    Chapter 128: Going Overseas to Find Daddy~

    Taking little one abroad was a spur-of-the-moment decision by Shen Minyan.

    Since You You returned to the Shen family, the one who spent the most time with him every day was actually Tang Dou.

    He and Shen Yan were very busy, and Shen Lin had to go to school, so he and Shen Yan had very little time to accompany You You.

    This time, as a stand-in parent accompanying You You to record the show, for three whole days, You You could only be with him.

    Occasionally, when little one was asleep, he would mumble a word or two in his dreams, calling out for Daddy. And last night, when he had a fever and Shen Minyan carried him around the room, little one, with a fever patch on his forehead, was suffering but still calling out for his dad.

    He wasn’t so self-centered; he knew the dad his son was calling for was actually Su Siwen and Qin Kun.

    Shen Minyan even specifically called Tang Dou over while little one was sleeping to figure out what to do.

    You You was too well-behaved; he rarely asked them for things on his own.

    In his view, little one only asked Shen Yan and Pei Xu for things, and even then, it was only snacks like cake and cookies.

    He wasn’t entirely sure if You You was still scared deep down or if he had never felt safe since coming to Beicheng, which was why he called out for Su Siwen and Qin Kun in his dreams.

    After hearing him out, Tang Dou was quiet for a bit, then also began to reflect.

    You You video-chatted with his two adoptive fathers almost every day. On the one or two days when Qin Kun wasn’t available, he would send a message in advance.

    If Su Siwen was undergoing surgery or not feeling well and couldn’t video chat, Tang Dou would join the two adoptive fathers in keeping it a secret from You You, saying that his dads were a bit busy and would call once they were free.

    Su Youli would always nod obediently, but the disappointment in his eyes was unmistakable.

    On days when he didn’t video chat with his two adoptive fathers, little one had no energy to go outside and would stay in the playroom all day. He’d only take Yuanzi to the garden for a walk when Yuanzi had to go potty.

    Everyone in the Shen family treated Su Youli very well—there was no doubt about that. But everyone also knew that the ones little one most wanted by his side were Su Siwen and Qin Kun.

    Little one was always smiling and rarely cried or seemed upset. But precisely because of this, Shen Minyan felt even worse for him.

    At such a young age, he had to endure the pain of separation from his most important family members and adapt to a completely new family.

    Shen Minyan thought, his You You should be able to see whoever he wanted and live with whoever he wished.

    His You You only needed to be happy, healthy, and safe. He didn’t have to be careful or suppress his emotions. Whatever he wanted to do, Shen Minyan would accompany him.

    After the two of them talked it over, they decided to take little one directly from Haicheng Airport to Country D. They couldn’t wait another moment.

    Su Youli sat on his dad’s lap, rubbing his ear, wondering if he had misheard.

    Dad was taking him to see his little dad and Kun Kun.

    His mouth fell open, and his eyes lit up, as if he had been hit by a huge surprise.

    "Dad, are you really taking me to see little dad and Kun Kun?" Su Youli couldn’t help but pop up excitedly.

    Shen Minyan patted his head, nodded, and smiled. "Yes, we’ll leave early tomorrow morning and arrive in the evening, though the flight is pretty long.

    I’ve asked Xiao Tang to run into town to buy some things. He’ll meet us at the airport tomorrow, and we’ll leave together."

    Su Youli’s little heart was racing, unable to believe he would see his two dads tomorrow!

    After making this decision, Shen Minyan suddenly felt a sense of relief.

    Su Youli spent the entire evening excited, even dreaming of his dads coming to the airport to pick him up.

    Early the next morning, little one woke up at seven.

    After waking up, he immediately got out of bed, changed his clothes, climbed onto his little stool in the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth, and used a small comb to tidy his messy curly hair.

    "Dad, wake up!" Little one put on his clean little leather shoes and lay by the bed to begin his wake-up service.

    Shen Minyan opened his eyes, unsure when little one had woken up. He was already neatly dressed from head to toe, with a sweet smile on his face.

    He knew then that his decision was right.

    "Play by yourself for a bit; Dad will be ready soon."

    Su Youli didn’t waste time. He opened his little suitcase, placed his small pillow and pajamas inside, struggled a bit to zip it up, and then pushed it next to Dad’s large suitcase.

    Shen Minyan got ready quickly, feeling refreshed, then picked up his little one with one hand and pulled the two suitcases downstairs.

    They set off too early; the other three families hadn’t woken up yet.

    He needed to say goodbye to his friends. Little one hesitated only for a moment before going to knock on Qi Qi’s door.

    "You You, you’re up so early."

    Su Youli smiled, looking up. "Good morning, Aunt Hua Zhao. Is Qi Qi awake? You You wants to say goodbye to him."

    Hua Zhao was surprised. "Say goodbye?"

    She thought they were going back together since they lived so close.

    Little one nodded, his big eyes sparkling. "You You is going abroad to see his dads."

    Hua Zhao suddenly understood. She had heard from Pei Yi about You You’s background and knew that his two adoptive fathers were abroad for treatment.

    In that case, it made sense to say goodbye. Once You You left, Qi Qi probably wouldn’t see him for a long time.

    "Come in. Qi Qi isn’t awake yet. I’ll wake him for you."

    Hua Zhao took little one’s hand and led him into the family suite. She opened the door to the inner room, where Pei Qiqi was sleeping soundly on the small bed.

    Pei Qiqi slept very properly, lying flat on his back with his hands folded on his stomach.

    "Qi Qi, wake up~"

    Little one called out from the bedside, but his voice was too soft, and the person on the bed didn’t stir.

    Seeing no response, the little one tiptoed and reached out to pinch Pei Qiqi’s cheek.

    "Qi Qi~"

    The little one lowered his voice, dragging out the end of his words.

    Pei Qiqi opened his eyes, tilted his head, and saw Su Youli.

    "You You?" The newly awakened Pei Qiqi thought he was seeing things.

    Why was You You lying by his bed so early in the morning?

    "Yeah, it’s me, Qi Qi. I came to say goodbye. I’m going abroad to see my dad."

    Pei Qiqi's mind was still foggy—what dad? What goodbye?

    "I'm going to a faraway place, and it'll be a long time before I'm back. Promise you'll miss me, okay?"

    Pei Qiqi finally understood clearly now—You You was leaving.

    He sat up abruptly, his hair slightly messy, and asked, "When are you leaving?"

    The little one was actually pressed for time; he really wanted to see his dads right away.

    "Right now. Can I ask you for a favor?"

    The little one dug into his little bag and pulled out a cod sausage. "Could you feed this to Yuanzi for me? Tell him I specially saved it for him—I didn’t even let myself eat it."
