"I even saw snakes~ but they were all from the same family, so An'an let them go~"

Moreover, the snake looked dazed and didn't move at all.

According to An'an's description, she didn't encounter any scary invertebrates, but rather some cute little animals.

Ordinary children wouldn't react like Anman.

Gu Tingxiao and Helian Min, who were holding little Anman, exchanged a glance. The eyes of the two people with very different temperaments conveyed the same meaning.

An An's identity is unclear, and the two people who care about Xiao An Man are naturally worried that if she accidentally exposes herself to the public, it will bring trouble to herself.

The world may not necessarily reject those who are different, but the excessive and frantic interpretations of a single thing by the crowd and the strange looks they receive are no less troublesome than not being accepted at all.

"Does An'an want to have a pet? Daddy will take you to choose one tomorrow, okay?"

Gu Tingxiao will ask Helian Min about the snake later.

Pets?

Xiao An didn't really understand, but since her dad said he would take her, of course she wanted to go.

"Okay, then Daddy has to come with me tomorrow~"

Clutching at Gu Tingxiao's clothes, her little voice was sweet and gentle: "Daddy is a very busy man, so An'an should cherish every opportunity to be with Daddy."

"Um."

The soft little body in her arms carried a heartwarming power, and the tall, handsome man gazed at her with deep black eyes, his eyes filled with tenderness.

"I'm going back."

Helian Min lowered her eyes, refusing to look at the scene of father and daughter enjoying a loving family time.

Didn't we already leave room for my brother at home?

As soon as Xiao Anman heard Helian Min say that she wanted to go back, she immediately turned her little head and said anxiously, "Brother, don't go."

Her level of liking for it is probably comparable to her whole suitcase of sparkly items, right?

Gu Tingxiao gently patted her back, noticing her anxiously raised eyebrows, but didn't say anything.

He would not object to the decision to have Xiao Anman and Helian Min involved.

Helian Min raised her hand and touched her ears, which had long since become useless, and looked at the little dumpling in Gu Tingxiao's arms.

Under the bright lights, a hint of regret flickered across the boy's ethereal eyes.

I really can't hear a single thing.

Gu Tingxiao also noticed Helian Min's actions. Most of the time, his expression was no different from that of a normal person. Who would have thought that the world of such a perfect boy, who seemed like a figure in a painting, was silent?

"Brother, don't go!"

With its short arms, it struggled to reach forward, trying to touch Helian Min.

"good."

The young man's slender, jade-like fingers covered Xiao Anman's hand.

His voice was as moving as ever.

Wow, my brother really isn't leaving!

Xiao Anman's beautiful big eyes curved into a bright crescent moon.

"An'an, isn't it time for bed?"

"hold head high."

Before she knew it, it was time to rest. Xiao An nodded obediently, but as she nodded, she looked at Helian Min.

"Brother, tell me a story!"

To be honest, Helian Min has a better talent for storytelling than Gu Tingxiao.

Gu Tingxiao also has a great voice, deep and charming, making him a dream come true for fans who adore deep voices.

The usually aloof and domineering CEO Gu showed a crack in his usually cold and aloof demeanor after hearing his beloved daughter's words.

Doesn't An'an want herself anymore?

Why don't you tell her the story yourself?

"An'an, Dad will take you back to your room."

Unable to bring himself to be jealous of a mere young man, Gu Tingxiao chose to change the subject.

The boy standing under the lamplight, however, had a slight smile on his handsome face.

Then, seeing the soft top of the little dumpling nestled in Gu Tingxiao's arms, he lifted his foot and followed.

An'an wanted to hear his story, so naturally he went.

As Gu Tingxiao placed Xiao Anman on the bed, he caught a glimpse of Helian Min, who had already stepped into the room.

How could you be so inconsiderate?

This is the resentment of the elderly father, Mr. Gu.

Didn't you see he was trying to put his precious daughter to sleep?

But since this was the person Xiao Anman specifically requested to come and tell her a story.

"An'an, are you sleepy?"

Turning his gaze away, Gu Tingxiao tucked Xiao Anman into bed.

Unfortunately, despite having a fulfilling day, Xiao Anman didn't feel tired at all. Instead, she stared intently at Gu Tingxiao with her bright, clear eyes, then shook her head.

Well, I guess I don't want to sleep for a while.

"Brother, come here quickly, tell me a story!"

With a sweet, childlike voice full of anticipation, Xiao Anman pulled her little hands out from under the covers and waved to Helian Min.

The forgotten old father sat on the edge of the bed to Xiao Anman's left, eyeing the boy who was about to take his place and tell stories to his beloved daughter.

Helian Min pretended not to see Gu Tingxiao's gaze and casually picked up the fairy tale book on the table.

Then we arrived at Xiao Anman's right side.

"Daddy, let's all listen together~"

Finally remembering that her father was waiting anxiously beside her, Xiao An tugged at Gu Tingxiao's hand, signaling him to move closer.

It's convenient to listen to stories together.

Let Gu Tingxiao listen to Helian Min tell fairy tales?

The dignified CEO Gu would never... Well, in order not to miss any time with his precious An'an, Gu Tingxiao chose to stay.

"Brother, bunny~"

Xiao Anman, who is addicted to listening to stories, still remembers the important characters in the story she heard last time.

"good."

Helian Min opened the storybook and turned to the second half of the story she had told last time.

The boy's voice was captivating; the moment he opened his mouth, it had the power to charm.

His index finger landed where the story continues.

"...The little rabbit, who hadn't eaten all day, looked at Mr. Wolf with a pitiful expression and said, 'I want to eat sweet egg soup.'"

"What kind of family do you live in? Why don't you eat stewed pork ribs with carrots?"

I got yelled at, sob sob sob.

The little rabbit smacked its lips, stopped talking, and just stared with its feverish, red eyes, which were already quite red to begin with.

After a while, I got tired and felt drowsy.

After a while, the little rabbit's ear was poked, and a dry, angry voice said, "Get up and eat."

The little rabbit, still dazed from the fever, sat up and rubbed its eyes with its fluffy paws.

A large bowl appeared in front of it.

It's inside.

One, two, three, four...

So many sweet egg soups..."

...The storybook plots these days...are quite down-to-earth.

For Mr. Gu, who usually only listens to stories without really taking them to heart, this was the first time he had ever listened to a story from the audience's perspective.

I have to say, it's a pretty strange feeling.

The boy telling the story had a gentle voice and a soft expression, making the simple story vivid and evocative.

Little foodie An'an lay between her father and brother, carefully swallowing a small mouthful of saliva.

What is sweet egg soup?

It sounds delicious!
