Chapter 170: Three Fathers Meet Face to Face (Part 1)
Mu Chen: “... Tsk.”
The man’s lips twitched slightly.
What the hell is up with a chicken nest?
She must be drunk.
He pulled the little bun who couldn’t even speak properly and narrowed his eyes before mumbling to himself, “As lightweight as one glass?”
No.
She didn’t even have a glass yet.
How lightweight was she?
The little thing swayed her dizzy head and rested her face on the table, energyless. She pouted slightly with a light brush on her face.
—— Looking rather cute.
Mu Chen sneered and didn’t mind her. Seeing that she was quietly resting there, he poured a glass for himself and started to drink it leisurely.
“Uncle....” The little thing suddenly lifted her head up, making Mu Chen’s hand tremble and spill the wine.
His eyes twitched and glanced at the little girl.
His instincts told him that it won’t be a peaceful night because this kid was drunk.
Mu Chen pressed on his temples and deeply regretted it.
Why did he bother to tease her?
“I want cake.” Her misty cat eyes stared at the not-so-pretty-looking cake.
Mu Chen: “...” She was drunk yet she didn’t forget about her cake.
The man breathed out and calmly said okay, then picked up a fruit knife from the kitchen expressionlessly.
He looked really scary.
...
The little thing would’ve been flexible and stayed silent in horror if she was being her usual self.
But it was different today.
The little thing swayed her head and watched him cut the cake. She rested her soft cheeks in her hands and said, “Uncle...”
“Do you want to murder me?”
Mu Chen: “...”
His hand holding the knife trembled.
His face fell cold and repeatedly told himself.
Don’t bother with a drunk brat.
Don’t. Don’t.
After comforting himself a few times, Mu Chen finally calmed down.
The man’s fingers were long and slim, his beautiful eyes made him look good when he cut the cake.
He cut two pieces. He passed one to Ye Sang expressionlessly and tolerated the urge to strangle her, then shoved some cake into his mouth.
Mu Chen tsked at how sweet it was.
The little thing rested her chin on her hands and fangirled for a few seconds, then immediately pouted.
The Ye Sang right now wasn’t the old Ye Sang she was before.
Heaven knew what kind of drama she watched this morning and she spoke like a typical villain.
“After midnight, the entire capital is my world.” The little thing tilted her chin up and was full of drunkenness, “Everyone who opposes me will die.”
Mu Chen: “... Haha.” He heard Huo Chen say this more than three times in his previous life.
He was certainly a good influence, even a five-year-old lost her mind.
He breathed deeply and scorned, “Of course it is your world after midnight. Others need to sleep even if you aren’t sleeping.”
Ye Sang: “...”
Ye·Proud·Sang pouted happily at Mu Chen’s argument.
“Humph.”
She pouted and started to shove cake into her mouth angrily.
Mu Chen saw it and didn’t stop her as he also ate a mouth of cake.
The man tsked slightly at how sweet it was, but his lips curved upwards happily.
But tonight was destined to be an unpeaceful night.
...
At approximately twelve o’clock midnight, Mu Chen’s phone rang.
He saw that it was from Huo Yao and his heart sank a little. He pressed down the urge to hang up the call and pressed his lips tightly, “What’s up?”
Huo Yao: “Open the door.”
“I’m picking my daughter up.”
Mu Chen: “...” F***.
When did this dog come back?
Mu Chen fell silent for a long time. Huo Yao narrowed his eyes and quickly returned to an expressionless face and darkly assumed, “Don’t tell me you don’t want to give her back?”
“...” Mu Chen’s face turned dark and argued back out of reflex, “Who likes that brat?”
He pursed his lips together and looked at the little thing who was busy eating cake, then pressed down the unhappiness in his heart, “I”ll ask the housekeeper to open the door.”
*
Huo Yao and Shen Chuchen exchanged a glance with each other and a bad feeling rose up from the call.
After all, the nature of humans was approval after criticizing something.
They knew each other too well.
With Mu Chen’s personality, he clearly meant the opposite of what he said.
Shen Chuchen tsked and sat up lazily while narrowing his eyes. “We must take the child today.”
After these few days, she probably threw him and Huo Yao to the back of her mind.
Although Huo Yao didn’t say anything, he obviously thought so too.
...
When the crowd rushed over, Housekeeper Mu yawned slightly and took them to the living room with a forced smile.
The two of them stood out too much.
Especially Ye Sang.
The strand of hair stood up on her head with cat ear hair clips, even her small tail swayed behind her.
It was too hard to not notice her.
It was undeniable that Huo Yao missed her after not seeing her for half a month.
But...
The current situation couldn’t stir up his emotions.
The little thing had her head lowered and didn’t know people were there.
She was too angry and mumbled to herself as she almost buried her face in the cake.
Her IQ wasn’t high to begin with and she looked even more silly after getting drunk.
Ye Sang buried her face in the cake and didn’t realize that something was wrong. When her furry head moved and looked up, she finally found out a bunch of people stood in the living room.
They were all staring at her.
The little thing pouted and didn’t know what shyness was: “...”
What?
Huo Yao saw the cream on her face and his lips twitched.
Great.
He didn’t even have to be sad now.
It was his last bit of stubbornness as a father to stop himself from laughing.
“...” Shen Chuchen touched his forehead.
She’s helpless.
She was too good at destroying the atmosphere.
“...”
As a villain, they were all great at changing their expressions.
The two new fathers all forced their laugh back in order to protect their daughter’s pride.
But Mu Chen was more impudent. He didn’t only laugh loudly, but he even scorned her mercilessly, “Does your dad know you are this stupid?”
Huo Yao, Shen Chuchen: “...” They felt offended.
Shen Chuchen smiled coldly and pulled a chair over, crossing his legs as he sat down, “Remember what you said today.”
His lips curved upwards and sounded exceptionally meaningful.
“The water that got in your head today will be your tears in the future.”
