Xiang Zhilan couldn't do anything about her, so Shen Mu stepped forward. Just as he bent down, Xiao Kui hit him, crying and shouting, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault..."

She now feels that it's all because of this uncle that her father didn't want her anymore, and now he's the person she hates the most and least wants to see.

Shen Muzhi stood there stiffly. The child had little strength, and the small hands patting his body didn't hurt, but his heart felt like it was being pricked by needles. He straightened up, stepped back to the side, looked at Luo Che, and whispered, "Please comfort him."

Luo Che walked over, squatted down, and before he could say anything, Xiao Kui pounced on him and hugged his neck, shouting that she hated him, but her arms tightened around him.

Shen Muzhi looked down at their 'deep father-daughter affection' as if he were the villain who was about to separate them.

"Daddy doesn't want Xiaokui anymore..." Xiaokui cried harder and harder.

"Uncle didn't abandon Xiao Kui." Luo Che's tears were about to fall.

“Daddy’s so bad…” Xiao Kui rubbed her tears on Luo Che’s shoulder.

"Uncle..." Luo Che was about to speak again to coax him.

Xiang Zhilan interrupted him, her voice slightly choked as she said, "A-Che, don't say anymore."

Luo Che himself couldn't bring himself to say it. It hurt him the most to correct Xiao Kui so forcefully, but what could he do?

Shen Muzhi stood to the side, watching the 'father and daughter' embrace and cry, then slowly turned around and walked towards the living room.

Xiang Zhilan turned back to look at his back, biting her lower lip. This was all her fault for not handling things well. If she had corrected him more forcefully earlier, things wouldn't have turned out this way. Now that Xiao Kui has her own thoughts and consciousness, it's very difficult to correct her.

The fear now is that if we forcefully correct this, Xiao Kui will feel that it's all Shen Muzhi's fault for making her lose Luo Che as her father, and she will dislike Shen Muzhi even more.

"Okay, okay, Xiao Kui, don't cry." Luo Che picked her up and walked around, gently lifting her to comfort her.

Seeing that Luo Che was coaxing her, Xiang Zhilan left the room, leaving the two of them alone.

When Xiang Zhilan returned to the living room, she saw Shen Muzhi sitting on the carpet playing with Hengheng, who was having a great time.

She walked over, sat down, and whispered, "I'm sorry."

Shen Muzhi shook his head and said softly, "It's my fault. It's understandable that Xiao Kui hates me. Back then, I..."

"Alright, it's all in the past," Xiang Zhilan interrupted softly, not wanting to bring up the past again.

"This is my punishment. A baby seven months in the womb is also aware of the outside world." Shen Muzhi's lips twitched bitterly.

Xiang Zhilan didn't know what to say, so she pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Daddy, Mommy." Hengheng put down his toy car, stood up, and grabbed one of their hands, saying in a childish voice, "Build me a big castle."

"Okay." Shen Muzhi smiled, patted Hengheng. His son was close to him, and he couldn't ignore him.

Xiang Zhilan felt a little guilty towards Hengheng. They had all gone to comfort Xiao Kui, leaving Hengheng alone in the living room.

She leaned closer and joined Shen Muzhi in building blocks with Hengheng.

After a long while, Luo Che comforted Xiao Kui and carried her out.

Shen Muzhi and Xiang Zhilan had just finished building the castle with Hengheng. Hengheng happily looked up and said to them in his childish voice, "This castle is our home. My dad, mom, sister and I live here."

Xiao Kui looked at them, then at Luo Che; she wanted both.

"Mom, I want Dad to live with us," Hengheng said to Xiang Zhilan, looking at her with longing.
