Chapter 419: 419 (third watch of the night)

The sight was terrifying, and the little loli staggered backward two steps before turning around and running out the door barefoot. Bread, sleeping on the ground floor, felt his little master’s unease and hastily opened his eyes, whimpering and dashing out, disappearing into the night.

Mo Qianjue’s steps were unsteady as he left the children’s room, but he did not go after the little loli. Instead, he turned into the study next door, his expression filled with sorrow.

Everything seemed to return to calm.

Only, the lamp in the study remained lit throughout the night.

Bread quickly caught up with the little loli, first licking her small hand, then her cheek, silently comforting her.

The night was very quiet, and very dark; no one knew what dangers hid beneath its cloak.

Looking out at the endless night, the little loli felt both wronged and afraid, tears flowing even more fiercely. She didn’t even know what she had done wrong for daddy to treat her this way.

The little loli felt an inexplicable panic and hugged Bread’s neck, crying out loud.

If mommy didn’t want her, would the only daddy she had not want her either?

After all, she was only a 6-year-old child.

Faced with such an ordeal, aside from crying, it seemed there was no other outlet for her feelings.

Bread let out low whimpers, constantly nuzzling her head.

By the time the little loli arrived at Huagui Park, it was already past 1 a.m.

Luckily, Chu Jin’s senses were exceptional. Bread had only barked twice downstairs before she awoke from her sleep, turned on the bedside lamp, and hurried downstairs.

Downstairs, Bread was carrying the little loli, standing there pitifully. Seeing Chu Jin, Bread immediately barked loudly, wagging his tail at her as if he saw a savior.

"Why are you out so late, not sleeping at home, bringing Pengpeng here?" Chu Jin bent down to pet Bread’s head.

Bread whimpered a few times, his head drooping and expression utterly despondent.

Chu Jin did not expect Bread to say anything. She glanced at the sleeping little loli, then bent down to cradle her in her arms, only then noticing the wet tear tracks on the child’s face and the slight swelling around her red eyes, clearly having cried.

The little loli’s hands clung tightly to Chu Jin’s sleepwear, murmuring in her dream, "Daddy, Pengpeng will be really good, really obedient, please don’t leave me..."

"Daddy, I want candied haws."

"I want Big Brother Jin to be my mommy."

"Daddy, didn’t you like the hat Pengpeng made for you?"

"..."

Seeing her like this, Chu Jin sighed softly, vaguely understanding something.

She took the little loli upstairs, with Bread following behind her.

Perhaps worn out from crying earlier, the little loli was sleeping deeply, so much so that even giving her a bath did not wake her.

After bathing her, Chu Jin found a set of pajamas to change her into, and then gently placed her on the bed.

After a moment’s thought, Chu Jin picked up the little loli’s cell phone and found the number saved under "Daddy" to send him a text.

It was so late, and with the little loli having run off in a huff, her father must be worried.

After taking care of these things, Chu Jin yawned, lay down on the bed, and went back to sleep.

The next day.

Chu Jin woke up early, perhaps because of the late-night disturbance, while the little loli was still sleeping soundly.

Today was the opening day of Yan Yuzhai.

It didn’t matter if she didn’t go to the opening of theking, but she had to visit Yan Yuzhai on its opening day.

Yan Yuzhai was an endeavor solely managed by Qin Zhenglin. She hadn’t visited it at all or taken any interest in many days; if it weren’t for Qin Zhenglin’s reminder, she would have completely forgotten that today was Yan Yuzhai’s opening.

The opening was set for 8 a.m. sharp.

It was already 6:30 a.m., and after dressing and grooming, Chu Jin deliberately chose a dress from her wardrobe to wear.
