CHAPTER 313 HAVING A MEAL TOGETHER.
If others didn’t know Annie well, they would definitely feel her cute when they saw her confused looks at the moment. But Alan Hoyle had already learned about her mischief. If she really played tricks on others, she would definitely make them feel helpless.
Why did he have a little naughty daughter? But he still loved her and cherished her. When Alan heard she called him "Uncle", he couldn't help but frown, "Why are you still called me uncle? Call me Dad."
Annie smiled, "Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle..."
The little girl called him uncle on purpose. Olive Steele just watched them but didn’t help one of them. Looked at Annie and Alan, she just felt funny. It was said that the daughter was the lover of the father in the previous life. Annie must be Alan’s quarrelsome lover.
"Baby, you break your promise. You said as long as I marry your Mommy, you call me Daddy. Now, you break your promise." Alan Hoyle began to educate his daughter.
But his daughter was smart. She was not afraid of him at all.
"If you two get married, it should have a wedding. I saw it from the TV. Mommy should wear a beautiful wedding dress. You two should swear in front of Jesus and the priest. You two also have to exchange rings and drink cross-cup wine."
Annie was only five years old. She didn’t know exactly the difference between Chinese and Western weddings yet.
Alan Hoyle laughed. He looked at Annie and Olive. Little girl was good. She knew to protect her mother. She was worried that he would make her mother feel wronged.
His little wife had suffered a lot. How could he continue to make her sad?
There would be a wedding.
"So, baby, are you going to be our little flower girl on the wedding day?"
"Of course, do you think there is a more suitable candidate than me?" The little girl hummed softly, showing her determination.
The father and daughter quarreled with each other all the way. The car stopped in front of an elegant and quiet restaurant. The decoration of the restaurant was simple but elegant.
When Olive Steele was unbuckling the seat belt, Alan Hoyle got out of the car. He walked to her side to open the door for her, bowing slightly, "I am honored to invite the two beautiful ladies to have lunch."
Annie was still lying in the arms of Olive Steele. She corrected him, "Mommy is a big beauty. I am a little beauty. You are an old man."
The corners of Alan Hoyle’s mouth twitched. He touched his own face. Was he old? Although he was a little more serious, it didn't affect his handsome. Was Annie reminding him that he was six years older than his little wife? Did he have a generation gap with his young wife? Alan Hoyle felt depressed.
After Annie finished speaking, she jumped out of the car. She walked ahead with cheering.
Olive Steele and Alan Hoyle walked side by side. She whispered to his ears, "You are not old. You’re attractive. I like this style."
Alan Hoyle felt excited. His arms which put around his wife's waist became tighter. He sighed in his heart. No matter how appearance or the world changed, as long as Olive still loved him, he would feel satisfied.
They found a table. Before they could sit down, Annie suddenly called, "Aunt Xiaoyun."
Olive Steele looked up. The waitress who was walking towards them was Dan Dan's mother, Li Xiaoyun.
Li Xiaoyun obviously didn't expect it to be them. The smile froze on her face for a while, but she quickly returned to calm, "Hello, Mr. Alan, Miss Olive and Annie."
Alan Hoyle nodded slightly. Olive Steele smiled, "I didn't expect you to work here."
Li Xiaoyun smiled and said, "I have no other skills. I can only do this kind of work."
It sounded like self-ridicule, but what she showed was neither humble nor pushy.
Olive Steele liked the woman with such a temperament, "You’re working to feed yourself. That is good."
"Thank you. Then what do you want to eat?" Li Xiaoyun gave them the exquisite menu. During working hours, she didn’t allow to talk much with customers. Besides, if a family of three had meal together, they definitely didn't want to be disturbed by outsiders.
Alan Hoyle let Annie and Olive choose. His affectionate gaze softened his coldness.
Li Xiaoyun thought, “It's great for a woman to have such a man loves her and a daughter to have such a father spoils her. This man made a high-profile declaration of his love on the Internet, as if all blocking forces could not shake his determination to be with the girl he loved.”
Such an affectionate man was so charming. Even she glanced at him a few more glances unconsciously. Olive Steele was really a lucky woman. She finally got the happiness this man gave to her after years of tolerance and perseverance. Looking back at herself, she couldn’t help feeling sad. The man she loved didn’t know that she loved him. Maybe he knew, but he just pretended not to know it.
Not all people who had neither complaints nor regret for love could wait for the person to look back. Perhaps, it was the fate.
When Li Xiaoyun was lost in thought, Olive Steele had already said several dishes’ names. Seeing that Li Xiaoyun did not respond, Olive called her name several times. Only then did Li Xiaoyun take back the thoughts, she reacted and wrote down the dishes of Olive Steele ordered, and then apologized for her distraction, "Excuse me, please wait for a moment."
Olive Steele looked thoughtfully at Li Xiaoyun’s leaving back. This woman had something on her mind. There was an unspeakable sadness in her eyes. Probably, she had her own story. Content © copyrighted by .
Just when Olive Steele was about to look away, suddenly she saw three people enter the restaurant.
Annie stood up and waved, "Godfather, Big Beard, sister Xenia."
Alan Hoyle frowned slightly. He turned his head to look. Annie's greeting attracted the attention of the three people. They turned around and walked towards them. Maybe this meal couldn’t be happy.
