n“S-sis… Brodda, wah! Daddy save me awoo——”

n

nThe little girl’s screaming was miserable and the little turnip heads who were chasing after each other at the front stopped at the sound.

n

nThree question marks appeared on top of their heads in unison.

n

nWhat’s that?

n

n“Wah sister, sister——” The little thing jumped up from the ground and looked at the dog who was chasing after her, her eyes teared up, and the way she wailed made others laugh.

n

nShen Yao, who was suddenly called. “….”

n

nWhat did you just call me?

n

nThe little girl rolled her eyes elegantly. She looked at Ye Sang’s grievant face then at the dog behind her, she muttered in disdain, “Idiot.”

n

nHow is she even scared of a dog?

n

nAnd yet she treated Ye Sang as her rival before.

n

nNow that she thought about it, she probably has to thank her mysterious grandpas for her surviving up until now.

n

nShen Yao took two big steps forward and reached Ye Sang, she easily grabbed the little thing’s soft hands and pulled Ye Sang behind her.

n

nThe teddy barked twice and its black eyes were shining.

n

n——Woah, pretty little sister.”

n

nShen Yao smiled coldly and her young voice was crisp, “What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen a young lady before?”

n

n“It’s only a teddy dog.”

n

n“Look how uneducated you are.”

n

nShe looked at the teddy in disdain and smiled coldly, flipping her ponytail as she walked back leisurely while holding the little girl’s hands.

n

nYe Sang saw that she was saved and immediately covered the strand of hair on her head. She felt wronged and followed behind Shen Yao, mumbling nonstop, “Don’t bite me, don’t bite me…”

n

nShe looked like she was terrified.

n

nShen Chuchen: “…”

n

nHe laughed out loud.

n

nYe Sang became even more upset.

n

nShe clenched Shen Yao’s clothes like a little tail, and she put more effort into running than everyone else because she didn’t want to be bitten.

n

nShen Chuchen followed behind them leisurely. No one knew where he got it from but he casually bit a Setaria grass in his mouth to pretend to be cool.

n

nHe looked so casual and he was nastily watching the drama from the side.

n

n“Sangsang, run faster.”

n

nHe smiled, “The dog’s going to bite you.”

n

nYe Sang: “!!!”

n

n*

n

nHalf an hour later, Ye Sang and the other children all lay on the ground, exhausted.

n

n“….” Shen Yao didn’t even bother to maintain her image and lied on the grass. She breathed deeply and her forehead was full of sweat.

n

nShe knew that nothing good would happen with Shen Chuchen here.

n

nYe Sang wanted to lie down but before she could stay down for a few seconds, the dog threw itself at her in excitement again.

n

nThe little thing: “!!!”

n

nDuan Jinyan saw how scared she saw and laughed lightly. He bent down and grabbed the teddy, throwing it to the side in disdain.

n

n“Woof.” The teddy saw that it lost the hair it almost reached and barked unhappily.

n

nThe young boy narrowed his eyes coldly and glanced at it lightly.

n

nHis cold glance made the teddy tremble.

n

nIt immediately turned around and looked away from Ye Sang’s hair.

n

nSorry.

n

nCan’t afford to offend him.

n

nThey were all people with backgrounds.

n

nYe Sang blinked and slowly forced her tears back, looking at Duan Jinyan with her dark eyes as if he was her second parent.

n

n….

n

nShen Chuchen saw this scene from the side and pulled his lips. He felt like he was tying a red string for this stinky brat for no reason.

n

n“Sangsang,” The man lazily spat the grass out and bent down sloppily, asking with a smile, “Are you tired?”

n

nThe others ran so many laps and they had already collapsed from how tiring it was.

n

nHowever, the most underestimated Ye Sang looked like she had more stamina than everyone else.

n

nThe little thing still remembered that Shen Chuchen let the dog out to bite her, she immediately dove into Duan Jianyan’s arms without hesitation and asked for a hug, “Brodda…”

n

n“Hug…” She dragged her voice on sweetly.

n

nDuan Jinyan’s body froze at the sudden hug.

n

nThe young boy smiled after a while and turned her little face around, correcting her earnestly, “It’s ‘brother’.”

n

n“Bro…”

n

n“It’s ‘brother’.” Duan Jianyan pinched her white and soft cheeks, unexpectedly finding that it was rather nice to touch.

n

nNo wonder they all like to do it.

n

nThe little thing was unhappy.

n

nShe yawned and the hair drooped down. She pouted without much energy and whispered, “Happy Lantern Festival.”

n

nThe little thing was half asleep yet she didn’t forget to talk.

n

nDuan Jinyan’s eyes softened and replied “mhm” with a smile, but Shen Chuchen took her away before he could hug her for another few seconds.

n

nYe Sang smacked her lips and rubbed the man with her head, mumbling, “Daddy….”

n

nShe continued, “Sangsang is sleepy.”

n

nShen Chuchen hid the emotions in his eyes. The little girl was curled up in her arms like a ball of milky cuteness.

n

nHis lips curved up. Shen Chuchen knew that the children were exhausted and stopped being evil. He turned to the bunch of sleepy turnip heads and lightly said, “Let’s go.”

n

n“I’ll take you back.”

n

n“Awesome!!” Seeing that they were finally going to be liberated, Ye Niannian and Su Ruirui exchanged a glance with each other and quickly followed.

n

n*

n

nIt was about eleven at night.

n

nAfter he finished settling all the children down, Shen Chuchen sighed deeply and felt like he brought home a bunch of troubles.

n

n“Sir,” inside the bedroom, the housekeeper bent down slightly and reported in a low voice, “Those shadow guards who kidnapped Miss Sangsang went to get their punishments themselves.”

n

n“If there’s anything you…” He was halfway through his sentence but saw Shen Chuchen covering his lips with a finger, lazily gesturing him to hush.

n

nHis cold dagger seemed to say

n

nBe quiet. Can’t you see I’m taking care of a child?

n

nThe housekeeper’s lips twitched.

n

nHis wise and brilliant head of the house is now addicted to being a father?

n

nIf it was this time before, a dark and windy night was the best for murdering people and it would be strange if Shen Chuchen wasn’t outside doing something up to no good.

n

nAfter the little thing completely fell asleep, Shen Chuchen put her on the bed. The little girl automatically rolled to the corner with the blanket over her, sleeping soundly.

n

nShen Chuchen stared at Ye Sang and suddenly smiled lightly.

n

nHe spent the entire day with this little bun but he didn’t feel impatient at all.

n

nHe even thought that the future days to come won’t be as bad as he anticipated.

n

n“Anything else?” The man lowered his voice and asked.

n

nHe meant: if there’s nothing urgent then you can get out.

n

nHousekeeper Shen twitched his lips and took the initiative to leave the room.

n

nAnd he didn’t forget to close the door.

n

nThe little thing seemed to sense something and smacked her lips lazily, rolling towards him and called: “Daddy…”

n

nShen Chuchen was worried about hurting her and back off a little, giving her more room.

n

nHe hugged the soft little thing in his arms and felt sleepy despite he suffered from insomnia.

n

nThe man rested his chin on her shoulder and softly said, “Good night”.

n

nThe big one and the small one both fell asleep soundly.

n

n…

n

nThe stars turned in the sky and the dim lights of the night were gentle.

n

nThe moon tonight was exceptionally round.
