It took a long time before the two of them finished counting.

The servants had already brought the food over. The exquisite round glass dining table was decorated with western style steak and pasta, silver knives and forks, and white disks. They shone brightly in the glazed light in the middle of the dining room.

As a teenager, he studied in the United States and preferred western cuisine.

The chair was high, and the man took the child by the armpits and placed her on the seat beside him.

Ye Jinxin supported herself with her hands on the stool, leisurely swinging her small legs.

The nanny walked up to him and spread out the neatly folded white napkin around the child's collar. She then placed the plastic tableware in front of the child.

He unbuttoned the cuff of his shirt, rolled up his sleeve, and spoke in a low voice.

"Eat."

The servants sensibly withdrew from the dining hall and waited at the entrance.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was the clatter of spoons and bowls.

Huo Ting leisurely split the steak into pieces. He nibbled at the excellent cold steak, the strict dining table etiquette since he was a kid, making the man look elegant and noble.

"Uncle." The child stared at him.

The man frowned, neither eating nor speaking.

"Uncle." The child persevered.

Huo Tindong still didn't speak.

"Uncle …"

Huo Tindong suddenly raised his head.

"Uncle, uncle, are you done yet?" The man raised his eyebrows and let out a long sigh as he asked, "What's wrong again?"

Ye Jinxin picked up the pink plastic knife and fork and pointed at Huo Tindong's plate, "I want to eat yours."

The expression on Huo Tinton's face froze. He put the fork back on the plate with a clink, then looked at the little girl with furrowed brows and said, "Are you sure you don't have it on your own plate?" His tone was solemn and cold.

President Huo thought to himself gloomily. No matter what, this child needs to be taught well. Even if he isn't his own child, he is still by his side.

"No." Ye Jinxin pointed at the steak on her plate and said, "I'm too weak to cut it." Then he looked longingly at Huo Tindong's plate and blinked. "Uncle's meat has been cut open. I can eat it."

President Huo's face instantly turned black. Eat mine? Why? I served you to wear, served you to sleep, and now I still serve you to eat?

I'm the general manager of the Huo family. Even if your dad gave me 27% of the shares, that's because I have a good strategy! What does it have to do with you!

Huo Tindong cursed for a while in his heart, but he still fiercely cut a few small pieces of his plate into small pieces and delivered them to Ye Jinxin's cute crescent-shaped plate.

"Just eat it. One more word and I'll throw you out."

Ye Jinxin immediately obediently lowered her head and scooped meat into her mouth. She didn't dare to say another word.

Looking at the kid wolfing down his food, Huo Tindong rubbed the space between his eyebrows.

He had no choice but to back down.

There was no helping it, if he really starved her to death, the stocks in his pocket might just be donated by someone.

Huo Tindong had been floating in the Merchant Sea for so long, but he had never had the chance to see the meat that was just about to be snatched away from his mouth.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Ye Jinxin went to the bathroom to take a bath, pulling on her small pink slippers and coming out again.

"Hello, uncle." When the little girl saw Huo Tindong, she respectfully greeted him.

Huo Tindong was sitting at his desk, reading a book. He didn't even look up when he heard the greeting. Just an inaudible "En".

The little girl had just finished showering, and her face was flushed. Combined with her cute appearance, her fair and tender face was very pleasing to the eye.

But Huo Tindong felt that the child in front of him was extremely annoying.

Did he really think that he didn't know? Wasn't he still afraid that he would kick her out to sleep alone? He didn't even see her being so polite in the day. Hmph! This child is small, but he's still very smart.

He did not forget that she was the daughter of the old fox Ye Zhenyun.

"Uncle?" The child called to him again.

"What's wrong?"

"I want to read too."

"If you want to read it, just take it from the bookcase." After saying that, he buried his head back into the thick documents.

The books in President Huo's bookcase were either biographies of business celebrities or professional management literature.

Ye Jin twitched his mouth and said, "Uncle, I don't understand any of that." After saying that, he blinked his eyes and emphasized, "Is there any painting?"

Huo Tindong froze for a moment, then raised his head to look at the little girl in front of him.

She was six years old, but could not read.

To be honest, at her age, ordinary kids were already in grade one.

The man slammed the papers down on the table and looked directly into the child's clear eyes.

"Do you want to go to school?"

"School?" Ye Jinxin tilted his head and asked, "Can I also go to school?"

"Of course." "Why can't you go to school?"

"Mother Song said the orphanage didn't have enough money, so we had to send our older sister to school first. I can't do it yet, I'm still young. "

He uneasily loosened his collar.

"You have money now."

Not only is he rich, all 27% of your dad's shares should be yours.

The child wrinkled his nose and asked, "How much money do I have?"

"A lot."

Ye Jinxin's eyes lit up and suddenly ran over quickly with her slippers. She leaned over to Huo Tindong's desk and stretched out her small hand. She looked at him eagerly and said, "Then uncle, why don't you give me all the money?"

The man's mouth twitched, "What are you doing here?"

"Don't worry about me. Didn't you say that Jinxin is rich? Then you should have given it to me. " After saying that, she stretched her two small hands up, looking as if she was about to reach the tip of President Huo's nose.

Holden smacked her hand off.

He said calmly, "Just eat my food and drink my food. You still shamelessly ask for money, yet you still ask me for money. Your face is still pale."

"No!" "You said I had money, that's why I asked you for it. And now you say I don't have money, you're being unreasonable."

Using the fact that he was an adult, President Huo leaned back against the back of the chair with his hands folded in front of his chest. He opened his mouth without any shame. "I'm just unreasonable. Do you have any objections?"

The child gritted his teeth and angrily turned around. Without saying anything, he collapsed onto the bed, his face sulking towards the pillow.

"Don't sleep like that. Turn around," President Huo added coolly. "You'll be bored to death in a moment, and I'll have to find someone to carry you out."

As if angry, the child hit the pillow with his hand, still sleeping like before.

Huo Tindong no longer paid any attention to her. He lowered his head and looked at the document before suddenly saying, "Get up early tomorrow and ask Auntie Liu to send you to school."
