Chapter 205: Sangsang Running Away (Part 2)
The little thing’s curly lashes quivered and asked anxiously, “Will Sangsang’s tooth...grow out?”
Shen Chuchen opened his mouth and wanted to comfort her by saying “It will”, but Huo Yao pushed him to the side.
The man returned to his cold face and sat down on the couch gracefully while crossing his leg, “If you eat more sweets, your tooth won’t grow out.”
“...” Everyone fell silent together.
Damn.
He was such a dog.
How could he scare a child like this?
The little thing froze as what he expected and nodded subconsciously, “Sangsang won’t eat sweets anymore.”
“Toothie hurry up and grow.”
Shen Chuchen smiled from her cuteness and patted her head, “Then be a good girl and eat.”
The little thing jogged away to wash her hands.
“Hahahahaha,” After the little girl left, everyone in the room laughed without giving the five year old child any face.
Special Assistant Liu grinned, “She’s so cute hahaha, I finally understood why my master loves to bully her before now.”
She was so cute.
Why wouldn’t want to bully her until she cries?
When she turned her face into a frowning bun, any photo of her could be turned into a meme.
When everyone was roaring with laughter in the living room, Sangsang returned and saw this.
Ye Sang widened her eyes slightly, “...”
Her heart was shattered.
There was no more love in this world.
“Sang, ahem.... Sangsang.” Shen Yao stopped laughing and met with the little thing’s disbelieving eyes.
Ye Sang covered her ears, “I’m not listening, this is too much!”
They all laughed at her, it was just too much!
Huo Yao heard her standard script for a sad female protagonist and asked, “Who showed her TV dramas again?”
Shen Chuchen shook his head and his lips curled up.
“...”
Duan Jinyan rested his chin on his hand and his voice was filled with smiles, “Sister is so cute.”
She was like a funny little bun.
Ye Sang took a step back bitterly and mumbled, “Sangsang’s running away from home.”
The puppy suddenly dashed out from the corner and wagged its tail while barking excitedly.
“Woof woof woof!” ——You finally remembered our grand mission!
The little thing swayed her head and hugged the puppy tightly.
The two little things were too adorable.
“Woof.” It wagged its tail and looked at her with glistening eyes.
Take me too if you are running away!
Huo Yao: “...”
He couldn’t believe thhat a human and a dog had joined their hands together.
Meanwhile, Mu Chen glanced at the puppy in his arms in disdain.
He patted the little thing’s head and attacked her mercilessly, “Buy a globe sometime. The world is so big, you can not only look at it, but also turn it around.”
Ye Sang: “...”
She was too sad.
The little thing sat in her chair angrily and swayed her short legs, looking determined that she was going to leave.
But it was a shame that neither protagonists nor antagonists there believed her.
Shen Chuchen even looked at her as if she betrayed him.
The little thing pouted as she played with the little yuanbao on her neck.
She really wanted to see the outside world.
She had been going around between the three fathers and it was a lie if she said she wasn’t curious about the world outside.
Ye Sang pursed her lips together and blinked as she was eager for the outside.
...
Ye Sang wasn’t joking when she said she was going to run away. After filling her stomach, she jogged back to her room.
The adults there only thought that she was sad about losing her tooth and went to cry in her room.
Shen Yao swayed her thin legs and went upstairs to study.
But as soon as she pushed the door open, she saw her little sister sneaking under her blankets for something.
She raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, “Sangsang?”
“What are you doing?”
The little girl wanted to pulled the blanket off as it was in the middle of the summer and there was no way that she won’t be hot.
But Ye Sang put the blanket over her tightly and refused, “No no!”
Shen Yao became even more suspicious now.
“What are you doing? Little idiot?”
The little thing humphed. She won’t show her!
She made her blanket into a roll and her cheeks were flushed from how hot it was. She pouted slightly and shoved the small toys into her little bag.
Ye Sang sat with her leg crossed and started pondering seriously about what people bring when they ran away in dramas.
The little thing was confused. She put the bag on herself and patted it, then shoved a box of meat buns inside it.
Shen Yao raised an eyebrow and watched her doing her things.
She thought that Ye Sang was too bored so she decided to reenact running away from home, so she didn’t take her seriously and went back to her room while yawning.
The puppy quickly followed. Seeing that Ye Sang finished packing, it wagged its tail and gestured her to pick it up.
The little thing didn’t bring any clothes with her. She was wearing a light blue little dress with checker patterns, a little bag was on her waist, her hair was tied into a bun with a white puppy in her arms.
Nobody could tell that she was trying to run away from home.
“You are going to let her continue?”
Shen Yan’an rested his chin on his hand and stood by the corner. He bit his lips and revealed two sweet dimples, looking rather harmless.
Duan Jinyan leaned on the wall next to him and glanced at the little thing, “What else? Beat her up?”
Her fathers would probably beat them up first before they could even lay a hand on her.
Shen Yan’an fell silent.
*
It was night. The little thing finished packing her luggage as she patted her filled bag and sneaked downstairs.
Ye Sang’s eyes lit up at the empty living room.
“Let’s go.” The puppy rubbed against her leg and looked excitedly.
The little thing hugged the furry puppy and opened the small night lamp before sitting on the stool.
She remembered that all the people who ran away from home in drama left a letter behind.
The little thing swayed her legs and twirled a calligraphy brush. After a moment of hesitation, she left a sentence on the paper with her pretty handwriting.
Ye Sang bit the top of the brush and tore the paper into a strip. Then she put it in the most obvious place in the living and put a cup over it.
——The world is so big, I want to see it.
She left this behind and turned around to look at the mansion while mumbling to herself, “Bye...”
Chapter 206: Daddy Su Ye (Part 1)
The little puppy wagged its tail and watched as she walked away freely. It couldn’t help but think that perhaps all the villains’ children were carefree and decisive like this.
“Woof.” It barked and gestured Ye Sang to follow it.
As the king of dogs that her grandpas had elected, it could at least show her the quickest route to leave.
There were bodyguards at the Mu family, plus the people Huo Yao and Shen Chuchen brought over.
It was harder than climbing the sky for normal people to escape.
But Ye Sang was different.
Strictly speaking, the little puppy was a product of high technology and it was a special script placed in this novel’s world.
It could calculate their escape route in a few seconds and leave with her easily.
The little thing followed the puppy with her short legs.
The moon was shining bright in the sky. After climbing out from a dog hole from the back door, Ye Sang’s light blue dress was dirty and the puppy’s curly fur was black too.
The two looked rather pitiful.
The little thing squatted down and poked the puppy with her soft little hand, becoming bolder as she left the mansion.
“Where are we going?” Her milky voice sounded melancholic.
The puppy thought: I wouldn’t be standing here if I knew where we were going.
It nudged Ye Sang with its head and wagged its tail, “Woof.”
—— Did you bring money?
The little thing understood what it said and swayed her head. She mimicked the way male protagonist spoke in dramas and humphed, “Money?”
“What is that?”
“Do I, Ye Sang, need something dirty like money?”
Puppy: “...”
The little thing acted vividly. She raised her chin and her eyes were bright and clear:
“Don’t try to stain me this kind of dirty thing.”
Puppy: “...”
Sure, it understood what she meant.
But this kid didn’t bring any money with her.
It felt exhausting.
Wasn’t money the most basic thing to pack when running away from home? Why do you have a bunch of meat buns and random toys?
Ye Sang didn’t know that the puppy was crumbling down and picked it up, holding it in her arms. She patted her full bag and ran outside confidently.
Her grandpas had to send her to Daddy Huo’s office, but she didn’t need them this time.
She will do it herself.
The puppy fell into her arms lifelessly and suddenly felt a regret it had never felt before.
Well, she didn’t have to go look for the other two. The three she has now are all rich, isn’t nice to spend a retired life in the mansion? Why would she look for her other dads!?
But the arrow was already on the bow and there was no turning back. If they went back now, they would have to face three dark villains.
And Ye Sang would probably get beaten by all three of them at the same time.
So...
They couldn’t possibly go back.
Midnight in the city was brightly lit. All the street lights were dazzling and small lanterns were hung in front of shops of different sizes.
It was the little thing’s first time seeing colorful lanterns like this. She squatted in front of a shop’s sign and watched it curiously like an educated bun.
The appetizing smell of barbeque floated into her nose and Ye Sang covered her starving stomach. She blinked her dark cat eyes and convinced herself that she wasn’t hungry.
She was a five-year-old child with her curly hair tied into a bun, a delicate and small face, and the clear, black cat eyes under her curly lashes.
A few girls who sat by the barbeque stall eating lamb skewers and drinking looked at Ye Sang. Seeing that the little girl tilted her head and looked over, someone immediately covered their face,
“Ahhhh how is she so cute?”
“Whose child is that? Why is there no one with her?”
“I watched her squatting there for a few minutes now, her poor eyes made my heart tremble.”
Someone made a guess in a small voice, “Did she separate from her mom?”
Another person nudged the girl and whispered, “Hey sis, why don’t you go and ask her?”
The girl rolled her eyes, “What if she thinks I’m a child trafficker?”
It was true.
If her parents came and saw this, they would probably misunderstand them.
The girl fangirling over Ye Sang covered her face and stood up while humphing, “I’ll go if you guys aren’t going.”
She was a sucker for good looks and furry things, and the little girl just happened to be the type she loved.
The girl walked down and squatted down while asking gently, “Little sister, where’s your mom?”
The little thing was sorrowfully drawing circles on the ground and when she heard another voice, she replied crisply, “Mommy isn’t here...”
“What about your dad?”
Ye Sang was sensitive to human emotions and she could tell that this person didn’t have any evil intentions towards her.
The little thing shook her head, “Daddy isn’t here either.”
Well.
The girl confirmed that she definitely got lost.
She immediately held Ye Sang’s soft little hand and asked in a soft voice, “What’s your name? Do you remember your daddy and mommy’s phone number?”
They’ll have to ask the police to help them if they couldn’t find her parents.
The little thing replied, “My name is Ye Sang.”
The girl nodded, “Sangsang, right? Are you hungry?”
She brought Ye Sang back to the table and her friends were shocked that she really brought the child back.
“Damn, did you actually kidnap her?”
The girl pouted and argued back, “What do you mean by kidnap? She can’t find her parents.”
She smiled and blinked as she introduced herself, “Sangsang, you can call me Sister Liu.”
“Sister Liu...” The little thing repeated with a milky voice. She then nodded and glanced at all the people who were looking at her.
Xiao Liu saw that she was cute and passed some skewers they just ordered over, “Are you hungry?”
“Yes.” Ye Sang swallowed and her dark eyes were clear. She looked down and recalled what her mommy used to teach her, “Sangsang will give it back to sister...”
But it was a question of how she was going to return it because she didn’t have any money.
The little thing clenched her bag sorrowfully.
“Sangsang will give it back to sister...”
Xiao Liu didn’t take her words seriously and rubbed her head with a smile, “Okay.”
The little girl felt relieved and started eating a lamb skewer happily. Her cheeks puffed from food and her eyes were full of satisfaction.
Xiao Liu smiled and gave her a glass of water. Her friends all sat around them and started scrolling on their phones out of boredom.
“... Oi oi oi, look, you guys.”
The girl passed her phone to Xiao Liu and mumbled, “Team HL got exposed. Apparently, God Su was involved in match-fixing.”
Chapter 207: Daddy Su Ye (Part 2)
It was the title of the news on Weibo.
After the news got exposed, all the players and crowd exploded.
Just like the girl, they were all disappointed and full of disbelief.
“Impossible...” Someone muttered, “That’s God Su.”
The girl put her hand in her pocket, “I don’t think it’s impossible, who knows.”
“I was watching that game. They could’ve won but God Su threw the game.”
Xiao Liu couldn’t help but argue back, “How do you know that he threw the game intentionally? What if...”
What if there was a reason for it?
The girl smiled, “Anyone could see that God Su was match-fixing, that’s God Su we are talking about...”
She muttered.
He used to be many people’s aspirations.
The little thing heard their conversation and widened her eyes slightly. Cumin stuck on her lips and made her pale little face look strangely cute.
“Sister, what is God Su?” She asked.
She spoke inaudibly and sounded milky.
Xiao Liu smiled and pinched her cheeks, “God Su...”
“Perhaps...” After a while, she replied, “Our belief?”
It sounded cringy but something like e-sports could indeed make them feel hot-blooded.
Even she was influenced by this kind of emotion.
Ye Sang couldn’t understand it, so she swayed her head while filling her starving stomach.
Xiao Liu saw that she finished eating and wiped her mouth, “Baby, I’ll take you to the police station and help you find your parents, okay?
This sounded like a devil to Ye Sang’s ears.
The little thing quivered and hugged the puppy tightly while shaking her head, “S-Sangsang is full.”
But she didn’t want to go back to her daddies.
“What’s wrong? I’ll take you to the police station?” Xiao Liu saw that she was resisting the suggestion and softened her voice, trying to comfort her.
Ye Sang blinked. After pondering for a while, she took out two meant buns from her little bag. She cupped the lunch box in her while hands with little buns inside.
She generously said, “Can Sangsang give this to sister in exchange? Don’t take Sangsang to the police station...”
Xiao Liu blinked.
She was such a good girl.
She even knew how to exchange with others.
“I don’t want your buns. You.....” The girl hesitated, “You aren’t safe outside alone.”
What if she meets a bad person?
The little girl was scared that she would really send her to the police station, she packed up her buns and stuffed them back into her bag. Then she jumped down from the chair and hugged her puppy, “Sister...”
“Sangsang’s daddy is over there. I don’t need to go to the police anymore.”
She pointed at an internet cafe which was not far from the barbeque stall. A man was smoking a cigarette, looking quite young.
Xiao Liu looked at her suspiciously in disbelief, “Really?”
The little thing nodded, “Really.”
“Alright.” The girl forced herself to believe it because she didn’t think that a five-year-old child could lie.
Xiao Liu couldn’t let her go alone and followed her.
The little thing walked away and the puppy quickly followed.
Ye Sang was scared that he would expose her, so she stretched out her arms and called, “Hug!”
She didn’t call him daddy to avoid being exposed.
She was such a smart girl.
Ye Li, who was smoking, looked down and saw a little girl who looked like a soft and white ball asking him to hug.
He silently smiled.
She was quite brave.
What if he was a bad person?
The man picked her up and pinched her meaty cheeks while grinning, “Little sister, what do you want from uncle?”
He sounded like a human trafficker.
Ye Sang rested her head on his shoulder and swayed her legs and she corrected him.
“I’m Sangsang.”
Ye Li heard her serious tone of voice and found it funny, “Ah, Sangsang.”
“Where are your parents?”
It was her second time hearing the question after running away from home.
She puffed her soft cheeks and felt like she was being doubted.
“Sangsang is a big child.....” The little thing dragged her voice on, “A big child doesn’t need Daddy.”
Ye Li: “..... Pfff.”
How was she so funny?
The man felt frustrated from the game but felt slightly better. He leaned in and grinned. “Let me guess, you ran away from home?”
She dressed quite nicely. Other than the dirt on it, she didn’t look like a homeless child.
There was only one possibility left.
This brat ran away from home.
Ye Sang didn’t feel embarrassed to be exposed, she even puffed her face. “That’s not called running away from home.”
“The world is so big, Sangsang wants to see it.”
Ye Li went with her saying smoothly, “And you came here?”
He pointed at Xiao Liu who haven’t walked far yet and teased, “Grabbing some food for free on the way?”
The little thing blushed and looked down embarrassedly, “Sangsang will pay sister back.”
“Pff, you are a good child, aren’t you?” Ye Li carried her and strode off, “I’ll send you to the police. A child like you who still drinks milk shouldn’t play running away from home.”
“You’ll behave once your dad beats you up.”
“Be good.”
Ye Sang’s cute expressions froze. She never imagined that she just escaped a dragon’s nest just to fall into a tiger’s nest instead.
The little thing rested her cheeks on Ye Li’s shoulders and called, “No no. Bad uncle, I-I don’t want daddy to hit my butt.”
The little thing panicked.
She had only just left, how embarrassing would it be if she got sent back?
Perhaps all three of them would beat her together too.
“Wu. Uncle...let Sangsang go.” She yelled. “Sangsang is here looking for her daddy!!”
Ye Li almost turned deaf.
He put her down and poked his ears. He raised an eyebrow and grinned, “Daddy? What daddy?”
“Your daddy’s waiting for you to eat dinner at home. Be good, will ya? Stop being so rebellious at such a young age.”
Ye Li’s ears finally became quiet and picked her up again. He cleared his throat, “What is your dad’s name? I’ll talk with the police and let them help you find him.”
He didn’t expect to encounter something like this.
Ye Li couldn’t help but sigh, as there were so many strange things nowadays.
The little thing swayed her legs as she didn’t want to go back like this. She replied milkily, “Mah Daddy is called Su Ye.”
“Uncle, can you let Sangsang go first?”
The strand of hair on Ye Sang’s hair drooped down lifelessly.
Wu.
She wants to find Daddy.
Chapter 208: Daddy Su Ye (Part 3)
Wu.
She’s going to find Daddy.
Ye Li’s hand holding the child trembled and his eyes widened at the name “Su Ye”, “What did you say?”
“What’s your dad’s name?!”
He was full of disbelief.
The little thing swayed her head and whispered next to his ears, “Su Ye.”
“...” Ye Li stood there as if a bolt of lightning struck him.
Damn.
His God Su had a daughter?!
Ye Li mumbled in disbelief, “This can’t be real...”
When he was questioning his life, his phone rang. He took out his phone from the pocket and looked at the caller ID.
It was from the coach.
He picked up and an irritated man’s voice came through, “I told you to buy us supper, did you fall into a toilet? What’s taking you so long?”
Ye Li smiled awkwardly, “Well, I got caught up with something.”
Who would’ve thought that he encountered something so strange on his way to buy supper?
“What needs you to be there for so long?” The coach sounded suspicious as he obviously didn’t believe him.
He urged, “Hurry up and come back after getting supper. The internet’s going crazy over our team and you won’t make it out easily if someone recognizes your face.”
The level of attention e-sports was getting wasn’t less than the idols of the entertainment industry.
God Su used to be all the players’ glory too.
The incident about him being involved in match-fixing would go viral on the internet before tomorrow.
Ye Li realized how important this was and nodded, “Okay.”
He put the little thing on the ground and urged her to not run away.
Then Ye Li quickly went to buy supper for six people, then held them in hand with the child in the other.
“Uncle...” The little thing held the puppy and pressed down its head, asking with her sweet voice, “Where are we going?”
Ye Li looked complicated. He held the little bun tightly and replied numbly, “We are going back to the club.”
Woah...
Although Ye Sang didn’t know what a club was, she swayed her short legs and her big cat eyes were filled with anxiety, “Uncle, y-you can’t lie to a child.”
She didn’t want to go to the police station.
The little thing mumbled anxiously, “Children are easy to lie to.”
Ye Li found it amusing, “...a big child like you still needs to worry about that?”
Ye Sang rested her head on his shoulder as she realized that she couldn’t argue back. She pouted and decided to stay quiet.
...
Ye Li felt complicated as he carried a chubby child back. He didn’t know if he lost his mind but he really brought her back to base.
Needless to guess, he would have to face his teammates’ death glares.
The little girl probably felt sleepy. Her hand on the puppy loosen and it almost fell down.
The puppy quivered and quickly jumped out of her arms.
Seeing that no one noticed it, it ran away and found a safe place to rest.
There were only a few teammates on their team. Perhaps other teams had numerous players, but Team HL only had five.
Six plus the coach.
“Wu...” The little thing buried her head in Ye LI’s arms and slept quietly. She puffed her cheeks and her curly eyes were thick and clear like a pretty china doll.
The man carefully carried her and under his teammates’ strange glances, his lips twitched and glanced around but he didn’t see God Su anywhere.
Ye Li sighed slightly.
He knew that Su Ye wasn’t in a good mood so he didn’t discuss this with his teammates as he planned to talk about it after he comes back.
“Coach, is there any way we can get around God Su’s incident?” Wen Xuan rubbed his hair unhappily, “How would we have lost if God Su’s hand wasn’t injured?”
It wasn’t a big deal to lose a game.
Every team has its low valley.
But the problem was that he was God Su.
He was the number one belief to players.
Losing a game in the world championship series was shocking to the outside world.
“Coach...” Another boy who played supported couldn’t help but suggest, “W-Why don’t you let God Su be the substitute for a while?”
They were worried that Su Ye won’t be able to deal with all the pressure like this.
All the public opinions and invisible pressure were suffocating.
“We don’t care whether we lose or not, HL wouldn’t be where it is right now without God Su anyway.”
The coach shook his head in frustration, “I want to, but I need Su Ye’s agreement on it.”
In a way, this man was terrifyingly stubborn.
He picked his path and he would walk it to the end.
Ye Li, who stayed quiet while holding Ye Sang sneered, “How is this God Su’s problem? There are obviously people who don’t want to see us win.”
Dirty tricks were everywhere.
Wen Xuan: “Wait until the break ends. Now that God Su’s hand is recovered, we are going to crush them in the defeated group stage.”
“Oh right.” After they discussed the competitions for a while, the boy with a babyface realized something wrong and turned to Ye Li, “Where did you kidnap that child from?”
Ye Li rolled his eyes, “What do you mean by kidnap?”
He swayed the sleeping little thing in his arms, “This brat ran away from home and wouldn’t go back no matter what. Plus, she said.....”
After a pause, Ye Li’s lips twitched under everyone’s curious glance and replied, “She said her Dad is called Su Ye.”
“It made me scared so I brought her back.”
Forget about whether what she said was true or not, he couldn’t leave her alone out there anyway.
The babyface boy was called Xiao Fei. He rested his chin on his hands and replied, “It must be fake. Our God Su has so many wife fans and girlfriend fans, perhaps someone’s trying to scam him.”
Ye Sang shrugged, “I already brought her back so let’s wait until God Su comes back.”
As they were talking, the door opened.
They all turned around and looked at the man who was at the door.
The protagonist they were talking about was in a black coat, his delicate facial perfect. His phoenix eyes looked devilish and he leaned against it with unknown emotions.
Su Ye lit a cigarette lazily but didn’t smoke it. He looked down and waited for the scarlet end to finish burning before extinguishing it expressionlessly.
“God Su...”
The teammates all stood up. They couldn’t tell what the man was feeling and they all looked at each other as no one wanted to touch the topic.
After all, their God Su didn’t really have a good temper.
He had an evil side but as well as a good side, and he resembled a villain in novels.
And they didn’t know why he decided to start playing in competitions.
