Chapter 376

In the small and simple living room, two people were sitting face to face on two sofas. Oh, it should be said that it was a young man in his twenties and a two-year-old girl. The two of them crossed their arms and looked at each other without saying a word. There was no expression on their faces.

The little girl was wearing a lace dress with her brown hair neatly combed at the back of her head. She wore a pair of dark-colored round-toed leather shoes under her white velvet stockings. She looked particularly cute, but she pouted and looked at the young man angrily, seemingly unhappy. On the other hand, the young man who was sitting upright had a faint smile on his face, clearly telling the little fellow that he was teasing her.

After staring at each other for a long time, the little girl finally could not help but jump off the sofa. She grabbed the Winnie the Pooh beside her and swayed to the young man's side before throwing it at him in exasperation.

"Hey, this is not what a lady should do, Emma!" The young man pretended to dodge her attack.

However, the little fellow turned a deaf ear to him. She grabbed the doll in her hand and kept throwing it at him. Although her strength was not high enough and most of the attacks could not reach him, she still persistently repeated her actions. If the Winnie the Pooh in her hand could have its own thoughts, it would probably have cried by now.

What a child. Adriaan could not help but sigh in his heart. When Ms. Rodelin opened the door, Emma, who was in the living room, opened her arms in surprise and wanted to rush over. However, she stopped after a few steps. Finally, she raised her head and snorted with her nose in the air. Then, she turned back to the sofa and sat down with her arms crossed, looking like she was waiting for him to apologize.

Children were like this. They did things according to their mood, but their mood changed faster than anyone else. They were more difficult to understand than women. Therefore, Adriaan simply crossed his arms and sat opposite her without saying a word.

However, he still did not expect her to have such a big grievance. She actually took the doll and hit him. It really made him not know whether to laugh or cry. After pretending to dodge a few more times, Adriaan suddenly tilted his body and fell down. His head hit the armrest of the sofa lightly, then he hugged his head and cried out, "Ah, it hurts!"

The little girl suddenly stopped at a loss. After being stunned for two seconds, she hurriedly climbed onto the other person's sofa and got into Adriaan's arms. While reaching out to check the "wound", she stammered and apologized, "I-I'm sorry, I didn't … I didn't … I didn't mean … on purpose … on purpose …"

Adriaan originally wanted to tease her, but when he saw the little girl's anxious and pitiful look, he gave up the idea. He turned over and hugged her, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"Really?" Emma finally stopped what she was doing. After looking at Adrian carefully, the worry on her face faded a lot. But after blinking her eyes, she became a little doubtful again. "Really?"

Adriaan couldn't help but praise her in his heart. He then rubbed his head to make it seem like he didn't care about the pain, "Really, it's over in a moment. It doesn't hurt anymore." Adrian couldn't help but praise in his heart. He then rubbed his head to make himself look like he didn't care about the pain. "Really, it's over in a moment. It doesn't hurt anymore."

Emma immediately lowered her head and said embarrassedly. She then rubbed her head to make it seem like she didn't care about the pain, "Really, it's over in a moment. It doesn't hurt anymore." Emma immediately lowered her head and said embarrassedly. Her hands were a little entangled. God knows how the poor Winnie was ravaged.

"It's okay, I know. I haven't seen you for a few months, and you're very unhappy. I should apologize to you." Adriaan hugged her in his arms and comforted her. Although it wasn't his fault, a child would not be reasonable.

"Five months!" Speaking of this, Luv Ma became indignant again. In order to increase her persuasiveness, she even pouted and wagged her five little fingers. Her soft and tender tone was very comfortable to listen to.

"Okay, okay, then how should I make it up to you?" Adriaan couldn't help but pinch her face.

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a long time. Then, she gave an answer that made him want to vomit blood, "I don't know!"

Adriaan couldn't help but roll his eyes. Suddenly, he reached his hand under Emma's armpit and tickled her. The little girl screamed and struggled, trying to escape from Adriaan's hands. Adriaan, who was already prepared, wouldn't let her succeed. He immediately hugged her in his arms and teased her. The little girl had no choice but to curl into a ball and laugh excitedly.

"Are you guys done negotiating?" Emma's aunt, Ms. Rodelin, appeared in the living room with a fruit platter. She looked at the two who were playing and shook her head with a smile.

"Eide, aren't you a little …" She put down the fruit platter and reminded him softly.

"It's okay, as long as Emma is happy." Adriaan, who stopped what he was doing, waved his hand nonchalantly. Then, he carried the little girl and put her on the sofa, "Do you like this, Emma?"

"I like it!" The cheerful little girl waved her arms. Her face was flushed because of the previous play. She was so cute.

Rodelin shrugged helplessly. The doorbell rang at this moment. It turned out that Rodelin's husband, the little girl's uncle, Adam Goldberg, had returned.

"Hi, Eide!" After kissing his wife, he greeted Adriaan.

"Hi, Adam!" Adriaan then waved his hand.

"You're finally here. If you delay any longer, I'm afraid Emma will run away from home." Adam sat down and said jokingly.

"I can imagine it. You know, she just beat me up with Winnie the Pooh!" Adriaan said somewhat exaggeratedly. Then, he picked up the doll that was thrown aside and shook his head, "Poor Winnie!"

Adam couldn't help but laugh. Although Emma didn't quite understand, it didn't stop her from noticing the ridicule in his tone. She immediately reached out and snatched Winnie from Adriaan's hands, then made a big face.

This cute action made the three people present laugh. Then, Adam said, "Are you going to stay in London for a while? You can stay in our house. Anyway, the guest room is always empty. "

"Can I?" Adriaan was a little hesitant.

"Of course, I think this must be Emma's wish." Adam said as he looked at the little girl who was still sitting in Adriaan's arms, "Emma, do you want Eide to stay in our house?"

Emma blinked her eyes, then reached out and grabbed Adriaan's shoulder with a cheer, "I want to hear a story! I want to sleep with him! "

Adriaan sighed helplessly and pinched the little girl's cheek, "It seems that I have no choice."

"Then it's settled." Adam laughed, "By the way, the newspaper said that you won the Palme d 'Or. Is that true?"

Just like that, Adriaan stayed at Emma's aunt and uncle's house. Just like last summer, he had nothing else to do but accompany Emma every day. In fact, this wasn't bad. He could just treat it as a vacation. He didn't have to think too much about it.

Although the entertainment media had been reporting about the Palme d 'Or breaking the record, directors were different from actors. People might talk about which star was handsome or beautiful, but they rarely remembered the director's appearance, even if it was a famous director like Truffaut or Spielberg.

Moreover, Rodelin and Rodelin kept their mouths shut, so he could openly go shopping with Emma. Of course, it was necessary to dress up a little. After all, England was the birthplace of the paparazzi. Although the most arrogant of those guys had yet to come, it was always good to be careful. If they were recognized, it would be troublesome.

Emma was very happy about his arrival. She was basically by his side 24/7. Although she was already more than two years old, some things hadn't changed. Sometimes it was even stronger. Perhaps it was because Adriaan wasn't by her side all the time? Who knew! Adriaan didn't dislike it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have specially come to London to see her. Of course, if she didn't have to share the same bed with him every night and love to use his arm as a pillow, he would be very grateful. For several days in a row, his arm would be numb when he woke up every morning. It wasn't a happy experience.

After a week, because Adriaan couldn't be found, and Bosworth Pictures refused to disclose his whereabouts, plus the award-winning "Pulp Fiction" would be released for a while, the enthusiasm of the media for the youngest Palme d 'Or winner gradually faded. So Adriaan, who estimated that the news had fully fermented, began to prepare for another important matter in London. Moreover, he suddenly felt that if he brought Emma along, there might be unexpected effects.

"I suggest that you better sit in your seat, Miss Emma Watson!" Glancing at the passenger seat, Adriaan said with annoyance.

The little girl, who was leaning on the window and observing the street outside, breathed on the window, and then began to draw, then turned around and giggled at him.

Adriaan sighed and raised his voice, "Emma!"

"Got it!" Emma stuck out her tongue and sat in her seat. However, this state only lasted for a few minutes. She began to look around again, touching here and there.

Sighing again, Adriaan shrugged his shoulders, turned the steering wheel, and continued to maintain a turtle speed of 15 miles per hour. Generally speaking, the passenger seat was the most dangerous position in the car. If something happened, even an adult could be easily injured, let alone a child. But Emma insisted on sitting next to him. If it weren't for the need to drive, Adriaan suspected that she would have asked to sit in his arms. After several failed attempts, he had to let her stay in the passenger seat.

Fortunately, the rented car had a child safety seat, which made Adriaan feel relieved. But looking at Emma's lively appearance, he slowed down the speed to the minimum just in case.

It's okay, I believe the lady will understand. Adriaan comforted himself in his heart. However, after turning a corner, although the destination was already in sight, he still drove for almost ten minutes before stopping on the side of the street.

He got out of the car and carried the little girl out. After repeatedly telling her to behave, Adriaan went to the door of the apartment he was looking for and rang the doorbell.
