Chapter 9: Because He’s Daddy
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
She was such a good girl and he didn’t even have the chance to spoil her, and this stinky brat bullied her?
The elder yelled imposingly and little Ye Sang shrank her neck into her clothes as she jumped.
Huo Yao turned a deaf ear to Grandpa Huo’s scolding and his face was expressionless as usual.
He sneered silently in his heart.
She sure learned something new.
Learned to get support from her Grandpa.
The little thing realized that someone was helping her, and she moved her cat eyes and immediately became bolder. She hid behind Grandpa Hou and stuck her head out while calling him in her sweet voice, “Grandpa...” 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
“Ei, Grandpa is right here.” Old Master Huo’s mind and body felt refreshed at the sound of her and quickly lowered his body to hug her. He rubbed her head lovingly and the smile in his eyes almost overflowed.
He glared at Huo Yao in warning then rubbed her fluffy head lightly again. His words were full of adoration and indulgence, “Don’t be scared, Sangsang.”
Grandpa Huo chuckled, “If this unfilial son dares to touch you, I’ll chase him out of the house.”
Chase him out?
Ye Sang heard it and hesitated, “Will Daddy starve to death?”
Old Master Huo had a pause as he didn’t seem to expect Ye Sang to say something like this. He was shocked for a few seconds but pinched her face and teased her kindly, “Does Sangsang want him to starve to death?”
Huo Yao coldly watched the ‘grandfather and granddaughter’s’ friendly and loving interactions and cold air soared around him.
The man thought unpleasantly.
This is his daughter.
After Old Master Huo asked her, Ye Sang earnestly shook her head, “I don’t want to.”
Old Master Huo didn’t expect this to be the answer.
Even a dog wouldn’t like his son’s personality, yet a child likes him?
Grandpa Huo thought it was a rare thing and squatted down to hug her and asked,
“He’s so bad, why do you still want Daddy?”
Ye Sang tilted her head sideways and pondered for a while, “Because he’s Daddy.”
The little thing’s voice was clear and crisp. When her cat eyes looked at Huo Yao, they were bright and filled with respect, “No matter how bad he is, he is still Sangsang’s Daddy!”
Although her cheap Daddy’s values were incorrect.
Although her cheap Daddy would set fire and kill people.
However...
He’s still her Daddy no matter how evil he was.
Huo Yao, who was standing coldly by the door, suddenly froze, obviously surprised that the little thing said this.
The man’s calm and cold expressions fluctuated subtly.
His thin lips moved slightly and he looked down to meet her respectful eyes. He swallowed the words, “I’m not your Dad”, for no reason.
Ye Sang’s eyes lit up when he didn’t oppose her. She immediately stumbled as she threw herself towards the man without another thought. The soft little ball fell into his arms.
“Daddy, Daddy!” She called softly and her eyes glowed like stars. The moment she threw herself towards him, his cold and stiff heart suddenly softened.
The man squatted down rigidly as he caught the girl who flew. He looked down and tightly hugged the soft little thing in his arms. He rubbed the soft top of her head and replied in a low voice after a long silence.
“...Good girl.”
Huo Yao didn’t realize how gentle his eyes were at this moment.
