Unable to contain her curiosity, Chaochao leaned over to take a look.

This is a candy garden specially customized for the young boss by Peile Candy in accordance with Mr. Huo's instructions. Every plant, tree, house, and even a little rabbit sitting on a swing and holding a balloon, as well as a miniature replica of Chaochao's rabbit doll, are all edible fruit candies.

Huo Qin raised the corner of his eye slightly and added in a slow voice.

"This is also your reward."

The father and daughter had previously agreed that if Chaochao could strictly adhere to the rule of eating only three candies a day, she would receive an extra exquisite candy reward every week.

She collected and displayed half of them in the snack room, and naturally ate the other half.

Upon hearing Huo Qin mention the reward, the two bright lights on Chaochao crackled, flickered, and went out.

The momentum that had already dropped significantly suddenly plummeted like a phone with only 10% battery left, turning into a timid and guilty demeanor.

She did receive only three candies a day, that's true, but she also had her own stash of candies, candies secretly given to her by her grandfather and brothers, and candies given to her by the uncles and sisters at her company...

The system sighed, "My dear child, your father is a powerful business tycoon who can turn the world upside down. How could he not see that?"

"You don't want it?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Chaochao quickly reached out her little hands and happily hugged the candy box, quickly convincing herself of the solution.

Sneaking around to eat candy every day is exhausting, so she needs to take good care of herself today! Candy is definitely a must-have!

After putting the box aside, the little dumpling suddenly leaped into Huo Qin's arms and gave him another orange-flavored kiss: "I love Daddy the most—"

Separated by most of the living room, Yu Ci took the fruit plate from Aunt Ning, and heard Chaochao's loud and sweet declaration of love. She paused slightly as she turned around, her dark eyelashes drooping, and she gently ground two words between her teeth.

My favorite.

It's such an enviable word.

"Brother Yu Ci, come quickly and see the little garden Daddy gave me~ It's an edible little garden~"

After cuddling with Huo Qin, Chaochao excitedly pulled the slightly dazed boy over, making arrangements as they walked, "I can give Yu Ci a little flower, hehe, you just gave me a little white flower today, so I'll give you one too~"

Yu Ci carefully closed her fingers and held Chaochao's soft little hand, not holding it too tightly, but not so tightly that she would lose it.

That's good.

The boy's cool yet gentle eyes curved slightly. "Would you like some fruit first? We have peaches, which you like."

Before Chaochao could even open her mouth in delight, waiting to be fed, Jiang Chi's mournful voice drifted over: "What about me?"

Chaochao quickly shut her mouth and said, "Brother, you must have one too, so this little blade of grass is for you!"

Jiang Chi looked in the mirror, feeling sorry for himself, and sighed deeply:

"He is a flower, but I am a blade of grass. In the end, I am too old and no longer worthy of him."

After saying that, Huo Qin glanced at Jiang Chi with disdain in his indifferent eyes.

What's wrong with you?

However, Jiang Chi, blinded by self-pity and driven by a desire to compare himself to others, surprisingly didn't shy away. Instead, he faced Huo Qin's oppressive aura head-on and said in a low voice:

"Uncle, you don't understand because you're not in this business."

You just stand there and do nothing, and the little one's heart will immediately lean towards you.

Eager to explain, Chaochao stretched out her little hand:

"I'll give that little balloon to my brother again!"

It's a balloon being led by a little rabbit sitting on a swing.

Jiang Chi sighed three times: "So, I'm just a ball matcher."

Chaochao: "...?"

Her little face showed suspicion; what had she just said?

Later, Jiang Chi didn't ask for Chaochao's little grass and balloon candy, and only said weakly, "Just give me a kiss."

Then, Jiang Chi, who received the same treatment as Huo Qin, smiled and walked away with a spring breeze in his peach blossom eyes.

The system put down the sunflower seeds and sighed deeply.

The longest road my baby has ever walked since birth is the road of his brothers' schemes... Waaaaah, my baby, when will this intellectual dominance ever end!

Chaochao stared at Jiang Chi's back as he leisurely went upstairs, puzzled, a question mark about to pop into her head.

Are you just leaving like that? You really don't want Tangtang anymore?

The system hesitated, as if it wanted to say something but then stopped.

Baby, do you want to take a look at the person next to you?

Chaochao scratched her cheek, then turned around and saw Yu Ci sitting next to her with her eyelids half-closed, her rolled-up sleeves gathered in her pale forearms, revealing a distinct wrist bone.

But none of that matters.

Chaochao stared blankly at the small piece of peach in the fruit plate that Yu Ci had almost poked into a pulp.

"Brother Yu Ci, what are you doing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy's fingers holding the fork paused. He looked up with a normal expression and smiled apologetically, saying, "Sorry, I didn't hold the fork properly."

Chaochao glanced at the bruised and battered peach pieces on the plate, then looked up at the boy's gentle smile.

She rested her chin on her hand, lost in thought.

Yu Ci, who had just been kissed on the cheek, was stunned for a moment, and then loosened her grip.

The little dumpling, who was equally fond of everyone, picked up a fork and devoured the peach in five seconds, then patted its bottom and left, leaving Yu Ci stunned.

After successfully navigating between her two older brothers, Chaochao returned to Huo Qin's side, curiously examining the candy box from all angles. She absolutely adored the mini bunny inside! It looked exactly like her own bunny!

Chaochao snuggled up to Huo Qin, picked up her new darling, and affectionately pressed her against him through the plastic shell.

Huo Qin, who was watching the news, glanced to the side and quietly watched the little dumpling roll from one end of the sofa to the other with the new baby in his arms, and then roll back and bump into him before finally stopping. He pointed with his finger resting on his leg.

"Do you remember that you shouldn't stay up late watching TV?"
