Chapter 42 - Pawshake

"Do you now understand?" Ye Chaoxiang asked.

"Hmm. Good morning Chenchen's mummy. You look pretty," Lee Ai sweet mouthed Yang Chenguang.

"Oh why thank you, little cookie. You look even prettier," Yang Chenguang chuckled in delight. She was already liking Lee Ai. So adorable and respectful.

"Look who just arrived. It's my darling and my buddie," Yang Chen shouted from the door and hurriedly made his way towards the trio. "Aaaahhhhh Chenchen," Lee Ai screamed and wiggled out of Ye Chaoxiang arms. Ye Chaoxiang carefully placed her down. Finally freeing herself from him, she ran as fast as her little legs go carry her while laughing happily and leaped into Yang Chen's embrace. Yang Chen twirled her around, threw her up and caught her.

"Waaah my darling looks so pretty. Well someone looks happy. Could you tell me why you are all smiles?" Yang Chen inquired.

"Little Ai was soo excited to meet Chenchen, his dog and Chenchen's mummy. Handsome doctor and I are wearing matching clothes and we bought a bowl of ice cream," Lee Ai let him in on her happy source.

"Speaking of ice cream, you spilled it on the car floor when we arrived," Ye Chaoxiang reminded her. "WHAT? NOO! MY SWEET ICE CREAM," Lee Ai dramatically shouted with both her little hands on either sides of her head.

"It's alright. It's just ice cream, I can get you another," Ye Chaoxiang tries to calm her down before she started throwing tantrums.

"No, that one was big and handsome doctor spent a lot of money on it and that nice lady gave me an additional scoop," she vigorously shook her head causing few strands of her hair to fall all over her face.

"But-"

"Who made my lollipop upset?" A voice sounded behind the adults trying to calm the little kid in their mist. Everyone turned towards the direction of the voice. It was Li Fengjin. He had a light frown on his face and he was holding a bag. Did he go shopping or what?

Lee Ai forced herself down from Yang Chen's hands and ran towards Li Fengjin. He squatted to her level and gave her a hug. "Hey lollipop, what the matter? Who made you upset?" Li Fengjin asked in a low voice only he and the sad kid could hear. Lee Ai shook her head.

"Nothing?" He asked again and shook her head.

"Little Ai spilled ice cream on the floor inside handsome doctor's car," she reported.

"Did he scold you? Is that why you are not happy?"

"No. Handsome doctor paid plenty money to get Little Ai that ice cream and a nice aunty gave me an extra scoop. But stupid Ai wasted it," she explained further.

"It's alright and my lollipop isn't stupid. You have your handsome prince here and he bought you a big bowl of ice cream and your favorite sweet," Li Fengjin lightly shook the bag in his hands before giving it to her. "Now don't be upset anymore unless you want your prince charming to get upset too," he pouted cutely to which Lee Ai chuckled and pecked his cheek.

"Little Ai isn't upset anymore."

"What do you think is those two are whispering about?" Yang Chen asked his mother and his friend to which they shook their heads as they were also clueless. Lee Ai ignored all of them as soon as Li Fengjin came. Li Fengjin carried Lee Ai over to them and greeted them.

"We have stayed outside enough. Let's all go in," Yang Chenguang said and they all went on. Immediately they stepped into the living room, they heard the barking of a dog. They diverted their attention was towards the white, black and brown Collie dog running towards them.

"Is that your dog? So cute?" Lee Ai rushed to it and caressed its fur. The dog licked her face making Lee Ai squeal and chuckle at it's gesture. "That tickles. Hahaha," she laughed.

"Alright Chase. That's enough," Yang Chen ordered and the dog stop licking.

"Chase can you be my friend?" Lee Ai asked sweetly. Chase stretched out one of its paw and whimpered. "He wants a pawshake to seal your friendship," Yang Chen interpreted.

"Really? Well then, it's my pleasure to be your friend," Lee Ai shook his paw. "Alright, everyone move to the dinning for lunch. I bet you guys are tired from the long drive," Yang Chenguang said. Yang Chen went into the kitchen to help his mother get their food. Lee Ai sat beside Ye Chaoxiang who sat on the left hand side of Yang Chenguang. Yang Chen sat between his mother and Li Fengjin.

"Wow so many dishes. Thank you mum," Li Fengjin and Ye Chaoxiang thanked unanimously. "Actually it's Chen that prepared all these," Mrs Yang admitted.

"WHAT?" Ye Chaoxiang and Li Fengjin's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yay! Chenchen is cook."
