Following behind Xia Nuo was Xia Anyang, whose expression seemed rather serious.
Honestly, he had not expected to have such a big falling out with his usually close daughter today.
Upon reflection, Xia Anyang also realized that perhaps he and his wife had been too indulgent with their daughter in the past.
If they always gave in to her wishes, it could have an adverse effect on the child's growth in the future.
It's fine for the mother to be the gentle parent.
But as a father, he couldn't just spoil his daughter.
He needed to show the strict side of a father.
He must hold back!
Xia Anyang, you must be a great father!
You must not coax Nuo Nuo right now!
Xia Anyang walked up to Xia Nuo and warned her,
"Nuo Nuo, throwing a tantrum is useless, you are already in the upper preschool class, you need to be more sensible. Did you listen to what Dad just told you?"
"No, no, I don't want to listen!"
Buried in Chen Xuan's arms with her hands over her ears, Xia Nuo said, "I don't want to listen to Dad anymore!"
"You child..."
Xia Anyang patiently explained to Xia Nuo why he wouldn't let her sister be in the photo, so Chen Xuan roughly understood what had happened.
However, Xia Nuo still seemed unwilling to pay attention to Xia Anyang, and then she lifted her head and acted coquettishly toward Chen Xuan:
"Aunt Chen, Aunt Chen, I just want to go to your house... Please..."
Seeing his daughter become so disobedient, Xia Anyang finally couldn't help but say,
"If that's the case, then go be someone else's child!"
Xia Nuo lifted her head and glared at Xia Anyang angrily:
"Then I will! I'll be You You's child!"
"So... can I take Nuo Nuo home with me? It happens that Nuo Nuo has never been to my house alone before, so let's have dinner at my house today."
Chen Xuan held Xia Nuo, ready to walk toward the direction of their residential area.
And Xia Anyang didn't try to keep her, just standing there watching Xia Nuo in Chen Xuan's arms.
He was waiting for his daughter to give in.
Since Nuo Nuo started attending kindergarten, she had never been to someone else's home before, she would definitely still be scared for the first time.
As long as she softens up and apologizes to Dad, I'll still take her back home...
Chen Xuan got a little further away.
Forget it, as long as she looks up at me, I'll take it as her not wanting to leave Dad, and I'll still take her back home...
They were getting farther and farther away!
Just lift your head! Make a move!
Xia Nuo, buried in Chen Xuan's arms, did not look at Dad at all from beginning to end.
...
It seems she really doesn't want to deal with Dad!
Seeing his daughter stubbornly not turning back and calling for him, Xia Anyang suddenly felt a hollow feeling in his heart, as if something had been dug out of it.
Our You You has really grown up...
[Chen Xuan is very pleased with your growth, Emotional Energy +10]
[Fang Guanghui acknowledges you're more sensible, Emotional Energy +8]
Xia Nuo was still the child who could quickly forget unhappiness and stabilize her emotions.
She felt at home in Fang You's house, where she read picture books with him, watched cartoons, and played with the few toys in Fang You's home.
When Fang Guanghui had dinner ready, the children washed their hands and sat down at the table together.
"Here, Nuo Nuo, help yourself to anything you want. If you can't reach, let Uncle help you!"
"Uncle Fang, you don't have to worry about me not reaching." Xia Nuo said, "You You will help me."
"Haha, that's true..."
As she spoke, Xia Nuo also picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Fang Guanghui's bowl.
"Uncle, you should eat more."
"Ah, my my... Nuo Nuo is so thoughtful, so good, so wonderful!"
So this is what it feels like to have a 'little padded jacket'! I can't wait to start a sub-account.
Fang You was also surprised by Xia Nuo's well-behaved and sensible behavior at the dinner table, and he asked in a low voice: "Why did you serve meat to my dad?"
Xia Nuo explained in a low voice, "When I came in to wash my hands a moment ago, I heard crying from uncle's room. He must have been naughty and been spanked by auntie; his butt must still be hurting. He needs to eat more meat to recover."
"..."
You really are thoughtful, you.
Xia Nuo indeed seemed very familiar in Fang You's home, asking for help to reach dishes she couldn't and acting freely and unreservedly.
Seeing this harmonious scene, Chen Xuan felt extremely happy, truly as if she had gained an extra daughter.
Speaking of which...
Nuo Nuo nursed from me when she was little; I'm like half a mother to her already!
Actually, the two children could have long started calling each other's mothers godmothers, a suggestion Lin Yi had also made to Chen Xuan, and she indeed liked the idea.
But, Chen Xuan had thought about something even more far-off at the time and hadn't immediately agreed.
At the dinner table, Xia Nuo expressed that she had something to say:
"Uncle, auntie, after talking with You You, I know I was wrong today. I will properly apologize to my dad."
"Ah, Nuo Nuo, you really are a good girl, understanding things like this... That's the sign of a good child."
"Nuo Nuo, you're great!" Fang Guanghui clapped on the side.
Xia Nuo smiled, accepting everyone's praise, her expression still serious, very much like a little adult.
"But, I think Daddy also did something wrong."
"He said something that really hurt me inside, telling me to be someone else's child, saying he didn't want me anymore."
With that, she clenched her little fists, "So I think, I should take actual action to let Daddy realize his mistake!"
"You want to make your dad see his mistake... What are you planning to do?"
This was a different plan from what Fang You had suggested to Xia Nuo before; she seemed to have some other quirky idea:
"I've made up my mind... I'm going to listen to what Daddy said!"
Xia Nuo said earnestly, "Starting today, I'm going to be You You's child!"
