Stop There, Daddy

Wen Shuyue made herself clear enough. All she wanted was just that He Siming acknowledged her as his girlfriend.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Otherwise, how on earth were they related?

He Siming flirted with Wen Shuyue while dating with another girl. No women could bear such a two-timed man.

“You still want to have a blind date, huh? Do you have a crush on Gong Yang?” He Siming pulled a long face with unconcealable anger.

Gong Yang?

Wen Shuyue was startled to hear that name. Why did He Siming drag Gong Yang into their bickering? What had that got to do with Gong Yang?

He Siming suddenly gave a brittle laugh at the sight of Wen Shuyue’s confused face. He shook off her hand fiercely and said in an indifferent tone, “You’re no different from Qin Weiwei. No wonder you were friends, because you are birds of a feather.”

“He Siming, what are you trying to say? I don’t mind you slandering me. But don’t equate me with Qin Weiwei,” Wen Shuyue retorted solemnly. She would have been pushed to the ground if He Siming had shaken her off heavily.

Having a bickering with He Siming didn’t upset Wen Shuyue, but equating her with Qin Weiwei did, since that would be an honer to Qin Weiwei.

He Siming looked horrible with his eyes narrowed. He said coldly to Wen Shuyue, “You know exactly what I mean. Wen Shuyue, not everyone is as terrible as you think and you’re not better than her.”

“Why am I not better than her? Tell me, He Siming. Did anyone say something bad about me? Can you…”

“A clean hand wants no washing. That’s enough of explanation. Believe it or not, she’s a sister to me,” He Siming interrupted Wen Shuyue before she finished her words.

Soon after he finished speaking, he left directly without hesitation. It seemed she was the one who did something wrong.

“Tut!”

Wen Shuyue was pissed off, but she had no way to release her anger. She was the one who should be angry while He Siming somehow got angry as well.

Wen Shuyue had not a clue why he got angry, which bothered her, as if something hadn’t been dealt with.

“Mommy, did you have a quarrel with Daddy again?”

Wen Baobao walked to his mother resignedly and extended his arm to caress his forehead. God knew how much his father disappointed him.

Seeing Wen Baobao walking to her, Wen Shuyue mumbled with a reproachful pout, “It’s not my fault this time. He Siming is insane. That guy went mad at me out of nowhere.”

“Oh, I heard that from Daddy as well. He complained about you the same way as you did.” Wen Baobao actually laughed happily as if it was something intriguing.

Wen Shuyue was rendered speechless.

With the corners of her mouth twisted, she complained inwardly, “Screw you. That’s not even the point. Kids indeed vary from adults in the way they think.”

Whenever Wen Baobao knew his parents had a quarrel, the first thing he would do was definitely to comfort his mother.

He extended his arm to run his mother’s head as he comforted her seriously, “Mommy, don’t be upset. Daddy just said that out of anger. He’s jealous.”

“Jealous?” Wen Shuyue didn’t understand how she made him jealous.

Wen Baobao intended to say something. But suddenly, he rolled his eyes and ran to the door to make sure no one was listening to their conversation. Then he ran back to Wen Shuyue and whispered in her ears, which soothed Wen Shuyue’s nerves a lot.

She compressed her lips and curled up the corners of her mouth. “Is it true? Did he really say that?” asked her.

“Of course. Daddy said you’re the prettiest girl he has ever seen. He’s determined to marry you, so he doesn’t treat you the way he treats other girls.” It didn’t seem to be a lie, judging from that serious look on Wen Baobao’s face.

Women were easy to be fooled and Wen Baobao was serious when saying that, so his mother trusted him completely.

Wen Baobao finally soothed his mother’s tension. He then walked to his father carefully. Seemingly, his father was even angrier. As soon as Wen Baobao entered the study, the depressed atmosphere inside gave chills to Wen Baobao.

He swallowed and then walked to He Siming carefully. “Daddy, are you jealous,” Wen Baobao said with a smile, “because Mommy had a date with that man?”

“Nonsense. Go to your bed now.” He Siming turned sullen. He could have lost his temper if Wen Baobao wasn’t his son.

As the saying went, like father, like son. Wen Baobao inherited boldness from his father. Though Wen Baobao was scared at first, he no longer was, when his father treated him indifferently.

Wen Baobao struggled to climb onto the chair beside him. With a serious look on his childish face, he said, “Daddy, I’ve got to tell you something. But you can’t tell it to anyone, Mommy in particular.”

“What is it?” No sooner had he blurted that out than he realized he had overreacted upon that.

But he couldn’t take back what he had said, so he just shot a horrible glare at his son and listened to him with patience.

Wen Baobao cleared his throat by coughing on purpose before he whispered, “Actually, Mommy is jealous. She told me how much she hates seeing you with your sister. She wants more care from you and you not to cast her aside all the time.”

“No, I never do that. Why doesn’t she ever think about why that video became a heated topic? She’s…”

“Turns out that you made the video a heated topic, huh. I was wondering who was capable to do that. Daddy, you’re really something.”

Before He Siming finished his words, Wen Baobao interrupted hurriedly. His words made He Siming flush. Apparently, He Siming was embarrassed to deny it.

Wen Baobao was happy to see that reaction. He then heaved a sigh and said seriously, “Daddy, with all due respect, even I can tell you and Mommy have a thing for each other. Why do you guys hide your feelings? It has not been a secret already.”
