Chapter 404: 121: Better looking than a fairy, the mother-daughter duo who act _2

A hint of sweetness spread in his mouth, and the man suddenly began to sob quietly.

How useless he was!

Not only was he useless, but he had also harmed such a good child.

Seeing that the man’s emotions were slowly stabilizing, Fuwa cautiously asked, “Dad, can I stay now?”

He didn’t want a good life.

He just wanted to stay with his father.

As long as his father was there, home was there.

Even if his father was lying in bed, he was the only pillar of support in his heart.

“You’re not leaving!” The man forced out through his stiff throat, “I won’t chase you away anymore.”

“Really?” Fuwa immediately brightened up, feeling like the whole world had lit up.

“Hmm.” The man nodded.

Fuwa extended a small pinkie finger towards the man, “Dad, let’s make a pinkie promise.”

The man also extended his hand to Fuwa.

As the father and son held finger to finger, the man asked, “Fuwa, where did you get this candy?”

Fuwa said, “Dad, this candy was given to me by a very beautiful sister. She has a very pleasant voice … just like mom in my dreams.”

Fuwa had never seen his mother, but in his imagination, his mother was supposed to be a very gentle person.

“Really?” The man looked at Fuwa.

“Hmm.” Fuwa nodded.

The man went on to say, “Fuwa, do you remember what your father told you?”

Fuwa replied, “Stealing an egg won’t fill you up, but a bad reputation lasts a lifetime.”

The man continued, “Fuwa, remember, no matter when, we can’t do anything illegal!”

If you do wrong things too often, you will face retribution.

He couldn’t let his son follow his old path.

Fuwa nodded obediently, “I know, Dad.”

“I want to rest, Fuwa, you go out to play,” the man closed his eyes.

Fuwa picked up the worn-out medicine jar next to the bed, “I’m going to boil the medicine.”

“Wait.” The man reopened his eyes.

“Dad, what’s wrong?” Fuwa looked back.

The man continued, “Take the candy with you.”

Fuwa laughed and said, “Dad, I don’t like sweets.”

He wasn’t fooling anyone; he just wanted to leave the sweets for his handicapped father. The man closed his eyes in pain. How could such a sensible child have such a useless father?

“Take it now!” The man’s expression suddenly turned fierce, “or you can get the hell out of here!”

Fuwa shivered in fear, quickly came over and put the candy into his pocket, “Dad, don’t be angry, don’t chase me away.”

The man closed his eyes and began to sleep.

“Dad, remember to call me if you need anything.” Fuwa quietly left the room and went to the open-air kitchen to boil the medicine.

Looking at the two remaining packets of herbal medicine, Fuwa sighed.

The medicine would only last for two more days…

What to do?

While boiling the medicine, Fuwa grabbed a small handful of coarse rice from the bottom of the rice vat and put it on a broken tile to make porridge.

In a short while, the porridge was ready, the strong smell of herbal medicine was mixed with the faint aroma of rice.

Fuwa spooned all the cooked porridge into a big bowl, dipped his finger in the bowl, smeared some rice soup around his mouth, and then carried the porridge into the room.

“Dad, it’s time to eat.” Fuwa spoke gently.

Although the man’s legs were paralyzed, his upper body and hands were still normal. He propped up his upper body to sit up, “Why is there only one bowl?”

“I have already eaten!” Fuwa burped, “I ate two large bowls of porridge! If you don’t believe me, check my mouth.”

There was indeed some rice soup around Fuwa’s mouth.

Only then did the man feel relieved and started to eat his porridge.

“Dad, I’ll go out now.”

Fuwa went outside, scooped up a large spoonful of cold water from the vat, and drank it all at once.

Drink more water, eat a piece of candy, and you won’t feel hungry.

…

Ni Yang rode her bicycle to school.

Today was the day the transfer student grades were released, so the campus was crowded with people.

From a distance, Han Xiaoyu saw Ni Yang, who stood out from the crowd. She rushed over, “Ni Yang! Ni Yang!”

“Xiaoyu.” Ni Yang gave a slight smile.

“Congratulations Ni Yang!”

“For what?” Ni Yang looked at Han Xiaoyu with confusion.

Han Xiaoyu was surprised and said, “Ni Yang, you don’t know yet?”

“Know what?” Ni Yang was even more puzzled.

“First place!” Han Xiaoyu excitedly said, “You got the first place!”

Although Ni Yang had the foundation from her past life and was quite confident about this test, she really hadn’t expected that she would achieve first place.
