As the joy of Children's Day gradually fades away, Mo Yanyu's life returns to tranquility. One day, after finishing a heavy workload at the company, he received a text message from the pediatrician Li Dajie. In the message, Li Dajie sincerely invited Mo Yanyu and Little Star to a family gathering at his home. Reading the message, a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of Mo Yanyu's eyes.
In the evening, Mo Yanyu returned home with Little Star. He relayed Li Dajie's invitation to Little Star. Upon hearing it, Little Star's eyes lit up like the brightest star in the sky: "Uncle Mo, let's go! I really want to meet Dr. Li's kids!"
Mo Yanyu looked at the innocent and pure smile on Star's face and nodded gently, "Okay, we'll go this weekend."
On the weekend morning, Mo Yanyu carefully chose a light blue dress with small flowers for Star, simple and cute. He himself put on a dark blue casual shirt with jeans, looking both casual and elegant. They got into the car and drove to Li Dajie's house.
When he arrived at Li Dajie's house, he was greeted by a warm and comfortable small courtyard at the entrance, filled with all kinds of flowers and plants. Colorful balloons and banners indicated that this was a party specially prepared for the children.
The backyard landscape resembled a carefully painted scroll, with shady trees and a garden full of colorful flowers, adding a touch of vitality to this spring afternoon. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the tidy lawn.
Li Dajie is wearing a white shirt and a light gray vest, looking both professional and approachable. He always has a gentle smile on his face, creating a warm atmosphere.
When welcoming Mo Yanyu and Xingxing, Li Dajie warmly shakes hands and says, "Mr. Mo, welcome you and little Xingxing to my home. I hope you both have a great time today."
As soon as Xingxing saw the other children in the yard, she couldn't help but run over excitedly. Her small figure lively shuttled among the children, starting to play with them. Xingxing's laughter was clear and pleasant, like wind chimes in spring, ringing melodiously in the sunlight.
Mo Yanyu nodded slightly in response to Li Dajie's enthusiasm: "Thank you. We will definitely have a pleasant afternoon."
They arrived at the outdoor courtyard and sat around a round table. On the table, there was exquisite tea set, and Li Dajie personally brewed tea for everyone. The fragrant tea slowly diffused in the air, adding a touch of poetry to this leisurely afternoon.
Although Mo Yanyu is not very talkative usually, in this comfortable environment and friendly atmosphere, he gradually relaxed. He occasionally joined in the conversation, discussing topics related to work and parenting.
"Stars really enjoy playing with other children." Mo Yanyu looked at the playing children and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Li Dajie nodded and responded, "Children are always so innocent, their happiness always infects adults. Mo Yanyu, watching Stars so happy, you must feel very gratified."
Mo Yanyu nodded gently, his eyes revealing a deep affection for the stars: "Yes, whenever I see her happy, I feel that all the efforts are worth it."
A group of children were playing on the grass, chasing and frolicking, with laughter and joy filling the air. Star especially liked a small slide they had built, sliding down it again and again, each time excitedly waving to Mo Yanyu to show her happiness.
Lunchtime has arrived, and Li Dajie's table is filled with a variety of home-cooked dishes, from classic braised pork to refreshing mixed vegetables, each dish exuding the host's care and enthusiasm. The table is surrounded by the warmth of family and a pleasant atmosphere.
Mo Yanyu sits at the table, dressed simply and tastefully, as always displaying his cool and rigorous temperament. Although he is not very good at speaking in social situations, his attitude is polite, occasionally participating in the conversation nearby.
Star sat next to Mo Yanyu, her little face filled with excitement and curiosity. Under the watchful eye of the adults, she carefully tried each dish, occasionally letting out a surprised little sound: "Uncle Mo, this is so delicious!"
Li Dajie saw the children's happy faces and felt particularly joyful. His humorous and friendly nature led him to make some jokes from time to time, making the atmosphere at the table even more relaxed: "It looks like Star really likes our cooking. Next time, I'll have to let you taste my specialty dish."
Mo Yanyu smiled slightly and responded, "Li Dajie, your cooking skills are indeed exceptional. Xingxing rarely enjoys eating so much." His words were brief, but they conveyed sincere praise.
During lunch, everyone discussed topics such as parenting experiences and daily work, creating a harmonious atmosphere. Although Mo Yanyu didn't speak much, he listened attentively to each guest's remarks and occasionally interjected with his own perspective.
Li Dajie takes great care of the couples, ensuring that every guest eats happily and satisfactorily.
The atmosphere after lunch remains harmonious and pleasant. Li Dajie specially arranged a series of parent-child interactive games for everyone, among which the "Treasure in the Parents' Eyes" drawing competition particularly caught the attention of Mo Yanyu and Xingxing.
In this game, each parent and child pair must draw a portrait of each other. Mo Yanyu seemed a bit hesitant when picking up the paintbrush, but his eyes were full of focus and tenderness. He quietly observed the stars around him and then began to sketch on the paper.
He drew a portrait of a beautiful little girl with shiny black short hair, and her big eyes sparkled with curiosity and vitality, just like the star in his heart. With each stroke, he revealed his deep affection for this little life.
Star excitedly held the colorful crayons in her hand and happily waved them on the drawing paper. She drew a round, black ball with a smiling face and warm eyes, which she called "Uncle Mo" in her heart. Although her drawing was simple, it was full of childlike innocence.
"Look, Uncle Mo, this is you!" Star happily showed her drawing to Mo Yanyu, her face beaming with pride.
Mo Yanyu looked at the painting of the stars, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes as he softly responded, "Stars, you've painted beautifully. This is the first time I've been painted as a ball, and I really like it."
Li Dajie watched from the side and couldn't help but laugh, saying, " Mo Yanyu, it seems that the stars have completely accepted you. Your paintings are full of love."
In the parent-child painting competition, Mo Yanyu and Xingxing's work, although simple, became the most eye-catching focus. Through this event, their parent-child relationship deepened, and warmth was also conveyed among the parents and children on the field.
In the afternoon, the children participated in a small treasure hunt game. Xingxing formed a small team with other children, and they searched for hidden small gifts in the yard. Xingxing's eyes sparkled with curiosity and anticipation. She found a small box in a cluster of flowers, containing colorful hair clips and beautiful bracelets, which made her extremely happy.
In the evening, as the sun gradually set in the west, the gathering was also coming to an end. The children's faces showed a satisfied fatigue, and the day's joy made them feel fulfilled and happy. Mo Yanyu and Xingxing bid farewell to the Li family, thanking them for their hospitality.
On the way home, Mo Yanyu drove while Xingxing sat in the back seat, her little hand tightly holding onto the treasures she received today. She occasionally used her innocent childlike voice to tell Mo Yanyu about her experiences today, and Mo Yanyu listened, feeling warm in her heart.
"Uncle Mo, I'm so happy today. I made a lot of new friends," Star's voice was filled with joy.
Mo Yanyu looked at Star in the rearview mirror and smiled, "I'm also very happy that you're so happy, Star."
Inside the car, there was a warm and peaceful atmosphere. Xingxing leaned against the window, gradually closing her eyes and entering dreamland. Mo Yanyu's gaze once again fell on the road ahead, a satisfied smile on his lips. He understood that every day spent with Xingxing was the most precious moment in his life. For him, Xingxing's smile was the best reward, and her happiness was his greatest wish.
As the car slowly pulled up to the front of the house, Mo Yanyu gently carried the sleeping Xingxing out of the car and carefully brought her inside. Xingxing's little face still held a satisfied smile in her dreams, a mark of a happy day.
Mo Yanyu gently placed the stars on the bed, covering her with a small blanket, and quietly watched her peaceful sleeping face. His heart was filled with satisfaction. From the moment he met the stars, his life has been filled with new colors and meanings.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Mo Yanyu recalled the scenes of today. Watching the stars playing with the children, he realized that his life had transformed from an individual's independent space into a warm home for two. The arrival of the stars had made his world even more colorful.
It's late at night, Mo Yanyu gets up quietly, turns off the living room light, and the whole room is enveloped in silence. He walks to the door of Star's room, gently opens it a crack, and looks at her peaceful sleeping face in the moonlight. He whispers, "Goodnight, my little star."
Turning away from the room, Mo Yanyu returns to his own room. He lies on the bed, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought. Star's laughter, her innocence, her passion for life, all make him feel incredibly happy.
His life has become closely intertwined with this little girl. Every day, he is learning how to be a good "Uncle Mo," learning how to provide a home filled with love and security for Xingxing. His life is no longer filled with cold technology and rigid routines, but is now filled with warm colors.
