章節 15: Scene At The Mall
Su Li
"I wasn't biting him."
Daiyu said and I snapped out of my daze.
"Huh?"
"You kicked him out of your house in such a hurry as if I was going to eat him." She clarified.
When did I acted like that?
I just asked him very politely to leave, I even said it would be late otherwise. Why is she making it look like I was being rude?
And whose fault is it? I just did that because of her. Who know what she would speak in the next moment. I don't want to get embarrassed.
"Ok, now don't put the blame on me. I haven't settled scores with you for not taking my side earlier." I say. It was clearly she who talking with him and saying all kind of stuff, then how did I ended up being the one who was supposed to answer.
"What side? Uncle asked you that question himself. Of course it is rude to say something when two people are speaking."
Well done. She is what I taught her against me.
"I would leave this matter since you are so cute, but no next time. We are a team, right."
"Yeah."
No matter how smart she is, she is still a child.
Even though she is just a little girl, I share almost everything with her. Sometimes children can understand way more than we think they can.
I help her wash up, tucked her in and laid beside her.
"Was he your boyfriend? Daiyu asked.
When did I have a boyfriend? Why am I not aware of this fact?
"Who?"
"The uncle earlier." She rolls her eyes like I asked such an obvious question.
When this happened?
"No! What goes on in that little head of yours? Don't make random assumptions. He is not my boyfriend." I clarify.
"And why would I hide my boyfriend from you." I ask her aggrievedly.
"Mom told me that dad used to come at her home in the pretext of her friend but they were secretly dating. So I thought that maybe you lied to me."
"Don't take me for my small age. Mom have told me about love stories so many time." She explains in case I don't believe her.
"Ok, I believe you." You and your mom. What is Song Ci doing, telling her all that.
At the mention of Song Ci, I thought of Daiyu's words earlier. I will just ask Song Ci about it when I will meet her.
If she wants to start or do something then why she is not doing it. She should go for it.
Anyways, I have seen how much self-conscious she is. She has second-thoughts every moment.
I have seen her belittling herself every now and then. Even when she could do something, she would reject herself, before anyone else would.
The next day I took Daiyu for shopping at a high end mall.
Who can resist buying cute dresses for such an adorable child?
Strangely Daiyu is not that fond of dresses.
"How about this dress, it is so cute." It is beautiful blue frock which would reach her knees.
God. She will look like an angel in it.
"I am not trying that." The same response which I have been hearing for the past half an hour now.
It's not like she choose or wear something bad. She would look nice and cute in everything. She just wear pants, and tops, and I have not seen her wear a frock even once.
When she will wear these if not now?
"Please for me?" I looked at her with puppy eyes.
Anyone witnessing this situation would think that I am the child who is looking at her mother to let her wear this dress. I don't mind acting like this in front of her though.
I understand that I should not force, and she can have her own opinion. That's a good thing that she refuses if something is not to her liking.
That's why I don't force her. Not that much. It might be hard to believe, but I treat her as my friend, and I know she thinks the same too.
It is strange, but it is what it is.
So you can plead your friend in trying something she doesn't like, right. And it is more fun to see her reaction on that.
"This one then. You will look a doll in it." I say as I select another dress for her.
"I don't want to look a doll." She refused as usual.
"Hey, they don't have such cute clothes in adult section, you can only wear them now, and you be able to wear these when you grow up anyway." I say hoping that she would agree to try the dress after hearing me.
"You can ask someone to custom made them for you then. No need to be that sad." She rolled her eyes.
The audacity of her to say that. Of course I know you can do such a thing. But no matter what you still won't look that nice. I think it's more to do with age than dress.
After bothering her for so long, she finally decided to try a dress.
As I expected she looked like a little angel in it. It was a white gown with pearls attached to it.
Anyway Daiyu looked absolutely stunning in it.
"Look I told you, you'll look good." I said.
Even though she tried it on my insistence I knew that she did not want. So I did not force her to buy it. Instead I took as many as photos as possible of her wearing that dress, from all the angles.
I bought her few dresses which I liked, and she insisted that we look something for me too.
We were looking at the dresses when I heard someone saying something behind me.
"Look at her first she seduced my husband a few days ago and now this slut is roaming freely around." I frowned at her words, but ignored it. I just thought that this lady's voice is a little familiar.
"If not for the Qin family we would not have dropped that issue."
Now I finally understood that they were talking about me. And she is none other than Gong Hua, Lin Wen's mother.
I turn around and look at her telling this to two ladies who were with her.
One of them gasped at Mrs Lin's words.
"Really! She's so bad."
"She is also taking a child around." Mrs Lin said disdainfully while pointing at Daiyu beside me.
I could have let this matter slide if they did not included Daiyu.
"Who knows, who must be her father?" the second lady who had been quite all this time added.
"She would have slept around with some old men. People like her can do anything for money." Mrs Lin said.
Isn't it getting completely ridiculous? I did not offend her in any way.
Just because I bumped into her husband she came to conclusions like this.
Who does she think she is? Going around and accusing random people. She should be sent to asylum instead.
"I am sorry but not everyone is like you who would do everything for the money." I interrupted her before she spoke any more nonsense.
"I tolerated you that time because it was indeed my fault for bumping into your husband, but that doesn't mean I was seducing him."
"No matter how backward your thoughts are please keep them to yourself and don't contaminate others." I want to beat this woman.
"We did not said someone's name, did we? It was you who assumed that we were talking about you. You must be feeling guilty, that's why you explained yourself in a hurry."
"What a bi*ch she is." The lady who was with her added.
They might not have said someone's name, but only we are here in this particular section.
I have seen my share of ridiculous people, but I have never seen someone as thick skinned as her.
"We must have spoken the truth that's why you were so triggered. God knows whose child this little girl must be."
"Enough!" I shout at her. I don't care about anything now. She crossed her boundaries again and again.
"I don't give a damn about who you are. If you think that the Qin family would help you in everything you would do then you can go ahead. I don't have anything to do with you. I am already being polite by tolerating you till now, but if you think I won't say a word then you are wrong. You can't get away with everything. If you said another stupid word in front of me I will sue you for slandering me. And I would like to see that who will come to your rescue at that time."
I know for sure the Qin family would never help her if I were to file a lawsuit against her.
"You can try me if you want." I threaten her. I am officially done with this woman.
I held Daiyu's hand, who had been silent the whole time, and walked out of the store leaving the stunned Mrs Lin behind.
