Luo Chenxi was carrying Tang Tang back into the villa when the butler greeted them.
“Little Miss, you’re back just in time. It’s a call from the Young Master.”
The little dumpling’s eyes sparkled and she cheered, “It’s daddy’s call! I want to take it, I want to take it!”
She jumped down from Luo Chenxi’s embrace, ran to the phone as she made tapping noise on the floor and picked it up.
“Daddy!”
Hearing his little princess’ childish and cheerful voice, Mu Yichen’s eyes showed a trace of warmth, and his mood became less gloomy.
“Tang Tang, have you been a good girl while daddy is away?”
The little dumpling pouted. “Of course Tang Tang has been a good girl! Tang Tang has been a good girl everyday! She has been a good girl during meals, while she goes to bed, and when she goes to kindergarten! Tang Tang has been playing games with big sister too, and she tells me stories while we’re at it!”
When Mu Yichen heard Tang Tang mention Luo Chenxi, he subconsciously adjusted his sitting posture and brought the phone closer to his ears.
This girl really was his daughter in flesh and blood!
As expected of his dear little cotton ball, he did not dote on the little girl for nothing.
It was an absolute stark contrast to the blockheaded butler.
The little dumpling rattled on and finally concluded, “Daddy, big sister is enough to keep me company, so daddy should stay in M Country and work hard to earn more money. Daddy doesn’t have to bother rushing back home, okay?”
The smile that Mu Yichen squeezed out instantly froze on his face.
His little princess actually told him not to come back?
How could this be?
In the past, Tang Tang would always cry and ask her daddy to come back and play with her whenever Mu Yichen called home.
The little dumpling paused for a while, then said, “Daddy, I’m hanging up!”
Mu Yichen quickly said, “Wait, let me ask you this, what do you usually do when you are with your big sister at home?”
He was not concerned about that woman, he… only wanted to make sure that she was not being a bad influence to Tang Tang!
The little dumpling innocently answered, “Big sister plays jigsaw puzzles with Tang Tang, and she also tells Tang Tang stories! She even made Tang Tang a pair of pretty gloves! Oh, right, big sister also likes to draw by Tang Tang’s side…”
At this point, she suddenly lowered her voice, “Daddy, big sister draws a lot of pictures of you! Is she missing you?”
Before Mu Yichen reacted, Luo Chenxi, who had been standing by Tang Tang’s side, suddenly blushed furiously.
She did not expect the little dumpling to suddenly say such a thing!
When had Luo Chenxi ever drawn pictures of Mu Yichen?
Even if she had, it was… it was definitely not because she missed him!
It was purely because she had not gotten any inspiration for the past few days and could not finalize the designs of the remaining three menswear. That was why she was using Mu Yichen as her model for her designs, so she could reignite the state where she got her inspiration that night.
In the end, it did not really work out…
However, Tang Tang saw everything and even made up her own explanation for it.
Luo Chenxi could not help but pinched the little girl’s chubby hand, she gritted her teeth and said, “Tang Tang, don’t talk nonsense! When have I ever drawn pictures of your daddy?”
“Big sister, lying is bad, Tang Tang saw it with her own eyes!” The little dumpling unhappily puffed her cheeks.
Luo Chenxi could not imagine how Mu Yichen would react when he heard these words.
The only thing worth rejoicing was that the two of them were currently half a globe apart from each other, so it was impossible for Mu Yichen to see the embarrassed look on Luo Chenxi’s face.
Otherwise, she would totally dig a hole and hide herself in it.
Mu Yichen subconsciously curled the corners of his lips.
He knew that the woman’s cold attitude toward him was all an act. It must have been a trick to draw his attention.
Thinking of this, he said to Tang Tang, “Put your big sister on the phone.”
Tang Tang blankly blinked her eyes. Before the little girl could answer, Luo Chenxi had already vaguely heard the voice from the phone.
How would she dare answer the phone when she was already feeling so awkward? So, she immediately stood up.
“Tang Tang, didn’t you say you liked sweet and sour fish? Big sister will make some for you today!”
As Luo Chenxi finished, she escaped into the kitchen as if she was running for her life.
Mu Yichen heard the commotion on the other end of the phone and became so angry that he gritted his teeth.
‘This d*mn woman!’
How dare she cook when he was away? He had not even tried her food yet!
“Very well then, do you think I can’t do anything about you while I’m abroad?”
Mu Yichen sneered and called Zhuo Feng. “Get me the first flight back to China tomorrow morning!”
