nFurthermore…

nThe scene he couldn’t tolerate even more came.

nIn the video, the boy laughed coldly.

n“Not only do you not have a mom, my dad said that your dad isn’t a good thing either.”

n“He’s not only unsympathetic, he likes to kill to the last one too.”

n“…”

nMr. Zhao’s face turned white.

n“What nonsense are you saying!” He pinched Zhao Yuan furiously.

nThe Zhao family’s eldest son had already offended Huo Yao and Huo Yao decided to give them a chance but listen to this stinky brat: what did he say? !

nHuo Yao was calm, obviously it wasn’t his first time to hear others speak of his “evil deeds”.

nHe had done many immoral things and he didn’t feel guilty at all.

nBut the most difficult thing for him to accept is that some random kid talked badly of him in front of his daughter.

nHuo Yao looked towards the little girl’s direction unconsciously and moved his lips, an unnoticeable panic flashing in his eyes.

nHe didn’t care what others thought of him.

nBut he would be lying if he said he didn’t care about what his daughter thought of him.

nHuo Yao forced himself to look away and back on the video, his jaw was tight and he showed no expression.

nThe little thing saw her daddy’s gloomy expression and bit her lips, hiding back into Shen Chuchen’s arms.

nShen Chuchen bent down and hugged her, smiling lightly, “Why are you scared?”

nYou’re not the one who’s wrong.

nThe little thing rested her chin on his shoulders and repeated in a whisper, “My daddy isn’t a bad person…”

nHer words overlapped with her unjust accusation in the video.

n“Daddy isn’t a bad person….”

nHuo Yao’s pupils shrank and looked at the video in awe.

nThe little girl’s words made him freeze in his spot.

n“He just… during the time he needed love the most…”

n“…. No one wanted to treat him gently.”

nThe little thing sobbed in the video as she stood there helplessly, trying to explain for him.

nNo one knew what she felt like, and no one knew how a child felt like when there was nothing she could do to defend the person she loved.

n“…”

nAfter they finished watching the video, the office sank into a deadly silence.

nHuo Yao froze there and stared at the monitor in shock. He moved his lips but he couldn’t say anything.

nMs. Xu’s eyes widened slightly as she glanced at Ye Sang in surprise.

nShe never thought that a normal children’s fight involved so much.

nAnd she never expected an obedient little girl to say something like this.

n“This child…” Ms. Liu was lost for words. She really had a way to make people’s hearts melt.

nShen Chuchen was also lost in a trance. His smile disappeared as he looked down at the child in his arms.

nHe mumbled to himself, “You are too good for Huo Yao…”

nHumans always yearned for the sun.

nWho doesn’t want a person to drag them out of darkness?

nShen Chuchen slowly put her down and leaned against the door, forcefully pulled a smile.

nHe knew that the little thing didn’t need him anymore.

n“Daddy…” The little thing looked down with teary eyes and explained,

n“Sangsang isn’t a bad child.”

nThe little girl’s mutter made Huo Yao feel bitter and complicated.

nHe thought of “no one wanted to treat him gently”, and he felt nothing but gentleness and guilt.

n“I’m sorry.” The man looked ashamed of himself and eventually muttered in a low voice.

nHuo Yao was an extremely proud person. He didn’t even have a good conscience, let alone have him feel guilty over something.

nApologizing to a child was something that could only be seen once in a lifetime.

nYe Sang wanted to cry even more after Huo Yao spoke. She continued to explain through sobs, “Wu, Sangsang isn’t a bad child.”

nShe repeated this over and over again, making Shen Chuchen feel tight in his chest for no reason.

nHe closed his eyes, knowing that he shouldn’t intervene between the father and daughter.

nHe smiled coldly and dragged the fatty over unhappily, “You bullied that little thing just now?”

nZhao Yuan’s smile froze on his face. Before he could cry, Shen Chuchen had already kicked his butt sloppily.

n“You…” The fatty immediately yelped in pain and inhaled coldly. He sat on the ground and asked in disbelief, “H-How dare you kick me?”

nShen Chuchen smiled, “I need an excuse to beat you?”

nZhao Yuan: “…”

n“You… wu… you aren’t human…” He widened his eyes in horror and crawled to his parents as if he had seen a ghost.

nMrs. Zhao also jumped at the scene.

nShe knew that the Zhao family would be done for if Huo Yao wanted to settle this.

nShe quickly pulled his husband over and wanted to leave this place.

nShen Chuchen raised an eyebrow and laughed, “Wanna leave?”

nHe leaned against the door and blocked their exis with a loud ‘bang’.

n“No rush…” He dragged his voice on, “Let’s settle this first.”

nThen, Shen Chuchen turned and looked at Huo Yao.

n…

nThe man saw the little thing’s red eyes and his heart clenched. Suddenly, he felt like he was a failure in being a father.

nHuo Yao recalled when the little girl had just arrived at the Huo family, she had her own values and knew human emotions well despite being smart and quirky.

nIt was just that he had never cared about what a child thinks.

nIn his eyes, children were children: they were forgetful and naive.

nBecause of that, Huo Yao never thought of putting her emotions into his consideration.

nThinking back on it now, he realised how ridiculous his thought was.

n“… I’ve never taken care of a child before.”

nHuo Yao pulled his lips bitterly and spoke in a hoarse voice,

n“And I don’t know how to spoil a little thing.”

n“…” The little thing pouted and looked down.

n“Will Ye Sangsang……” The man bent down after a pause and his eyes were filled with warmth and gentleness that he never felt before, “Teach me how to be a good dad?”

nHe didn’t know.

nBut he’s willing to learn it with the little ball in front of his eyes.

nHis daughter deserved all the best in the world.

nYe Sang bit her lips hesitantly and looked away proudly.

nUnder the man’s earnest gaze, she finally ran into his arms awkwardly and generously forgave him,

n“F-Fine then.”

nJust like what Shen Chuchen said, her villain daddy really didn’t know how to love someone.

nNo one was willing to treat him gently during the times he needed love the most.

nSo, she will teach him.

n…

nThe little girl’s clear eyes were the most beautiful thing in the world.

nHuo Yao hugged the soft little ball and his lips curved up unnoticeably, his heart was as soft as it could be.

nShen Chuchen watched the comforting scene in front of him and bitterness filled his eyes.

nHe looked down and hid the dullness in his eyes, then he sneered lightly and left carelessly.
