Chapter 96
Chu Feng was nonchalantly walking away with Duo Duo without taking any credit for what he did. After taking her sightseeing near the canal in Jianglin, letting her eat barbeque and mini lobsters that Yun Muqing had forbidden her from eating, and even getting her some helium balloons, Chu Feng finally took Duo Duo home. The moment they stepped into the door, a wistful voice spoke to them, “I see that you two still managed to find your way home.”
Yun Muqing was standing at the door with her arms crossed and was wearing a furious expression as she glared at the mischievous father-daughter duo before her. A terrifying aura was emanating from her entire body. “Where have you two been? Yun Duo, did I not say that you must come home immediately after school every day?”
“Shoot. We’ve been having so much fun that we forgot about her.”
Chu Feng’s smile froze on his face. Meanwhile, Duo Duo’s eyes became shifty before she suddenly yelled, “It was Daddy who insisted on taking me! He insisted on buying me toys, mini lobsters, and cotton candy!” She put on a pitiful face, betraying Chu Feng without hesitation. “It’s all Daddy’s fault. I have nothing to do with this.”
What just happened? Chu Feng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when his daughter sold him out. He had no choice but to endure this betrayal.
Yun Muqing raised an eyebrow and flew into a rage. “You two were having the time of your lives, eating and playing to your hearts’ content while I waited here for you without taking a single bite. I was thinking of taking you two to Happy Valley on the weekends, but since you two had so much fun, I guess we don’t need to go there after all!” Yun Muqing huffed and pointed at Duo Duo. “You have tuition class this weekend. As for you, Chu Feng, how dare you take Duo Duo to the hawker stalls? What if she has a stomachache afterward?”
Duo Duo looked even more pitiful now, and she looked at Chu Feng for help. Alas, Chu Feng himself was in hot water, so all he could do was to give her a sympathetic gaze.
“Mommy, don’t be mad.” Duo Duo tiptoed over and swung Yun Muqing’s arm from side to side, speaking in a soft tone. “I promise I will listen to you and never do something like this again. Let’s go have fun this weekend, please? I really want to go to Happy Valley.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Yun Muqing wasn’t even half as mad anymore, but she still pouted and harrumphed with arrogance. “It depends on how you two make it up to me. I still haven’t had my dinner.”
Immediately, Chu Feng stood and walked to the kitchen. “I’ll go cook.”
“I-I will cut fruits for Mummy,” Duo Duo hesitated, trailing behind Chu Feng.
A smile appeared on Yun Muqing’s pretty face. Leaning on the rocking chair with her curvy figure and pale arms, she instructed, “Chu Feng, less oil and spice, please. I’m on a diet, so I’ll need to watch what I eat. Duo Duo, put more sugar and milk in the fruit plate, so I can replenish my collagen as they are good for the skin.” Yun Muqing stretched lazily, revealing half of her slender, supple, and flawless waist. It was nice to be able to order people around like some sort of rich housewife without having to do anything, but it was troublesome for the ones in the kitchen.
Duo Duo’s chubby hands held on to the fruit knife as she cut the fruits while standing on a little stool. She made a mess of everything as she cut them into pieces of uneven sizes and got fruit juice all over her hands and face. Chu Feng had been watching from the sidelines the whole time to make sure she didn’t get hurt, but he merely smiled at the sight instead of lifting a finger to help. After all, she was a wolf in sheep’s clothing and must be taught a lesson for betraying him.
Finally, the girl pouted when she couldn’t take it anymore. She hopped off the stool and tugged on Chu Feng’s shirt. “Daddy, please cut the fruits for me.”
“Why should I? Your task, your responsibility.” Chu Feng said pettily as he absentmindedly put a pot of fragrant fish stew on simmer. “Besides, don’t think that I forgot about your betrayal just now.”
“I’m quite loyal to you, Daddy, ” Duo Duo lifted her head up high and said with delight. “At least I didn’t tell Mommy about your little gold stash.”
Chu Feng was speechless. Who the heck told this child about it?
“Hehe, the old man told me it cost a lot to buy Kennedy Dreamland for me. How much money have you stashed away without Mommy‘s knowledge?” Duo Duo said smugly. “You’ll be dead meat if I tell Mommy. Xiao Hu’s father got beaten up by his mother because he also had hidden his own money…”
