Chapter 131 Peach (5)
7 p.m.
A hotpot restaurant located on the sixth floor of a shopping mall.
Chen Tao, Qiao Yingzi, and Huang Zhitao sat near the window, each with a small pot in front of them.
"Yesterday was Christmas Eve. Dad, were you with Sister Lin?"
Qiao Yingzi asked with a natural expression.
Naturally... it's as if she didn't witness the scene last night where her father and Tao Zi kissed passionately for a long time.
"No."
Chen Tao smiled and shook his head: "Sister Lin gave me a surprise today last year. But it also made me mentally prepared, so she felt that this year was boring and was too lazy to accompany me!"
surprise?
Qiao Yingzi complained in her heart: Sister Lin didn't give you a surprise last night, but you gave her a big surprise... What a scumbag, this stinky dad!
Huang Zhitao thought shyly:
Sister Lin didn’t give any surprises this year, but I did...
Qiao Yingzi asked again: "After leaving the company yesterday, did you just go home and watch TV alone?"
Huang Zhitao thought that his uncle would admit it, but unexpectedly, he shook his head and denied it:
"No...last night, I went to meet a very important person."
The lights in the restaurant are a bit dim.
Qiao Yingzi couldn't see clearly the blush on Huang Zhitao's face, but she could feel that in the way Tao Zi looked at her father, there was an emotion that made her scalp tingle.
This emotion is so subtle yet strong, full of endless heat, as if it can melt thousands of years of icebergs...
Qiao Yingzi couldn't bear it. After taking a sip of juice, she stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
But when she walked around the corner, she paused and stuck her head out to peek at her dad and best friend... Just like she peeked at her dad and Sister Lin back then.
"Uncle, eat more"
Huang Zhitao picked up a piece of fat beef and was about to hand it to Chen Tao's plate, but the smelly uncle opened his mouth and asked her to feed it himself.
The cute Tao Zi didn't refuse, she blushed and dipped some of the sauce she made, then fed it directly to the smelly uncle's mouth.
Under Qiao Yingzi's "subway old man looking at his cell phone" look of disdain, Chen Tao accepted Tao Zi's feeding service calmly.
Then, he returned the courtesy, scooped up a shrimp slippery piece with a spoon, and handed it to Tao Zi's lips.
Tao Zi was a little embarrassed, but in the end he couldn't defeat his uncle.
Qiao Yingzi really couldn't stand it anymore. She felt that she was just a light bulb and she shouldn't accompany the two of them out.
Wouldn't it be nice to rest in the dormitory and rewatch the bloody movies starring the stinky dad?
Why did you come out to eat his and Tao Zi's strange dog food?
Two minutes later, Qiao Yingzi, who washed her hands and calmed down at the same time, returned to her seat.
And her father and Tao Zi also returned to their serious appearances.
It was as if what she had just seen was just an illusion.
***
It's Christmas today, although it's still a working day, but there are a lot of people at this late hour.
Especially the major luxury stores in the shopping mall were packed to capacity.
As mentioned before, many holidays can be celebrated as Valentine's Day, and tonight is no exception.
Pairs of young men and women lined up outside the store, chatting and laughing, creating a happy scene.
Chen Tao doesn't like queuing, and Qiao Yingzi and Huang Zhitao have to go back to school, so naturally they can't waste time.
So after discussion, Chen Tao sent them back to school.
Shortly after getting off the car in the parking lot, Qiao Yingzi received a call. After a few hums, she said to Chen Tao:
"Dad, there's something going on in my dormitory, please take the first step."
After saying that, she quickly left without waiting for the two of them to react... Of course the dormitory was fine, she just didn't want to disturb them.
"Uncle"
Huang Zhitao called out lowly.
After Yingzi's figure disappeared, she was surprised to find that her hand had been held by her uncle.
What should happen next...
Chen Tao did not mess around as Huang Zhitao thought, but asked her to face him, and then took out two pieces of jewelry.
One is a pendant and the other is a bracelet.
They are all made of gold and carnelian gemstones in the shape of a four-leaf clover.
Chen Tao smiled and said, "I guessed that there would be a lot of people at night, so I bought you a gift in advance... Come, I'll put it on for you."
Huang Zhitao refused in a low voice: "This is too expensive, I can't have it."
"These things are worthless compared to you."
With that said, Chen Tao put on the pendant and bracelet for her.
Many people think that black onyx gemstones are more beautiful, but Chen Tao feels that carnelian gemstones complement Huang Zhitao's fair skin better.
"Zhitao, you are so beautiful"
Chen Tao looked at it for a few times and praised it from the bottom of his heart.
Who is more beautiful, me or Sister Lin?
Huang Zhitao thought this, but did not really ask the question about death. She lowered her head and whispered:
"Uncle, I can't give you a corresponding gift now..."
"Return gift?" Chen Tao smiled and pointed to the side of his face: "I already received the best gift last night. Of course, it would be better if I could receive it again."
Huang Zhitao blushed and said nothing.
How could she have the courage to take the initiative again?
Fortunately, although she didn't have any, Chen Tao had many.
"Why is Yingzi back again?"
Chen Tao said in surprise.
Huang Zhitao raised his head when he heard this.
Chen Tao didn't talk about martial arts and took the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
Huang Zhitao was stunned for a moment, then responded enthusiastically.
Obviously it shouldn't be like this, but her feelings for her uncle have really "deteriorated".
When did you start to have a crush on your uncle?
Let him hide in his closet? Did he see those clothes? Or at some other time?
Tao Zi couldn't tell clearly. She only knew that she, like Sister Lin, was really fascinated by this smelly uncle.
five minutes later.
"Hoo"
Although the "greedy" uncle had been let go, Tao Zi still hugged him, buried her face in his arms, and breathed softly.
It wasn't that she was embarrassed to meet people, but because the smelly uncle's embrace was so warm that she couldn't bear to leave.
Chen Tao hugged Tao Zi and smelled the fragrance on her body that was different from Miss Lin's, and felt satisfied in his heart.
In fact, this girl's voluntary confession last night was not what he expected, and he was also surprised.
But despite being surprised, he still seized the opportunity.
What reason does he, a scumbag, have to dislike Tao Zi? She is beautiful, smart, considerate, and has countless beautiful qualities and shining points...
As for Miss Lin, he will naturally not give up.
Because that lovely woman has become a part of his heart that can never be let go.
"Don't go back to the dormitory tonight, okay?"
Chen Tao felt something coming and whispered in Tao Zi's ear.
"No, I have class tomorrow."
Tao Zi refused at first, then couldn't help laughing and said:
"I will go home on weekends. If you don't have to accompany Sister Lin or Wang Yidi, then come and find me"
"Didi?"
Chen Tao also smiled and said, "Didi and I have nothing to do with each other."
Huang Zhitao snorted: "I don't believe it!"
