Zhang Feng instinctively assud it was Shen Hanshan calling.
So without looking, he directly answered the phone.
But instead, a clear voice ca through the receiver:
"Daddy!!"
Oh boy.
That one word almost made Zhang Feng throw his phone away.
He thought Shen Hanshan, at such an age, was playing it this wild.
Calling him daddy right off the bat?
However, Zhang Feng quickly pulled the phone away from his ear.
He saw that the caller ID displayed an unknown number.
Then, Zhang Feng cautiously and tentatively asked:
"Xue'Er?"
"Yes, Xue'Er, Daddy! This is Xue'Er's phone watch, Daddy, make sure to rember Xue'Er's number, okay!"
Mu Xue'Er's sharp voice ca through the phone.
Zhang Feng let out a long sigh of relief.
Luckily, it was Xue'Er. If it really were Shen Hanshan, that would've been quite unseemly.
After exhaling, Zhang Feng's face softened and he spoke tenderly:
"Xue'Er, what's up? Why the call to Daddy at this ti?"
After spending over a day with Xue'Er, Zhang Feng had unconsciously co to accept himself as Xue'Er's daddy.
Strictly speaking, it's not really acceptance.
More like he's gotten used to it.
It doesn't have much impact anyway.
However, Zhang Feng forgot one thing.
That is, he's currently at Lin Rui's house.
Mu Xue'Er's voice was already quite loud and sharp over the phone, and Lin Rui's mother vaguely overheard parts but didn't think much of it.
But when Zhang Feng himself said "Daddy," Lin Rui's mother's pupils instantly dilated, looking at Zhang Feng with disbelief.
Later, she stiffly turned her neck to look at Zhang Feng's girlfriend, Ma Xiaotong, who was sitting on the other side.
The look in her eyes was indeed fascinating.
But Lin Rui didn't notice any of this, because in her awareness, she also knew who Zhang Feng was Daddy to.
Also knowing that Mu Xue'Er wasn't Zhang Feng's biological daughter, she didn't react much.
But her arm did tense slightly.
When she turned to look, it turned out to be her mother.
Just as she was about to ask her mother what was going on.
Her mother surprised her by directly covering her own mouth with her hand, then dragging her out of the dining room and all the way into the bathroom.
Zhang Feng didn't notice any of this.
Because Mu Xue'Er on the phone had already answered Zhang Feng's question:
"Because Xue'Er misses Daddy! Xue'Er enjoyed being with Daddy yesterday; it was fun and joyous!"
Then, Mu Xue'Er crisply asked:
"Daddy, are you still working?"
Xue'Er evidently rembered the work call Zhang Feng received this morning.
Due to Xue'Er's family circumstances, even though Xue'Er hadn't started elentary school yet, she was already quite sensible.
She knew not to disturb her father's work, which is why she asked.
Zhang Feng, hearing Xue'Er yearning for him, felt a warmth inside.
He instinctively wanted to say, Daddy's not working now.
But as the words were about to leave his mouth, he swallowed them back.
Because he rembered Shen Hanshan.
If he said he wasn't working, Xue'Er would definitely want him to accompany her. Should he go or not?
If he went, what if Shen Hanshan called in the middle?
If he didn't go, how could he be a good daddy if he wasn't working and not accompanying his daughter?
Oh well!
Zhang Feng, Zhang Feng, rember, you're not Mu Xue'Er's father, don't end up being the fall guy!
So, Zhang Feng said into the phone:
"Xue'Er, Daddy is working."
"Oh...." Hearing Zhang Feng's answer, Mu Xue'Er's voice clearly had a tinge of disappointnt.
But soon, Mu Xue'Er chirped again:
"Then Daddy, when you're done working, can you co play with Xue'Er?"
"Of course!" For this request, Zhang Feng couldn't find any reason to refuse.
Hearing Zhang Feng's affirmative response, Mu Xue'Er made an excited exclamation:
"Yay!! That's great! Thank you, Daddy, Daddy! Xue'Er loves you! Mwah!"
"Then Xue'Er won't disturb Daddy's work, goodbye Daddy!"
"Goodbye." Listening to Mu Xue'Er's innocent and joyful voice, Zhang Feng's face always wore a gentle auntie smile.
Just as he was about to hang up, another unexpected voice ca through the phone receiver.
It was still Mu Xue'Er, but it seed like Mu Xue'Er wasn't talking to Zhang Feng anymore, but to soone else.
You could hear Xue'Er saying:
"Daddy said he'd co play with Xue'Er after work!"
"Mommy! Aunt Yuanyuan, Daddy is Xue'Er's Daddy, not yours, why are you both happier than Xue'Er? Can you not compete with Xue'Er for Daddy?"
"Beep beep beep beep——"
Mu Xue'Er either wasn't familiar with operating the phone watch, or the phone watch had a delay.
It was after these two sentences were said that the dial tone was heard from Zhang Feng's phone.
But.
What did Mu Xue'Er's last sentence an?
What did she an by competing with Xue'Er for Daddy?!
What on earth were Mu Qianqian and Yuan Yuanyuan doing?!
Could it be that they made Xue'Er call him?
No way....
For so reason, an odd feeling rose in Zhang Feng's heart.
But before he could figure it out, he noticed Lin Rui and Lin Rui's mother had vanished.
Zhang Feng put away his phone and went to the living room, sitting next to Ma Xiaotong, casually asking:
"Where did those two go?"
Ma Xiaotong pointed toward the bathroom without any emotion and said:
"They're in there gossiping about us."
"Gossip...gossip...."
Listening to Ma Xiaotong's reply, Zhang Feng couldn't help but twitch his eyes twice.
"Where did you learn such words?"
Zhang Feng realized, the changing tis really made it easy for people to go astray.
Look at what Ma Xiaotong used to be like?
And look at Ma Xiaotong now?
Even Valentino and Balenciaga have been "hmm-hmm" by her.
Sigh...
Let's not talk about it.
But.
"Why are they gossiping about us?"
Hearing Zhang Feng's question.
Ma Xiaotong slowly turned her head, her gray eyes looking at Zhang Feng, stiffly saying:
"Now, you've beco a lousy guy who abandons his wife and children, and I, a mistress ruining soone's relationship."
"What?!"
Upon hearing Ma Xiaotong's response, Zhang Feng reflexively jumped up from the sofa.
Indeed.
It was precisely because of Zhang Feng's recent phone call.
In Lin Rui's mother's mind, the image of Zhang Feng and Ma Xiaotong instantly beca like this.
Moreover, Lin Rui's mother thought that dragging her daughter into the bathroom to say these things surely ant no one could hear.
However, she really didn't know, Zhang Feng and Ma Xiaotong were not the normal, ordinary people she thought they were.
At this mont, Lin Rui, who was dragged into the bathroom by her mother, also stared with big wide eyes, looking at her mother in shock, exaggeratingly saying:
"Mom! Do you hear what you're saying?!"
"How can you think of them like this?"
