Ming wanted to stop it, but he didn’t succeed.
When Lester was in Ming’s arms, people didn’t feel it. But he was in Sean’s arms now and they both looked in the same direction.
Everyone suddenly found that they were just a pair of big and small versions!
The guests all gathered around.
They looked at Sean and Lester and didn’t talk.
But everyone had a guess in mind.
“Uncle, what’s your name?” Lester put his arm around Sean’s neck.
He seemed to hold Sean tighter than he had just held Ming.
“Lester, he’s your brother.”
Ming said it before Sean answered.
It was true that Sean should be Lester’s brother!
Lester frowned and pouted. “Why? How can there be such an old brother!”
As he spoke, he held Sean’s arm tight.
It seemed that he was afraid Ming would take him away.
This scene was more embarrassing than before.
James, who had been standing by, had been looking at Lester. He seemed to know that he had a grandson or great grandson.
He opened his arms and said to Lester, “your name is Lester, right? Let me hold you.”
I thought Lester would disagree, and I was trying to persuade him, but Lester said, “OK!”
Then he opened his arms and twisted directly to ask James for a hug.
“Dad, be careful.” Ming was a little nervous. He leaned over and tried to hold Lester.
After all, James was in his eighties. Lester was not tall, but he was nearly twenty kilograms.
“It’s OK.” James was confident and directly put Lester in his arms.
In fact, I was afraid that he could not hold Lester. I took a step forward and stood where I could catch Lester at once.
Lester was in James’ arms and blinked and naively asked, “Grandpa, am I heavy? Remember to put me down if you are tired.”
“You’re not heavy!” James didn’t seem to expect such a young child to be so sensible.
He laughed when he spoke!
And at this time, James said happily, “good, my family can hold you.”
He said casually, but in fact, he had solved the embarrassment of Sean holding Lester.
Lester put the little face next to James’s and kissed James’s face.
James froze at first, but he burst out laughing.
I watched and worried.
I knew my son.
Lester must have a purpose to do this!
Sure enough, then Lester looked at James innocently and said, “Grandpa, can you not let this uncle go? I like this uncle, too.”
He was referring to Sean.
James liked Lester very much. He could do anything Lester wanted.
James nodded. “OK, today is a good day. Everyone is here.”
I couldn’t help looking at Sean. His black eyes were looking at Lester and his eyes were complicated.
“Thank you, grandpa!” Lester listened and immediately laughed.
He kissed James in the face again.
