Lois looked at Joey. It was the first time that he had talked so much to her calmly, but she was annoyed and disdainful.
If she didn't have to stay in Gu Family for a while, she might have left right moment!
"Okay." Lois looked at the porridge in the pot and said, "the porridge is almost ready. I'm going to see Maggie."
She took out two soup bowls, filled the bowl with porridge and soup, and put the salad on the tray. After finishing all these, She still didn't give Joey a reply but went upstairs.
Watching Lois go upstairs, Joey was discouraged. He had never dealt with family affairs, nor cared about them. However, this kind of torture had consumed most of his energy.
He didn't understand why Lois had a good attitude at the beginning, but suddenly became cold to him because he asked her to move back. They almost turned against each other.
Seeing that the family became lively again as Lois came back, Joey felt very satisfied. She thought that if Lois had any requirements or rules, he could even make some concessions as long as she didn't go too far.
Thinking of this, Joey went upstairs to the Princess Room.
Maggie had woken up. The food on the tray was put aside, and the mother and daughter were whispering intimately. The little girl was speaking that Lois hadn't been home for a long time so she hadn't played the puzzle game for a long time.
Joey's heart skipped a beat. Puzzle Game, He had never heard of this word in Maggie's moths before. She kept all her and Lois's daily lives but never shared them with him.
Joey left the Princess Palace in disappointment and went downstairs with a frown.
He didn't know since when Maggie didn't pay attention on this father. He vaguely remembered that when he came back home early, the little girl looked at him secretly. Her eyes were shining with admiration, comparable to all the bright stars in the world.
Since when, Lois and Maggie were getting farther and farther away from him? He didn't know and couldn't figure it out.
It was already eight o'clock in the evening after Lois fed Maggie. During this period, no one disturbed them except the servants who came to take the girl's temperature.
After playing for more than an hour, Maggie finally couldn't hold on any longer. She yawned frequently, but tried to smile and continue to play with Lois.
Lois held Maggie in her arms and patted her back gently. A few minutes ago, the little girl asked her mother to tell her a story, but she fell asleep before the end of the story.
Lois's story didn't stop, and her hands were still patting Maggie's back unhurriedly. At the same time, she had already stood up and put the little girl on the bed.
Noticing that the temperature dropped and Maggie's crying face was about to open her eyes, Lois hurriedly patted her back a few more times.
Maggie gradually adapted to the new environment. She withdrew the corners of her mouth and returned to her expressionless face when she was asleep.
Lois looked at the little girl's little face. Maggie's face was very soft, like her oval face, her eyes and eyebrows were also very similar to her, but her thin lips, which were exactly the same as Joey's, looked a little cold.
She could almost foresee that Maggie would look like a cold beauty when she grew up. Her lips were too thin and cold, but she just didn't want Maggie to look like her but Joey. She would rather her to be a burden than be a burden by others.
Looking at Maggie sleeping soundly, Lois bent over and kissed her on the forehead. She pinched her cheek lovingly and said, "good night, baby."
Lois stood up and left the Princess Palace. She gently closed the door and looked at the servant at the door. It was the woman who called her Young Mrs. Gu at the beginning. She smiled and said, "did Mrs. Gu ask you to come here?"
"Yes, Young Mrs. Gu." The maid nodded.
