The man lowered his gaze and paused for a few seconds. He indifferently took the pack of instant noodles from the little girl and went to the kitchen.
The little girl sat on the spot and swung her legs as she waited. She wrapped her hands around her stomach and suddenly recalled that she still had a few buns in her backpack.
Ye Sang took out her lunchbox and looked at the buns inside it. She hesitated for a moment.
She swallowed her saliva when she remembered her father was cooking the pack of instant noodles for her. She put the lunchbox back in the end.
Su Ye saw the drooling little girl sitting on the chair obediently after he was done cooking the noodles.
He raised his brows and said indifferently, “Go ahead and eat it. No one is stopping you.”
The little girl shook her head with wide eyes, “Mister, I’m hungry.”
Su Ye pushed the bowl of noodles toward the little girl and leaned on the back of his chair. He placed the back of his hand on his brows. He seemed rather gloomy.
The organizer from Grandworld Corporation made it extremely clear when he went to see his father last night.
“Young master, I believe you are well aware of the possible bad outcomes whether your team participates in the match or not.”
The man smiled and said politely, “After all, we will retire your teammates if you win.”
He added after a slight pause, “If you lose…you will retire from the competitive scene.”
Su Ye knew better than anyone else what he meant by retiring his teammates.
His teammates were not afraid of being doubted by the public. They would not mind the pressure too.
However, it would be devastating if the company decided to retire them.
Su Ye already made up his mind in a few seconds.
The man curled his lips and said, “Fine.
I’ll concede.”
He just needed to fake it and lose the match, right?
He must admit that he was left with no retreat.
After all, if he was involved in a match-fixing, he would have no chance of returning to the competitive scene.
Su Ye moved his wrist and tapped on his watch while he was deep in thoughts. He crossed his leg on top of the other.
He looked down at the little girl whose eyes were tearing up because of the spicy noodles. He shifted his gaze away expressionlessly.
Kids are seriously annoying.
Ye Sang stuck her tongue out to relieve herself from the spiciness. She cried and mumbled, “Mister…”
Su Ye opened his eyes and looked at the girl coldly.
“What is it?”
The little girl looked at him sincerely and mumbled softly, “It’s the best noodles I’ve eaten.”
She seemed to be very touched.
How tough was the kid’s life?
He leaned against the chair lazily and watched the little girl eat the noodles briefly before turning on his laptop.
On the screen was the replay of the professional KPL match in which he made a name for himself.
Trust is meant to be crushed in the end.
“Mister,” The little kid’s childish voice came from behind. He tapped his finger and looked at her with the same expressionless face.
The kid tilted her head to the side before saying with an adorable voice, “Do…do you eat candy?”
She took out a fruit candy from her bag and looked at Su Ye with great anticipation while swinging her legs.
Su Ye failed to retain his expression. He squinted and reached out his finger to receive the candy.
He looked down and asked curiously, “Don’t you want it?”
Don’t kids love candies?
The kid was overwhelmed by sadness as soon as he mentioned it.
Ye Sang covered her mouth and shook her head, “I…I lost my tooth.”
“My father says…I will lose all my teeth if I keep eating candies.”
She stopped talking.
Su Ye was amused by her cute behavior. He said in a mocking tone while squinting his eyes, “Oh…”
He mimicked her tone and said, “You…you lost your tooth?”
Ye Sang’s eyes widened. She said sobbingly, “You…you are mocking me…”
Su Ye chuckled, “I wasn’t…”
Ye Sang, “…”
She shut her mouth.
Literally…
Su Ye felt a lot better after the little interlude. He lifted his hand and hesitated for a moment before rubbing the little girl’s head and pushed her out of the room.
“Time to go little kid.”
“I’ll ask Ye Li to bring you back to your father tomorrow,” he closed his eyes and asked the little girl to leave.
The match was on the day after tomorrow.
It was being held in the capital.
Su Ye could easily imagine how much attention it would get.
It was unsafe to bring the kid around.
Ye Sang tilted her head to one side. She sat on the ground and hugged Su Ye’s leg. She mumbled, “But there’s a big gray wolf out there…”
The little kid puffed her cheeks, “My daddy says the big gray wolf likes to eat disobedient kids like me.”
Su Ye closed his eyes. He tried to reason with the kid, “You have already grown up. Why would you be afraid of a big gray wolf?”
The man said calmly, “You should just beat the big gray wolf to death if you see it.”
Ye Sang, “…”
She paused briefly before asking, “What…what if I can’t beat it?”
He was starting to lose his patience, “The big gray wolf is going to eat you up then if you can’t beat it.”
The little kid lowered her head and pouted her lips. She said softly, “How…how could you be so bad to me?”
Su Ye said indifferently, “I can be even worse, do you believe me?”
He could not help but wonder…
How is the kid so talkative?
Ye Sang looked at Su Ye. She was hesitant to let go of her arms that were hugging the man’s leg.
Daddy Shen warned her that the big gray wolf liked eating little kids who had lost their tooth.
Su Ye took a deep breath. He carried the little girl up and tossed her onto the bed.
“Go to the…corner…”
He did not even finish his sentence when the little kid already went to the corner. She reached her head out and stared back at him obediently.
What now?
How many times did she have to be tossed onto the bed to develop such a habit?
The little kid shook her head. Her eyes were wide and clear, “Mister, time to sleep.”
Su Ye flipped the blanket up and covered the little kid’s head.
He slept on the other side and only used half the blanket as he was afraid of squishing her.
The kid poked her head out of the blanket and said, “Goodnight, mister.”
Su Ye turned his head and blinked. He could not help but reach his hand out to pinch her chubby face. He grinned after feeling the soft touch.
He calmly withdrew his hand and said lazily, “Goodnight.”
Tsk…
The kid isn’t as annoying as he thought…
