Ch.76 Helping in Secret (3)

Today was the first day the crew started work. Lin Yueqi asked Xiao Ke to bring Tuantuan as well. Currently, Tuantuan was sitting on a bench with Lu Ting near the outer periphery of the stables.

The father and daughter pair were both holding baked potatoes in their hands.

Lu Ting weighed the baked potato in his hand, unsure of how he should eat this. Does he peel the skin, or does he eat the whole thing?

The skin looks pretty clean and crispy from the baking. So, does he eat it as is?

Lu Tuan looked over at Tuantuan and saw the little girl peel off the sweet potato skin like a banana, revealing the soft yellow flesh inside.

Lu Ting was just about to learn how she peeled the sweet potato when the girl passed him the peeled one and said in a sweet voice, “Papa, this one’s for you.”

He took the sweet potato from the chubby young girl and took a small bite in front of her.

The girl took the sweet potato from his hands and asked with an expectant face, “Is it yummy, Papa?”

“Yeah.” The man nodded, his throat bobbing as he spoke. “It’s very sweet.”

His daughter’s sweet potato, so sweet it melted his heart.

After taking the sweet potato from him, Tuantuan did not peel off the skin and just bit down on it directly, swallowing it down with the skin. Lu Ting asked with a frown, “Is it too troublesome to peel? Here, Papa will peel it for you.”

“Don’t, Papa. Sweet potato with the skin is very crispy and delicious. Tuantuan thinks that this is the only way to eat them to preserve the most delicious taste!”

“Then why did you…”

Lu Ting looked at the peeled potato in his hands and asked.

Tuantuan’s eyebrows curved and she said cheerily, “Because Mama says Papa is a clean freak and is very hard to take care of. So Tuantuan peeled the skin just for Papa. This is a special service just for Papa, Mama doesn’t get it.”

Upon hearing that, Lu Ting had a complicated look on his face. He looked at his daughter with the loving gaze of an old father for a while and finally came back to his senses after a moment. He leaned down and laid a peck upon the girl’s forehead.

Sometimes, actions are better than words.

He was just about to speak when Tuantuan suddenly stood on the bench, jumping on top of it and pointing to the distance. “Papa look! Mama is here! Papa, she’s so pretty!”

Lu Ting looked in Lin Yueqi’s direction, only to see her dressed in the fancy movie costume. All the blemishes on her face were hidden underneath the makeup.

She had good skin so the makeup looked uniform and smooth. She was dressed in English riding gear. She wore a light-colored shirt underneath with a beautiful ribbon at her collar. She had a pair of tall riding boots on her feet that made her legs look long and straight. She wore a black riding helmet on her head that covered some of her forehead, framing around her skin and making her appear very fair.

She stood at the center of the stables with a large, long-legged, warmblood horse behind her standing 1.9 meters tall, giving the girl and even greater noble air.

Lin Yueqi grew up in the countryside and herded both cattle and sheep, tending to hogweed and working all sorts of farm jobs. There was no driveway at the village so she often transported grains with her aunt on horseback, climbing through several hills to reach town. The experiences she had when she was young made her strong like a vigorous blade of grass, with a heroic aura blooming between her brows.

She and Qin Xue stood together, but her temperament did not lose out to her. Her beauty was unique, unlike Qin Xue whose features were too delicate to feel real.

Lin Yueqi was standing side by side with Qin Xue in front of the director, listening to his pointers for the next scene.

She folded the whip in her hands in half and listened, whipping it against her thigh as if she was pondering the director’s words carefully.

She also looked very beautiful when she was serious.

Right now, she was the only one in Lu Ting’s eyes.

Tuantuan gnawed on her sweet potato while she lamented with her mouth filled with the yellow stuff. She licked her sweet lips and swung her little feet, saying, “Wow, Mama is so pretty! Isn’t that right, Papa? You would love Mama like that for eternity, right?”

Lu Ting was stunned a moment when asked this question by his daughter.

In the beginning, he just wanted to take responsibility for Lin Yueqi, but “love” was a more difficult topic.
