Chapter 575 - GRACIOUS LITTLE LADY (2/2)

”Are you sure?” Akira asked.

”Alright,” Kaito said directly.

Kaito looked at Akira with a devious smile before turning to Hu Lei and Zhong Feng.

”No backsies.” He said without a hint of maturity.

In the end, Hu Lei and Zhong Feng were left in the house with the fussy baby while Kaito and Akira went out. In truth, they did not go far away because Taiki had warned them about the volatility of Martial island during the championships.

Instead, they walked to the beach and settled in the hammocks Taiki built for them for relaxation. They rarely got a chance to use them, especially in the cool breeze of the night.

”How do you think the two of them are doing with Little Hikari?” Kaito asked as the two of them squeezed into one hammock.

”They are probably trying to placate her with toys.” Akira laughed.

”I think they are giving her a lecture,” Kaito said.

The two of them laughed. Their little darling had a princess mentality. She would only calm down if she wanted. The thing that made her happiest was being carried in someone's arms and being rocked. Otherwise, when she was left alone, she would cry.

In the house, Hu Lei was facing Hikari with stern eyes. The scene was quite hilarious because both of them were seated on the floor. Some tear streaks could still be seen on the baby's face, but she was no longer crying.

”You have to be an independent girl. You cannot always expect someone to be there to hold your hand. Life is tough, so a lady has to be gracious, regardless of their situation. Now, wipe your tears.” She said while putting a soft handkerchief in Hikari's hand.

She lifted the plumb hand to demonstrate how to wipe the tears. Surprisingly, the half-a-year old baby seemed to understand.

”When tears fall from your eyes, wipe them. Do not leave streaks on your face, alright? Otherwise, you will not look as cute as me.” She said.

Zhong Feng was at the side on a rocking chair looking at the picture books on the table. He looked up at Hu Lei as he listened as she continued to teach Hikari a lot of nonsense. He was surprised that the child calmed down.

Hu Lei noticed the gaze and looked at Zhong Feng.

”What do you think about us having a daughter, Ah-Feng?” She asked with a coy laugh.

”No.” Zhong Feng answered without a second thought.

”Why not? Think about a daughter who is just as cute as me?” Hu Lei said.

Zhong Feng was moved for a moment, but he still shook his head.

”Daughters are too clingy. I like having you all to myself.” He said righteously.

Hu Lei could not help laughing at her petty husband, but her heart was filled with warmth.. For now, Wang Lei was enough. But who knew what the future would hold?
