Chapter 42: Kissing a frog in the dark

Yi Chen took the napkin and wiped Ming Ming's tears while coaxing the little girl. "No one will be kissing frogs. Yuoxi is just being silly," he said before placing more pieces of meat in her bowl.

Like a hungry hyena, she stopped crying and ate fast while wiping her eyes. She was afraid her mother would tell Yi Chen to take back the meat so she gobbled it up before Lin Ruoxi could stop her. She was the kind of child who would eat meat only and not the rest which is why Lin Ruoxi was strict with her. Unfortunately, today she was destined to fail.

"What's the hurry? I am certain he will get to meet a lovely girl in the military," said the Marshal but his mind was still on Yi Youxi. He really needed to spend more time with him otherwise his son's mind might keep twisting in the wrong direction.
