"What's wrong?" Xie Yuhua opened her eyes, saw the back of the child's head, raised her hand and hugged the child's chest, asking softly.

"Brother Xiaohua." Ling Xiao's voice was soft and weak.

"Hmm?" Jieyuhua responded.

After a long while, Ling Xiao's voice finally reached Xie Yuhua's ears: "Brother Xiaohua."

"What's wrong?" Jieyuhua asked.

"I'm calling you." Ling Xiao's voice became clearer, and it sounded like he was laughing.

"Why are you up so early? You were up for so long last night. Looks like I wasn't energetic enough. My child still has energy." Xie Yuhua stroked the child's smooth back, her eyes smiling as she spoke.

"Brother Xiaohua." Ling Xiao blushed at her words.

"Alright, stop fooling around. Look how shy my little Lingxiao is, his whole body is turning red." Xie Yuhua got up, kissed Lingxiao, and asked, "Let me see if my child is ready."

Ling Xiao pushed Jie Yuhua away and said, "Little Flower Brother, sing me a song. You promised to sing for me when I came back, and now it's time to keep your promise." His voice was a little embarrassed and angry.

"Okay, then you can sleep a little longer. When you wake up, I'll teach you to sing, and then we'll sing together." Xie Yuhua kissed the corner of the child's mouth and agreed.

"I only want to listen, not sing." Ling Xiao's voice carried a hint of coquettishness as she tried to refuse Jieyuhua.

"But I want you to come with me, okay?" Xie Yuhua asked, stroking the child's hair.

"Okay, how could I refuse what Brother Xiaohua thought?" Ling Xiao's tone was somewhat helpless, yet also indulgent. After climbing up to Xie Yuhua's neck and kissing his forehead, he smiled when Xie Yuhua couldn't see him.

In the afternoon, Ling Xiao was taken to Xie Yuhua's courtyard house. It was Ling Xiao's first time there. After Xie Yuhua showed him around and helped him get familiar with the environment, she took him to Xie Yuhua's costume room.

"Pick out an outfit." Xie Yuhua took out quite a few costumes.

Ling Xiao looked at the costumes Xie Yuhua had chosen, and there wasn't a single one for men, so he said, "Little Flower Brother, you choose." He then hooked his index finger around Xie Yuhua's collar, pulled him in front of him, and whispered in his ear, "Whatever Little Flower Brother chooses, I'll wear."

Xie Yuhua cleared her throat and held up the costumes one by one in front of Ling Xiao, her face still flushed. Ling Xiao didn't like this; he just loved Xie Yuhua's shy look, finding it incredibly amusing.

After changing into the costume, Ling Xiao exuded a charming allure, but without being vulgar. Just as Ling Xiao had guessed, Xie Yuhua had chosen a costume from the opera "Farewell My Concubine" for him.

"I'll put makeup on you." Xie Yuhua took out the face paint and pretended to apply it to Ling Xiao's face.

Ling Xiao subconsciously stepped back and said, "There's no need for makeup."

"Let's give it a try, I'll do your makeup together." Xie Yuhua wanted to do the child's makeup himself; he was sure the child would look beautiful with makeup on, and he was even looking forward to it.

The dressing room wasn't small, but when Jieyuhua applied makeup to Lingxiao, she felt the space was so cramped. Her beloved was so close, and she was applying makeup to him, drawing stroke by stroke as she pleased.

"Heartless." Xie Yuhua uttered these words as she applied lipstick to Ling Xiao's lips, then kissed the lips she had just called heartless.
