The little one's movents were wobbly and unsteady. Fortunately, Pei Chiyao was quick to react, grabbing her and securing her firmly in the crook of his arm, preventing Little Lychee from falling.
"Alright, alright, stop fussing. Daddy was wrong. I shouldn't have called Mommy a fool. Daddy's the real fool here," he hurriedly apologized.
Hearing this, Little Lychee finally decided to let Pei Chiyao off the hook. She let out a small huff and said, "Next ti you talk about Mommy like that, I won't talk to you ever again."
Pei Chiyao realized that his beloved daughter clearly held Zhi Yao in the highest regard.
But this actually made Pei Chiyao feel proud. After all, Zhi Yao had gone through so much pain and effort to bring her into this world.
It seed that their little fox was a very conscientious and grateful one, which pleased Pei Chiyao imnsely.
After coaxing the little one to finish her milk, Pei Chiyao sat on the sofa with Little Lychee in his arms.
Fifteen had already turned on the TV, which was playing Little Lychee's favorite cartoon — PAW Patrol.
As soon as Little Lychee saw the TV, she instantly forgot about everything that had just happened.
She quickly focused her attention on the screen. Soon, one episode of the cartoon finished, and as the ending credits rolled, Little Lychee excitedly clapped her hands and said, "Daddy, brother! That little boy in the cartoon is so handso. I want to marry him!"
Upon hearing this, both Pei Chiyao and Fifteen's expressions changed.
Just as Pei Chiyao was about to speak, Fifteen beat him to it. He quickly hugged his little sister and asked, "Little Lychee, who did you say you want to marry?"
"I want to marry Qi!" Little Lychee replied without hesitation. "The dog who drives the blue car we just saw. He's so handso! I really like him!"
A dog?!
It's actually a dog??
Fifteen was stunned. He picked up Little Lychee and sat her on his lap, looking at her seriously. "Little Lychee, he's a dog, and you're a human. You two can't be together. Besides, you're still little. You shouldn't be thinking about these things."
How on earth did Little Lychee manage to think about such things when she was still at the age of drinking milk?
Could this child be a bit too precocious?
But Little Lychee earnestly retorted, "I'm not human, I'm a fox! A fox!"
As she spoke, the fox ears on her head twitched in sync, and Little Lychee shouted out the slogan: "No job is too big, no pup is too small! Yeah! I want to be a brave little fox!"
Just as she finished speaking, the next episode of the cartoon started playing automatically.
Little Lychee imdiately quieted down, about to continue watching, when suddenly, with a "click," the TV screen turned grey.
Little Lychee quickly looked around to see what had happened, only to find Pei Chiyao holding the remote control.
Clearly, he had just turned off the TV.
Little Lychee hurriedly ran over and hugged Pei Chiyao's arm, saying, "Daddy, Daddy! Why did you turn off my TV? Little Lychee hasn't watched for a full hour yet today!"
Pei Chiyao picked up Little Lychee, who was crawling back and forth on his lap. "If Little Lychee wants to watch TV, she'll have to answer Daddy's questions nicely."
Pei Chiyao thought Little Lychee would agree, but he didn't expect her to have such clear reasoning.
Little Lychee tilted her head, looking very confused and righteous, "Why do I have to answer questions? Daddy and Mommy promised Little Lychee that I could watch cartoons for an hour every day. This is what Little Lychee deserves. I don't want to answer questions!"
Pei Chiyao never imagined his daughter could be so clever in this aspect.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Since this approach didn't work, he decided to try a different tactic to tempt her. "Well, does Little Lychee want to eat so chocolate today?"
Cho... chocolate?!
Little Lychee's eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded vigorously, "Yes!! I want it so, so much!"
Usually, Pei Chiyao wouldn't let her eat too many sweets.
Sotis, when Mommy couldn't bear it anymore, she would secretly give her a piece or two of chocolate, but Daddy always found out.
She never imagined that today she would have the chance for Daddy to offer her chocolate voluntarily. This absolutely delighted Little Lychee.
"Then Little Lychee must tell the truth, okay?" Pei Chiyao's tone was full of temptation.
Little Lychee nodded and said, "Don't worry, Daddy. Little Lychee never lies. Mommy told that little foxes who lie will grow long noses."
She trusted what Mommy said the most.
"Then tell , Little Lychee, who taught you to say that you want to marry that little dog brother earlier?"
Actually, Pei Chiyao could guess without asking – it must have been her mother.
Sure enough, the next second Little Lychee said, "It was Mommy!"
Fifteen keenly sensed a hint of danger. He quickly grabbed his sister's little hand and gently squeezed it.
However, not only did his sister fail to understand his aning, she looked at him puzzled and said, "Brother, why are you squeezing my hand? It hurts a little."
What a delicate little thing!
Fifteen felt a bit exasperated. He barely used any strength, and he was trying to hint to Little Lychee to stop talking. Everyone in this family knew that their father was an extrely jealous person! With what Little Lychee just said, when Mommy cos back, she's going to face a big punishnt. Of course, they usually get dragged into it too.
His father's most common excuse was blaming him for not watching over Mommy properly.
Please, he's just a baby too!
Having parents like this, he really was dood!
Pei Chiyao glanced at Fifteen, his eyes containing a warning.
Then, Pei Chiyao turned on the TV and pointed to the popular show playing, asking, "Do you rember which male lead Mommy was talking about?"
Little Lychee bit her finger, but before she could suck on it, Pei Chiyao quickly pulled it away. "No biting your fingers."
Little Lychee let out a pitiful "Oh," looking exactly like Zhi Yao. Seeing this, his heart instantly softened, and he couldn't resist giving his daughter a kiss. Then, in a gentler tone, he said, "Tell Daddy which male lead it is, and I'll reward you with a piece of super sweet chocolate, okay?"
At the ntion of super sweet chocolate, Little Lychee's mind seed to clear instantly. She jumped off Pei Chiyao's lap and ran to the TV, pointing at one of the very handso blonde male leads. "It's him, it's him, it's him!" she exclaid. "Mommy said she wants to marry him!"
