Chapter 46 - 46. Do You Want To Be My Daughter? II

Third person POV

Hong er: " Father, Bobo, Shushu, come and try the chicken herbal soup that I cooked."

Xu Yongzheng: " Wahh~ It smells delicious, the smell even reached into the room yknow. The three of us had been wanting to eat the soup."

Xu Yongzheng ran to the table and took a bowl of soup that Hong er served. He drank it in one gulp leaving the chicken leg on the bowl, he grabbed the chicken leg with his hand and gnawed it. He chewed it for a few times and swallowed the meat, he threw the bones back to the bowl. Hong er gave him a bowl of water and a towel to wash his hand.

Xu Yongzheng washed his hands in the bowl of water and wiped his hand with the towel Hong er gave. He didn't realize that it was Hong er that gave him the towel and water, usually the servants do it for him. Hong er looked up to him and smiled.

Hong er: " Shushu, what do you think about the soup?"

Xu Yongzheng: " It is amazing! More delicious than those restaurant foods. Eh? Are you the one who gave me the towel?"

Xu Yongzheng looked at the towel in Hong er's hand, he was touched by Hong er's filial. Hong er nodded her head and tilted her head in confusion. He turned around and glared at Xu Tingfeng. Xu Tingfeng proudly rubbed his nose and smirked at Xu Yongzheng. Xu Yongzheng whipped his head towards Hong er and held her hand.

Xu Yongzheng: " Do you want to be my daughter?"

Xu Tingfeng: " Hey! That's playing foul!"

Xu Yongzheng: " No! I am playing veryyyyy fair!"

Xu Yingjie: " Shut up. Hong er wants to talk."

Xu Yingjie picked up Hong er and carried Hong er in his arm. He leaned his face towards Hong er, he was waiting Hong er to kiss him. Hong er smiled and leaned forward to kiss his cheek. Xu Yingjie smirked at Xu Tingfeng and Xu Yongzheng.

Xu Tingfeng & Xu Yongzheng: " Big bro! That is not fair!"

Xu Tingfeng: " She is my daughter!"

Xu Yingjie: " She is the one who kissed me."

Xu Yongzheng: " I saw big bro leaned your face to her."

Xu Yingjie: " I never forced her to kiss me. Hong er, do you want to be my daughter?"

Xu Tingfeng & Xu Yongzheng: " Big bro!"

Xu Yingjie ignored them and seriously looked at Hong er. Hong er was embarrassed by their argument, she chuckled and shyly smiled at the three of them. Her chuckle made Xu Tingfeng and Xu Yongzhen looked over.

Hong er: " Bobo, Shushu, I'm sorry that I can't be your daughter. I will always be father's daughter. But it doesn't mean I don't love Bobo and Shushu. I love Bobo and Shushu as much as I love my own father. I love auntie and Lin laoshi as my own mother too. Everyone is my family and I love everyone."

Everyone's hearts were pierced by a cupid's arrow, Lan Mingzhu and Xu Yongzheng turned around and wiped their imaginary tears. They hoped their children would be as cute as Hong er.

Xu Yongliang: " Father, can we follow Qiang ge and Hao ge to Xi An?"

Xu Yongzheng: " Ohh Hell No!"

Xu Yongrui: " Why?!"

Lin Yingyue: " You two won't practice seriously, you only want to be with Hong er, so no. Even if your father allows you to go, I won't."

Xu Yongliang: " But-"

Xu Yongzheng: " No buts! Only after you mastered what I taught you then you can go train there. And you two are still brats."

Xu Yongliang and Xu Yongrui were like dejected puppies, they were looking down and tears started to well up on their eyes. Hong er felt pitiful for them, she tugged Xu Yingjie's collar and she whispered something on his ear. Xu Yingjie lightly nodded his head and put her down.

Hong er held Xu Yongliang and Xu Yongrui's hands and smiled at them, she turned her body around while holding their hands. She looked at Lin Yingyue with pleading puppy eyes, Lin Yingyue's body flinched.

Lin Yingyue: ' No, not those puppy eyes. I am weak to that.'

Hong er: " Lin laoshi, can you bring them when you come to Xi An?"

Lin Yingyue: " T-they won't be safe if they kept traveling back and forth."

Hong er: " Just once a month, pretty please~"

Lin Yingyue: " …Fine"

Hong er: " Yay! I love you so much Lin laoshi, you are the best."

Lan Mingzhu glared at Lin Yingyue with jealousy, she pouted and humphed. Hong er turned her body back to Xu Yongliang and Xu Yongrui, she hugged both of them and patted their head.

Hong er: " Quickly master all of the lessons so we can practice together. And every month, I will check on your improvement. Don't disappoint me, okay."

Xu Yongliang & Xu Yongrui: " Yes Jiejie!" ( Jiejie = elder sister)

Hong er: " Uhm! I will be waiting for you two."

Xu Zhaoyu: " Abuu!"

Xu Zhaoyu suddenly let out a wail, he cutely frowned at Lin Yingyue and puffed out his cheeks. Lin Yingyue chuckled and tapped his little nose.

Lin Yingyue: " Alright, I will bring you too."

Xu Zhaoyu giggled and Lin Yingyue snuggled his nose. Hong er went to Xu Zhaoyu's side and kissed his chubby cheek.

Hong er: " I will be waiting for you too, Rui er."
