Endless Pampering Only For You

Chapter 342: She Wanted to Cancel The Engagement (4)

Mu Xiaoxiao’s hands halted for a moment. She had already told the flight crew not to inform her father about having to take sleeping pills in order to fall asleep. They shouldn’t have told him about that, right?

Perhaps Papa only knew about how she had slept throughout the flight.

Mu Xiaoxiao was slightly put at ease as she slid down towel down her face, her eyes turning as if she was in thought.

She had indeed eaten nothing for more than ten hours and was feeling hungry, but she had no appetite.

However, seeing her father’s worried expression, she still forced a smile and said, “Porridge then. I would like to have porridge.”

“What porridge would Baby like to have?”

“Anything is fine, as long as it is not seafood porridge. Just a simple porridge with pork and century eggs then.”

Mu Xiaoxiao said tepidly as she did not have any cravings but only needed to satisfy her hunger.

Mu Zhengbo then quickly sent instructions.

The kitchen made it in a very short time, perhaps because it had already been prepared beforehand. Mu Xiaoxiao was able to start eating the porridge not long after, and it filled her stomach. However, her heart still felt empty.

Mu Zhengbo sat beside to accompany her daughter without asking why she was hurt, only watching her with a loving gaze.

Mu Xiaoxiao did not have much of an appetite. After eating half the bowl, she was no longer hungry and didn’t want to continue eating.

She put down the spoon and said, “I’m full.”

Mu Zhengbo nodded. “it’s already late. You don’t have to eat too much.”

Mu Xiaoxiao snuggled up to her father and hugged his arm like a fawning little pet.

“Daddy, can I not return to China? I want to stay in America.”

Though China was her motherland, to her, it was also a place of grief.

With a drooping gaze, Mu Zhengbo stared down at her daughter’s face as he sighed and asked, “Can you tell Daddy if it was Shaojie who hurt your heart?”

With lips pursed tightly, Mu Xiaoxiao nodded.

Then, she sobbed and said, “Daddy… I don’t want to hear his name. Can you not mention him anymore? And, can you cancel my engagement with him? I don’t want to see him again.”

Mu Zhengbo did not reply immediately. Though he was very doting on Xiaoxiao to the extent of spoiling her that he wished that he could give her all of the good in the world and hoped that she would only have a happy and carefree life, one could not have an ostrich mentality and keep running away from problems.

He thought for a moment and said, “There must be some misunderstanding between you two, right? I chose Shaojie because I believed that he could protect you. If it is true that he can’t protect you, then the engagement is needless. However, to be fair, I think there is a need to clarify things. Otherwise, Shaojie is still innocent in this, don’t you think so?

Mu Xiaoxiao pouted unhappily.

What do you mean that he is innocent?

I’m the one who is broken-hearted!

He is the one who broke my heart!

However, Mu Xiaoxiao could not find a rebuttal to her father’s reasoning, and she had no choice but to nod her head.

“But, it’s your problem if you want to clarify things. I don’t care. In any case, I just don’t want to see him! If he comes, you can’t let him in.”

Mu Zhengbo smiled and nodded. “Alright, alright, alright. Of course, I can’t let him in. Whether it is a misunderstanding or not or whether he is wrong or not, he has hurt my baby’s heart, and that is the greatest wrong!”
