Bai Lua Er not had a chance to see her father's face since he'd left this world before she was born.
No one had told her about the death of her father because they were afraid that she would be sad. She only knew that Bai Chen was far away and would return one day.
That was why she was very happy to hear them talking about her father.
After the death of her mother 2 years ago, she had been quite devastated and had always been waiting for her father to come back.
And now, her father was back!
Bai Xue Chen smiled kindly and patted the little girl's head. He laughed. "Papa is out buying things and he'll be right back. Are you excited to see him, Lua Er?"
"I am very happy!" Bai Lua Er screamed happily.
Lan Ling could not help but ask Bai Xue Chen, "Didn't you tell me that your father…?"
"I've only heard that father was gone, but never knew if it was true. Now I know it wasn't. I don't understand why they had to lie," Bai Xue Chen answered softly. It was only normal since he did not know Bai Chen came from another parallel world.
"Xue Chen, go help auntie Er Er. Lua Er and Lan Ling, wait there," Xu Xin Tong told them before preparing the space for dining. There was no proper table in the room, so they had to eat on the floor.
Bai Xue Chen quickly ran to help Xu Er Er plate the food. Lan Ling also did the same. Bai Lua Er only stared longingly at the door.
Her eyes sparkled like stars in the sky. Suddenly, the door was opened. Bai Chen walked in and closed it.
"Papa…" As soon as she saw Bai Chen, Bai Lua Er's cute round eyes widened. Her voice was very cute. No one had to tell her anything—she knew that this man was her father because he looked very much like her brother.
However, she did not run to him. She was shy.
"Lua Er." Bai Chen walked towards her.
He flicked his hand and a stuffed white bunny appeared in it. He bent down and gave the doll to the girl. It was obvious that he had been out again to buy this for her.
Bai Lua Er looked at him with sparkling eyes while her heart pounding with excitement. She did not reach out her hand to grab the stuffed animal because she was too shy.
"Lua Er, why don't you take it? This is papa whom you were asking about earlier," Bai Xue Chen said with a smile.
Hearing that, Bai Lua Er reached her shaky hands out to take the stuffed animal.
Bai Chen took this chance to pick her up.
"Waahhh." The girl was so alarmed, she cried out.
Bai Chen looked closely at her. She looked very much like her mother.
"Papa." Bai Lua Er could feel the warmth that she had been longing for. She hugged Bai Chen and cried.
Bai Chen comforted her by patting her head. "Lua Er, I'm sorry I'm late."
Even though he was not the Bai Chen of this world, Bai Lua Er was still his daughter.
"Waa… Wahh…" The girl cried for a long while before she stopped.
After that, everyone sat down and ate together. It was a warm meal that they had not experienced in a long time.
Once they were done, Lan Ling excused herself to go home. She was actually quite wealthy and lived far away from here.
Even so, she came here very often to see Bai Xue Chen and the children. Before she left, she had been examining Bai Chen since he had black and white hair just like the 'Bai Xue Chen' who'd saved her yesterday.
"Big brother, I'm going to pick In Ye up." After Lan Ling left, Xu Er Er said this to Bai Chen, who was playing with Bai Lua Er, after she washed all the dishes.
"Let me come too." Bai Chen wanted to see his other daughter. She must be as pretty as her mother, Long Xu In.
"Of course." Xu Er Er was happy.
"Take care," Xu Xin Tong said.
"Yes, Xin Tong," Xu Er Er said back.
"Let me go too," little Bai Lua Er said. It seemed like she did not want to be separated from her father.
Bai Chen smiled and took her hand before leading her out along with Xu Er Er. Bai Xue Chen watched them leave happily.
"If In Ye sees him, she will be very happy."
Xu Xin Tong smiled. She agreed with Bai Xue Chen.
.................................................
Bai Chen took a cutting-edge taxi to the primary school where his daughter was with Xu Er Er and his youngest daughter.
It was the end of Bai In Ye's school field trip, and it was almost the end of the school day. That was why Xu Er Er had quickly come out to pick her up.
The taxi pulled over at the front of the school gate. Bai Chen gave him the golden chip card. The driver was surprised that he would choose to take a taxi, not a flying car or a public spaceship since they were a lot more comfortable and faster.
Bai Chen took the golden chip card back without paying attention to the driver.
Xu Er Er was also surprised at seeing that. Bai Chen had just arrived here yesterday. When did he have time to apply for a chip card, let alone the golden one?
She had so many questions that she wanted to ask, but she decided to keep them to herself for now. The most important thing right now was her niece.
There were a great many parking cars in front of the school. Most of them were normal ones and some were flying cars. It was obvious that there were more middle-class children than rich ones enrolled here in this private primary school.
