Chapter 137 - Better luck in convincing (2/2)
Aww! My daughter is loyal to me.
Jae Hyun smiles at her. ”Then, everyone can live together.”
Ha-Neul nods approvingly. ”All of us can live together.”
Do Sejin sighs and says, ”Hana doesn't like crowdy places.”
”...”
I am starting to understand how Kang Si An feels.
When we come back home, Kang Si An is already there. His work is highly irregular. He comes whenever he's free. I would prefer if he comes less frequently.
”Daddy.” Little Hae sits on his ŀȧp. ”I made this for you.”
Kang Si An opens the card. I don't know what's written inside. Last week, she made one for me. She wrote why she loved her Mommy. I am guessing that this card is something similar.
”Little Hae...” I hear his voice cracking. The guy is emotional again. When it comes to Little Hae, he wouldn't even think twice before shamelessly crying or acting out on his emotions. ”I love you, Little Hae. You are the best daughter in the world.”
Of course, she is.
I click my tongue and take snacks to the table. ”Little Hae, go wash your hands first.”
”Yes, mommy.” She climbs off his ŀȧp and goes to wash her hands. I stare at Kang Si An who is still looking at the card with teary eyes.
”Will you stop?” Seeing him gives me a headache sometimes. ”It's hard to believe that you were a revered general once.”
”Receiving this is more valuable than receiving any honor from the emperor,” He replies with a heavy tone. ”I feel as if my life is complete.”
He's changed. In the last six months, he has shown me how much he loves Little Hae.
”Daddy.” Little Hae comes back and takes her seat in his ŀȧp again. ”I will marry Hyun and all of us will live together.”
”...” You didn't need to tell him that.
He opens his mouth. His eyes are widened in shock. His skin becomes pale as the dead. ”What did you say?”
”Hyun will marry me, Daddy.” She beams at him. ”Then, Hyun can stay with us.”
”Kyuri, what is she saying?” Kang Si An looks at me, crestfallen.
Not again.
”She's a child. Don't take her words seriously.” I get up, ready to run away. He's going to nag me again for introducing a boy to his daughter. How would I have known that things would turn out like this? ”These kids don't even know what marriage is.”
”Little Hae, you absolutely can't marry him.” Kang Si An ignores me. ”You aren't allowed to date until you are 40. Boys are bad for your health.”
”Daddy, I like Hyun. He's not bad,” Little Hae tells him with a small voice.
Seeing her sad, Kang Si An's lips quiver uneasily. He blinks once. He can't bear to see any unhappy expression on her face. ”You can't like him more than me.”
”I like Daddy the most.” A big smile appears on her face.
Content, Kang Si An finally reveals a dazzling smile. ”I love Little Hae the most.”
My daughter is better at handling her father than I am.
