Breakfast was served one by one. Bread, oranges, avocados, bacon, fried eggs.
Chi Jiao appeared in time in the dining room at 08:30.
“August, Father.” Chi Jiao ignored Zhu Limin and his children.
Chi Mingwei, who was reading the morning newspaper, put it down and smiled at him. “Jiaojiao, come and have breakfast. Dad got a present for you later.”
He did not seem to mind that Chi Jiao did not greet the others.
In his opinion, Jiaojiao had just returned to this big family, so he needed some time to adapt to everything.
However, Zhu Limin looked uncomfortable. Chi Jiao's disregard for her as her stepmother became increasingly apparent.
Chi Jiao gave Chi Mingwei an obedient smile and walked to a chair a bit away from Chi Yan and Zhu Limin. The waiter poured her a cup of warm milk.
Seeing Chi Jiao's petite face, Chi Mingwei suddenly realized something was wrong. “Jiaojiao, why are you so pale? Are you feeling unwell again?”
The other people in the dining room immediately turned their eyes on him.
“I couldn't sleep well last night, so my head hurt a little. It's okay.” Chi Jiao lowered her eyes.
“Is it because you have never slept in such a comfortable bed before, that's why you are too happy to fall asleep?” Chi Ze looked at Chi Jiao provocatively.
“Diam.” Zhu Limin quickly glanced at Chi Mingwei's expression before stuffing a piece of bread into Chi Ze's mouth to prevent her from saying anything that would make her husband unhappy.
When they left together yesterday, Chi Mingwei had declared her mistake to Chi Jiao to him.
As Chi Jiao's father, he had never fulfilled his duty as a father in the past 17 years.
As the perfect wife and loving mother, Zhu Limin naturally had to comfort Chi Mingwei and promised to make up for it with Chi Jiao.
Chi Yan felt that Chi Ze was right, but he did not want to engage in an open conflict with Chi Jiao. He only gave Chi Jiao a mocking look before lowering his head to eat his breakfast.
Chi Jiao nodded obediently and took a sip of milk.
From the corner of his eyes, he happened to see a slender figure pass through the dining table.
The young man was dressed in black. His hands were put into his pockets and earphones in his ears as he walked through the entrance of the dining room without even glancing at them.
“Sister male.” Chi Jiao immediately put down the cup in her hand, picked up the sandwich in front of her, and ran towards Quan Jue like a happy sparrow.
Cocktail!
The chopsticks in Chi Mingwei's hand fell onto the table as she stared at him with widened eyes.
Her daughter had never treated her so enthusiastically before.
When the others saw this scene, they all harbored different expressions.
Zhu Limin was stunned for a moment before smiling.
Attractively.
A despicable foster child is paired with a girl growing up in the mountains.
Quan Jue suddenly stopped in his tracks. His pitch-black pupils reflected the young lady standing in front of him.
The little girl in front of him seemed to have forgotten their unpleasant interaction yesterday. On her pink face, like dumplings hung a sweet smile, and her eyes were as bright and as clear as glass beads.
“This is for you. It is not good to miss breakfast.” Chi Jiao handed her the sandwich.
He recalled that Quan Jue had no breakfast habit and was suffering from low blood sugar.
This was a bad habit that he had to slowly improve for her.
