Chapter 17: An Awkward First Meeting
Zhang Dawei and the baby arrived in San Diego, of course, they also picked up Xiaobai, this little fat dog looks aggrieved, it doesn't matter if he hasn't seen the owner for a long time, the key is that he is really wronged to be locked in a small cage.
"Xiaobai, Mommy. The baby happily hugged Xiaobai, looking forward to it, "Xiaobai, Mommy has milk." ”
Looking at a serious baby, Zhang Dawei was really speechless, because Xiaobai must not know the baby's mother.
Picking up his rented car, Zhang Dawei went straight to Chula Vista, a small city in San Diego County. Melissa's home is here, her father is a worker, and her mother has just retired.
In the past two days, Zhang Dawei can be regarded as knowing some of Melissa's situation, she is only twenty-two years old now, and she is now studying music at the University of San Diego's College of Arts and Sciences.
Although I don't say anything about the Ivy, this is one of the most beautiful campuses in the United States, and it is also high in the comprehensive ranking of American universities, although it is not the highest, but it belongs to the top 100 or so.
"Baby, if your Grandpa and Grandma hit me, do you want to help me?" Looking up at the rearview mirror, Zhang Dawei had nothing to say, "Baby, your Grandpa must be angry, he will definitely duel with me." ”
"Dad, baby loves you the most!"
With encouragement, Zhang Dawei is now confident. Although Melissa's parents may be very angry and so on, Zhang Dawei thinks that he is still a little confident. As long as he doesn't use a gun, Melissa's father is nothing, even if Melissa has a younger brother who is in high school, it doesn't matter, Zhang Dawei thinks he can fight ten!
Melissa was still in her room, a little nervous and overwhelmed right now.
She knew something had happened in the year she had disappeared, but she couldn't remember. So when the police told her that she had a daughter, she was flustered and surprised, but not so excited, because it all seemed normal.
And in the living room, a bearded man with a serious face, looked at the young man next to him, and finally spoke.
"Joshua, if that bastard comes, you're going to teach him a hard lesson!"
The young man looked at his father, who was nodding his head, but shook his head anyway, "Paul, I probably won't be able to beat him." You should have heard the policemen say that he was almost a wild man. The guys who walked out of the forest with him said that the guy was terrifying, and he had a lot of strength. I wanted to help my sister, but I couldn't beat him. ”
Paul Watson didn't know what to say, he was actually a little flustered and angry right now.
The year his daughter disappeared, he was sad and desperate, and of course he was happy when his daughter returned, but he also wanted to know what happened to her. As for the bastard who hurt his daughter, he really wanted to teach him a lesson.
Many people think that Americans are very open to sex, but in fact, many people in the United States are more open to these things. But in some devout Catholic families, these are still more important.
Although I don't care about premarital sex, I am very resistant to having children out of wedlock, and even think it is a shame.
Obviously, the Watson family is more resistant to these, Paul and Joshua are actually names in the Bible, and it is also popular in Europe and the United States to use the names of people in the Bible. As for Zhang Dawei's Dawei, David is also a name in the Bible, but Zhang Dawei is not a preacher, because he is only transliterated, just for convenience.
Including the school where Melissa attended, which is a Catholic university...... Of course, in the United States, not to mention that college students have children, and even some high school students will have children, such a thing is not so uncommon.
Of course, Zhang Dawei didn't know this, and he didn't know that someone slowly noticed him when he was doing the paternity test. Even Matthew and Zhu Lina, who walked out of the forest with him, also said something they knew, because the police went to look for them, because Zhang Dawei and his children looked a little weird.
And now, of course, the Watson family knows these things.
chose to see Zhang Dawei at home, in fact, it was not because of Zhang Dawei, but because of the baby. Even though the Watson family has a complicated perception of the baby, they still want to meet this cute and smart little guy, who is Melissa's child, and must want to see it.
After looking at the address, Zhang Dawei parked the car. Pick up the baby, as for Xiaobai, just jump out of the car by yourself, and follow with the fart. In order to come out together this time, Xiaobai endured the treatment of being locked in a cage and threw his good brother into the sheepfold.
Zhang Dawei was carrying a bottle of red wine in his hand, and the baby was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. Although it is the first time to visit the door, I don't know what the result will be, but I still need to pay attention to simple etiquette, and there is no harm.
"Is it Melissa Watson's home?" Zhang Dawei just knocked on the door, politely asking.
But at this time, the baby's milky voice sounded, "Mommy, it's the baby." Mommy, baby misses you!"
The door opened, and the baby, who had been excited, suddenly turned to hug her father, not her mother, but her grandfather.
"Hello sir. I'm Zhang Dawei, you can call me David......"
Before Zhang Dawei's self-introduction was finished, Paul Watson turned around.
Zhang Dawei shrugged his shoulders, he could understand Paul's mood right now. Clearly, Paul felt sad and unworthy for his daughter. There's no way, who let some people see that Zhang Dawei is the one who hurt Melissa, and it is even very likely that he is the culprit, and it is really unrealistic to expect the friendly attitude of Melissa's family in such a situation.
Walking into the house with the baby, the baby looked a little nervous. But she won't be afraid, because the little girl is lying in her father's arms, and the little one is happily playing with her father's ears, so it's good not to look at her grandfather.
Although the Watson family's financial situation is relatively average, it is a decent two-story building. But Melissa's parents are just ordinary workers, and the family also supports a college student, so the pressure must be not small.
There are many universities in the United States and education is developed, but the tuition fees for college students are not cheap, and generally belong to the annual income of the American middle class. It is clear that Melissa's family is not yet up to such a level. In fact, Melissa applied for a student loan, and the pressure on her family is still quite high, maybe it may be better after she graduates college.
Suddenly, Zhang Dawei saw a girl walking down the stairs, a very refreshing girl. But she looked a little haggard now, and she felt like she was a little bit of the type that needed to be protected.
"Mommy, Mommy!"
The baby was happy, the little girl opened her little hand happily, and she saw her mother.
Melissa was stunned, at a loss. Even though she did a lot of psychological construction in advance, she was still stunned the moment she saw the baby, and she didn't know how to face her daughter, or maybe it was the person she used to be her boyfriend.
"Mommy, Op. ”
Melissa couldn't hold back this time, tears welled up in her eyes, and she almost rushed over and hugged the baby.
"Opple, it's Mommy......"
An embarrassing thing happened, because when Melissa just hugged the baby, the little girl dishonestly stretched out her little fat hand and went directly towards Melissa's collar and directly stretched out her little paws to grab it......
"Mommy, milk. ”
The panicked Melissa hurriedly covered her collar, and the baby suddenly pouted very aggrieved, Mommy didn't give her milk, and the baby's favorite milk was gone, which made the baby really aggrieved.
He hugged the baby and smiled apologetically at Melissa, who was a little overwhelmed.
"Baby, obedient. You're a big kid now, you can't do that. ”
The baby with a small mouth hugged the baby's neck aggrievedly, and the small mouth was deflated, "Dad, Mommy has milk." ”
Awkward topic, let's not talk about it for the time being, this naughty little guy, Zhang Dawei still has a way to deal with it. Although it may be a little harder, Zhang Dawei has such self-confidence, in the end, it is his baby daughter!
The atmosphere is indeed a little awkward, because children can always make some trouble. But fortunately, in the end, it is a child, so everyone is still more tolerant of these little guys, especially their own children!
