Liu Pianran glanced at Xiao Jingfan helplessly, thinking that this little guy really couldn't hide things. But at the same time, she also understood Xiao Jingfan's innocence and kindness, and could not tolerate lies and deception.
"Then are you willing to let Uncle Xie be your father?" Sometimes children's reactions cannot lie. If little Jingfan is willing, it means that Xie Jingzhi is really good to the child.
After hearing this, Xiao Jingfan's eyes lit up instantly, like two shining stars. She blinked, showing an innocent smile, and then nodded vigorously to show her agreement.
"Uncle Xie, are you going to be my dad? Will we be a family from now on, including Mom and me? Jingjing will no longer be a fatherless child." Little Jingfan was already in kindergarten, so she knew the concept of a father. Although she had never had one in her life, she knew other children had them. Some people even teased her about being an unwanted child, but she kept it to herself for fear of upsetting her mother. Now, when she heard the question, anticipation and excitement welled up in her. She imagined herself with a complete family, free from the ridicule of others.
A happy smile filled Jingfan's face, and a glimmer of hope shone in her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly, as if to convince herself that all this was real. She began to look forward to her future life, imagining happy times with Xie Jingzhi.
"That's great!" Little Jingfan was so excited that he danced with joy, his face filled with a happy smile, and he cheered loudly, "I'm going to have a dad! I can show off to my classmates!"
When Liu Yanran heard this, her heart sank. She immediately squatted down and asked Xiao Jingfan with concern: "Baby, did any classmates at school say something unpleasant to you? What did they say?"
Little Jingfan nodded aggrievedly, tears flashing in his eyes, and he choked back his tears as he replied, "Well, they said only my mother came to pick me up and she never met my father, so they said I didn't have a father... Auntie, Uncle Xie is my father from now on, right?"
Xie Jingzhi's heart ached upon hearing this. He quickly picked up Little Jingfan and softly comforted her, "I'm sorry, Little Jingfan. Daddy didn't abandon you. Daddy just got lost and came a little late. Can you forgive Daddy?" His voice was filled with guilt and self-blame, and his eyes were moist. At this moment, he completely regarded Little Jingfan as his own biological daughter, his heart filled with love and care for her.
Seeing this scene, everyone was deeply moved, and no one doubted Xie Jingzhi's sincerity anymore. Just then, there was a knock on the door. It turned out that the waiter had started to serve the dishes. Everyone stood up and helped set the table, preparing to enjoy a sumptuous dinner. At the table, everyone enjoyed the food and chatted happily, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
During the meal, everyone discussed Xie Jingzhi and Liu Yanran's wedding date. After a lively discussion, they decided to set the ceremony for Army Day, August 1st, three months later. This special day symbolizes strength, bravery, and loyalty, implying that their love is as strong as steel.
The whole dinner ended in a joyful and warm atmosphere, and everyone left with satisfaction and blessings. Xie Jingzhi and Liu Yanran's future is full of hope, and Xiao Jingfan finally has a complete family, and her life will become better.
