Chapter 5

"You can see how happy my sister is, and how well she's taken care of."

"...Isn't that his duty as a husband? Care? Can't I just hire a nanny!"

Zhen Fugui glared with frustration.

"Eat, old man!"

Unable to do anything else, Zhen Linna pulled out the ultimate move, grabbing some snacks from the table and stuffing them into her father's mouth.

Mmm!

Zhen Fugui, who had been annoyed, smiled as he ate the food his daughter fed him. His mood instantly brightened.

"See, I feed you like a nanny, old man, who are you eating for?"

Since she was young, Zhen Linna had known that when her father was angry, if she and her sister personally fed him, it would definitely calm him down. This was a skill even her mother didn't have.

"You... you're so full of nonsense. Your father does all this for you two sisters. Otherwise, why would I worry so much?"

Once fed by his daughter, Zhen Fugui's IQ dropped by 100, but his mood went up by 100.

This was how Zhen Linna resolved the family issue!

"You're the best, old man! I'm going to bed now."

After messing up her father's rhythm, Zhen Linna quickly made her exit.

"Go on, go on, rest early."

After his daughter left, Zhen Fugui slowly finished the food his daughter had fed him. His mood began to fall again, dropping from 100 to 90, then 80...

Sigh!

Zhen Fugui felt completely controlled. After all, this was why he lost his eldest daughter! He never expected it to be so difficult to change.

He was so distracted that he forgot about tomorrow's meeting with that annoying guy with yellow hair for fishing and had to arrange a talk between his daughter and Linaa.

Once he got to his room, he discussed things with his wife and confirmed the plan for Linna's situation. He also made arrangements for tomorrow's fishing trip.

Then, he sent a message to that annoying yellow-haired guy.

Why not just call? Because they never disturb their married daughter at night, not wanting to interrupt her and her husband.

Jia Fuhai had his head resting against his wife's not-so-obvious belly, gently massaging it with one hand.

Another day wasted.

Zhen Linqi sighed:

"Haige, isn't your body having issues? You're always restless."

"What do you think?"

Jia Fuhai patted his belly, which was slowly showing some abs despite never exercising.

...

Ding Ding~ Ding Ding~

As they were talking sweetly, they heard a phone notification sound.

"I'll check it."

Jia Fuhai immediately knew the message was from him and quickly picked up the phone. After reading the message, he said:

"Dad says I should go fishing tomorrow!"

He was a little confused. Why ask him to go fishing for no reason? He didn't know how to fish, but for some reason, he felt like he should wear a helmet.

"Then go, maybe your dad just wants to bond with you!"

Zhen Linqi had no objection. Sometimes she wanted her husband to go out more, after all, now at home, she only dared to wear thick clothes, worried she might stir up her husband's "Teddy" spirit.

"Okay! I really don't want to leave your side!"

Since 'growing up,' Jia Fuhai's sweet talk seemed to have naturally improved. Was it the male "awakening"?

Zhen Linqi raised her eyebrows (ー_ー).

Then, the two started their awkward, sour-tasting conversation, making anyone who heard it shiver with disgust.

The next day.

After Jia Fuhai prepared breakfast and ate with his wife, he left on his gifted manly pink car to go fishing.

On the way, he saw the police pulling over motorcyclists who weren't wearing helmets. When he saw the helmet, he suddenly felt itchy on his head, as if he should also wear a helmet.

At Zhen's home.

Zhen Fugui had just left, and Zhen Linna was about to sneak off to her sister's house but was stopped by her mother.

In the living room.

"Nana, can I talk to you about something?"

Chen Lina held her daughter's hand and sat on the sofa.

"Mom~ What is it?"

Zhen Linna leaned on her mother's shoulder and said in a sweet tone.

"...Nana, you've grown up." Chen Lina touched her daughter's face with a sigh.

Zhen Linna hugged her mother: "Mom, no matter how old I get, I'll always be your daughter."

"Good daughter~ Can you tell me if you have feelings for men, or is it just a simple attraction to women?" Chen Lina bluntly asked the question.

"Mom, you don't need to worry. No matter what, I'll always be your daughter!" Zhen Linna continued to act cute.

Chen Lina raised an eyebrow and pinched her daughter's face: "Changing the topic? I'm asking if you're into both men and women, or just women!"

"Probably... I'm not sure... Ahh, I don't know!" Zhen Linna kept avoiding the question.

Chen Lina thought about it for a moment. Her daughter had always been in a girls' school, and later attended a women's college, rarely interacting with men. At the women's college, relationships between women were more common, so maybe she was influenced, but it was hard to say for sure.

She had no idea that her daughter was the one influencing others.

After thinking for a bit, she considered whether it would be good to change her daughter's environment. After all, being in a women-only environment could distort one's orientation.

"Mom, I'm going to my sister's house."

Seeing her mother lost in thought, Zhen Linna quickly slipped out of the house and headed to her sister's place.

"Hey~ Hey!"

Chen Lina, lost in her thoughts, was distracted for a moment and could only watch her daughter slip away. She sighed quietly. Next year, her daughter would transfer out of the all-girls college, hoping that a change in environment would help her shift her orientation.
