Chapter 876: Chapter 878: Little Tiger’s Daughter—Chu Si
West Suburb of Zhonghai.
Base of the Thorny Rose.
Rose Manor.
Inside the Central Villa belonging to Xue Mei, there sat a frail little girl with low blood pressure—Chu Si, who had once met Lin Fei. She sat with the Li sisters.
However, every time Chu Si raised her head to glance at the three people of Xue Mei, she would quickly lower her head. As for the Butcher, who kept pacing back and forth, Chu Si occasionally cast a glance at him as well.
On the sofa, curled up with tension and unease, Chu Si occasionally looked up at Xue Mei sitting opposite her, and Moli. Whenever she glanced at the Butcher, Chu Si seemed to sense something terrifying, causing her small body to tremble slightly.
“Xiao Xuan, you picked up this little girl—oh right, what’s this little girl’s name?”
“Sister-in-law, she’s called Chu Si.”
Responding to the Butcher, Xue Mei, with a hint of pity in her eyes, reexamined Chu Si and then somewhat reproachfully addressed the Butcher, “Why does Chu Si seem so afraid of you? Did you do something bad when you went to pick her up, scaring her?”
“Sister-in-law, I—I can swear to the heavens, I didn’t do anything bad to Chu Si. It’s just that when I went to the orphanage to pick her up, I was, I was just too nervous.”
“You’re a grown man, why should you be nervous about a little two- or three-year-old girl? Besides, even if you are nervous, you shouldn’t scare Chu Si, right? She’s so young, and she’s already tragically lost her parents, how can you be so careless?!”
“I—”
Faced with Xue Mei’s accusations, the Butcher stammered without being able to explain himself.
Fortunately, Xue Mei didn’t intend to scold the Butcher more than necessary, she casually reprimanded him a couple of times.
Xue Mei directly instructed Moli and her sister, saying, “Moli, go buy a few more outfits for Chu Si. Also, buy as many toys as possible. In addition, buy some items suitable for her. Right, did you ask the orphanage what Chu Si usually likes to eat?”
“Huh?”
“Huh what, did you forget to ask the orphanage?!”
“No, no, sister-in-law, you misunderstood me. I was just distracted for a moment. How could I forget to ask what Chu Si likes to eat? I specifically asked the orphanage director, the director told me quite a bit. Wait, let me think for a moment.”
The Butcher, regaining his senses, patted his head a couple of times, pacing in the living room to recall, “I remember, the orphanage director told me that Chu Si particularly likes millet porridge! Yes, millet porridge! Also, steamed buns, yeah, cornmeal buns! And pancakes, right, pancakes! And, what else was there…”
Before the Butcher could finish recalling, Xue Mei, with furrowed brows, couldn’t be bothered to listen to the Butcher recall the meals usually prepared for orphans like Chu Si.
Xue Mei directly instructed Moli and her sister, “After buying clothes and toys for Chu Si, find a professional infant nutritionist. Remember, it must be a professional. Alright, go.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
After receiving Xue Mei’s instructions, Moli and her sister responded in unison and left the Central Villa.
Shortly after Moli and her sister left, Lin Fei, who received the Butcher’s call, rushed to Rose Manor in a frenzy.
…
“So, boss, you’re saying you met Chu Si more than half a month ago?!”
Due to the Butcher’s question, Lin Fei’s face showed a bit of embarrassment, and with some apprehension, he glared back at the Butcher, saying, “I haven’t met Chu Si. How could I have known back then that Chu Si was Little Tiger’s daughter? Besides, I specifically asked the orphanage director about Chu Si’s background. The director told me that Chu Si’s parents were married.”
Little Tiger was not married to Chu Si’s mother because of his work and eventual unfortunate accident. Until Chu Si was born, Little Tiger and Chu Si’s mother had not registered their marriage.
Knowing this, upon hearing from the orphanage director that Chu Si’s parents were married, Lin Fei naturally dismissed the speculation that Chu Si was Little Tiger’s daughter.
“Boss, there’s something you don’t know. After her first orphanage was disbanded, Chu Si was adopted by a kind couple. However, they didn’t have her for long before misfortune struck, and they both passed away. As a result, Chu Si was sent to the orphanage again. The orphanage director wasn’t aware of Chu Si’s previous experience and just subconsciously assumed Chu Si was a child of that kind couple.”
After hearing the Butcher’s explanation, Lin Fei, suddenly realizing, focused his gaze on Chu Si, feeling even more fondness and compassion.
Lin Fei, wanting to hug Chu Si, found that after more than half a month, Chu Si clearly no longer recognized him.
Moreover, having been scared due to the Butcher’s nervousness when leaving the orphanage.
In a completely unfamiliar environment, Chu Si, although not as afraid of Lin Fei as she was of the Butcher, had eyes that held traces of unfamiliarity and dread when occasionally glancing at Lin Fei.
Having tried several times to approach Chu Si unsuccessfully, Lin Fei had to temporarily give up the idea of hugging her.
Then, Lin Fei turned to the Butcher, asking, “How did you find Chu Si, and how did you confirm Chu Si’s identity?”
“Chu Si was first found by Qiao Hui’s people. Initially, we couldn’t be sure that Chu Si was Little Tiger’s daughter. Later, I used the hair I kept from Little Tiger and compared it to Chu Si’s hair, conducting a DNA test. The DNA test results matched completely. The doctor who conducted the DNA test is someone on sister-in-law’s side, so there’s no chance of error or fraud. Chu Si is indeed Little Tiger’s daughter!”
After hearing the Butcher’s explanation, Lin Fei, realizing the truth, turned his fierce gaze towards Xue Mei, intending to express his gratitude.
However, before Lin Fei could speak, he was stopped by Xue Mei, who understood his intentions, with a look.
“Your matters are my matters. I’m very glad I could help you.”
Even though their relationship was already clear, and he understood Xue Mei’s feelings towards him, Lin Fei was still deeply moved by her words of unwavering support.
When a beautiful woman cares this much, warmth naturally arises in one’s heart…
