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

Izuki wasn't angry at all. She was looking down, trying to figure out what was wrong. It tasted just right to her, so why was it so cloying? Could it be that Kyoko and Reina couldn't eat sweet things?

"How could that be?" Yi Yue muttered to herself.

Rena casually remarked, "Dad, could it be that you like sweet things and have a strong palate?"

"Huh?" Itsuki scratched her cheek. Clearly, Reina had guessed correctly.

Rena said, "Hehe, could I have guessed right? Daddy likes sweets." She pinched Izuki's cheek with her little hand, "Why are you acting like a little kid?"

Xingzi asked, puzzled, "How can eating sweets be like a child's?"

“Because kids love sweets the most!” Rena said. “Hmph, why is Daddy like a child, eating too many sweets? Be careful he doesn’t get diabetes.”

Izuki didn't know what to say, and could only give an awkward laugh. Reina's words about him in front of Kyoko made him lose face and feel very embarrassed.

"Rena, how could you say such a thing about your father?" Kyoko said unhappily.

Rena stuck out her little tongue: "I don't care, Daddy is the best person."

Yi Yue smiled, "When will I show you when I'm in a bad mood?"

"Hmph, come on! Let me see what Daddy's temper looks like!" Rena said smugly, sticking her bottom out at Itsuki. "Will he spank me?"

Izuki pretended to be angry and lightly patted Rena's butt.

Rena pretended to cry out, "It hurts so much! Daddy's bullying me!" She closed her eyes and squirmed in the chair. After a few moments, she opened her eyes and laughed, "Hehehe."

Kyoko thought to herself with a touch of envy, "Rena and her father have such a good relationship." Then, remembering something, Kyoko lowered her eyes, her expression downcast.

Izuki wiped the cream off Rena's lips and then quietly watched Rena eat her cake.

After eating a few pieces, Rena couldn't eat anymore; she felt it was too greasy.

Yi Yue asked Xing Zi if she wanted more, but Xing Zi quickly waved her hand and said, "No, I can't eat anymore."

She had only eaten one piece of cake, and even that was only out of politeness; she barely managed to finish it. She didn't really like cream.

Izuki had no choice but to wrap up the rest of the cake and put it in the refrigerator. She saw Kyoko and Reina chatting happily.

Yi Yue smiled and said, "You two must be very good friends."

"Of course!" Rena snorted. "We're best friends!"

A little embarrassed, Kyoko gave a soft "hmm" and mustered up her courage to say to Itsuki, "Sometimes I feel like Rena is my little sister."

"Hey, that's not right! I'm the older sister!" Rena retorted stubbornly.

"Yes, so Reina is the older sister, right?" Kyoko said with a smile.

Seeing Kyoko say that, Rena felt embarrassed and whispered, "Actually, it's not that you can't be the older sister."

"Haha." Seeing Rena's adorable expression, Izuki laughed happily.

"What's so funny!" Rena bared her teeth at Izuki like a cat with its fur standing on end.

"Then I won't laugh anymore." Yi Yue suppressed her smile, but the corners of her mouth were still slightly upturned, carrying a hint of amusement.

"That's more like it!" Rena muttered.

"You two can chat anytime, I'm going back to my room first," Yi Yue said, heading upstairs. He knew his presence was making Xingzi and the others a little reserved, unable to say much. So he went upstairs to make it easier for them to chat.

After Izuki left, Kyoko whispered, "Rena, your father is really kind."

“Of course!” Although she didn’t know why Kyoko suddenly said this, Rena was still very happy to hear Kyoko praising her father, and said proudly.

The two went back to their room and chatted until noon.

After bringing Yixue back and finishing cooking, Yiyue came to Reina's room and called them down: "Reina, come down for dinner."

Rena lay on the bed, while Kyoko sat obediently to her side.

"I know." Reina stood up and said.

Izuki said gently to Kyoko, "Why don't you stay for lunch?"

Xingzi hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "My grandma should have finished cooking."

"Then just call home and say you're not eating," Rena said, puzzled. She could eat at home anytime, and he didn't come to her house every day. Couldn't he just stay and have a meal with her?

Xingzi shook her head, indicating no, and said apologetically to Yiyue, "Uncle, I'm so sorry."

"It's alright, my family has already cooked dinner. They'd be upset if I didn't go back. I'll talk to them beforehand next time and then you can come to my house as a guest," Yi Yue said with a smile, showing her understanding.

"Yes!" Kyoko nodded emphatically.

"Hey, it's a deal! Don't stand me up!" Rena said.

"Don't worry, next time I come to your house, I'll talk to Grandma in advance and ask her not to cook for me," Xingzi promised, then said to Yiyue, "Uncle, I'll be going now."

"How about I drive you home?" Yi Yue said.

Xingzi said, "Thank you, Uncle, but no need."

Izuki thought Kyoko was just being polite, so she asked several more times, but Kyoko refused each time.

After going downstairs, Yixue saw Xingzi and smiled, "Hello, Xingzi."

"Okay, hello Sister Yixue, I'll be going now, let's chat again next time," Xingzi said.

Yixue said, "Aren't you going to stay for a meal before you leave?"

"No need." Kyoko smiled and shook her head, then walked to the door and said, "Goodbye."

"Okay, goodbye." Yi Yue and the others said goodbye.

Izuki said to Reina, "Aren't you going to see them off?"

Rena nodded, put on her shoes, and followed him out.

Xingzi said, "No need!"

"It's alright, let's go," Rena said, seeing Kyoko to the bus stop. She waited until the bus arrived and watched Kyoko board before heading back.

When I got home, Reina had already been served rice by Izuki.

Rena sat back down and ate her food, mumbling, "Mmm, so delicious, so fragrant." She ate very quickly, as if afraid someone would snatch it from her.

"Eat slowly." Itsuki smiled and asked Reina, "Are you and Kyoko close?"

"Why did Dad ask that?" Rena asked, puzzled, but still answered truthfully, "Of course it's good."

"Then you should cherish it," Izuki said, placing a chicken leg in Rena's bowl.

"Thank you, Dad," Rena said happily, munching on a chicken leg.

Izuki then asked Reina about Kyoko's studies in various aspects.

Rena knew some things and didn't know others, but she told her father everything.

"Treat others well, and help each other at school," Yi Yue instructed.

Rena thought to herself, "Even a three-year-old knows this, Dad is being nagging again." But she still said "oh" aloud.

"Mmm." Itsuki said happily, patting Rena's head.

……

That evening, Yi Yue squeezed a glass of fresh orange juice, put a piece of cake on a paper plate, and delivered it to Yi Xue's room.

Yixue sat at the table, reading an extracurricular book. The core subjects, which were quite stressful, had all been tested a few days ago, and the remaining subjects were basically not difficult.

Izuki placed the snacks on the table.

Yixue smiled and said, "Thank you, Dad." She took a small sip of orange juice.

Yi Yue asked, "We've almost finished all the exams. We'll have one last exam tomorrow morning, right?"

"Mm." Yixue nodded.

"Then let's go out for lunch tomorrow," Yi Yue said with a smile. "Let's go to Zuo Hai for a buffet."

“Okay.” Yixue nodded happily.

Suddenly, Yi Yue remembered something. "By the way, did the teacher arrange a gathering for lunch tomorrow?"

On the last day of graduation, teachers usually organize students to have a meal. After the meal, students usually spontaneously organize to go to an internet cafe or a karaoke bar.

"If the teacher has arranged a meal, then let's go eat tonight, or tomorrow," Yi Yue said with a smile.

Yixue said, "No, the teacher didn't arrange it."

"Huh, no plans?" Yi Yue was a little surprised. When he was in junior high school, there were always graduation dinners planned.

"Yes, the teacher didn't notify us." Yixue smiled. Actually, the teacher had mentioned using the class meeting funds to arrange a graduation dinner.

……

"Finally, the exams are over!" the students at the school gate shouted excitedly, feeling relaxed and liberated.

"We're going to Chenghui Pedestrian Street, to have barbecue at Allang's place," the teacher said with a smile. "You all probably told your families you weren't going home for dinner, right?"

"Yay, barbecue!" "It's all settled!" "Don't worry, teacher!"

The students cheered joyfully.

Yixue walked up to the teacher and whispered, "Teacher, can I not go?"

"Why?" the teacher asked curiously.

"I have something to do at noon and need to go back," Yixue apologized.

"But this is the last dinner together. There won't be another chance," the teacher advised.

"I'm sorry, but I really have something to do," Yixue said, sounding embarrassed.

The teacher sighed, "Alright, you can go now."

"Thank you, teacher," Yixue said, walking towards the intersection ahead where Yiyue had parked her car.

"Sigh..." The teacher sighed, feeling that without the class monitor, without people, the meal was half as fun.

Yixue glanced back at the students lining up, her smile slowly fading as she whispered with disgust, "Goodbye." Then, a sickly smile slowly returned to her face, her cheeks flushed, "Going to have dinner with Dad."
