How to raise a father who is overly controlling of his daughter

Indeed, Yi Yue seems very gentle, speaks softly and slowly, and has a beautiful smile.

As Xingzi thought to herself, her face flushed slightly.

"Xingzi, where do you live?" Yiyue asked, turning her head.

Because Itsuki directly calls her Kyoko.

For some reason, Kyoko felt a little nervous because of the way she was addressed: "I live at... I live at..."

I'm not usually this nervous even when the teacher asks me a question, so what's wrong with me?

Suddenly, Kyoko felt a warmth on her small hand; it was Rena's small hand resting on the back of hers. She looked up and saw Rena smiling so brightly, it almost blinded her: "It's okay, what's there to be nervous about? Just say it. Don't worry about things that are too far away or that you're too embarrassed to say."

“Rena…” Kyoko was slightly touched and said with a soft “Mmm,” “I live in the Houpu area.”

"Houpu Street?" Yi Yue thought for a moment. It wasn't on the same route as her home. To get to Houpu Street, she would have to go around in circles to get home.

Kyoko, observing Izuki's troubled expression, realized they were probably on different paths, and immediately said to Rena, "Um... Rena, I suddenly remembered that I left my book in the classroom."

I didn't want to trouble Rena's father or put Itsuki in a difficult position.

"Oh, did you leave the book in the classroom? Which book is it? If it's not important, you can go to school to get it tomorrow. Anyway, no one will take it if it's in the classroom," Rena said nonchalantly.

"It's an English workbook, we need it for tonight's homework," Anzu said.

"What? Weren't we supposed to not need to use workbooks in class today? How come you left them in the classroom?" Rena pouted. "I just can't do anything with you. Hurry up and come back."

"Ah, Rena, are you going to wait for me?" Kyoko asked hesitantly. "Why don't you go ahead, Rena? You don't need to wait for me."

"Ah, it'll only be a little while." Rena waved her hand and smiled, revealing her little tiger teeth: "Go ahead, it's not like we can't wait."

“But…” Xingzi glanced hesitantly at Yixue Yiyue sitting in the front passenger seat.

"Huh?" Rena tilted her head, not understanding what Kyoko meant.

"Go ahead, it's alright," Yixue said with a smile as she turned around.

Yi Yue turned her head, smiled, and nodded at her.

"This……"

"Ugh..." Kyoko felt dizzy at the current situation. She just wanted to find an excuse to get off the bus so as not to trouble Reina's father.

She never expected to shoot herself in the foot. She hadn't left any books in the classroom.

Urged on by Rena, Kyoko reluctantly opened the car door and got out, glancing back hesitantly.

Rena smiled at her: "Hurry up!"

"Okay, I understand." Kyoko forced a smile. She felt her steps were weak and heavy.

Did I do something wrong?

Inside the car, Rena muttered to herself, "I thought I was the only one who would leave my book in the classroom, but I didn't expect Kyoko to do it too."

Yixue's smile widened as she leaned back in her chair. She understood Xingzi's thoughts, of course.

Izuki turned her head and asked with a smile, "Are you and Kyoko on good terms?"

“Yes, she’s my best friend!” Rena exclaimed, a bright smile on her face.

"Then you should cherish it." Yi Yue smiled, her tone filled with affection.

Although she didn't know why Itsuki suddenly said that, Rena didn't think much of it and still smiled and said, "Of course I will."

Izuki smiled along with Rena, as if she was happy for Rena.

About three or four minutes later, Xingzi pursed her lips and got into the car.

"So fast?" Rena blinked her small eyes in surprise.

Xingzi lowered her head and softly hummed in agreement.

She hadn't left any books in the classroom, and having been preoccupied with her thoughts, she wandered around the school before quickly arriving. She was worried that Rena and the others would be waiting too long.

Rena didn't pay attention to this small detail. Instead, she acted like a little adult and lectured Kyoko: "Be more careful next time. Don't leave your books in the classroom anymore."

Seeing Kyoko nod and not say anything, Rena felt a little smug. Usually, Kyoko was the one who taught her a lesson, and now it was finally her turn to teach Kyoko a lesson.

Izuki was driving in front and saw Rena's smug little face in the rearview mirror. She shook her head, feeling both annoyed and helpless.

Throughout the journey, Yiyue remained silent and did not ask Xingzi any questions, fearing that Xingzi might be nervous or overthink things.

Rena and Kyoko were left to chat happily.

Upon arriving at Houpu Street, Yi Yue turned around and asked, "Where do you live?"

"Let's stop at the alleyway ahead," Anzu said, as the car slowly pulled over to the side of the road.

Kyoko got out of the car and said to Rena and the others, "See you tomorrow, Rena; goodbye, sister; goodbye, uncle."

"Mm." Rena nodded.

Yixue smiled and said, "Goodbye."

"Okay, be careful on the road," Yi Yue said gently, waving her hand.

Kyoko waved and nodded, feeling touched as she thought, "Rena's family is so kind and gentle."

Chapter Thirty-Three: Make amends

Watching Xingzi walk away until she was completely out of sight, Izuki slowly started the car and drove off.

On the way home, Izuki said to Reina Yixue, "After you get home, you should finish your homework quickly."

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Yixue asked curiously from the passenger seat.

Reina, sitting in the back seat, also looked at Itsuki with a strange expression.

"We've run out of a lot of things at home, so we need to go to the supermarket to buy some more."

Yi Yue said, "You shouldn't stay at home all the time. Go out and get some exercise to relax."

We don't need to buy much at the supermarket. We mainly want Yixue and Lingna to go out for a walk, relax, and buy some things they like.

"Shall we go to the supermarket?" Rena exclaimed happily. Every time she went to the supermarket, she could buy a lot of delicious things, and she could also take the opportunity to have her dad take her to the bookstore to buy comics and novels.

Suddenly, Rena remembered something and whispered, "That father..."

"Hmm?" Izuki glanced at the shy Reina behind her, then immediately turned her attention back to the road ahead.

"Can we go out for dinner tonight?" Rena suggested softly.

Although Itsuki is a great cook, Rena just prefers to eat out.

For example, eating barbecue at a barbecue stall, various snacks at a roadside stall, hamburgers at KFC, or barbecue at a buffet.

She just loves eating high-calorie foods.

"Eat out? But the food is already cooked. And there's nothing good to eat outside."

Yi Yue said that he doesn't like eating out, because he feels that the food prepared outside is not nutritious or hygienic.

"Besides, aren't we going to the supermarket tonight? After you finish your homework, we'll eat out and it'll be very late. The supermarket closes at ten o'clock, will we have time to buy anything?"

"Hmm..." When Rena heard Izuki say that, she knew it was hopeless. She lowered her head unhappily and muttered something under her breath.

"Okay, next time, next time when we have time, Daddy will take you out to eat, okay?" Izuki comforted Reina.

"Really!" Rena's somewhat dim eyes suddenly brightened.

"When have I ever lied to you?"

"Wow, that's great! Daddy's so nice!" Rena exclaimed happily, her little tiger teeth showing as she smiled.

Yi Yue shook her head helplessly. She really couldn't understand why people would choose to eat junk food outside instead of having perfectly good meals at home.

I really don't understand what's so good about those junk foods.

He sighed, glancing at the cheerful Rena. "Eating it once in a while shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

Ignored, Yixue sat to the side with a smile, saying nothing. She glanced at Lingna, feeling very unhappy: "If I could, I would really like to give her some money so she can go out to eat. I'll stay at home and eat with my dad."

Yi Yue, who was smiling helplessly, suddenly noticed Yi Xue next to her, who was also smiling.

Yi Yue's smile slowly faded as she thought to herself, "If I chat with Reina like this, will I be neglecting Yi Xue?"

Most of the time, he only cared about Rena.

Because Rena was young and didn't understand things, most of the attention was focused on her.

Yixue is very smart, precocious and well-behaved. As the older sister, she rarely cares about Yixue to save herself a lot of trouble.

This made Yi Yue feel that she owed Yi Xue a lot and didn't know how to make it up to her.

“Yixue,” Yiyue suddenly said.

"Hmm, what's wrong, Dad?" Yixue smiled sweetly and tilted her head.

Yi Yue opened her mouth and said, "Don't overwork yourself."

There are so many things I want to say to Yixue, but I don't know what to say. Over and over again, only this one sentence comes to mind.

Yi Xue was slightly taken aback, then her heart slowly filled with joy. Her hands trembled slightly, and a gentle smile appeared on her face: "Yes, I understand."

I was incredibly excited: "Dad really cares about me!"

"Dad loves me...and I love Dad too."

"Dad is so gentle. His shy look when he wants to say something but can't is so cute."

"Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy..."

Yi Xue called out Yi Yue's name again and again in her heart, and the smile on her face grew brighter and brighter.

Yi Yue glanced at Yi Xue, who was smiling brightly beside her, and couldn't help but think, "Yi Xue is really sensible."

"Sigh, I really don't know how to make it up to her. She never had a mother's love growing up, it's probably all my fault."

As Yi Yue thought of something, her eyes slowly dimmed.

After driving for a while, I slowly arrived home.

He let Rena Iyuki get out of the car first, and then drove the car to the garage himself.
