"Hey? Mr. Fang Zheng..."

Looking at Fang Zheng in front of him, Fate widened his eyes in surprise, and for a moment he thought he was hallucinating.

However, the touch from above my head was familiar, and so was the person in front of me...

"Eh? Eh? But you're not——"

"I thought about it and decided to take some time to come over and see you. After all, it's your first birthday."

Fang Zheng was right in saying this, he did "take some time" to do so. Right now in the Underdark, it was Fang Zheng's turn to rest, so he went back to his room without hesitation. After thinking it over, Fang Zheng decided to come and see Fate.

So Fang Zheng directly used the "Unsealing Master" to open the door leading to the Tiandao Palace plane elevator, and then slipped over at the fastest speed.

To be on the safe side, Fang Zheng even used boson jumping... Well, he did learn some useful things in the mecha world.

"Where's Alicia? Is she asleep already?"

"Um."

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Fate nodded.

"Sister is already asleep..."

Although Alicia was nominally the older sister, her body was after all that of a little girl under ten years old. The birthday party was lively and Alicia had a lot of fun, so she was already exhausted by now and said good night and went to bed early.

"Well, that's the only way. I didn't bring any gifts this time..."

Fang Zheng touched his body and found that the only things he could give away were the reins of the Scorching Warhorse and the Headless Horseman... but these things didn't seem particularly suitable for Fate and the others.

If we could find a phoenix or a young dragon of the north wind, maybe there would be hope.

"I'll make it up next time..."

However, before Fang Zheng could finish his words, Fate suddenly threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

"No need...Mr. Fang Zheng. Your coming here is the best gift..."

"Really..."

Feeling the petite body of the girl in his arms, Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. Then he reached out and gently stroked Fate's long hair.

"How are you getting along with Preshia?"

"I get along with my mother... okay..."

In response to Fang Zheng's question, Fate gave an ambiguous answer, but this was also within Fang Zheng's expectations.

This is also Preshia's own fault.

Although with Alicia's resurrection, Preshia is gradually turning back into the gentle and kind mother, the relationship between her and Fate is still a little stiff. After learning that she is just a substitute for Alicia, Fate doesn't know how to face Preshia, and because Preshia completely isolated Fate before, she doesn't know how to get along with Fate now.

Fortunately, there was the cute Alicia who managed to bring the two of them back together. But now it seems that Fate is still closer to himself than to Preshia.

but……

Well, it's hard for a judge to judge family affairs, so Fang Zheng can only give suggestions on this matter.

"Well, it's late, it's almost time for you to go to bed."

"Um...Okay."

Although she wanted to stay with Fang Zheng for a while longer, Fate was a well-behaved and obedient girl. She also knew that Fang Zheng had taken time out to come and see her. She was already very satisfied that Fang Zheng had come to celebrate her birthday, and she would not continue to be willful.

"This cake...is for you, Mr. Fang Zheng."

"oh?"

Fang Zheng was a little surprised when he took the cake, but he still smiled and nodded to Fit, then stuffed the cake into his mouth.

"Mm, not bad, very delicious..."

"Well, can I make a small request?"

"What's up?"

"Mr. Fang Zheng, can you take me to the bedroom door?"

"Bedroom... okay."

Hearing Fate's request, Fang Zheng was slightly stunned, and then quickly nodded and agreed. He looked at Fate in front of him, and even felt a little distressed. After all, the little girl was too well-behaved and obedient. Even if she was a little willful, she only did this much.

"Then let us go."

"Um……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Fate shook the hand he extended, and the two of them turned and walked into the room.

Walk out of the balcony, through the living room, to the corridor, up the stairs to the second floor.

No matter how much Fate hoped to extend the journey, it only took a few minutes, and soon she arrived at the door of her bedroom.

"Okay, go to bed."

"Um……"

After opening the door, Fate hesitated for a moment, then she turned around and waved to Fang Zheng.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, I have something to tell you."

"Hmm? What's up?"

Hearing Fate's words, Fang Zheng bent down and looked at Fate. However, what Fang Zheng didn't expect was that at this moment, Fate suddenly reached out and hugged his neck, then she stood on tiptoes and kissed Fang Zheng gently on the mouth. Fang Zheng could even feel the fleeting tip of her tongue...

"You, there's cream on the corner of your mouth..."

Fate said this with a red face, then turned and went into the bedroom and closed the door. Fang Zheng stood there blankly, and after a while, he reached out his hand to touch the corner of his mouth, then shook his head with a helpless smile.

Fate has also learned to be naughty...

"ha……"

Leaning tightly against the bedroom door, Fate breathed softly. She could feel her heart beating so hard that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her chest.

Although she had done even more shameful things to Fang Zheng before, it was Xiao Hei's suggestion at that time, and Fate just accepted and executed it. But this time, she wanted to take the initiative...

Fate reached out her hand and placed it on her lips, gently touching it, savoring the touch just now. Behind her, there was no sound behind the door, obviously, Fang Zheng had left.

What would Mr. Fang Zheng think? Would he regard this as a child's mischief? Or...

Thinking of this, Fate shook her head, then she rushed to the bed as if trying to escape from something, and pulled up the quilt to cover herself.

“Woo…”

It's really shameful that I would do this... But... maybe... I can ask Xiao Hei...

That’s right, let’s do it!

After this idea appeared in her mind, Fate seemed to have found her goal. Then she closed her eyes peacefully and fell into a deep sleep.
