I'm your father…
These words reverberated in her ear and the little girl froze, staring at him in shock.
After a few seconds, Mu Mu's beautiful eyes turned red and fat tears fell from her eyes. Her hands balled into fists and she rubbed her tears away.
Xuan Ying was flustered. He knew that he had no right to want Mu Mu to call him 'Daddy', but he had still told her the truth anyway. After all, he was her father.
But he had never thought that he would make Mu Mu cry.
With no idea what he could say to his daughter, Xuan Ying's hands could only flail frantically. He wiped the tears from Mu Mu's face and spoke in a gentle voice, "Mu Mu, it's all Daddy's fault… Daddy hasn't taken good care of you and your Mommy… but Daddy loves the both of you… a lot…"
Mu Mu sobbed before raising her arms to hug Xuan Ying's neck. "Daddy…"
Daddy!
Mu Mu called him Daddy!
