Waaah, my daughter has never kissed me yet.

Unaware of the turmoil in Huo Qin's heart, Ms. Chao was very sleepy, struggling to keep her eyes open, her little head shaking incessantly, her tender voice soft and sincere—

"Chaochao really likes her dad."

It felt as if a corner of Huo Qin's heart had silently sunk.

"I'm going to sleep now..." Chaochao's eyelids closed and opened again, she was so sleepy that she was not quite conscious. "Ugh... how did McDonald fly away on the turkey... It smells so good, let Chaochao smell it again..."

She muttered to herself as she swam out of the study.

Huo Qin sat for a long time, accompanied by the endless night outside the window, the nib of his pen spreading a thick circle of ink on the white paper.

...

It was Chaochao's first time sleeping in an unfamiliar room, and she was a little scared. Fortunately, with the system's help and the overwhelming drowsiness, Chaochao slept soundly until dawn.

After waking up, Chaochao slowly climbed out of bed, and walked sleepily to the door of the master bedroom, only to find that no one was in the room.

"Xiaoqi, where did Daddy go?"

The system indicated that it was also unsure.

From dawn onwards, it was filled with worry: was Huoqin going to drive the baby away today?

Having had a good night's rest, Chaochao was full of energy. She immediately went downstairs and soon met Huo Qin in the restaurant.

Huo Qin was having breakfast, dressed in a sharp, high-end bespoke suit. He exuded an air of aloofness and authority, making people hesitant to approach him and only lingering outside his aura.

However, Chaochao fearlessly broke through the defenses. She ran over happily, "Good morning, Daddy!"

Huo Qin paused in his grip on the fork, his response much more subdued: "Hmm."

But the child's eyes were bright and sparkling, and he was still staring at him without blinking.

Huo Qin: "...Good morning."

Every morning, her wishes come true, her eyes crinkling with laughter, radiant like the rising sun.

He shifted his gaze somewhat awkwardly and reminded him:

"Have breakfast after you've washed up."

Huo Qin's meals are usually provided by a chef from a five-star hotel or above.

The children's breakfast is also placed in an insulated box, so there's no need to worry about it getting cold.

Chaochao responded softly and then ran upstairs.

In the bathroom, she skillfully climbed onto the toilet seat. Although she had done it once last night, she was still on tenterhooks, afraid that Chaochao would slip and fall.

Chaochao stood on the toilet seat, leaning forward with difficulty, almost hanging half of her body on the edge of the sink, just to barely reach the water.

The next second, the system's jinx came true. Chaochao, standing on tiptoe on the condensed water droplets, suddenly lost her balance!

system:"!!!"

Just as Chaochao's head was about to slam hard against the hard porcelain surface, the system was about to activate its emergency protection settings—

Her body was suddenly lifted into the air.
