Good Dad System [Arc 3] Chapter 32.4: If You Have A Stepfather, You Will Have A Stepmother (4)
This is a well-decorated suite. It looks like more than 300 square meters. The decoration is exquisite. There is a beautiful plain vase on the table next to the sofa. There are two or three flowers with dew on it, which shows the hostess’s interest in life. Leaning in front of the vase is a family portrait. In the photo, a family of four sits on a red velvet bench. The one who looks like the father wears glasses and sits in the middle in a gentle and elegant manner. On his right hand, he holds the woman. The woman is well-maintained, with beautiful eyebrows and tied hair. She looks at the camera tenderly. Sitting on the other side of the father is the naughty daughter, laughing at the camera with clear eyes. On the other side of the woman is another girl with medium-length hair tied behind her back. She looks like she is looking at the camera, with a smile on her mouth and her hands placed neatly on both sides. She looks like she is away from these three people.
“Mom, today’s apples are delicious.” Chi Jing, wearing pajamas and a bun, biting an apple, her legs casually draped on the sofa, talked to her stepmother, “The apple last time was so sour, it made my teeth ache. ”
When Zhou Sulian heard this, she smiled: “Liangliang really knows the goods, this time the fruit was brought by your second aunt, saying that it was sent from a friend’s orchard in S province, not from a fruit store.” She compared A thumbs up, Chi Liang cheered, and she laughed so hard.
“Girls, how can you sit like this every day?” Chi Jianhua, who was watching the news, raised his eyes in dissatisfaction and stared at his daughter, who had no sitting posture at all, “Su Lian, you just dote on her, look at everything. She’s so spoiled! Now she can’t even learn to sit properly.”
Chi Liang hurriedly sat up straight and grimaced at her father: “Dad, why are you so fierce, you care too much! Mom won’t listen to you!”
Zhou Sulian sat next to Chi Liang, put her arms around her, and agreed: “How can someone criticize our Liangliang every day, who doesn’t say that she is obedient and good-looking?”
“Look at you, hum, Mom is really on my side, so I’ll ignore you.” Chi Liang got support and showed off her power.
“Really.” Chi Jianhua pretended to be angry, and then laughed again, “I can’t do anything to you! “He shrugged and continued to watch his news. The two mother and daughter behind him gave a victory, high-fives excitedly, and celebrated each other’s victory. He didn’t care that Chi Jianhua was by his side, and wanted him to be angry and funny.
On the short sofa by the balcony, there was also a girl sitting upright, with her hair draped over her shoulders, as if she was watching TV, but she was quietly lost in thoughts.
Zhou Qin has become accustomed to the “Happy Family” series that will be staged in front of her every day. The performers include her stepfather, stepsister and her mother. As for her, she is an audience who should be there.
Obviously in the same space, like an invisible line separating several people, she is on this end, they are on the other end.
“Qinqin, why don’t you eat fruit?” Zhou Sulian then noticed her daughter, she pushed the fruit plate over, “Liang Liang said that today’s apples are delicious, you can try it.”
Zhou Qin nodded, silently took an apple from the fruit bowl, bit it in one bite, it was sour, and she couldn’t tell whether it was sour in her heart or sour in her mouth.
“By the way, how was your monthly exam result this time?” Chi Jianhua had finished watching the news and started to play commercials. He came back to his senses and suddenly remembered that this was the time when the monthly exam results of H City Foreign Language Middle School were released, “Liang Liang, how did you do? ”
“Dad—” Chi Liang lengthened her voice and said to him, “The weather is fine today, so it’s not suitable to talk about grades.”
Chi Jianhua narrowed his eyes: “How many points?”
Chi Liang lowered her head, not daring to eat the apple, put it on the table, and pointed her finger: “I was careless this time, and I did a little worse, just a little bit, and I was sixth in the class, and I dropped one place.” Till now, her legs are still swaying, and she looks cautious, but she shows a bit of a fearless demeanor. After all, Chi Jianhua has no habit of hitting and scolding children.
“Look at you.” Chi Jianhua’s voice became heavier, “When will you change your careless habit? I’ve told you several times. When you were promoted to the middle school, the head teacher in the junior high school asked me to tell you to check more, but you still can’t learn it. ”
“I didn’t mean it.” Chi Liang muttered.
“You’re still talking back?” Chi Jianhua was so angry at his pampered daughter that he couldn’t bear to scold or beat her.
“I was wrong, Dad, don’t be angry.” Chi Liang approached her father eagerly, leaning on his shoulder and rubbing back and forth, “My dad is the best, how could he care so much about me? ”
“Su Lian, look at her!”
Zhou Sulian spoke up: “Jianhua, haven’t we talked about it? Don’t scold the child, don’t talk about the child, and besides, Liangliang didn’t deliberately fail the exam, she’s already very remorseful, right?” She hinted with her eyes, Chi Liang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
“You just side with her! “Chi Jianhua helplessly rubbed his daughter’s head, “Next time—”
Chi Liang immediately made an oath gesture: “I swear to God, that I, Chi Liang, will never be careless next time. If I don’t check the exam paper five times, I will take my father’s surname!”
Chi Jianhua didn’t react at first, but when he saw his daughter and wife laughing, he realized the mystery behind the words: “You are so clever. “His voice was full of love for his daughter. He suddenly paused, and saw his stepdaughter sitting there motionless. He had complicated emotions towards her. He thought about accepting this stepdaughter into the family for Su Lian’s sake, but this time, he was a man and he was somewhat dismissive of Su Lian’s ex-husband; secondly, he was afraid that his teenage daughter would be sensitive and emotional; thirdly, to be honest, Su Lian’s daughter was indeed a little petty, always silent, not as lively as his own daughter, Liang Liang, and didn’t know any social etiquette in front of relatives. For example, his brothers still had a general opinion of Zhou Qin.
