Xu Xiusen stood outside the door with the demeanor of an elder, waiting for Xu Moran. It was almost the end of the year, and the southern city of B was already feeling the biting chill of winter.

Fearing that Xu Moran might be cold if he wasn't dressed warmly enough, he whispered with concern into the doorway, "Mo Mo, it's a bit cold outside, wear more clothes."

Xu Moran hummed in agreement and quickened her pace of changing clothes. In order not to disappoint Xu Xiusen, she wore the coat he had just given her.

In fact, Xu Xiusen has good taste; both the size and color suit Xu Moran very well.

When Xu Xiusen saw Xu Moran, he was completely stunned, and his expression was one of astonishment and shock.

It's so similar, it's uncanny.

That temperament and demeanor are so similar to Huiwen's.

Even without the definitive paternity test report, just by looking at Xu Moran standing in front of him, he was certain that she was his and Huiwen's biological daughter.

"You child..." Xu Xiusen said to Xu Moran in a tone that seemed to be scolding but was actually concerned, "Really, didn't Dad just tell you that it's cold and you should wear more clothes? How come you're going out without even wearing a scarf? Aren't you afraid of getting cold?"

Just as Xu Moran was about to say that she never had the habit of wearing a scarf, a scarf had already appeared around her neck.

The scarf was incredibly soft; it was definitely a top-quality cashmere scarf. Xu Moran felt like a seven or eight-year-old child, no, even younger, about five or six years old, enjoying Xu Xiusen's meticulous care.

Xu Xiusen tied a bow for Xu Moran, saying, "Mo Mo, that's how you girls are. You prioritize style over warmth and don't know how to take good care of yourselves. From now on, with your dad here, I will take good care of you."

His words were filled with the pride of being a father.

Xu Moran looked down at the rather plain-looking bow on her neck, and like her name, remained silent.

Seeing that Xu Moran was about to leave, Xiao Mei became anxious, pawing at the door and nudging Xu Moran's hand, indicating that it insisted on going out with him.

Xu Moran, unaware that Xiao Mei had been specifically instructed by Xiao Anhe, assumed she was bored at home and asked Xu Xiusen for his opinion, "Can I bring it with me?"

Xu Xiusen replied without hesitation, "Of course."

Thinking of something, he looked into Xu Moran's eyes and said earnestly, "Momo, I am your father. In my heart, even if you were a hundred years old now, you would always be my precious darling. I will fulfill any request you make. My biggest regret now is that time flies by so fast. In the blink of an eye, you've grown up so much. I didn't even have the chance to let you ride on my shoulders like a horse, I didn't have the chance to take you to the park to ride bumper cars, and I didn't have the chance to buy you your favorite ice cream. There are so many regrets..."

Xu Moran continued to look down at the bow. What could she say? Judging from everything Xu Xiusen had done for her recently, he definitely treated her like his own daughter.

Xiao Mei is no longer a single dog. As the best boyfriend dog, it's time for it to take its girlfriend out with it.

Xu Moran had no objections, and as for Xu Xiusen's opinion, he had already said so much, so she didn't need to ask him again. And so, the two of them and their two dogs went out for a late-night snack.

Originally, Xu Xiusen wanted to take Xu Moran to a fancy Western restaurant, and he had already made reservations. However, Xu Moran said that he would just eat something casual, so he nodded in agreement.

Xu Moran secretly glanced at Xu Xiusen's profile. Even in middle age, one could still see the handsome features he had in his youth. If his daughter were really alive, with such a loving father, she would surely be the happiest person in the world.

Xu Xiusen didn't let the driver drive today; he drove himself, taking Xu Moran to a small restaurant located in an alley.

The restaurant is small, but it does a great job.

It's clear that Xu Xiusen is a regular here; he ordered several dishes without even looking at the menu.

The boss was very warm towards Xu Xiusen, not in the way a boss would show to a customer, but as a friend.

"Young lady, your father is my former boss. Back then, thanks to his help, I was able to save my son's life and also have this small restaurant. In the future, whatever you want to eat, come often, and Uncle Chen will cook it for you." The owner said with a smile as he poured water for Xu Xiusen and then poured water for Xu Moran.

Xu Moran smiled as she accepted the water the shopkeeper poured for her and politely thanked him, "Thank you, Uncle Chen."

The boss surnamed Chen smiled and said to Xu Xiusen, "Old boss, I told you, good people are rewarded. Heaven has eyes for such good people as you and your wife. How could it let Miss die young? Look, how wonderful! After so many years, Miss has finally been found. Your wife can rest in peace now."

As he spoke, Mr. Chen couldn't help but wipe his red eyes.

Xu Moran pursed her lips, truly feeling that it would be difficult to explain the fact that she was not Xu Xiusen's biological daughter.

Boss Chen went to place the order, leaving Xu Xiusen and Xu Moran sitting face to face.

Xu Moran originally wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with Xu Xiusen and tell him clearly that she was an orphan who had been in the B City orphanage since she was old enough to understand things. She had no idea who her parents were, so how could she possibly be his biological daughter? However, before she could speak, Xu Xiusen magically produced a lot of things and put them on the table.

Xu Moran glanced at the items and noticed that there were princess-shaped music boxes, various small jewelry pieces, and many other fancy things that little girls like.

She was speechless. Did Xu Xiusen really think of her as a teenage girl?

"Mo Mo." Xu Xiusen looked into Xu Moran's eyes, half filled with self-reproach and half with doting affection. "Dad lost money on you, and from now on, I'll make it up to you double!"
