Chapter 147
Harold put his hands in his pockets and followed her lazily like a beast with a rope around its neck. He
looked docile but was actually cruel.
Dana, who was downstairs, saw that Crystal had pulled Harold down just like that. She wanted to laugh
but didn’t dare. She quickly turned her head away.
Although Bernard was only four years old, there was no need for adults to worry about him eating. He
seriously picked up a spoon and ate the rice. Harold looked at Crystal and smiled. “Why are you not
even as good as a child?”
As he spoke, he leaned over and gently rubbed his finger against Crystal’s lips. The rice that stuck to
her mouth was wiped away. Crystal coughed and felt a little embarrassed. She was trying to find an
explanation, but Harold had already said, “I forgot that you are also a child.”
He picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and put it into Crystal’s bowl. He looked at her second

Crystal pinched the soft flesh on her stomach and said sadly, “I don’t know… I also think that I’m
wasting food.”
“I’ll take you to the hospital another day.” Harold looked at her and said, “You should see a pediatrician,
but I don’t think the hospital has seen a 19-year-old child before.”
Crystal was speechless.
Crystal put down her chopsticks. “I’m going to get angry.”
Harold said, “What if you get angry?”
Crystal thought for a moment and said, “… I don’t think I can do anything, but I still have to tell you that
I’m angry.”
Harold smiled. “Okay, I won’t tease you anymore. Let’s eat.”
Crystal finished the rest of the meal angrily.
There was some homework given by the teacher in the kindergarten, all of which were practical. The
teacher asked the parents to introduce their children to at least three kinds of trees, probably to
cultivate the parent-child relationship between the children and the parents.
Since Alissa was not around, Crystal had no choice but to carry heavy responsibilities. It was a pity that
although she grew up in the countryside and had been used to seeing flowers and plants since she
was a child, knowing all kinds of trees on the streets, such as cypress trees, pine trees, and ginkgo
trees, she did not recognize any of the trees planted in Flower Land.
Crystal was speechless.
Bernard looked at Crystal expectantly. “Sister, what kind of tree is this?”
Crystal didn’t know what to say.
Crystal felt a little embarrassed, but she was brave enough to admit that she was ignorant. She said,
“I’ll ask Master White to teach you. He must know the tree.”
Bernard was afraid of Harold, but it seemed more terrifying if he could not submit his homework. He
could only nod.

“What’s wrong? Did you see a caterpillar in the garden and got frightened?”
Upon hearing his words, Larry was no longer sleepy. “Crystal called? Is she afraid of the caterpillar?”
Harold ignored him.
Crystal whispered, “… It’s not a caterpillar. I’m not afraid of it. I… I don’t know the trees here, so I want
you to teach Bernard…”
Harold said, “My time is very expensive.”
Crystal said, “That’s fine then…”
Harold stood up and saw Crystal squatting on the side of the road with a sad face. He smiled
unconsciously and said, “Since you’re my fiancee, I’ll give it to you for free this time.”
“…?” Larry said, “Harold, are you a human? You don’t care about the business worth billions and you’re
going to help a child with his homework?”
Harold said, “I don’t know if I’m a human, but you’re definitely not.”
Larry was speechless.
