How quickly did the kid change her mind? She was just asking to see the tigers, but she was now asking to see the pandas.

Su Ye never understood why kids were so passionate about pandas.

Weren’t they just bears with dark circles around their eyes?

Su Ye, who had no compassion, thought.

Was there even anything cute about a panda?

Su Ye slowly followed as Ye Sang hopped and dragged him toward the pandas’ zone. Even he did not notice his lips curling upward as he observed the little girl in front of him.

Many people were surrounding the area while taking pictures. Ye Sang could not see a thing even when she tried to stand on her toes. She was so agitated that she had puffed her cheeks like a blowfish.

She angrily spun in circles like she was chasing her own tail.

Su Ye chuckled after seeing her reaction.

“Mister.” The little girl was unable to figure out a plan with her intelligence of a five-year-old. She had no choice but to hug Su Ye’s leg and plead.

“Mister,” the little girl stood on her toes. She was struggling to express herself when she was nervous, “The…the pandas…”

It was like she had bitten her tongue. Her reaction was so adorable.

Su Ye withdrew the smile in his eyes. He did not overdo it. He leaned forward and picked the girl up so Ye Sang would have a better view.

“Meow!” The little girl’s beautiful eyes widened slightly. She subconsciously mimicked the cry of a cat.

The man looked down speechlessly, “Tsk…”

“That’s a panda.”

Not a cat.

Ye Sang ignored him. She stubbornly mimicked the cry of a cat.

Su Ye did not bother to correct her again.

The little girl looked at the panda curiously. She turned around and saw Su Ye sulking a little. She puffed her cheeks and gathered her courage.

“Mister…” Ye Sang called.

She pointed at the panda. It was difficult to tell where the little girl had gotten her courage from as she looked into Su Ye’s calm eyes.

She said despite the risk of being beaten to death by her own father, “You look just like the panda…”

Su Ye: “…”

He lowered his head expressionlessly and looked at the squishy little kid.

He suddenly realized something…

The little girl was no longer considerate.

She had learned to stab him in the heart.

Su Ye’s pair of beautiful eyes squinted. He reached out his cold finger and pinched the girl’s face. He said word by word, “I will forgive your impoliteness for now.”

“Say that again?” He grinned as he stared at the little girl while grinding his teeth, “What do I look the same as? Huh?”

No matter what angle or from a human’s view on evolution, he should not resemble the panda by the slightest, right?

Where did the kid see the resemblance from?

Su Ye was actually curious.

The kid was scared by his reaction. Her soft face twisted. She knew Su Ye was about to rage.

Ye Sang pointed at the dark circles around the panda’s eyes. She fearlessly said, “But the two of you are really alike…”

Su Ye: “…”

He expressionlessly pinched the girl’s chubby cheeks, “That’s enough.”

“You can shut your mouth now.”

He swore he would buy a lot of masks from the Internet tomorrow.

Ye Sang stretched her cheeks while they were being pinched. She murmured, “Let…let go of my face, daddy.”

Su Ye did not let go.

He enjoyed teasing the little girl.

Ye Sang rubbed her soft face and said unhappily, “You adults shouldn’t bully a kid like me…”

She was struggling to say the words clearly.

Su Ye took a sip from the bottle of water and chuckled, “No…”

“We adults enjoy bullying kids like you.”

She was so adorable.

He was having a lot of fun teasing her.

She was a walking happy fruit.1

However, Ye Sang did not want to be a happy fruit. She swung her legs and soon recovered her energy after a brief rest on the bench.

“Mister, let’s go see the big tigers…”

Su Ye: “Fine…”

Such a pitiful kid. She could not even speak properly after he pinched her face.

Su Ye was surprised that the kid did not forget about the tigers. He calmly placed the girl’s hat back on her head.

He switched the topic before the girl became unhappy, “Let’s go.”

“I’ll bring you to the tigers.”

It immediately caught the little girl’s attention. She happily followed the man and hugged his leg, “Daddy is the best.”

“…” Su Ye finally saw through her lies.

She would call him father if she was happy, but she would call him mister if she was not happy.

It turned out that even the way she addressed people could change depending on her mood.

The zone where the tigers were kept was more exciting than the previous zone. There was only a transparent glass panel between the visitors and the tiger. Many people had crowded in front of the glass to take pictures and observe the tiger.

The tiger on the other side was obviously at its limits. It was on the verge of pouncing at the glass.

Su Ye was afraid it might scare the little girl. He hugged the chubby kid tightly to stop her from running toward the glass.

“Come back here.”

The little kid was just about to dash forward when Su Ye quickly grabbed her collar and pulled her back like a chick.

Ye Sang pulled her hair and puffed her cheeks unhappily. She pointed at the tiger and said, “Big tiger…”

Su Ye replied patiently, “I can tell what it is.”

He tried to distract the little girl so she would stop staring at the tiger. He spread his legs and wrapped his arms around her. He pointed at the aviaries and said, “Why don’t we go see the birds?”

Ye Sang did not want to see the birds.

The little girl in Su Ye’s arms looked around and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure before she could turn down the offer.

!!!

The man seemed to have noticed something. He looked in her direction. The little girl quickly lowered her head and said as if she was doing it subconsciously to survive, “I want to see the birds.”

“Daddy!” She began to run, “Let’s go see the birds.”

The kid’s mood was as unpredictable as the weather.

Su Ye’s gaze stopped on a spot not far away for a mere second before he quickly ran after Ye Sang.

The aviaries were livelier compared to the quiet crowd at the tigers.

The chirps of the birds were pleasing to the ear. They could hear parrots mimicking a human’s speech too.

The amused kids were laughing out loud.

Su Ye caught up to the little girl and chuckled when he saw her diffident reaction, “Didn’t you say you didn’t want to see the birds?”

What exactly made the kid run away so quickly?

Su Ye still did not understand.

The little kid hid behind him while murmuring under her breath, “He can’t see me, he can’t see me.”

She was simply hypnotizing herself.

Huo Yao, who was not far away, smirked after seeing the girl’s reaction.

Was she pretending that she did not see me?
