drop--

The friendship level with Supreme Treasure has increased by one!

“…”

Teng Yi, who still felt a little nervous and cautious, suddenly relaxed involuntarily.

At this moment, his logic was surprisingly in sync with that of Supreme Treasure, oh no, I mean little Chaochao.

Since he can raise such an adorable daughter as Chaochao, Mr. Huo must be a kind-hearted and extremely wealthy man.

Feeling relieved, Teng Yi used a particularly flattering but not obsequious tone to praise, "Oh dear, during the previous episodes of the show, Chaochao kept saying she missed her dad."

Jiang Chi slowly turned his head and looked at Teng Shidi as if he were a stranger.

Chaochao was delighted and even tried to tug at Leo's father's clothes to make him lower his profile, because she was about to get shy.

Huo Qin's eyebrows twitched slightly, and his gaze swept over the room with a hint of mockery.

The little dumpling, who was about to be coaxed into shyness, immediately puffed out her chest and looked at her father with an open and confident gaze:

"Well, I just think that they're still young."

She's at the age where she can't live without her dad.

Huo Qin remained silent for three seconds, then withdrew his gaze expressionlessly: "I didn't say it was wrong of me to miss you."

Chaochao narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

Unfortunately, her three-and-a-half-year-old intelligence couldn't quite grasp the fleeting tenderness in her father's eyes. She pouted like a pufferfish—deciding to ignore her dad for ten seconds, hmph.

Jiang Chi precisely caught the pleased curve of Huo Qin's eyebrows and suddenly seriously considered whether he should ask Teng Yi for advice on how to flatter people. This TV King's skill in flattery was far superior to his own ability to survive by breaking his leg.

"..." Teng Yi finally noticed the frozen atmosphere behind him. The Wu couple seemed frozen in place, and Changchang was silently shedding tears. His heart skipped a beat: "What's this...?"

Huo Qin had already taken the little dumpling's hand, who was pretending to be sulking. His slender fingers gently squeezed the chubby palm—the ten-second cold war was over.

"They're gone."

The man strode forward, his back view practically screaming "waste of time."

[Haha, the father-daughter cold war ended so quickly!]

[What should I do? Right now, when I look at CEO Huo, he's just switching back and forth between being a doting father who loves to tease his daughter and an unapproachable billionaire CEO...]

Am I the only one who noticed the longing in Jiang Chi's eyes?

【Changchang, don't cry QAQ】

Chaochao's anger instantly deflated. She turned to look behind her, hesitantly saying, "But Brother Changchang..."

Huo Qin casually picked up Tuanzi without turning his head and said indifferently, "Changchang's parents will handle it."

Chaochao thought it made sense. She had been full of energy just now, but as soon as she leaned against the strong and broad shoulders and smelled the familiar scent of cedar, she immediately felt sleepy and started to doze off like a chick pecking at rice.

The tall and outstanding figure gradually faded into the distance.

Tao Yunxiao's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily. She was filled with doubts, and an almost impossible idea was about to emerge, but she repeatedly suppressed it.

No...it can't be!

If so! Jiang Chi should have been the crown prince of the Chinese entertainment industry from the moment he debuted. He wouldn't have to do anything, and countless S+ resources and good opportunities would be showered upon him. Why would he need to lower himself to please rich women?

If it were true... those negative keywords wouldn't have dominated the trending topics all night!

"What's wrong with you guys?"

Teng Yi frowned; the two of them had increasingly strange expressions.

Wu Shang was the first to regain his composure. He secretly patted Tao Yunxiao's hand, then calmed himself down and replied in a normal tone, "It's nothing, just a little kid throwing a tantrum. We'll coax him into it."

"This is my wife, Tao Yunxiao. Teacher Teng Yi should still remember her, right?"

Teng Yi nodded. A year ago, he and Tao Yunxiao had indeed recorded a book-related program together. He couldn't help but chuckle, "Of course I remember."

He glanced discreetly at Changchang, who stood silently between them with her head down, then looked at Tao Yunxiao, whose face was stiff, his mind unsure of Wu Shang's answer.

Is it really a child's problem?

Are you sure it's not an adult?

While Teng Yi was pondering silently.

Wu Shang hesitated for a moment before carefully choosing his words:

"Teacher Teng, you said you've met Chaochao's father before?"

Moreover, they also called him "President Huo".

Teng Yi was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, unsure of himself, "I guess so."

The other party cautiously withdrew no further information, leaving Wu Shang feeling somewhat disappointed.

Seeing this unusual expression, Teng Yi couldn't help but sense something strange about it.

"Then...do you know who he is?" Wu Shang coughed awkwardly, his voice tight. "He seems vaguely familiar..."

The second half of the sentence is vague, like self-consolation.

Teng Yi frowned and remained silent, keenly noticing the fleeting hope in his eyes... hope? Was it the hope that Chaochao's father was someone, or someone else?

"Mr. Huo didn't introduce himself?"

“He said so,” Wu Shang answered instinctively, “He said his name is Huo Qin.”

Then there shouldn't be any problem.

“Hmm,” Teng Yi nodded, then calmly threw out a bombshell that instantly blew Wu Shang to smithereens. “Chao Chao’s father, Huo Qin, president of the Huo Group. The Huo Group that developed the Lingxi chip and was repeatedly reported by the central media.”

Tao Yunxiao, who had remained silent all along, suddenly looked up as if from the dead, her pupils contracting sharply: "How could this be—"

A shocked, hoarse voice stuck in his throat.

The Huo family, which overshadowed all other aristocratic families?

That grandfather was even wary of mentioning it...

She suddenly realized she had made a fatal mistake.
