“Of course not, Mommy. You’re not a lady.” Little Bean reacted extremely fast.
“Um, what am I then?” Huo Mian asked, wondering what her daughter meant.
“Haha, is your mom a guy? You did everything right, but you got this one thing wrong, Little Bean,” Qin Ning laughed.
“Of course she’s not a guy! Mommy’s madam… She’s not a lady, because she’s already married. Auntie, you’re still single, so you’re a lady,” Little Bean explained.
“Madam… um, fine, your definition of me is extremely accurate I guess.” Huo Mian was speechless; how smart was her child to know the word ‘madam’ at such a young age?
“You’re finally back from your date.” Qin Chu looked up at Huo Mian with a smile.
“Yup…”
“How was it?”
“Amazing, we came to an agreement. Didn’t you see the news? Ni Yang went public with his relations.h.i.+p.”
“Good for him, Uncle Ni Yang’s great to his girlfriend… He’s a good man,” Pudding suddenly commented as she played a piece of checkers.
“Uncle Zhixin needs more courage like Uncle Ni Yang. He wants to date Auntie Bella but is too shy to ask her out… Gosh,” Little Bean complained.
“You’re too young to meddle in your uncle’s business, go to bed. Look at the clock, it’s late.” Huo Mian looked down at her phone and realized it was already past 10 PM.
“Daddy, you lost again,” Pudding said calmly.
“Alright, what do you want this time?” Qin Chu said, obviously prepared.
“I want a million from Daddy…”
“Um…”
“U.S. Dollars.” As soon as Pudding finished her sentence, everyone in the living room was dumbfounded.
“Sis, are you crazy? Didn’t I tell you to ask little by little? You’re going to scare Daddy,” Little Bean reminded anxiously.
“Pudding, are you robbing your daddy poor over a game of checkers?” Qin Ning asked, feeling speechless.
“So, Pudding, can you tell me what you want with all that money?” Huo Mian walked up to Pudding and sat down beside her three-year-old daughter. She was genuinely shocked by Pudding’s request.
“Do I have to?” Pudding asked mysteriously.
Huo Mian: “…”
Qin Ning: “…”
“Of course you don’t, Sweetie. I lost to you so I’m going to keep my promise.” Then, Qin Chu took out his phone. “Is online transfer alright?”
“Honey, are you really going to give her that much money?” Huo Mian pursed her lips.
“Of course, we can’t lie to our children… I’m a man of my words.” Pudding’s giant request paired with Qin Chu’s stubbornness left Huo Mian flabbergasted.
“Big Brother, you’re such a great dad, I’m going to be your daughter in the next life, okay? Super rich dude?” Qin Ning said.
“I don’t want you as my daughter, you’re a troublemaker,” Qin Chu replied.
Qin Ning: “…”
Then, Pudding’s phone gave a little ‘ding’.
“I transferred the money, Pudding, take a look.”
“I don’t need to, I trust you, Daddy. Okay, I’m going to bed now, goodnight…” Pudding proudly got up from the couch and gave a little yawn.
Little Bean immediately got up as well. “Sis, do you want a ma.s.sage? You look tired from sitting down all night…”
“Sure, wanna ma.s.sage my shoulder?” Pudding pointed to her left shoulder, and then she headed up the stairs.
“Sis, how do you feel? You just won a million U.S. dollars,” Little Bean asked as she rushed up the stairs.
“Not bad, I should’ve asked for more.”
Upon hearing what Pudding said, Huo Mian and Qin Ning almost fell speechless to the ground. Qin Chu, however, was extremely calm, and even a little proud of his daughter. “Pudding’s like me when I was young…”
The twin’s brief exchange left everyone in laughter…
Just when Huo Mian thought that Ni Yang’s scandal had pa.s.sed, another wave of problems rolled in later that evening.
“Huo Mian, are you asleep?” Su Yu sent Huo Mian a voice message at 11:30 PM.
