Chapter 6 : Dongdong is Discovered

  • Looking at the small figure of Youyou, Jiyou couldn't help but step forward and hug him, but he was quickly rejected by Youyou: "Mom, stop messing around. You're going to wrinkle Youyou's clothes..."
  • Being rejected by his precious children multiple times, Jiyou couldn't help but feel a bit aggrieved. He blinked his eyes pitifully and said, "Youyou, can't Mommy hold you anymore? Am I not important to Youyou anymore?"
  • Youyou hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, then reached out his tender little hand and lightly embraced Jiyou, but quickly let go and said, "Mommy, be good. Wait until Youyou finishes performing..."
  • While speaking, Youyou glanced sneakily behind Jiyou and, not seeing the familiar figure he was hoping for, he became disappointed and lowered his gaze, asking, "Uncle Dongli, isn't coming?"
  • Rubbing his thoughtful head, Jiyou said, "Uncle Dongli has something to do, but he said he will call Youyou tonight and watch your performance on TV~"
  • "Really?" Youyou's eyes lit up as she heard this, and even her little face became rosy.
  • As they were talking, they heard the announcer's voice outside saying, "Next, please enjoy the performance of the Moonlight Children's Chorus and the Magnolia Drama Club - 'Fairy Tale Town'."
  • Leaving the backstage with Jijin, ZaiZai, and Dongdong, Jiyou looked at the radiant Nannan and Youyou on stage and smiled, but there was a hint of heaviness in the corners of his mouth.
  • This time, coming back to the East District, he wasn't just looking for the man from that year. What was more important was to find out the truth about his father!
  • Five years ago, his father was in good health, so how did he suddenly become critically ill that day? And those photos, who gave them to his father? He didn't even know the man in the photos, so how did he mysteriously appear there? And that inexplicable car accident, and the smile on Jilan's face...
  • After the car accident, he was saved by Gudongli and lived in Nanwan for three years. He had been benefiting from the Gu family, and he feared that he would never be able to repay Gudongli's kindness to him and his precious children in this lifetime...
  • Lost in his thoughts, Jiyou suddenly felt someone tugging at his clothes. He lowered his head and saw Dongdong pulling at his clothes, pointing upstairs and saying, "Sister, sister..."
  • Jiyou looked up and saw Nannan gently reciting lines on stage. A gentle smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
  • One thing Jiyou would never regret in his life was leaving behind these seven adorable children.
  • He just didn't know what kind of magical power that man from that year possessed, to make him suddenly have seven little treasures...
  • Thinking of that absurd night, Jiyou couldn't help but blush.
  • Meanwhile, while Jiyou was enjoying the children's performance, Huo Ciyi was already standing in the CEO's office on the top floor of Hengshui Building.
  • The silent smoke dissipated slowly along with the soothing piano music. Huo Ciyi listened to his assistant's report while lowering his head and sneering.
  • The once powerful Huo family in the business world was now being tossed around like an old man by his second uncle and a few uncles. Although it looked glamorous on the outside, it was rotten inside, like it had been eaten away by worms.
  • If it weren't for the earnest plea of his grandfather, Huo Ciyi could have just watched the Huo family completely wither and decline. After all, he was just an abandoned child expelled by the Huo family. But...
  • Feeling a bit weary, Huo Ciyi furrowed his brows and waved his hand, dismissing his assistant Li Jingshi, saying, "Alright, I understand. You can go now..."
  • Li Jingshi closed the file in his hand, glanced at Huo Ciyi, respectfully bowed, and then retreated.
  • Huo Ciyi leaned back on the sofa, casually reaching out to the side, accidentally touching the remote control on the sofa. With a "click" sound, the TV that occupied half of the wall slowly turned on.
  • As it turned, a slightly childish yet clearly beautiful face appeared before Huo Ciyi's eyes - a face that resembled the girl from his memories by about seventy to eighty percent. Huo Ciyi's eyes widened in astonishment, his tired gaze suddenly fixated on that face.
  • Who is she?
  • Could it be that she is her child?!
