After Ning Qiuxiu and Zhan Qingyue decided to have a second child, Ning Qiuxiu began taking folic acid to prepare for pregnancy.

This news made Zhan Qingyue very happy. Not only could he enjoy intimate moments with his wife without worrying about contraception, but he could also look forward to the arrival of a baby daughter.

Ning Qiuxiu was careful not to say “what if” this time, or Zhan Qingyue would be upset with her “word magic” again.

However, getting pregnant with a second child takes time.

Unlike with their first child, Mi Dou, where they conceived quickly after deciding to have a baby, this time they’ve been trying for a while without success.

Zhan Qingyue was so eager that he wished he could try every night to conceive.

Clearly, he really wanted a daughter.

Even Ning Qiuxiu was secretly hoping for a baby girl, as Zhan Qingyue would be very disappointed if it wasn’t a daughter.

She even worried that if they ended up with a third child, it might be difficult if it wasn’t a girl.

But for now, she hoped the second child would be a beautiful and cute little girl!

After deciding to try for a second child, their first task was to prepare Mi Dou for the news.

Zhan Qingyue wasn’t good at this, so it was up to Ning Qiuxiu.

“Little sister?” Mi Dou scratched his head, not really understanding the concept.

Ning Qiuxiu said, “Yes, like little Sister Tuan Tuan. Do you like that idea?”

Mi Dou’s eyes lit up: “Yes, I like it. Little Sister Tuan Tuan is fun.”

“…” Ning Qiuxiu was silent for a moment and then explained, “When talking about girls, you shouldn’t say ‘fun,’ you should say ‘interesting.’”

Mi Dou, looking innocent, asked, “Why?”

“Because ‘interesting’ is a more polite way to say it. You need to be polite, Mi Dou,” Ning Qiuxiu said, rubbing his head.

She found her son adorably cute.

“Oh…” Mi Dou understood and then smiled, “Mommy, hurry up and have the baby. With a little sister, I’ll have someone to bother.”

Ning Qiuxiu: “???”

If you dare to bully your sister, your dad will definitely make you regret it.

Wait, why does Mi Dou think he can bully his sister?

This thinking seems to come from Zhan Qingyue, who tends to tease familiar girls like his cousin Lin Xitian and Ning Qiuxiu herself.

Little rascal!

Ning Qiuxiu pinched Mi Dou’s cheek: “Who told you that a little sister is someone to bully?”

Mi Dou, with his cheek pinched and pouting, answered reasonably: “But Little Sister Tuan Tuan is!”

“…” So, you think it’s okay to bully a girl?

Ning Qiuxiu realized she needed to teach Mi Dou a lesson on how to show affection to girls, which is by loving and caring for them, not by bullying.

Otherwise, he might never find a good partner in the future.

This was in line with Zhan Qingyue’s views; both of them believed that emotional intelligence should be taught from a young age to prevent their child from becoming insensitive.

So, Mi Dou, at a young age, was already starting his emotional intelligence lessons…

The second baby sister hasn’t arrived yet, but “Mom is Back” has started airing.

The night before the show aired, the official Weibo account released some behind-the-scenes clips and previews.

One clip showed how MiDou, not eating his meal, secretly fed the dog while pushing his dad away.

This moment quickly won over many fans.

Everyone marveled at how clever Mi Dou was, being so young and already able to outsmart his dad.

They assumed he must be very smart.

Plus, Mi Douis good-looking, so his online popularity quickly surpassed that of the previous popular star, Mr. Zhan.

The show aired on Friday night at 9 PM on Huangdou TV.

After finishing dinner, Midou obediently sat in front of the TV, even refusing to go for a walk.

He felt like he had been waiting for a century, but finally, “Mom is Back” started.

Excitedly, Midou jumped up from his chair and called out, “Dad, Mom, come quickly, it’s starting!”

Since the show was also available on Huangdou TV’s online platform, Huangdou TV, with live comments, Ning Qiuxui wanted to see how people praised Midou, so she watched the online version with comments.

It was Midou’s first time on TV, and it was very exciting.

When the camera cut to their home, Midou happily pointed at the TV and said, “That’s our home! Miaomiao!”

As a “has-been internet celebrity,” Miaomiao had a five-second appearance on TV.

Originally, Miaomiao was chewing on its favorite stuffed toy, but when it heard its little master calling, it ran over quickly, sat by the little master’s feet, and showed a mix of disdain and cuteness.

“Miaomiao, you were on TV just now.”

Miaomiao didn’t understand human speech, but seeing its little master on TV, it wagged its tail and sat in front of the TV.

The next moment, the camera cut to Zhan Qingyue.

Miaomiao immediately backed up two steps.

Ning Qiuxui saw this and laughed, teasing Zhan Qingyue, “Looks like you’re not just scary to ghosts but also to dogs.”

Zhan Qingyue didn’t mind being teased by his wife and smiled at her, saying, “Also scary to birds.”

Ning Qiuxui: “…”

That didn’t seem wrong.

On TV, Zhan Qingyue kissed Ning Qiuxui goodbye, and Midou covered his eyes again, saying, “Mom and Dad are being shy again, kissing.”

No one knows who taught Midou that kissing is something to be shy about, but whenever he accidentally sees them kiss, he covers his eyes to warn them, making both of them laugh and feel embarrassed.

On the live comments:

【Ahhhh, that man, finally appearing!】

【Even after so many years, Mr. Zhan is still charming】

【Ugh, the taste of dog food is still as strong as ever, that darn sour smell】

【2333 When Mr. Zhan announced his relationship, I was still a young girl, now I’m a mom of two】

【As a mom now, watching Mr. Zhan and Quixiu, reminiscing about the days of chasing stars~】

…

It turns out that after all these years, Mr. Zhan still has fans.

After finishing filming “Happiness in Progress,” Mr. Zhan faded from the spotlight, leaving many disappointed.

Now that he’s back on the show, many old fans have come out again.

But after so many years, they’re no longer the same obsessed fans from back then.

The couple saw the barrage of comments and felt a bit emotional.

Before they could say anything, the camera shifted back to little Mi Dou, and the barrage of comments changed direction.

【Ahhhh Mi Dou, I love you!】

【So cute, I’m dying!】

【Even at such a young age, with looks and long legs, he’ll definitely be a tall, handsome guy when he grows up】

【I declare, from today on, Qi Qi is my mother-in-law】

【Smart, good-looking, and comes from such a good family. Mi Dou is going to be amazing in the future】

【Future CEO role reserved, LOL】

…

The nostalgic comments were quickly drowned out by Mi Dou’s “fans.”

Especially when Mi Dou was seen feeling jealous that his mom said goodbye to his dad first and not to him, everyone was so charmed that the comments were flooding the screen.

Zhan Qingyue and Ning Qiuxiu felt like they were has-been internet celebrities.

Meanwhile, Mi Dou innocently asked his mom, “Mommy, why are there suddenly so many moving words?”

“…” Oh dear, that question hurt Mom and Dad’s feelings.

Ning Qiuyou explained with tears in her eyes, “It means a lot of people like Mi Dou. These moving words say Mi Dou is cute, smart, and well-behaved. Are you happy?”

“Happy~” Mi Dou smiled so widely his eyes almost disappeared.

However, Mi Dou’s happiness didn’t last long.

When the camera showed Mi Dou giving breakfast to Miao Miao after pushing his dad aside, he became too shy to watch himself on screen.

It felt like a public shaming!

“Did they say Mi Dou is a bad kid?” Mi Dou asked quietly.

Ning Qiuyou knew he was talking about the comment section. Of course, the comments were praising him, not calling him a bad kid.

“Yes,” Zhan Qingyue said seriously, “They said Mi Dou shouldn’t do that. Will you do it again?”

Mi Dou quickly shook his head, determined to be a good kid.

— Mi Dou was young and had a clear idea of what it meant to be a good or bad kid. He firmly believed he shouldn’t be a bad kid.

It wasn’t until the camera moved to another family that Mi Dou felt comfortable looking again.

Other kids were unique in their own ways, but based on the comments, Mi Dou was clearly the most popular.

Mi Dou watched himself, either feeling shy or smiling foolishly, but was very interested in watching other kids.

He noticed one family where the dad was older and didn’t take care of the child.

The little girl cried as soon as her mom left, and kept crying even after being comforted.

“She cries a lot,” Mi Dou said, clearly not liking children who cry.

Zhan Qingyue said, “Little girls crying is natural.”

Ning Qiuxiu thought, “…”

When Mi Dou cried, Zhan Qingyue would teach him that boys shouldn’t cry easily. Yet, for girls, crying was considered natural.

Oh, Zhan Qingyue, your double standards are too obvious.

Hearing Zhan Qingyue’s comment, Mi Dou thought of something: “When Mi Dou has a little sister, will she cry a lot too?”

Zhan Qingyue teased him, “So, do you like it?”

“…” Midou was silent for a moment and honestly said, “Not really.”

Then Midou looked up at Ning Qiuxui with big eyes and said, “Mom, don’t have a sister, have a brother instead, like Tang Dou’s brother!”

Tang Dou’s brother is Zhan Qingyuan’s child, and Midou, who is very fond of him, is only two years old.

Zhan Qingyue: “…”

Ning Qiuxui tried not to laugh, patted Mi Dou’s head, and said, “Shh, don’t say that. If we end up having a brother, your dad might blame you for jinxing it. He might even say the Beans are especially lucky.”

Zhan Qingyue: “…”

Midou didn’t understand the latter part of Ning Qiuxui’s words and ignored it, but he caught the main point and turned to Zhan Qingyue, asking, “Does Dad not want a brother?”

Zhan Qingyue thought this was a silly question but kept up his loving dad persona and gently said, “Dad would actually prefer a sister, like Tuan Tuan. Don’t you like that?”

“But,” Mido protested urgently, grabbing his mom’s sleeve, “Mi Dou wants a brother!”

Zhan Qingyue: “No!”

Mi Dou was about to cry from the frustration, so Ning Qiuxui quickly picked him up and comforted him, then scolded Zhan Qingyue, “Midou is still so young, and you’re an adult. Isn’t it childish to argue about this?”

Zhan Qingyue seriously said, “For other things, we can compromise, but not on this.”

Ning Qiuxui: “…”

You two are really something.

Whether to have a brother or a sister, is it something she can decide?

Besides, they aren’t even pregnant yet, and they’re already arguing about whether it’s a brother or a sister.

What if, what if they can’t get pregnant?

As the family argued about having a brother or a sister, the show’s progress bar advanced to a scene where Zhan Qingyue “punished” Midou by letting him eat only the amount of breakfast for lunch and only the amount of lunch for dinner.

The live comments were amused by Zhan Qingyue’s move.

【Haha, I knew Mr. Zhan wouldn’t only deal with Miaomiao and not Mido. Turns out the trap was here】

【Mr. Zhan’s method is so new; it’s the first time I’ve seen this way of educating a child】

【2333 Learned it. I’ll use this method with my baby in the future】

【For those who are moms, it depends on the child. My baby will cry if I try to reason with him!】

【But Mr. Zhan’s method is worth learning. If I had a kid, I’d have scolded them already】

【Why does it feel like all the comments are from moms ==】

…

Ning Qiuxui was amused by the comments and sighed, “Time flies, Mr. Zhan. Our fans have grown into moms’ fans.”

Zhan Qingyue raised an eyebrow, “So, are you trying to take the lead as the mom?”

Ning Qiuxui: “??? ”

You really have a talent for reading comprehension.
