Herbert got up and staggered. He quickly stabilized himself and bent down to rub his numb knees. He walked slowly upstairs. At this moment, the man behind him said, "Boys have to walk with their heads high."
Herbert gritted his teeth and stood up straight. He controlled his legs and slowly went upstairs.
Back in his room, Herbert lay on the bed and hid under the blanket to cry.
He did not like this daddy!
This daddy was too scary!
The next morning, Herbert carried his school bag downstairs and saw Robert, who was tying his tie and planning to go to work. He called out to his daddy respectfully and said, "Drive carefully on the road. I love you." Robert looked at him and acknowledged his obedience before leaving contentedly.
As soon as he left, Xiao Meng ran towards Herbert.
"Are you alright?" Xiao Meng was very nervous about Herbert's health. "When did you return to your room last night? Xiao Bao, are you feeling unwell?"
