Married to the Protagonist - Chapter 202: Side Story 4 (1)
Ch.202 Side Story 4 (1)
Sometimes, being a doting father and a sister-holic was not a good thing.
But Yan Zaozao, who was showered in her father and brother’s love, didn’t understand why this was a bad thing.
Until one day, when Yan Zaozao noticed that her beautiful princess dress felt tight on her, she blinked and raised her hand to touch her protruding belly. After a few seconds, her expression broke down and she began to panic.
She hurried to the study and asked her father.
The study room was well-lit. Yan Cheng looked away from the computer screen when he saw his little girl running in, he stared at her earnestly for quite some time, “How is my Zaozao fat, it’s the skirt that has shrunk in size.”
Hearing this, Yan Zaozao tilted her little head and felt skeptical about his words.
It just so happened that at that time, her elder brother, Yan Chi was also working on his homework at the small table in the study. After listening to his sister’s doubts, he stood firmly on his father’s side and added: “It’s true, clothes tend to get smaller after giving a few washes.”
The father and son echoed each other, to the extent where they were already lying through their teeth.
This goes along with the saying, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.
To be honest, the little girl looked extremely cute on the chubbier side.
But as she got older, she couldn’t just get chubbier and chubbier.
Yan Zaozao looked at her father and then at her brother.
In the end, under their particularly affirmative gaze, she was completely persuaded.
After all, her father and brother never lied to her.
“Well, then I’ll go watch some cartoons.”
It was three o’clock in the afternoon.
Chen Jinyao just finished her sudden weekend overtime shift to treat her patient’s teeth.
When she got home, she didn’t even have time to put on her slippers.
She was already cornered by her little girl. Her expression seemed tense, and with a serious face: “Mom, Zaozao has some questions to ask.”
The child Yan Zaozao pulled her mother into the small living room on the first floor, which belonged to her and her brother alone, patted the lazy sofa chair, and motioned her mother to take a seat.
Chen Jinyao raised her eyebrows, slightly puzzled, but still obediently obeyed her little girl’s orders. As soon as she sat down, the little girl stood on her right, held her hand, as her sleek deer-like eyes stared right at her.
“What’s the matter?” Chen Jinyao raised her hand and softly pinched the little girl’s cheek.
The little girl shook her head, and the vibe implying “I am going to sincerely ask a question” overflowed through her gaze.
Finally, after ten seconds.
“Mummy.”
“Um.”
Yan Zaozao looked down and seemed slightly dejected.
After a long while, with a low voice, she asked: “Mom, am I fat?”
She thought about it carefully, and couldn’t just listen to her father and brother’s one sided opinion.
“This skirt is so tight.” She twisted her body, pouting.
“………”
The little girl had such an awareness, which took Chen Jinyao by surprise.
She squinted her eyes, and took her whole figure in, she squeezed her small chubby hand with the back of hers, her tongue pressed against her upper jaw, “Do you want to listen to the truth or the lie?”
“The truth!” Yan Zaozao’s brows furrowed, giving off an aura as if she could face death fearlessly, “Mom, I want to listen to the truth.”
Chen Jinyao smiled with her eyes at the very beginning of her sentence and couldn’t help but laugh, “Fat.”
Yan Zaozao: “……” A critical blow.
Although she vaguely knew the truth, she had also mentally prepared herself for her response.
But when she heard her own mother answer this bluntly, she still felt bad.
Chen Jinyao caught her in one swoop and held her in her arms.
She lowered her head and said to her patiently: “The last time you went for your check-up, the doctor said that Zaozao was slightly overweight early, but don’t be too worried, it’s just slightly overweight.”
She gave her a thumbs up and, with the assistance of her thumb, she expressed the so-called “a little bit”, “It isn’t a huge problem.”
“But Zaozao, you have to eat more vegetables from now on, okay?”
“You can’t just eat meat.” Chen Jinyao tapped on Yan Zaozao’s little nose. “That’s not a balanced meal. If you eat too much meat, you will get fat.”
“You, daddy and your brother spoil you rotten, I can’t even say a word, but you still listen to them, do you know where you’re wrong now?”
Yan Zaozao played around with her fingers and nodded obediently.
“Also, when you go out to play, you can’t always ask for people to carry you around.”
“You can only do so after you’re exhausted from all the walking.” After a pause, Chen Jinyao patted the girl’s lotus root legs, “Did I not give you a pair of feet?”
“You’ll only be healthy if you exercise more.”
She had long wanted to talk about this issue, and it would be nice to use this pretext to talk about what should be said, so that the next time she educates her, she won’t be interfered with by the father and son pair, who turn completely brainless for her daughter.
