There is nothing more uncomfortable than being hated by your own daughter.
This is the situation now.
Because of face issues, he did not want to expose the fact that his wife was strict in front of his children, so he could only pretend to be dignified. Therefore, after his daughter left a disgusting word about him, he stood there blankly, looking at the mother and daughter.
People leave the kitchen together...
He held the rolling pin in his hand.
Standing there helplessly.
Disliked by my daughter...
By my precious daughter...
quilt……
What his daughter just said kept repeating in his mind. An Quancheng seemed to have lost his soul, lowering his head and silently staring at the floor tiles under his feet.
Life seems to have lost the meaning of continuing at this moment...
However, his father's actions were all seen by An Qianxun who was standing aside.
He who is still young obviously does not understand his father's mood at this moment.
Just standing at the door, sucking his thumb.
Because his mother wouldn't let him eat sweets, he could only use this method to satisfy his craving.
A pair of big eyes stared at the rolling pin in his father's hand.
After a while, he asked curiously.
"Dad...do you want to make dumplings today?"
"..."
His son's words brought An Quancheng back to his senses.
The originally slightly bowed head was raised at this moment, looking at his son at the door.
I looked at the rolling pin in my hand again...
My temper is rising.
"Eat it and you will know it all day long..."
"My sister likes the dumplings made by dad the most!"
"..."
An Quancheng, who was just about to vent, was stunned when he heard his son's words.
After hesitating for a moment, he walked forward.
He came to his son and squatted down with a rolling pin.
"You mean...your sister likes my handbags, but doesn't like your mother's handbags?"
"Well, my sister said that daddy's buns have thick skin and she likes to eat the skin!"
"is that so?"
"Uh-huh!"
After hearing his son's words, An Quancheng was stunned for a long time.
Slowly, a smile appeared on his face and gradually turned into ecstasy.
He knows how to restore the relationship with his daughter!
Thinking of this, An Quancheng stood up excitedly, waved the rolling pin in his hand, and strode towards the chopping board.
An Qianxun saw his father making dumplings with ecstasy, and after observing for a while, he suddenly turned around and left, trotting all the way.
Come to mother's side.
As soon as he entered the house, he came to his mother, stretched out his little hand, and spoke loudly.
"Dad is making dumplings!"
"okay."
Seeing her son asking for credit, Su Yan soon knew that her son had completed the task she assigned.
He didn't break his promise, so he took out the candy from his pocket and handed it over.
He reached out and took it, and then jumped out of the house.
Only An Yuanyao was left looking at all this with a blank expression.
She couldn't understand why her mother, who had been very sad just now, immediately changed her face to a smile after hearing her brother say that her father was making dumplings.
Su Yan obviously saw the confusion on her daughter's face.
He spoke.
"Ever since what happened to you the day before yesterday, your dad has been looking sad all day long. I'm afraid he will get sick sooner or later if he continues like this."
"The day before yesterday..."
"So... later when you are eating, you praise your dad for the delicious dumplings he made. He will be happy when you praise him."
"..."
Looking at her mother who said this, An Yuanyao fell silent.
She still remembers what happened the day before yesterday.
And...that boy.
————————————
An Yuanyao completed her mother's task very well.
After hearing his daughter's praise, although An Quancheng didn't show it on the surface, he was actually happy inside.
While the family was eating dumplings, a person appeared outside the house.
"Quan Cheng, please come out."
"..."
Li Zhengmao stood outside the house.
Su Yan and An Yuanyao were obviously a little surprised by his sudden placement.
Soon, An Yuanyao put down the chopsticks in her hand, stood up and said hello to the other party.
"Uncle, good evening."
"Well, you eat first."
After answering, Li Zhengmao turned around and left. When An Quancheng saw it at the dining table, he didn't say much and stood up to follow him.
The two of them walked through the small courtyard and came outside.
The steps stopped.
Night has fallen, and since there are no street lights, we can only rely on the surrounding light.
He turned around and looked at An Quancheng beside him.
Li Zhengmao said.
"Those people were caught."
"Caught?"
"Um."
Nodding, Li Zhengmao continued.
"They are all local hooligans who often wander around the area. I don't know where they went two days ago. I just caught them today and wasted a lot of time..."
Speaking of this, Li Zhengmao's tone suddenly paused for a moment.
After a while, he continued.
"Whatever you want to do, I'll check your background..."
"Zhengmao."
Before he could even start talking, he was interrupted by An Quancheng.
The two grew up in the same place, and An Quancheng certainly knew the character of his good friend.
Although he was very angry when his daughter was in danger, An Quan Cheng could never be as ruthless as him.
Although he was unwilling to do so, he still said it.
"Send it to the station and leave it to the police."
"It won't take long to release it...forget it, it's up to you."
Li Zhengmao seemed to want to say something more, but after seeing the expression on An Quancheng's face through the dim light, he suddenly closed his mouth.
He also knows the other person's character very well.
In Li Zhengmao's view, An Quancheng has always been a bit mother-in-law and not decisive enough in his work.
If his daughter suffered such humiliation, if it were him...
"Why……"
After sighing, An Quancheng felt really relieved after hearing that the person was caught.
Looking up at the night sky.
"Did you have meal?"
"I haven't eaten yet."
"I made dumplings at home, do you want to eat them?"
"Did you cover it? Then forget it."
"..."
After a few simple words, the two of them fell into silence one after another.
Standing side by side...
"Quan Cheng..."
"Um."
"Come out for a drink with me."
Li Zhengmao's voice was a little low, and it seemed that he was in a bad mood as well.
When An Quancheng looked at him, he was surprised to find that his face showed fatigue.
He... seems very tired.
"..."
After a moment of silence, An Quancheng hesitated for a while and finally asked.
"She...is still like that?"
"Well, it can be regarded as revenge on me."
These words came from his mouth.
Only when facing An Quancheng could he speak his true feelings.
Taking a deep breath, Li Zhengmao lost his former majesty. At this moment, he looked like a man crushed by life.
Family conflicts caused him much suffering.
Although such words should not be said, An Quancheng also did not want to see him continue to torture himself like this.
"How about... you get a divorce."
"no."
Still the same answer.
"I did so many wrong things when I was young, but now I want to make up for her."
"That's not entirely your problem, she..."
"do not talk."
After interrupting An Quancheng's words, Li Zhengmao showed a wry smile on his face.
He turned to look at the man next to him.
The man who grew up with me...
"Drink some with me."
"..."
Looking at Li Zhengmao in front of him, An Quancheng couldn't say anything.
A long time passed.
An Quancheng suddenly turned around and walked towards the back room.
Only this sentence is left.
"I'll tell my wife to save her from being angry."
His eyes followed An Quancheng's back, watching him go back...
