Chapter 347: The Confession at the Birthday Party 10
The children have secretly admired the beautifully printed invitations several times. This is the first time they have been invited in a serious manner, as if they were inviting adults. Even if it was Zhou Tianci's birthday, invitations had never been sent out like this.
They are not as suspicious as Xiaobai, and they all firmly believe that Xiaobai's father will treat everyone to a big dinner tonight.
"Xiaobai, did your father customize the invitations for you? Will they be expensive?"
"Xiaobai, what does your father do?"
"Xiaobai, are you invited to your home tonight?"
"But, Xiaobai, I remember that I didn't see your father when I went to your house last time. Besides, your house is so small, can it accommodate so many of us?"
"..."
The children were talking all over the place, and Qiao Xiaobai felt uneasy, and her little heart began to get nervous again.
Dad must never fail to show up.
Fortunately, I saw my father standing at the school gate from a distance. The child's little mind immediately relaxed and he flew over like a little butterfly: "Dad...Dad..."
Xiang Xi picked her up and said, "Xiaobai, have all the classmates been invited?"
"Everyone is invited."
Yi Xiangxi saw twenty or thirty children behind him, but only Zhou Tianci was missing.
"Come, children, come here..."
Two nannies came with them, specially taking care of the children and counting their numbers.
Xiao Bai immediately looked around, but did not see Sister Mai. There was a look of disappointment in his eyes, and his voice lowered: "Dad... Sister Mai doesn't agree?"
"Sister Mai agreed, don't worry. I'll give Sister Mai a call... just listen..."
The call was connected, and he gave the phone to the child. On the phone, Qiao Xiaomai's voice was very calm: "Xiaobai, be obedient and let Uncle Yi celebrate your birthday tonight. You can play well with your classmates.
You must listen to Uncle Yi..."
"Sister Mai...Sister Mai...won't you come with me? Sister Mai, come quickly. I'll ask dad to pick you up, okay?"
The child's voice was urgent and full of strong expectations. It was really difficult for Qiao Xiaomai to have the courage to refuse. However, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to say: "Xiaobai, be obedient, tonight I want to
I'm working overtime and have urgent business, so I can't come to accompany you..."
"Sister Mai..."
There was obvious disappointment in the child's voice, mixed with deep uneasiness.
She knew that Sister Mai wouldn't work overtime today, so hadn't she agreed in advance to take time off to play with her? In the past few years, no matter how busy she was at work, whenever Xiao Bai celebrated her birthday, she would always take half a day off to spend it with her. This was still her
The first time I lied to Xiaobai about working overtime was on her birthday.
Adults cannot lie all the time in front of their children and speak recklessly, but they require their children to be honest and upright good people. In recent years, Qiao Xiaomai has rarely lied to his children, so this time he was particularly embarrassed when he said it.
"Xiao Bai, be obedient..." She couldn't help but soften her voice, "Xiao Bai, have a good time, I'll pick you up at half past nine..."
Xiaobai felt a little happier when he heard that she would pick him up.
"Sister Mai, can you come earlier?"
"That……"
"Come at nine o'clock, okay?"
"..."
She couldn't bear to reject her child anymore, "Xiaobai, be obedient and I will pick you up as soon as possible."
Yi Xiangxi was listening to their mother and daughter talking, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart, but he couldn't bear to let his daughter down, so he answered the phone and deliberately smiled happily to coax her: "Sister Mai works overtime, let's keep all the good things, wait."
How about cutting the cake when she comes to pick you up?"
