Chapter 265: Educating the Child
“Did our family’s child do something wrong?” Quan Yu’s voice exploded in the hall. Everyone turned to Quan Yu. This is the child of the Quan Family? But isn’t Young Master Quan single?
After he apologized, Rou Rou staggered backwards and then turned to hug Mo Li. He looked so scared and frightened.
Jiang Yao wiped the boy’s hands with a wet towel. She turned to Xiao Ming apologetically. “Yue Yue, I apologize for the child. Please don’t be mad at him. Auntie will compensate you a new dress.”
Ah Zhong felt guilty. He didn’t expect Rou Rou to be so naughty. Rou Rou was normally such an obedient child. Rou Rou only acted like this when he was around Mo Li…
“Rou Rou, tell daddy what did you do to make Miss Xiao so angry?” Quan Yu asked Rou Rou in Mo Li’s arms softly as he patted the child on his back. The guests gasped in a cold breath when they heard that.
Even Xiao Yue was shocked. Didn’t they say this man is clean? Where did this son come from?
The way Rou Rou hung onto Mo Li also placed ideas in the guests’ mind.
“No way, but I did hear that Miss Mo and Young Master Quan share an unusual relationship!”
“Then again, they do look perfect for each other.”
“But isn’t Mo Li underage? The boy looks at least 4 already.”
“Shush… They’re powerful enough to do anything they want.”
The whispering caused Mo Yun’s face to darken. He stood beside Mo Li and said, “Rou Rou, why don’t you go to your father?”
Rou Rou shook his little head. “Rou Rou wants to stay with pretty sister and pretty auntie.” Hearing that, the guests realized that this was misunderstanding. The boy merely liked Mo Li and Jiang Yao.
“So Rou Rou, what did happen earlier?” Quan Yu turned to Mo Li and the latter shook her head. When she arrived, Rou Rou was already quite frightened.
Xiao Yue turned to Quan Yu. She had a bad feeling so she quickly said, “Brother Yu, this is a misunderstanding. The boy suddenly crawled out from under my dress, he frightened me so I yelped.”
Quan Yu didn’t even look at Xiao Yue. He wanted to hear from Rou Rou what really happened.
“Rou Rou, you’re a boy. How can you crawl under a girl’s dress?” Mo Li turned to the child. This was a question of morality. Rou Rou was in the wrong and he needed to know that.
“Rou Rou didn’t know that was a dress. It is so puffy. Rou Rou has not seen a dress like that before. I just wanted to take a look at it. But Rou Rou knows his mistake now and will not do that again.” Rou Rou whispered his apology. He was sorry.
“In that case, let the party continues!” Xiao Yue realized that this would only reflect badly on her so she quickly changed the subject.
“Did anything else happen, Rou Rou?” Quan Yu though pressed.
“Rou Rou used his hands to grab the big sister’s dress…”
As the boy’s voice became softer, Quan Yu’s face turned darker. He turned to look at Xiao Yue’s dress, there was indeed a small handprint.
Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Yue and felt she was being too narrow-minded. She shouldn’t have yelled at a child because of something like this. To make matters worse, the child she yelled at was extremely close to the Quan Family. Xiao Ming could see the good relationship the Xiao Family might share with the Quan Family go up in smokes.
“Brother Yu…” Xiao Yao wanted to defend herself but Quan Yu’s dark face caused the words to get stuck in her throat.
Ah Zhong was Quan Yu’s close brother. He was extremely loyal to Quan Yu. When he served Quan Yu, he met a foreign girl who also worked for the Quan Family. They got married and then had Rou Rou.
However, during one of the missions, Rou Rou’s mother’s team was caught in an ambush. Rou Rou’s mother held back the enemy on her own so that her teammates could escape. She was shot to her death.
Therefore, Rou Rou was brought up by a group of men. Everyone in the family was Rou Rou’s fathers. They cared deeply about the boy. Since Rou Rou had no mother, they would shower him with extra love.
Xiao Yue and Mrs. Xiao didn’t expect something like this. They were stunned.
It was Jiang Yao who came to their rescue. “Today is a day of celebration, let’s not ruin it over a small accident. Rou Rou, how about you sing us a song and then we can dance together?”
The child’s attention was quickly diverted. He sang a children’s song and the mood lightened.
