Mu Chen’s heart trembled at her calling him “daddy” and feeling disbelief at the same time…
“What did you call me?” The man’s pupils shrank and his fingertips moved.
…It was Ye Sang’s second time calling him daddy.
The little thing pursed her lips together and unwillingly changed it, “Uncle…”
She knew that Mu Chen didn’t like her calling him daddy.
Mu Chen looked at the unhappy child and wanted to say something, but eventually he swallowed his words down.
He lived for two lifetimes and finally learnt what it meant to pick up a stone and smashed it on his feet.
He didn’t really hate the brat calling him that.
But it was impossible to make Mu Chen slap himself.
So the man had no choice but to change the topic forcefully.
He looked at the torn paper and picked up a random piece of paper. He swayed it in front of the little girl and smiled lightly, “You are different from other children.”
He paused and asked, “What did your grandpas teach you?”
Needless to guess, this child grew up with her grandpas.
It was hard to imagine what kind of people they were, considering they raised the child up like this.
The little thing swayed her legends and whispered, “My grandpas said…” She paused and cupped her soft face, “Doctors should be benevolent.”
Mu Chen smiled lightly and didn’t deny it.
Doctors should be benevolent.
It was easy to say.
He looked up and asked, “What else did your grandpas teach you?”
Ye Sang recalled what Grandpa Ji always said. She hugged the little book in her arms and recalled, “…Dare to be the first.”
Ye Sang recalled what the grandpa who studied medicine used to say the most.
Although she didn’t understand, it didn’t stop her from saying it.
The man’s lips curved up and masked the scorn in his eyes, “Your grandpa surely worries about the country and its people.”
“Yes.” The little thing’s eyes lit up and smiled like there were stars in it, “They are heroes.”
Mu Chen’s lips pulled and felt sick. He smiled through a snort, “True.”
It was imaginable how ambitious they were when they were young to say that “doctors should be benevolent” and “dare to be the first”.
They were complete opposites of him.
It wasn’t strange for them to raise a child like this.
He pushed a little ball in his arms and pointed at the bed in his study, “Go sleep there.”
Meaning that she needs to stop getting in his way.
She pouted and took out a sweet from her little bag.
Mu Chen hesitated and took it.
The little thing saw that he took it and waved her hands carefreely, “Good night, uncle.”
Then she hugged her little book and jogged over.
Mu Chen watched her leave and smiled after a while.
He put the sweet on the table and slowly ripped the paper even more.
The man opened his computer and moved his mouse; it was what Ye Sang just ripped.
The water in Mu Chen’s eyes shone brightly.
That brat probably didn’t know there was something called a backup file.
If he wanted to submit the project, all he needed to do was print another copy.
But now…
Mu Chen looked at the sweet on his table and pursed his lips together.
He lightly clicked and deleted his backup files completely.

Ye Sang hugged the book in her arms insecurely and fell half asleep.
She knew that her cheap daddy had something in his mind.
But Ye Sang didn’t know how to comfort him.
Her mommy told her that if she never participated in someone’s experience, then she should not scold them in any way.
Perhaps when you feel that someone’s being unreasonable, it was only unreasonable from your perspective.
“It’s so hard being a baby…” The little thing muttered and felt sad.
Mu Chen walked into the room and heard her sad comments.
He raised an eyebrow, not knowing what this brat was going through again.
The man sat by the bed and saw the “little book” in her arms.
Mu Chen ‘tsked’ and thought that she always took random things with her.
“What’s this……” He mumbled and tried to take it from her.
But she held onto it so tightly that he couldn’t even pull it out.
Mu Chen: “…”
This can’t happen.
The man grinded his teeth and stretched out a hand again.
But the little thing was so stubborn that she rolled over and slept on top of it.
Mu Chen clenched his teeth, “….Why are you hugging a book in your sleep?”
The little thing pouted and slept like a pig, there was no way she was going to reply to him.
Mu Chen finally pulled the book over and sighed in relief. He looked at the soundly asleep little thing and lazily flipped through the book.
What kind of book was it to make her treasure it so much?
<The Things Which Can’t Be Told With XXX Over The Years>
Mu Chen frowned.
What kind of title is this?
The man turned the first page.
Hmm… it had pictures too.
At first, Mu Chen’s expressions were formal. But the more he read, the darker his face eventually became.
Damn it.
What kind of book does this brat read???
“Wake up.” He shook the little thing and tried to wake her up. What kind of embarrassing and humiliating book is this?
How could a child read this?
“Did Shen Chuchen give you this? Or was it Huo Yao?” He mumbled and started to guess, “I didn’t think they would give you this kind of book considering they look decently human.”
Mu Chen breathed deeply and glanced at the little thing, eventually deciding to keep it.
The man took the “little yellow book” and planned to ask about it tomorrow.
He hesitated before pressing the little thing into his arms. He was surrounded by the smell of sweet milk. Mu Chen couldn’t help but pinch her chubby cheeks and lightly said, “Good night.”
Since her two fathers came, it’s been a few days since he hugged her.
The little bun was so soft in his arms and made him feel much happier.

Ye Sang was half-conscious when someone pulled her up and a tender voice sounded next to her non stop.
“Wake up you little idiot, wake up. It’s nine already.”
The little thing covered her ears and wanted to keep on sleeping.
Shen Yao breathed deeply and yelled, “If you get up, Huo Yao and Shen Chuchen will come up and hit your butt!!”
Ye Sang immediately woke up.
