  Shen Chuchen blinked his pretty and alluring eyes in shock as the little girl’s hug caught him off guard.

  She was as warm as a ball of marshmallow in his arms.

  Her soft voice sounded next to his ears and he hugged her tightly in silence, resting his chin on her shoulder and felt dazzled.

  The emptiness in his heart was slowly filled up with something called ‘warmth’.

  He suddenly thought of something and smiled lightly, picking the little thing up from the ground.

  Ye Sang’s body suddenly left the floor as she widened her eyes and hugged Shen Chuchen’s neck subconsciously.

  The man called her after a while, “.…… Little thing.”


  The little thing looked up at him, “Huh?”


  Shen Chuchen smiled, “Nothing.”


  “I just wanted to say that I regret it now.”


  He spoke slowly, “Sleep with me tonight.”


  Ye Sang didn’t think that the cheap uncle would change his mind in the middle of it. She yawned softly and buried her little head in his arms, asking softly, “T-Then will you go to school with Sangsang for the parent-teacher conference?”


  Shen Chuchen didn’t expect her to still remember about it at a time like this. He put the little bun on the bed and watched Ye Sang rub her eyes, then skillfully rolled into the corner, staring at him without blinking.

  But before Shen Chuchen spoke, the little thing patted the bed as if she just discovered a new land, wrapped herself in the blanket, and rolled on the bed.

  She was like a little cocoon, a little round ball.

  “Uncle……” She poked her round head out and her eyes were bright, “Your bed is so soft.”


  Shen Chuchen looked at the mess on the bed.

  “.……”


  “Little thing,” He grinded his teeth and threatened gloomily, “Go to sleep, right now.”


  It’s so late already.

  Where did she get all this energy from?

  Ye Sang rubbed her eyes and rolled off into the corner, dragging her milky voice on to negotiate with him:

  “Can uncle sleep with me?”


  “.……” Shen Chuchen moved his mouth slightly as he watched the eager little girl, eventually replying with a low ‘mhm‘.

  Whatever.

  She’s only a child.

  He can spoil her.

  Shen Chuchen would never admit that the moment Ye Sang opened the door and hugged him, his heart grew wild with joy……

  When the man got in bed, Ye Sang yawned and rolled into his arms.

  In the next second, the little thing met Shen Chuchen’s beautiful eyes—


  Ye Sang leaned in and kissed him on the cheek, then she whispered sweetly, “Uncle, good night.”


  “.……” For once, blankness appeared on Shen Chuchen’s devilish face after the kiss.

  He looked down at the little ball in his arms in a dazzle and pulled his lips.

  Did he just……

  Get harassed by a child?

  Shen Chuchen looked at the asleep child and his face was filled with confusion.

  “Little thing, Ye Sangsang, wake up!” He stretched a hand out and pinched Ye Sang’s cheeks, unexpectedly finding out that it was quite a nice touch.

  Ye Sang subconsciously covered her face and a little ‘wu‘ escaped.

  She wanted to sleep.

  Shen Chuchen heard her whimper and he couldn’t help but smile. He leaned in hesitantly and saw that Ye Sang was already fast asleep, he took revenge and kissed the little thing back on her cheeks.

  Ye Sang covered the part where he kissed her and pouted, burying herself in his arms.

  The man watched the little thing curling up in his arms quietly and snorted slightly,

  “Sleep.”


  *

  Early the next morning……

  When the little thing was still sleeping soundly in bed, someone suddenly picked her up.

  She opened her eyes sleepily and stared for a few seconds before her eyes drooped.

  “U-Uncle……”


  Shen Chuchen saw that the brat still slept when she was picked up and his lips twitched and he yelled,

  “Stop sleeping.”


  “Get the hell up!!”


  Ye Sang was startled and the hair on her head shot up in horror too.

  She stared at him in a silly way, like she got struck by lightning.

  Shen Chuchen waved a hand in front of her and reminded her with a grin, “get up.”


  He continued, “All of your three brothers are up already.”


  When she heard that her broddas were awake, she dragged on her voice and replied sleepily. “Bwut……”


  “Sangsang wants to sleep.”


  Shen Chuchen: “.……”


  When he saw that she’d rather die than get up, he gave up and forcefully dragged her up and strode downstairs with her as he stated,

  “You are definitely the laziest child I’ve ever met.”


  All of the shadow guards in the Shen family were picked by five-year-old children by the last head of the house.

  Natural selection, survival of the fittest.

  All those who remained were proved to be the most talented.

  The little thing humphed as she rested on his shoulder. She rubbed her eyes and accused, “If it wasn’t for you, Sangsang wouldn’t have gotten up late.”


  Shen Chuchen’s peach blossom-like eyes curved up slightly with a gentleness that he didn’t even notice himself.

  He remembered her coming in to comfort him in the middle of the night and smiled lightly, “I’ll go to the parent-teacher conference for you later.”


  “Go brush your teeth and wash your face.”


  The little thing nodded and saw her three older brothers sitting by the dining table when she came down.

  “Brodda……” Ye Sang called sweetly.

  But they didn’t know which brother she was calling.

  Duan Jinyan’s beautiful eyes raised slightly and asked lazily, “Little sister, which brother are you calling?”


  The little thing blinked blankly at the ‘child trafficker’ and hid behind Huo Chenyu.

  “Brodda……” she called in a tiny voice.

  Duan Jinyan rested his head on his hand and his lips curved upwards, replying with a smile, “Brother is here.”


  “Will you die if you don’t talk?” Huo Chenyu looked at him coldly, unable to tolerate anymore.

  He discovered that this guy really liked to tease his little sister.

  Duan Jinyan: “.……”


  Tsk.

  This pair of siblings is so unfriendly.

  When the table finally quieted down, the housekeeper realized that his moody master looked rather happy today……?

  Housekeeper Shen rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

  “Oi, did you notice that our owner……is a bit weird today?” Special Assistant Liu rubbed his chin thoughtfully on the side.

  “When it’s the old madam’s death anniversary, doesn’t our master always put on a gloomy face and go out to stir up chaos before calming down?”


  Did he……take the wrong medicine today?

  Everyone exchanged a confused glance with each other……

  At this moment, a Rolls-Royce stopped outside Jiyue Kindergarten silently.

  Special Assistant Zhao yawned sleepily.

  He couldn’t understand why his boss had to come here so early in the morning.

  Judging from his dark face, others who didn’t know would think that someone took his wife or something.
