A faint sound of sobbing lingered in the air, halting Xu Li's steps. With a sigh, he closed the study door and added a few logs to the fireplace. Only then did he set aside the book that had been shielding his daughter's face and wiped away her tears. "Tell me, little princess, why are you crying?"
Zhuo Ya said nothing, merely opening her arms wide. Xu Li pulled her into a sitting position and gently patted her back. "Is it because of Daddy's anger?"
"Mm-hmm."
"Is it because Daddy was too busy entertaining Angelina and didn't consider your feelings?"
"Mm-hmm."
"Should Daddy apologize to you?"
"Mm-hmm."
The little girl clung tightly to her father's neck. "I don't like Angelina. When she comes, everyone gathers around her, and look at how smug she is! It makes me so mad to see my brother acting like such a fool."
"Silly girl, Angelina is your brother's girlfriend."
Xu Li lightly tapped the back of her head. "It's her first time visiting. If Daddy, as the head of the family, isn't welcoming, Angelina might think Daddy looks down on her. What if that ruins your brother's relationship with her? He would be heartbroken!"
"But Daddy is too enthusiastic."
Zhuo Ya puffed up her cheeks in frustration. "I also want to eat wagyu beef! Daddy promised we would all have it together, but as soon as Angelina came, you killed one just for her! I'm your daughter; she isn't! You're so biased!"
"And Mommy and Brother are the same!"
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face again. "Before, Mommy and Brother always surrounded me, but now that Angelina is here, they ignore me! I am their daughter; I am their sister! It's so unfair!"
Xu Li could only smile silently, gently patting her back. Since she was little, Zhuo Ya had been the jewel of the family, which had made her accustomed to being the center of attention. Suddenly having that habit disrupted was hard for the little girl to understand; with time, she would get used to it.
Listening to Zhuo Ya's steady breathing, he gently rose to take her to her room for some rest. However, the little girl tightened her grip on his large hand. "Daddy, will you tell me a story?"
"First, let me tuck you in and then I'll stay by your side to tell you a story."
"No!"
Zhuo Ya squirmed a bit. "I want you to tell me a story right here, just like when I was little! After I came back from Irkutsk, you would always hold me in your arms on the chair and tell me stories all night long instead of just brushing me off like this."
He smiled lovingly and grabbed a wool blanket from beside him to cover his daughter before sitting down in another chair with a book in hand.
On the lush green grass, Boreas and Persephone were happily frolicking...
(This book was originally intended to make up for my regrets. I had ideas but no clue before, so the progress of this book was relatively fast, and I left behind a lot of interesting content. It’s hard to write now, so this is it. Calculated based on four updates a day, I can still hold on for more than ten days before I have no manuscripts saved. I will go to Taizhou for hospitalization today, and if all goes well I will be able to go home in five or six days. If the examination shows normal during this period, I will update ten chapters that day, one to celebrate, and the other to thank everyone for watching and giving gifts, which can also be regarded as a humble thank you gift!) Good night and wish you a dream!
