An Exquisite Dog Hole (3)
The winter night weather was very cold with a chilly wind howling. They were very miserable.
Jiang Xing carried Jiang Xiaoman under his arm, took out the car key and drove out.
After driving all the way, they found that the streets were very quiet, and the typically busy shops were all closed.
Everyone had gone home for New Year, so how could anyone have stayed and sold food at this time?
The uncle and niece pair stared at each other again.
After a pause, Jiang Xing said, “Shall we go to eat KFC?”
“Ok.”
There was no other way. At this time, probably only that kind of chain would be open.
Jiang Xing thanked those who were still working during the New Year!
It didn’t take long for them to find a KFC near the playground. There were quite a lot of people. Although it was not as crowded as usual with the long lines, it was still pretty lively compared to other places on the street.
They ate and drank to their hearts’ content.
Jiang Xing asked, “Do you want to play?”
Jiang Xiaoman touched her belly. She wanted to go home directly, but thinking about it, she hadn’t played with her uncle for a long time.
“Okay!” Jiang Xiaoman said, “I want to ride the merry-go-round!”
The merry-go-round it was then; the playground was also nearby.
Jiang Xing picked up the child and went out the door again.
But when he got to the playground, he was dumbfounded again.
It was also closed!
Jiang Xiaoman’s mouth flattened and she looked like she was about to cry.
Jiang Xing felt a headache coming. Suddenly, he crouched down with all limbs on the ground. “Come on, little ancestor. You ride me, can I be a horse for you?”
“What are you doing?” Jiang Xiaoman kicked his hand with her little leg, frowning and saying, “Get up quickly. If you get sick, Grandma will scold you! I won’t help you!”
It was really cold on the ground, and Jiang Xing would not have made such a sacrifice if she wasn’t about to cry.
“It’s okay, Xiaoman. When it opens in the future, I will bring you over to play, okay? Let’s play from the start till the end, we’ll play all there is to play here. We’ll play our hearts out.”
“Liar. You’re usually so busy that I only see you once in a few days.”
“There’s no other way. With great power comes great responsibility.” Jiang Xing sighed.
His business was getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more things to worry about. Jiang Xing couldn’t leave it all to his subordinates yet, so he could only stay so busy everyday to the point where his feet couldn’t even touch the floor.
The little one in his family was looking forward to him coming home, so why wouldn’t he want to?
Jiang Xiaoman made a long sigh and said, “I know that this is how all fathers are. Although you are Uncle, you’re the same.”
Jiang Xing simply chatted with her on the bench.
“Does Xiaoman want a father?”
“I don’t.”
“Why not?”
“I met my dad here last time.” Jiang Xiaoman said, “But I couldn’t find him, and I didn’t know what he looked like. Later on, I met him and he was really, really bad. He has other children and doesn’t want me anymore and even scolded me. I still remember it even now.”
When she talked about this, her memory resurfaced and she let her grievances out.
There was no other way. She also didn’t want to talk about such a thing that made her so downcast, but she was a child with a good memory. As soon as she spoke, she instantly remembered everything again.
At that time, she and Yu Qingshi came here to play but the system suddenly broke down. It couldn’t make any sound, and they missed her father.
The system gave her a mission with a lot of points. In order to find her parents, Jiang Xiaoman lost Yu Qingshi. The two fought because of this and entered a cold war, ignoring each other for a long time.
Jiang Xing was just asking casually and didn’t expect her to say that. His face instantly became serious and he asked, “What dad?”
“My father, of course.”
“Do you know who your father is?” No one knew about this matter, not even Jiang Xing himself and Jiang Xiumei. How did this kid know? Why haven’t they heard her mention it before?
“I don’t know.”
“Then what were you talking about?”
“I…I…” Jiang Xiaoman went silent for a while as her little head struggled to sort out her thoughts. She didn’t want that father, so she said with a guilty conscience, “Maybe it was a dream.”
Jiang Xing stopped speaking. He picked up the child and went home.
How could Xiaoman have such a dream?
After returning home, Jiang Xiaoman was tired and soon fell asleep. Jiang Xing hesitated for a while and secretly pulled out a strand of her hair, planning to let someone test it later.
Science now was more advanced than before, and it might really be able to detect one or two things.
Maybe, he and Xiaoman might really have some blood relation. Was she really his sister’s child?
If that was the case, then there was no need to overthink things. What he had to do was to find the bastard who tricked his sister’s heart and body and beat him up.
