Serve as Contrast Team in a ‘Dad with Baby’ Show

Chapter 9,Part 2: Guilty Conscience - Daughter is \'playing with the trash\' again

……

Here, seeing Lin Momo throw away the soda bottle in her hand, Lin Cheng didn’t say anything more and simply turned to take Lin Momo back home with a stiff face.

Lin Momo opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but saw Lin Cheng’s figure had already walked into the entrance of the residential building.

“Still standing there?” Lin Cheng turned around and called out Lin Momo.

“Umm, no.” Lin Momo quickly chased after him, and before walking into the corridor, she reluctantly glanced at the pile of recyclables behind her with a painful expression on her face—she had already processed them!

“Wash your hands,” Lin Cheng reminded her when they passed by the public sink on the third floor.

“Okay…”

“It’s finished.” Lin Momo instinctively lifted her now clean hands to show Lin Cheng.

It wasn’t until she saw that the other person’s tense expression finally loosen up a bit, that Lin Momo gave a little sigh of relief, and she followed Lin Cheng into the house.

… …

The moment she entered the room, Lin Momo was dumbfounded.

The originally messy interior has changed drastically after not seeing it for a while.

Lin Cheng moved all the miscellaneous items originally piled haphazardly around the room to one corner of the house and stacked them against the wall, leaving only a few pieces of necessary furniture and supplies. The crowded room suddenly became spacious and tidy.

Lin Momo looked around the whole room in surprise, then looked up at Lin Cheng, her eyes were full of incredible light.

Meeting the girl’s almost unbelieving eyes, the corners of Lin Cheng’s mouth twitched slightly.

In this little girl’s eyes, was he unable to take care of himself or what?

The room was tidied up, all that’s left was to consider how to sleep.

The whole house was originally one room, but the previous owner used a few wooden cabinets as partitions to divide the room into two rooms. The inner room had a ‘bed’ about a meter wide made of wooden boards. In the outer room, Lin Cheng made a serviceable ‘bed’ out of several large boxes.

“Where do you want to sleep?” Lin Cheng lowered his head and asked Lin Momo.

Lin Momo shook her head, indicating that he can choose whichever he preferred.

Seeing this, Lin Cheng looked around the room, and finally pointed to the room outside, and said to Lin Momo, “Then you sleep here.”

“Okay.” Lin Momo had no objection to Lin Cheng’s arrangements.

However, the quiet livestream channel once again blew up—this time with many comments questioning Lin Cheng’s arrangement.

[Dad asked his daughter to sleep outside? Sleep inside by himself?]

[Shouldn’t the father sleep in the living room outside and let the child sleep on the bed inside?]

[What is this dad thinking?]

[The child is still young, and they are in a strange environment, so it should be fine to sleep together. I see that the small apartment that Bai Yulin’s team live in also has only one bedroom, and both father and daughter sleep together. ]

[I saw it too, and it was also on the hot search, #Bai Yulin coaxed his daughter to take a nap#, the picture is super cute! ]

… …

Lin Cheng and Lin Momo didn’t know about the controversy their sleeping arrangements caused in the livestream channel.

The ‘father and daughter’ have already dragged their luggage to their respective ‘rooms’ and unpacked their belongings.

Lin Momo took out the sheets, quilt cover, and supplies prepared in advance from the suitcase, and started to make the bed.

Although the process was difficult for her, Lin Momo still made the bed in a decent manner.

Lin Cheng was also unpacking in the inner room. When he finished and came out, he saw that the simple bed he had built before had been covered with a set of blue Elsa sheets and quilt, and there were neatly folded clothes beside the pillow. Lin Momo had her thin legs together, sitting obediently on the edge of the bed.

Seeing Lin Cheng coming out, Lin Momo’s eyes shone brightly, and she smiled at him. Looking at the expression on her face, Lin Cheng couldn’t tell whether she wanted to show him that she was capable, or she simply wanted to ask for praise.

However, Lin Cheng’s focus at this time was not on this.

In order to make Lin Momo more photogenic in the show, most of the clothes Xu Jia found for her were pink and other soft colors. Pretty and dainty clothes were nice and all, but they were not resistant to dirt.

After tossing around for a long time, although Lin Momo was very careful, she still stained her clothes.

Remembering the scene of the kid messing around in front of the trash can, Lin Cheng suddenly felt uncomfortable.

“Did I do it right?” Lin Momo asked uncertainly, seeing that Lin Cheng’s expression was different from what she had been expecting.

“Change the dirty clothes you’re wearing,” Lin Cheng said with a frown. After speaking, he opened the door and went outside, leaving the room to Lin Momo.

Lin Momo: “…”

She seems to have been rejected by accident again?

… …

At the same time, several comments also popped up in the livestream channel.

[Hold on, Dad doesn’t have to do this.]

[I feel no love at all.]

[Is the real relationship between the father and daughter not very good? It feels like the father doesn’t care about his daughter, nor is he very good at taking care of his daughter.]

……

While Lin Momo was changing clothes inside the house, the livestream was temporarily switched to outside the house.

Two minutes later, when Lin Momo opened the door again, she had returned to a clean and tidy appearance.

“I’m fine now,” Lin Momo said to Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng nodded expressionlessly, took some money, and told her, “Stay here, I’ll go buy us food.”

There was only a communal place for cooking on the first floor, and with their current ‘family conditions’, they don’t have the capability to cook by themselves, so he can only buy food from outside.

After taking two steps, thinking of something, Lin Cheng stopped, turned back to look at Lin Momo who was still standing by the door, and asked, “Is there anything you don’t eat?”

Lin Momo shook his head, “I can eat anything.”

“Alright, how about something you want to eat?”

“Then, steamed buns!”

Nodding, Lin Cheng went out.

After Lin Cheng went out, Lin Momo was thinking about her previous pile of recycled items, so she sneaked downstairs while the other party was away.

Fortunately, this time was not the designated time to collect the garbage, and there were not many people passing by outside. Lin Momo’s previous pile of bottles and paper bowls were still where she left them.

Running over, Lin Momo crushed and sorted the remaining plastic bottles, and then found a corner in the alley to tie them up and hide them in the corner.

Then she turned back, looking around.

She wanted to see if she could pick up a few more empty bottles around here.

… …

Unfortunately, Lin Cheng came back at this time, a bag of steamed buns in hand.

As soon as Lin Cheng came back, he saw Lin Momo wandering around those garbage bins and debris piles again!

Seeing him return, the little girl took a step away from the debris pile, face full of guilty conscience.

“What are you doing here?” Lin Cheng asked in a deep voice.

“It’s nothing…I…” Lin Momo turned her head, looking for inspiration, and finally exclaimed, “I was waiting for you!”
