Chapter 735 - 741: Does Eating It Mean We’ve Made Up?
Chuchu pouted, didn’t answer, but scooped a spoonful of ice cream and handed it to Shang Dongyuan.
She opened her eyes wide, staring at him, as if wanting him to take a bite too.
Shang Dongyuan thought that this child planned to keep not talking to him, but unexpectedly, she took the initiative again.
That day at the hospital, she gave him a lollipop. Now, she was giving him ice cream.
These were her favorite things, yet she was not at all stingy about sharing them with him.
What a kid who knows how to share.
"Is it that if I eat this, we are good again?" Shang Dongyuan smiled and ruffled Chuchu’s head, especially fond of this child.
Chuchu hesitated for a moment, her little head seeming to process the weight of these words, and after a while, she nodded emphatically, looking very serious.
Shang Dongyuan’s smile deepened, and he lowered his head to eat the ice cream Chuchu handed over.
The first sensation was a burst of coldness, followed by the sweetness of fruit, the aroma of fresh milk... it was delicious.
Seeing Shang Dongyuan eat the ice cream, Chuchu finally seemed relieved and sighed.
"Why don’t you want me and mom?" After thinking for a bit, Chuchu asked the doubt in her heart.
When she was bullied as a child, others said it was because her father didn’t want her and her mom, that they were abandoned.
She really wanted to know, was it because she wasn’t obedient?
Shang Dongyuan was stunned for a moment, not expecting such a young child to ask such sharp and serious questions.
Upon closer look, he could even see his reflection in her calm eyes.
No wonder he felt close to this child, it turned out she was like him.
Realizing this, Shang Dongyuan grew even more fond of the child.
"It was beyond my control." He replied with four words, words even adults might not understand.
Yet, Chuchu breathed out another sigh of relief.
Shortly thereafter, she began to smile, like a blooming marguerite, tender pink.
At least, dad didn’t leave because he didn’t like her.
At least, dad has now returned.
At least, with dad here, mom wouldn’t have to struggle so much in taking care of her...
"Can you promise me one thing? If you promise me, I’ll call you dad." These two words, Chuchu had always held back, no matter how Chu Xiaoge coaxed or threatened, she wouldn’t say them.
Unexpectedly, now she directly took them out as a deal.
Shang Dongyuan raised his eyebrows in surprise, "What is it?"
Even her way of negotiating was exactly like his...
"You must take good care of my mom, don’t let her be sad."
For such words to come out of a five-year-old’s mouth, it was indeed shocking.
Shang Dongyuan was taken aback for a moment, then he fell silent for a long time before finally turning to look at Chu Xiaoge, who was still on the phone not far away.
Gotta admit, she really raised a good daughter.
Someone who could raise such a child could not be bad herself.
And this kind of woman...
When Shang Dongyuan looked at Chu Xiaoge, Chuchu’s tender voice echoed again in his ears.
"Mom took care of Chuchu growing up all by herself, it was really not easy. She worked and took care of Chuchu, didn’t want to eat or wear things for herself, and wouldn’t sell the things her good friends gave her. Mom really is a good person... If mom likes you, then Chuchu will like you too. If mom dislikes you, then Chuchu will dislike you too." Chuchu’s outlook on life was very simple. What mom likes, she will like. What mom dislikes, she will dislike too!
