Chapter 1833: Came To The Door
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, foreigners in the city like them were not required to visit their friends and relatives. Hence, they basically stayed at home to watch television while their parents tidied up their rooms.
Le Tian was playing with some blocks in the living room with Ding Yuejia when Ding Yuejia suddenly climbed onto Le Tian and whispered, “Mommy, I miss Daddy. Let’s go find Daddy.”
Ding Yuejia’s words were spoken into Le Tian’s ears, so no one else would hear them.
Le Tian looked up at his parents who were watching television. “Don’t you like Grandpa and Grandma? Isn’t it good to stay at home with them?”
“I can still accompany them when I come back at night, but Daddy is spending Lunar New Year alone. So pitiful,” Ding Yuejia said as his little hands shook Le Tian. He said pitifully, “After Auntie comes back, Grandpa and Grandma just want to accompany Auntie. Second Uncle has his own things to do too. Daddy is so sad.”
Le Tian did not feel that Ding Junqi was wronged.
The movie that Ding Junqi shot last year was airing on the television. It was a historical fantasy drama that had been released during the Lunar New Year. In it, he was dressed in a traditional costume, giving people the impression that he was a gentleman.
“Say, this young man is really good-looking. He’s a natural in whatever character he acts as.” Le Tian’s mother was also a fan of Ding Junqi, and she watched quite a few of his shows.
Le Tian secretly rolled her eyes.
Ding Yuejia covered his mouth and giggled. His grandmother thought rather greatly of his father.
“That’s enough. You’re already so old, yet you’re still infatuated with the young man,” Le Tian’s father said unhappily.
Le Tian’s mother was about to retort when there was a knock on the door. Le Tian hurriedly put down Ding Yuejia and got up to open the door.
It was the new year, who would come to their house?
As her mind wandered, Le Tian approached the door. The moment she opened the door and saw the person outside, she slammed it shut again.
Mother—
Was he trying to scare her to death?
Why was this man here?
Just as Le Tian was about to say something to appease his parents, Ding Yuejia had already run over on his stubby legs. “Is my father here to pick me up?”
Le Tian, “…”
Ugh, was her son trying to anger her to death?
“Le Tian, who’s that? Is it Yuejia’s father?” Le Tian’s mother stood up and pushed Le Tian away. “What’s wrong with you, child? Why are you so rude to his father? His father is here to pick up his child. Why did you slam the door?”
As Le Tian’s mother spoke, she opened the door.
Le Tian’s mother, “…”
The man looking suave in a suit stood at the door with a gift box in his hand.
Le Tian’s mother subconsciously turned her head to look at the television. The television was still playing the image of him floating down from Mount Kunlun.
“Daddy—” Ding Yuejia went over and hugged Ding Junqi’s leg, his big eyes sparkling.
Le Tian slumped against the wall, hoping that she would die there and then.
Ding Junqi hugged his son and nodded slightly at Le Tian’s mother. “h.e.l.lo, Auntie. I’m sorry to ask Teacher Le Tian to help me take care of my son during Lunar New Year, mainly because I’m too busy.”
Fake!
Le Tian leaned against the wall and watched the man act.
For some reason, she felt like she had gotten scammed by this father-son pair.
“Come in quickly. Come in quickly. It’s pretty cold outside.” Le Tian’s mother quickly opened the door to let Ding Junqi in.
“Mom—” Letian screamed. Was her mother not a person who was most wary when safety was involved? Why would she let a stranger into her home?
Ding Junqi looked at Le Tian with an expression that somewhat resembled a smile. See, he entered the house after all, did he not?
