Rules of Engagement

Fred turned to look at the flowers on the bedside table and asked, "Has Susie been here?"

"What? Well, yes. Mom came here just now. " Elsa was stunned and realized that he was referring to Susie.

"Only she likes doing this." His tone was serious and critical, but Elsa always felt that there was a trace of pampering in it.

The atmosphere was still very tense. Elsa greeted grandpa Wang and Granny Wang briefly. Fred's cold and hard temper, and his repeated answers were "Good", making the conversation become more and more difficult.

Finally, Elsa was relieved. Seeing that Soren came in with water, he understood what Elsa meant and poured a cup of tea for Fred.

Elsa felt that she was really tired because of her illness... She didn't want to get sick again.

After Soren came in, the atmosphere became colder. Even Elsa could feel the coldness, like a tangible object, slowly filling the whole room. Fred took the cup and took a symbolic sip, "Have a good rest. I'm leaving."

"Bye." Soren nodded and watched his father walk out of the door.

Elsa felt that he was also relieved. He turned around, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They looked at each other and burst into laughter. Soren said crossly, "I say, he did not come to visit the sick, but to make me sick."

"Is he always so serious?" Elsa asked curiously.

"I haven't seen him smile anyway. I don't know why he has such a bitter expression. When I first saw him in my childhood, I was so scared that I cried and wanted to leave. I cried and called Uncle Heather. He took off his shoes hit me... It seems that I am not his biological son. Later, grandfather also took off his shoes and beat him hard... As if he is not his biological son. " Speaking of that family, it was the first time that Soren had such a relaxed expression and tone.

Thinking of that, Elsa couldn't help but laugh. "Is the Wang clan's glorious tradition?"

"I won't hit my own child with my shoe. I will be desperate to love him." His face softened at the mention of the future baby.

Elsa blushed and said with a smile, "It seems that grandpa and grandma treat you well."
