Chapter 144 – You Have To Do Something

“Yang Yi, you b*stard!” Yang Yi really deserved Mo Fei’s scolding. What he said was really too much!

Going back to more than ten minutes ago, Mo Fei was discussing the conditions of the kindergarten with Yang Yi. She was very satisfied with the teachers in one of the kindergartens, because all the teachers employed were all college students. Mo Fei thought that they could help Xixi learn more.

“Are degrees really that important?” Yang Yi asked suddenly.

This question has been on his mind for a long time, or rather his predecessor has been very concerned about it. Although these dull but happy days almost made him forget this, Mo Fei’s words have made the concealed crack surface again.

Mo Fei didn’t understand what Yang Yi was asking. She thought he was still talking about kindergarten. She smiled and said, “Of course, do you want a teacher who hasn’t read1to teach your daughter?”

“I don’t have a college degree. I didn’t even finish high school…” Yang Yi raised his head with some indifference in his eyes. “Am I not qualified to be Xixi’s father?”

Mo Fei was choked by Yang Yi’s words. She was stunned for a while before saying, “Why do you say that? Why do you say you are not qualified? What does this have to do with having a degree? You are Xixi’s father, her biological father!”

Mo Fei still couldn’t understand why Yang Yi’s tone suddenly becomes cold, but she has a feeling that her most precious thing was being questioned, and the grievances in her heart rose up spontaneously.

Biological father? Yang Yi frowned.

“Is that why you want to be with me, because I’m her biological father?” Yang Yi felt that since he was talking about this issue, he might as well open up and speak out all the doubts and worries in his heart.

Mo Fei looked at Yang Yi in shock.

Yang Yi, a guy who has never talked about love, really went on bluntly: “I read an article saying that when a girl is growing, fatherly love is very important.”

Properly speaking, this was an article that combines gossip and child growth. Taking a female singer’s tragic relationship in which, her privacy was leaked after a breakup with a scumbag, as an example. The article talked about the fact that girls who lacks fatherly love were more likely to encounter men who cheat on women’s feelings.

A father is the first member of the opposite sex that a daughter to come into contact with. If girls could get the care and love of their fathers from an early age, they would be able to deal with feelings easily when they grow up, and may even use their excellent fathers as a template to find a boyfriend.

But if they lack this important emotion from an early age and have not received fatherly love, then they will be excessively eager for and dependent on love. As long as others treat them better, they will be obedient to them.

Obviously, this was very dangerous!

Yang Yi read all the above from the article, and he naturally didn’t want Xixi to have the same tragedy as that female singer. So, Yang Yi has to do everything he has. He wanted to spoil her daughter and give her the best fatherly love in the world.

Now, however, the problem was not with Xixi, but his relationship with Mo Fei.

This question has entangled Yang Yi’s predecessor for a long time, and now Yang Yi also wanted to know the answer: Where did the relationship between him and Mo Fei come from? Is it true love? Or is it a “sacrifice” made by Mo Fei simply because she wants her daughter to have a father?

Therefore, Yang Yi asked bluntly, “Is it because you want to create a good environment for Xixi and give Xixi a complete home that you are willing to put aside your prejudices about my lack of education and put aside your contempt for me of not having any money, and pretended to be with me?”

This was really too much!

Yang Yi was completely standing on his point of view, showing his inner pride, questioning Mo Fei.

Mo Fei didn’t expect that Yang Yi would say this, which was almost an insult to her personality. Her inner grievance broke out and she couldn’t say speak at all. She just wanted to scold Yang Yi as a b*stard, and turned her head and ran back to the bedroom.

But the moment she turned her head, Mo Fei’s tears of grievance couldn’t help but burst out from the corners of her eyes.

“B*stard, big b*stard! I don’t want to talk to him anymore!”

…….

The atmosphere at home suddenly became strange. Mo Fei shut herself in her room, and Xixi sat timidly aside, hugging her Rem pillow. She was in no mood to play with the kittens and wasn’t interested in watching cartoons.

From time to time, the little girl would turn her head to look at her father. On her small face hung the word “sad”, showing a slight frown, just like Sister Lin2. But Xixi dared not disturb his father.

This kind of feeling was not pleasant at all…

This time, it was Yang Yi’s own thoughts that floated through his mind.

He felt inexplicably flustered and felt like he was going to lose Mo Fei. Although the knot had not been untied, Yang Yi regretted it.

Why bring it up? Is it good to be muddle-headed?3

The memories of these past days were constantly emerging…

“Hey, you’re back? What kind of flowers did you buy?” Mo Fei’s bright smile was like rippling water. Then, she rolled up her pants. Her legs were as white and smooth as lotus roots, and her feet were as exquisite and lovely as jade beads, as if complementing her brilliance…

“Let’s go ahead and ignore him! hehe~” This was during a walk on the dam after they had dinner in the evening. Mo Fei’s back was slender and graceful, and her hair fluttering in the wind was dyed a beautiful red in the afterglow of the setting sun.”

“If you want to practice your voice, first feel how my vocal cords vibrate.” During one morning, Mo Fei held his hand, picked out his index finger and asked Yang Yi to press it on her throat. Yang Yi forgot what she was doing and was just staring at Mo Fei. Her neck was thin, her skin was like snow, and her fingers were as smooth as jade.

But Mo Fei looked serious, as if she was bathed in holy light. Although Yang Yi could see the looming scenery under her exquisite collarbone, he dared not desecrate this sincerity…

“Was what I said a bit hurtful?” Yang Yi thought silently.

It was really… Now that he has calmed down, Yang Yi realized that he really hadn’t carefully thought what he said at that time.

“Pretending to be with me…”

“Is that why you want to be with me, because I’m her biological father?”

No matter if what was said was right or not, these words should not be said, it hurts people’s self-esteem!

“What exactly do you want?” Yang Yi asked himself a question, a question he hadn’t thought carefully about.

Do you want Mo Fei to admit that she is as “mean” as Yang Yi thought, and then force Mo Fei away?4

Of course not. Yang Yi liked the feeling of being with Mo Fei very much, especially these days of contact. He found that they have more and more in common, and they have more and more happiness. How could he bear Mo Fei to leave?

But why do you say that?

Could Mo Fei still back down?5

Perhaps he wanted Mo Fei to say that it wasn’t his fault, and then the two could be together without any bitterness.

But how could Mo Fei not care about the words that he said? How could she not be sad? Even if her grievances were resolved, perhaps it had already left a crack in her heart?

Yang Yi really regretted it…

When the image of Mo Fei, with tears in her eyes, leaving him forever appeared in his mind, Yang Yi felt like his heart was being pierced by a knife.

“You have to do something!” Yang Yi said to himself in her heart.
