They ran well ahead of other families. Even Edie herself couldn’t believe Stuart could cooperate with their daughter for the first time. They didn’t even need to mind their feet.

Besides, they didn’t look at each other all the way. Both were pretty. Both were proud as if they didn’t like each other.

They looked really like father and daughter.

When they walked to her, Stuart bent down to tie the rope on Edie’s legs and said, "follow me, we don’t have to rush. Keep stable."

"Okay..."

Edie nodded obediently, letting him hold her hands. She didn’t know how to describe her feeling at the moment. She was joyful, lost, and worried. She already started worrying he might disappear next second.

If...

This was her dream. She wanted to stay in this dream. When she woke up, they would separate from each other.

Since they’ve met each other, then accept it.

She raised the corner of her mouth and followed his steps. Hearing his watchword "one-two one.", Edie felt really peaceful.

Edie was really bad at keeping in balance. She soon left behind. At this moment, she heard Stuart’s voice,

"Step on my feet. Let me take you."

Then, he loosened their daughter’s hands, leaving Laty walking alone.

Edie stepped on his feet. The posture looked like Waltz. She wondered how he would take her.

As she stared at him confusingly, Stuart buckled her waist tightly and pressed her towards his chest and walked towards.

"I haven’t held others for a long time. If you feel uncomfortable, tell me."

He said in a slight and gentle voice. He said these words so carefully.

Edie answered, "It feels good."

"Great. Though it has been a long time, I still can hold you well. After all, you are the only woman I’ve ever held in my arms."

Though his voice still sounded slight, each word he said was like a feather touching her heart gently.

She looked away on purpose and asked him, "What? Have you held other men in your arms?"

"When Cecil was born, I did hold him in my arms several times," Stuart answered seriously.

Hearing this answer, Edie wanted to laugh out.

What a scene when Stuart held a baby in his arms?

Soon, they arrived at the terminal point. The teacher gave them the board and told them where to go.

Stuart held the number board and asked, "Win the first prize, want it?"

"Can we?" Edie looked at him confusingly.

Edie didn’t think they could win the first prize. But with Stuart around, she became more confident in her team. Besides, their daughter cooperated really well with Stuart. Maybe they are really able to win the first prize.

"As long as you want:

Stuart said, as long as Edie said she wanted it.

He would give her everything she had and took everything to her.

That was all.

Nothing more than that.

Seeing this, Laty standing beside them got angry.

She was the one that was the heroine of the sports meeting. It was she that should decide whether to win the prize or not. Besides, she was their baby. She was the center of this family. Why could she ignore her opinion directly?

Suddenly she wanted to cry out as if what she said to Stuart was nothing for Stuart. It didn’t threaten Stuart at all.

They went to the next contest and, as Stuart said, they won the first prize.

After that, it was an interactive activity between father and kids. Edie stood beside the basket to throw them the ball.

All the families were having fun. Kids were working so hard with their father to win more balls.

Only Stuart and Laty looked so calm. They transferred the balls so quickly. Within three minutes, they already transferred more than ten balls.

The teacher walked to Edie and said in a weird voice, "Laty didn’t look so familiar with her dad. But....they cooperated with each other quite well. So weird. They should have been good friends with each other. Why don’t they laugh? See."

Hearing these words, Edie got so embarrassed.

How could she explain to a stranger that Stuart was a cold man?

She smiled bitterly, "They are inverted. I am the one that is outgoing in my family."

"But...everybody is looking at you now. You win the competition. But...it is so embarrassing if they don’t talk to each other. We don’t know how to introduce them. Edie, please solve this. Okay?"

Solve this...

Edie looked towards Stuart and their daughter hopelessly. When they walked to her, she said, "Could you smile for a while? The teacher already complained to me. Don’t you see everyone here is looking at us? Stop pretending to be cold, okay?"

"My nature."

Stuart said in a slight voice.

Laty also said unsatisfactorily, "He is my employee. I employed him for twenty dollars. He should have followed my order. I would never smile at him. Don’t dream of it."

Edie knocked on her little brain and said, "Do you want everyone else to know about this? Laty, dear, please, smile, talk something. Pretend the game is difficult. That would make your classmates feel more comfortable."

"But it is super easy."

Both Stuart and Laty said at the same time.

Edie was driven crazy immediately.

"Pretend it. Pretend it for a while. Don’t you know how to pretend? If you don’t cooperate with me, then all right, I can go now."

Laty curled her lips. She still wanted to refuse Edie, but Stuart stopped her before she said a word out.

He smiled and said slightly, "Okay, we can smile, like this, okay?"

He looked towards Edie and showed a gentle soft smile. That coldness on his face disappeared immediately. Edie could feel the warmth, like the wind in the spring. She was attracted by him so much that she didn’t even want to look away. Other parents also looked towards them.

His smile was so.... charming.

"..."

Looking at the smile on his face, she pressed her lips and nodded.

Then, Stuart dragged Laty away. He said in a cold voice, "If you don’t laugh, I will beat you to crying."

Laty was shocked. She had no choice but forced herself to make a smile, the most standard smile.

Then she squeezed several words from her teeth, "Am I really your daughter? I think I might be adopted."

"Impossible. I never adopt any kids."

Hearing this, Edie didn’t know what to say.

Both of them were smiling now. Stuart was smiling slightly, while the other showed her eight teeth and smiled.

It looked quite pretty, though, Edie felt that smile looked so scary.

When seeing this, the interpreter didn’t know how to introduce them, either. So he just neglected them and started introducing the next family directly.
