22 Your Daughter?

"Aunt Fu? This is your daughter? You are sisters, right?" The slap from Aunt Fu stunned Wang Ming, but that Fu Ya is Aunt Fu's daughter baffled him. He called Aunt Fu as aunt, since that's the way she introduced herself to him. But truthfully, if Wang Ming didn't know better, he would think Aunt Fu was 30 years maximum, maybe younger. If Fu Ya and Aunt Fu went out together, only crazy people would think that Fu Ya and Aunt Fu were anything more than sisters.

When Wang Ming looked at Aunt Fu and realized how much she and Fu Ya resembled each other. Aunt Fu was just an older version of Fu Chunhua, she looked more mature and gentle. Wang Ming felt ashamed to think this, but he thought that Aunt Fu looked like a woman.

That was gentle as a rabbit in the day, but would rock your world like a tiger at night. Feeling ashamed Wang Ming tried to divert his thoughts. Wang Ming looked away, not daring to look at Aunt Fu.

"I'm Sorry Wang Ming! I didn't think that it would be you, I thought my daughter was lying to me, and she had taken a man to my shop and home without telling me. Many people have said the same thing as you, but usually, they are men that are trying to take advantage of me and my daughter. But she is my biological daughter, I had her when I was 16, and when her bastard father knew I was pregnant, he ran away. That's why I'm strict with her even though she is 23, though I should have been stricter with her earlier. But Ming Ming is a gift from heaven for both me and her."

Aunt Fu didn't know why she was telling this much to Wang Ming, but she felt that Wang Ming was a trustworthy and hardworking person since they met for the first time Fu Ling. Even though he was probably at least 10 years younger than her she felt like they could be friends.

She still remembers seeing him save a girl from a bunch of thugs yesterday. A man that could throw away his life for another person couldn't be a bad person. She also wanted to act as a matchmaker for her daughter and him. Since her daughter had been single ever since that happened. She knew that Fu Ya tried to hide it from her, but she had seen many times how loneliness was slowly starting to eat away at her daughter. There were sometimes she saw Fu Ya crying in her sleep while hugging Ming Ming.

For Aunt Fu, the most important criterion for her son-in-law is that he is a caring man. He doesn't need to be rich or handsome, he just needs to be hardworking. If he's hard-working, Aunt Fu would gladly give her shop to her son-in-law and daughter.

"Mom! Why are you telling him all of this? Who even is he?"

Fu Ya didn't know why her mother told Wang Ming all of this. Her mother would usually never say more than a couple of sentences to men. She would be polite and answer questions if they were customers, if she met someone on the streets she would just brush them off. But now she was telling a man sensitive information about them both.

After hearing what Fu Chunhua, Wang Ming wanted to explain himself and tell her that Aunt Fu, were very nice and helped him get the spot where he sold food at the festival. But before he could, Aunt Fu started scolding Fu Chunhua.

"Hush-hush, how can you talk like that to your mother and in front of a customer. Wang Ming is a good man. He rescued a woman from an attempted kidnapping and rape!" Wang Ming felt happy that Aunt Fu highly of him.

"But how, he's in a wheelchair!" Fu Chunhua didn't know how it would be possible for Wang Ming to fight against anyone. He looked like he had some muscles, but he is in a wheelchair.

"Don't underestimate him, he's really strong. He beat them all with a wooden tube. They even had to call for reinforcements. But I couldn't witness the whole situation since the people from Wang gang, dispersed the crowd. He's also a hardworking man, I saw him on the first day of the market festival. He worked so hard to get a spot to sell at and seeing how he treated his customers melted my heart."

Wang Ming felt like a third wheel as Aunt Fu and Fu Ya kept talking with each other, but when he heard what Aunt Fu said, he felt embarrassed. He felt like he had done nothing special.

Though except for saving Lang Lin, it was a stupid move by him, as he now had offended the whole HouZi Gang, but he didn't regret it and he had got nothing from it. He would have to be careful when going outside now, since the HouZi gang would hunt him. He would need to deal with HouZi gang sometime or else he would never have peace. There was also the Lang gang. He didn't hate Lang Lin since she had no say in what Lang Gang did, but he still remembers them abandon him.

After a couple of minutes, Aunt Fu and Fu Ya finished arguing. They didn't know why they argued about Wang Ming. They weren't even close to him. So they both felt embarrassed after realizing what they had done. They looked away and didn't dare to face each other or Wang Ming. Wang Ming didn't feel any less awkward than them, though. It felt weird having two people that you barely know argue about you.

So Wang Ming lightly coughed and asked for the price. He wanted to get out of the shop as fast as possible. "Uh, Miss Fu Ya, what were the price again?"

Fu Chunhua's eyes widened when she realized that she had forgotten everything about the clothes. So she hurriedly told him the price, but this time she didn't dare to look him in the eyes, afraid of that would happen again.

"I'm sorry we got caught up in something. The price is 4000 yuan. I know it's expensive, but these suits are handmade by me."

"No, give him a 50% discount so 2000 yuan. I promised him that if he, comes to our shop I will give him a discount."

"Mom, why?" Fu Ya couldn't understand why she would treat Wang Ming so nicely. But her mother's glare silenced her, and she said nothing more.

"Ok, It's 2000 yuan then Mister Ming."

Wang Ming wanted to say no to the discount. But when he heard the price, he knew he couldn't afford to deny it. It would make a big impact on his savings. Giving Fu Ya 2000 yuan, he felt it was a waste but also a brilliant investment. Grabbing the bags given to him by Fu Chunhua and arranged them on the sides of his wheelchair. He bid Aunt Fu and Fu Chunhua farewell.

But before he could make his way out of the shop. There was one last hindrance Ming Ming. She pouted again and placed herself in front of the door, blocking Wang Ming from opening the door.

"Uncle!, you forgot to say goodbye to me, you also have to give me a kiss."

Ming Ming's actions dumbfounded them. But Wang Ming reacted first and grabbed Ming Ming, giving her a big bear hug, and kissed her on the cheek. Then placed her down, Wang Ming said.

"Goodbye Ming Ming, next time uncle will give you lots of food!"

When Wang Ming made his way out of the door, Ming Ming was rolling on the floor laughing in happiness, and murmured to herself "I love you Daddy".
