Qin Gengxin, whose heart had been softened by the child early in the morning, sat up in bed and didn't seem to insist on getting up. He looked back at Qin Wenqian's pouty mouth and saw the anticipation and fear in his daughter's eyes, as if she were afraid that he would soon be gone.
Qin Gengxin faintly sighed and gently rubbed Qin Wenqian's head, "Be good, daddy won't leave."
It was supposed to be a warm and cozy scene…
With Dalisay's usual emotional illness of crying while watching TV shows, she was definitely wiping away her tears right now. But none of that happened. She stood beside Xian Guiying and kept covering her mouth with her hands to suppress her laughter.
Xian Guiying stared at Qin Gengxin's ghost-like face as soon as she entered the bedroom. After holding on for a while, her eyelids twitched. She glanced at Qin Wenqian, who hugged Qin Gengxin's arm and asked, "Qianqian, did you do this?"
She pointed at Qin Gengxin's face.
Qin Gengxin then remembered that he wanted to get out of bed to see his face in the bathroom. Hearing Xian Guiying's words, he raised his eyebrow and wiped his face with his hand.
He looked down and saw a patch of red on his palm.
He turned around and saw a red watercolor pen in Qin Wenqian's hand. Bad feelings appeared in his heart.
Qin Wenqian immediately sat down next to him and said with an innocent smile, "Very beautiful!"
Qin Gengxin was about to get up to look, but Qin Wenqian quickly rushed over and tugged the corner of his shirt. "Daddy ~ Daddy ~"
Qin Gengxin felt his scalp tingling from Dalisay's stifled laughter and Xian Guiying's cold yet distant smile. In the end, she told Dalisay to bring her a small mirror.
Dalisay obediently went to bring Xian Guiying's usual small mirror with mischievous smiles then handed it to Qin Gengxin.
Qin Gengxin looked at them with a weird expression, rolled his eyes, then opened the small lid of the mirror and lowered his head to take a look.
"Hee hee, Daddy! Is it good?" Qin Wenqian immediately climbed into his lap and found a comfortable position on his lap. She looked up at him with an expression of hope, waved a watercolor pen in her hand, and asked, "Is it beautiful?"
Three lines were drawn on his forehead.
There's a vertical bar in the middle.
A circle of unknown objects was drawn on the left side of the face, while on the right side was a row of round, non-circular, non-square things.
Above the chin, a red beauty mole!
The worst part was!
Qin Gengxin looked at his hand that was holding the mirror.
His large, manly nails were covered in what looked like nail polish.
The corners of his mouth twitched. Qin Wenqian was still leaning on his chest, wiggling her body up and down, as if she didn't want her father to ignore her. "Daddy! Daddy! Isn't it beautiful!?"
Resisting the urge to spit out the curses, Qin Gengxin was so angry that he started laughing. He put down the mirror and glanced at Xian Guiying, who was standing by the door with an indifferent expression. "Xian Guiying, do you really have a grudge against me?"
Xian Guiying glared at him. "I didn't draw it."
Seeing Qin Gengxin's angry expression, Xian Guiying couldn't help but laugh. She forced a cold expression on her face again before turning towards Dalisay, who was still holding back her laughter.
Dalisay finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She quickly ran into the bathroom, washed the towel with cold water, and handed it to Qin Gengxin. "Mr. Qin, hurry and wipe it."
Qin Wenqian raised her head and looked at Dalisay with a confused expression. "Auntie Dalisay, why wiped it? Does it don't look good?"
"Ugh …" Seeing the innocence in the child's eyes, Dalisay just turned to Qin Gengxin for help.
Qin Gengxin looked at his fingernails that had been painted like a woman and couldn't help but look at Xian Guiying. Looking at the clean nails with no nail polish at all, he remembered that Darna usually liked to dress up and often wore these items.
In the end, Qin Gengxin took the towel to wipe his hands. Then he passed the towel and mirror to Dalisay and said, "Anyway, it's already like this, I'll wipe it later."
Dalisay picked up a towel and returned to the bathroom.
Qin Gengxin lowered his head to look at Qin Wenqian, who was sitting on his lap. The corners of his lips curved as he rubbed her head.
This was his daughter.
For the past two years, he had avoided looking at her, and he can only see her small figure in the photo. Now, she was right in front of him.
Qin Gengxin admitted that children were indeed the most melting thing in the world. Not to mention that he's not a great villain; even a bad person will stop and hugged his daughter when they saw her
Qin Gengxin looked at Qin Wenqian, his hands caressing the soft hair on her head. Qin Wenqian smiled as she pulled his hand away, hugged him, and continued to draw the back of his hand with a watercolor pen.
It seemed to be her very favorite game to draw something on her father like this.
Qin Gengxin didn't move but lowered his head to look at the picture Qin Wenqian was drawing. He noticed that she was just drawing randomly. He paused for a moment, then turned his gaze to Xian Guiying, who had been standing there the whole time, silently watching him and her daughter.
"Now that the child is being taught early, why has Qianqian not gone to kindergarten yet?" He asked.
According to what he knew, many parents would send their children to kindergarten at this age. Although the children were young, and they couldn't learn much in the beginning, they could at least get to know people outside very early and learn good social relationships from a young age.
Qin Gengxin's expression was a little heavy, but he didn't have any intention of blaming Xian Guiying all. As a father, he hadn't seen his child in two years, so no matter what method Xian Guiying used to teach the child, he really didn't have any right to criticize her.
But he really couldn't understand. With Xian Guiying's strong temper, even if she doted on her daughter, she wouldn't allow her daughter to play with the servants at home every day. With her character, she should have sent her child to kindergarten earlier to be educated and contacted with the outside world.
While he allowed Qin Wenqian to continue hugging his hand and draw on it, he also looked at Xian Guiying with silent doubt in his eyes.
