Little Sun’s food cooking room.
“Welcome everyone to Little Sun’s food livestream. Today, we’re going to make two seafood dishes p>
In the livestream, two exquisitely cute little kids dressed in cartoon outfits were in front of the camera, handling shrimp.
Ruby Hansen was carefully picking out the shrimp veins with a toothpick, but her small hand slipped, causing the shrimp to fall to the ground. “Ruby Hansen p>
Ruby Hansen got scared and quickly bent down to find the shrimp. After finding it, she looked at Dylan Hansen, who was slightly taller than her, with a face full of grievances. Her black eyes looked innocent as she said, “Brother, I’m sorry.” Both of them were five-year-old kids. Ruby Hansen was naive and innocent, while Dylan Hansen had a maturity beyond his age.
Although he still had a childlike appearance, it was not difficult to see that he would definitely be charming to thousands of girls when he grew up.
“Brother.” Ruby Hansen saw that Dylan Hansen was ignoring her, so she reached out her tender fingers and tugged at his clothes, acting spoiled. “Brother, forgive Ruby, okay? Even if Ruby only eats two shrimp for dinner, she’ll give the rest to you p>
“You dare to bring that up? Who was it that ate a plate of shrimp by yourself a few days ago and ended up with a stomachache? Today, you’re not allowed to eat shrimp anymore!” Dylan Hansen said with an expression that left no room for negotiation.
Upon hearing this, Ruby Hansen pouted her small mouth, but she didn’t dare to have any objections. “Alright then, alright then. If Brother says I can’t eat, then I won’t eat p>
After saying that, Ruby Hansen lowered her head and gently poked her own finger, looking pitiful.
laughter broke out among the audience in the live stream room as they witnessed the interaction between the two siblings.
In the chat, someone typed, “Dylan, give Ruby a break. She already suffered from a stomachache after eating shrimp last time p>
Another message followed, “Silly Ruby, when will you understand your brother’s good intentions? He does it for your own sake. Look at how pouty your mouth is. Come to Auntie’s arms quickly p>
The viewers in the live stream room were all fans of the adorable siblings. Whenever they went live, people would come to watch their interactions.
As the audience continued to comment, one message caught their attention.
“NightA has joined the live stream p>
NightA was a wealthy individual known by the regular occupants of the little ones’ live stream room. He was extremely generous, always showering them with valuable gifts each time he visited. Immediately upon entering the live stream, NightA started sending gifts to the two children. In a matter of moments, he had already spent a substantial amount of money.
Dylan stood in front of the phone screen, watching the gifts pouring in. With a serious expression on his small face, he said, “Uncle NightA, my mommy said you shouldn’t send gifts anymore.” This had been mentioned by his mother earlier, stating that their live stream was meant to share their daily lives, and there was no need for people to spend money on gifts.
But this person named NightA insisted on sending numerous gifts every time he visited, no matter how they tried to dissuade him. Dylan felt a bit down.
On the other hand, Ruby’s face lit up with a smile when she saw the gifts. She clumsily made a heart gesture towards the camera and exclaimed in a soft, childish voice, “Thank you, Uncle NightA! Uncle NightA is so cool p>
In the U country, in the capital city, in a quiet and spacious study, a man sat at his desk. His gaze was dark and intense, his thin lips and dark hair added to the coldness that emanated from him.
However, the live stream of the two adorable children played on his phone screen, creating a sharp contrast.
After sending the gifts, the little boy in the video furrowed his brows seriously and said, “Uncle NightA, my mommy said you shouldn’t send gifts anymore.” Meanwhile, the little girl beside him cleverly blinked and blew a kiss towards the camera, even making a heart gesture.
“Thank you, Uncle NightA! Uncle NightA is so cool!” The little girl’s voice was soft and sweet, and even her movements seemed a bit clumsy. But for some reason, it effortlessly touched the soft spot in his heart.
In an instant, the man’s lips, previously as cold as ice, curved slightly, as if the ice had started to thaw. Comparing the two children, he found himself favoring the little girl.
Unlike her brother, she didn’t sternly advise against sending gifts but expressed her gratitude with a heart gesture every time. If he had a daughter p>
Lost in thought, Jacob’s office door was knocked.
His assistant entered and reminded him, “Mr. Blackwood, the meeting is about to start. We need to leave.” Jacob’s gaze lingered at the corner of Adrian’s lips for a moment before he finally stood up.
At the moment when his smile was about to fade, he suddenly realized the familiar babyish voice coming from his phone.
Their Mr. Blackwood was watching the live stream of those two adorable kids again.
The situation was somewhat mysterious.
A year ago, he accompanied Mr. Blackwood to the U.S. for a meeting. After the meeting, Mr. Blackwood went to a jewelry store to buy a gift for his own mother. During this shopping trip, he encountered two elderly ladies, but these two ladies were quite special.
Surprisingly, they were watching a live stream of cute kids while selecting jewelry.
Jacob could understand if the old ladies were doing something peculiar, but what he didn’t understand was why Mr. Blackwood stopped in his tracks upon hearing the kids’ conversation. He stood beside the two old ladies, listening and observing for a long time.
In the end, he even approached them for advice, asking how to interpret something.
This change shocked Jacob.
After that, watching the live stream of these two adorable kids became a regular occurrence for Adrian.
Whenever the little darlings went live, Adrian would stop whatever he was doing and go to give them support.
If he was in a meeting, he would enter the live stream, show his support, and then watch the replay later.
At first, Jacob thought that Mr. Blackwood just found these two kids cute and interesting, which is why he behaved like this. He believed that the interest would fade after some time. However, he never expected that this behavior would continue for more than a year.
Mr. Blackwood had not gotten bored of it yet.
According to his cousin Brent, who used to be Mr. Blackwood’s assistant, Mr. Blackwood had been divorced before, and he was the one who drove his wife away. Jacob couldn’t help but wonder.
Could Mr. Blackwood’s current fondness for watching kids’ live streams be related to his ex-wife?
Could it be that something unspeakable happened between him and his ex-wife, which led to Mr. Blackwood only being able to watch other people’s children on live streams now?
But all of these were purely speculative thoughts in his mind. He dared not mention them openly.
Lost in his thoughts, Jacob suddenly heard the sound of the kids cheering from Mr. Blackwood’s phone. “Mommy’s back p>
“Mommy p>
Originally, Adrian was planning to close the live stream and leave for the meeting. But upon hearing the two little ones’ words, he froze in his actions and sat back down in his seat. On the relatively small screen of his phone, he could vaguely see a blurry figure entering through the door.
Although the woman’s figure was indistinct, the moment Adrian caught sight of her, his heart skipped a beat.
