Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns

Chapter 287 - Daddy Is No Match to Mommy (1)

That reminded the empress of her almost non-existent relationship with her own father. There weren't many memories that she had with Tang Lixue. She only remembered seeing him a couple of times during her childhood. Everyone said that they both had the same personality, but Tang Moyu refused to be compared to a cowardly man like him.

Even though he'd lost Yan Qiuyu and her brother, she was still his daughter, very much alive and needed him, but what did he do? Tang Lixue allowed his wife to exploit her, to use her. Any sane mother wouldn't have treated her the way Zhang Wuying did and Tang Moyu refused to allow her own daughter to experience the same hell she'd overcome.

Tang Feixiu would grow up as a happy child along with her twin brother. Tang Moyu had sworn this on her birth mother's grave, when she and Feng Tianyi paid respects to her remains, before coming back to Shenzhen.

Zhang Wuying was awfully quiet these days, sending alarm bells to the empress. She had expected the old woman to barrage in her office again and demean her for putting Tang Beixuan in an entry position rather than giving him a higher one.

Something was off. The empress's instincts were telling her. It was unlikely that the old witch would remain mum over it, or was she up to something? It's hard to tell what Zhang Wuying was planning to do and Tang Moyu could only be wary and careful of what could happen in the coming days.

Her deep thoughts were forced to a halt when Little Star called her attention.

"Mommy, are you still busy?" Little Star asked. She was now seated on her Daddy Ji's l.a.p, her breathing still uneven.

Tang Moyu hummed and put down the papers she had in her hand. Little Star and Xiao Bao didn't like it when she overworked at home. She was supposed to be looking after her daughter or spending time with them, not focusing on work.

"What is it, darling?" Tang Moyu asked her daughter.

"Mommy, I want an ice cream." The little girl said before hiding in her Daddy Ji's embrace, knowing her mother would disapprove of her request.

But she couldn't take the heat of the weather anymore! Although the room she shared with her Yu Gege had an air conditioner inside, she'd been craving to eat something sweet and cool at the same time.

Tang Moyu's eyes narrowed while her daughter squeaked and tried to avoid her gaze.

"Daddy…" She called out, as if seeking Feng Tianyi's help, knowing that she wouldn't be able to convince her mother this time.

"No, Little Star. We cannot allow you to eat something like that for now." The empress didn't waste time to reject her daughter's request.

"But Mommy!" Little Star's voice was a little strained because of the mask covering her nose and mouth.

"No buts, darling. Anything but that. I'll ask Auntie Lu to make something healthy and delicious for you to eat." Tang Moyu mustered all the strength she could to harden herself and deny her sick daughter.

Seeing that there's nothing else she could do to convince her mother, Little Star turned to Feng Tianyi in despair. If she couldn't convince her Mommy, she still has Daddy on her side!

"Daddy…" Her eyes glistened with tears, begging him. Except for her Mommy, no one has been able to resist her begging eyes and it most definitely worked on her Daddy Ji everytime.

Feng Tianyi felt helpless right then. How would he be able to deny Little Star's wishes when it was so damn hard to do so without making her cry? He really didn't know who to side with between his woman and her daughter this time.

"Uhh… but Little Star, your mommy already disagreed." He can't possibly rule out Tang Moyu's decision, right? Tang Moyu will skin him alive if he dares to overstep his boundaries.

He could feel her fierce glare on him and he couldn't help but shiver under her intense gaze, as if she was daring him to listen to her daughter's demands.

Little Star sniffed and wiped her tears with her knuckles, making the devil feel guilty over it. He really didn't want to make the girl upset with his refusal. Why was it suddenly his fault now?

Maybe he shouldn't have come here. He didn't expect to get trapped between the mother and daughter's argument. He certainly didn't want to get his wifey mad at him, but Feng Tianyi also couldn't stand seeing Little Star being drenched in tears.

"If you want to eat ice cream, then you better recover soon, Little Star." Feng Tianyi tried to console the crying child while Tang Moyu looked away, her heart aching, knowing that she needed to be strict on her children for their sake.

"Daddy is right, Little Star. If you eat ice cream right now, you might get sick again." Xiao Bao told his sister, knowing that their Mommy was just worried that Little Star's condition would worsen.

Growing up, he'd seen how worried their mother spent sleepless nights taking care of Little Star. How can he not know how hard it was for their Mommy to say no to Little Star's wishes?

Little Star looked at her twin brother who had a serious expression on his face. Her lips trembled before glancing at their mother, who was still keeping her cold mask on.

Ah, it's really hard to be the little man of the house, Xiao Bao thought to himself. Anyway, now that they have a new daddy, Daddy Ji should be able to share his burden, right?

Little Star pouted, but accepted that she'd lost dramatically this time. She knew it would be impossible for her mommy to change her mind once she had decided. Aiya, just as she thought she now had an ally in the form of a new daddy… but Daddy Ji didn't seem to disagree with their mommy.

The little girl sighed. She guessed that there's no helping it. At least Daddy Ji knew who's the real boss in this household.
