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

“Comic conventions, that’s normal,” Yi Yue said.

Yi Xue said sweetly, "Yes, it's because Daddy is so handsome." She leaned her head on Yi Yue's shoulder and smiled happily.

This place annoyed Yixue; staying by her father's side was definitely the happiest place for her.

When Makise saw Yixue leaning against Yiyue, his expression changed slightly. He forced a smile and walked over.

"Have you finished buying everything?" Yi Yue asked.

Makise Titi carried the bag in his hand.

"Have you seen Rena?" Izuki asked, glancing at her phone. It was already 1 p.m., and she hadn't had lunch yet.

"No." Makise shook her head. Itsuki called Reina, wanting to ask where she was.

As soon as I dialed the number, I heard the familiar ringtone.

When Izuki turned around, she saw Reina right behind her, with a boy dressed as Edward standing next to her.

"This is my dad, this is my mom, this is my sister." Makise introduced them one by one, and also introduced the boy cosplaying Edward to Itsuki, "This is a friend I just met."

Izuki and the others smiled at the boy, who seemed a little reserved. He glanced at Rena and thought to himself, "Rena's family is so beautiful."

The boy greeted Izuki and the others, chatted for a few words, and then left, saying, "My friends are nearby, I'm going to go find them too." He then said goodbye to Reina.

Chapter 117 Self-Reflection

"Rena, dinner's ready." Itsuki found a corner and took out a lunchbox from her backpack.

The lunchbox contained roasted chicken wings, coated with honey, roasted until golden brown and crispy, oozing with oil, and smelling delicious, making one's mouth water.

Izuki took out disposable gloves and distributed them to everyone. Rena put on the gloves and eagerly picked up a chicken wing. This chicken wing was very big, about half the size of Rena's palm.

The aroma was irresistible, and Rena couldn't resist taking a big bite.

Just as she was about to take a bite, Yi Yue stopped her, saying, "Don't eat yet, take out the toothpicks first." She removed the two toothpicks from the front wings.

Rena pulled out the toothpick with a puzzled look and asked, "Dad, why do you stick toothpicks in your chicken wings?"

"You'll know once you take a bite," Yi Yue said with a smile.

Rena took a small bite, tasted it, and her eyes lit up: "So sweet, so delicious." She felt the taste was fantastic, with a hint of sweetness, and couldn't help but take a big bite.

“This is…” Rena squinted her eyes, looking quite pleased, “So it’s chicken wing rice.”

"Is it delicious?" Yi Yue asked.

Rena nodded repeatedly, took another big bite, and mumbled, "Delicious!"

The chicken wings contain diced carrots and cucumbers, finely chopped shrimp, and rice. Combined, the originally slightly greasy chicken wings become not greasy at all, but rather even more delicious.

"Delicious!" Rena said again. If Rena were to rate the dish out of 10, she would give the chicken wing rice a 9.

This was something Yi Yue made especially early this morning; she spent a long time preparing it. Worried about the inconvenience of eating at the anime convention, and considering that making boxed lunches was too much trouble and messy, she made chicken wing rice rolls instead.

Yi Yue made eight, two for each person. Each chicken wing was quite large, and with the rice inside, two were enough to fill you up.

"Yue's cooking is amazing." Makise said with a hint of jealousy, "But why didn't they have this skill when I went to the comic convention years ago? I had to eat boxed lunches for so long." She was a little jealous of her daughter, implying that Yi Yue didn't love her and only loved her daughter.

"It's not too late now," Izuki coaxed. While flirting with Makise, Rena had already finished two chicken wings and, looking at the remaining wings in the box, wanted to eat more.

"Aren't you full?" Itsuki could tell what Reina was thinking.

Rena nodded shyly.

Makise said, "Really? You're still hungry?"

Makise hasn't even finished one chicken wing rice bowl yet, while Rena has already eaten the whole thing. Even though the portion was already quite large, Rena is still hungry after eating.

Makise pinched Rena's little nose: "If you eat any more, you'll turn into a little pig."

Rena pouted and angrily slapped Makise's hand away: "You're the pig, you're the fat one!"

Makise was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Where is Mommy fat?"

Rena pointed and exclaimed, "This is fat, this is fat, this is fat. And you're talking about me!"

Makise laughed happily because of Rena's innocent words.

“This isn’t fat.” Makise gave Izuki a charming look. “Right, Izuki?”

"Ignore your mother," Yi Yue said irritably, picking up the lunchbox. "You can have this."

"Moon, you haven't eaten yet," Makise said.

Rena immediately withdrew her hand, which she had originally intended to take.

"Rena, you eat," Izuki said.

Rena shook her head and said softly, "Daddy hasn't eaten yet."

"It's okay, I ate a bit too much this morning, so I'm not particularly hungry now." Seeing that Rena still didn't move, Izuki said, "How about this, you eat one and leave one for me. I don't have a big appetite, one is enough for me." As she spoke, she took a chicken wing, took a bite, and smiled as she handed the lunchbox to Rena: "Eat it, it's okay."

Rena hesitated, then slowly took the chicken wing and took a small bite.

Izuki smiled at her, and Rena blushed slightly. She lowered her head and ate the chicken wing in small bites, a complete contrast to her earlier ravenous eating.

"Next time we go out, I need to prepare more food. I knew Reina had a big appetite, but I only made two," Izuki thought to herself.

“Dad…” Rena was deeply moved and felt that she must repay Izuki in the future.

"Moon," Makise whispered in Izuki's ear, pointing to the remaining chicken wing, "You eat half, and I'll eat half." Her face flushed, and she spoke in a girlish manner.

Yi Yue smiled and said, "Okay." The two of them sweetly ate half a chicken wing.

Yixue clutched the last chicken wing in her lunchbox without saying a word.

She originally wanted to share her chicken wings with her father, but Makise beat her to it.

"Oh, right." Yi Yue remembered she had some fruit in her bag, so she took out a small bag of cherry tomatoes and shared them with everyone. The cherry tomatoes were to cut through the richness of the chicken wings and quench their thirst.

After a short rest, I felt refreshed and went back to the anime convention. I didn't finish until 7 p.m.

The one who benefited the most from this trip was probably Rena.

Makise and Itsuki had been to many anime conventions, so they were used to many things.

But for Rena, everything was new and exciting. She looked around, took lots of photos, and bought a lot of things.

"You must be tired," Yi Yue said to Yi Xue, feeling sorry for Yi Xue.

Yixue couldn't fit into the atmosphere of the comic convention at all, and didn't understand what was so fun about it, especially since everyone around her was laughing so happily.

"I'm not tired at all, it's quite fun." Yi Xue smiled and took Yi Yue's hand. For her, being with Yi Yue meant she was never bored.

"Let's get in the car," Yi Yue said, and everyone got in.

On the way, Rena, sitting in the back seat, fiddled with the things in the bag. She had gained a lot from this trip.

"Hehe." Rena laughed happily.

Yi Xue glanced at her, then looked away and said softly, "Childish." She looked at Yi Yue, who was watching the car ahead, and smiled again.

……

Back home, after dinner and a shower, Yi Yue felt completely relaxed, as if all her fatigue had vanished.

Rena went to Itsuki's room, gave Itsuki her phone, and asked Itsuki to save the photos and, if she had the chance, get them printed out as souvenirs.

"This one doesn't look good, this one doesn't look good either." Rena told Izuki to delete the group photos with many people.

Rena didn't actually want to take photos with those people, but she was having so much fun that she couldn't bear to refuse.

"The cosplay isn't good at all," Rena muttered.

Izuki was unhappy and said righteously, "Rena, it's very wrong of you to talk like that."

"What's wrong with it?" Rena didn't understand, feeling that she was right; it really didn't look good. She didn't understand why Itsuki was unhappy.

"Rena, when it comes to cosplay, looks don't matter," Izuki said gently.

Rena couldn't understand: "Cosplay has to look like the character, and it has to be pretty."

Yi Yue shook her head and said, "Whether it looks like the character or not doesn't matter. Your initial motivation for cosplaying this character was your passion and love for the character."

Reina let out an "oh," indicating that she understood somewhat.

Izuki patted Reina's head and said, "You've seen Ji Gong, right?"

"I've seen it," Rena said.

“Mr. You Benchang, who played Ji Gong, once said something that I think makes a lot of sense,” Yi Yue said. “He said, ‘You can love the role you play, but you can’t love the role you play yourself.’”

Chapter 118 Beautiful

Izuki said, "Rena, never forget your original intention in doing anything." Her words were loaded with meaning, a subtle way of educating Rena.

Rena understood and said seriously, "I understand, Dad. I will never say such things again." After hesitating for a moment, she said, "The photos, well, let's keep the photos." She muttered softly, "I won't take any more photos with them next time."

"Huh? What did you say?" Yi Yue asked.

Rena stuck out her tongue: "I didn't say anything, I'm leaving!" and ran out of the room.

"Really," Yi Yue said with a laugh.

"Moon." Makise came out of the bathroom, her hair wet and wrapped in a towel. "I heard everything you said, and it was very well said." She rubbed her hair. "Could you help me dry my hair?"

"Hmm." Izuki got up, dried Makise's hair, picked up a comb, and used a hairdryer to blow-dry and comb her hair.

Izuki's movements were gentle and meticulous. Makise thoroughly enjoyed it; with Izuki by his side, everything became much easier.

……

……

The next day, Makise, dressed in sportswear, woke Rena up and they went for a run together.

"No!" Rena refused and pulled the blanket over her head.

"Get up quickly." Makise pulled the blanket off.
