Master Head of the Dragon Soul novel Chapter 43

A flash of coldness appeared in Chu Feng’s eyes; as expected, it had something to do with the Yun family. Did these people really have a death wish, the way they were still coming after his woman? A plan formed in his mind, but on the outside he betrayed no emotion as he replied, “Alright.”

Yun Muqing breathed a sigh of relief, then stooped down to console a pitiful Duo Duo. “I’m sorry, Duo Duo. I have something to take care of at the last minute, so I can’t send you to school today.”

“B-But today’s my first day both Mommy and Daddy can send me to school...” The girl’s eyes misted up with tears, and it was a pitiful sight.

“Don’t cry. I’ll, uh, give you another five hundred as our extra allowance. Please forgive me, alright? Just this once.” Yun Muqing hastily consoled her, her expression filled with guilt.

“Alright, then. Bye, Mommy. I’ll miss you.” Duo Duo waved her tiny hand and pouted, as if she might burst into tears at any moment. Yun Muqing was nearly heartbroken, and turned to look at her many times before she finally left.

Chu Feng also felt touched watching them and patted Duo Duo’s shoulder in consolation. Truly, she was like a little blanket that warmed the heart and touched the soul, but just when Chu Feng had planned to console her—

“Yay, she’s gone at last!” Duo Duo jumped up with joy, dancing around while waving the red banknotes in her hand and exclaimed, “Daddy, now that I have the money, why don’t we get some snacks and ice cream?” She was showing no sign of sadness at all.

“Huh??” What kind of blanket was she? The type filled with ‘black-hearted wool’? “Duo Duo, I thought you were very sad to see Mommy go?”

“You’re so immature, Daddy.” Duo Duo pursed her lips with a look of disdain. “If I don’t pull this trick and guilt Mommy into loving me, then how will she give me my allowance? How will we get ice cream?”

The moment school was mentioned, Duo Duo became dejected and unmotivated. “But I don’t want to go to school. I want to play with you.” She took Chu Feng’s hand and pouted pitifully. “Daddy, can’t we rest for just one day? Mommy will never know. Mommy makes me go to school every day, and I still have to go for piano, dance, calligraphy and art classes on the weekends. Poor me...”

Chu Feng felt both resigned and amused, because he’d been the victim of her ‘playing cute’ trick. If it weren’t for the fact that he’d literally just witnessed Duo Duo pulling this trick on Yun Muqing, he’d have fallen for it again. “Duo Duo, it’s wrong to skip classes. That’s not what a good kid would do,” Chu Feng stooped down and explained patiently.

He loved his precious daughter, but he’d never spoil her; a detrimental love like this was not love at all. “Do you want Daddy and Mommy and your teacher to see you as a bad kid?”

“No.”
