For the "parents" mentioned by the child, he automatically assumed the role of adoptive parents.
"good!"
Yuanyuan nodded happily to him, knowing that her father would not do anything to her.
"What were your previous parents' names?"
Lu Zheng picked her up and walked towards home, hoping to investigate this aspect and maybe get some clues.
If he were to find out who was abusing the child, he would definitely not let him go.
It's a pity that Yuanyuan can't remember clearly. She instinctively wants to avoid bad memories and doesn't want to remember them in her mind.
Lu Zheng also noticed that she didn't want to talk, so he didn't continue to ask further.
"What did you do today?"
He changed the topic to a more pleasant topic and wanted to know how Li Yan managed to get the child close to him.
"I watched cartoons with my godfather and ate delicious food..."
Yuanyuan sat on his arm, counting down what she had done today.
Seeing the little guy's energetic expression, Lu Zheng felt sour in his heart for some reason.
"You're pretty good at calling me godfather. Why don't you call me daddy?"
Come to think of it, she has never called herself that.
"You won't let me call you daddy."
Yuanyuan's head rested on his shoulder, and he looked unhappy when he called for the first time.
"The words I said last time don't count, you are shouting now!"
He didn't know it last time, but now that he knows it, he won't reject it and has a little expectation.
"dad!"
Yuanyuan shouted very simply, looking up into his eyes, feeling a little sweet in her heart.
Dad is now willing to accept himself.
"Scream again!"
"dad!"
Listening to the child's soft voice, Lu Zheng felt for the first time that being a father was a good thing.
007 looked at the sudden surge in favorability and excitedly informed the host: "The favorability has risen to 50%. The host will continue to work hard."
007, who originally didn't have high hopes, is now as full of fighting spirit as if he had been given a shot of blood.
Family affection is different from love, it is an innate bond.
There is still a lot of vegetables left from the food he bought yesterday, and Lu Zheng plans to try making it again.
Stir-frying was not an option, so he decided to make porridge, wash out the rice, add water to the corresponding level, and just press the porridge button.
After the porridge was cooked, Lu Zheng patted two cucumbers, added some seasoning, stirred it, and tasted it and it tasted pretty good.
"Come and taste it."
He took a piece of cucumber and put it to the child's mouth.
Yuanyuan pursed her lips and looked at him hesitantly.
"What's wrong?"
When Lu Zheng saw that she didn't want to eat, he didn't force her and fed her directly into his mouth.
"I don't like cucumbers..."
Yuanyuan always felt that cucumbers had a strange taste, which made her find it difficult to swallow.
"If you don't like it, don't eat it. I'll see if I can make some vegetables to go with the porridge."
Lu Zheng didn't like to eat bitter melon when he was a child, so Feng Nuan always tricked him into eating it and didn't allow him to be picky about food.
He really hates being forced to eat food he doesn't like, it feels really bad.
There are also lettuce and wild rice in the refrigerator. He plans to stir-fry them, but he may not succeed.
Yuanyuan looked at his back washing vegetables, ran to the living room and brought a small bench over, placed it next to the sink, and stepped on it to help him.
"You go watch TV, you don't need to do this."
Lu Zheng couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw how hard she was holding the wild rice.
"I'll help you…"
Yuanyuan has never seen this kind of dish before. The shape is a bit like bamboo shoots, but not the same.
"No, as long as the children are happy, there is no need to work."
Thinking about his interactions with the child these past few days, Lu Zheng felt that she was a bit like a little adult, too sensible, which made people feel uncomfortable.
"But I can't live and eat for free..."
Yuanyuan rubbed the wild rice with her little hands hard. Her mother used to say that if she didn't work hard, she wouldn't deserve to eat.
After hearing what she said, Lu Zheng frowned, raised his hand and turned off the faucet, picked her up to the living room, put her on the sofa before speaking.
"I am your father. It is my duty to provide you with food and clothing. You don't need to work in exchange for it. Do you understand?"
"..."
Yuanyuan looked at him blankly, she had never heard these words before.
"Watch some cartoons for a while, no need to follow me."
Lu Zheng turned on the TV, rubbed her head, and then went to the kitchen to continue working.
With yesterday's experience, he learned to add less seasoning, taste it for saltiness, and then consider whether to add more.
The lettuce was fried well, but a little too much oil was used, and the wild rice was burnt and had black spots on it.
Although it doesn't look very good, it's still edible.
The soft, glutinous and sweet white porridge was served with side dishes. Yuanyuan ate two full small bowls, which was quite a compliment.
"Dad, your cooking is delicious. It's much better than yesterday."
"Really? Then I'll cook for you tomorrow too."
Lu Zheng is the type who works harder the more he is praised. If his performance is rewarded, he is willing to continue doing it.
"Daddy is so kind!"
It has to be said that Yuanyuan is very talented in boasting, and Lu Zheng is very fond of it.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the father and daughter finished washing and lay in bed, with the little guy sleeping on his arm.
She used to sleep alone. It was very cold in winter and the surroundings were dark, so she only dared to sleep with her head under the quilt.
Now I sleep with my dad every day, and I feel very safe.
And daddy has muscles on his body, as strong as a cow.
Lu Zheng looked at the child's chubby face and couldn't help but think about the life she lived before meeting him.
From the beginning, the pity for the child gradually turned into heartache, seeping into the bones and blood, and gradually developed a love that even he was not aware of.
His sleep quality is very poor, and he can't help but think about things late at night, making it difficult to calm down for a long time.
But now he actually felt a little sleepy, and he felt very at ease holding the little ball of flesh in his arms.
This was the first time in recent years that Lu Zheng went to bed before ten o'clock and had a dreamless night.
Yuanyuan woke up at around four o'clock in the morning, glanced at her father blearily, turned over and crawled onto his stomach to sleep.
The weight of a child cannot be ignored. Pressing it for a long time will make it difficult to breathe.
Lu Zheng felt his chest was tight in his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he found that the child was sleeping on top of him, with a cute pink face.
He raised his hand to find the cell phone on the bedside and took a picture of the little guy's face.
She is indeed his daughter, she is beautiful no matter how you look at her.
There were several unread messages on the phone, and Feng Nuan sent several resumes, all of which were experienced nannies.
Lu Zheng looked over it and found nothing.
There are not many classes in his junior year. He did not go to school today. After breakfast, he took his children for a walk in the park downstairs.
When he had nothing to do before, he would eat, drink and have fun with his friends.
In the upper-class circles of City Z, he is known as a playboy.
When he was young, he loved to fight and disobeyed discipline. When he grew up, he loved clubbing, racing cars, and not doing his job properly.
Many people mentioned him and thought that he was useless and the Lu family's property would fall into Lu Chengxing's hands in the future.
