Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Huo Chengyi’s Promise (1)_1

He was deeply shocked, but not angry.

Huo Chengyi reached out and touched Huo Ting’s head.

Caught off guard by the pat on the head, Huo Ting was somewhat stunned.

His expression was a bit unnatural, but he didn’t shy away.

Huo Chengyi said, "Ating, Daddy isn’t angry. Daddy feels sorry but also happy, sorry for not properly listening to your real thoughts all this time, and happy that you finally made friends and learned to stand up to protect them."

"If you ask me, I would’ve done it anyway!" Huo Ting turned his face away, using an angry expression to hide his current embarrassment and sheepishness.

From his son’s proud little expression, Huo Chengyi could tell that the little guy was quite receptive to his apology.

Huo Chengyi laughed softly.

His laugh left everyone else completely bewildered.

Huo Ting also stared at his father in surprise.

He rarely saw his father smile like that in his memory.

Usually, he was very stern, with a serious face.

Susu said, "Don’t laugh! We’re talking about something really important!"

This uncle isn’t obedient at all!

"Okay, I won’t laugh," Huo Chengyi agreed, "So I apologize, and I will make amends. Will you and Ating forgive me?"

"Of course! To acknowledge one’s mistakes and mend one’s ways is to be a good child!" Susu replied.

"Then from now on, I’ll reduce my workload every day and spare more time for Ating. If I can’t be there in person, I’ll video call with him. What do you think?"

Huo Chengyi earnestly asked for Susu’s opinion.

"Okay!" Susu nodded, approving Huo Chengyi’s plan for change.

This uncle is quite good—it’s said and then done. He’s a good child.

Susu took a piece of candy from her pocket and handed it to Huo Chengyi, "This is your reward."

Huo Chengyi looked at the candy in a daze.

After a second’s pause, he extended his hand and took it from Susu’s hand.

"Reward?" Huo Chengyi asked Susu, looking at the candy.

"Mhm, you’ve been good, so you get a sweet candy!" explained Susu.

"Okay." Huo Chengyi laughed as he accepted the candy with a special significance.

Huo Ting watched from the side and grumbled, "Little thing, you’ve never given me one to eat!"

"You’re not well-behaved," Susu thought for a moment and then answered.

"Haven’t I been very well-behaved recently? Didn’t you acknowledge that I’m your friend?"

Huo Ting was unhappy. He had changed according to what this little thing said!

He even kept the dog-walking within the yard recently!

Apart from that scare with the woman, he hadn’t scared anyone else!

"Then..." Susu fell into thought.

"Also, you gave him candy just because he said he’d change! I’ve changed, and you still won’t give me any!"

Huo Ting never thought he’d see the day when he’d be jealous of his own father over a piece of candy.

Seeing the look on his son’s face, the smile on Huo Chengyi became even more pronounced.

It was truly the right decision to put aside all work and come here today.

Of course, he still had to thank the soft and adorable little girl in front of him.

"Susu, thank you. As a token of my gratitude, you may ask me for three favors," said Huo Chengyi to Susu.

Ask Huo Chengyi for three favors???

Gosh!

The Qin Family members were all astonished.

The servants and bodyguards Huo Chengyi brought were also stunned.

Butler Liu was particularly shocked, as this was the first time he knew of their Mr. Huo making such a promise to anyone!

Their Mr. Huo was renowned for keeping his word—having such a promise from him was worth far more than any amount of gold!
