Huo Mien took off his jacket and hung it up. Then, he sat down on the sofa and leaned back.
"Baby, what is it?"
"My classmate's golden retriever gave birth to a baby. I want to adopt one."
"Wow, that's a good idea. I really like golden retrievers too …" Little Bean was overjoyed.
It was natural for children to like animals.
Unexpectedly, Huo Mien's face darkened. "No."
"Why, Mommy? Don't you like dogs too?"
"I like them, but they're not clean. They have parasites on them," Huo Mien said.
"They won't. We'll take good care of them. We'll give them regular injections, baths, and checkups. There won't be any bacteria."
"Don't say anymore. I won't agree to this. We can't have any cats or dogs at home in the future … I don't like them."
It was obvious that Huo Mien disliked small animals.
"Mommy, you used to like them a lot. You were the one who took care of the rabbits that Sis and I raised." Little Bean looked aggrieved.
"The past is the past. The present is the present … I have enough to worry about raising you two children at home. I don't have the time to raise a pet."
Huo Mien's words made the two children very unhappy.
But no one dared to disobey her.
Her grandparents had gone to a good friend's house and hadn't returned yet.
The servants didn't dare to interrupt. They all knew that the young madam had the final say at home.
"I'll ask Daddy about this. Maybe he'll agree."
Pudding seemed to be unhappy with Huo Mien's reaction. She didn't give up just because her mother said that she couldn't raise it.
Instead, she said that she would ask Daddy. This sentence completely infuriated Huo Mien.
"Pudding, stop right there."
Pudding didn't seem to hear him. She wanted to go upstairs to find Qin Chu.
Then, Huo Mien moved quickly and grabbed Pudding's collar.
With a fierce tug from behind, Pudding was easily dragged back.
He had to admit that this woman was very strong.
"I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me? Is this how you talk to Mommy?" Huo Mien glared at him.
Pudding didn't say anything. She just looked at the woman in front of her with dissatisfaction.
"You're not old, but you have quite a temper. Let me tell you, Pudding, you can't keep a dog. It's useless to ask your daddy. I have the final say in this matter …"
"What right do you have to be so domineering?"
"Because I'm your mother."
"My mother wouldn't be like you … You're not like my mother at all, you've become so scary … I don't like the current you, you're too selfish and cold."
Pudding's emotions, which she had been suppressing for days, suddenly burst out.
Many hurtful words were also blurted out.
Huo Mien went up and slapped Pudding hard on the face.
Perhaps it was because her fingernails were too long, they scratched Pudding's face and left a bloody mark.
Pudding covered her face in shock. Looking at the woman in front of her, she felt that she was both scary and unfamiliar.
Pudding was also scared out of her wits and the pastries in her hand fell to the ground.
Her mother hit her sister and even scratched her sister's face …
"Sis … your face … is … blood …" Pudding seemed to have lost the ability to speak.
Huo Mien seemed to feel that she had gone too far. She calmed down and gently coaxed Pudding.
"Mommy didn't want it to be like this, Pudding. You'll know in the future that Mommy did it for your own good. Small animals aren't as clean as you think … They'll infect you with a lot of diseases."
At this moment, Qin Chu came downstairs.
"Pudding, come here."
He said coldly …
Huo Mien, or Leila, looked up and saw Qin Chu's cold eyes. She became nervous.
