Chapter 285 Mind Acts upon Mind
Bright was very displeased by Rose's "perfunctory" attitude. He squinted at Rose for one second, two seconds, three seconds...
Rose felt uncomfortable, and when she tried to get away from him, she was held tight to her waist by him, "Do you think that's a good reason or do you think I'm easy to be fooled?"
"Rose, is it so hard to tell the truth? Sophie has talked about what has happened five years ago, and you wouldn't even tell me that I am Doris's real father until I do a paternity test!"
"You also said you would make it up for me, but the result was that you left me a divorce agreement and then disappeared with my daughter... Rose, my patience is wearing thin. If you don't tell me the truth, I'll ask him. Anyway, I'll know what I want to know."
Bright released his hand and Rose felt the strength disappear from her waist.
Bright stopped looking at her and walked to the back room. Rose stood still and hesitated for two seconds. "Bright, I'll tell you."
She didn't want to know what Sky's answer would be, but it was better for her to say it than for Sky.
Bright stopped walking and looked back, looking at her calmly.
Rose stepped forward, her fingers clutching at her pants. "I can tell you, but not until after dinner."
"Why?" Bright eyebrows raised his eyebrows.
"There is no reason. That's it." Rose lowered her eyelids and walked past him.
Bright let her go. He did not press her any further and followed her at a leisurely pace.
Doris's eyes lit up when she saw Bright, and she ran up to him eagerly and said, "Daddy."
Bright was also very happy when he saw Doris. He bent down to Doris as she came running towards him. "My girl, do you miss Daddy?"
"Yes, I miss you very, very much." Doris put her arms around Bright's neck.
"How much did you miss me?" Bright pinched her little nose.
Doris hugged Bright and kissed him on the cheek with her pink little mouth. "Just like this."
Bright, amused by Doris's quirkiness, said, "Then why didn't you call me?"
"I wanted to call you, but Mom's cell phone fell into the water and broke." Doris looked sad, "And grandfather doesn't have a cell phone. I can't remember the number so I can't use the landline."
"So I kept praying for my father to come to me and my mother. I had a dream about you last night, but I didn't expect my father to come today. Dad must have felt my wish, right? There is an old saying that the mind something... mind..."
"Mind acts upon mind." Bright said.
"Yes, yes, that's it. Dad is so great! Were you a straight-A student before?" Doris looked at Bright with adoration.
"Not bad." Bright wasn't too proud. "You are my daughter, of course you are excellent, too." he said. "You have all my good genes."
"Doris, time for dinner." Rose called to her.
By this time, dishes and bowls had been set on the table in the main room, and Rose was setting chopsticks.
"Dad, let's have dinner in the main room." Doris wanted to get down.
"I take you there." Bright walked over with Doris in his arms.
Grandpa and Sky came out of the kitchen and went to the main room. Grandpa looked at Rose with puzzled eyes when he saw a strange man in the house and held Doris in his arms.
"Grandpa, this is my father." Doris introduced Bright to grandpa, "Dad, this is Grandpa. You must go after Mom and call him Grandpa."
Bright seated Doris on a stool and then said respectfully, "Nice to meet you, Grandpa. I am Bright, Rose's husband, Doris's father and your grandson-in-law."
"So you are Doris's father." Grandfather looked carefully at Doris and then at Bright, and found that they were really alike. "Doris looks like you," he said. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Sure enough." Bright was proud of that.
"This is your first visit to the country, right?" Grandpa could see that Bright was a noble living in the city just like Sky. His bearing and temperament showed his unusual status.
"Yes, but I will come here again... I will come here often in the future. I just hope Grandpa won't mind it." Bright was eloquent, and said sincerely.
"Of course not. Welcome to come here often." Grandpa called to Bright, afraid of slighting him, "Bright, I'll call you Bright. Take your seat. And Sky, you too."
"You too, Grandpa." Both Bright and Sky respected the elders.
When Grandpa saw that they were not going to sit down, he had to sit down himself, then both of them and Rose seated themselves.
Rose and Bright sat on both sides of Doris, while Bright and Sky sat on grandfather's left and right.
"It is the first time Bright came here. Just make yourself at home. Sky, you too. There is nothing to entertain you, and these are some simple dishes." Grandpa looked at the dishes on the table and felt he hadn't treated them well.
"We'll eat whatever you eat, Grandpa." Sky comforted him.
"Grandpa, there is meat and vegetables here, and wine is a good match with the dishes." Bright looked at Grandpa, "Do you drink?"
Grandfather nodded, "I don't have any hobbies, except work and a drink to relieve my fatigue."
"Then I'll have a drink with you tonight." Bright turned to Rose and said, "Rose, go and get the wine."
"I made that wine myself. Would you drink it?" Grandfather pointed to the wine on a cabinet in the corner of the main room.
The glass bottle was filled with red dates, wolfberries and ginseng, and the liquor had turned yellow.
"Any wine will do." Bright said.
Rose went to get the wine. She took two glasses and handed them to Bright. Bright put one glass in front of Grandpa while the other one in his hand.
He looked at Sky and smiled, "Sky, we rarely stay together. Since we've come here, how about we accompany grandpa to drink?"
"Of course I'd love to." Sky did not expect that Bright would change his address in front of grandfather.
Bright gave the glass of wine to Sky and then asked Rose to get another one.
Bright and Sky toasted to Grandpa and then they drank first.
Grandfather was delighted, and took a sip. "This house hasn't been this lively since your grandmother left. She'll be happy to see them. Both of her granddaughters are married, and she has such good grandsons-in-law. It's such a delight to have a drink with you."
