House Dad's Literary Life

Chapter 46 - The Clothes Fell Into The Water

Yan Xiaopeiʼsson is six years old, but she is actually only 28 years old.

Her firstmarriage was actually very difficult to talk about, a bit like a melodramatic show:An ignorant rural girl came to the big city to work, and then became infatuatedwith city life. In order to retain the city lifestyle, she approached a richman. But few years later, the man cheated on her and they got divorced, and shegot a break-up fee. She changed her appearance and began a new life in this city.(TN: Break-up fee is a real thing. An article about it: .)

Fortunately,the man she has favorable impression of didnʼt ask about her past, although shesecretly hinted that she had children but was still single.

She had ahard time living alone, not to mention, she also has to worry about her son. Asher son grows up, the burden on her shoulders became heavier and heavier, and theloneliness and desolation she faces at night are hard to bear.

Her heart grewlonging for a strong and caring man, who will share the pressure with her, and giveher love and care.

Seeing YangYi at first sight, Yan Xiaopei felt her heart was moved!

Unlike the malestudents who come to her store to buy flowers and keep their eyes on her chest,Yang Yi has an attractive mature temperament, and different from the men whochase her because of her beauty, Yang Yi did not have complexion that washollowed out by alcohol and women, on the contrary, when he get close, thestrong smell of men almost enthralls her.

Therefore, facingYang Yi, Yan Xiaopei was unexpectedly shy as a young girl. Even when talking,she was all wriggling, completely not her usual style!

Invited byYang Yi to go upstairs, Yan Xiaopei didnʼt think of opposing it. Even when shewent upstairs, she thought to herself, ”Is it too frivolous for me to do this?How can I go into a strange manʼs house so easily?”

But soon,Yan Xiaopei found a reason for his behavior: ”It doesnʼt matter, he has adaughter! One that is so cute. A man with a daughter canʼt be a bad guy.”

…….

While YanXiaopei was having wild thoughts, Yang Yi guided her to the bathroom, then wentout by himself and sat between the somewhat awkward Xixi and Yan Yingkai.

After herfather came, Xixi seemed to find support. She pedaled and ran over, nestled inhis fatherʼs arms, and whispered: ”Papa, I donʼt like him!”

”Why?”Yang Yi smiled and whispered to her daughter, ”Is it because littlebrother wonʼt play with you?”

”Well,I just donʼt like him.” Xixi pouted her little mouth.

Yang Yi rememberedthe books he has read these days, including references to the social problemsof children.

Because of heridentity, it is almost impossible for Mo Fei to take Xixi to play with childrenof the same age, while Yang Yi is no better. He can say that he is a loner orthat he doesnʼt open up to other people, and he rarely goes outside to meetstrangers.

In fact,there is a big lawn in the campus. Every afternoon, grandparents with their grandchildrenplay on the lawn, but Yang Yi has no interest at all.

After readingthe book, Yang Yi gradually realized that he was also one of the reasons why Xixiʼscharacter became a little withdrawn.

To help herdaughter grow up, Yang Yi has to make changes himself.

Yang Yiturned to look at the little boy. He smiled and tried to be very kind:”Yan Yingkai, can I call you Big Brother Little Kai? You are older than SisterXixi!”

Yan Yingkailooked at Yang Yi, but he did not dare to make eye contact with adults. He loweredhis gaze, and nodded gently.

”Yourmother said that you are studying to play the piano? How long have you been studyingthe piano? ” Yang Yi was a little stiff in trying to get close, butfortunately, his opponent was just a child.

”Just amonth ago.” Yan Yingkai replied in a low voice.

”I see.Would you like to share some interesting things with Sister Xixi about yourpiano lessons?” Yang Yi pulled Xixi to the front and asked.

At thismoment, Xixi was also looking at Big Brother Little Kai, but she didnʼt have asmall temper.

Yan Yingkaiwas a little embarrassed, but nodded.

”Then Xixi,would you like to take out your toys and play with Big Brother LittleKai?” Yang Yi pushed her daughter and said with a smile, ”Big BrotherLittle Kai and you are friends! Between friends, you have to learn toshare!”

Xixi wasstill very obedient, and she said in a crisp voice, ”Then Iʼll get them!”

Before she hasfinished speaking, she ran to the bedroom to get the toys her father had boughther.

Among thetoys Yang Yi bought for her, beside the dolls that Xixi likes, there were alsosome puzzle toys, such as magnetic toys that is a bit like Lego, which could beused as a maze game…

Xixi did herbest to drag her toy box over. Although Yan Yingkai is also a little loner, butafter all, he is a child. Seeing the toys, he was also attracted to them. Thetwo children soon played together.

As Yang Yiwatched them play, Yan Xiaopei secretly looked at a crack of the bathroom door,and gently called Yang Yiʼs name.

Yang Yi waspuzzled. He went over, but very gentlemanly looked at the side and didnʼt lookat Yan Xiaopeiʼs petite and graceful figure reflected in the frosted glassdoor.

”That,Yang Yi, my, my clothes got wet…” Yan Xiaopei seemed to be about to cryand said shyly. (TN: Her upper outer garment to be specific or her top.)

It turnedout that after Yan Xiaopei washed her feet, she wanted to take off her top thatgot wet by the rain and wring them dry, but ”accidentally” slip out ofher hands and ”happened” to fall on a pool of water. It canʼt really beworn anymore.

Yang Yi alsohad a headache. He hesitated for a moment, and went back to his room. He tookout a shirt that he had just bought, washed once, and have never been worn, andhanded it to Yan Xiaopei.

In fact, he didnʼtlike the idea of strangers using his stuff, but he canʼt let her come out naked,right?

After somerustling sounds, Yan Xiaopei finally came out, carrying a bag containing her wettop and dirty stockings.

Yang Yiwatched the two children playing in the living room. When he heard the sound,he took a look, but his mouth unexpectedly became dry.

The first thingthat catches his eyes was Yan Xiaopeiʼs red face. Her skin under the fume ofwater vapor looked smooth. Her hair was slightly moist, curled on her cheeks, addingmore charm on her.

Yang Yiʼsshort-sleeved shirt, which was worn on her petite figure, almost turned into askirt, but Yan Xiaopei had her own style. She slanted the hem around and tied aknot, which not only cover her denim shorts, making her looked like sheʼs notwearing pants, but this also revealed her little white waist, a smooth abdomenand a small naval.

And the silkstockings under the denim shorts have been removed, leaving only two slenderwhite thighs…

Yang Yi justglanced at it, then quickly looked away and pretended not to see it.

”Thankyou, Yang Yi!” Yan Xiaopei sat down next to Yang Yi, her eyes glancingaround.

Yan Xiaopei,who had experienced marriage failure, wouldnʼt dig up other peopleʼs corners,but just now in the bathroom, the attentive woman saw only two pairs oftoiletries, one for adults and one for a child.

She then sproutedsome beautiful thoughts!
