Guide to tame my villainous husbands novel Chapter 428

-

Shao Hui blushed in embarrassment, it wasn't that he dared not to say his wishes but he did not know how to. When he was living with his mother, she hardly came to look for him as she was busy with the hunting guild and the new and young mer concubines in her harem. With new beauties added to her harem every day how could his mother even bother about his father?

The two of them lived alone in the small courtyard that was given to them.

His mother only came to him when she wanted him to lend her his powers and only then would she ask him what he wanted—— other than that, she hardly paid any attention to him. But the thing was that even after promising that she would bring him this and that, Madam Shao would still forget what she promised to him.

And little him would stay in the courtyard waiting for his mother to return and bring him, his reward. He still remembered that there was one time when it was past Christmas and he asked his mother to bring him a small toy as a gift for his birthday. He did not dare to even dream that his mother would bring him a toy on Christmas as she had never done that but since she promised him that she would spend the last day of the year with him and even gift him, Shao Hui was hopeful.

Ten years ago in a small courtyard.

' Hui Hui, your mother might be busy with something,' father Shao told twelve-year-old Shao Hui who was staring at the door with a pair of shiny eyes. ' You should come inside and cut your mountain steak with daddy.'

Little Shao Hui turned to look at his father and shook his head before saying excitedly, ' Daddy, Mother promised me! We did a pinky promise, the one where we hook our fingers together. She did that with me, she will definitely come or else she will have to swallow a hundred needles.'

His daddy looked at him with a face filled with hesitation. Though he seemed as if he wanted to say something to Shao Hui, Father Shao still held back and nodded, ' If that is what you want but once it's ten o clock at night, we are cutting the steak all right?'

Shao Hui nodded obediently. He sat on the swing and then waited and waited. When his father spoke to him it was eight o'clock and by the time snow started to fall over his head, Shao Hui knew that his mother was not going to come but he still waited and hoped that before midnight, his mother would come to see him.

' Enough is enough, Hui Hui,' at ten thirty his daddy could no longer hold anymore, he came outside and picked the stubborn Shao Hui from the swing as he scolded. ' Your mother is not coming, how many times has she promised you and how many times has she broken her promise? Look at you, you are almost frozen waiting for her.'

Shao Hui who lay in the arms of his daddy, looked over at the doors which were open and yet did not show the figure that he was waiting for, he hugged his daddy and softly whispered, ' But I did a good job and mother promised me, how can she break the promise?'

His daddy did not reply, he first brought him inside and then wiped him with a towel before making Shao Hui change his clothes. Only then did his father look him in the eye and whisper, 'When there are too many priorities and distractions, people ought to forget things and people who are not important to them.'

Little Shao Hui did not understand what his father meant, he simply nodded and finished his birthday meal.

Just like that three days passed by and his mother came looking for him again. She asked him to hypnotize another group of women, but this time little Shao Hui wanted to know why his mother forgot his birthday, so he summoned his courage and questioned his mother in a milky voice, ' Mother, why did you not come to my birthday when you promised?'
