Chapter 508 - Chapter 508 Chapter 506 Father-Daughter Match

Chapter 508: Chapter 506: Father-Daughter Match Chapter 508: Chapter 506: Father-Daughter Match Little Orange quickly turned to look at the person holding her.

The man had a handsome and profound face, his dark eyes deep like whirlpools, his features as sharply chiseled as if cut by a knife and carved by an axe.

It was the Trashy Dad she had seen on TV.

This was also the first time she was looking at him face-to-face.

Although she didn’t like Trashy Dad, she still exclaimed “wow” in her heart.

Trashy Dad was really, really handsome!

Little Orange had always thought that Uncle Yun Zhuo was the most beautiful person in the whole world, but after seeing Trashy Dad, she found his attractiveness on par with Uncle Yun Zhuo’s.

When Ye Chuner saw Gu Siting approaching, she quickly acted coquettishly, “Uncle, it was her fault first…”

Gu Siting didn’t pay attention to Ye Chuner and his eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Little Orange, his expression faintly bewildered.

Was it his illusion, or did he see a shadow of Ming Yao on this little pink bun?

Little Orange raised her hand and waved it in front of Gu Siting’s dark eyes, “Thank you, Mr. Rat, for helping me just now.”

Little Orange’s face exhibited a radiant smile, her eyes curving into crescents, shimmering with starry light, almost flipping one’s heart with cuteness.

Gu Siting’s resolute heart softened unconsciously.

He squatted down and his slender palm gently stroked her slightly curly hair, “Did you just protect Little Snowball?”

Little Snowball lay beside Gu Siting’s feet and meowed.

Little Orange nodded, pointing at Ye Chuner, “That lady wanted to kick the kitty, and I was afraid the kitty would get hurt, so I stepped in front of it.”

Ye Chuner’s face showed a flustered expression, “Uncle, my hand was scratched…”

In the presence of the imposing Gu Siting, Ye Chuner was somewhat scared and anxious.

Although her mommy had told her that the most authoritative person in the Presidential Residence was the Great-grandma, Uncle was, after all, the President, who was usually stern and serious, hardly ever jesting, which was somewhat frightening to behold.

“Did it scratch you without you touching it?” Gu Siting asked with a voice deep and cold.

Ye Chuner shrunk back, her neck recoiling, not daring to say another word.

Luminous Pearl stepped forward, quickly shielding Ye Chuner in her embrace, her face not looking too good as she glared at Gu Siting, “Chunie is just a child; why are you looking at her with those eyes? Even if she wanted to kick your cat, it’s just a beast…”

Before she could finish, seeing the sudden change in Gu Siting’s expression, Luminous Pearl swallowed the rest of her words.

Since becoming President, the aura around Gu Siting had grown stronger, with a single glance often enough to chill someone to the bone.

“Apologize!” Gu Siting spat out coldly.

Ye Chuner burrowed into Luminous Pearl’s embrace, obviously not wanting to apologize.

Why should she apologize when she was the one who was scratched by the cat?

Gu Siting cast an icy glance at Luminous Pearl, “Do not make me say it a second time!”

Ye Chuner, terrified, looked at Luminous Pearl who tensely nodded at her.

Ye Chuner bowed her head and reluctantly said in a low voice, “I’m sorry.”

“Louder.”

“Gu Siting, you’re being too much!” Luminous Pearl burst out angrily.

Gu Siting’s jawline tensed, his voice deep and coldly uncompromising, “Have you not realized your mistake?”

Ye Chuner’s eyes reddened as she raised her voice, “I’m sorry.”

Gu Siting waved his hand, “You may leave now.”

Luminous Pearl’s face turned a greenish-purple as she gave Gu Siting and Little Orange a fierce glare, and led Ye Chuner away.

After Luminous Pearl and Ye Chuner left, Little Orange turned back and looked up at Gu Siting.

Trashy Dad was so tall, like a towering tree.

Seeing Little Orange looking up at her, Gu Siting squatted down again, fearing his stern appearance would scare her, he softened his features slightly, “What’s your name?”

“Little Orange.”

Little Orange?

Gu Siting’s thin lips curved slightly, “Why are you here all by yourself? Where are your parents?”

Little Orange carried a hint of a milky scent, like a tender pink glutinous rice ball, with big shiny eyes that seemed to hide stars, making one’s heart soften unconsciously just by looking at her.

Gu Siting had never felt this way before.

He couldn’t help but wonder what her parents were like, to have such a beautiful little pink bun.

Gu Siting was thirty-two years old, at a man’s prime golden age.

The biggest regret in his life was not marrying the woman he loved.

And not having a child of his own.

Looking at the little girl in front of him, his heart couldn’t help but ripple.

“Little Orange!”

Gu Yanyu had searched through the banquet hall and hadn’t found Little Orange, he was terrified she might have been abducted by someone bad.

Although it was impossible for such a kidnapper to be at the Presidential Residence.

When Little Orange saw Gu Yanyu, she sprinted towards him, “Daddy.”

Gu Yanyu’s lips twitched.

How had he suddenly become her Daddy?

Gu Yanyu hugged Little Orange into his arms, his eyes filled with confusion as he looked at her, “Why are you calling me Daddy?”

Little Orange let out a sob, “I saw Trashy Dad, but I don’t want to acknowledge him. Daddy, can you pretend to be my daddy for now?”

Gu Yanyu, “…” When did he become so good with kids?

Standing not far away, Gu Siting watched Little Orange rush into Gu Yanyu’s arms, and suddenly, a sense of loss surged in his heart.

This feeling was truly inexplicable.

Why would he feel such an emotion towards a little child he didn’t know?

Gu Siting’s dark eyes half-narrowed as he looked at Gu Yanyu, “Is she your daughter?”

Gu Yanyu looked down at Little Orange, who tightly wrapped her pale little hands around his neck. He felt somewhat elated.

Look, the difference in Little Orange’s attitude towards him and Fourth Brother was stark.

“Fourth Brother, don’t scare my daughter,” Gu Yanyu still called Gu Siting ‘Fourth Brother’ in private.

Gu Siting’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, “I hadn’t heard about you getting married and having a daughter.”

“It’s quite normal for Fourth Brother not to know about my private affairs.”

Before Gu Siting could say anything else, Little Orange’s sweet, soft voice suddenly rang out, “Daddy, I want to eat cake!”

“Sure, I’ll take you to get some.”

In a blink of an eye, Gu Yanyu and Little Orange had disappeared from sight.

Gu Siting stared in the direction they had left for a long time.

He couldn’t understand why, seeing Gu Yanyu carrying Little Orange away, would make him feel so inexplicably uncomfortable.

It was as if something that belonged to him had been taken away by Gu Yanyu.

…

Inside the banquet hall.

Little Orange happily ate her cake, clearly having forgotten her mommy’s warning not to eat too much sweet food.

Little Orange’s doe-like big eyes rolled around when she suddenly saw a lady, surrounded by people, radiating noble elegance, and she asked in a soft voice, “Daddy, who is that auntie?”

Gu Yanyu felt a bit moody. Why had he turned from Daddy back to being a mouse [Little friend]? Still, he answered, “That’s the First Lady, Dai Na, the wife of the cool uncle you saw earlier.”

Little Orange frowned deeply and shook her head, “Daddy’s taste isn’t very good, his wife isn’t even half as pretty as my mommy.”

Happy New Year, meh~
