Chapter 472 - My Little Cutie (1/2)
Chu Lui took off his coat in distaste and drawled, ”I'll deduct it from your pay.” The smile that just formed on Du Jingtang's face froze. Deduct? Deduct?! Was he going to deduct from his pay for life? He still owed Chu Lui quite a sum of money which was still being deducted from his pay. Was he going to have to work for Chu Lui forever?
The elevator rose, and the one opposite them reached the first floor. The man inside the elevator was carrying a child in one hand and resting his other hand on the handlebar. The child in his arms was staring intently at Du Jingtang.
Du Jingtang turned around abruptly. He hadn't even had the chance to hold Rainy, but the father and daughter had already gotten off the elevator and were heading towards the exit.
”Bro, look.” Du Jingtang pulled Chu Lui's sleeves. ”My little cutie. Isn't she pretty?”
”Mm?” Chu Lui looked back, but he didn't see anything.
Du Jingtang pulled a face. ”She just walked out.”
Chu Lui's gaze landed on Du Jingtang's face. ”I think Aunty gave birth to you with a screw loose.”
Du Jingtang huffed. ”I have a high IQ—and one more screw than others.”
”Mm.” Chu Lui didn't bother arguing with him this time.
”Bro, you agree?”
”I agree.”
”Bro, you have good eyes.”
”No.” Chu Lui rolled his sleeves up and replied, his voice calm but slightly cold, ”An extra screw for you to hang yourself with.”
Du Jingtang, ”…”
Outside the mall, Gao Yi wrapped Rainy inside his coat. Rainy was obedient and quiet inside the warm and silent space where she could even play with her toys.
They became much warmer instantly when they reached home. There were thin streaks of snow on Gao Yi's hair, but Rainy's cheeks were rosy, without any sign of being cold.
Gao Yi was really the perfect father. He poured some water for the child first and then brought her to wash her hands and face. After that, he let her watch some cartoon shows herself. They had both eaten so they didn't feel hungry.
Night came, and Xia Ruoxin finally returned home. The moment she stepped across the door, her leg was hugged by none other than her little daughter.
”Mommy's back! Are you tired?”
Xia Ruoxin squatted down to her daughter's height and rested her palm on Rainy's rosy cheek. Her smile was innocent and adorable. It had been a long time since she saw her daughter so elated.
”What did you do today?” Xia Ruoxin asked. She gestured at her growing hair, which was almost touching below her ears. When New Year's reach, it would be a beautiful head of hair.
