Chapter 575 Love You, Just Say It Out (1)_1

"Pfft..."

Children’s play-fights are inevitable; she wasn’t really bothered, as long as it didn’t escalate to adults getting involved.

However, while she understood this, she knew it’s wrong for a child to be violent. She must have a serious talk with Cute when they get home.

"So, she’s finally afraid? If only she knew that from the start and didn’t cause any trouble. Little girl!"

"But... it seems Zuo Dajun didn’t come today. I didn’t hear any announcement about the Zuo Family, she must not have heard correctly."

Regardless, Gu Liancheng and Mayor Liang had reached an understanding. He was quite content where he was seated, and had no desire to go up front.

Done talking, Gu Liancheng pulled Cute around and asked seriously, "Cute, what trouble are you in again?"

Even Eleven noticed the deceit, how could he not?

Cute scratched her head and answered in a voice as soft as a mosquito’s: "None..."

"Jiujiu, you tell me."

Fang Jiujiu raised an eyebrow in his direction, "Do you take me for someone who would sell out others?"

"..." Gu Liancheng had no choice but to let that slide, "Cute, you’d better confess and be lenient. If I find out myself..."

"I only hit Zuo Dajun because he was bullying Jiujiu and I couldn’t stand it anymore, but then I got carried away and my fist accidentally ended up on his face and then he was so weak that he started bleeding when I barely touched him I swear I didn’t mean it, Mr. Gu, please forgive me I won’t do it again!"

Without taking a single breath, Cute finished explaining the whole situation. Afterward, she clasped her hands together, eyes wide with appeal, pleading for forgiveness.

Pfft...

Eleven was defeated by Cute’s charm attack, unable to suppress a laugh.

Is it really okay to be this cute?

Looking at her pitiful face, who could bear to scold her any further?

This girl really has stamina!

Gu Liancheng had to continue playing bad cop, struggling to suppress a laugh but maintaining a stern expression.

"Ahem," Gu Liancheng cleared his throat, "I’ll let you off now, but when we get home, you’ll be seriously reflecting on your actions and stay in the corner to think."

"Eleven..." Cute turned around and, using her charm, pleaded with Eleven for help.

"You indeed need to reflect."

When it came to educating children, Eleven was unyielding as well.

Not only because Cute was being brought up by Gu Liancheng, even if she wasn’t, she would never interfere when he was educating the kids as a father. Otherwise, it would give the kids a misconception that someone would always back them up when they do something wrong - this is not how you raise a child.

On this matter, they must strictly adhere to their roles and not interfere with each other’s parenting.

"But... but Zuo Dajun’s parents haven’t looked for you, so that means... it means Zuo Dajun isn’t angry with me!"

Fang Jiujiu shared some information with Eleven: "Zuo Dajun likes Cute, last time he gave me trouble because he thought I was trying to steal Cute away from him."

"You two are troublemakers, causing difficulties for the younger ones." Eleven said, ruffling his hair.

The talent show began. After several performances, it was Cute’s turn; she went backstage to prepare. Eleven asked Jiujiu, "Aren’t you going?"

"Nope," said Grandpa Jiǔ, looking cool with his arms crossed. "Childish."

"..." Eleven gave a helpless smile to Gu Liancheng, "Were you also such a loner when you were young?"

"Didn’t I tell you? I was a lively little cute sun when I was little, very sociable." He chuckled.

"Pssht, don’t believe!" A lively little sun? Cute?

Grandpa Jiǔ said: "Don’t believe."

"Alright, let’s watch the performance!"
