Looking down at Melissa's innocent face, he refused without hesitation, "No... It's cold outside... "
Looking at the resolute expression on his face, Tracy hastily said, "Not cold... I've been out just now.
Look, how boring I am at home every day. Can you go out with me? " Tracy held his hand and shook it
like a child. Melissa grabbed the other hand of his and said, "Dad... Dad, the baby must be bored too.
We are going to the suburb this time. "
Brody's face became particularly serious. He frowned and looked at Melissa, his eyes full of refusal.
"No, you can go to the suburb in summer. Have you ever seen others go to the suburb in winter?"
Pouting her lips, Melissa said unhappily, "Although it's winter now, it hasn't snowed yet. We can't go out
to play after it snows. "
With a darkened face, Brody looked at the stubborn Melissa and said harshly, "Melissa... It's winter
vacation. What did you promise dad? "
Melissa widened her eyes and looked at Brody. Obviously, she didn't understand what he meant. She
stared at him for a long time, but she didn't think of it. She looked at him innocently for a long time and
said pitifully, "What? What did Melissa promise dad? "
Holding his arm, Tracy secretly looked at the naughty expression on Melissa's face. Children were the
most playful. She had said last time that she was not allowed to play during winter vacation, which
might have been forgotten by her.
Seeing the innocent look on her face, Brody pulled a long face, glared at her and said coldly, "Have you
forgotten it after only a few months?"
Not to be outdone, Melissa retorted, "Dad, you're so boring. It's been a few months. How can you
remember it?"
Seeing the serious look on his face, Tracy hurriedly said, "Honey. Just take us out. It was very cold a
few days ago. Today is a good day. Listen to Melissa and let's go to the countryside to relax. "
Brody frowned, turned his head and said seriously, "You don't understand, do you? It's cold outside. It's
not safe to play outside. "
Tracy frowned unhappily, lowered her head and said unhappily, "I said I'm fine. I'll pay attention to it, but
it's really boring to stay at home like this every day!"
"Mom said she would take Melissa to the entertainment center today!" After hearing that, Brody was
startled. Then he turned his head and stared at Tracy, who looked indifferent, "What do you want to
do?"
His low voice made Tracy realize the danger in his words. She raised her head and forced a smile at
him. "Don't be nervous. I just told her casually at that time. My belly is so big. How could I do those
violent exercises?"
As Tracy spoke, she lost her confidence. As the look on his face became colder and colder, Tracy had
to shut up and didn't dare to say anything more. Then, he turned his head to glare at Melissa and said
seriously, "I told you last time that there is no winter vacation this year!"
Hearing what Brody said, the smile on the girl's face suddenly froze. She wanted to act like a spoiled
child at the first time, but when she saw his increasingly stern face, she stopped.
Brody stared at Melissa seriously and said, "Go to study!"
Melissa was very unhappy to hear that. She muttered, "You want me to study all day long. I have
become a bookworm. If I don't want to be a bookworm, why don't I practice the piano?" After saying
that, the little girl ran to the piano rack and climbed to the chair. Seeing this, Tracy could only hold onto
his arm, but she was still a little unwilling to give up. "Honey, don't be unreasonable. We just go to the
countryside to have a walk. Let's go to the suburb!"
With an expressionless face, Brody didn't move a little because of Tracy's soft attitude. Helplessly, he
took Tracy's hand and said in a low voice, "You can't be so willful. You need to think about everything
during your pregnancy. The weather is so cold. If you catch a cold, you will be ill in the future. Aren't
you tired with such a big baby in your belly? "
Tracy pouted, "Then I won't be tired if you hold me!"
Brody smiled helplessly. He pinched her face and said with a smile, "You are so heavy. How can I lift
you?" Tracy turned her head sulkily, pretending to be angry, and said, "Forget it if you don't like it!"
Seeing that she was really going to be angry, Brody hurriedly coaxed, "Then, let me think... When it is
March or April, isn't it just the right time? " Tracy turned her head to look at his indifferent face. Next
March? April?
"But I want to go out now. It will be inconvenient for me to have a baby next year!"
"Take her with you!" Brody said indifferently. Frowning, Tracy stared at him and said, "She is only a
child in March next year. Can she go out?" "Let's talk about it next year. You can't go anywhere except
for the yard. Besides, isn't it different from the countryside?"
Tracy looked at him unhappily, "It's different anyway!" Brody looked at her nervously. Tracy had to hold
his arm and said like a spoiled child, "well, I won't go! Then... Can I go to my own yard? "
Brody's eyebrows finally relaxed. That's more like it!
Holding onto his arm, Tracy turned her head to take a look at Melissa before she left. Then she said,
"Melissa, you should practice the piano carefully, or you can go to study!" Tracy's implication was very
obvious. She either played the piano, or went to do homework. Anyway, she couldn't go to play!
"Well, I know." Melissa stared at the music book on the piano rack and said without looking back. But in
the bottom of her heart, she muttered unhappily, 'Humph, traitor, we have agreed to go out together, but
in the end, I don't even have my vacation.'
It was not until then that Tracy was satisfied with the result. She was about to open the door, but the
door creaked open. Both of them were stunned and stood still, looking at the tall figure blocking the
door. After being in a daze for a long time, Tracy shouted in astonishment, "Ben."
Tracy looked at him in confusion. His face was expressionless, and it was obvious that he was hostile.
Tracy turned her head foolishly to look at Brody. Brody was staring at Ben with a cold face, and the
atmosphere suddenly became very tense, as if an arrow was on the string.
Seeing this, Tracy secretly pulled the sleeve of Brody and looked at Ben with a smile. "Ben, what's
wrong?" As soon as Tracy finished her words, Brody pulled Tracy behind him. She had no choice but to
look at the two people with a stiff face. Moreover, Ben came aggressively. What was he going to do?
Brody's face was cold. He stared at Ben and said coldly, "Mr. Yan, what brings you here?" Ben didn't
say anything. He looked at Brody calmly and said, "You're flattering me!"
Brody's eyebrows twitched and said indifferently, "Okay, let's get straight to the point. What's the
matter?"
With a smile, Ben said, "we both know why I'm here. Do you think it's necessary to waste your time?"
Brody said coldly, "I really don't know!"
Tracy stood silently behind Brody, letting him hold her hand tightly. She was at a loss when she saw the
tension between them. What's more, their conversation made her confused as if she didn't understand
anything, so she couldn't get in the conversation and didn't want to interrupt them.
