Chapter 575: Directly rush up and kiss, call her mom!_1

The meeting room was very quiet, the only sound being the clear crunching noises of a child munching on snacks.@@novelbin@@

The Manager, Wu, who was giving a presentation, couldn’t help but glance at the intricate little toddler time and again. How could a child be this adorable?

This child managed to awaken the girlish feelings within Wu, which he buried ages ago.

Little Pudding was busy gorging, but happened to catch Wu’s gaze. The little one grinned, “Would you like some chocolate, uncle?”

While Wu dared not answer, Little Pudding thought Wu wanted some and intended to offer him some chocolate. Nevertheless, due to short arms, the small one eventually climbed onto the conference table instead.

After a valiant struggle to reach Manager Wu, Little Pudding handed the chocolate over to him, adding, “Chocolate is really yummy.”

Wu only blamed himself for looking at the child more than necessary, which had now placed him in a predicament where he had no way out.

He wanted to accept but didn’t dare to, as Ye Qilan was staring at him as though he were a sworn enemy.

On the other hand, not accepting it also seemed cruel, given the child’s hopeful expression.

While Wu hesitated, Little Pudding unwrapped the chocolate and stuck it near his lips, “Uncle, eat it…”

In that moment of Wu’s discomfort, Ye Qilan stepped forward, pulling Little Pudding back to his side. Shooting Wu an icy glance that made the latter’s scalp tingle.

“Continue!” Ye Qilan commanded in a calm voice.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Wu wondered if he had narrowly escaped disaster.

Throughout the meeting, Ye Qilan was multitasking.

While feeding Little Pudding, he was also helping her assemble a toy car, in addition to listening to the meeting reports, yet still looked relaxed and elegant…

Su Hongxing knew that Ye Qilan had brought Little Pudding into the meeting room and was a little worried.

She pretended to come in to serve tea to Ye Qilan, but upon opening the door, she saw Little Pudding crawling all over the conference table.

Little Pudding, who was having fun, immediately returned to Ye Qilan’s lap under Su Hongxing’s fierce glare, not daring to be presumptuous anymore.

Being mid-meeting, Su Hongxing couldn’t say much. Before she left the room, she took one more look at Little Pudding.

The little one wasn’t afraid of anyone, except Su Hongxing when she was angry. At least for now, she was behaving.

In the afternoon, Su Hongxing couldn’t help but go into Ye Qilan’s office to see what was going on.

On entering, she found Little Pudding crawling all over the floor.

“Our daughter is so cute, isn’t she?” Seeing Su Hongxing, Ye Qilan couldn’t help but boast.

He knew that everyone was bound to be smitten by Little Pudding.

Although Su Hongxing looked cold and stern on the surface, he was well-aware that she genuinely loved Little Pudding.

Just as Su Hongxing was about to counter Ye Qilan, she saw that Little Pudding had crawled at her feet, clung to her leg, and was looking up at her with big round eyes, clearly begging for a hug.

Likely, Su Hongxing would have melted under Little Pudding’s charm, but this moment, she couldn’t risk getting close to her and firmly moved the child’s hand away.

The very next moment, Little Pudding clung to her again, looking at her pitifully.

Su Hongxing could not bear to look and, after shaking off Little Pudding’s hand, hurriedly rushed out of the office.

Watching this scene, Ye Qilan found it quite amusing. Su Hongxing clearly couldn’t resist the adorable Little Pudding, yet she still pushed her away. He was pretty confident that given enough time, Little Pudding’s adorable tactics would eventually break Su Hongxing’s defenses.

“Such a good girl!” Ye Qilan lifted Little Pudding, gave her a kiss, and instructed her tenderly on what to do next, “When you see your Mom in the future, just jump up and hug her calling her Mama!”
