Towards Spectral Fire, Bai Song know a bit about him, adding to the fact that he quarrel with Bai Cheng, even if it is for himself, Bai Song still admires him.
"Luck only, let Fire guild leader make fun of me." Bai Song accepts the friend request.
Spectral Fire smiles, without saying anything leaves as well, in his heart thinking: "Even Heavy Sword is willing to add him as friend, looks like this fellow is not so simple, Bai Cheng that second-generation rich kid much have been deflated by this fellow."
As for the surrounding player, seeing that the main character have left, slowly disperse, going off to do their own things.
As for Bai Song, he immediately chooses to logoff.
After exiting the gaming cabin, Bai Song uses his phone to check his account, as expected, there is an additional 21 thousand dollars. But after receiving this money, Bai Song have a headache.
Originally, he have planned to return the money to Liu Ying first, then purchase a gaming cabin for Liu Ying, later on allows Liu Ying to follow his memories, and making sure that Liu Ying is able to become one of the top players.
But his promise to Qiu Yu, makes him slightly unsure, after thinking for half a day, Bai Song decided to go upstairs to look at his daughter.
The afternoon have already past.
"Papa!" His daughter Duo Duo is in the landlord house watching cartoons, when she saw Bai Song, she immediately rush over.
"Thank you for taking care of Duo Duo." Bai Song looks at the landlady sister Zeng and thanks her.
When he sees Sister Zheng nods her head, Bai Song brings Duo Duo downstairs.
Right after Bai Song left, from the room comes Guo Ping gloomy voice: "Wife did the guy, Bai Song from downstairs came up?"
"Yes." Zeng Hong Faintly reply.
"Have you collected Bai Song house rent? If it keeps dragging it is not good. It have been so many months, if they still say that they don"t have money just drive them away." Guo Ping reclines on a rocking chair and decided with satisfaction at his plan.
"They have paid the rent. You can count them." Zeng Hong takes out a stack of money from her bag and place in front of Guo Ping.
"Eh? Isn"t his house so poor that they almost can"t buy food to eat? Just relying on his wife meagre earnings to eke out a living, how did they come up with so much money." Guo Ping takes the money with a bit of shock.
"You go and ask him then." Zeng Hong rolls her eyes and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
The rain slowly drizzles.
The damp street as well as grey clouds covering the sky causes the heart of a person to feel depress.
At this time, a light wind caress his face, even seemingly blowing away the grey clouds in the sky, allowing the warm sunlight to falls on the people face.
Bai Song carries his daughter from when he is withdrawing the money till they have board the public bus. The kindergarten starts in two days" time, hence Bai Song decided to pay the school fee in advance today.
Carrying his daughter down the public bus, Duo Duo eyes are drawn towards the cars park in front of the school and curiously ask Bai Song: "Papa, is these cars faster than the public bus?"
Bai Song heart trembles, smiling forcefully: "Yes, faster than the public bus."
Duo Duo blinks her cute and gullible eye: "Then how much is a trip?"
Bai Song was unable to speak for a moment. After a while, he pinches her cheeks: "In the future papa will buy a car then we will not need to spend money."
After paying the school fee, Bai Song is left with around 3k.
Bai Song have not eaten lunch, hence when he pa.s.s a food stall he asked his daughter: "Do you wish to eat something?"
Usually other family child walks past such kind of food stall, they will pull the adults to crying they want to eat. But Duo Duo very sensibly shakes her head, indicating that she is not hungry.
Bai Song sees Duo Duo wishing to save money for him not knowing that he have not eaten, after thinking about it, he decided to bear with it. Also he have earn a small sum of money, there is still innumerable expenses, not mentioning others, just Liu Ying loan needs to be return as soon as possible.
This time Bai Song brings Duo Duo to a shoe shop. Since his daughter is going to school soon, he wanted to buy two new shoes for her, as the shoes she is wearing have been worn for a long time.
"Boss, do you sell young children shoes? Like this child who is almost 5 years old."
"Your daughter wears what size?" the boss puts down his book.
"Almost 5 years old."
"What do you mean by almost 5 years old? 5 years old children feet sizes are all different, can be big or small." The boss shakes his head and says: "What kind of father are you, not knowing what shoes size your own daughter wear. Let"s let your daughter try out the shoes herself."
Bai Song down slights awkardly lets Duo Duo, lets Duo Duo try out the shoes. After thinking about it he regrets deeply, he have never bought a single thing for both his daughter and wife.
Finally, Duo Duo picks out a pale yellow shoe, which is too big when wearing.
Bai Song shakes his head and say: "Duo Duo, this pair of shoe is too big, you should change to a pair that fits your feet."
"No, mama says choose bigger ones, so that it can be worn for more years." Duo Duo stubbornly shakes her head.
(TL: I feel like crying now.)
Bai Song nose got slightly block. Picking up the pair of shoes that Duo Duo have chosen: "Boss change it to a smaller pair."
At this time Bai Song also sees that inside the shop, there is a few woollen stuff toys in plastic bag. Bai Song chose a woollen penguin that is slightly bigger than Duo Duo and ask: "Boss how much is one of these?"
Night-time.
The wind have stop making noise. Today"s evening is especially beautiful, the horizon have a few reddish clouds, warms the heart and delights the eye.
Bai Song takes the public bus with Duo Duo and returns home with an arm full of items.
Qiu Yu as usual, returns home with a tired appearance after work. When she open the door, she sees Bai Song with Duo Duo watching a comic book.
Her daughter is hugging a woollen penguin that is bigger than her. Qiu Yu blinks her eyes, Duo Duo is really carrying a large stuff toy, shock she ask: "Who send over this thing?"
Could it be using the daily expenses money kept in the house?
When Qiu Yu thought of it she starts to panic.
"Mama." Duo Duo looks at Qiu Yu and pounce into her mom"s bosom.
"You have return?" Bai Song smiles satisfied and say: "Today after I have brought Duo Duo to sign up for kindergarten, I bought it conveniently on the way back home."
"Bought conveniently…" At this time Qiu Yu cried out in shock: "What? You say today you brought Duo Duo to sign up for kindergarten?"
"That"s right mama, today papa brought me to the kindergarten. There is a lot of people." Duo Duo act coquettishly in Qiu Yu"s embrace cutely.
"Where did you get the money from?" Qiu Yu ask in shock.
"Didn"t I tell you? I earn it all from the game, today other than signing up for Duo Duo kindergarten, after buying a few more items I am left with 2 thousand dollars." Saying finish, Bai Song takes out a small stack of folded money from his pocket.
Qiu Yu is stun when she feels Bai Song pa.s.sing the money into her hands. Feeling the money in her hands, she realised that this is not a dream.
"Mama, papa bought all of this for me." Duo Duo points at a pile of items which consist of shoes, stuff toy, comic books……
Bai Song have really changed.
Qiu Yu eyes starts to mist. Bai Song softly brushes away her tears: "I have also bought you a present take a look and see if you like it."
Saying finish, Bai Song takes out a skirt. At first he wanted to buy a shirt, but when the attendant ask about her 3 size, he was stumped, hence he decided to buy a skirt that looks like it fit.
"A bit tight……" Qiu Yu compares the skirt to her waist and gives her opinion.
"Lets change it tomorrow then."
"Don"t want……"
"Eh?" Bai Song makes a sound in doubt.
"This is the first present you have given me after marrying me." Qiu Yu keeps the skirt away carefully.
Because of Bai Song slow changes that his healing this scattered and smashed family, during dinner, the family reveals a joyful mood.
As the night deepens, their daughter have fallen into deep sleep.
"Qiu Yu."
"Oh?" Qiu Yu does not understands why Bai Song changes the way he calls her.
"Nothing much."
Bai Song remembers the times he was living as a sc.u.mbag person, changing his perspective of thinking, if he was Qiu Yu, would he have given up on this family way earlier……
Futhermore she is still so young and beautiful, after leaving him, she could have started a new beginning a new life.
Thinking till here, Bai Song reaches out and hugs Qiu Yu in guilt, wishing to properly cherish. As it is pitch dark and Bai Song is unable to see clearly, he embraces her bosom.
"Tonight can"t as tomorrow I have to wake up very early to work. How about… tomoroow night?"
Bai Song is unable to say anything. Of cause he knows what his wife is implying.
As the night deepens more, seeing that both his wife and daughter have fallen asleep, Bai Song walks to the window and looks at the starry night.
The dark clouds gradually disperse, allowing the bright moon to shine brightly.
