Chapter 391: Frustration of the Nanny Daddy

“The Peppa Pig!” Adair takes it for granted that everyone knows what he is talking about. When Rex's
expression shows that he doesn’t really know what Adair is talking about, Adair scornfully asks, “Don’t
tell me you didn’t know about Peppa Pig, Uncle Rex?”

Rex shakes his head, “That’s impossible. I know who’s Peppa Pig.”

That’s the only answer he could give, isn’t it? Or else how would he maintain his image in front of his
child?

What Rex didn’t expect is that Adair throws another question to him, “Then tell me, what’s the name of
Peppa Pig’s brother?”

“…” Rex starts sweating. He hasn't even heard about Peppa Pig before today, how else would he know
what’s the name of its brother? But he takes a wild guess anyway, “It’s David or something?”

“No, you’re wrong,” Adair’s smile disappears and is replaced by the look of disliking Rex for being so
‘uneducated’.

Meanwhile, Pehry quickly searches for the answer on the internet. It’s the first time he got so anxious
looking at the loading page. Luckily, the answer shows at last. He immediately responds to Adair’s
question, “His name is George!”

He then quickly hides his phone, trying not to let Adair see it.

“You’re right!” Adair looks at Pehry in a look full of excitement, as if he has found his league, “Uncle
Pehry watched Peppa Pig too?”

“Yes, I like Peppa Pig a lot.” In fact, Pehry never watches the show before. He is too busy to watch
television programs. He has only heard of Peppa Pig but he wants to gain Adair’s favour, so he acts
like he is a fan of the show. “I’m very updated, alright?”



Karl couldn’t stand Pehry’s pretentious acts. He pokes him from behind and says, “Stop it.”

However, Orson is thinking about other stuff.

“Are you really going to watch a cartoon show?”

Rex nods without any embarrassment, “If Adair wants to watch a cartoon show, then I will watch with
him.”

Orson is speechless. A man in his 30s abandoning his work just to watch a cartoon show with a child.
He, himself wouldn’t have believed that it’s true, let alone other people.

But what else can he do? They are already here. Looking at Rex happily and proudly accompanying
Adair, he let him be.

So, four men and a child walk into the VIP screening theatre. The difference between the VIP
screening theatre and a normal theatre is that their seats are like a single-seated sofa. It is adjustable,
so they could sit at any angle they are comfortable in.

It feels very empty for a huge hall as they are the only audiences in the screening theatre. However, the
feeling is chased away when the show starts.

The fine screen and Dolby Atmos Surround Sound Technology displays the best of image quality.
However, instead of concentrating on the colourful characters and what they say, the adults space out.

Rex isn’t in the mood of watching the cartoon show. He lowers his seat, enjoys his popcorns, and
watches Adair, who puts all his attention into the show.

He could see happiness in Adair’s innocent eyes when the lights from the screen shine on his face.



As long as Adair is happy, he is happy. He would do anything for him. Watching a show he isn’t
interested in is nothing. He could watch ten if Adair wants.

A selfish thought comes across his mind. If only the show duration is longer, he could spend more time
with Adair. Even if they are not doing anything, Rex would still be happy as long as they are together.
But sadly, it is too much to expect.

Karl sees the way Rex looks at Adair. He pauses then shakes his head, “If only Lily could see the way
Rex pampers Adair.”

The two people love each other but keep tormenting themselves. Isn’t relationship the hardest thing in
the world?

The show goes on. Whenever there’s a funny scene, Adair laughs along. Although he isn’t loud, people
could feel his happiness just by looking at him.

When the show is about to come to the end, Rex starts planning where they should go next. However,
an accident happens.

Adair puts his popcorns aside, bows, and presses on his tummy. His handsome face crumples as if he
is in great pain.

Rex notices Adair isn’t well. His frowns, “Are you alright? Tell me what’s wrong.”

“My…My tummy…It hurts…” Adair sounds weak.

“Is it a sudden pain?”

“Yes…”



Rex immediately orders the staff to pause the show and turn on the lights. Adair’s face is so pale that it
makes the new nanny daddy panics, “Where does the pain come from?”

“Here.” Adair points at his stomach. The pain causes him to gasp for air.

Karl notices something isn’t right. He approaches Adair to check on him. Adair screams a little when
Karl places his hand on his tummy. Before Karl could do anything else, Rex stops him.

“He’s in pain. Stop pressing.”

Karl knows that Rex is just being too concern, he explains in patience, “I’m just doing a simple check-
up.”

“Do it another way.”

“…” Karl sees how Rex cares about Adair. He stops his procedure and comforts Adair, “Adair, you’re a
good boy. Now, listen to Uncle Karl. Try to inhale and exhale slowly. Uncle Karl will send you to the
hospital right away.”

The accident happens out of sudden that nobody could have seen that. Pehry and Orson are in shock
as well. They both follow them to Karl’s Hospital.

Karl is like their entry pass. They wouldn’t need to line up or wait too long to get the blood test result.
The result shows there’s nothing wrong with Adair. The only problem is that he had too much food in
the morning and before he could digest them, he ate a lot of popcorns in the theatre. So it causes
indigestion and cramps in the stomach.

Karl gives Adair some digestants and a drip to soothe his stomach before releasing him.



Rex turns away as he couldn’t bear to see the cold and thick needle pokes under Adair’s skin. He feels
the pain as if he is the one getting the needle.

Pehry looks at Adair in guilt, “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have let you eat popcorns.”

Adair lies in the hospital bed, being covered by a blanket. He shakes his head and says, “Don't blame
yourself. Mommy has already warned me not to eat too much.”

Lily had already scolded him for having too much snack before this. Today she isn’t here and with Rex
being a Yes-man, he loses control.

Karl takes a look around, “You guys should leave. Rex and I will be here. Don’t worry.”

Even if they stay behind, Orson and Pehry couldn’t help much. Furthermore, Adair could feel uneasy if
there are too many people watching him. So they decide to leave after making sure Adair is really
alright. Then, there are only three of them left in the quiet ward.

Karl pats Rex’s shoulder and signals him to walk to the entrance of the ward, “Should we inform Lily?”

After all, she is the mother of the child. Adair is in the hospital now. It will not be very nice if she hears it
from Adair later.

When talking about Lily, Rex feels uncertain, “If I tell her about this, she would probably kill me.”

“I don’t think it is as bad as you think. It’s nothing severe at all.” Karl is so used to being the mediator
between Rex and Lily. He comforts Rex, “Telling her the truth is always better than letting her find out
by herself. Or maybe, I could help to put in some good words for you.”

Although Rex doesn’t really want to let Lily knows what happened to Adair, he knows he couldn’t dodge
the fact that Adair is in the hospital for long. Rex would rather do as Karl says now than waiting for her
to find out about it herself and creates more misunderstanding between them.



He has only been with Adair for just a day and Adair ends up in the hospital. Rex feels defeated. He
takes out his phone and stares at the screen for almost half a minute before he makes up his mind to
dial out that familiar sets of number.
