Chapter 104 Thinking about my daughter? Dream on!
Lou Hongjian was surrounded by his brothers.
He was cornered, his two fingers pressed together beside his head, and he swore to the heavens: "I haven't left Mao Mao's side for a single moment. I was standing at the door when she went to the toilet, and I never let Mao Mao out of my sight. I really don't know when he said that!"
"you do not know?"
"I really don't know!" Lou Hongjian exclaimed. "If I had known, I would have complained long ago! That Mr. Nie isn't a good person, how could I let him be Mao Mao's godfather?"
Lou Fengju toyed with the gun in his hand, a nonchalant sneer on his lips: "I asked you to accompany Mao Mao to visit someone, but you didn't even know when he said those words. How dare you say you stayed by his side every step of the way?"
Lou Hongjian: "..."
Lou Hongjian immediately turned his head and looked at Lou Heming for help: "Second brother, say a few words."
Lou Heming tried to smooth things over: "Brother, I believe Ah Hong. He didn't do it on purpose. If Mr. Nie had intended it, Ah Hong wouldn't have been a match for him."
Lou Fengju: "Heh."
Lou Hongjian: "..."
Lou Hongjian cried out for help: "A-Sui, say something!"
Before his younger brother could speak, Lou Hongjian turned around: "A-Sui?"
Lou Yansui, who had been surrounding him, had disappeared. After searching around, he finally found him next to his sister.
Mao Mao sat in Lou Dashuai's lap, surrounded and questioned by the wives.
"Uncle said that a person can have two dads!" Mao Mao said happily. "Uncle asked Mao Mao if he could be Mao Mao's dad, and Mao Mao agreed."
"You agreed?!"
Lou Dashuai's eyes widened, and he subconsciously raised his voice. He was nudged by his wife sitting next to him before he realized what he had done and lowered his voice to coax his daughter, "Maomao, how could you agree to that? He's lying to you. You only need me as your father."
"Why not?"
"Who has two fathers?"
Mao Mao looked up at him, puzzled: "But Mao Mao has five mothers and four brothers."
Commander Lou: "..."
That's undeniable.
Lou Yansui suddenly spoke up: "That's different. We are a family, living in the same house, so Dad is your dad. Mr. Nie is not from our family, so he doesn't count."
General Lou's spirits lifted, and he gave his son an approving look: "That's right, exactly!"
Mao Mao looked at them longingly: "Can't Mao Mao be Uncle's daughter?"
Everyone shouted in unison: "No!"
"oh……"
Mao Mao lowered her little head, her soft, baby voice revealing a visibly somber mood.
The third concubine couldn't help but ask, "Baby, do you really want Mr. Nie to be your father?"
“But…” Mao Mao clasped her little hands together, her chubby little face full of sadness: “But he is so pitiful.”
Everyone: "..."
“Uncle lives alone in a very big house, without any family. When ghosts come to eat his toes at night, no one covers him with a blanket.” Mao Mao said sadly, “Uncle said he has no father or mother, no children, only Mao Mao to play with.”
Everyone: "..."
Mao Mao's eyes were wet, and her soft, baby voice was heavy with nasal sounds: "Uncle is really pitiful."
Everyone: "..."
Lou Dashuai's forehead veins throbbed.
He had dealt with Nie Zhengyun so many times, how could he not know that the guy could play the victim?
A grown man like you, playing the victim with a three-year-old child, isn't he ashamed?
But a strategy doesn't need to be sophisticated, as long as it works.
Clearly, their naive and easily fooled little girl believed him wholeheartedly, showing that she genuinely pitied him.
"—He's pathetic my foot!"
Commander Lou hugged his youngest daughter tightly: "If he wants children, let him have them himself! If he can't, there are so many orphans in the Haicheng orphanage, plenty of children for him to raise. He's eyeing my daughter? Dream on!"
Lou Dashuai's voice was booming, his chest trembling, making Mao Mao's ears ring.
She rubbed her little ears, and seeing her action, the First Madam gave Commander Lou a hard shove and took Mao Mao out of his arms.
The ladies gathered around, touching her little face and squeezing her little hands, sighing, "Our Mao Mao is so cute, no wonder she's so popular."
"That's right, wasn't the Commander-in-Chief the same way? He kept talking about it every day after he got home."
"Our matriarch is always kind and gentle when she sees Mao Mao; she's always smiling."
Old Madam Lou said sternly, "Ahem."
The big white cat also placed its paws on the sofa: "Meow—"
"However—" the second concubine changed the subject, saying, "That Mr. Nie only said he wanted to be a godfather, so there's no conflict..."
Before she could finish speaking, Commander Lou loudly retorted from the side, "I won't allow it!"
The second concubine swallowed what she was about to say.
Lou Dashuai clenched his fists, as big as sandbags, indignantly: "I knew it! A grown man like him befriending a three-year-old? He must have ulterior motives. I don't agree to this. Mao Mao only has one father; even if the King of Heaven himself came, I wouldn't take him away!"
Xia Xiaoxiang stood to the side, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping herself.
Mao Mao also has a biological father...
But she didn't say it out loud.
Because Commander Lou was already furious.
If anger had a physical form, he would already be engulfed in flames by now.
But the culprit, Nie Zhengyun, wasn't there, so there was no basis for his accusations. Commander Lou clenched his fists and was furious for a long time before suddenly shouting, "Lou Hongjian!"
Lou Sanshao, who was hiding in a corner trying to make himself inconspicuous, shuddered: "!"
...
In the evening, Xia Xiaoxiang gave her precious daughter a fragrant bath.
Using imported shampoo, she rubbed it on her from head to toe. When her daughter came out of the bathroom, she was a sweet and soft little thing that everyone loved. Xia Xiaoxiang kissed her soft, milky face several times.
I had just finished applying face cream to Mao Mao when there was a knock on the door.
"Knock knock knock," it sounded a bit urgent.
It wasn't surprising to Xia Xiaoxiang that someone was knocking on the door late at night.
There's nothing they can do; her daughter is just too adorable, and people often want to take her away.
Most of the visitors were maids sent by the third and fourth young masters, and occasionally people sent by the eldest and second young masters, or the third concubine.
However, recently it has been the Fourth Young Master who has sent people.
Because the Fourth Young Master's leg hadn't fully healed after surgery, everyone was accommodating to him.
Xia Xiaoxiang opened the door as usual, but standing outside was not the maid Ah Chun, but an unexpected person.
She opened her eyes wide: "General? What brings you here so late?"
Lou Dashuai's tiger-like eyes looked straight past her into the room, his gaze sweeping over the little girl sitting on the bed playing with her toes. He immediately called out, "Mao Mao, you're sleeping with Daddy tonight!"
Xia Xiaoxiang: "..."
