Xiaochen opened his eyes wide, thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "Uncle, you are really too much. You must have ruined the sweater!"
"So what?!"
"You are really too much!!!" Xiaochen emphasized again, his big eyes full of contempt.
Gu Xijue narrowed his eyes and looked at her. The little girl looked fearless. He was really impressed by her temperament at such a young age!
There was a slight noise at the door, and Xiaochen ran over quickly, "Mommy is back!"
Xi Haitang pushed the door open carrying the vegetables and meat he had just bought from the market. He was stunned when he saw Gu Xijue, and his whole body was immediately on high alert, "Why are you here?!"
"I'm here to help repair the water pipes in your house!" Gu Xijue said angrily. He, who has always been a germophobe, found it very unbearable to be in this embarrassing state, so his tone naturally couldn't get better.
Xi Haitang was confused, and Xiaochen quickly explained, "Mommy, the water pipe at home was broken just now, and water kept leaking out. Thanks to Uncle Knight, he came here for an ulterior purpose!"
Due to Xiaochen's presence, Xi Haitang restrained his emotions slightly and asked him, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for you to mend the sweater." Gu Xijue handed over the sweater with a slight regret on his expression, "Yunhen is very sad at home, can you fix it quickly?"
Xi Haitang was silent for a moment. Although he was hateful, Yunhen was innocent. Besides, Xiaochen was also present. She couldn't quarrel with her classmate's father in front of her daughter. She paused and nodded, "Okay."
"how much time is required?"
"Two or three hours" Xi Haitang was also helpless. The stitching method of this sweater was very special. It was a new pattern she learned. It was much more difficult than ordinary knitting methods and naturally required more time.
Gu Xijue looked at his watch and felt a little embarrassed. Should he wait here forever? I wonder how Yunhen was doing at home? Thinking of his son saying he hated him, his heart tightened again.
Xi Haitang was slightly surprised. In her opinion, Gu Xijue was a heinous villain, but he actually showed such a helpless and sad expression. It was incredible!
Xiaochen looked at the two adults, with confusion on his face, "Mommy, do you want to mend your sweater first, or cook first?"
Xi Haitang suddenly realized, Oh my God, it’s already half past five and dinner hasn’t been cooked yet!
"Xiaochen, you're hungry, do you want to eat something to cushion your stomach?"
"I'm not very hungry yet, but I won't be very hungry in two or three hours."
Xi Haitang looked at Gu Xijue and said in a distant tone, "I have to mend my sweater after dinner. You can pick it up later."
"No." Gu Xijue shook his head intuitively. If he went home empty-handed, I'm afraid Yunhen would never forgive him in his life, just like he didn't forgive his father back then.
He was feeling depressed when the cell phone in his pocket vibrated rapidly. He took it out and saw that it was the number of his home phone, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
The caller was the housekeeper Mrs. Zhou, "Sir, please come back quickly, the young master..."
