The little star tilted its soft little head and asked curiously.
"Handsome uncle, what are you doing here?"
Pei Fengzhi picked him up.
"Let's talk about work. What about you? Why are you out here alone again? Doesn't your mom worry?"
As Pei Fengzhi spoke, he couldn't help but furrow his brow again.
What's wrong with this child's mother? How could she be so careless as to leave her child lying around? If something happens, it will be too late to regret it.
Hearing Pei Fengzhi's words, which carried a hint of dissatisfaction with her mother, Little Star's soft little face immediately scrunched up, and she pouted and whimpered as she struggled out of Pei Fengzhi's arms.
"My mommy doesn't not care about me! She's just always busy making money. After all, raising me is super expensive. My mommy does all this for my sake!"
Pei Fengzhi's arms suddenly felt empty, and Little Star slid off his arms and jumped to the ground.
Pei Fengzhi looked down at the little guy in front of her, his hands on his hips, his face scrunched up in anger, fiercely defending his mother even in front of someone much older than himself.
Pei Fengzhi's gaze couldn't help but soften.
He softened his tone and apologized to Little Star in a low voice.
"Uncle shouldn't have said that. Please don't be angry, okay?"
Little Star gave a soft hum, and after a long while, she raised her head, hesitated, and slowly nodded, speaking earnestly to Pei Fengzhi.
"I forgive you, but you're not allowed to say anything bad about my mommy again!"
Pei Fengzhi nodded.
Little Star stretched out her little finger and gently hooked it with Pei Fengzhi's little finger. Their fingers were intertwined, and they swayed gently.
Little Star's sweet, childlike voice rang out near the parking lot.
"Pinky promise, never to change it for a hundred years, whoever changes it is a little puppy!"
After saying that, he grasped Pei Fengzhi's thumb and stamped it with his own thumb.
After doing all this, Little Star finally raised her little face and looked at Pei Fengzhi with a smile.
"Okay! If you don't keep your promise, handsome uncle will turn into dog uncle!"
Pei Fengzhi couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xiao Xingxing with her tender little face and incredibly childish voice saying such things.
"good."
The driver sitting in the car was completely stunned.
What did he see?
The usually cold and aloof Ninth Master was surprisingly on good terms with a little kid, even apologizing to him and making so many unreasonable demands on the child without any regard for his nonsense.
In that instant, all sorts of romantic entanglements and grudges among the wealthy flooded the driver's mind, and even the way he looked at Little Star seemed a little off.
Could this be Ninth Master's illegitimate child?
The driver had already started imagining a story of a body double running away with the baby, returning five years later with the child, and Ninth Master chasing after his wife in a heart-wrenching, tragic love story within a wealthy family.
Just then, the car door was suddenly opened.
Pei Fengzhi carried Xiao Xingxing into the car.
Little Star kicked her little legs a few times and spoke earnestly to Pei Fengzhi.
"Handsome uncle, you don't need to carry me all the time. Little Star can walk by herself! Mommy said that you have to do things yourself!"
Pei Fengzhi was both amused and exasperated by Xiao Xingxing's serious expression. He reached out and lifted the little guy to the seat next to him, then sat down himself.
"Okay, but can I take you home now? It's bedtime for the kids."
Little Star pondered seriously for a long time, neither nodding nor shaking his head immediately.
After all, if he shook his head, Pei Fengzhi would definitely send him to the club to find his mother, given his personality.
Wouldn't that expose his true intentions? He wasn't actually looking for his mother who works here.
But if he brings Pei Fengzhi home, that would be even worse.
Tang Ruanruan didn't even know that he had secretly gone out. Given Aunt Ruanruan's intelligence, she couldn't possibly cooperate with her, and she would only expose him later.
Uncle Shuai will definitely know that Aunt Ruan Ruan is not his mother, which means that he was lying to him that day, and he will be even more unable to explain what his relationship with Ye Ningwan is.
That will only cause more trouble for Mommy.
Then, Little Star's eyes darted around, and she suddenly jumped into Pei Fengzhi's arms, asking in a coquettish tone.
"Handsome uncle, can I go home with you? My mommy has to work the night shift and won't get off work until noon tomorrow. There's no one at home right now, and Little Star is scared."
As Little Star spoke, she raised her soft little face, her wet cat eyes looking pitifully at Pei Fengzhi, truly resembling a kitten abandoned at birth, both frightened and insecure.
Looking into those eyes, Pei Fengzhi couldn't help but think of Ye Ningwan, who was still being held in the police station at this very moment.
Ye Ningwan is also alone in that cramped and cold little room tonight. I wonder if she will be scared or feel cold.
He couldn't help but worry, and his brows furrowed.
Little Star looked at Pei Fengzhi's gloomy expression, carefully climbed off Pei Fengzhi, and said pitifully in a low voice.
"I seem to have forgotten that you have an aunt at home, handsome uncle. Does your aunt not like me? If she sees me, will she misunderstand that we have something else going on?"
Pei Fengzhi quickly came to his senses and stared at Little Star in surprise.
Ye Ningwan really didn't like Xiaoxing. He was very unhappy when he saw Xiaoxing last time, and he promised that he would never see Xiaoxing again.
