The third day's work ended smoothly, dinner time was finally a chance to enjoy some free time, the sky outside the window was overcast, only the weak light in the inn, poured through the glass windows on the surrounding snow, creating this bit of warm space lonely atmosphere, it seems that in this kind of environment can always make people closer to each other.

  "So many lads working together today, is there a type you like?" Li Haojun was chatting with Kesia between meals.

  "Why do you ask?" Keyshia asked back, her expression cold.

  "I'm, kind of curious about your aesthetic point," Li Haojun looked at her cold response, and also felt that he had asked inappropriately.

  "Didn't I say it, I can feel you, I don't have feelings for them,"

  "I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask that, I'm just afraid," for a moment, Li Haojun didn't know how to answer,

  "Afraid of what? Afraid that I'll regret choosing you?" Keyshia stared at Li Haojun's eyes, which seemed to have never had such an icy stare, and

  "Ah, right, I, somewhat can't believe it, really, the way it is now,"

  "Though I don't seem to see through everything like Marlea does, but at least I still have a pretty good idea of what I want for myself," Said Kesia with a slight smile at the corner of her mouth,

  "I'm sorry, I'm always afraid that I might bring you harm," said Li Haojun, reaching out and pulling Kesia's fingers, looking into her eyes, helplessly shaking his head gently and saying.

  "When did I ever say that I want you to be responsible?"

  "No."

  "Did I ever say I wanted you to marry me?"

  "No."

  "I just need you to love me when you're around me,"

  Li Haojun put down the cutlery in his hands and held Keyshia with both hands, looking into her eyes, hoping that this bit of warmth from his hand grip could melt her icy expression,...

  "I'm sorry, it's my fault, properly, favoring to make you unhappy, let me how to make up for it okay?"

  Only then did Kesia put a smile on her face and said with a grin that

  "That's good, you buy me a drink, red wine will do, I can't drink anything with too much precision,"

  "Good," said Li Haojun happily went to the service desk to get the red wine and cups.

  But when he raised his glass to share a drink, he suddenly hesitated, and Kesia asked, after taking a sip.

  "Why don't you drink?"

  "Uh," Li Haojun hesitated for a moment and whispered into Kesia's ear.

  "I don't trust them, I'm afraid that there's ecstasy in the wine, if you and I aren't intoxicated, who's going to protect you?"

  Not waiting for Li Haojun to finish, Keyshia laughed hahaha, her laughter was bright, as if it was better than the red wine to compensate for her unhappiness just now, Li Haojun sat on the opposite side of the table and had to accompany the awkward laughter, and then asked, "Did Missy approve it?

  "Did Missy approve? You first drink less, I'll drink with you after a while," said Li Haojun a little embarrassed, this is not to take people as a test subject.

  "Let me try drinking is it?" Kesia added, as if she wasn't angry.

  "I'm sorry, I didn't think of this until I brought the red wine back," Li Haojun explained.

  It seemed that Kesia wasn't angry, but after tasting a few sips herself, she took the bottle and read to herself, the

  "One hundred percent Syrah grapes, alcohol 13," said Kesia, her gaze moving from the red wine to Li Haojun.

  "Just now, you said, calling me a great lady, whose great lady am I really? I don't even know myself,"

  Love what you're reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on.

  Saying that, burying her head and savoring the red wine herself.

  At this moment this red wine seems to have become her bitter life, but this is not Li Haojun's intention, hastily distracting her attention so as not to be depressed, so while waving his hand in front of her, he said.

  "Keyshia, Keyshia, why don't you, look, be my first lady, okay? Is that all right? Is it good?" After saying that, Li Haojun didn't know if it was appropriate to say so, so after saying that, he stared at her, whether or not he was upset again, and

  "Really?" Keyshia raised her eyes and looked at Li Haojun.

  "Really, are you willing?" Li Haojun replied seriously.

  "Isn't Emily your first lady?"

  "Oh," Li Haojun hesitated for a moment, thought about it, Qin Wentian didn't say she wanted to be my daughter ah, it's fine for me to commit to Kesia like this, so he answered affirmatively, "No, she didn't say she wanted to be my daughter.

  "No, she didn't say she wanted this position, she's my mate, so you're my first lady," Li Haojun finished eagerly, then waited for her answer, and

  Cathia looked into Li Haojun's eyes for a moment, and said.

  "Good, then from now on, I am your daughter, and papa shall love me like a daughter,"

  "Good daughter," said Li Haojun, pulling her hand.

  Cathia took a sip of the red wine in her hand, then handed it to Li Haojun and said with a smile.

  "Have a drink with your daughter."

  Cathia slowly fed the wine into Li Haojun's mouth, not much was left for him and he drank it all.

  After a few more rounds of drinking to each other, Haojun Li put away the remaining half bottle of wine, and

  "Okay, just drink a little to cheer up, don't overdo it,"

  "Uh-huh," Cathia agreed with a smile.

  Then Li Haojun went to the service desk to get two large bottles of drinking water, assisted Kesia, back to the room, open the indoor lighting only to find that she has been drinking red face, fairness in the red halo, exceptionally fascinating, and

  "Sit down and wake up," Li Haojun assisted Kesia to sit on the edge of the bed.

  "It's okay, slightly dizzy, or lying comfortable," said, a pull Li Haojun accompanied her to lie on the bed, just buried his head in his arms, no longer speak," said Li Haojun.

  Looking at her scarlet cheeks, breathing ups and downs of the chest, Li Haojun felt that today's Keyshia is very emotional, unlike the usual her, calm and serene, sometimes a little mischievous, and today she did not have any hidden their feelings, but all release, Li Haojun himself do not understand what touched her today, and

  Tonight she drank a little too much, her breathing was slightly heavy, Li Haojun gently caressed her cheeks, combing her bangs behind her ears.

  Keyshia turned her head, her eyes were red, she was crying, tears printed on Li Haojun's forehead.

  "What's wrong with you, did you think of something unhappy?" Li Haojun hurriedly inquired.

  "No, I feel happy,"

  Li Haojun was a bit puzzled, tugging at the cotton shirt with her hand, wiping away the tear tracks in her eyes.

  "Daughter, it took twenty years to find my father," Cathia said, somewhat choked.

  Li Haojun then realized that she wanted the warmth of a family, and hurriedly suggested that

  "Then, let Emily be your mom, we are a family, okay?"

  "No good, I've grown up now, I don't need my mom, since she didn't show up, I don't want her, now I just want my dad,"

  "Fine, as long as I'm there for you," Li Haojun's head was sweating a bit, chiding himself, what was wrong with today, he could never think of what Kesia needed. So he had to shut up, and took her head in his arms, looking at her brow, calm and serene. At this point, Li Haojun realized, this girl is pampering, she has never been like this in front of herself, today finally let go of all the guard, identified himself as the person she can entrust her emotions to, only to confide in the pain of so many years.

  Holding Kesia in his arms, looking at her even breathing, seems to be asleep, so Li Haojun took a pillow to give her a good cushion, he went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then washed the two days to change down the underwear, socks, cleaned up to see Kesia is still lying there. Somehow it felt as if she was not at her current age, but twelve years old, a big girl. And Li Haojun himself is also in doubt, before many times in the dream that girl is not her, although that is a few years of age of small children, but in the dream they seem to know that she is their own daughter.

  I don't know why Qin Wenjing was unwilling to have a child with herself, but thinking about how she had lost her memories somehow, she understood her. Could it be that he and she once had a daughter before?

  For a while, Kesia who was lying there quietly but stirred Li Haojun's thoughts. Drinking a few large mouthfuls of water, cold and refreshing, seemed to dilute the stickiness of the thoughts. Cathia still showed no signs of waking up, so Li Haojun helped to drop her coat, loosened her corset belt, took off her socks, and covered her with a blanket. Thinking about the fact that she should also have underwear that needed to be changed in the past few days, but she didn't see it outside, she was an attentive girl.

  So only took her socks, a pair of pink cotton socks with a cartoon carriage embroidery pattern, cute. As she washed them in the washroom, she seemed to realize that it took her back to the lonely days of Kesia's old life, her sister with her younger sister, without any relatives, as if she was watching them grow up day after day, as if she could fill in some of the deficit of companionship.

  In the water rinse, socks on the foam of hand sanitizer gradually faded, the pair of soft socks, Li Haojun did not use his hands to wring out the water, he was afraid to give them too long and lose elasticity out of shape. So it is in the hands of the ball to and fro, clutching away the moisture, and then carry in the air to shake and then shake off some moisture, accidentally but thrown in front of the mirror. Li Haojun just wanted to use a towel to wipe, and then only in the mirror to see Kesia is behind, holding the door frame, looking at himself, expressionless.

  Foolishly, Li Haojun looked at the mirror Kathy revealed a silent smile, as if that is through time has long been waiting for the encounter.

  Gazing for a long time, Keyshia approached Li Haojun, he turned around and

  "Dad," only one word, already choked his throat, flung himself in Li Haojun's arms and

  Embracing her trembling body, gently caressing her hair, Li Haojun approached Kaixia's ear and softly called out.

  "Daughter."
