Chapter 471 From One to Three

The silly bear walked hand in hand with Daddy as she strode, her eyes wide in wonder as she stared at her surroundings.

Gao Yi lifted her off the ground and stepped into the elevator. They headed to the children’s section on the second floor and entered a shop that sold children’s wear. Upon seeing Gao Yi walk into the shop, they greeted him welcomingly.

Even though this man’s dressing was simple, it was all designer clothes. One look was all it took to know that he wasn’t stingy with his money. In addition, the child in his arms was extremely pretty. The father was handsome, and the daughter was beautiful. How would the mother look like? Well, she wouldn’t be ugly to a certain extent if she was able to give birth to such a pretty child.

Gao Yi put Rainy down on the ground and picked a few clothes for her to try on.

“Do you like this one, Rainy?” he asked.

Rainy was different from other children. She was much more mature and self-opinionated so before he and Xia Ruoxin made any decision, they would discuss with Rainy first and ask for her opinion.

Rainy tilted her head and stared at herself through the mirror and then shook her head. “It’s not nice. I don’t like it.”

Gao Yi picked another set of clothing for her to try again. This time, it was a pink coat that reached her knees. Rainy was petite and skinny, and this coat made her skin look even whiter.

“How about this?” Gao Yi bent down and arranged the clothes on Rainy. He thought that it looked good.

“I like it.” Rainy made a face at the mirror. What a blessing it was to be good-looking. She looked breathtaking even when she made a silly face.

“Daddy, is it expensive?”

Rainy blinked and tugged Gao Yi’s sleeve. “If it’s expensive, then I don’t want it. I have clothes that Mommy made to wear. It’s pretty.”

Gao Yi ruffled her hair. The more sensible she was, the more his heart ached.

“Mm, it’s not expensive. You can get the money back with just one less meal.” He didn’t even look at the price tag on the clothes. He just took out his credit card and handed it to the salesgirl at the side.

The salesgirl took the card hurriedly and swiped it. This coat cost more than a thousand dollars, without any discounts. It was rare for someone to come over and get one for their child. Sometimes, they wouldn’t even have any transactions for as long as a month, but once they do, they wouldn’t need to worry about food for half a month.

She swiped the card. When the money was transferred and after the man signed and walked out, the salesgirl then heaved a sigh of relief. At last, she got the money.

Gao Yi carried the bag of clothes in one hand and held Rainy’s hand in the other. The two of them continued walking forwards. The heaters in the mall were on full blast so walking indoors was much warmer than outdoors, even to the point of sweating. Gao Yi had bought a hat and a scarf for Rainy and a couple pairs of socks. It was nice having a daughter who could wear these pretty clothes. It fulfilled a man’s wish of dolling his daughter up like a princess.

“Little Cutie!” A voice called out from the distance suddenly, making Rainy stop in her tracks. It sounded familiar. Before she could put her finger on it, a man rolled over. All that was left was a few barks.

“Hi, what a coincidence seeing you again. I guess this is fate. Hey, do you think we’re lovers in a previous life? Why is it that I love you so much?” Du Jingtang gushed the moment he saw Rainy. It was a pity he wouldn’t be able to give birth to a daughter. If only he could give birth to one as beautiful as Rainy-no, even half as beautiful as Rainy, he would smile in his sleep.

Rainy hustled closer to Gao Yi as if the person in front of her was a mad man. He was so enthusiastic it was scary.

The smile on Du Jingtang’s face froze.

Oh, no. Now the little cutie hated him.

Rainy gnawed at her fingers and smiled at Du Jingtang suddenly. “Hello, Uncle.”

Du Jingtang’s broken heart was pieced back together. He rubbed his hands and then took out a lollipop as if by magic. “Here, for you.”

Rainy didn’t take it. She lifted her head and widened her eyes, asking for permission.

“Thanks, Uncle.”

Gao Yi placed a hand on Rainy’s head. He vaguely remembered Du Jingtang and had a good impression.

“Thank you, Uncle.” Rainy took the lollipop. She didn’t eat it, just kept it in her pocket.

“Baby, why aren’t you eating?” Gao Yi tugged at Rainy’s hand and asked.

Rainy patted the lollipop in her pocket and raised her chin, smiling bashfully. “Rainy wants to leave it for Mommy. Mommy can do magic and make one lollipop into two! One for Mommy, one for Daddy, and one for Rainy.”

It pulled at Gao Yi’s heartstrings. Only the small Rainy would believe in this kind of fairy tale. There’s no such thing in the world, and there’s no such thing as magic from one item to two, and two to three.

There was only a mother who couldn’t bear to eat it herself, leaving all the food for her daughter.

Du Jingtang looked at his hand and then rested it on his clothes and rubbed forcefully. His hand felt itchy, and he wanted to scratch at the wall. It was such a pity. He finally met the little cutie, but he wasn’t able to carry the soft and fragrant body of the little cutie. She seemed like she put on some weight, and her cheeks were chubbier. Ah, she was too cute. He almost couldn’t take it anymore. He turned around and placed a hand on the wall behind him and then scratched hard. It was a good thing the wall was covered with wallpaper so no matter how much he scratched, he wouldn’t leave a sweaty handprint.

“Itchy hands?” A cold voice made his hair stand.

Du Jingtang retrieved his hand immediately behind his back. He looked behind and replied with a grin.

“Hey, Cousin. You’re here shopping, too?”

“Yeah, I’m getting some stuff.” Chu Lui lifted his wrist and looked at his watch. There was still time so he stopped by to pick up the suit he ordered yesterday.

He didn’t pay much attention to Du Jingtang; neither did he make any small talk as he headed upstairs.

“Hang on, bro. I’ll come with you.”

“Mm.” Chu Lui stopped in his tracks and raised an eyebrow. “Why, you didn’t foot your bills?”

“Haha…” Du Jingtang laughed dryly. “Yes, the queen’s birthday is coming up so I got an expensive one, but I’m quite strapped with cash… so if you could help cover my back first, Cousin…”

“Sure.” Chu Lui wasn’t petty.

Great! Du Jingtang heaved a sigh of relief. That’s great. He just saved a huge sum of money.
