I looked at Xia Shi sitting opposite me again. Although Xia Shi was still smiling at this time, it was obvious that Xia Shi seemed to have no mood to continue eating and had not moved the chopsticks for a long time.

I sighed in my heart, thinking that it was not the time to ask such a question at the dinner table. If I had known, I would have asked Xia Shi to finish the meal and get off the table before asking Xia Shi.

I also put down my chopsticks and had no idea of ​​moving the food on the table again.

And the delicate-minded Xia Shi of course saw my movement, looked at me in surprise, and then said to me: "You have dinner quickly, I will tell you more later, and the food will be cold soon."

"I'm full." I replied with a smile at Xia Shi.

"Are you full? I didn't see how much you eat just now." Xia Shi continued to speak, obviously Xia Shi didn't believe what I said.

"Can I still lie to you on this question?" I replied.

"This... well, I'll clean up the dishes first, wait." Xia Shi was active. After saying that, she got up and wanted to clean up the dishes on the dining table into the kitchen and wash them off.

But I waved my hand to Xia Shi and said, "Let's put it here first. I'll go wash later. You are not the nanny I invited. How can you do anything? In this way, I can't get over it."

Xia Shi gave me a blank look and said angrily: "Where did you say? Aren't these things women should do? Since I am the only woman at home now, of course I have to do it."

I couldn't help but look at Xia Shi in front of me in surprise: "What do you say about this? Who did you learn from?"

"Aren't these all good traditions?" Xia Shi replied.

"This is the 21st century." I shrugged at Xia Shi helplessly.

"Don't people say that men and women are equal? ​​Why did it become like this when you get to you?"

"Hehe, I just said it casually. I don't do this kind of thing anyway, so you shouldn't do it anymore." Xia Shi smiled at me, and then he wanted to clean up the bowls and chopsticks on the table again.

I looked at Xia Shi helplessly and did not stop Xia Shi from acting anymore. However, I stood up and packed up the dishes on the table with Xia Shi and went into the kitchen, and washed the dishes with Xia Shi.

"I'll just come alone, you can go out quickly." Xia Shi did not refuse me to help her clean up the dishes, but when she saw that I wanted to wash the dishes with her, Xia Shi was a little unhappy.

"It's okay, just move your body so that you won't get moldy even if you stay at home." I smiled, and had no intention of leaving.

Xia Shi did not drive me away anymore, but instead divided the work with me. Xia Shi shampooed her hair and said, "I'll clean it and wash the dishes."

"Uncle Xia... haven't you told you about your life experience?" I thought about it, feeling that such an opportunity should not be wasted. While rinsing the dishes in my hand, I turned my head and continued to ask Xia Shi.

"I said it." Xia Shi turned her head and looked at me, and was happy to discuss such a problem with me.

"But my dad always said that he would tell me something I should know in the future. Even the incident in Hong Kong last time... my dad said the same thing, but my dad is gone now, and I don't know where he is now."

When Xia Shi said this, she felt a moment of trance again, and her actions of washing dishes gradually slowed down. It seems that my question has aroused Xia Shi's concern and longing for her father.

I also said it is difficult to understand the whereabouts of Xia Huanghe, and I cannot figure out what has caused Xia Huanghe to be hidden for so long. Xia Huanghe is unwilling to tell me the reason, so I naturally cannot study it in depth.

However, from the action of Xia Huanghe entrusting Xia Shi to me, I can see that Xia Huanghe also has the helplessness of Xia Huanghe.

I smiled warmly at Xia Shi beside me and said to Xia Shi in a comforting tone: "Don't worry, Uncle Xia is a good person, I think it's time for us to see Uncle Xia next time."

"Is it very soon?" Xia Shi turned her head and glanced at me.

"Actually, I have never known it before. After experiencing that incident, I realized that my father had been hiding for so long. For you and many people, Dad has been hiding for more than twenty years. So how long will Dad be hiding this time?"

"Uh...I think now that Uncle Xia has concerns, he will no longer have the idea of ​​hiding his identity all the time, right?" I thought about it, and then spoke in an uncertain tone.

"Concern? Are you referring to me?" Xia Shi turned her head, smiled and asked at me.

"Yes." I nodded for granted.

"Who else can you besides you? I think Uncle Xia still has to consider your feelings after all, otherwise Uncle Xia wouldn't entrust you to me so easily. How many parents in the world are willing to see their daughters for a long time?"

"But... I should have another sister, right?" Xia Shi hesitated for a while, then replied.

I couldn't help but be stunned, and my mouth opened at the same time to say something, but there was no sound.

What I said just now was slapped in the face by Xia Shi.

Xia Wanyu is also the daughter of Xia Huanghe, but... Has Xia Huanghe ever appeared in front of his daughter over the years?

"Dad is even willing to not appear in front of his daughter for so many years. I am also his daughter. I think there is nothing different in my father's eyes, right?" Xia Shi continued to add.

"This is different." I subconsciously said, I just wanted to comfort Xia Shi.

"What's the difference?" Xia Shi turned her head and looked into my eyes again.

I was speechless again and didn't know how to answer Xia Shi's question.

How should I answer? Should I say some reasons that may make Xia Wanyu heartbroken to comfort Xia Shi? This is not something I am willing to do.

Xia Shi seemed to understand what I was thinking at this moment, smiled at me again, and said slowly: "Don't worry, this matter is not that difficult to accept. I believe that my father has always had his own reasons. This reason has made his father persist for many years. Since he was very young, I knew that his father must be doing something I don't understand. He always interacted with people I don't know, but I can see that his father hated them afterwards, and his father didn't like to interact with these people."
