And why would she say that?
It was simple. She tried reading middle school and high school textbooks. She could understand the content from Grade 8 books but was completely clueless when it came to high school texts. Furthermore, 12 to 13 year olds looked like little children to her but teens older than the age of 14 did not.
Plus, teens around the age of 14 had quite a good mental capability, similar to the one she was born with in this life.
She could still remember the time where her father carried her behind his back while he cooked.
She also remembered when he had held her in his arms as he ran to the hospital. At that time, her high fever wasnât going down and foam was starting to bubble in her mouth. Her father was worried sick and was on the verge of tears. He didnât sleep the entire night as he waited for her fever to subside.
She also recalled his reaction when she told him the feeling of disgust she felt when a grandfather of one of her kindergarten classmates touched her a little. The usual gentle and polite man suddenly stormed out of the kitchen with a huge fruit knife in hand.
Later on, he knelt down in front of her with swollen red eyes and told her that he hoped sheâd tell him if anyone were to ever bully her, regardless of who the person was.
Back then she remembered being very shocked to see the devious look in his eye. She even asked him, âPapa, are you going to kill someone? What if you end up in jail?â
He smiled and ruffled her hair gently. He told her in a deep voice that he would avenge her at all costs.
To Luo Shuyan, he was her irreplaceable father who had taken care of her over the past six years. Her father was still young and he had a long life to live. One day, she would grow up, become independent, and possibly start a family of her own. She couldnât expect her father to stay single for the rest of his life, could she? Familial love canât replace romantic love, she wanted her father to have someone to rely on too.
After gathering her thoughts and making up her mind, Luo Shuyan calmly asked, âIs the lady from today papaâs girlfriend?â
Luo Tianyuan was anxious and didnât know how to answer her.
In actuality, Song Wanqing wasnât his girlfriend yet. However, it didnât seem responsible for him to deny their relationship either.
Luo Tianyuan, whose mind was in shambles, remained silent.
Luo Shuyan chuckled and said, âPapa, you have to take responsibility for your actions. Yes means yes and no means no.â
Luo Tianyuan was at a loss when he recalled the hug that they shared the other night. He nodded and said, âYes.â
âOh!â Luo Shuyan exclaimed and crossed her arms in front of herself.
âIf you donât like the fact that papa has a girlfriend, papa canâ¦â
Before Luo Tiayuan managed to finish his sentence, his daughter stared at him with wide eyes and said, âPapa will break up with his girlfriend? Thatâs too much, I donât think thatâs right.â
The young girlâs voice was crisp and clear. Luo Tianyuan felt like he was talking to an adult, though, he was completely used to it by now, so he didnât accidentally break out into laughter.
No one was more important to him than his daughter.
âOld man Luo, youâre still young, itâs normal to have a girlfriend.â Luo Shuyan comforted him and patted him on the shoulder. âJust like how Iâll have a boyfriend when I grow up, itâs just part of the course of life. So donât worry, I wonât be angry, as long as your girlfriend doesnât treat me badly for no reason!â
The poor father was almost in tears when he heard what she had to say.
Luo Tianyuan was so thankful for such an understanding and empathetic daughterâ¦
No, wait!
Luo Tianyuan suddenly took notice of the part of her statement where she said â âIâll have a boyfriend when I grow upâ. He wiped away his touched expression and fixed his eyes on her.
âBoyfriend? Whatâs that all about?â
ââ¦.?â Luo Shuyan was caught between a rock and hard place.
She had been careless.
She realized that her father was likely not ready for âthe day where his daughter falls in love and marries a stinky manâ.
â
Luo Shuyan had left the Shen familyâs home in a hurry. She had a habit of munching on tidbits while she did her homework, so a few pieces of milk candy were still left scattered across the table.
When Shen Yan cleaned the table, he took note of the rooster printing on the candy packaging.

There were a few transparent jars on the high table in the living area. These were jars of milk candies and imported fruit candies that Luo Tianyuan had brought home with him from one of his business trips. Shen Yan didnât like sweets, so it was all Luo Shuyanâs to keep.
Luo Shuyan didnât know that he had been helping her sort her candies everyday. He placed the fruit and milk candies into their respective jars.
Luo Shuyan also didnât know the fact that he grew absolutely furious when he caught his momâs friendâs son, who came over one day, stealing some candy from the jars.
âDonât touch that.â
âThose are her sweets!â
