“Who’d want to eat candy?” Fu Pei’s voice sounded hoarse and dull. He had put on his unruly look again and pretended to be ferocious, but he could not hide his awkwardness.

Little Fool deserved to be called Little Fool. How could she give him candy? Did he look like a baby?

Utterly childish!

Who would want that?

Fu Ting raised her fair wrist as she sweetly coaxed him, “Please, try it.”

Fu Pei glanced at her sideways; the girl’s doe eyes were looking at him pitifully…

Who could freaking bear to refuse her?

The teenager held his stern face for less than three seconds before he took the candy as though he could not control his body movement. “I don’t want to embarrass you, that’s all,” he quickly spoke up in his defense.

As he spoke, he peeled off the candy wrapper and put the candy into his mouth.

So sweet…

The tip of his tongue rolled up in his mouth. The wonderful sweetness spread from his taste buds to his entire body, as though it could chase away all the worldly sufferings.

Fu Ting adorably grinned wide, and a little dimple appeared on her cheek. “Is it delicious? This is my favorite flavor.”

The little girl was born with a delicate and lovely look. This made her look extremely obedient no matter what expression she put on.

At this moment, her clear doe eyes glowed like they were filled with enchanting stars in the galaxy. It was as though a man’s soul could be drawn to it.

Fu Pei seemed to understand what she meant from the expression in her eyes.

‘My favorite flavor for my favorite person: you!’

Fu Pei’s breaths grew shallow. He paused slightly and glanced at Fu Ting for a while.

He always thought that Fu Ting was mentally ill. However, from what happened just now and what Little Fool had said, he did not think that she had an intellectual disability.

Since she was not stupid, why would she keep calling him ‘father’ and follow him?

Moreover, she cared about his matters so much and protected him. This was strange.

Perhaps, she was secretly in love with him?

When this thought came out of his mind, the young boy’s fair ear tips gradually reddened.

He narrowed his eyes, and his voice sounded clear and drone out with a hint of playfulness and cynicism. “Little Fool, do you think your brother—me—is charming?”

“You’re not my brother, but my father.” Fu Ting corrected him determinedly, and her eyebrows curved. “Of course, Daddy is the most charming man! Otherwise, how could you have such a cute daughter like me?”

“…” Fu Pei’s handsome eyebrows twitched and made it a point to ignore the word ‘daughter’.

He raised his hand and touched the little girl’s hair. He curled up his thin lips and used a soft and lazy tone to speak, “I know I’m charming. There are always girls who want my body and try to grab my attention. To prevent your affection for me from growing, I’ll have to say these harsh words now.”

Fu Ting’s little brain was overwhelmed with questions. “Huh?”

Fu Pei pulled his shirt and tie slightly to make them lie loosely on the side of his neck and revealed his collarbone. He looked relaxed and decadent. “Don’t love me. There’ll be no outcome.”

Fu Ting was speechless. Her head was filled with a bunch of question marks.

Fu Pei raised his eyebrows in a manner a delinquent would. “Although you succeeded in attracting my attention, live in my house, and bind me with this father-daughter relationship, I won’t have any feelings for you.”

“…”

Fu Ting did not know how to explain it. She looked at him, and her expression told him, ‘Are you alright?’

In Fu Pei’s mind, he thought that this must have been a big blow for her. He thought to himself, ‘How fragile is an adolescent girl…’

He pressed his glabella and said sincerely, “You’re still young, and you have a great and long future ahead. You shouldn’t be trapped in the illusion of puppy love. We’re from two different worlds, just like two parallel lines…”

Fu Ting could not bear with him anymore and finally interrupted him, “Dad, delete your thoughts that don’t conform to the core values ​​of society! That’s immoral!”​​

It was Fu Pei’s turn to be dumbfounded.

Forget it! He should not have hope for a mental patient!
