Chapter 357 - This is Fatherly Love (1/2)
”Uncle…” Rainy turned back to look at Gao Yi, batting her beautiful long eyelashes.
”What's wrong?” Gao Yi placed a hand on Rainy head. ”And why is Rainy not calling me 'Daddy' anymore?” Rainy lowered her head and said timidly, making his heart ache for her.
”Because there's no one here, so Rainy can't call you Daddy.”
Gao Yi just stroked her head and patted her cheeks softly. ”Next time, you can call me Daddy, no matter who is or isn't here. Don't you agree? Ruoxin.” He asked Ruoxin. If she didn't agree, the child would be sad, and she couldn't bear that. He couldn't win over the older one, but the younger one was already calling him dad.
Xia Ruoxin was stunned, but seeing Rainy's smiling face, she felt bad for her daughter. She nodded in agreement in the end. The child's desire for a father was stronger than she had thought.
She had already made her suffer a lot, and now that someone was willing to give her fatherly love, was she still going to put a stop to it?
No, she couldn't.
”Yes, Rainy can address Uncle as Daddy anytime you want.” She wiped the grain of rice from her daughter's face and said to her.
”Thank you, Mommy.” Rainy nodded vigorously and wrapped her arms around Xia Ruoxin's neck. ”You're so nice, Mommy.” She said and then kissed Xia Ruoxin on the cheek. Gao Yi looked at the little imp with his arms crossed.
With her mom here, she had already thrown her dad out of her mind, even though he doted on her even more than her mum.
”Rainy, isn't Daddy nice to you?” He was slightly jealous.
Rainy blinked, and her face—which resembled Xia Ruoxin—flashed adorably with hesitation. Xia Ruoxin patted her daughter's cheeks and said, ”Tell Daddy you love him.”
Rainy then turned around and climbed up Gao Yi's legs. Gao Yi lifted her body hurriedly. The little imp really thought she was a monkey. What she did was so dangerous. He might have to spank her later.
”Daddy, Rainy loves you.” She said, followed by a peck on Gao Yi's cheeks. Her soft and childish voice was irresistible, and it made Gao Yi feel more affectionate towards her. She definitely had him in the palm of her hands.
Rainy beamed happily and sat on Gao Yi's legs, forgetting her declaration that she wanted to eat on her own and making Gao Yi feed her. She was young and had a lot of time to learn and grow up.
Xia Ruoxin turned her head away. Rainy was not short of anything now, and she didn't lack anything. Gao Yi had given them everything, including the fatherly love for her daughter.
She had never seen Rainy smiling so merrily before and had never seen her so happy.
Moreover, her… she was looking outside, a smile evident in between her eyes. This was really a blissful life. She didn't want much—just this. She needed more time to think. Gao Yi was a nice guy, but she still hadn't forgotten her past.
