Chapter 13 Coco, His Child with First Love

At noon, the sun was warm. Edward Chen came to the gate of Ancheng City No. 2 Experimental Primary School and stood alone on a corner where he could see the gate but was not very noticeable. Ring ring ring. The school bell rang. With a burst of noise and laughter, school was over. "Goodbye, see you this afternoon." "Go together at noon." "Goodbye teacher." Groups of cute primary school students play around in front of the school, some took out snacks, and some held books, filling the air with a beautiful childhood atmosphere. Many parents were waiting anxiously in the crowd. As the children in the lower grades gradually leave, Edward's originally calm heart also rarely fluctuated. Wendy Yun talked with Edward. She did not completely believe in the events of the year, but she also expressed her gratitude for the protection at the banquet. It could be seen that after last night, the sister-in-law Wendy's hostility towards Edward had subsided a lot. Upon her notification, he knew that his own daughter Coco, the child Vivian Yun gave birth to, was in the fourth grade of this school. Edward's eyesight was enough to see and lock the movements of hundreds of people at the same time. Every child who walked out of the school was carefully identified. At last. A smile appeared on Edward's face. An angel-like little girl, wearing a light pink school uniform, short hair, fair skin, a round face with a nice smile, eyes shining like crystals, walked out with another female classmate. Edward knew at a glance that this was his daughter, Coco. The reason for recognizing her was simple. She looked so much like Vivian back then, just like pasting and copying. Having said that, Wendy was almost the same beauty. Coco’s classmate was a cute girl with two croissant braids. They looked very happy, talking and laughing. Walking to the gate, the parents of the girl with croissants showed up and greeted Coco with a smile. They seemed to be familiar with each other. "Coco, I will go home then, bye." "Goodbye, Leilei." After the two little girls were separated, Coco stood alone on the side of the road, waiting for someone to pick her up. Edward tidied his clothes a little, and walked forward slowly. Coco also noticed this strange man approaching herself. Seeing the other person slowly approaching her, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous and back up two steps. Edward's expression was startled and he smiled helplessly. "Coco, right? I'm your aunt's friend. She asked me to take you home today. You can call her to confirm. My name is Edward." Coco's big eyes flickered, full of doubts, and she dialed Wendy's number. "Okay, Auntie, I know, I will let this uncle take me home." Hanging up the phone, raising her head, looking at Edward, she gave a sweet smile. "Uncle Chen, thank you." Seeing the cuteness of the daughter in front of him, Edward's heart was very complicated. A close relative who hadn't seen in ten years, she was his own blood. When meeting again, Edward had a strange feeling. The happy thing was that Coco grew up safely and healthily, and she looked very well-behaved and sensible. What’s worrying was that he had many entanglements with Yun Family. Before the misunderstanding was resolved, he didn't know how to tell her the truth directly. So he could only meet her first as a "auntie’s friend". Yun Family now lived not too far from the school, so they walked home. Edward spent most of his life in battle, and he was not very good at communicating. But in the face of his own biological daughter, Edward always had endless interesting things to talk, and his intimidating aura that would have been emitted unconsciously had disappeared at this moment. Coco listened to Edward telling stories about the various thrills he experienced in the west in the early years. She also thought this strange uncle was very funny and laughed like silver bells from time to time. "Uncle, did you catch the villain who stole the national treasure?" "Of course, that bad guy has the ability to climb the mountain as flexible as a monkey. The snow-capped plateau at an altitude of 5,000 meters only cost him a day and a night." "Unfortunately, he is not uncle's opponent. I flew from the mountains with the airflow in a flying wing suit for five hours before catching up with him, and then knocked him down." "Wow! Uncle, you are so amazing!" Hearing his daughter's praise, Edward felt an incomparable warmth in his heart. "Coco, do you have any training courses? Are you busy with homework?" "Of course there are! Martial arts, fighting, judo, darts, archery, single-handed sword, I can do it all!" Edward was stunned. Were these courses that little girls should be interested in? "...Why would your aunt give you this?" "I think it's interesting. I have to report it to my aunt. I'm very talented. Most people can't get close to me. I can aim a target from a hundred steps away with darts!" Edward felt a little confused in his head and couldn't help pressing his forehead. Was it possible that martial arts could be inherited? "Then...Is there any, literature and art?" Coco pursed her mouth. "Yes, but I don't like them, though my aunt forced me to learn, piano ten-level, violin ten-level, and painting professional. Although the teacher praised me, I always think it's meaningless." Edward was speechless. This girl, martial arts and fighting weapons, also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy. Were children so good now? A strong sense of pride suddenly surged in his heart. Such a girl was her own daughter, he was so proud. Passing a street shop, Coco's eyes suddenly couldn't move away. "Ancestral Sword Monopoly of Sale?" Edward saw this sign, and she shook her head helplessly. Coco stared at an antique sword on the shop window for a long time, and realized that Edward was still next to her, and then reluctantly retracted her gaze. Before leaving, she looked back several times. It seemed that this little girl was really interested in things related to martial arts. They talked and laughed, and they came to Yun Family Courtyard all the way. Yun Family now lived in a quiet and rich area in Ancheng City. The community was fully enclosed and very safe, with 24-hour surveillance and patrol security. Standing at the gate of the community, Edward touched Coco's little head. "Uncle sends you here, now go home, your aunt is waiting for you." Coco blinked big eyes with an expression of disappointment. "Uncle, you are so funny, I like to stay with uncle, will you come to see me?" "Of course." "It doesn't count, hook our fingers." Coco stretched out her small hand, and Edward made an agreement with his daughter with mixed feelings. Seeing Coco waved to him after entering the community, Edward unconsciously smiled at the corner of his mouth, thought about it, and took out the phone from his pocket. "Hey, Wu Qi, help me buy some things..." ... In the evening, in the Yun Family Villa, Coco in pajamas was holding a big teddy bear. She watched her aunt Wendy tidy up the bed for her after busy schedule, without blinking her eyes. Wendy saw the child's expression a little strange, and hurriedly stretched out hands to take her temperature on the forehead. Everything was normal. "Coco, why are you staring at your aunt?" "Auntie, the uncle who sent me home at noon today is really just your friend?" Wendy felt nervous when she heard it, and her face became tense, afraid that the child might guess something. "...Of course he is, how could aunt lie to you?" Coco’s small round face flashed with an expression of "I guess you were lying", she looked strange. Wendy was a little distressed. "Why are you looking at me like this?" Coco grinned. "Hey, auntie, is that uncle Chen your boyfriend?" ...
