Little Star stared blankly at the bathtub filled with water in front of him. The edge of the tub was almost up to his chin, and hot steam was rising from it. The damp vapor hit him and enveloped him.

He used to bathe with Yu Yu, and they could help each other, or their mother would take them to bathe together. But how could he bathe by himself?

And this bathtub is so tall!

The little star looked around and finally fixed its gaze on the toilet seat.

So he struggled to climb onto the toilet seat and then tried to use the toilet to climb into the bathtub.

Who knew that the steam in the bathroom was so heavy that everything was covered with a thin layer of water droplets, and Little Star suddenly slipped and fell headfirst into the bathtub.

Then there was a loud "plop," and water splashed everywhere, leaving water stains all over the ground.

"Help!"

"Gurgle gurgle—"

The little star was splashing around in the water.

...

Pei Fengzhi was sitting in the room with a computer in front of him, and the screen showed the latest trending topics.

The fact that Ye Ningwan was the one who hit Ye Ruoxin has been revealed online.

Naturally, Ye Ruoxin must have been behind this.

There is now an overwhelming wave of insults and abuse directed at Ye Ningwan online. Some people have even started a sit-in protest outside the Municipal Public Security Bureau, holding banners, in an effort to pressure the public security, procuratorate, and judicial authorities to severely punish Ye Ningwan.

Pei Fengzhi stood up, poured himself some wine, and felt a surge of irritation.

However, Pei Fengzhi knew very well that his irritability was not only because of Ye Ningwan, but also because of Xiaoxing, who was taking a bath in the bathroom at the moment.

He could have just found a guest room for the little guy to stay in, even though there were so many rooms in the house. But in the end, he brought the little guy back to his bedroom.

All of this seemed to be his subconscious actions, with his actions always preceding his thoughts.

Although she didn't remember much of the past, Pei Feng subconsciously felt that she wasn't the kind of person who would bring a complete stranger home and let him share a room with her.

But why did he feel that the child was so familiar, as if he had once had such a child himself?

Or perhaps... Thinking of this, Pei Fengzhi suddenly gripped the wine glass in his hand tightly.

Could it be that someone deliberately arranged for this child to lower my guard so that they could get something out of me?

Otherwise, he would be unable to explain these repeated coincidences.

Why do the little stars keep appearing in the same place as me, and why do they always seem to appear so abruptly?

Especially this time!

He wouldn't believe it unless someone had deliberately arranged it, that a child would appear in the parking lot of a secluded suburban club in the middle of the night!

As Pei Fengzhi was thinking this, the next second he heard Xiao Xingxing's sharp scream coming from the bathroom.

"Help!"

Without a second thought, Pei Fengzhi put down his wine glass and rushed into the bathroom.

"Little Star!"

Pushing open the door, you're immediately hit by thick, humid steam; the concentration of steam in the bathroom is almost suffocating.

Pei Fengzhi frowned. He turned on the ventilation system and stepped barefoot into the bathroom. He saw Xiao Xingxing soaking in the bathtub, splashing around, with water stains scattered all over the floor.

"Uncle...help...uncle..."

Little Star stretched out his hands and splashed around in the bathtub.

Pei Fengzhi bent down and scooped Xiao Xingxing out of the bathtub.

Little Star clung tightly to Pei Fengzhi's arm with both hands, her whole body soaking wet and sticking to him. She gasped for breath, coughed violently, and trembled constantly, like a wet, drenched kitten.

"Cough cough cough... Waaah... Uncle..."

The little star cried and hiccuped pitifully, crying uncontrollably.

Pei Fengzhi's face was dark as he stared speechlessly at Xiao Xingxing, who had crawled into his arms while clinging to his arm.

Little Star's entire face was covered in water, her eyes were red, and large tears were falling down in a pitiful patter. She kept hiccuping.

"Handsome uncle... I thought I was going to die... Waaaaah..."

Pei Fengzhi actually disliked children, but he had a special feeling for Xiaoxing.

He looked down at his wet shirt and pants, and finally resigned himself to sitting down on the edge of the bathtub, gently patting Little Star's back.

"Don't be afraid, you're alright."

After a while, Little Star finally calmed down, but her hands were still tightly gripping Pei Fengzhi's clothes, and she sobbed.

"Handsome uncle, how about you take a bath with me?"

Pei Fengzhi hesitated for a while, but in the end, he still did not agree.

"I can stay by your side and make sure you don't drown."

Little Star thought for a moment, puffed out her cheeks, and nodded with a wronged expression.

"Oh well……"

Pei Fengzhi picked up Xiao Xingxing and put him in the bathtub, then handed him a new towel.

Little Xingxing grabbed the towel and obediently dried herself off. Pei Fengzhi didn't stare at Little Xingxing for too long. After all, staring at a child who wasn't related to him by blood, even if the child was only a few years old, would seem like a pervert.

Pei Fengzhi sat on the edge of the bathtub, with his back to Xiaoxingxing, looking down at his phone.

Little Star wanted to use a towel to wipe her back, but after struggling for a long time, she still couldn't reach her back because her arms were too short. She slipped and almost fell into the bathtub again.

This time, the little guy was smarter. He grabbed the stainless steel railing on the edge of the bathtub and used the buoyancy to stand up.

He raised his wet little head and looked at Pei Fengzhi, who was sitting on the edge of the bathtub with his back to him. Curious, he leaned over the edge of the bathtub and quietly peeked over.

"Handsome uncle, what are you looking at?"

Before Pei Fengzhi could answer, Xiao Xingxing had already seen Pei Fengzhi's phone screen.

The comments above are filled with all sorts of insults and abuse. Some people are even dragging their families into the mess, while others are cursing. They use whatever is filthy. When their accounts are banned, they create hundreds of new accounts to log in in turn. It's a complete mess.

Little Star glanced at him and angrily clenched her little fists, raised her wet little head, and stared at Pei Fengzhi with her round, dark eyes.

Are all these people insulting the auntie?

"Why are they yelling at Auntie? Auntie is a good person, Uncle, aren't you angry at all?"

"If it were me, I definitely wouldn't let these people get away with it!"

Little Star's face turned bright red with anger, even the corners of her eyes and cheekbones, where she had just cried, were red, as if she was really feeling wronged for Ye Ningwan and was extremely angry.

But Pei Fengzhi stared intently at Xiao Xingxing's little face and asked the first question with a heart full of doubt.

"You understood all those words at a glance and memorized them?"

Little Star suddenly froze.
