Daddy Always Gets Jealous

After snatching up the gifts, he pulled out Che Huan’s phone from the bag, turned it on, and saw that there were still red envelopes left unclaimed, showing 188.

The little fellow glanced at Huo Jinbei, who hadn’t clicked yet, so he patiently refrained from clicking as well, knowing the last one is often the largest.

Looking down to see how much Grandma and his aunt had grabbed, the phone screen suddenly displayed ”Tata has claimed your red envelope. Your red envelope has been fully claimed”!

Who’s Tata?

Glancing upwards, he saw, ”Mr. Huo” has claimed your red envelope!

All kinds of frustration and suffocation! Opening the red envelope, he clicked to check everyone’s luck, and his aunt had grabbed first, only a mere 4.71. Grandma was second, a decent 119.41, but the third person was outrageous, having snatched 687.88.

Mr. Huo?

With pursed lips, he looked in Huo Jinnan’s direction and asked with a heart full of dismay, ”Dad, are you Mr. Huo?”

Standing there changing his shoes, Huo Jinnan responded, ”Hmm.”

After the frustration, came the heartache!

The little guy looked at Huo Jinnan, his mood utterly foul, ”You... When did you join the group?”

Having taken off his suit, Huo Jinnan handed it over to the housekeeper, ”On the way back.”

Such a coincidence?! Couldn’t it have been just a tad bit later?

The little fellow pouted, ”Who added you?”

Huo Jinnan glanced at Huo Jinxue’s direction, ”Huo Jinxue.”

”...”

Huo Jinxue was even more dismayed; such a huge red envelope, and she had grabbed only four! Four!

She looked over it several times, unable to accept that reality!

And indeed, there was no mistake!

Why did she recklessly add her second brother and sister-in-law? It was something she had specifically asked Yu Zimu about. In truth, she just wanted to test if they were still around, if they still remembered her birthday!

The little fellow took a glance at Huo Jinxue, feeling someone was being tormented; his poor Mimi was now in the pocket of the person least in need of money.

So, Tata was Huanhuan?

Such a weird name, why had Huanhuan chosen such an odd one?

He looked up at Huo Jinbei and asked softly, ”What does Tata mean?”

Huo Jinbei shook his head, ”It’s just a nickname; what meaning can it have.”

He looked up at Che Huan, ”Second sister-in-law, does your nickname have an origin?”

”...”

Che Huan glanced at the little fellow; it was a name she had chosen before.

Huo Jinnan stood to the side, his eyes resting on Che Huan, ”Have you been to Qinghai before?”

Che Huan nodded, ”Once.”

She didn’t mention it was four years ago when she went out to clear her head with Qiao Qiao. That was the fourth month after she had given birth to the little guy, and she was still unable to move past that sorrow. Hearing the story of the Ta’er Temple, she changed her WeChat nickname to Tata—Tata, seeing the pagoda was like seeing her son.

She hadn’t expected him to know, and looking back at Huo Jinnan, she felt a different kind of emotion.

Zhong Qin, who was listening on the side, quickly understood and said with a smile, ”Huanhuan, it’s all in the past.”

Che Huan smiled at Zhong Qin and nodded, ”Mom, thank you.”

Huo Jinbei and Huo Jinxue looked at each other, wondering what was going on with Mom, second brother, and second sister-in-law—they didn’t understand a thing!

The little guy was even more confused; what did going to Qinghai have to do with Tata?

It was only years later that he learned Ta’er Temple was built because a pagoda came before the temple; the Lotus Tower was constructed by the disciples to console Master Tsongkhapa’s mother, who yearned for her son. It turned out that within that nickname was all of Huanhuan’s longing for him, even though back then Huanhuan didn’t know him and thought her child was a daughter!
