Chapter 761: He Had The Final Say
The next morning
Xia Xiaofu got up late. She jumped out of bed quickly and rushed into the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth. That morning, she had to send Little Xuyan to report to preschool. How could she be late?
It was all Ou Luoxi’s fault.
After was.h.i.+ng up, she opened the wardrobe, which was full of trendy female winter clothing. She chose a maple colored coat and put it on.
Just then, the room door opened and Ou Luo Xi walked in.
He wore a white s.h.i.+rt inside, a round-neck dark blue sweater on the outside, and a pair of black slim pants underneath. The simple matching made him easily uphold the male model style in fas.h.i.+on magazines. The bangs in front of his forehead were pushed upwards, revealing a pair of bright black eyes, making him look so clean and handsome that one’s hackles would rise.
Xia Xiaofu glanced at him and felt a rush of anger from within, but his haughty look was torturous, and now he had even made her late.
It would leave such a bad impression by being late for the first day of registration at the kindergarten.
“What’s the matter? Glaring at me early in the morning.” Seeing her puff up her cheeks, Ou Luoxi gave a low laugh. He strode forward and reached out to pull her into his embrace. “I didn’t serve you well enough last night, eh?”
When he mentioned last night, Xia Xiaofu’s face was immediately dyed light pink. “Let go. You are making me late. This morning is Little Xuyan’s first day reporting preschool,”
she said in a coquettish way.
Ou Luoxi looked at the watch on his wrist. “Isn’t the reporting time at eight o’clock? Let’s go down to have breakfast, and I’ll drive you there. You will definitely make it in time.”
“Well I guess that’s the only way…” Xia Xiaofu murmured and then quickly stopped and turned to look at Ou Luoxi. “You… How do I know that the reporting time was at eight? And…you’ve never asked me which school Little Xuyan goes to?”
Ou Luoxi let her go, keeping silent.
Xia Xiaofu understood everything at once. All of her blood rushed to her brain, and her voice raised several octaves. She looked at the man in front of her unbelievably, “Ou Luoxi, did you know all about it? No wonder the school only accepted students living in a certain district. It was all part of your plan, wasn’t it? You guided me here step by step and took the opportunity to…get me. You really had it all planned out!”
Ou Luoxi reached out his hand and pinched her soft little face. With a soft smile, he said, “If I hadn’t done this, would you be obediently eating. Would you even be staying with me?”
“You!”
He pulled her into his arms and coaxed her. “Come on, don’t be angry. It’s all because I love you so much. I love Little Xuyan so much, and I want to be with you two. Besides, how could I not know where Little Xuyan is studying? Isn’t this good? We will take Little Xuyan to and from school together. I think Little Xuyan will be very happy.”
Xia Xiaofu was speechless. When did this man become so eloquent?
Besides, it was now useless for her to be angry. Little Xuyan really needed fatherly love and a complete family.
Xia Xiaofu was a little relieved at this thought, but she was still not appeased, so she swung her little pink fist and hammered him hard.
Ou Luoxi let her hit him but continued holding her tightly.
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Little Xuyan’s voice sounded, “Daddy, did you wake Mommy up? I’m going to be late for school.”
The two quickly let go of each other, and Ou Luoxi carried Little Xuyan into his arms. “Daddy has woken Mommy up. Let’s go downstairs first. Mommy will come down soon. After breakfast, Daddy and Mommy will bring Little Xuyan to school together.”
Ou Luoxi left with Little Xuyan in his arms.
Xia Xiaofu looked at their back views as they left. Has Little Xuyan already started calling him Daddy?
Looking at their friendly expressions, maybe Little Xuyan liked Ou Luoxi even more now.
Xia Xiaofu’s heart was sour yet full. Little Xuyan finally placed the knot in her heart aside and recognized him as her father. She was really happy for them.
Xia Xiaofu took a scarf and then went to the bedside table to get her mobile phone. She conveniently opened it and took a look.
Her cell phone had a browsing record which showed that her cell phone had been touched last night.
She wondered. Did Ou Luoxi touch her cell phone?
What did he do?
Xia Xiaofu went to her text messages, which were empty. She continued scrolling and saw that there were two deleted SMS in the draft box.
She opened them to take a look.
Chen Jingyu’s messages from last night and those which Ou Luoxi had sent under her name lay there quietly.
Xia Xiaofu carefully looked them over twice and felt surprised, yet humoured. What was Ou Luoxi trying to do?
The corner of her lips slowly turned up and she placed her cell phone back in her bag. Since he had already returned the text message, then… Well, he had the final say.
Chen Jingyu had helped her a lot, but with the situation now, cutting contact would be the best outcome for them three. As Ou Luoxi said, she wished both him and herself happiness.
I just don’t know what kind of mood Ou Luoxi was in when he sent that message last night. The jealous expression on his face must have been exciting to see, Xia Xiaofu thought secretly.
…
Little Xuyan was sent to preschool. Ou Luoxi and Xia Xiaofu stood by the door and watched as she was led into the cla.s.sroom by the teacher. Watching their daughter go to school on the first day, they felt both worry and pride, something that only parents could understand.
When they walked out of the school and got back to the car, Ou Luoxi asked, “Do I take you to school?”
Xia Xiaofu nodded. “Yes.” She then thought of something and smiled at Ou Luoxi widely. “Ou Luoxi, please get me a car. I want to drive by myself so that it’s convenient to go anywhere. I haven’t driven very much in these two years with Little Xuyan. I’m almost getting rusty.”
Ou Luoxi started the car and glanced at her sideways. “No way.”
“Why not?” A car… Xia Xiaofu did not expect him to say no to her. With his current status, a car to him now was just a small case.
“You said by yourself that you are rusty. What if you got into an accident?”
“But I can’t not drive forever.” Xia Xiaofu was very unhappy and furrowed her eyebrows.
Ou Luoxi reached out his hand and patted her head. “Be good. This topic on driving has no room for discussion. I will be your full-time driver whenever you need one, eh?”
Xia Xiaofu took a sideway glance at his delicate handsome face, then murmured through her pursed red lips, “Hmph,” but the corner of her mouth rose quietly, and her heart was filled with sweetness.
She liked the way he was being dominant now.
The car stopped at the school gate, and Ou Luoxi got out from the driver’s seat. He went around the car and opened the pa.s.senger’s door for Xia Xiaofu to get out.
“I’m busy this afternoon. I’ll send a driver to pick you up. You can go to my office, and we’ll have lunch together.”
“Ok,” Xia Xiaofu answered. She saw that there were already students and teachers coming, so she waved quickly. “I’ll get going first.”
“Wait a minute.” He clasped her slender white wrists, then leaned over to plant a kiss on her face.
