Chapter 408 Studying Abroad with Dad 3
At that moment, a light, rapid knock on the door suddenly rang out, seemingly shattering the tranquil atmosphere of the room. Kevin carefully placed Feng Xi on the chair beside him, fearing to frighten his precious child. Then, he quickly walked to the door, reached out to grasp the doorknob, and gently turned it. The door slowly opened.
The door opened, and a figure appeared before her. The girl was dressed in loose pajamas, her fair legs exposed, her long, wet hair casually tucked away in a white towel. Feng Xi glanced at her, knowing she was none other than Zhu Lusa from the original series. She paid no attention, instead picking up the mouse on the table and skillfully opening the game interface, ready to immerse herself in the action.
Kevin stood quietly at the door, looking at the somewhat impertinent girl in front of him with a smile, and asked, "What's wrong? You came to see me so late, is there something wrong?"
Zhu Lusa blinked her big watery eyes and replied shyly: "Hello, my name is Zhu Lusa. Sorry to bother you, I just wanted to ask if there is any milk at home. I suddenly want to drink some milk..." As she spoke, she unconsciously tugged at the corner of her clothes with her hand.
After hearing this, Kevin responded gently: "Oh, so that's the case. Hello, my name is Chen Kaiwen. There should be some milk in the refrigerator, you can just go and get it yourself." After that, he pointed in the direction of the kitchen, indicating Zhu Lusa to go and find it herself.
After Zhu Lusa nodded in understanding, Kevin closed the door without hesitation and turned back inside. However, none of this escaped Feng Xi's eyes. She raised her eyebrows slightly, her lips curled up, revealing a sly smile, and teased, "Hey, Brother Kevin, why did you just let this little girl get the milk by herself? She's a pretty girl after all, don't you know how to be gentle with her?" Her words were full of teasing.
Kevin walked slowly and steadily towards Feng Xi, his deep eyes gleaming with tenderness and concern. He bent down and gently lifted Feng Xi from her chair, his movements as gentle as if she were a priceless treasure. Feng Xi, caught off guard, let out a cry of surprise, her voice as clear and melodious as a nightingale.
Kevin then carefully carried Feng Xi to the bedside and slowly laid her on the soft mattress. He stared at Feng Xi's beautiful face and said softly, "Xixi, you are the only one in the world who can make me cherish and love you so much. As for the others, they have nothing to do with me. I'm not her father, so how can I have the time to care about trivial matters like whether she drinks milk or not? She's not a child anymore. The milk is right there in the refrigerator. If she wants it, she can just go and get it herself. Why bother knocking on our door..."
Hearing what Kevin said, Feng Xi couldn't help but burst out laughing, and said coquettishly: "Oh my! Look at our brother Kevin, he is getting smarter and smarter, and he didn't even get fooled!" As she spoke, her big watery eyes looked at Kevin with a smile.
Kevin looked at the woman in front of him with a sweet smile, his heart filled with joy, and he couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her silky hair. At this moment, Feng Xi was quietly nestled in Kevin's warm embrace, but her thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the original plot. In that story, Kevin was deceived because he trusted Zhu Lusa's superficial innocence and kindness, which led to a series of troubles later. But now it seems that perhaps it was because of his unexpected appearance that the whole plot deviated and changed. This is good, at least this time Zhu Lusa should not frame Kevin like before. Thinking of this, Feng Xi's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a relieved smile. Thinking that the two had not finished their meal yet, Kevin asked softly, "Xixi, are you hungry now? I'm so sorry, I was so focused just now that I forgot the time and made you miss dinner. How about this, I'll go downstairs and make you a plate of fried egg noodles?" After saying that, Kevin looked at Feng Xi expectantly, his eyes full of guilt.
Feng Xi nodded slightly in agreement, and then the two of them walked downstairs together. Just as they reached the stairs, Liu Ruoyu suddenly walked out of the room. She was holding a pot of steaming hot food in her hand, and carefully placed it on the dining table. Then she shouted to the two of them, "Come and eat quickly, both of you! Don't stay out so late to eat again. And you, Kevin, be careful. If you dare to do anything to let Xixi down, I won't forgive you..." As she spoke, Liu Ruoyu glared at Kevin fiercely.
Kevin was somewhat baffled by his mother's sudden words. He looked at Liu Ruoyu in astonishment and asked doubtfully, "Mom, what on earth do you mean by that?" Liu Ruoyu did not directly answer her son's question, but cast her eyes on Feng Xi's neck. Seeing the clearly visible mark on it, she couldn't help but frown, glared at Kevin again, and scolded him, "You little brat, don't forget that I gave birth to you. Don't I know your temper? Look at Xixi's neck! Stop those clumsy behaviors from now on..."
After hearing what Liu Ruoyu said, Feng Xi blushed with shame and wished she could find a hole to hide in. She lowered her head, her cheeks as red as ripe apples, as if they would bleed at any moment. Seeing this, Kevin quickly stretched out his arms to hug Feng Xi and comforted her, "Don't worry, Mom! I will definitely treat Xi Xi well and will never let her suffer any grievances..."
Seeing this, Liu Ruoyu didn't say anything more. She just shook her head helplessly and turned to leave the restaurant.
Feng Xi could only flirt with her pink fist and gently hit Kevin beside her, mumbling a complaint, "It's all Brother Kevin's fault!" Kevin's lips curled up slightly, revealing a doting smile. He quickly leaned over and kissed Feng Xi's pink cheek, saying softly, "Oh, my little darling, I really couldn't help myself. I'm sorry. I promise I'll be more careful next time..." Feng Xi rolled her beautiful eyes and glared at Kevin fiercely, but this glare was not at all intimidating, but instead seemed playful and adorable. And so, the two of them happily ended their dinner time amidst a burst of laughter and playfulness.
After dinner, Kevin politely escorted Feng Xi back to her room. After a gentle farewell, Kevin turned and slowly left. Feng Xi, beaming with joy, entered her room, casually pulled a set of soft, comfortable pajamas from the closet. Then, humming a light tune, she entered the bathroom and washed herself comfortably. Her body exuded a captivating fragrance after her bath. She towel-dried her hair and body, then gracefully placed her dirty clothes in the basin. Just as she was about to begin washing, there was a sharp knock on the door. Confused, Feng Xi murmured softly, wondering who could be there so late at night. She quickly walked to the door and gently opened it. Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw Kevin, whom she had just parted ways with and who had also finished washing.
Kevin, smiling, immediately pushed Feng Xi into the room, then strode in and closed the door behind him. He then looked at Feng Xi with concern and asked, "Dear, what are you doing right now?" Feng Xi lowered her head shyly and whispered, "I just got out of the shower and was just about to wash these clothes." Upon hearing this, Kevin quickly stepped forward, took the basin from Feng Xi's hand, and volunteered to help her wash the clothes. Seeing this, Feng Xi couldn't help but chuckle and deliberately teased, "Brother Kevin, don't you think it's a bit inappropriate for a grown man to wash clothes for girls?" Kevin shook his head nonchalantly, still smiling as he hung the washed clothes up and replied to Feng Xi, "Of course not! Honey, your clothes smell delicious..." Feng Xi glared at him fiercely and scolded him coquettishly, "You hooligan!" After that, she turned around angrily, walked lightly onto the bed, and quickly got into the quilt to prepare for sleep. When Kevin saw this scene, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. He lifted the quilt without hesitation and slid in like an agile cat.
Feng Xi felt the weight and warmth of another person beside her. She turned around and looked at Kevin who was hugging her tightly. A blush appeared on her face and she whispered, "Brother Kevin, this is not a good idea..." However, Kevin looked serious and answered solemnly, "What's wrong with it? I can't fall asleep without my baby by my side!" After that, he deliberately hugged Feng Xi even tighter.
Feng Xi couldn't help laughing and asked mischievously, "How has Brother Kevin spent the past ten years? Has he always suffered from insomnia?" Kevin kissed Feng Xi's forehead gently and responded tenderly, "I don't know how I got through the past, but I know that from now on, if I can't hug my baby every night, I will suffer from insomnia for decades to come! Okay, stop talking, go to bed obediently, we still have to go to school together tomorrow..." Hearing Kevin's affectionate words, Feng Xi's heart was filled with sweetness. She arched her back in Kevin's arms like a docile kitten, found a comfortable position, closed her eyes quietly, and gradually fell asleep.
Before long, Kevin could hear Feng Xi's steady, gentle breathing. Feeling the warmth of the woman in his arms, he felt a profound sense of peace. Unconsciously, he, too, drifted into a sweet dream. Moonlight streamed through the window onto their embraced figures, casting a silver veil over the heartwarming scene.
