Chapter 446 Trust
"It's over?" Dongfang's little lady was so tired of talking, like squeezing toothpaste. When I asked, she only answered, "That's all? She didn't say when your mother would come to pick you up?" Zhen Nuo's reaction was too strange. Since she knew Dongfang was at my house, why didn't she come to settle the score with me?
It just so happened that Dongfang Xiaoniang's Yagami was burned to death by Chu Yuan's Kusato Kyo. She threw the handle down angrily, turned her head and stared at me with resentment, as if she was killed by me. "Please pick me up? I'm not misunderstood yet, I think she cared about me too much? I didn't force me to go home immediately to admit my mistakes and review it with her, which is already a very kindness."
I feel more and more that it is a self-righteous and overestimating my ability to plead for Dongfang. The gap between them and their daughter is far more severe than I imagined. No wonder Dongfang couldn't believe me and insisted on making such a pitiful and naive request...
I smiled self-deprecatingly, "Don't worry, let's let you live here. She trusts us brother and sister quite well. Should I feel honored?"
"You can also think she is underestimating you," Dongfang teased me with shamelessness: "I am a young beauty with the beauty of the country. What about you, a big man in estrus. She actually lets me live under the same roof with you. Isn't this clearly a shame to look at you?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuan's pretty face, which was deliberately stern, finally couldn't hold back. She burst out laughing, but I didn't agree with it, "Maybe your mother has confidence in you."
Dongfang was stunned, "What confidence does she have in me?"
"A little girl with a stinky breast and blind and confident little girl, even a big man in estrus like me will not be interested..."
"You--" Dongfang was like an angry kitten, glaring his eyes wide open. Unfortunately, her character was rude, and her mouth was ultimately inferior to me. Her face was choked by me and her face turned red.
Chu Yuan couldn't stand it anymore, "Brother, you're too much! Isn't Dongfang beautiful?! How could you say that to her?!"
What did I say? I was still not dry and I was blindly confident. I didn’t deny that she was pretty, but I just didn’t admit that she was attractive to me. I gave Chu Yuan a blank look, “If I say that I, a big man in the estrus, are interested in her, what would you think of me?”
Chu Yuan didn't even think about it and opened his mouth and said, "Beast!"
I'm all in my head...
Chu Yuan also thought about it, but she would never admit her mistake and added in a distorted way: "But you don't dare to be interested in a girl like her, it can only prove that you are worse than beasts!"
This theory...
"Anyway, in your eyes, I am either a beast or a beast, so I don't care. Whatever you say," I coughed, and suffused, and said, "Now, if you are serious, Dongfang, since your mother doesn't urge you to go home for the time being, is she willing to talk to me?"
If we put aside Dongfang's subjective understanding and look at Dongfang's mother's attitude objectively, this is actually a good signal. Since she allows Dongfang to stay in my house for the time being, in a sense, it is the embodiment of her beginning to respect Dongfang's will.
"I don't know, Zhen Nuo should have passed the message to her. Maybe she will come to you tomorrow, have a fight with you, or just beat you up. Maybe she just ignores it, see where I can vent my anger with her, and what day you are willing to take me in... Don't think I'm joking. She is a person of this kind of personality. Everything needs her mood. I can't control her mood. Her mood has always been her mood."
I didn't think Dongfang was joking, because when she said this, there was a bitterness in her eyes that was inconsistent with her age. That bitterness was something that people who had never experienced it could not express.
Seeing my silence, Dongfang sighed and said, "I'm joking, how could I really be shameless and stay here for the rest of my life? I think she doesn't let her do it. She doesn't like to owe favors to others the most. Maybe it's because she's busy with work and can't separate herself. Don't worry, even if you don't want to see her, she will still appear in front of you. I've known this result for a long time and have been mentally prepared... It's getting late, I'm going to bed."
The topic of "Mom" made Dongfang feel extremely depressed. It can be seen that she was pessimistic about whether her mother could change her original intention and no longer force her to study abroad.
"Brother Nan..." Dongfang, who walked to the door, suddenly turned around, "You promised me, you probably won't go back on your word, right?"
Her sharp eyes made me feel uncomfortable, "No, of course not..."
"That's good," Dongfang pressed his index finger on the thin two red lips, and smiled cunningly and proudly: "If you regret it, don't blame me for telling Yuanyuan all the bad things you did~"
I was holding a cup of water to hide my guilt. After hearing what Dongfang said, I almost poured water into my nose. In Chu Yuan's opinion, pressing her lips with her index finger represents "mystery" or "privacy", but I heard that she was talking about the unexpected kiss when she was having a rock-scissor that night in heaven and earth!
Threat? Joke? This is not important. What is important is what Dongfang's mother thinks? Is she insisting on studying abroad from the East for the future and future of the East, or simply imposing her will on the East? If it is the former, I wouldn't mind being a villain who goes back on the side, but if it is the latter...
"I keep my word." I said calmly, but I was very firm, firmly being a villain who went back on my word, or firmly competing for my daughter with others...
Dongfang was stunned for a moment, Xuan'er calmed down her mind and nodded heavily, "I believe in you."
Although I really want to get into the cracks in the floor, I have to continue to pretend to be calm and emphasize my honesty and trustworthiness.
"Brother, aren't you fooling Dongfang?" Seeing Dongfang close the door, Chu Yuan threw down the battlefield halfway, snatched the water cup in my hand, and asked me with a cold face, "Look at that point, if I nodded, I would immediately turn into a chicken that fell into soup."
"Don't you believe it?"
"I want to believe it," Chu Yuan glanced carefully at the door and said to me in a voice: "But Dongfang's request is so naive and unrealistic. All fools know that it is impossible to do it at all. Are you a fool?"
I couldn't help but smile and said, "Since you know I can't do it, why do you have to force me to agree to her request?"
Chu Yuan turned around and placed the water cup on the coffee table, then sat down next to me, turned his face to look at me, and said, "Dongfang is not a fool. He even made such naive requests. It shows how discouraged and helpless she is. I know her too much. She knows more about her than anyone else. You are just perfunctory and comforting her. She believes in you, but just making the final resistance. It's like a person who can't swim fell into the water. Even if he knows that he is dead, he doesn't want to give up. He will struggle desperately, hoping that a miracle will happen and someone will come to save her..."
Actually, I also felt that Dongfang didn't trust me anymore, otherwise she had just made the joke that threatened me. Seeing Chu Yuan's sympathetic eyes rosy, I unconsciously stretched out my hand to caress her head as usual. Before I touched her, she suddenly twisted her body, grabbed my wrist with both hands, begging me pitifully: "Brother, I beg you, even if you can't convince Aunt Ran, it doesn't matter. At least, you have to struggle like Dongfang and let her see that you really did your best for her. Don't let her feel that this world is really so ruthless, okay?"
After all, my daughter is someone else's daughter. Whether it is Chu Yuan or Dong Xiaoye, the day she escaped from Dongfang to my house, she knew clearly that no one of us could help her, including Dongfang, and myself... That's why Dong Xiaoye stood on Chu Yuan's side, forcing me to take in Dongfang for so long, she was just trying to make Dongfang and Chu Yuan get along for a few more days.
"Well, I will." I tried to retract my hand, but Chu Yuan grabbed it very tightly.
"Really?" Chu Yuan twitched his little nose, his nasal voice was very loud, and he finally didn't cry. "Okay, then I believe you too. If you cheat me, I will complain to my dad every day, saying that you bullied me, you know my methods."
