The next day, Ling Yi went to his ex-wife's residence with gifts.

Scott Lang was divorced, and his ex-wife filed for divorce when he was arrested and put in prison.

At that time, they already had a one-year-old daughter, and in order to take better care of their daughter and make his wife happier, Scott Lang agreed to divorce.

Such values are obviously different from the values of Eastern culture.

Oriental people pay attention to starting from the beginning, and sometimes even when the relationship is gone, they have to be twisted together and pretend to be affectionate in front of outsiders.

Westerners, on the other hand, do whatever they want, if they don't love it, they don't love it, if they don't feel it, they don't feel it, they get married when they should get married, and they divorce when they need to divorce.

Of course, after the divorce, the two parties can still get along, and although Scott Lang does not have custody of his daughter Cathy Lang, he has normal visitation rights.

Today is Cathy Lang's fourth birthday, so no matter what, Scott Lang is coming to the door for his daughter's birthday.

When Ling Yi opened the door of his ex-wife's house, the room was already full of children's laughter and noise.

"Daddy!"

A little blonde beauty wearing a birthday princess dress rushed out of the pile of children and rushed into Ling Yi's arms at once.

Ling Yi himself naturally has never been a father, but he is now playing Scott Lang, and Scott Lang's mood swings still affect his inner feelings.

He hugged the milky little girl, "My darling, look how tall you have grown!" Happy birthday! ”

"Dad, you're late!" Cathy smiled with a smile on her face.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I don't know what time the party starts." Ling Yi said apologetically.

"But, it's written on the invitation."

"He didn't have an invitation." A man came over with a smile, "But he's here anyway." ”

This was a bit sarcastic, but Ling Yi didn't care.

Not missing your precious daughter's birthday is more important than anything else.

The man who ridiculed Ling Yi was Cathy's stepfather, Paxton.

Paxton is a police officer by profession, and he is the same officer who arrested Scott Lang and put him in jail in the first place—and of course, he was only on orders.

Although this guy loves to ridicule people, he is a good person in his bones, and in the past few years, he has taken good care of Cathy as if she were his own.

I even wanted to compare myself with Ling Yi to see who was the real father in Cathy's heart.

From this point alone, Ling Yi is grateful.

"I'm going to tell mom you're here!" Cathy happily bounced away.

"Scott, you haven't paid child support yet, have you?" Paxton asked in a weird voice.

"I'm glad to meet you, too, Paxton." Ling Yi said with a smile.

"I'm not saying hello to you, I'm asking you about child support!" Paxton has a good income, and it is really not bad for Ling Yi to pay child support, but he just wants to embarrass Ling Yi as the head of the family, so as to show his status as the head of the family.

At this time, Cathy ran over excitedly, "Dad, Dad, Mom is very happy to know that you are here, and I choked on water." ”

Ling Yi smiled bitterly, and said in his heart that this is so special, this is shocking.

"Okay, my little princess, what kind of birthday present I have for you?" Ling Yi handed the bag in his hand to Cathy.

"Can I open it now?" Cathy asked.

Stepfather Paxton said with a doting face: "Of course sweetheart, today is your birthday, you can do whatever you want - by the way, you can also show us what gifts your dad will give you." ”

The children gathered around and waited for Cathy to open the gift bag.

Cathy unwraps the unsightly wrapping paper and pulls out a scary bunny from the gift bag.

This rabbit's expression is very hideous, its eyes are blood-red, its teeth are like vampire bats, how ugly it is, how ugly it is, how ugly it is.

The children present all avoided with disgust.

Stepfather Paxton said angrily to Ling Yi, "What kind of thing did you buy?" You're going to freak out my precious girl! ”

Cathy looked surprised and excited, "Wow! What a cute bunny! Ugly, cute, ugly! I love it so much! Thank you, Dad! ”

Ling Yi smiled, "I knew you would like it, because, I am your father, and you are my daughter." ”

Paxton, the stepfather on the side, had a "grass" expression on his face.

For Cathy to eat and for Cathy to wear, but the result is not as good as an ugly toy from her own father to please Cathy's little princess.

Paxton couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Ling Yi patted Paxton on the shoulder, "Keep up the good work, brother." ”

At this time, Scott's ex-wife Maggie came over angrily.

"Hello, wife, I mean, ex-wife." Ling Yi greeted with a smile.

Maggie said angrily, "Scott, you can't just come and say hello!" ”

Ling Yi said helplessly: "Believe me, I don't want to come either, but today is my daughter's birthday, you can't help but let me celebrate my daughter's birthday, that would not only be cruel to me, but also cruel to my daughter." ”

Paxton, the stepfather on the side, nodded, "I don't like Scott, but that's right." ”

Maggie glared at Paxton, "You shut up for me." ”

Ling Yi glanced at Paxton with pity, "It's dire and dire." ”

Paxton sighed, "It's hard to put into words, man. ”

"It's okay, let's have a drink together another day."

"Okay."

"You two!" Maggie said angrily, "Get me out!" ”

Paxton hurriedly said, "Maggie, I was wrong, I would never drink with Scott!" Scott, please get out of our house quickly. ”

After speaking, he winked helplessly at Ling Yi.

"Okay, okay."

Ling Yi walked out of the room dejectedly.

Paxton chased after him, "Hey, bro, don't take it too seriously, you're Maggie's ex-husband, and you've been with her longer than I've been with her." You should know that Maggie is the kind of person with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and the reason why she doesn't want to see you is because she is afraid that I will embarrass me, and secondly, she thinks that you are a prisoner, and if you meet Cathy often, it will bring her trouble. Benign influence. What else can I say, she is a mother and she has a reason to protect her daughter from all angles. ”

Ling Yi smiled and said, "Paxton, thank you, you are a good person. ”

Paxton shrugged, "It's a pity, being a good person can only be helpless more often." ”

Ling Yi frowned slightly: "What do you mean?" Cathy...... Is there any trouble? ”

Paxton hurriedly said, "No! No. ”

"Come on, Paxton, you're a strip, you don't know how to lie! I'm Cathy's father, and I have the right to know everything about Cathy! Ling Yi said angrily.

"Okay." Paxton sighed, "We...... Need money, Scott. Cathy has a strange illness and needs an expensive operation. ”

Ling Yi's heart trembled, "How much does it cost?" ”

"100,000 dollars." Paxton said helplessly.
