Chapter 162 Where do so many cheap dads come from?
Chapter 162 Where do so many cheap dads come from?
After washing up and lying on the bed, Ni Jia was about to read a story book when he noticed that his sister was staring at her watch in a depressed mood.
She reached out and took her daughter into her arms, pinching her little face: "What story do you want to hear tonight?"
Haohao shook his head and pushed the storybook aside.
Ni Jia changed his tone, pinched his throat and asked in SpongeBob's voice: "Why are you unhappy?"
"Because of Dad." My sister answered helpfully.
"Dad has a visitor and won't be coming over tonight."
Haohao turned over and crawled on top of Ni Jia, hiding his face in his clothes and humming softly.
"Don't be angry with him," Ni Hao played with the Rubik's Cube and explained to Li Yucheng in a low voice: "His fish died, so he is in a bad mood."
Haohao leaned against Ni Jia's shoulder and turned around: "What little fish?"
"It's the little fish in the big house," Ni Hao stopped what she was doing and looked at her sister: "You've seen it."
Haohao sat up in surprise: "Why did he die?"
"I don't know." Ni Hao shook his head, "He didn't say."
Obviously his attention was diverted, and he asked with a look of regret and disbelief, "Are they all dead?"
"Three of them died."
How could Ni Hao know so much? Ni Jia thought of her sister asking if there were any carp in the mall in the morning, and suddenly realized that it must be Li Yucheng who said it last night.
"What else did Dad say?" Ni Jia asked.
"He said carp is very expensive and we can't afford it." Ni Hao looked up in confusion: "But I asked Xiao Xin today and he said carp is not expensive."
"Mommy, I want to go to the flower and bird market."
Ni Jia's fingertips trembled slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to touch his ring finger again: "You want to buy fish?"
"Yes." Ni Hao put down the Rubik's Cube and nodded, his eyes bright and full of hope: "Is it okay?"
"It's different." Ni Jia murmured to himself.
Hearing this, Ni Hao's eyebrows drooped, and he twisted his fingers in disappointment: "He also said that."
"what?"
"Dad said there's nothing the same." Ni Hao lowered his head, his face puffed up slightly: "But we haven't looked for it yet."
"Yes." Haohao shook Ni Jia's arm and begged, "Go ahead, let's go look for it together, Mommy!"
All that came to her mind was that night when Li Yucheng hugged her sister and the lonely look on his face when he looked at her. Ni Jia hugged her sister and said nothing.
The children wouldn’t understand, and she didn’t know how to explain the origin of those fish.
In short, what Li Yucheng said was right. Those fish were very expensive. Even if she was given them again, she couldn't guarantee that her mood would be the same as it was then.
After drinking most of a bottle of foreign wine, Tao Wenyao fell on the sofa and kicked Li Yucheng's leg: "You really don't want to drink, tut, it's so boring to be alone."
"Then get out." Li Yucheng pushed the leg away irritably and looked at his watch.
"Oh, you still have such a cheap thing on you," Tao Wenyao hooked his finger: "Hold it out for me to see."
Li Yucheng glanced at him and pulled down his sleeves to cover it: "You can't buy it even if you have money."
"Oh! Do you really think I'm drunk?" Tao Wenyao sat up and rubbed his eyes. "It's just an Apple Watch that's everywhere. Who are you laughing at?"
"My daughter bought it."
"Did your daughter buy it?" Tao Wenyao pouted halfway through his words, with a hint of an auntie's smile on his face: "...That's amazing, your daughter is quite cute."
"How about letting them recognize me as their godfather?" He said, and he was the first to be happy: "Sure, absolutely, it's decided!"
"You wish." Li Yucheng said, "How can there be so many cheap fathers?"
"Who are you scolding?" Tao Wenyao bumped him with his arm: "Who are you scolding?"
"I serve your daughter with delicious food and drinks, and you also let me enjoy myself. It's the best of both worlds!"
"You want to give birth yourself!" Li Yucheng threw the bottle at him: "Drink it quickly and get out."
The bottle nearly flipped over in Tao Wenyao's arms, and he quickly straightened it and said, "Do you still have a sense of public morality?"
"I just suffered a severe emotional trauma, and you want to drive me away?"
"Why didn't I injure you?"
Li Yucheng cursed, stood up, walked to the window, opened the curtain, and glanced at the second floor next door.
Unfortunately, the view was blocked and I couldn't see anything except the dark walls.
"Inhumane," Tao Wenyao shook his head, raised his cup and shook it, then finished another cup in silence: "Do you know about Chen Mi and that man?"
"What?" Li Yucheng turned around and raised his eyelids: "Are you curious?"
Tao Wenyao raised his finger unsteadily, narrowed his eyes, and gestured a little, "A little bit."
Li Yucheng took out his cell phone and tapped twice quickly, and then Tao Wenyao's phone received a message.
He raised his phone in disbelief: "Are you going to drive me to the hotel?"
Li Yucheng crossed his arms, leaned over and curled his lips, "Maybe it's not too late for you to go now."
"Too late for what?" Tao Wenyao said, blinking rapidly: "You said this is... this..."
"That's where they make love." Li Yucheng came over and patted Tao Wenyao on the shoulder: "Be careful and don't drink and drive."
It didn't matter whether the other party went or stayed. After saying that, he went upstairs. When he returned to the room, he took out the iron box from the bottom drawer.
He poured out all the puzzle pieces and sat on the ground to put them together as if no one was around.
He was in a bad mood and needed to calm down in this way without thinking about going next door all the time.
I can't go, because if I go I will just want an answer.
You can't ask, because even if you do, you may not be able to bear the answer.
He put the pieces together one by one, and because he was skilled enough, he quickly finished most of it.
Not long after, Tao Wenyao staggered up and fell headfirst onto his bed. The room was immediately filled with the unpleasant smell of alcohol.
"Go back to sleep."
"You're stupid." Tao Wenyao turned over, facing him, and blinked slowly, "I took the bed, so you have a reason to go over."
"Then go to the guest room."
"Tsk." Tao Wenyao lifted the corner of the quilt and covered himself completely. "You are a grown man, playing jigsaw puzzles late at night. Who are you showing your misery to?"
"Don't waste time, help turn the heat up to 25 degrees, and then get out of here."
Li Yucheng stood by the bed and stared at him for a while, then grabbed the box on the bedside table and threatened him before leaving.
"I'll kill you if you vomit on my bed."
A low laugh came from under the quilt, and Tao Wenyao came out drunkenly and shouted, "You're welcome!"
The first floor was pitch black. Li Yucheng went up to the second floor in the dark without turning on the lights.
He stopped in front of the master bedroom door for a while, but finally couldn't help but open the door and go in. The room was quiet, and there were three small bulges faintly on the bed.
He didn't stay for long, just left his things and went out.
After two knocks on the door, Ni Jia opened her eyes. Her palms were sweating from nervousness and she curled up there, not daring to move.
Now that you are here, why do you want to leave?
She suddenly felt uncontrollably depressed, and she pricked up her ears to listen, but heard no sound...
Li Yucheng seems to have really left...
