love across the three realms

Chapter 42 "Act 4" The Loose Barrier ([-])

He Xing knew that he had nothing to say, but he said shamelessly: "Don't care, don't care! Anyway, Dad beat me to death, and I want you to pay for my mental loss!" It's okay to hurt, but Dad woke me up. Hers is a peerless eye-opening dream!Even if it's a fantasy, let her accept Ying's confession first!
"Are you still asking me for spiritual loss? I didn't ask you for spiritual loss. You should be laughing. Dad's hard-working dinner made you waste it like this? And the grain grown by the farmer uncle let you waste it like this ? Isn’t the first poem your dad taught you when you were a child—the day of hoeing the crops at noon, sweat dripping down the soil..."

"I was wrong! I was wrong, Dad!" He Xing immediately cut off He Tongda's thoughts, and raised his hands in surrender!For her, her father's nagging spell is the most powerful spell in the world. Once the spell is cast, she is like a monkey grandson who has been chanted by Tang Seng, except for surrendering.

"What should I do if I know I'm wrong?" He Tongda complacently put on the posture of a master.

"I'll just clean up the little one, and then I'll give Mrs. He a shoulder and a back beat after dinner." He Xing hurriedly picked up the rice scattered on the table back into the bowl. Fortunately, the rice bowl just fell on the table just now. How can she eat it when she comes back from cleaning?
A dinner passed between father and daughter bickering and laughing.

"Dad, I want to ask you a question." He Xing vigorously beat He Tongda on the back with a pair of small fists.

"Say." He Tongda enjoyed his daughter's service diligently, with a pipe in his mouth and a book in a foreign language in his hand.

"How can I learn to swim in three days?" He Xing asked the question cautiously, frowning. She couldn't give up this opportunity no matter what she thought, especially the short-lived dream just now gave her more motivation. She always felt that If she can pass this assessment, she and Ying may really have a new opportunity.

"Cough! Cough!" He Tongda choked on the smoke and coughed violently.

"Dad, are you okay?" He Xinger hurriedly patted He Tongda on the back, handed him the tea cup in front of him, and asked with concern.

"I'm talking about my daughter." He Tongda drank his saliva, calmed down, and said earnestly, "Basically, your question can only be a beautiful dream, and you can just swim in it."

"Why? Dad, you just look down on your daughter like that?" He Xing pushed his father's shoulder resolutely.

"I'm not looking down on you, daughter, think about it for yourself, you don't even dare to plunge your head into the washbasin, how can you learn to swim." He Tongda shook his head in despair.

"Hey! Dad, why did you say the same thing as Xiao Xun? You all underestimate me, I'll put my hair in the washbasin for you to see!" He Xing rushed into the bathroom angrily, and turned on the faucet Start pouring water into the sink.

"Xinger, don't scare yourself because of your anger. If you can't swim, you can't swim. Dad won't laugh at you." He Tongda picked up his pipe helplessly, not understanding why this precious girl suddenly wanted to learn to swim. Swimming is probably a child's whim, and I forget it when I wake up.
