Ever since Huo Mian got in trouble, he had seldom had video-chats with others.
Answering the call, Qin Chu said with love on his face, “Baby…”
“Daddy, what’re you doing?” Pudding pretended to look mature but her young voice betrayed her.
“I…”
Before Qin Chu could finish, Pudding glanced at the background behind her father and said, “It seems you’re working overtime in the company, right?”
“It’s not overtime. It’s my own company and there’s no overtime pay.”
“But you didn’t listen to us; we told you to take care of yourself,” Pudding scolded her beloved father.
Not able to suppress the warmth he felt, Qin Chu revealed a smile of happiness.
“Unlike your Granduncle who’s about to retire, I’m still young and don’t need to be so careful with my health.”
“Humph. Unlike you, Granduncle knows how to take care of himself. He jogs each morning and doesn’t eat things that are too salty and too sweet; he goes to bed at 10 PM sharp every day. You must learn from Granduncle in keeping a regular schedule.”
“Got it, my little princess.”
Qin Chu only had love in his eyes when he saw his daughters.
At this moment, Little Bean stuck her head before the camera and said, “Daddy, I’m your little princess; she’s your big princess. You’re wrong.”
“Yeah, I said it wrong.”
“Humph. It shows you don’t love me.” Little Bean was jealous.
“That’s not true. I love you both…”
“If you send me an 888-yuan red packet, I’ll forgive you.” Little Bean even blackmailed her daddy.
Instead of getting angry, he smiled.
“888 is too little. I’ll give you 8,888, okay?”
“Okay, okay. Mr. Old Qin, I know you love me.”
“Little Qin, you’re blackmailing me for money to buy luxurious gifts for Boyuan, right?” Qin Chu teased her.
“No, no, no. I can’t afford luxurious stuff… Boyuan is low-maintenance. I’ll go to Disneyland and buy him an Avengers figure set.”
“You’re so good to Boyuan. Don’t you have gifts for your daddy?” Qin Chu pretended to become sulky.
Little Bean laughed so hard that she held her belly. Pointing at her daddy, she said, “My goodness. Mr. Old Qin, you even play coy with us.”
“People improve,” Qin Chu laughed.
“Because our Old Qin played coy for the first time, I’ll buy you a super big gift…”
“What gift?”
Seeing Little Bean gestur a big size, to be honest, Qin Chu thought it must be a valuable gift.
“Tell me, do you want to eat a Black Swan cake or Haagen-Dazs ice cream cake?”
Qin Chu looked exasperated…
“Is this the big gift you mentioned?” He asked her.
“Don’t you think it’s a big sacrifice for me to give you my favorite cakes?”
“Right, right. Little Qin, you’re generous.”
“Do you love me?” Little Bean pointed at her gorgeous daddy on the camera.
“Love you; love you.”
“Do you love me a little bit more than you love my sister?” Little Bean set the trap for her daddy.
Fortunately, Qin Chu kept his head clear and didn’t walk into the trap.
“I love you two equally.”
“Humph… Daddy, you always say this. It’s no fun.” Little Bean ran away.
After her sister was gone, Pudding moved closer to the camera and asked Qin Chu in a low voice, “Daddy, how has… Mommy been lately?”
