The little girl was already incredibly charming, but the combination of her soft, cooing voice and those big innocent, dewy eyes made her even more lovable.

I was just about to lose control and hug her on the spot.

However, just then, a voice from behind me called out, “Ay!”

I turned around and saw a woman coming out of the room, dressed appropriately and radiating a graceful aura. Based on her age and appearance, she must be the girl’s mother.

It seems the little girl was not calling me earlier, but her mother.

“Oh, I forgot to introduce you, this is my sister-in-law, He Xiaohui…”

Ding Yinuo finally introduced her to me.

“Mom!”

After seeing the woman, the little girl ran over to her, sweetly calling out.

The woman picked up the girl and kissed her cheek,

“Sweetie, you play so well.”

“Mom, when can I eat my birthday cake?”

“Just a little longer, sweetie. We’ll have the cake after the candles are blown out!”

My gaze was glued to the little girl’s face, and I couldn’t look away.

Gazing at the happy moment of mother and daughter hugging each other, I couldn’t help but feel envious.

Ding Yinuo gently patted my shoulder.

That’s when I finally met his gaze, “What’s up?”

“Do you like her a lot?”

“She’s adorable!”

Ding Yinuo slightly nodded his head,

“My sister-in-law has been through a lot. After the accident with the girl, she couldn’t handle the strain and collapsed. She has been suffering from depression these past few years, unable to take care of herself, and often trying to commit suicide.”

“I understand. Any mother would be devasted if their child were in an accident. Your older brother must be under a lot of pressure supporting this family.”

Ever since I walked in, I noticed that even though Ding Xiao was sitting on the couch, his gazes were all over his wife and daughter.

Where his daughter was, his gaze was there.

Where his wife was, his attention was there.

When He Xiaohui picked up her daughter, he hurriedly displayed his worry for his daughter,

“Sweetie, you can’t let mommy hold you for too long, her body’s not well. Now let daddy hold you.”

He’s obviously a very responsible man.

“Indeed, Tianjiao Company hasn’t been doing well these years and it’s visibly take a toll on my brother. Fortunately, after seeing her daughter wake up, my sister-in-law’s health has been gradually improving.”

“That’s good to hear!”

The Ding Family has a nice family atmosphere. Ding’s mother takes special care of her eldest daughter-in-law.

In a bit, she brought the medicine over, reminding the daughter-in-law to take her medication and sit down for a rest. She’s shown herself to be quite hospitable towards the guests.

“Xiaosong… do you play Go?”

Ding’s father greeted me.

“Uncle, I only know a bit!”

“Then let’s go for two rounds!”

“Okay!”

Ding’s father is very talkative and adorable. Before each move, he would tell me what he would do three moves later, just to make sure I wouldn’t feel pressured.

Playing the game was very relaxing and enjoyable.

Meanwhile, Ding Yinuo watched us play…

From time to time Ding’s mother would remind him,

“Don’t just sit there and watch, bring some snacks for Xiaosong. Nowadays, girls like milk tea and snacks. Go and buy some!”

Soon after, she reminded him, “Ask Xiaosong if she’s cold and give her a coat if necessary.”

Then, Ding’s mother brought in a plate of tangerines, nudged Ding Yinuo with her elbow and gave him an order.

“Peel some for Xiaosong!”

“Mom, why are you bossing me around today? Can you give me a break? You’re so nice to Xiaosong. I’m starting to wonder if I’m your real son or if Xiaosong is your real daughter?”

Ding Yinuo jokingly complained.

Ding’s mother gave him a smack on his head,

“You rascal, if you don’t get smarter, you’ll remain single forever.”

“Single forever? Your handsome and excellent son is worried about not finding a wife?”

“Wives are meant to be treasured. Understood? Stop being cheeky, or face the wall and reflect on your behavior.”

“Alright, alright, mom. You are right, always right!”

Watching this loving mother and son bicker and tease each other, I couldn’t help but laugh.

After playing two rounds of Go, Ding Yinuo brought the little girl over to me again.

“Ruirui, do you find this woman attractive?”

The little girl’s innocent big eyes stared at me, flickering brightly as she seriously nodded her head, “Pretty!”

“Do you want to hug her?”

“Yes!”

Then Ding Yinuo lifted her up and handed her over to me.

I hesitated for a while before extending my arms to tightly hold her.

The small body in my arms surprisingly had a healing power. She made me feel warm.

As I was hugging her, she put her small arms around my neck and even kissed me on the cheek.

In the daze, I thought I heard her calling me “mommy”.

It took me a while before I finally put her down.

“Uncle, what should I call her?”

Ding Ruirui asked curiously.

“What do you think?”

“Pretty sister?”

“Absolutely not, you should call her ‘auntie’!”

Ding Yinuo deliberately said so. In our local customs, only when the niece calls her uncle’s wife can she be considered an aunt.

I laughed and kicked Ding Yinuo, “Stop it! You’re misleading the child.”

Upon hearing this, Ding Ruirui immediately called out, “Auntie, can I play you another song?”

“Sure, thank you!”

Ding Ruirui then went towards the piano and played “For Alice” again.

I was moved to tears once more…

Even though it was our first meeting, the Ding family members treated me incredibly well, as if we had been family for a long time.

There was no sense of tension, just complete relaxation.

As I was leaving, even the unwell He Xiaohui came to the door to send me off, holding my hand and saying,

“Xiaosong, my brother-in-law is a good man. You won’t regret choosing him.”

Ding’s mother even gave me a big red packet. Although I didn’t want to take it initially, Ding Yinuo whispered into my ear,

“If you don’t take it, my mom will think you look down on her and she’ll be upset. Every time she’s upset, she cries half a night.”

I reluctantly accepted it, “Thank you, auntie!”

Ding’s father waved at me, “Xiaosong, do come over and visit often!”

Ding Ruirui was reluctant to let me leave, holding on to my hand and insisting that I promise to come see her again next Sunday, to which I agreed.

As the car pulled away, I looked in the rear-view mirror and saw the whole family still standing at the door, waving at me.

I opened the red packet and counted the content. There was a total of 10,001 yuan. I asked Ding Yinuo, “What does this mean?”

“One in ten thousand! My mom is fond of you!”

“Now I finally understand why your EQ is so high!”

Ding Yinuo held the steering wheel firmly, showing me a perfect side profile, “Why?”

“Because your mom has a high EQ, your dad has a high EQ… it must be genetic! By the way, where did your niece learn the piano? She plays so well!”

“She never had lessons!”

“What do you mean?”

“I mean, before the accident, she had never learned to play the piano. After she woke up from her vegetative state, she suddenly awakened many talents, like playing the piano!”
