Chapter 216 Children are the Most Wonderful Existence

At first, Luun was a bit awkward around the children. After all, they hadn't spent time together since they were young, and Luun didn't have any experience with children, so it's normal to feel a bit uneasy. Charlotte said seriously, "Transitioning into a new role takes time to adjust. Maybe he won't do well at first, but don't blame him. After all, we're all first-time parents." Sofia nodded, "I think you're right. I'll try to control my temper then. Although I haven't raised children before, at least I should have more patience than him." "I think children are truly magical beings." Sofia turned to look at her, "I don't quite understand yet." "Before this, you might have thought it was more comfortable to be alone, but once they come into your life, you'll feel like it's all worth it." Even though Sofia didn't fully understand even after hearing this explanation, maybe it was because she lacked experience in this area. But she didn't need to worry. It wouldn't be long before she could experience this wonderful feeling herself. The two of them sat nearby chatting, watching as Lilia accidentally fell into the hole she dug, and then Charlotte hurried over to her. When Charlotte picked up the child and saw that she had fallen asleep, both of them smiled. "This child is really something. She fell asleep even while digging a hole." Sofia looked at the adorable sleeping face of the child, "You better go wash her quickly. While she's not deeply asleep yet, wake her up now. Otherwise, she'll be uncomfortable with sand all over her." Charlotte nodded, "It's getting late. Do you want to head back home now?" Carlos had been with them, unnoticed by them, until they mentioned going to rest, then he walked over from where he was. "I thought you were going to stay here tonight." Sofia rolled her eyes, "I thought you were busy, so I've been chatting with them all day. If I knew you were free, I should've dragged you out for a walk. After all, since we came here, I don't even know what this neighborhood looks like." "Then let's go for a walk tomorrow night after dinner. It's not early now. You should go back to rest first." After Sofia stood up, she said goodbye to Charlotte and left. Charlotte carried her daughter. As soon as she went upstairs, she intended to give her daughter a bath, but she heard laughter from inside the bathroom. Charlotte stood at the door and knocked, "Are you and Andy both in there?" Luun said through the door, "Yes, but we'll be done soon. You can come in later." Listening to the commotion inside, it was obviously very cheerful. Seeing how well the children were getting along with their father, she felt a bit relieved. She originally thought Luun would be entirely focused on work and wouldn't have time to spend with the children, but now it seemed that those worries were completely unnecessary. Luun was doing even better than she had imagined. "Forget it, you guys go ahead and wash up. I'll take Lilia to our bedroom to bathe." Luun said, "Okay." After Charlotte took Lilia into the bathroom, the child, who had been asleep, immediately opened her eyes when she was put into the bathtub. "Mama, why didn't you call me when it's bath time?" "I saw you were asleep, so I didn't want to disturb you. Who knew you'd wake up now." Lilia had always loved playing with water since she was little, so she especially loved baths. This way, she could stay in the bathtub for a long time without coming out. She sat in the water like a little adult, "Mommy, you don't need to help me tonight. I can do it myself." Seeing that Lilia meant it, Charlotte decided not to intervene anymore. "Alright, but be careful. Don't stand up in the bathtub." Lilia nodded, "You can trust me." So it was because of Lilia's assurance that Charlotte left her to bathe in peace. After Charlotte finished washing her hair, she noticed that there was no movement in the bathtub. She found that the child had fallen asleep again. Fortunately, there wasn't much water in the tub today, otherwise she might have been submerged. Charlotte didn't feel like continuing to bathe. She quickly rinsed off and then carried her daughter out of the bathroom. Lilia's room was next to Andy's, and she heard the father and son still laughing and talking in the bedroom, so she couldn't help but go in and take a look. "You two aren't asleep yet. What are you doing making noise here?" Andy lay on the bed, showing no sign of wanting to sleep, "Dad's telling me about some funny things that happened to him when he was a kid. Mom, do you want to come and listen too?" Charlotte seemed to have never heard him talk about it before. This man was really too biased. He could easily talk to his son, but he never chatted with her. After thinking about it, Charlotte sent her daughter into the bedroom first, then came back and sat next to them. "Well, go ahead and tell me. I'd like to hear it too." Seeing that she had really come over, Luun felt a bit embarrassed. It's normal for boys to be mischievous when they're young. His image in Charlotte's eyes had always been very serious, so if Charlotte knew that he had also done some naughty things when he was young... It would definitely tarnish his image in her eyes. "Why do you suddenly feel awkward saying this in front of me?" Luun was silent for a moment, just about to explain, when he saw Charlotte stand up again. "Forget it, forget it. I won't force you. You two can talk. I'm going back to rest." Luun felt relieved when he saw her leaving. "If you want to hear, I'll tell you slowly later." He'd better come up with a good story later; he couldn't let his image suffer. Charlotte left, but she knew her son would come and tell her. After all, they were a mother and son who shared everything. Whatever happened, this boy would tell her. Even the gossip from kindergarten, Charlotte would know every bit of it, clear as day. Tonight, the two of them really told a long story. It wasn't until Charlotte fell asleep that Luun sneakily came in from outside. Charlotte's sleep was always light. When she heard movement, she rubbed her eyes and asked, "Is it over?" These three unexpected words startled Luun, not because he had done anything wrong.
