Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5996 Tell the Truth

She is...

I'm really getting annoyed.

Every time I thought things were getting better...

But the very next second, reality dealt her a crushing blow...

While she was being hit and feeling dizzy, her frustration was burning fiercely.

It drained all the anger from her heart.

……

The woman kept her head down.

Sipping cocoa.

……

The child gripped the cup even tighter with increasing tension.

Mom is in a bad mood.

She could clearly feel it.

……

"Ya Ya."

The man's lips twitched slightly.

"Let's talk."

……

The child instinctively sat up straight.

His pale face showed signs of tension.

She actually didn't like her parents having such a serious... proper talk with her.

Because every time this happens, it means...

what's going on.

Not a good thing.

Ok……

Or rather, it's not a good thing.

If it were a good thing, her parents would definitely tell her directly.

Instead, they would not use such euphemisms.

……

It must be something that requires her to make a choice.

And the child...

I really hate making choices.

Maybe it's because I'm not good at it that I dislike it...

She was never decisive enough.

Therefore, it is difficult to make a choice quickly.

Even things that concern oneself.

……

Her parents would say to her: "How come you don't even know what you like or dislike?"

She didn't like her parents saying that to her.

But that's just who she is.

Even knowing this, she still felt unhappy every time she heard her parents say those things to her.

Silently unhappy.

She didn't want her parents to know she was unhappy.

In that case, her parents might think she's even more clueless.

He was clearly hesitant and stammering, yet he was still angry...

……

The child gripped the cup tightly in his hand.

The aroma of cocoa wafted through the air.

It still smells so rich and pleasant.

But it couldn't soothe the child's increasingly agitated heart.

……

"Ya Ya."

The man paused.

Actually, he never really wanted to talk to his child about this in detail.

Perhaps they felt it was unnecessary.

Perhaps it's out of... an escapist mentality.

They think that if they ignore it or don't say anything, then nothing of this will happen.

……

But things didn't improve as he had hoped.

As of now...

The problem is really...

It's getting bigger.

Yaya...

And sure enough, she actually saw the big leopard she had mentioned again.

……

He could no longer afford to ignore it.

Some problems...

If left unattended, things will gradually improve.

But there are some problems...

will not.

It might even get worse.

It's too late...

It may truly be beyond repair.

……

"you……"

After hesitating for a moment, the man decided to get straight to the point.

Children may not understand if you try to explain things indirectly or indirectly.

The current situation doesn't allow them to take their time.

Slow down any further...

The child is really going to be kidnapped by Chen Jing.

……

"You just said you saw a big leopard..."

The man's voice unconsciously lowered a little.

The man then realized what was happening.

They went home.

Don't worry about others overhearing your words and causing any misunderstandings...

……

The man gave a wry smile.

He was also starting to feel uneasy.

……

The child suddenly opened his eyes wide.

She opened her mouth.

I'm not sure if I should tell the truth?
Her parents didn't like her seeing the leopard...

Her parents told her to pretend she didn't see the leopard...

She remembered it all.

She was so surprised and excited when she suddenly saw the leopard...

I completely forgot my promise to my parents...

How should she answer her father at this moment?

……

"to be honest."

Seemingly noticing the child's hesitation, the man said.

Some problems, if kept hidden or concealed, cannot be completely resolved.

He should have known sooner.

Sometimes there's just no way around it...

There's no way to completely solve this...

So we can only let it pass by vaguely.

The child's expression froze.

Tell me the truth?

really?
Will Mom and Dad be angry?
The child glanced at his father's expression.

She then carefully observed her mother's expression.

Is Mom still angry?
……

"What are you looking at me for?"

The woman said somewhat stiffly.

……

The child immediately looked away like a startled fawn.

……

The woman was somewhat soft-hearted.

She sighed inwardly.

"to be honest."

Things had progressed to this point, and she could no longer deceive herself.

……

The child's pupils contracted sharply.

She pursed her lips tightly.

He was picking at the cup with his fingers.

"..."

The child opened his mouth.

No sound was made.

……

The child took a deep breath.

……

"Ya Ya."

The man encouraged the child, "Don't be nervous."

"Your mother and I won't scold you."

"Your mother isn't angry with you."

Maybe some.

It's infuriating that the child doesn't keep their word.

But the main target of my anger...

It's definitely Chen Jing.

……

The child opened his eyes wide.

really?
Is Mom angry with her?

Who is that for?

The child didn't understand.

Besides her...

Has anyone else upset Mom?
……

The child was distracted for a moment.

Then I suddenly came to my senses.

She saw her father looking at her intently.

The child was somewhat embarrassed.

What question did Dad ask her?
The child began to feel anxious and uneasy.

She...forgot.

……

Did you really see a big leopard just now?

The man repeated his question.

He could tell the child was nervous.

……

The child's lips were completely bloodless.

The child slowly opened his mouth.

"..."

Still no sound came out.

But she nodded.

Yes.

She saw it.

See clearly.

……

The man and woman looked at each other.

I felt a sense of relief, like dust had settled, mixed with a feeling of tension in my heart.

Two feelings intertwined.

This made the two of them frown.

……

"I really saw it..."

The man murmured.

Actually, this question is somewhat redundant.

The child even screamed...

Of course I saw it.

……

They just kept clinging to a sliver of hope...

It's ridiculous to keep deceiving yourself...

……

After a few seconds of stiffness, the man sighed deeply.

"Ya Ya."

"You really saw one..."

The man paused, "A big leopard?"

……

The child nodded.

Ok.

She really saw a... big leopard.

……

"Really……"

The man couldn't help but confirm it again and again.

……

The child is getting a little annoyed.

She nodded vigorously.

"real."

The child finally made a sound.

She pointed to her eyes.

"I saw it with both eyes."

"It's crystal clear."

"Mom and Dad."

The man and woman were puzzled, as was the child.

"you……"

"Didn't you see it?"

……

The man and woman looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

If they saw it...

Then none of this would have happened.

The problem is...

They didn't see it.

Such a small place...

The child's gaze is clearly directed towards the object.

The big leopard the child talked about...

Since it is given the name of "great"...
