Chapter 1733: 1733 is not biological 2 She walked to the window, gazing at the vibrant flowers in the courtyard outside, her gaze serene. “Wife…” He walked to her side, paused in silence, “Why are you asking such hypothetical questions?” Her gaze was calm as water, “I remember over five years ago, you told me, you said Xiao Chonghuan told you, that any direct descendant of the Xiao Family has a birthmark on the top of their head. Go find Little Ye’er, look at the top of his head, he’s currently in the training room learning to differentiate medicinal herbs.” With Xiao Yuchuan’s intelligence, he had likely guessed something. He walked towards the pharmacy where Little Ye’er was studying. At this moment, a highly skilled Doctor Wang was teaching Ye’er to differentiate the various medicinal herbs displayed on the shelves. Upon seeing Su Qingyue and Xiao Yuchuan, he bowed respectfully. “Doctor Wang, I have something to discuss with Ye’er.” Su Qingyue waved her hand. “Then I will take my leave.” After Doctor Wang left, Little Ye’er walked up to Su Qingyue, “Mom, do you have something to tell me?” “Ye’er, come over to Dad.” Xiao Yuchuan beckoned him with a wave. Little Ye’er obediently walked up to him, and Xiao Yuchuan reached out to part his hair, carefully examining his scalp, which looked normal, with no birthmark. He untied the square cloth towel holding Little Ye’er’s hair, parting his hair carefully to inspect, indeed finding no birthmark. Su Qingyue observed Xiao Yuchuan’s facial expression, seeing contemplation flash through his eyes. Little Ye’er lifted his little head in confusion, “Is there a problem?” “No problem.” Xiao Yuchuan patted his son’s head. “Then why look at my hair?” Little Ye’er pouted unhappily, “Ye’er is very obedient, even when Mom isn’t around, I wash my hair on time, so I won’t get lice.” Xiao Yuchuan smiled fondly, his gaze on Ye’er filled with indulgence, “Dad knows Ye’er is the most obedient. Let’s go, Dad will take you back to the room and help you comb your hair.” “But…” Little Ye’er hesitated, shaking his head, “Ye’er is studying medicine, it’s not yet the time Mom set for class to end, it’s not convenient…” Hearing this, Xiao Yuchuan felt a pang of heartache. His son, so young, had to learn so many things when at this age, he should be playing with mud, “No worries, I’ll talk to your mom, and ask for a leave.” “Better not.” Little Ye’er shook his head, “Mom works so hard raising Ye’er all by herself. Ye’er wants to mature earlier, grow up sooner, to take care of Mom later.” Su Qingyue couldn’t help but feel a twinge in her heart. All these years, raising her son alone, striving hard to start a business, was truly exhausting. Having such an understanding son like Ye’er made all the hardships worth it. Xiao Yuchuan gazed tenderly at his wife, crouched down, and kissed the soft cheek of his son, “Ye’er is so good. Dad won’t leave you anymore, nor your mom. From now on, Dad will take care of you and your mom.” “Really?” Little Ye’er’s eyes lit up. “Really.” Xiao Yuchuan nodded solemnly. “Pinkie promise…” Little Ye’er extended his pinky finger. “Alright, pinkie promise.” Xiao Yuchuan also extended his pinky finger to hook his son’s. “A pinkie promise for a hundred years, no lying, liars are puppies.” The child’s voice was full of earnestness. “No lying, liars become puppies.” Xiao Yuchuan pulled his son’s small body into his arms, his throat catching slightly. His wonderful wife had given him the best son. Little Ye’er quietly remained in his father’s embrace, sensing that his father might cry, looked up with his bright eyes, “What’s wrong?”
