The chubby little girl in a pink dress was chasing Yan Nuoxing around the courtyard.
A man stood outside and silently wished he could rush over and snatch the cute little lass away.
F*ck. Why did he always use the word 'snatch'?
She was his daughter, for goodness' sake. Why did he need to snatch her over?
"Brother… Brother…"
Suddenly, the little fellows neared the courtyard gate. Yan Nuoxing was leading the pack, and Su Xiaojiao was lagging far behind.
It was such a heartwarming sight, yet it made his heart heavy.
Seeing that the little lass was almost nearing him, Ming Ansheng looked around and ensured that there was no one. He called, "Xiaojiao."
Su Xiaojiao heard someone calling her and stopped in her tracks. She looked outside the courtyard gate.
When she saw Ming Ansheng sticking his head through the gate, she happily smiled and her eyes crinkled.
It melted his heart.
