The female supporting role in Quick Wear fell in love at first sight again

Chapter 136 The Substitute Little Princess 23

At the beginning, Tao Yao thought there was still hope for the original owner's leg, but as time went on, she underwent five operations, big and small, and the results were always unsatisfactory every time she came off the operating table.

Now she has become accustomed to sitting in a wheelchair, and even needs help to go to the toilet every day. But what else can she do? She used to think that even if modern medicine could not restore her legs, she could secretly use some special skills, but she was naive.

The dog system told her that if she used the items in the system mall to return to normal, the Heavenly Dao would notice the abnormality and she would then be rejected by the world consciousness.

Edward's slightly cool fingers gently stroked the ugly scar, then he lowered his head and gave it a kiss. He looked up at Tao Yao devoutly.

"It's okay, Chris, it's not ugly. I think it's beautiful. It's as strong and brave as you. Let's try again, okay? Just for your own good."

Taoyao's nose felt sore, and she was hesitating about what to do.

There was a knock on the door.

"Chris, can Mommy come in?"

Edward looked at Taoyao, waiting for her answer. Taoyao was silent for a few seconds and then nodded slowly.

"Sure, come in, Mom."

After hearing Taoyao's voice, Anna pushed open the door and saw Edward massaging Taoyao's calves. Edward looked focused and his technique was skillful.

These years since she was adopted by the orphanage, she has been very busy every day and has basically no time to accompany Chris. It is Edward who takes care of her. But it is undeniable that Edward takes good care of her. He gives her massages every day, takes her for walks, and sometimes even gives her lessons to keep her company.

She accepted Edward from the bottom of her heart and treated him as her own son. Edward was more responsible than her biological mother. She sometimes felt ashamed. She really owed too much to Chris.

"Chris, Mom has been too busy lately and hasn't been able to spend much time with you. Aunt Pauline and Field said they'll be coming over for dinner tonight. Can Mom comb your hair for you?"

Tao Yao was still thinking about what Edward had just said, and her expression was still a little dazed. Anna thought that Tao Yao was unhappy because of her neglect, and she felt even more upset, as if she had done something wrong.

At first, she thought that taking over the orphanage would protect the children from Catherine's abuse, but she seemed to have forgotten that Chris also needed her mother's care and protection, especially since she had been kidnapped and was more sensitive than other children.

Anna smiled gently, holding a comb in her hand and preparing to carry Taoyao to sit on the dressing table.

Taoyao has grown a lot, and it is still a little difficult for Anna to pick her up now.

Tao Yao skillfully stretched out her arms towards Edward, "Edward, carry me over."

Edward picked her up and placed her on the stool of the dressing table. Anna smiled awkwardly.

Then he picked up the comb and combed Taoyao's hair. Edward stood quietly behind, looking at Taoyao in the mirror.

The eighteen-year-old girl was like a peach, with rosy cheeks, reddish-brown curly hair covering her slender back like a cloud of mist, and green eyes as bright as twinkling stars in the dark.

Anna looked at the girl in the mirror with satisfaction. Her Chris was so beautiful, even more beautiful than when she was young. Time passed so quickly. In the blink of an eye, she had become a graceful young lady.

"Chris, there's a dance tomorrow night, and Field has invited you to be his dance partner. Do you want to go? If you don't feel comfortable going, you don't have to. There are so many people at the dance, and what if something goes wrong?"

Tao Yao sighed helplessly. She really didn't like Anna treating her like a fragile porcelain doll. She knew she was afraid of getting hurt, but this made her feel more and more different from others. Was it because she had disabled legs that she didn't deserve to have a normal life?

Tao Yao rested her head on the walnut-colored dressing table, fiddling with the hairpins in the jewelry box with her fingers.

"I'm not going. I can't walk, and I can't dance if I go. I'll be laughed at, so forget it."

Anna could hear her tone of loss and her mood was not right. She knew she had just said the wrong thing again, and she hurriedly explained to Tao Yao.

"Chris, you know Mom didn't mean that. Mom was just too worried about you. I was afraid something might happen to you. I was too scared. I don't mean to dislike you. Don't think too much."

Anna was a little anxious. The more anxious she was, the easier it was for the comb in her hand to get tangled. When she exerted force, Tao Yao felt her scalp being pulled and it hurt.

She covered her hair and forced a smile at Anna to comfort her.

"Mom, I know you don't mean that. Let Edward comb my hair."

Anna helplessly gave the comb in her hand to Edward, and sighed in disappointment as she looked at Taoyao.

"Chris, I'm going to go down first. I'll make you your favorite cream of mushroom soup, okay?"

Taoyao nodded, "Okay."

After Anna left, Edward carefully took Taoyao's hair out of the comb, then held it gently in his hand and slowly combed it down. He moved very carefully for fear of hurting Taoyao, as if he was treating a precious gem, afraid that it would be bumped.

"Edward, do you think I'm too harsh? I don't want to treat her like that, but I can't control my temper. I used to support her career and pursuits, but over the years she's given all her love to other children, and has spent less and less time with me."

"Before, I always thought that even though I couldn't walk, I had you and mom by my side. You took care of me and loved me, and I felt incredibly satisfied. But now everything seems to have changed. You have your own life and friends, and mom has children in the orphanage to take care of. It seems like I'm the only one staying at home every day, unable to do anything."

Edward skillfully braided the combed hair into small braids and then fixed them with pearl hairpins. His eyes were always looking at the beautiful girl in the mirror.

"Chris, we all love you very much. You are the most important in my heart. I will never abandon you. You are my princess and I am your knight. I was born to protect you."

Tao Yao looked at his affectionate sapphire eyes and felt a little touched. She had to say that Edward was really handsome. It was hard for anyone not to be moved by his face.

Field was sitting at the dining table in a suit. Anna and Pauline were chatting. He felt a little bored. He had been very busy in recent years. He was promoted too quickly, forcing him to grow rapidly. It was not easy to be a politician who was good at dealing with everyone.

When he woke up in the middle of the night, he would always think of that young and innocent face. She was like a beautiful butterfly, leaving an indelible mark in his heart.

The myriad thoughts in Field's mind gradually came back to him with the sweet female voice.

"Field, the skirt you gave me a few days ago was too small. Did you give me the skirt you gave to someone else?"
