Five Villain Daddies Are Fighting To Spoil Me - Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Too Silly

It was the first time Huo Yao said goodnight to her.

The strand of hair standing up on the little thing’s head swayed as she felt Huo Yao’s rare and gentle emotion, but she was confused as to why Daddy was happy.

…

Jiyue School was a place in the Empire known for the gathering of noble and wealthy people.

All the children there were either wealthy or noble; randomly pick a child and they could be the young miss or young master of a famous corporation.

Children who were educated in an environment like this were all rather prideful and arrogant.

They looked down on illegitimate children, and they despise heirs who weren’t actually blood-related.

Huo Chenyu’s identity as an adopted child was known to the entire school.

“…”

“Ah, the Huo family is such a big family, how did they have an odd one out like him?”

“Pfft, it’s only because the Huo family’s owner doesn’t have a child, otherwise how could he even have a chance?” A boy who disliked Huo Chenyu commented in jealousy.

Another person nodded in agreement, “Exactly. He’s good looking but why is he pretending to be cold?”

“He’s just a shameful adopted child, why is he even in our class?”

“Exactly.”

…

By the time Huo Chenyu returned to the Huo family, it was almost ten o’clock at night.

Other than the bodyguards on their post and maids, the mansion seemed to sink into a deathly stillness.

“….” The young boy panted slightly and his face became pale at the thought of something.

After he stepped into the pitch black mansion, his body became as rigid as it could ever be.

Borderless dread crept on him and he looked upstairs fearfully.

Usually, when he came back, a maid who seemed to sense his fear for darkness would always keep a light on for him at night.

But tonight was different.

Upstairs was completely dark too.

At this moment, lightning struck and thunder rolled outside, and Huo Chenyu could feel his body growing colder and colder.

He stood in the spot for so long that he almost forgot that he was scared. When there was only deathly stillness surrounding him, a light upstairs lit up unnoticed.

“…” Huo Chenyu was slightly surprised.

He stared at the bright light and his first reaction wasn’t fear. Instead, he was pondering…

Who could still be awake at this time?

The young boy moved his rigid fingers and instinctively lifted his feet, going up the stairs one by one with shaking pupils.

When he reached the corner and hesitated to go up, a young voice sounding frustrated sounded.

“Hu hu hu.

It’s all my cheap daddy’s fault.

I almost fell asleep.”

The little thing walked over with her short legs and blew on her red hands in an exaggerated and childish way.

Huo Chenyu recognized Ye Sang’s voice and froze at the corner.

He never thought that the person who caringly kept a light on for him at night was Ye Sang.

The boy stared blankly into space, clenching his fist as he couldn’t stop himself from thinking.

She’s only five too…

The little thing shook her hands and turned on the light, looking at her “achievement” as she was extremely pleased with herself. She slowly turned around and headed back to her room.

When Huo Chenyu saw her walking towards him, his first reaction was to hide.

But he was still one step slow.

The little thing saw him and her eyes lit up, calling him without a second thought.

“Brodda!”

“…”

Now he can’t run away even if he wanted to.

The little thing waved her hands happily, “You are back.”

The boy squeezed a rigid reply and looked at the little thing’s red hands. Without knowing why, his heart clenched in pain.

She’s so…

Silly.

So silly.
