Chapter 5: Where Did The Child Come From?

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Huo Yao was never a good person, there were only schemes to benefits himself in his eyes.

Family affection was unworthy of being mentioned in front of profits.

Huo Yao rubbed the space between his brows and humphed coldly, not wanting to bother to struggle with so many questions.

The car stopped and the man got out first.

Little Ye Sang was swaying from side to side due to sleepiness. She saw Huo Yao’s long legs and compared them to her short little legs; she was silent for a few seconds before hugging tightly onto Huo Yao’s thigh without hesitation, hanging herself completely off his thigh.

So far…

Don’t wanna walk anymore. 

“…”

Huo Yao restrained himself from throwing the child down with a cold and indifferent face, grabbing her by the back collar and striding forwards.

The little girl struggled restlessly a few times and then glanced around her with her big cat eyes.

“Daddy…”

“Where are you taking me to?”

Huo Yao went silent for a few seconds and pushed down his temper.

“Home.”

“Okay!” The little thing uncomfortably twisted her round body and drooped her head, curiously studying the surroundings without talking for once.

Huo Yao narrowed his eyes as the little thing had babbled on the way nonstop but suddenly quieted down now. He glanced at her.

“Not talking?” The man carried the girl as he walked inside the mansion leisurely.

The little girl shook her head madly without speaking.

A hint of a small flash subtly appeared across the bottom of the man’s calm eyes and he couldn’t help but stretch out and pinch Ye Sang’s soft face.

Inside the mansion.

Aunt Li, who was doing chores, was startled by the sound when she heard it.

Then, she saw Huo Yao come in, and she quickly dropped the chores and approached him.

“Sir, you are back.”

Huo Yao replied and dropped the little thing on the ground as he ordered, “Arrange a room for her.”

After a short pause, he added, “And give her some children’s clothes.”

Huo Yao never had the experience of taking care of children so naturally, he wouldn’t be attentive to it

Let alone… 

It was hard to say if she was really his daughter or not.

Aunt Li couldn’t help but look at Ye Sang and study her.

She widened her eyes in shock.

… A, a child?

Where did the child come from?

Aunt Li had worked here for almost five years with Old Master Huo who lived here, and the young master rarely came back.

It was surprising enough to her that he suddenly came back, let alone the fact that he brought back a little thing about four or five years old.

But again, she knew what she should and shouldn’t be saying.

Although she was confused, she still dealt with it calmly. She waved at the little girl and softly cooed, “Come child, come to Aunt…”

The little thing was dropped and freed; she looked up and slowly threw herself forward with outstretched hands.

The ball’s soft and chubby body hit Aunt Li’s arms and made her heart as soft as ever.

Happiness and gentleness rose in Aunt Li’s eyes and she couldn’t help but rub the girl’s hair.

She was such a good child.

Because of a problem with her body, she wasn’t able to bear a child and she was envious when she saw her relative’s children.

Now that a little girl who seemed to be the little master here at the Huo family appeared, how could she not be happy?

“Little thing, what’s your name?” Aunt Li hugged the chubby girl and tried her best to push down her furiously-curving-up lips, but the smile on her face was bright.

The little thing rubbed her face and replied adorably, “Sangsang.”

Aunt Li complimented with a smile, “So your name is Sangsang? That’s such a cute name.”

Huo Yao watched the two interact from the side with a cold eye.

Every time he came back, all the maids, including Aunt Li, served him while trembling with fear.

There was never a time like now where he was completely ignored.

When the little girl mentioned her name, her cat eyes lit up.

She leaned in slightly and her eyes curved into two crescents.

“My Grandpas picked the name for me.”

“They said Sangsang is cute too.”

—— Grandpa? 

What Grandpa?
