Chapter 209 Uncle Si, Are You Lovesick? (2)
"Really?" Gu Can suddenly lifted her head, her big round black eyes widened in surprise, looking at Mi Jing with great joy. Ever since being called a "stupid" by Su Xiaoyan, Gu Can’s self-esteem had taken a huge hit. Although everyone always praised her for being cute and pretty, deep down, she longed for people to praise her intelligence. This was the reason she tried to learn dancing and painting. She wanted to be like her brothers, to have at least one amazing skill that could astonish people.
"Of course it’s true, Auntie never lies to children." Mi Jing reassured her with a smile.
Upon receiving Mi Jing’s affirmation, Gu Can’s eyes brightened up even more. But the next second, she lowered her head and glanced at Kabi lying on the floor, her eyes dimmed as she softly said, "Auntie, I always cause trouble, I’m not a good kid."
Ah?
Cause trouble?
What kind of trouble?
Mi Jing’s mind immediately filled with a big question mark, very puzzled. But seeing Gu Can’s frustrated look, Mi Jing kept her kind smile, gently rubbed Gu Can’s little head, and said, "Causing trouble doesn’t necessarily mean you’re not a good child. Auntie used to cause trouble a lot when she was as young as Cancan."
Hearing Mi Jing say this, Gu Can felt she had found a soulmate, her frustration instantly vanished, and she asked Mi Jing with interest, "Really? Auntie was like Cancan too? Did Auntie get scolded by her mom?"
"Yes, Auntie’s mom was very stern when she was angry. Whenever Auntie did something wrong, she would be punished by being made to stand still!" Thinking of her childhood, Mi Jing’s clearest memory was the scenes of being punished by Fang Qingru standing in the corner.
Suddenly, a cheerful smile appeared on Gu Can’s little face. She immediately leaned close to Mi Jing’s ear and whispered, "Auntie, Cancan’s mom is very fierce when she gets angry too."
