“Did you know? Ye Jin was so well-behaved when he was a child. When he was just born, he was a tiny little bundle of joy. Anyone who saw him would like him, including you.”
The man did not get angry, but spoke to himself.
“What exactly are you trying to say?”
“Is what I want to say not clear enough?”
“Or has being in love made you stupid?”
Ye Moran carefully recalled the words he had spoken. Suddenly, her eyes widened, filled with utter disbelief!
The other party just said the Little Fellow was a little bundle when he was born, which meant he had seen the Little Fellow when he was a newborn. What kind of person would have seen the Little Fellow at birth?
“Do you mean to say that you are Ye Jin’s father?”
Ye Moran’s breathing became rapid, and her eyes turned bloodshot. It was as if she would rush over and tear him to pieces the moment he gave an answer that displeased her!
“No.”
“???”
“Su Xing, are you playing me?”
Ye Moran suddenly slapped the table and stood up. She was almost laughing from anger; she had actually been fooled by this guy. She had even been nervous for a moment!
“I think you should show a bit more respect to me, your father. At the very least, you should have basic manners.”
“Do you think you are worthy of being my father?”
Ye Moran looked at him coldly, as if she were looking at a stranger rather than her father!
Su Xing was silent for a moment, and the smile on his face slowly faded.
“He is indeed not my child.”
“However, I know who his parents are…”
Su Xing lowered his eyes, a trace of an unreadable emotion swirling within them.
“I have no interest in knowing that. I only want to know what your purpose is for seeking me out today?!”
“I want you to go on a Blind Date.”
Su Xing’s tone held a hint of hesitation. He looked at his daughter before him, his mood suddenly becoming complicated.
Perhaps, she really shouldn’t have been born back then?
Su Xing stood up. “I’m going to the restroom.”
Ye Moran did not speak, her gaze involuntarily drifting toward the window.
Even though so many years had passed, whenever she faced this man, she still could not remain calm!
Especially since this man was using the Little Fellow to threaten her!
After Su Xing finished in the bathroom, he saw that Ye Moran was still there. He felt a bit surprised; he had thought she would have left on her own.
He walked over and stood there for a long time, as if he had finally found the right words before slowly speaking.
“Don’t make your mother unhappy. Go to the Banquet. I’m not really trying to use the matter of Ye Jin to threaten you.”
“I can’t control your affairs, but don’t make your mother angry.”
“Heh!~”
Ye Moran let out a cold sneer.
Mother.
That person wasn’t her mother. Her mother had died long ago, killed by the man standing in front of her!
She felt only extreme ridicule in her heart.
This man had abandoned her at an Orphanage when she was very young, and now he was telling her he couldn’t control her?
Had he ever actually cared for her?
No, never. There was only hatred between the two of them!
Only the hatred of being abandoned as a child and the hatred of him killing her mother!
—
Su Ling sat by the window in a daze. He wanted to go out, but he was afraid that person would be angry.
Moreover, he was in a very bad mood. The incident where he broke a plate at noon was like a reminder, reminding him that he couldn’t do anything right.
He was just a piece of trash who could never do anything well.
These thoughts kept swirling in his mind, preventing his mood from improving.
When Ye Moran pushed the door open and entered, she saw the Little Fellow curled up alone on the sofa, his hands hugging his knees and only his head showing. He looked dazed and silly, quite cute!
The bit of gloom in her heart lightened because she saw the Little Fellow.
She tip-toed over and, before the Little Fellow could react, she pulled him into a hug!
“Little Fellow, what are you thinking about? Can you tell Master?”
“Ugh… No, nothing. Let go of me.”
Su Ling was startled by her sudden action and instinctively struggled.
“No, I want to keep holding you like this forever and ever. I’ll never let go!”
“Ugh…”
A flush of red quickly spread across Su Ling’s small face.
This was the first time he had heard such sweet words, and he simply couldn’t handle it.
“Hehe, Little Fellow, you are mine. Now I want to…”
“You can’t!”
“Why?”
Ye Moran was puzzled. This was already the second time the Little Fellow had rejected her.
“I said no, so no! You… you promised me that you would seek my consent first!”
Ye Moran fell silent. She suddenly regretted promising the Little Fellow that, as it resulted in her being unable to do what she wanted now!
However, she soon smiled!
“Of course, I won’t forget the things I promised you!”
“But it really has been a long time. I really miss it!”
Ye Moran’s voice was plaintive, and her expression was full of sorrow.
When Su Ling saw her like this, his heart inexplicably softened. But if that kind of thing happened, he would be bullied again and unable to get out of bed!
And this person was getting more excessive every time. Previously, she could clearly act with Tenderness, but now she was violent every time!
She didn’t take care of him at all!
Thinking of this, the softness in his heart was immediately dispelled, and he shook his head firmly!
“I can’t agree to that. You should just give up on that idea!”
“Ah, really? You can’t?”
“You… don’t cry! You!”
When Su Ling heard her slightly sobbing tone, the trace of firmness that had just risen in his heart vanished instantly!
“Then, will the Little Fellow agree to it?”
“I can’t. You’re too excessive every time. I can’t let you be like that. I still want to go out and play.”
“Is that so?”
“Then it seems that in the Little Fellow’s heart, I’m not even as important as going out to play.”
“That’s not it. You… how can you say that?”
“I… I can’t agree to it.”
After hesitating again and again, Su Ling still shook his head.
Ye Moran suddenly released the Little Fellow and gave a self-deprecating laugh, looking somewhat dejected as she prepared to leave!
She really felt a bit bad. She had performed to such an extent, yet the Little Fellow remained unmoved.
Did he really not have a single bit of heart for her?
Watching his Elder Sister’s despondent appearance, Su Ling felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. He clutched his chest and lowered his head.
He really didn’t know what to do. His mind was a mess. He didn’t want his sister to be so sad, but he didn’t want to be treated like that by her either!
But seeing his sister in this state, he finally softened his heart.
“Wait!”
He jumped off the sofa, intending to run over barefoot. Just as he took a step, a sharp pain shot up from the sole of his foot!
“Ah!~”
He let out a cry of pain as his footing became unstable, and his body fell heavily to the ground!
“Little Fellow?!”
Hearing the movement behind her, Ye Moran quickly turned around and saw the Little Fellow collapsed on the floor.
Her heart tightened, and she immediately ran over!
“What’s wrong?”
She picked up the Little Fellow and walked a few steps to place him on the bed.
“It hurts…”
Su Ling’s eyes were filled with tears as he pointed to the sole of his foot.
Ye Moran looked down and saw a small, sharp piece of porcelain that had accurately pierced into the center of the Little Fellow’s foot!
The Little Fellow’s light red blood slowly dripped down along the white porcelain shard. Drop after drop, it was like a seductive magical potion, tempting her!
“Gulp!~”
She swallowed hard and carefully lifted the Little Fellow’s small foot. Studying the shard closely, she reached out her fingers, pinched it, and pulled the shard out in one go!
Su Ling was in pain and was about to cry out, but before he could, he saw a scene that left him shocked!
