Chapter 218 - 218: It’s Wrong to Hit Someone
Old Madam Walton stood at the door and waited. Finally, Amelia returned. She hurriedly reached out to catch Amelia, who had gotten out of the car, and said with heartache, “Mia, come over quickly. Come and let Grandma take a look. Does the wound on your face still hurt?”
Amelia shook her head. “It doesn’t hurt anymore!” However, the wound was covered in iodophor. It looked red and a little scary.
Old Madam Walton felt stifled. The last time Alex took Amelia away, she injured her forehead and applied a large amount of iodophor. Now that it was her first day in kindergarten, her face was also covered in iodophor.
Amelia did not care about the wound on her cheek. Instead, she stretched out her hand to show off to Old Madam Walton. “Grandma, look, I got a lot of rewards!” There was a “You’re so awesome” pasted on her forehead, and two thumbs-up on the back of her left hand. There were two Elsa stickers on the back of her right hand.
Amelia acted as if she had won a grand prize and showed them to her family one by one. She did not even let go of the parrot, Seven. “Seven, look. I got a lot of stickers. Do you know? Only children who perform very well have this sticker. I’m amazing, right?!”
Seven flapped his wings and praised, “Impressive, impressive!”
Amelia was extremely happy. She could not bear to tear off the sticker when she was showering. In the end, Alex brought a notebook over and specially collected stickers for her. Under each sticker, Amelia had to explain, “This was
because I was the loudest when the teacher called out names. Ms. Rose rewarded me.”
Alex held a pen and made a note under the sticker. “Loudest during roll call. Reward: one sticker.”
Amelia added, “This is for finishing lunch first and clearing the plate. Teacher rewarded it.”
Alex hummed and wrote, “First place in the meal. Reward.”
Amelia: “This sticker is because I helped the teacher arrange the small chairs…”
Alex: “Teacher’s good helper…”
The father and daughter lay on the desk, one talking and the other writing. They were extremely serious.
In the blink of an eye, it was nighttime. When Alex coaxed Amelia to sleep, he asked in a low voice, “Mia, do you think Dad did the right thing today?”
Amelia thought for a moment and said, “It doesn’t seem right to hit someone.” However, she had also hit someone. She couldn’t ask her father to do something she hadn’t even done, right?
Alex patted Amelia’s head and said in a low and pleasant voice, “Yes, Mia is right. It’s wrong to hit people. However, you have to have different methods for different people. Some people have to use other methods if you can’t reason with them. People can’t be too inflexible and be controlled by all kinds of rules, understand? You have to learn to be flexible.’
Amelia nodded as if she understood.
Alex did not expect Amelia to understand too much now. He was someone who had crawled out of the darkness. He understood better than anyone how dirty the back of this bright world was and how complicated human nature was. He hoped that his precious daughter would have the consciousness to protect herself while being kind. She would not take the initiative to bully others, but she would not be bullied either. She just had to be a straightforward and happy little girl.
After Amelia slowly fell asleep, Alex stood up, stretched, and quietly went out.
Elmer Stevens, who had been resting with his eyes closed in midair, opened his eyes and said, “You said that you were worried about Mia’s father. Have you seen him now?”
Helena’s eyes were dark like a ball of ghost fire. “Yes…”
Elmer Stevens: “Are you relieved? You can reincarnate now, right?”
Helena discussed with Elmer Stevens pitifully, “Brother, Brother! Can’t we discuss it anymore? It’s fine if you let me transmigrate with my memories. If not, we can start with the fertilized egg!”
Elmer Stevens: “…” He was so angry that he was about to laugh!
Elmer Stevens: “Do you really think there’s a transmigration existence? You’ve read too many novels!”
Helena: “But when I was alive, I didn’t believe that there were ghosts in this world either. But look, aren’t there ghosts?”
Elmer Stevens:
Helena said pitifully, “What did I do wrong? I’m just a pitiful mother who wants to be with her daughter.”
Elmer Stevens:
Helena: “You’re too bad. You’re a bad ghost. You didn’t even give us a chance to meet Mia and her daughter!” Her eyes flickered with tears. She blinked her eyelashes and tears fell. “Boohoo… I’m so pitiful. Mia is so pitiful… Boohoo…”
Elmer Stevens covered his forehead. “Please, your acting desire is too strong..”
