Who asked you to be this filial, anyway?
And even if you were being filial, what the hell was with bringing back a rabbit? And one that huge... How did he... No, pfft, pfft, that wasn't the point.
Wang Shouzhe's face darkened as he roared, "Wang Lilong, your father is a man of upright integrity. Do you really think I'm that kind of person?"
Even Wang Shouzhe, who had always stood as steady as a deep pool and lofty mountain, could not bear this kind of deranged turn in the story.
"But Daddy, Moon Rabbit is very pretty," Wang Lilong said, looking aggrieved.
"No matter how pretty she is, she's still a rabbit... No, that's not it. Your father simply isn't that kind of person. This has nothing to do with whether she's a rabbit or not." Wang Shouzhe righteously refused Wang Lilong. "Long'er, remember this: your mother and I are bound by love stronger than gold, our affection as deep as the sea. Neither of us can tolerate so much as a grain of sand in the other's eyes. You're still too young to understand~"
The blade-like gaze at his back immediately softened somewhat after he said that.
"But Daddy, I often catch you two fighting," Wang Lilong said with a little grievance.
"Don't talk nonsense. When have your mother and I ever fought?"
"It happens all the time. Whenever I'm sleeping at the bottom of the lake beside Moon-Water Pavilion, I always hear..."
Before Wang Lilong could finish, Wang Shouzhe clapped a hand over her mouth. Then he exchanged a glance with the equally dark-faced Liu Ruolan. In the flash of a spark, they communicated.
"Can we still keep this child?"
"After all, she's the daughter we acknowledged. What else can we do?"
"What else? Beat her, obviously."
