nYe Sang covered her starving stomach and sneezed from the cold.

n

nShe looked at him pathetically, “Daddy…”

n

nHuo Yao frowned and observed the cold and gloomy environment here. He bent down and picked up the little girl and strode outside the basement with his long legs.

n

nHe coldly wrapped the soft little girl with his coat and asked, monotone, “Why didn’t you sleep?”

n

nYe Sang pouted and refused to answer.

n

nThe little girl’s heart was as clear as a mirror.

n

nIf she said it was because she was hungry, her cheap daddy would definitely laugh at her…

n

nHuo Yao saw that she didn’t reply and coldly pursed his lips, threatening her again evilly, “Don’t want to tell me? Does Sangsang want to be beaten up like that man?”

n

nThe little girl suddenly recalled the miserable state Duan Tingfan was in and quivered. She felt wronged and shook her head, sobs overflowed when she tried to speak in a small voice, “I-I’m hungry…”

n

nWahhh.

n

nShe was starving…

n

nHuo Yao made eye contact with her misty cat eyes and a strange softness rose in his heart. Without knowing why, his eyes turned cold and a dangerous light appeared in the bottom of his eyes, “They didn’t give you food?”

n

nYe Sang shook her head furiously and hugged her cheap Daddy’s arm tightly. Seeing that he was going to get someone into trouble, she couldn’t care less about her face and explained in a tiny voice, “N-no.”

n

nThe little girl lowered her head and continued in embarrassment, “Sangsang wasn’t full…”

n

nHuo Yao was speechless.

n

nSpecial Assistant Zhao at the side laughed quietly to himself.

n

n“So you came down and stole food?” The man looked at the half-opened fridge and pulled a fake smile on his face.

n

nYe Sang stared at him softly and repeated her words stubbornly, “I’m hungry.”

n

nFine.

n

nHungry.

n

nHuo Yao coldly glanced at Special Assistant Zhao, who was swaying back and forth from laughing, he rubbed the little thing’s head and gave the most straight-guy comment, “It’s too late, you will be fat if you eat now.”

n

nHe brutally looked at the little thing’s arms which resembled lotus root and added mercilessly,

n

n“After all, you are already this fat.”

n

nYe Sang’s little face was blank.

n

nShe stared at Huo Yao blankly and all there was left in her mind was that he said she was “fat”.

n

nFat…..

n

n“Wah–” Tears immediately roared down; she had never felt so wronged.

n

nShe’s not fat!!

n

nSpecial Assistant Zhao heard this word and his smile froze. He slightly widened his eyes and looked at his boss in shock.

n

nIt seemed like…

n

nHe finally found out why his boss was single for more than twenty years of his life.

n

nShe’s only a five-year-old child!!!

n

nBoss!! Stop with your straight comments!

n

nHuo Yao was dumbfounded by her sudden wailing.

n

nAfter a while, she finally cried enough and started hiccuping quietly, silently burying her head in her Daddy’s arms and felt sleepy.

n

nEven an adult would be tired after a day like this, let alone a five-year-old child.

n

nThe man’s cold and hard heart suddenly softened a little as the little thing curled up in his arms like a kitten.

n

nHe carried her to bed and silently pulled the blanket over her before letting out a deep breath. He felt that it was more tiring to spend the afternoon with this daughter than spending time with a bunch of old cunning foxes in the workplace.

n

nAs expected, this daughter is so troublesome. The man humphed coldly as he thought.

n

nJust as he was about to leave, the little thing suddenly opened her eyes in her sleep and pulled his arm. She suddenly got up and kissed him softly, “Goodnight, Daddy.”

n

nHuo Yao remained silent.
