"Come on in~"
Joanna's cool voice came from inside the room, along with Liu Nian's cheerful laughter.
Joanna, who had been sitting on the sofa playing with Liu Nian, stood up and immediately wiped the smile from her face.
She really liked the child. She was cute, and acted like a little grown-up.
What Liu Nian had gone through was a lot like what Joanna had experienced as a child. But unlike Joanna, Liu Nian didn't hate every man under the sun.

"Lulu told me what happened. I misunderstood before, but you're an adult—couldn't you have stopped a child? Who would've looked after her if you all got drunk? Could you have taken responsibility if something happened? What kind of father are you, huh?"
The more Joanna spoke, the angrier she got.
Lin Ao looked utterly bewildered. Was this your daughter or mine? Why were you scolding me like her mother?

Liu Nian came over and tugged at Joanna's clothes, looking up at her with big, watery eyes.
