Chapter 235 - 235: I Can’t Wait For It Too (1/2)
”Lillie, you two should come often to the house. Your mother has been nagging me non stop to make you two visit. Your brother was also whining, though he does not show it,” Mr. Bai informed his daughter with a tired sigh, halfheartedly complaining.
It's alright if it's only Lillie who visits, why invite this punk too? Does his wife want him to go to jail? Mr. Bai grumbles in his mind.
”En. I'll also bring Storm so that he'll see you guys too.”
”Oh? Storm's back?” Last time Mr. Bai visited Tranquil Villa, Storm was coincidentally sleeping at his little cave in the forest behind the house.
Lillie nodded. ”I got him back for a little while already. Sorry if I forgot to mention it.”
”No worries, no worries. I'm sure you were busy,” Mr. Bai waved his hand in dismissal. ”I'll see you soon, okay?”
Lillie closes her eyes when her father went to kiss her forehead.
”Thank you for clearing my good friend's name, little flower.” Mr. Bai hugged her. Words could not describe how thankful he is to have such filial daughter.
”If it weren't for you and your friends, I would've carried this grudge to my grave, ignorant of the truth.” Mr. Bai pulled away and smiled, his face tranquilized.
”I'm so proud of you, my little flower.”
Ethan observed their sweet interaction from the sidelines with a soft smile. In the near future, if he had a daughter with Lillie, he's certain that she'll be a precious gem in his eyes like his mother.
He would dote on her, pamper her with love, adore her, and give anything her heart desires. He'll also not forget to hunt some foolish punks who tries to court her, wring the neck of the boy who steps within 10 feet from her, torture those who make her let out a single tear, and make them eat bullets for breakfast as their final meal!
This dragon won't allow anyone hurt precious baby girl! He swore he will never let those who bully her see another daylight!
”Ethan?” Lillie snapped her fingers in front his face.
Ethan hummed, taking his attention back to Lillie.
”Let's go home?”
Ethan looked at where Mr. Bai was standing, but saw him nowhere.
”He went first.” Lillie answered as they walked out of the hotel. ”Were you listening to what we were discussing?”
Ethan nodded honestly, ”When would you like to visit?”
Although she's not expressing it openly, Ethan knows how much Lillie loves her family.
Lillie paused to think, humming as she did. ”Tomorrow is a no go...are you free next Wednesday?”
”Sure.” I'm always free whenever you want, is something he wants to say but his tongue held back. ”I'll inform Ming Lian to arrange my schedule for it.”
The two stood by the hotel's entrance, waiting for the valet to fetch their car.
”Oh wait, before we go home, could we stop at the donut shop from before? There's a branch of it along the way.” Lillie only had wine in the party.
”Whatever you want.” Ethan earnestly replied as he kissed her hand.
The two entered the car and drove off to Lillie's now favorite donut shop.
