Breakfast was served one after another. Bread, oranges, avocados, bacon, fried eggs … It was very sumptuous.
When the grandfather clock in the living room hit 8: 30 AM, Chi Jiao appeared in the dining room on time.
"Good morning, Daddy." Chi Jiao directly ignored Zhu Limin and her sons.
Chi Mingwei, who was reading the morning paper, put down the newspaper in his hand and smiled at her. "Jiaojiao, come and have breakfast. Daddy has a present for you later."
He didn't care that Chi Jiao didn't greet Zhu Limin and the rest.
In his opinion, Jiaojiao had just returned to this big family and needed to adapt to everything.
Zhu Limin's expression was a little unnatural. Chi Jiao's disregard for her as a stepmother was becoming more and more obvious.
Chi Jiao smiled obediently at him and walked to a seat further away from Chi Yan and Zhu Limin. The maid poured her a cup of warm milk.
Chi Mingwei looked at her petite face and suddenly realized a problem. "Jiaojiao, why is your face so pale? Are you feeling unwell again? "
The others in the dining room immediately shifted their gazes to her.
"I didn't sleep well last night, so my head hurts a little. It's fine." Chi Jiao lowered her eyes.
"Is it because you've never slept in such a comfortable bed before that you're so happy that you can't sleep?" Chi Ze looked at her provocatively.
"Shut up." Zhu Limin hurriedly glanced at Chi Mingwei's expression, then picked up a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth to prevent him from saying anything that would make Chi Mingwei unhappy.
When they went out together yesterday, Chi Mingwei had already expressed his guilt towards Chi Jiao to her.
As Chi Jiao's father, he had never fulfilled his duty as a father in the past seventeen years.
As a perfect wife and mother, Zhu Limin naturally had to comfort Chi Mingwei and promise to make it up to Chi Jiao with him.
Chi Yan felt that Chi Ze was right, but she couldn't be bothered to clash with Chi Jiao on the surface. She only looked at her mockingly before lowering her head to eat her breakfast.
Chi Mingwei also glared at Chi Ze warningly. Then, he chuckled and said to Chi Jiao, "Jiaojiao, Little Ze has been spoiled by your auntie. Don't listen to his nonsense."
Chi Jiao nodded obediently and took a sip of the milk.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a slender figure passing by the table.
The young man was dressed in black, with his hands in his pockets and earphones in his ears. He walked past the entrance of the restaurant without looking sideways.
"Brother. Chi Jiao immediately put down the cup in her hand and picked up the sandwich in front of her. Like a happy sparrow, she ran towards Quan Jue.
Patter!
The chopsticks in Chi Mingwei's hand fell on the table as he widened his eyes at Chi Jiao.
His daughter had never treated him so warmly before.
When the others saw this scene, they all had different expressions.
Zhu Limin was stunned for a moment before she smiled.
Interesting.
A lowly adopted son was matched with a girl who grew up in a mountain village.
…
Quan Jue suddenly stopped in his tracks, his pitch-black eyes reflecting the girl in front of him.
The little girl in front of him seemed to have forgotten about yesterday's unhappiness. There was a sweet and clear smile on her little face, and her eyes were as bright and clear as glass beads.
"This is for you. It's not good to skip breakfast." Chi Jiao handed Sanming to him.
She remembered that Quan Jue didn't have the habit of eating breakfast, and he had low blood sugar.
