To everyone's surprise, the cub actually read it aloud.

"Yuji Hoshino Corporation, employee Shi Qianxi, position: deputy director of the project department."

"&%%￥..."

Although the toddler stutters when he sees English words, it's amazing that he can recognize so many words for a three-year-old!

Who understands the Chinese people's belief that they can't afford to lose at the starting line in their lives!

The crowd watching the game erupted in cheers.

It startled people from neighboring countries.

"Wait, did your country's chosen ones clear the level so quickly?"

"No. It's just that our chosen one can read very long sentences; he knows a lot of words!"

People from other countries: Huh? The Chinese have finally gone mad? Does that mean they can take this opportunity to rise to power?

Unfortunately, it doesn't work.

The cubs have discovered that the name tag is something the father usually wears around his neck, but today he completely forgot about it.

So the baby is thinking about how to give the employee ID card to his father.

Just then, someone dialed the home landline.

The landline rang several times, but the cub didn't answer. Then it turned into knocking on the door. When that was ignored, it turned into knocking on the window.

But the cub's home is on the fourth floor.

The atmosphere grew increasingly eerie, and with only the cub alone in the house, some viewers were too afraid to watch.

But the cub seemed to be a seasoned veteran; no matter how terrifying the scene or atmosphere, it couldn't frighten him. He would even show a hint of helplessness, as if he were truly a member of the family and had become accustomed to this eerie life.

If you only look at this composition, others would probably think that the seemingly harmless cub is actually the cunning final boss.

...In any case, these people were right.

Unfortunately, what I guessed was the plot of another world.

The cub listened to the knocking sounds outside the window, tapping open the snack bag in rhythm, even treating it as harmless background music.

The cub had just sat on a small stool and looked through the peephole, but it didn't see anyone in the hallway.

There wasn't even a ghost in sight.

I don't know where the knocking came from.

Seeing that the cubs were unmoved, the knocking became more forceful, and even the father's voice could be heard.

"Honey, open the door..."

Even though it was daytime, hearing that sound sent a chill down my spine for no apparent reason.

The cub curiously walked to the door and listened to the sounds outside for a while. Sure enough, his father's voice came again. Because it was so close, it felt like his father was gently holding him in his ear.

“Baby, it’s Daddy.”

The toddler listened attentively, then suddenly asked, "Daddy, is the cut on your throat healed? Why can't you speak with any more airflow?"

Dad suddenly fell silent and didn't answer.

He seemed to think that the cub really didn't recognize him, and was about to return home disheartened.

The little guy, however, thought he was incredibly clever. He slipped his father's work badge under the door, muttering to himself:

"Dad won't let me go out, so this is all I can give you, Dad. Don't be bullied, don't get hurt, and don't let anything happen to you."

The shadow outside the door paused.

Although he couldn't see his father's face, the child could tell it was really his father just by looking at the tall shadow and the way it paced back and forth.

Although he wasn't sure if it was real or an illusion, the child felt that the voice was that of his father from last night.

The cub has already realized that the father at night seems different from the father during the day; they are not the same person.

But the baby's first reaction was, does that mean every father suffers so much, coming home covered in blood to find him?

Although the child doesn't understand why his father can't stay by his side and makes strange noises to trick him into opening the door, he can understand all of his father's odd behavior.

Because originally, he was also a strange, disliked child.

So, the cub only hopes that its father won't get hurt.

The father outside the door paused.

The next second, a game notification sound rang in the cub's ear:

[Congratulations to the player for exceeding the NPC's favorability threshold and successfully unlocking the side quest. The player will enter the side quest content in three seconds. Quest: Redeem NPC Shi Qianxi and change his predetermined life.]

The next second, question marks appeared on the screen:

"Weren't the Chosen Ones and the Cubs playing the same infinite game? How come after watching the game for so long, I didn't know that NPC favorability could be increased, or that there were separate side quests?"

"No, son, is the one playing a pirated version or am I playing a pirated version?"

But no matter how loud the noise outside was, the cub was sent to the side story three seconds later.

The dazed little cub got up, moved his arms and legs, and found that he seemed to have grown a little bigger than before, looking like he was four or five years old. Suddenly, many little ones about his height appeared around him, making a lot of noise, which made the cub a little confused.

"Alright, alright."

The teacher came over and plucked away the little bean-like creatures next to the cubs one by one:

"Don't keep crowding around Qianyuan. Don't push him around. He's not in good health."

But clearly, the other little ones didn't listen.

Children's preferences are more obvious than adults'. Qianyuan, who recently transferred to the school, has a delicate and beautiful appearance, like a snowman doll in the children's minds. She is also dressed in exquisite and luxurious clothes, and her health is not good. She looks pale and weak, which makes people feel sorry for her.

The children may not understand this feeling of a sickly beauty yet, but they already like it very much.

They liked each other so much that they were vying to be Qianyuan's deskmate.

However, Qianyuan didn't seem as energetic as the other children. He spoke softly and slowly, and no one listened to what he was saying before the teacher sent him back home.

The teacher told Qianyuan to sit in the back.

Qianyuan hugged her schoolbag and nodded with a solemn expression.

My son was still thinking about how he was suddenly in kindergarten. He was so focused on walking that when he sat down and looked up, he realized that the child next to him looked familiar.

cub: ?

The boy suddenly turned his head and stared at the other person.

Sure enough, I saw it—a small mole under the other person's lip.

It's Dad!!!

Although Dad has shrunk, his features are still delicate and lovely, with big eyes and a quiet, melancholic look.

The cub's eyes lit up instantly.

Dad has grown to be almost the same age as him! And they even go to kindergarten together!

The cub quickly recovered from its aversion to school.

He happily approached the other person and immediately reached out to hug their arm:

"Daddy, I love you so much. Daddy is the best dad in the world, and you go to kindergarten with me."

Shi Qianxi: ?

Shi Qianxi stared blankly at the new child.

It's clear that the child is pampered and spoiled, and because of his poor health, he looks like a pampered little prince.

Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be very bright.
