I almost touched the moon

After dinner, Wen Song and Cheng Che watched cartoons with Astrid on the sofa. Astrid leaned on Cheng Che's arms and suddenly raised her head and asked, "Dad, can we invite Joshua to go skiing and horseback riding tomorrow?"

"Of course." Cheng Che nodded and said with a smile, "I'll send a message to Joshua's mother to ask if he has time tomorrow, and then we can go to his house to pick him up."

Wen Song heard their conversation and asked curiously, "Who is Joshua?"

Cheng Che just opened his mouth and said, "He's Astrid's good friend in kindergarten." Astrid smiled, buried her face in Cece's back shyly, and said to Wen Song, "My boyfriend."

"Your boyfriend?" Cheng Che was as if facing a formidable enemy. He picked up Astrid and said seriously, "But you told dad before that he was your friend. Why is he your boyfriend now?"

Astrid laughed again and said to Cheng Che seriously, "Dad, when I said he was my friend, that friend meant my boyfriend. I thought you knew Dad."

Wen Song smiled even more happily and said to Cheng Che: "She is right. You know, there is no distinction between boyfriend, girlfriend or ordinary friends in German. So Astrid, can you tell me why he is your boyfriend? Is he handsome?"

Astrid opened her big eyes, looked at Wen Song and nodded, even blushing a little shyly.

Cheng Che was even more anxious when he saw her like this. He held Astrid on his lap, looked down at her and said seriously, "No, baby, Joshua is just your friend. You can say he is your good friend or best friend. But you can't say he is your boyfriend. You won't have a boyfriend before you are 50."

Wen Song thought he had heard it wrong, and asked with a smile, "fifteen?"

"Fifty..." Cheng Che emphasized it again, and in case Wen Song didn't hear clearly, he said it in German again, "Funfzig."

Astrid ignored Cheng Che's words and said seriously, "But he is already my boyfriend. Should I break up with him? When Hendrix and I broke up, my mother said that I couldn't do that. I can't play with other people's feelings."

"Hendrix is ​​your boyfriend too?!" Cheng Che almost fainted from anger. "Baby, tell Daddy, how many boyfriends do you have?"

"If you count Joshua, there are probably three or four of them, not a lot." Wen Song smiled and took Astrid from Cheng Che's arms, and asked with interest, "Baby, is Joshua handsome?"

"Of course!" Astrid ignored Cheng Che's pale face and said to Wen Song proudly, "Joshua is the most handsome boy in our kindergarten. He can also teach me to climb trees and swim with me. Mom, he is the only one in the kindergarten who can swim faster than me. He is really handsome."

When Cheng Che heard her words, he snorted in dissatisfaction and muttered in Chinese, "What's so good about this little brat?"

Wen Song smiled and squeezed his hand, and said in a helpless tone: "How old are you, and you're still arguing with a child."

Then he curiously asked Astrid, "He sounds really charming. Is he as handsome as his father?"

Astrid looked at Cheng Che, thought for a while, then put her arms around Wen Song's neck and whispered in her ear, "Of course, mom, he's more handsome than dad, otherwise I wouldn't fall in love with him."

Although he lowered his voice deliberately, Cheng Che still heard it. He was angry and speechless, but he had no choice but to pick up Astrid and said, "Dear little princess Astrid, it's already 9 o'clock, you should go to bed."

"But I still want to watch the cartoon!" Astrid protested, kicking her legs. "Dad asked me to finish watching this cartoon!"

"No, you have to go to bed, or you won't grow taller."

For the first time, Cheng Che did not obey his daughter's wishes. He picked her up and left the living room. "Daddy will take you to take a bath, and then tell you the story of the Little Mermaid. Honey, you can't fall in love with the prince just because he is good-looking, otherwise you will turn into foam like the Little Mermaid."

"Papa————" Astrid was still protesting, hitting Cheng Che's shoulder with her little fist, "I won't turn into foam! Mom, save me!!"

Wen Song looked at this scene, showed a helpless smile, hugged Cece and said: "Dad is really childish, right?"

Half an hour later, Cheng Che returned to the bedroom with a gloomy face and said to Wen Song, "I have to call Joshua's mother and ask Joshua to keep his distance from Astrid."

"Don't make a fuss." Wen Song smiled and patted him. "What does she know about boyfriends? I was just joking. Don't be so nervous."

"Didn't you hear her? She said Joshua is more handsome than me!" Cheng Che took out a photo of Astrid and Joshua from his phone and handed it to Wen Song. He said unconvincedly, "Look, honey! He's just a little brat! How can he be as handsome as me!"

Wen Song took a look at the photo. It was a little boy with golden curly hair and blue eyes. He was indeed very cute.

"He's really handsome. My daughter looks like me. She has a good taste in looks."

"How handsome!" Cheng Che snorted again, hugged Wen Song and kissed her on the face, "Europeans are not good-looking, you said that yourself."

"Cheng Che, how old are you?" Wen Song rubbed his head speechlessly, "Husband, you are 37 years old this year, not 7! Comparing beauty with a kindergarten kid, isn't that childish?"

"But she said that was her boyfriend!!" Cheng Che said as if facing a formidable enemy, "How old is she, and she already has a boyfriend."

Seeing his anxious look, Wen Song patted Cheng Che's back and said, "Okay, haven't you told her about the dangers of love-brain? She's not that stupid. Besides, how would she know what a boyfriend means? This is normal behavior for little girls after they have gender awareness, just appreciation for the opposite sex. Didn't you have a crush on the pretty girls in your class when you were in kindergarten? Didn't you pull their pigtails?"

"I didn't!" Cheng Che said immediately, "My mother told me since I was a child that I shouldn't bully girls, and I don't have any crush on other girls."

"You are very good then. When I was a kid, the boys in kindergarten often pulled my pigtails. I told my grandmother about it and she said it was because they liked me. I really hate it."

Wen Song smiled, hugged Cheng Che tightly and kissed him, and said softly, "Husband, Astrid will definitely fall in love when she grows up, don't think too much. Don't worry, when she grows up a little bit, we can have a good talk with her about gender relations."

Cheng Che nodded, hugged Wen Song and said, "But I'm still worried. I'm worried that she'll be bullied, and that she'll get hurt in her relationship..."

"Why is she injured?" Wen Song laughed, "Didn't you hear her say that her previous boyfriend was Hendrix, but she immediately changed him because she thought Joshua was more handsome. Thank God she didn't let anyone else get hurt."

After hearing what Wen Song said, Cheng Che also felt that he was a little too nervous. He lay on the bed, hugged Wen Song and said, "It doesn't matter now, but she must be careful when she grows up. No man is a good thing. Even I made my sister sad before. Mom must have hated me at that time. Even I hate myself. I'm sorry, wife..."

"Let's not talk about things that happened hundreds of years ago." Wen Song also hugged him, leaned on his chest, and suddenly asked with great interest, "A Che, did you really never like girls when you were a child? Didn't you have any feelings for them at all?"

"No." Cheng Che shook his head and said, "When I was a kid, there were always a lot of girls around me, and I thought it was a bit noisy... Later, my mother passed away, and I didn't dare to think about relationships at all... So, baby, you are not only my first love, but also the first person I like."

After saying that, he kissed Wen Song's lips, looked at her and asked, "Wife, when you were little, did you ever like a boy in your class, or a handsome senior?"

"I went to an all-girls school before college, so where would a senior come from?" Wen Song smiled, trying to recall, and said, "As for the little boys, it seems that there really was one, but you can't be jealous."

"I'm not jealous." Cheng Che kissed her on the lips, hugged her and asked, "Who is it? Are you still in touch?"

"I don't know who it was." Wen Song recalled, "I met him when I was seven or eight years old in the hospital where my grandmother worked. At that time, I saw a little boy crying in the garden. He looked very cute, so I gave him a lollipop to stop him from crying. I also told my grandmother that he was so beautiful and that I wanted to marry him when I grew up. My grandmother scolded me and said that I had a problem with my brain."

"When I was seven or eight years old?" Cheng Che suddenly showed a surprised expression. "Baby, I remember that grandma used to work at Kexin Hospital, right? Was it the Jiefang Road branch?"

"Yeah..." Wen Song nodded, "What's wrong? It can't be... you?"

"What do you think, little fool?" Cheng Che's eyes were filled with tears. He hugged her and said, "When I was six years old, my mother fainted while skiing with me. I knew she was seriously ill. I didn't want to make my mother sad, so I hid in the garden and cried alone. Suddenly, an older sister came and gave me a lollipop. She also told me, 'Don't cry, you are so beautiful, and you look ugly when you cry.'"

The past events came vividly to her mind in an instant. Wen Song still remembered that time when she handed the lollipop to the crying boy and wanted to wipe his tears, but she found that she didn't bring any paper. She could only wipe his face with the hand that had just finished sketching, and as a result, his fair and clean face was stained with pencil dust.

"So it really is you. No wonder I felt familiar with your childhood photos, but couldn't remember where I had seen you."

Wen Song raised his head and kissed Cheng Che's chin, a smile on his face but tears in his eyes, "I still remember that after I said that, you seemed to cry even harder."

"Yes! I was wondering why this sister was so weird. I cried so hard and she still said I was ugly. I was so mad!" Cheng Che lowered his head and kissed her. "But it's not weird if it's you. So, my wife, you have been planning to marry me for so long?"

"No!"

Wen Song was unwilling to admit it, and bit his chest muscle proudly, and suddenly felt a little melancholy, "It turns out that we met so early, and I didn't know... What a pity. I'm going to call my grandmother now and tell her that I was not talking nonsense at that time, that the child was Cheng Che, and I really married him."

"Baby, if you call grandma now, she will scold you for having a brain problem again."

Cheng Che also hugged her and kissed her passionately, "No regrets, baby, we still have a lifetime together. I will love you forever and will always belong to you alone."
