Chapter 190: Life Isn"t What You Wished For, Sangsang Is
This kid surely picked the right thing to rip.
She ripped the one he spent countless days and nights writing.
Mu Chen had already looked beyond death; he didn"t care that he was alive, and he didn"t care if he was dead.
But there just happened to be Ye Sang, the variable.
Mu Chen glared at the little thing who looked down at the floor and grinded his teeth.
He wanted to beat her up but he couldn"t bear to do it.
This contradicting feeling made Mu Chen"s unhappiness reach its peak.
Mu Chen closed his eyes and tapped his table with his long slim and cold fingers. He looked at her for a few seconds and his speechlessness was torture.
Even adults wouldn"t be able to stand the cramp and uneasy atmosphere like this, let alone a child.
But he didn"t know that Ye Sang was a natural optimist. He ignored her and she started to entertain herself.
She sat on the ground and swayed her legs while flipping through the manga p.o.r.n Duan Jinyan gave her before he left.
But——
She couldn"t even touch it.
Mu Chen couldn"t stand it anymore and glared at the little thing who laid on her stomach on the floor and spoke impatiently, “Stand up.”
“Okay…” Because he sounded so mad, the little thing climbed up unwillingly and hid the book behind her back.
As an adult, it obviously wasn"t the time for Mu Chen to be curious about what she was holding.
The man leaned back and pointed at a table of files and smiled, “You came prepared, didn"t you?”
Otherwise, why would she only pick this one without touching the other ones?
Ye Sang frowned her bun face and pouted in silence.
The little thing didn"t speak and Mu Chen wasn"t in a hurry to ask her again.
He waved at her, telling her to come over.
Ye Sang"s round eyes turned slightly and slowly moved over after hesitation.
“Uncle…” She opened her mouth and remembered all the heavy and profound duties and principles her grandpas taught her.
She wanted to use these to brainwash Mu Chen, but the man looked down and glared at her. After realizing what she wanted to do, he cut her off immediately.
“Shut it.
I don"t want to listen.”
Mu Chen turned to her, “How did you think of ripping this?”
No normal children would do that.
The little thing pouted and straightened her back under his suspicious eyes, “Uncle.”
She moved over to him and her eyes turned into crescents, “Can be we humans together?”
The strand of hair on the little girl"s head shot up as she tilted her innocent face up.
Mu Chen pressed her hair down expressionlessly.
Hmm…
It was just that her words didn"t sound nice.
“Who wants to be a human with you?” He humphed coldly and scorned, “You intentionally ruined my project. You know something about it, don"t you?”
If a normal child did something that this, it would be shocking.
But Ye Sang was hard to say.
Her origin was unknown and they didn"t know if her grandpas were real or not. But because of how she played pipa not long ago, Mu Chen had no choice but to believe her.
He pointed at the torn paper and smiled, “You can understand this, don"t you?”
The little girl pursed her lips together and didn"t speak.
She stole a glance at him and said, “If I tell you, you can"t curse at me…”
Mu Chen: “….” Did he look like the type of curse at a child for no reason? ??
The man gloomily snorted and agreed at last.
The little thing received his promise and had more courage. She straightened her back slightly and the strand of hair stood up on her head as she was pleased.
“Sangsang knows.” She looked at him with pretty eyes and sounded soft, “I know what the real antidote is.”
According to what her grandpas said, the difficult illness the research inst.i.tute had trouble dealing with were like toys to them.
Mu Chen: “…”
This kid is definitely something.
He breathed deeply and decided to stop discussing this with her to prevent him from feeling like he was being looked down on.
The man pinched her meaty face and smiled, “So you came and destroyed my project? Hmm?”
Mu Chen"s lips curved upwards and scorned, “How did I not know that our Sangsang had the beautiful characteristic of being pa.s.sionate and loving to the world?”
Any normal person would know that he was mocking her.
But the little thing didn"t know.
She even nodded slowly and replied, “My grandpa said Sangsang is a good child.”
Mu Chen: “…”
He didn"t know how to argue back with a child"s innocent words.
And he had no reason to argue back.
Ye Sang secretly glanced at him and saw that her villain daddy fell silent. She pouted and decided to tell the truth after pondering for a while.
She moved over slowly, “Well…
I didn"t do it for the world.”
She was only a five-year-old baby after all.
She wasn"t old enough to put the world in her heart.
Mu Chen raised his tone, “Mhm?”
He smiled angrily, “Then why did you rip my paper?”
The little thing was confused by her villain daddy"s way of thinking and shook her head as she replied with uncertainty, “S-Shouldn"t I make chaos with you together?”
Mu Chen smiled, “You can also consider joining the villain party.”
He sounded like the head of a pyramid scheme sending an evil invitation.
The little thing whimpered and climbed on him. Seeing that Mu Chen didn"t push her off, she boldly leaned over and whispered, “Sangsang just doesn"t want anything to happen to you…”
Her heart was tiny.
She couldn"t put the world in her heart.
Mu Chen was stroking on her neck and paused.
“What do you mean?” His expressions froze but he asked indifferently and she wasn"t able to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Ye Sang swayed her head and her eyes turned into crescents, “Can you stop doing bad things?”
Mu Chen stared at her darkly in silence.
The little thing didn"t sense his malice and probingly leaned in. She dragged her voice on and looked at him with the clearest and clean eyes he had seen in his life, “Life isn"t what you wished for, but Sangsang is.”
Ye Sang flew into his arms and she was soft like a little sun. Her clear yet innocent words made Mu Chen"s heart melt, “And I will hug you if the moon won"t hug you.”
“…Can you stop doing bad things, please?” After a while, the little girl mumbled. She looked up at the frozen Mu Chen boldly kissed him, “Daddy.”
Mu Chen"s heart trembled at her calling him “daddy” and feeling disbelief at the same time…
