Mo Anyu is the third child in Mo’s family. He has two elder brothers and his family spoils him very much. So, when Mo Anyu proposes not to enter the company at the age of 18 and wants to work in entertainment, they agree.

Mo’s mother, who is particularly fond of the youngest son, allows him to move out, but asks Mo Anyu to go home and stay for one day every week.

So, Mo Anyu will be home for a day every week.

On that day, little Watermelon’s preschool class just takes a holiday. Mo Anyu originally plans to take him to the amusement park to play but takes him back to Mo’s home together because of the call from Mo’s mother.

There are so many young children of Mo’s family. When Mo Anyu arrives home, he happens to see several grandchildren of his uncles playing together and ask little Watermelon to play with them.

Little Watermelon is afraid of strangers, but he obediently goes to say hello to new friends when seeing Mo Anyu’s irrevocable expression.

Mo Anyu enjoins the servants and goes into his room with the satisfying expression.

Little Watermelon can’t naturally engage with others. He is afraid of those strangers and hesitates for a long time before joining them.

But those children, who are three years older than little Watermelon on average, are not willing to play with him. They don’t dare to reject only because of Mo Anyu.

―They are all Mo’s children, but suddenly a child whose surname is Bo appears. They don’t feel happy. So, when they play games, they ignore and exclude little Watermelon to some extent.

Only a while later, little Watermelon who is alienated has an accident.

A group of children are playing hide and seek in the front yard. Nobody is willing to be the arrested one. After a dispute, they all agree that little Watermelon be responsible for finding them and they hide.

At first, they play happily. But when finding a little boy with a jade pendant around his neck from the back of the garden, little Watermelon is pushed to the ground by the angry boy.

When little Watermelon is pushed to the ground, he is in a daze and doesn’t react in time. Until the back of the brain hits the floor, and he feels painful and bursts into tears.

The servant doesn’t dare to scold the little boy and wants to go forward to take little Watermelon away, only standing on the side because of the little boy’s stare.

When Mo Anyu appears, little Watermelon stops crying. Looking at the child’s red eyes, he frowns and thinks that little Watermelon is effeminate. So, he doesn’t think much about that.

Little Watermelon doesn’t dare to tell Mo Anyu that he is bullied, and the little boy and servant won’t naturally tell others. That matter is covered.

He has stayed at Mo’s villa for a day. At night, little Watermelon cries to go home and refuses to stay there.

Mo Anyu’s mother is not very happy. She doesn’t like the child who keeps unhappy expression all day.

So, after Mo Anyu is going to take little Watermelon away, she takes her youngest son and whispers. She means that he’d better not bring others’ child home at random in the future. If he must do that, don’t bring such a child with the unhappy expression, referring to the infelicity.

Mo Anyu nods helplessly. He doesn’t know why little Watermelon is so troublesome today.

It’s not as obedient as usual.

Mo Anyu’s mother enjoins him, and then reluctantly watches Mo Anyu leaving.

“Find out who the child is in case that some bad guys depend on our Anyu.” After her son leaves, Mo Anyu’s mother turns to the steward.

The steward nods, remaining calm.
