Ch.11 The Wealthy Husband and Intelligent Daughter (4)

She lifted the back of her chubby hand and rubbed her eyes, staring carefully at the taxi driving over from not far.

She immediately sat up straight and patted her butt, standing up and saying in surprise, “Big Huang! My mummy’s back!”

“Woof!”

She looked at the yellow puppy and murmured to herself, “Your mummy is at Grandfather Third’s house, next to our house. You must not know the bitterness of missing your mummy.”

The taxi stopped in front of her car and a tall man walked out, carrying his briefcase.

The originally eager little bun became disappointed right away and she ran over with her short legs, even climbing into the taxi and attempted to see if her mummy was hiding in the corners.

The driver yelled at little bun and said, “Young girl, what’s the matter with you? Get off quickly!”

The driver from the city disliked the dirty young girls from the villages and immediately scolded her.

The young girl jumped out of the taxi and glared at the driver, saying, “Why are you yelling at me? I have a mummy! My mummy can also swear!”

As she said this, tears immediately lingered in her round eyes, but she tried her best to control her emotions, not allowing the tears to fall. She looked stubbornly at the driver.

Lu Ting observed the little girl. She was only up to his thigh and she wore an unsophisticated handmade cotton-padded jacket with a dirty white apron tied around her. However, her face and hands were very clean. Because it was humid and dry in autumn and winter, her chubby cheeks gradually turned red and the braided pigtails on her head made her look less sophisticated.

Lu Ting glanced at the yard and then looked down at her, asking, “Little girl, may I ask for the directions to Lin Yu’s house?”

Little bun didn’t get to see her mummy coming back, so she wasn’t in a delightful mood. She raised her head at the man and said unhappily, “My teacher told me that it’s very impolite to call your parents by their name! You can’t call my grandma that!”

“Lin Yu is your grandma?” Lu Ting looked carefully at her as complicated feelings arose in his heart.

Little bun glanced around and poked Lu Ting’s knee and then gestured for him to bend down, saying, “Come closer and I’ll tell you. Grandma doesn’t want me to tell others that she is my grandma.”

Clearly, the little girl wasn’t that old. While saying this, she had to try to structure her sentence in order to express what she was trying to say clearly.

“Oh?” Lu Ting raised his eyebrows and bent down.

The little girl immediately tugged on his ears with her chubby hands, pulling him over.

With her lips on the man’s ears, she said softly, “Let me tell you. My mummy is a celebrity and she’s amazing. Ok, now that I told you this secret, you can’t tell anyone else.”

When the little girl tugged on his ears, he knitted his eyebrows tightly. But hearing the little girl’s soft and adorable voice, his heart melted.

“Pinky swear with me!”

The little girl extended her pinky as Lu Ting stared at her short and chubby finger, laughing. However, he did the same.

The little girl tugged his finger with difficulty and said slowly, “Pinky swear! If you change your mind, you’ll  —”

“Will what?”

The little girl looked around with her jet-black eyes, saying, “Then you’ll be my daddy!”

Lu Ting was dumbstruck.

His expression made the little girl feel very uncomfortable. She immediately tugged the man’s ears and said in a childish voice, “My mummy is very beautiful. Don’t you dare dislike my mummy!”

Lu Ting was speechless. No one has ever tugged on his ears like her before.

He softly coughed and knitted his eyebrows, asking, “Do you say that to every unfamiliar man?”

“No.” The little girl laughed and revealed her white sparkling teeth. She said unclearly, “I only say this to handsome big brothers!”

Lu Ting nodded and asked again, “It seems like this is fate. Why don’t you give me a strand of your hair as a present?”

Without another word, little bun tugged a strand of her hair off and carefully placed it in the man’s wide palm. Then, she curled the man’s palm into a fist and said in seriousness, “This is my hair. Hold onto it. It’s our token. In the future, when I grow up, bring this to me, so you can marry my mother.”

She said seriously as if swearing an oath with a man.

No matter how upset Lu Ting was, in front of this little girl, he couldn’t act upon it anymore. He rubbed the little girl’s head with his other hand and said, “I definitely will if we are fated”

The author has something to say:

Little bun is so cute. Sobs. I feel like both father and daughter are adorable.
