Beside them, there is a group of children, and the family is full of joy.
Lance, who stands aside, doesn’t fit in, but he looks at the scene in front of him with a smile.
"Alas, see, you honey is here, so you won't care about me any more."
Lance plays jokes on Miya, which makes her flush, "Lance, thank you."
"You're welcome. If Alex bully you next time, you can come to me again, I..." Lance's words are not finished, but he feels a pain in his hand. He raises his hand on which appears teeth marks.
"Bad man, I think you have gone straight." Joey glares at Lance.
Lance squats down to pinch Joey's face, "Then tell me, what's the meaning of go straight?"
Joey thinks for a moment, but she can't tell.
Lance pinches Joey's face again, which makes Alex a little bit angry.
"Don't rob our daughter for losing Miya."
He also knows that Joey looks very much like Miya. She used to look more like him. But In recent years, she’s looking like her mom a little more every day. "..." Lance's eyes roll up silently. "Am I such a person?"
He pats Joey's little head again and stands up, "To avoid your doubts, I'm going to... leave here."
"Uncle Lance, are you leaving?" Joey asks, holding Lance's hand.
"Yes, are you reluctant to let me go?" Lance asks.
Joey thinks for a moment, shaking her head decisively, then lets go of Lance's hand.
This is really an unexpected contrast, but Lance doesn't care either. After saying goodbye to them, he leaves.
Joey looks at Lance's back in deep thought. She just called him bad man. Why does she feel a little bit reluctant at this time? Is it because Lance really handsome? Unlike her dad's cool handsomeness, Lance is the kind of gentle person who seems to have no offensive power but can attract you with an eye contact.
Miya is looking at her daughter silently and of course sees her abnormality, but she doesn't say anything.
Originally, it is not a serious problem. After a day of observation in the hospital, Miya strongly requests to be discharged.
Miya’s attitude is tougher than Alex’s, so he can only agree to her request.
After going back, Miya can hardly rest. Sometimes she wipes the table, sometimes she sweeps the floor.
Alex is startled when he sees it, and quickly grabs her hand. The table and floor are completely cleaned by him.
When Miya appears with a basket of clothes, Alex quickly grabs it, "honey, can you let me rest for a while."
Miya is displeased, "I will wash, but you won’t."
Alex is speechless, "I feel like I'm feeling strong all over again, and I'll wash the clothes immediately."
The children are laughing at him about being a henpeck. Although Alex hears it, he doesn't have the energy to refute it.
"Is your family so happy every day?" Gogo looks at all this with sadness flowing through his eyes.
He still remembers that the family seemed to be happy before except his mother’s laziness, making him never feel the warmth of the family. He only being laughed at by having no father, and he fights back at that time.
He also remembers that when he wins the fight, the mothers of the other children sue his mother, who apologize gently and politely, but when she returns home, she shouts and yells at him.
