Mu Chen pursed his lips together and calmly comforted himself.
Heâs not angry.
Heâs not jealous.
Whatâs so amazing about having a daughter?
Ye Niannian saw Mu Chenâs gloomy face and boldly approached him. âUncle...â
He tilted his innocent and naive face up and asked, âDo you eat lemons1?â
Mu Chen: â...â
The man expressionlessly pushed Ye Niannianâs face away and a smile that didnât reach the bottom of his eyes appeared on his face, âLittle friend.â
âDo you drink vinegar1? Do you drink sulfuric acid?â
Ye Niannian: â....â No need for that.
âAh hahaha, I suddenly remembered that thereâs a contract I need to negotiate for my company, weâll go first.â Mr. Ye maintained an awkward smile on his face and grabbed his kid, walking towards the door as if there was wind carrying him.
This brat always says such astonishing lines.
Canât he see that Mu Chen wanted to beat him up?
Mr. Su quickly grabbed the dumbfounded Su Ruirui and laughed, âI also remembered that Iâve got to grab food with someone in the afternoon, Iâll leave too.â
The noisy Mu family immediately quieted down.
Mu Chen looked up and saw Housekeeper Mu staring outside the door, looking unwilling to let them go.
The man looked down without expressions and humphed coldly.
The unhappiness in his heart grew even stronger.
âClose the door.â His face was cold and sounded distant too.
Housekeeper Mu nodded. As he was about to close the door, the little thing suddenly revealed her round head from behind it.
Mu Chen said scornfully, âWhy are you back? Didnât you go with your dad?â
The little thing heard his deriding tone of voice and pouted slightly, âI-I forgot my dog.â
She turned away and jogged to the study, then came out happily with a puppy in her arms under Mu Chenâs disbelief.
âGood doggie!â The little thing nudged against it and comforted the exploding puppy.
Mu Chen saw the dog and almost exploded too, âYe Sang!â
He suddenly raised his voice, and the little thingâs strand of hair swayed in fear as she quickly ran outside.
â...â
âExplain! Where did you get this dog from?!â
The only reply he got was a view of the little thingâs back.
Mu Chen: â...â
This brat!
As the little girl left again, the mansion sank into silence again.
Housekeeper Mu and the maids on the side all glanced outside the door, looking rather unhappy.
â...â
Mu Chen grinded his teeth and felt sullen to see all the maids looking at the door.
Isnât she just a kid?
It was much quieter without her.
Stop looking at the door.
...
Shen Chuchen couldnât experience how complicated and sullen Mu Chen felt.
He was hugging his daughter when he touched the little bag on her waist.
The man paused slightly and suddenly remembered the grandpas she had.
âLittle thing.â Shen Chuchen pinched her cheeks lazily and narrowed his eyes, âWho are your grandpas?â
He touched his chin and smiled, âGrandpa Mu? Hmm?â
âNumber one?â
His tone of voice was chilling.
Usually, when villains start to talk like this, it wouldnât end too well for the protagonist.
The little thing wasnât afraid at all and even swayed her legs as she replied, âYes!â
Shen Chuchen sneered and pinched her round face, âThen do you know what they are called?â
â...â Ye Sang froze at the question.
The hair on top of her head swayed as she shook her head while blinking.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âGrandpa is number one...â
Shen Chuchen nodded with difficulty. â...â Fine.
This was the only thing the little girl remembered.
The man sighed in exhaustion and picked up the little bun. A soft little ball of a girl swayed her legs leisurely and he found it healing for no reason.
âIâll take you to the amusement park tomorrow?â Shen Chuchen smiled and asked in a low voice.
Ye Sang nodded happily as she dragged her voice on, softness filled each word, âOkayyy.â
Shen Chuchenâs eyes smiled and he was much happier.
He didnât have much experience in taking care of a child either.
But he was much better than Huo Yao and Mu Chen.
The man patiently patted the little thingâs back and looked down, comforting her lazily.
His delicate face became tranquil, and the gloominess and coldness that reached the bottom of his eyes ceased. The two of them looked exceptionally comforting and cozy.
Creatures like children could really soothe peopleâs grievance and malice sometimes.
...
Because Ye Sang was sick last night, she was sleepy.
She softly yawned and dove into her daddyâs arms, pouting slightly, and fell asleep soundly.
*
Ye Sang woke up from hunger at night.
She woke up in a newly decorated princess-themed room covered with soft carpet.
There were toys of all sizes piled up on her bed.
It was different from the Huo family. Huo Yao Daddyâs style was more simplistic and stylish, while Shen Chuchen was obviously much better at making his daughter happy compared to Huo Yao.
The puppy wagged its tail leisurely on the soft mattress.
God knows how long it had suffered at the Mu family.
Dog Mu didnât like pets and the heartless little thing had to hide it under her bed.
How could a human do that?
Ye Sang ran down the stairs and threw herself into Shen Chuchenâs arms.
âDaddy!â The little girlâs voice was soft and innocent.
âHmm?â Shen Chuchen paused for a second. Seeing that his daughter had woken up, he subconsciously picked her up into his arms and blinked with a smile, âHungry?â
Ye Sang nodded subconsciously and then slowly tilted her head to the side, looking at the other young boy in the room.
âBrodda...â Her voice became smaller and she shrank into her daddyâs arms.
Obviously, Ye Sang had a deep impression of this âhuman traffickerâ.
Shen Chuchen shot a side glance at Duan Jinyan as he didnât know what this stinky brat did to make her so scared.
The boy looked back innocently and smiled:
âSis, why are you scared?â
The little thing shrank her neck and blinked her eyes slightly silently.
Shen Chuchen didnât want to dig into it either. He picked up the child and raised his tone slightly, âDo you want to go to the amusement park?â
âWe can eat outside.â
Never mind eating at home.
He had always been a free eater. Most of the maids and housekeepers at home were trained shadow guards and had never cooked before.
They might as well eat outside.
