Chapter 218: Chapter 218: The Call From Daddy

...

Su Ye stared at the little girl in his arms in silence as they left the zoo.

“Kid,” he suddenly said with a deep voice. It was difficult to identify his emotions as he lowered his gaze.

“Daddy,” the girl rubbed her eyes and responded.

Su Ye did not answer.

He hugged the kid and placed his lower jaw on her head. He looked elsewhere while lowering his eyes. It was hard to tell what was on his mind.

He would most likely have to leave for the venue in advance after they went back to the club tonight. After the match, he would have to face scoldings from all over the Internet while his team was gets disbanded.

He would be lying if he claimed that he did not have any feelings for his teammates after being together for two years.

Otherwise, he would not have bothered to agree with the match-fixing.

“I’ve only been with HL since I became a professional player,” the man smiled as he spoke with indistinguishable emotions.

“HL won’t exist anymore after the match.”

He was confused, lost, and insecure.

He had never felt so lost and empty before.

The little girl in his arms tilted her head to the side in fatigue. She had no idea why her father was feeling down.

Ye Sang nodded slightly. Her huge eyes were tearing up from a yawn.

Su Ye glanced at the kid who was like a tilting doll in his arms and chuckled, “Why did I even tell you all that?”

He must be out of his mind.

What would a kid know?

The little kid’s head sank into his arms. Her eyes glittered, “But a kid is suitable to be treated as a trash can.”

Su Ye was startled. He was amused by the girl, “What trash can?”

Such an interesting little kid...

Ye Sang swung her legs. She did not move around while she was being carried in his arms. She dragged her tone and said seriously, “Something you can dump all your unhappiness onto...”

She looked up with clear eyes, “Since kids will never treat what you say seriously...”

Sometimes, people did not need someone to understand them.

They just needed someone to listen to them.

Su Ye looked at the girl. He finally understood why the kid had described herself as a trash can.

He lifted his hand and hesitated for a moment. He patted the girl’s head and said indifferently, “Little trash can...”

“I’m not in a good mood now.”

The girl nodded obediently.

Daddy is not happy...

She must liven up the mood for her daddy...

The girl gave Su Ya a warm hug. She said with a serious look in her eyes despite her childish voice, “If they don’t want daddy, I’ll stay with you.”

Su Ye stared at the girl for a few seconds and smiled.

“Sure.”

“If they don’t want me, you must come with me.”

He sounded indifferent like usual.

However, Ye Sang, who was particularly sensitive toward humans’ emotions could sense her father’s helplessness.

He was left with no way out.

He would be doomed if he won, but he would be deserted by everyone if he lost.

The little girl let out a sigh. She remained still like a tiny bolster.

Ye Sang had no clue what her cheapskate father was thinking. He already saw her father number 1, but he did not send her away. He brought her back to the club instead.

His teammates could not believe their eyes.

Ye Li nudged Su Ye and said, “Brother Su, didn’t you say you were going to send her away?”

Why did he bring her back instead?

Su Ye lowered his gaze in silence.

He was prompted to keep the girl by a sudden impulse, but now he had decided not to give the girl back.

Xiao Fei was playing games on his phone. He said, “Brother Su, our match is tomorrow. Is it a good idea to bring the kid along?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

No one was going to look after her.

They could not just leave the girl at the hotel, right?

Su Ye looked at Wen Xuan and asked, “We have substitutes on our team, right? They can keep an eye on her.”

Wen Xuan scratched his head. He did not understand why God Su insisted to bring the kid along.

The coach came out of the practice room. He raised his brows when he saw Su Ye was back, “Is everyone here?”

“Are you done packing?”

Ye Li chuckled, “We did, Brother Su just came back.”

The coach said, “Let him pack then. We’ll be heading to the venue tonight.”

The rest of the team agreed. Su Ye did not want the team to wait for him. He immediately went to pack his clothes.

There was nothing much to bring anyway.

However, he remembered that he was going to leave for good after the match. He decided to pack all his stuff.

Including the team’s uniform...

“Daddy,” the girl ran to him and looked at him with glittering eyes. “I’ll help you pack.”

Su Ye looked at the girl thoughtfully. He raised his brows when he saw her holding a puppy, “Where is the puppy from?”

The puppy barked to vent its annoyance.

I’ve been here for the whole day, yet you’ve completely ignored me.

“Tsk...” Su Ye could not understand the puppy. He squinted and looked at Ye Sang who was wearing a faint blue dress. He suddenly called her, “Sang Sang...”

The girl looked up. She was confused.

“The two of you are so alike...”

Ye Sang: “...”

Revenge.

He must be getting his revenge.

Su Ye smiled. He did not say anything wrong.

The puppy was tiny enough to be carried in the arms. Her fur was white and curly and her eyes were black. She was actually quite similar to Ye Sang.

“She can be our mascot,” he pinched the girl’s face and said, “Let’s go.”

“We can just bring her along to be our mascot.”

Su Ye did not have the habit of folding his clothes. He shoved all his shirts and the valuables into the luggage.

He rubbed the kid’s hair, telling her he was ready to leave.

The man and the girl came out of the room. The others were already prepared to set off for the venue.

It was the girl’s first time leaving home. She was obviously going to miss it. She pouted and looked out of the window in deep thoughts.

Ye Li placed his hand under his chin. He tried searching for a topic, “Brother Su, the match is held in the center of the Capital. There are a lot of snacks there. Let’s bring Sang Sang along when we go out to have fun someday.”

Ye Sang’s eyes glittered at the mention of food. She then realized something and looked at her father. As she thought, the smile on the man’s face faded slightly. He tightened his hug around the girl without responding to the suggestion.

There would be no ‘someday.’

They might be parting ways after tomorrow.

The little girl curled up in the man’s arms. She had just chosen to fade away into the background when the smartwatch on her wrist started ringing.
