The more outstanding the two daughters are now, the more incompetent their biological father, Xu Huaiyuan, seemed in the past.
Jiang Tong's "slap" still landed from afar.
The sound echoed in Xu Huaiyuan's ears.
It seemed to be telling him how ridiculous his previous words were, such as Jiang Tong couldn't live without him, and that Jiang Tong would never find a good man again.
Now she has clearly slapped him in the face, making him realize that she can live perfectly well without him.
Xu Huaiyuan's face suddenly felt burning. He said to his two daughters, "Even you two like him? Just because that man is rich?!"
Wang Chungui jumped up and down, yelling, "If I'd known your mother had brainwashed you all, I shouldn't have let her take you back! And Dad? Who's your dad? How dare you call someone else 'Dad'?!"
Hanhan calmly said in her little voice, "What's wrong with you letting Peipei call that stepmother 'Daddy' and Peipei calling 'Daddy' 'Old Daddy'? That's fair."
Xu Huaiyuan's gaze fell on his eldest daughter. He used to dislike her for not being close to him, not knowing how to act cute, and being like a block of wood. Now he realized that her thinking logic was no less than that of an adult. Could a child her age really say such things?
He stared intently at Hanhan and said, "What did you call him? Daddy? You've never even called me 'Dad' since we met, and you call that wild man 'Daddy'?!"
Hanhan raised her chin and said seriously, "What? I can't call him that? You're not worthy to be my dad? You're the one who insulted those two words, so I find them dirty. Daddy is much better than you. He's a gentleman and gentle, and he treats me equally. He never looks down on me just because I'm a child!"
all in all.
The new dad is better than his old dad. The new dad is a capable and competent one, unlike the ex-dad who talks a good game but doesn't deliver on any promises.
Although Hanhan's voice was still young, it was firm and resolute. She sneered, "You haven't called me by my name once since you arrived here!"
Xu Huaiyuan's expression immediately changed. Indeed, he had been calling Peipei the whole time and hadn't called Hanhan's name once.
No wonder the child is distant from him.
Xu Huaiyuan realized that he had never really understood this daughter he had neglected, let alone knew that she had grown up to this point.
He chose to give up on Hanhan and instead tried to win over Peipei. His main goal was to bring Peipei back with him. "So, Peipei, you don't want your dad anymore? You don't want your grandparents either? Think about it, don't your grandparents love you too? Before, if you wanted something, you could just whine and your dad would buy it for you, right? When your mom scolded you, who protected you behind her back?"
Xu Huaiyuan started using moral blackmail, saying to Peipei, "If you don't come back, you'll be a real ingrate. It's a waste that your father and grandparents love you so much. Leaving you with your mother was a last resort."
Peipei wasn't stupid; on the contrary, she was quite shrewd. Now she understood even more that life would be better with her mother, and that her mother loved her very much. She didn't want to leave her sister either, so she immediately retorted in her childish voice, "I don't believe it! If she really loves me, why can't she protect me? Why does she have to send me away?"
She recalled the past, and a guilty look appeared on her face. "Moreover, the teacher said that spoiling someone is not love, it is harmful, it is called killing with praise. My mother used to do it for my own good, but I always hurt her. That was wrong of me."
When Peipei talked about these things, her eyes reddened, and she raised her hand to wipe away her tears.
Hanhan also expressed her dissatisfaction with her ex-father's bullying of her younger sister, saying, "Do you have to reopen old wounds for Peipei? She already knows she was wrong and is correcting herself. Her teacher even praised her for being a good child who knows her mistakes and can correct them!"
Peipei immediately pouted, turned around and hugged Hanhan's waist, buried her head in her back, and started to be unhappy as she hid behind her older sister.
She doesn't like her ex-father and grandparents either, and she promised her new father that she would never live with them again. She will not betray her new father.
Xu Huaiyuan was already in despair. He never expected that his eldest daughter, who was not close to him, would also "betray" him and be completely brainwashed by Jiang Tong.
He said bitterly, "But Dad loves you all and didn't mean to hurt you."
Hanhan frowned upon hearing this. "Is this what your love is? We didn't feel it. The teacher said that love that can't be felt isn't love."
Because love is something that cannot be hidden.
Wang Chungui was devastated. She muttered to herself, "It's all over, Peipei is hopeless. Now she keeps calling me 'teacher.' What do you two know? You think everything the teacher says is right, and everything your mother says is right?!"
Hanhan didn't want to talk to them anymore.
Xu Huaiyuan suddenly spoke up, "This matter doesn't allow you to refuse. I will fight for your custody. There are some things your children don't understand. You're still young and don't know your father's difficulties..."
Hanhan looked disgusted. She couldn't understand how her ex-father could be so crazy, and she was also a little angry.
She hated her ex-dad's condescending attitude. She had already said that her new dad would treat them, the children, equally and respect their ideas.
But my ex-dad was always inexplicably confident, thinking that you should be like this, that you don't understand, and that you have to listen to me.
Hanhan chuckled and said, "Then go ahead and try to take it. Mommy and Daddy both said they'll protect us. No matter how hard you try, you won't get it!"
She turned around, grabbed Peipei's wrist, and tried to pull her back to the classroom, not wanting to pay any more attention to them.
Xu Huaiyuan was hurt by the two heartless little figures, but then another little figure came running from not far away. A mixed-race boy rushed out like a cannonball and charged at the mother and son, pointing at them fiercely and cursing, "Bad people, bad people, bad people! If you dare to bully Hanhan and Peipei, I'll have Daddy beat you to death! Be careful, I'll tell Grandpa and Grandma, I'll tell my great-grandparents, I'll tell all my uncles, aunts, and cousins, and they'll beat you to a pulp and give you a good spanking!"
Zhou Jiaqi only knew that Hanhan and Peipei's ex-father had come to his door. He knew they wanted to take Peipei away, and might even take Hanhan away as well. So he was furious, his blue eyes blazing with anger, like a fire-breathing dragon.
Hanhan had never seen Zhou Jiaqi so fierce before. He waved his little fists, his face flushed with anger. She turned her head and took his hand again. "Come on, let's not talk to bad people. We'll let Daddy teach him a lesson later. And don't tell Mommy."
Zhou Jiaqi was led by Hanhan, but he kept turning back to glare at Xu Huaiyuan and the others.
Wang Chungui was so angry that she had a heart attack and couldn't speak. When she saw a little kid appear, who seemed to be Jiang Tong's child, she became even angrier and almost fainted. She had to calm herself down.
She patted her chest, "Phew, this child! Jiang Tong is so wicked! She's stolen all the children's hearts, and now she even makes my granddaughter think of me as a mean grandma! Waaah!"
Wang Chungui burst into tears, pounding her chest and stamping her feet; her crying was incredibly ugly.
Xu Huaiyuan sighed wearily. He stared intently at the three small figures, his desire to bring his daughter back growing stronger. He couldn't let Jiang Tong completely break off with him.
If he's not doing well, she can't be either!
