Su Ye: â???â
The little thing saw herself as a cup of milk tea and stood there wobbly, trying not to fall.
Milk tea would be spilled if she fell down.
And she would be gone.
Even though Ye Sang was drunk, her train of thought was still clear.
Su Ye: ââ¦â
This kid got drunk and imagined that she was milk tea?
And tried to stand up so that she wonât spill herself?
What kind of logic is that?
Su Ye almost laughed out loud at her actions.
âOi, wake up, you are not a cup of milk tea.â The manâs lips curved up and tried to call her consciousness back.
But, it was obvious that Ye Sang wasnât sober enough. The little girl stood up straight carefully and Su Ye didnât know what else she was seeing.
Finally, she chose to lay on her stomach for safety issues.
Yep.
Thatâs right.
She laid on her stomach.
Su Ye: ââ¦â No one could understand what kind of breakdown he was having.
âStand up.â The man narrowed his eyes and said, âI donât have money to buy you new clothes.â
The little thing didnât listen to him and continued to lie on the ground.
Su Ye: ââ¦â
He laughed and didnât bother to make the white little ball stand up.
The man scrolled through the viral news while resting his chin in his hands, no one knew what he was thinking.
[Coach Ye Se said that the next world champion is theirs, tsk tsk tsk]
[Is HL insane now that God Suâs gone?]
[Ye LI and Xiao Fei are both free agents now, a good team broke apart and itâs a shame]
[If it wasnât for God Su, how would HL end up in a situation like this?]
(Hahaha, HL disbanded, letâs see which teamâs brave enough to take Su Ye in]
Su Ye crossed his legs lazily and narrowed his eyes while mumbling at Ye Sang: âIt looks like weâll really have to sleep on the streetsâ¦â
After HL disbanded, no other teams dared to take him.
He didnât care, but the child was too young.
Tskâ¦..
He never thought that he would have to go out there one day and make a living for his family.
Su Ye felt drunk.
They all said getting drunk would forget all the worries in the world.
But it was a lie.
He did not only not calm down, but the memories of his team competing from secondary league tournaments to the world championship became even clearer than before.
The big and small one were both drunk, the little thing laid on the floor without moving because she was a milk tea.
âDaddy-âYe Sang mumbled, âCan m-milk tea stand up now?â
Su Ye looked at her and laughed a little: â⦠Of course.â
Who told her that milk tea couldnât stand up? Ye Sang slowly lifted her head and stood up wobbly.
But she stumbled and fell into Su Yeâs arms.
The man quickly caught her and wanted to ask what she ate while growing up to be so silly yet cute.
Ye Sang cried and covered her head, âDaddy Daddy~â
Su Ye: â?Whatâs wrong now?â
The little thing pointed at her head and replied: âM-Milk tea spilled.â
Su Ye: ââ¦â
Ye Sang looked like the sky fell on her and he almost thought that something happened to her.
After this incident, Su Ye couldnât feel melancholy anymore. He scooped the pistachio [1]in his arms and smiled, âLetâs go little milk
tea.â
âUncle will put you to bed.â
Although he looked indifferent when she called her âDaddyâ, but he knew who he was and he didnât misguide the child.
He discovered that Ye Sang was quite different from normal children.
She was fast at learning and she could understand what adults say.
Sometimes, he even felt like she could see through things he couldnât see through.
âMilk teaâ fidgeted while looking dead. âI spilledâ¦â She looked dumbfounded, âIâm not clean anymore.â
Su Ye stumbled and almost knelt down.
How did she have so many shocking things to say?
The man pulled the blanket over her without expressions and spoke sounding drunk, âShut it and sleep.â
The little thing pouted. She nudged her head against the blanket and couldnât help but to speak before Su Ye closed his eyes, âDaddy.â
Her voice was clean and naive, âYou will win-â
âThe world champion is yours-â The little thing yawned and nudged deeper into the blanket.
Su Ye was taken aback by what she said. He pinched her soft face and asked with a smile: âHow do you know that?â
The little thing rolled to the side and whispered, âB-because Sangsang saw itâ¦â
The man smiled, âWhere did you see it from? Hmm?â
Su Ye thought that she watched the video of them before and didnât take it seriously.
But the little thing stared blankly for a second and replied: âIn my d-dream.â
Su Ye: ââ¦â
Then keep sleeping.
You can have everything in your dreams.
Su Ye was an extremely light sleeper and he had to wake up early for training games and competitions. Because they only had a few people, they had to line up in the morning to get breakfast and Su Ye was no exception. He rubbed his aching temples.
Looking at the soundly asleep child and sighed a little. He got out of bed lightly and stretched.
He looked at the delivery options on his phone and pondered how long he could raise this child for.
The reality proved that money wasnât almighty, but life canât continue without money.
Su Ye eventually picked up a hat and got up to buy breakfast. He was poor afterall.
It was impossible for him to go home. During the two years of competing professionally, he slept in a rented room before and had instant noodles three meals a day.
The man pulled the hat down but he was too worried to leave her alone at home, and he thought the cry baby would feel wronged if he woke her up, he decided to shove her into his arms.
âDaddy Daddyâ¦â The little thing called out softly and nudged him with her head. Su Ye replied lazily and closed the door, heading towards the closest breakfast place next to the hotel.
He bought some steamed buns and many people shifted their glances at him and looking away as if nothing happened.
There were quite a few adults who brought their children here for food, and Su Yeâs face definitely stood out. He looked down and let the hat cover his face completely.
The little girl was too sleepy and curled up in his arms like a puppy without any signs of waking up.
