Chapter 153 - Little Fish Baby
"Can you give me a big snack gift pack?" Chu Yu asked softly.
Xia Han turned her head to look at him, the expression on her face was creased tight, obviously dissatisfied with's question.
How could he talk to her in such a nonchalant manner? It had clearly been several days since she last heard from him.
When Chu Yu saw her expression flash past, his heart immediately skipped a beat. The kind of panic that had always appeared in his nightmares, seemed to have appeared again.
"Let me tell you a story and exchange it for a large gift pack."
Xia Han ignored him and her voice became extremely gentle, as if she was afraid of scaring him.
"This story is a little scary. At least for me, it has always been like a nightmare haunting me, making me doubt my entire life." Chu Yu continued, although he tried his best to maintain his state of mind, to not become complicated.
However, his tail was still trembling, as if he couldn't control it.
Xia Han had previously been trained to be very sensitive to auras and tremors. Moreover, Chu Yu's words were obviously very solemn, causing her to lose all signs of anger. On the contrary, she was even more worried.
"Go ahead." She turned to face him, hands on her knees, as if she were listening.
Seeing that she had finally turned her face around and even spoke to him in such a calm manner, without that strange tone of voice, Chu Yu immediately felt a surge of joy in his heart.
He gently raised his hand and caressed Xia Han's face.
The man's finger strength was very gentle, as if he was touching a fragile object, afraid that he would hurt Xia Han with just a little bit of force.
"Hurry up and say it, don't think of using such a gentle attack to make me soften my heart." Xia Han's brows tightly knitted together. She immediately raised her hand and grabbed onto Chu Yu's wrist, not allowing him to act rashly on her face.
Chu Yu heard the impatience in his tone and could not help but chuckle.
"I used to disappear because I found out I had a daughter."
As Chu Yu's words fell, Xia Han couldn't help but blink. She felt as if her heartbeat had stopped, and she couldn't even catch her breath; she felt like she was about to suffocate.
"What do you have?" Her voice trembled as she asked the question.
"I have a daughter and am fifteen years old. I never knew she existed. I was eighteen at the time, and I didn't expect to have this child. Until some time ago, her mother came to me and told me that she wanted to see me. She was not well, she was in the nursing home, and she had to be rescued. When we got back from the party that day, I got a call from the nursing home and knew she was going to have surgery again. It was dangerous, so I went. "She's been making a ruckus for the past few days. I can't bring myself to come back …"
When Chu Yu said these words, he did not beat around the bush nor did he try to defend himself.
Xia Han seemed to be extremely terrified, she was completely dumbstruck on the spot, and did not know what to do.
Her boyfriend who had been getting along well suddenly disappeared for a few days and then reappeared. Before she could finish losing her temper, she suddenly ran over to tell her that he had a fifteen-year-old daughter.
This daughter wasn't that much younger than her, she could definitely be a sister now.
"Xia Han, I never thought that I would have a daughter. In the past thirty odd years, I have never been informed by anyone. Her mother was also very young at the time, only a few years older than me. I didn't know that she had a child and even gave birth to it.
When Chu Yu said these words, his voice was filled with confusion. Xia Han raised her head to look at him, and sure enough, the expression on his face was at a loss of what to do.
Even though he was an uncle in his thirties, a real man who had been in the entertainment circle for so many years, he still received a huge blow when he found out about this.
When he had this kid, he was only an adult and probably still in high school.
"Say something. I'm a bit flustered by your silence." Chu Yu's hand rested on his shoulder, as though he wanted to see the dazed Xia Han wake up.
She opened her eyes wide, looking at Chu Yu with no expression on her face.
Her relationship with Chu Yu was extremely stable. Other than the few times when he had matters to attend to and had to leave, he could not accompany her when he had the time to accompany her.
Other than the thing that made her angry, Chu Yu was basically perfect.
When Xia Han was tired, he would automatically extend a helping hand, regardless of the reward.
He would speak sweet words to her, he would tell her that he liked her very much, and he would treat her very well in the daily interactions.
She had always felt that Chu Yu was the perfect lover, and she had always relied on him to slowly remove the panic in her heart. After all, she did not belong to this world.
She was an outsider. She had almost nothing to do with this world. Perhaps one day, when she woke up, she would have already left this place.
After finally falling in love with Chu Yu, she felt a sense of realism, as if he was finally tied up in this world.
But now this man, whom she had once wanted to spend her life with, had told her that he had a daughter and that he was fifteen years old.
She really wanted to say: "Oh, the fuck!"
"I'm more panicked than you. I never would have imagined that you would have a daughter, and that you would be fifteen years old." Xia Han shook her head. The expression on her face could not be described as pretty. Her face was filled with surprise, like a frightened little sparrow.
Seeing her like this, Chu Yu actually revealed a smile on his face.
"Don't be anxious or flustered. She is my daughter, so it doesn't affect your relationship with me." Chu Yu whispered.
Xia Han then reacted, she immediately shook her head, obviously unable to accept this.
"No, no, you have to let me think about it. Don't say anything now, just leave me alone."
As she spoke, she pulled Chu Yu up, and directly pushed him towards the door.
"Xia Han."
"Let me calm down first." Xia Han did not want to hear anything, but felt that the news came too suddenly.
When the door closed, Chu Yu stood outside with a helpless and vexed expression on his face.
He had known this would happen, because his life had been disrupted by the appearance of his so-called daughter.
In fact, if not for Xia Han and Lu Xin appearing together, he probably wouldn't be so distressed.
If Lu Xin had appeared a little later, when his relationship with Xia Han had stabilized, or even if they were to get married, perhaps Lu Xin's existence would no longer be a threat at all.
Or perhaps before Xia Han appeared, she had already settled the matter of Lu Xin properly, so Xia Han should be easier to accept.
However, at this time, the two of them appeared at the same time, and he was unable to deal with them together.
His favorite girlfriend and his daughter, a fifteen-year-old girl, seemed to be born incompatible. No matter who he abandoned, it would be impossible. However, it was as if he had to abandon one of them in his current situation.
Chu Yu's head was about to explode. He stood outside for a while, but Xia Han did not open the door for him.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Xia Han. He heaved a long sigh and went back home.
Xia Han lied on the sofa with her hands under her chin, her eyebrows knitted and a conflicted expression on her face.
Fish Baby actually really had a little Fish Baby, but this little Fish Baby's mother wasn't her. Furthermore, this little Fish Baby was born fifteen years ago.
What had she been doing fifteen years ago? Oh, she was only about ten years old and fighting with the rearing mama over the complicated rules of the palace. She only wanted to eat, drink, and have fun.
She took out her phone from her pocket and saw the WeChat from Chu Yu.
— Don't think too much about it. I made a mistake when I was eighteen, and you don't want a thirty-three-year-old me to repay it. After all, I haven't met you in my previous life. You have to save me, baby Xia.
Seeing that he had sent a WeChat with the familiar nickname of "baby Xia", Xia Han's brows still remained knitted.
Furthermore, she didn't want to contact Chu Yu at the moment, but it wasn't good for her to think about it alone. She might as well look through her contact list to find someone she knows to listen to her worries.
Her line of sight was fixed on the name of the circle. Every time something happened to her, the circle would be the best listener, but now she didn't want to look for a circle anymore.
Connecting with the previous two laps, it seemed that Chu Yu suddenly finding his daughter was something that the laps knew about.
However, he had never told her about it. Even if she had asked about it, the circles would still take a roundabout way and only let her ask Chu Yu.
"It's not good for a girl friend to be a boyfriend's subordinate. The boss has to let her cover up every time he cheats. All of them will die together in love and friendship."
She pursed her lips, but no one knew who she was talking to.
In the end, she looked around, and eventually dialed Li Yue's number.
"Hey, young miss, you finally found me. I was watching your live broadcast video. "You didn't even notify me at the live broadcast and were even doing food broadcasts, causing me to eat two more boxes of instant noodles today. My previous efforts to lose weight have been in vain."
When Li Yue talked to her, his stuttering was unclear, maybe his mouth was still stuffed with instant noodles.
Xia Han curled her lips. Listening to Li Yue's familiar voice and the relative ridicule, and thinking of Chu Yu and those two people in the circle who had no conscience, she felt a wave of bitterness in her heart.
"The more time passes, the more I realize that in this world, you are the best person for me!" Xia Han's voice trembled a little. It was as if she was purely sighing with emotion, as if she had met with some sort of grievance.
"Xia Han, what's wrong with you? Suddenly praising me, I feel a little scared. Could it be that I've suffered some sort of provocation? "
Li Yue was so scared that he didn't even eat his instant noodles, instead he held his phone and talked to her wholeheartedly.
"Among the lovelorn and the mother, which do you choose?"
