Chu Xiaomeng silently, silently turned her head to look at whom she thought was "Uncle Song Chen," and then she saw her father looking at her with a sad face.
Chu Xiaomeng: "..."
She took a cherry from the plate in Chu Yanshen's hand, put it in her mouth, blinked, and said, "Daddy, if I say, if I say all those words were to deceive Uncle Song Chen, would you believe me?"
Chu Yanshen: "Do you think I would believe that?"
Chu Xiaomeng seriously replied, "I think you should, because children don't lie."
"..."
Chu Yanshen was amused by the little one's act and scooped her into his arms, "Alright, let's go inside. Your two brothers are worried sick!"
Only then did Chu Xiaomeng sigh like a little adult.
Alas, deceiving adults is really hard, definitely not something a social phobic like her could manage!
