Chapter 390: Peppa Pig

Adair seems to give it a thought and then he shakes his head, “Mum didn’t teach me this, but I have
seen her doing this before. The food is really delicious; it would be a waste to throw them away.”

In fact, Lily never feed him with leftovers all along, it’s just that sometimes she will order too much in
one seating, and coupled with the fact that she’s not well off in the beginning. This has trained her to be
thrifty since those leftovers could fill her hungry stomach later on.

Although he knows this, Rex is still feeling uneasy.

Without comparing to other children, his son should be one of a kind even in all of J City. But now, he is
even more normal than most children.

His maturity beyond his age makes him regret and blame himself. From the time he was born, Rex was
never part of his growing up journey, and time can’t be reversed. What’s gone is gone.

Rex lifts his hand and touches the child’s face, “These food won’t be as delicious when it’s cold, and it’s
not very healthy too. If you really like them, uncle will bring you here again next time, is that okay?”

Adair doesn’t insist, after listening to his words he immediately compromises, “Alright.”

Rex’s swallows hard while pushing down the rising guilt and sadness, “Next time, uncle will bring you
and mother together.”

“Then you need to ask my mum, she won’t necessarily agree to it.” Adair blinks hard. He’s no longer as
rigid as he used to be in the beginning.

Rex smiles faintly and wipes the corners of his mouth gently. Then he pays the bills and exits the
restaurant.



One of them is tall while the other is short; one is huge while the other is tiny. The man is mature and
striking, while the child looks smart too. The father and son immediately attract a lot of attention the
moment they steps out of the restaurant. Especially the Maybach parked nearby, it is very eye-
catching.

Adair is the one who is envious of other children all along, but now he is experiencing envious gaze by
onlookers for the first time in his life. His pace quickens as he feels a strange pride.

Having a ‘father’ such as Rex doesn’t sound like a bad idea at all.

After getting into the car, Rex straps the seatbelt for him gently before stepping on the gas pedal lightly.
The sports car speeds forward with a ‘vroom’ sound.

The car instantly disappears into the distance. In the car, he connects his phone to the car with
Bluetooth as he calls his friends one by one.

When they learn that they are going to watch a movie, several of them immediately reject him, but once
they know his son is coming, they change their mind and agree to come. This is especially true for Karl;
he instantly grabs his car key and darts out of his house.

Rex leads the kid to the cinema, and the manager there is waiting for them with a VIP screening room
ticket. When he pushes open the door to the resting area, three massive men are already there sitting
together. They turn their head towards them at the sight of their arrival, and then they simultaneously
look at Adair on his side.

They are stunned on the spot when they lay their eyes on him.

He’s… he’s practically identical to Rex! It is as if they are carved from the same mould.



Pehry is the first to react, he struts to the child’s side and swallows hard while saying, “You, you must
be Rex’s so… oh!”

Before he can finish the word ‘son’, he’s bashed by Karl with a pillow.

Pehry turns around and complains, “Karl, why did you hit me?”

Karl is fuming right now as he doesn’t want to stand on his side. He approaches him and scolds him in
a soft voice audible only to the two of them, “You damn brat! Rex still hasn’t reconciled with the child
yet!”

Pehry immediately understands as he nods continuously, “My memory has failed me, it’s my bad!”

He is just too excited when he sees the kid.

“That’s enough, stop blabbering, you’ll scare the child.” Orson catapults the coffee paper cup in his
hands into the trash can and walks towards them. Although he seems composed, he never moves his
gaze from Adair.

They are all bachelors without any experience with children. When they lay eyes on ‘Little Rex’, they
can’t contain their excitement.

Adair stares at the tall and slender uncles in front of him and recognizes that they are similar to Rex.
They are all tall and exuding an impressive aura, which is different from the adults he is normally
exposed to.

Despite that, the child is not intimidated, instead he just watches them carefully, and immediately opens
his mouth and produces a crisp voice, “Hi, uncles.”

“Fuck!” Pehry blurts out some vulgar words, but he immediately clamps his mouth, “Look at me, I’m
spouting nonsense now!”



Karl and Orson are both speechless at him.

Rex snaps at him, “You’d better shut up.”

Pehry instantly slaps himself on his cheeks and says, “…I’m just too excited.”

Adair silently watches their interaction, although he doesn’t really understand what they are talking
about, he knows they are talking about him. He scans Pehry who is quite good-looking and praises
him, “You are the most handsome person I’ve ever seen.”

Pehry widens his eyes as he points at himself, “Did you hear that? Did you hear that? He said that I’m
the best-looking person he’s ever seen!”

Karl twitches his mouth and says, “Child, next time you can visit my clinic to check your eyesight.”

Adair shrugs slightly, “My mum has brought me to check my eyesight before, and they are fine.”

A faint curve appears at the corner of Rex’s mouth. The child’s interaction with these adults is more
interesting that he thought. He slips a hand across his legs and holds him by his back, carrying him up
into his embrace easily. He introduces them one by one, “This is Uncle Orson, he’s in the same field as
your mum as a lawyer; this is Uncle Karl, he’s working in the hospital, and this is Uncle Pehry…”

Rex stops at this point, contemplating how to describe the nature of his work to the child. He can’t tell
the child that this person is running a night club.

Suddenly, Pehry intervenes him, “I’m in the general entertainment industry.”

“…”

This is alright; he has to give it to him for this one being able to transform his club into something
impressive.



Adair memorizes the details one by one. He is smart beyond his years, and that can be seen from his
bright eyes. He’s not the annoying type but rather he is always composed and cool-headed.

Karl can’t help whispering into Rex’s ears, “Rex, the child does resemble you, not only his face looks
the same, the way he carries himself is identical too.”

Rex just smiles at this without saying anything, but it is obvious that he’s proud of the child. Of course
they will look almost the same, as they saying goes his son is a chip off the old block.

“Ah, since we’re going to watch movies, what are we watching later?” Pehry hands popcorn to the little
kid and says, “This is strawberry flavoured, try it.”

Adair accepts it and expresses his gratitude, “Thank you, uncle.”

“You’re welcome.”

Rex places the kid down and asks him patiently, “What do you want to watch?”

Adair doesn’t think long and hard before replying, “I want to watch the Adventure of Peppa Pig!”

The adults immediately sink into confusion. What did he say? The Adventure of Peppa Pig? What is
that about?

They have never heard of it before.

Rex’s eyelids flutter slightly as he starts to feel uneasy. Despite that, he repeats his question patiently,
“What movie are you talking about?”
