Chapter 2
Several years ago, Kan Qi, who was an extra, found the process of waiting for his role every day really unbearable, so he just picked a cultivation game to pass the time. He didn't understand the little girl's preferences, so when he saw the system's matching tasks, the clothes he chose were almost all the most basic styles of white skirts and black leather shoes. When the girl was five years old, the game went bankrupt and was not updated again, and finally it could not be opened.
In addition, as my work gradually increased and I changed my phone, I put this matter behind me.
The child he raised was called... Fusheng.
Her name was automatically generated by the system. She has beautiful glass-colored eyes and is always happy when she wears the little white dress he bought her.
Kan Qi's eyes fell on the child's thin white skirt.
The child in front of him was also called Fusheng, and it even matched the system panel data in his mind.
He frowned, but before he could say anything, the child's eyes suddenly widened and he took a few steps back: "No."
Kan Qi looked at her quietly.
Xiao Fusheng had retreated behind the police aunt. Although the handsome uncle looked the same as the one on TV, his voice was nothing like his father. He was not her father. She only recognized his voice and not his appearance.
Everyone was confused by this scene. Sometimes it was yes and sometimes it wasn’t. What did the child mean?
Looking back at Kan Qi, he slowly straightened up, maintaining his previous expression and looking at the child calmly.
"Why not?" the policewoman asked. "What's the difference?"
Xiao Fusheng pointed to his throat: "Dad, speak, not like this."
At this moment, Chen Huan suddenly felt that these two people might really have some relationship, at least there was something wrong with the way they spoke.
She said to Kan Qi, "Maybe the child made a mistake."
Kan Qi didn't move, but his eyes slowly moved upwards, meeting the child's glazed eyes. After a few seconds, he took out his phone and typed a few words on the memo. He turned the screen to face the child and spoke softly, emphasizing each word: "Floating, life?"
Xiao Fusheng stuck his head out and nodded cautiously after seeing his name on the phone.
Chen Huan was frightened: "Do you really know him?!"
Don’t let it be the bad debt left by this person before he entered the circle. If it is said that he was deliberately slandered by people who hired internet trolls, then his career is really over now.
Kan Qi didn't answer, but he felt that the world was absurd.
The child in the game traveled to the real world, and there was an inexplicable system that required him to continue to support it.
I also feel ridiculous that I came here for no apparent reason. Regardless of whether it is true or not, raising a paper man is different from raising a living person.
He himself is still in darkness and cannot even keep a flower alive.
After looking at the child behind the police, Kan Qi moved his fingertips slightly, matching the person with the image in the game in his memory, and the match was almost 100%.
After a moment, he shook his head lightly, retracted his gaze, put on the mask again, lowered the brim of his hat, sat on the sofa and said nothing more.
The child sitting opposite Yu Guangzhong also fell silent.
Now both the child and the person involved denied knowing each other, and the police had no choice but to send the two out of the police station after communicating with the agent.
After getting in the car, Chen Huan sighed: "The little sister is really beautiful, it's a pity."
【Life Points: 3%.】
The two voices merged together, and Kan Qi glanced at the rearview mirror.
The child was smaller and thinner than his five-year-old peers. He stood at the door wrapped in a loose police uniform, his thin legs exposed to the cold wind, his eyes empty, like an abandoned kitten.
"She said she might have some intellectual issues. She says she doesn't know anything and has difficulty speaking. She also said she used to live in a castle. It was only after seeing you on TV that she pointed at you and called you dad." Chen Huan turned her head to look at him. "Why did she say her voice didn't look like you when we met? Does she recognize people by their voices?"
"Think about it carefully, have you really done anything wrong?"
Kan Qi ignored her wild imagination.
But I know why the child is obsessed with the sound, because there is only a voice bar in the game, and my voice now is indeed not the same as before.
Chen Huan started the car. "But if no one comes to claim her, the police will send her to an orphanage. I don't know if her brain can be cured in the future."
【Life Points: 2%.】
The car slowly drove out of the police station. The child in the rearview mirror was still standing there, not knowing what he was waiting for.
Kan Qi forced himself to look away and leaned back in the car seat. The brim of his hat had been pulled down to the point where it could no longer block his view.
[Life Points…]
The car had already turned the corner and the police station gate was no longer in sight. A hoarse voice suddenly rang out from the quiet car: "Stop."
Chen Huan stepped on the brakes: "What..."
Before he could finish his words, Kan Qi had already opened the car door and got out, apparently going back to the police station.
At this time, Xiao Fusheng was still standing outside the police station gate. The TV was playing safety knowledge in a loop during the day, and she could no longer hear the familiar voice.
She looked at the car outside with a dazed mind, confused and helpless, waiting for her fate to come.
Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in my sight. The uncle was wearing very long clothes and was dressed in black.
Seeing the man turning the corner and walking towards her, Xiao Fusheng widened her eyes slightly. Although the voice and personality were different, the uncle did look exactly like the father on TV, so she was always subconsciously nervous.
Kan Qi walked slowly but steadily until he stood in front of the child.
Xiao Fusheng subconsciously looked up. The drizzle outside had become heavier without him noticing, and a layer of fine water droplets condensed on the brim of his uncle's hat.
But his eyes didn't look cold.
He raised his hand.
Xiao Fusheng saw the words typed on the memo on his phone.
First line: "Kan Qi."
Second line: "Follow me?"
Xiao Fusheng's hands tightly grasped the corner of his clothes.
"Kan Qi, what are you doing?!" Chen Huan caught up from behind and his breath stopped when he saw this scene. "The child might not even be able to read."
How could he not be able to read? You know it yourself since you raised him. He can read at the age of one and compose poems at the age of two. He is the smartest child.
Kan Qi's eyes were cold and hard. He was waiting for an answer, three seconds. If the child didn't want to, he wouldn't come back.
One, two...
The child nodded slightly.
An hour later, Chen Huan turned his head to look at the little girl wearing Kan Qi's down jacket in the back seat. He didn't understand why this man went crazy and actually took a child back home, but when he thought about it, he realized that Kan Qi hadn't done anything crazy since he retired from the entertainment industry.
He was only 28 years old, but he gave up his bright future and almost tortured himself into a lunatic.
She said: "I have already communicated with the police. If the child's parents come looking for her, she will still go back."
Kan Qi nodded.
He was very annoyed, and he didn't really want to raise a child, but at least... at least he had to survive, with life points reaching 20%.
On the way, Chen Huan drove to the mall. Since Kan Qi was not available, she took the children to buy some spare clothes and daily necessities.
Xiao Fusheng once again witnessed the novelty and liveliness of this world. It turned out that this was the true appearance of the world implanted in his mind.
So, have my parents always lived here? Will I be able to find them in the future?
She remembered the voice on TV last night, pursed her lips and gently pulled the person next to her: "Auntie."
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Fusheng spoke haltingly: "Why, on TV, uncle's voice is different."
"This..." Chen Huan hesitated.
Kan Qi's past works all used original sound, and there was no dubbing.
But she couldn't casually tell a child she just met about Kan Qi's situation, so she just said, "Uncle Kan Qi has had a sore throat recently, so he doesn't talk much. He'll be fine once his throat gets better."
Xiao Fusheng was stunned, so Uncle Kan Qi is indeed his father?
Back at Kan Qi's house, Chen Huan asked his assistant Xiao An to take Xiao Fusheng to the guest room upstairs, and then called out to Kan Qi who was about to leave: "We are not staying here with you tonight. You brought him back, you can't let us take care of him for you."
Kan Qi paused slightly.
Seeing this, Chen Huan knew that he understood what he meant: "You decide what to do."
In fact, she had her own plans for agreeing so easily to let Kan Qi bring the person back.
Kan Qi has refused to communicate with the outside world in the past two years, and even the psychologists were helpless. Today, after seeing Xiao Fusheng not only speak, but also take the initiative to bring him back, she naturally had to seize the opportunity.
He is only 28 years old and was once the youngest actor in the industry. His bright future cannot be wasted like this.
-
After taking a bath, Xiao Fusheng changed into new clothes. They were different from the princess dresses in her wardrobe before, but they were very comfortable and warm.
It’s great that in this world I can actually experience those physical sensations that my teachers have talked about.
She looked around curiously. It turned out that this was her father's home. Why was it not as big as the castle?
But the bed was not as uncomfortable as the one in the police station, it was very soft.
Xiao Fusheng lay in bed recalling what had happened. His confused thoughts were difficult to sort out and he could only roughly understand a little bit.
Her castle world disappeared, and she seemed to have become a real person and came to her parents' world, but they did not seem like the parents she was familiar with.
Thinking of her father, she sat up again.
With medical knowledge implanted in her mind, she is determined to cure her father!
At this time, her stomach growled again. Xiao Fusheng lay on the bed, touching her belly, feeling very distressed.
It turns out that people need to eat.
Since his parents and servants disappeared, there was no food in the castle, so little Fusheng gradually forgot the need to eat.
She had boxed lunches at the police station in the morning and at noon. She wondered if there was any food at Kan Qi’s father’s house?
Kan Qi, who was separated from her by a wall, was lost in thought as he looked at the prompts on the raising-a-baby calendar panel.
[Zizi's stomach is rumbling. She must be hungry. What should I give her to eat?]
【Life points 2%.】
“…”
The price that had just risen fell back down again.
Kan Qi walked out of the room and looked around. The child's head just happened to be at the door. When he saw him, his eyes suddenly lit up and he rushed over like a little cannonball: "Dad!"
Kan Qi held her head against his, lowering his eyes: "Uncle, uncle."
"What?"
"Call me, uncle."
Xiao Fusheng's bright eyes suddenly dimmed several degrees, and his lips pursed slightly: "Uncle, uncle."
【Zizi seems a little unhappy, why is that? 】
Kan Qi had a blank expression on his face. Why else could it be?
I'm not her real father.
He chose to ignore it, but he always wanted to keep people alive.
Every day Chen Huan would come home with his assistant to prepare some daily necessities, after all, he didn't go out.
Kan Qi hasn't cooked since he got busy with work. When he took out vegetables and meat from the refrigerator, he was actually in a trance for a moment.
The last time he cooked was when he was an extra in that cramped little rental house. Even so, he could still save enough money to buy a little skirt for his baby in the game.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and glanced at his side.
The child, who was not even as tall as his waist, blinked his big eyes and looked at him, like a follower, following him wherever he went. When he looked at him, he smiled with his eyes squinted.
In fact, Xiao Fusheng not only has a low survival point, but also a low living point. She looked at her father's actions curiously: "What are you doing?"
Kan Qi didn't say anything.
He had already spoken too much today; he hadn't opened his mouth in two years.
But the child didn't seem to care. He still watched his movements with great interest and exclaimed in surprise from time to time.
I should have taught her cooking skills before, but at that time I thought little girls shouldn't go into the kitchen, so now the child can't tell the difference between grains.
Soon, Kan Qi made a bowl of noodles with meat sauce and handed it to her.
Xiao Fusheng tilted her head. She had seen this finished product before: "Noodles!"
It turns out that Dad cooked for himself!
【After eating Daddy’s meal, the baby was very happy.】
Xiao Fusheng didn't eat it immediately, but stretched out his arm in front of Kan Qi's father: "Dad...Uncle, eat!"
Kan Qi pushed the noodles back again.
He has never had much of an appetite and usually only eats once a day.
"If I don't eat, I'll be hungry." Xiao Fusheng touched his stomach, "I'll feel uncomfortable and sick."
Dad is still sick.
Little Fusheng was not discouraged by not getting a response. She felt she had an obligation to heal her father, so she pouted and said, "Uncle, uncle, blow it."
After blowing a few times, she raised her head and said, "Okay, eat."
Kan Qi moved his fingers slightly.
For a moment, I actually felt like I was actually a little hungry.
Seeing the child's expression of "I won't eat it if you don't eat it", Kan Qi had to go to the kitchen and cook a bowl for himself for her precarious life.
The two, one big and one small, were eating in silence when they heard the sound of a combination lock being opened at the door.
"I forgot the kids need to eat. There's nothing that shady Kan Qi can do. You go..." The speakerphone came in. Xiao An, who was on the phone, saw the scene on the dining table and quickly hung up: "Well, the boss is eating?"
It’s not even takeaway!
Kan Qi looked at him coldly.
Xiao An immediately slipped to the second floor and found something to do. He took down the medicine that the boss wanted to take and poured him some water. Then, as if thinking of something, he said, "Boss, I see that all the flowers in the garden are dead. Do you want someone to clean them up?"
Kan Qi swallowed the medicine without changing his expression, and the water cup made a slight sound when placed on the table.
Xiao An immediately understood and quickly cleared the dishes on the table and went to the kitchen: "I'll wash them!"
【The baby is full and a little sleepy. 】
Kan Qi leaned back in his chair and saw that the child in front of him really yawned.
He unlocked his phone, tapped on it a few times, and pushed it in front of the child: "Go to bed if you're sleepy."
So this is what it means to be sleepy?
Xiao Fusheng suddenly unlocked a new skill in life. She jumped down from the table and said, "Well, uncle, what about you?"
Uncle is a human being, doesn’t he sleep?
But Kan Qi misunderstood her meaning and typed with a frown: "Can't you sleep by yourself?"
He has no experience in raising children. How do children of this age usually sleep?
No, no matter how she sleeps, it has nothing to do with me. After all, I will never sleep with a child.
He was thinking about how to tell the child, but unexpectedly the child shook his head.
"I can." Xiao Fusheng said firmly, "I can sleep by myself."
Don’t other people sleep alone?
She always sleeps alone in the castle.
Kan Qi was a little surprised. The child seemed stronger than she had imagined, but she also breathed a sigh of relief and typed, "Let the uncle who washes the dishes take you to bed."
After saying that, he got up and went upstairs. He had spent too much time on the children today, which made him a little overwhelmed.
When Xiao An came out and found out that the boss had dumped the child on him, he was speechless: "He is just like that, don't bother with him."
Xiao Fusheng didn't quite understand.
"But Uncle Kan Qi doesn't like to eat." Xiao An had just secretly called Sister Huan in the kitchen. Remembering her advice, she began to hint to the child, "Skipping meals is unhealthy, so Xiao Fusheng, can you supervise Uncle and make him eat on time with you from now on?"
Dad doesn’t like to eat even though he’s sick?
Xiao Fusheng nodded seriously: "Okay!"
"So good." Xiao An took him upstairs. When he saw the garden outside the French window halfway up, he muttered, "You don't take care of the garden, but just stare at the dead branches all day. What's so good about it?"
Xiao Fusheng also followed his gaze and saw that the garden under the courtyard lights was in a dilapidated state, in stark contrast to the flowers that were always blooming in her castle.
It turns out that dad likes to grow flowers?
After returning to her room and lying on the bed, she vaguely thought that she could also plant a garden of flowers for her father.

Late at night, Kan Qi was sitting on the balcony, a movie was playing on the tablet in front of him, but he didn't make any sound, and the tablet screen was covered by dense barrage of comments.
[It's so funny, a self-proclaimed genius actor, but the film he produced is nothing but a pile of crap? ]
[Is he really that short of money that he's willing to take on any script? Who would want to watch this movie?]
[Come check in and see what kind of bad movies the youngest movie actor in history made. ]
[It's good to quit the circle, give more opportunities to newcomers, don't waste resources. ]
Kan Qi memorized the comments one by one in his mind, and even when his fingertips dug deep into his palms, he didn't feel any pain.
He couldn't tell whether it was numbness or heartbreak.
The people who once wanted to hold him in their hearts have now become sharp swords, cutting him open again and again, bloody and endless.
At this moment, the exclamation mark flashed before his eyes and diverted his attention.
【Life Points 1%!!!】
【My baby is sick and feels very uncomfortable.】
Kan Qi frowned, stood up and walked to the child's door. Listening carefully, he could indeed hear soft crying sounds coming from inside.
He knocked on the door three times, but there was no response, so he had to knock louder.
The crying seemed to stop, and after a few seconds the door opened from the inside.
The child's eyes were wet and lifeless, with beads of sweat on his forehead. He looked like he had just been pulled out of the water. His voice was weak and hoarse: "Dad?"
Kan Qi raised his hand and touched her forehead, which was very hot. He took out the thermometer and measured her temperature, which was already 40℃.
He immediately picked her up and walked towards the garage. After getting in the car, he quickly sent a message to Chen Huan: "She has a fever."
Then I called the other party.
Chen Huan also knew him very well. After receiving the call, he immediately went to check the message and sat up from the bed: "I'll be right there!"
Kan Qi: "Go to the hospital."
Chen Huan's home is far from here, and it will take some time to get here.
Seeing her anxious and frantic, Chen Huan's husband consoled her, "Don't worry. Can't he, a grown man, solve this problem?"
"She's still a little girl after all, and you know Kan Qi, she hasn't been out of the house or interacted with anyone in two years." Chen Huan was stunned when he said this, "Yeah, then if he goes to the hospital first, what will he tell the doctor later?"
Thinking of the scene where the gloomy man ignored the doctor, Chen Huan felt dizzy in front of his eyes.
