Companionship (Patron 9/10)

"My princess, do you hate your father that much?"

His expression changed, and he smiled gently. Ye Chen suddenly spoke, startling the bear and the child.

"Bbss."

Bepo shuddered and jumped to his feet.

"Sit down! We've been together many times, no need to be so nervous!"

Seeing Bepo's strong reaction, Ye Chen smiled.

"Sorry."

He immediately apologized, and Ye Chen shook his head at the fact that Bepo had poor mental resilience.

"Snort!"

In contrast, Bepo's reaction was quite assertive; she simply snorted coldly, turned her head, and presented the back of her head to Ye Chen.

"Tell Dad what he did wrong, and Dad will correct it."

Walking up to the guy, Ye Chen squatted down, trying to appease him. No matter whose fault it was, he had to admit it was his own.

"Daddy doesn't love me anymore, he doesn't care about me anymore, I hate Daddy!"

With pouting and looking very aggrieved, the little guy blinked his big eyes, as if he was about to cry.

"Haven't you always wanted to go out and play? Daddy will take you, okay!"

Reaching out, Ye Chen stroked the girl's pink hair and smiled.

"Really?"

The guy immediately looked up, full of anticipation.

"Kindness!"

Nodding emphatically, Ye Chen had already decided not to restrict the little guy's movements anymore. He used to worry that he was too old, but now it was okay, even though he was only two and a half years old.

All he wanted was for the guy to be happy and have a smile on his face.

"Smack!"

With drool all over its cheeks, a pair of short arms wrapped around Ye Chen's neck, and Ye Chen also reached out and picked it up.

"I love my dad the most."

It's so much fun! The little girl who just hated it the most is now her favorite.

From childhood, Ye Chen noticed a pattern: when his son was angry or willful, he would hate his father the most, but as soon as he was happy, he would love his father the most. It was very easy to figure out.

"Bepo, want to come along?"

Holding the baby, Ye Chen decided to spend some quality time with him today.

"Boss, I won't."

He waved his hand Bepo shook his head. To be honest, his heart skipped a beat and he felt a little uneasy whenever he saw Ye Chen.

"All right!"

Nodding, Ye Chen hoisted the object onto his neck, grabbed its feet, and walked down the corridor.

"So high!"

Grabbing Ye Chen's hair, the guy kept shaking him.

"Don't move around, you'll fall."

"With Dad here, I'm not afraid."

"If you don't behave, you'll get a spanking."

"Bad dad, I'll tell Master!"

Ye Chen's face darkened, and he snorted, as if he had remembered something unpleasant.

It seems that last time Ye Chen accidentally raised his voice and made the guy cry, so the guy ran to Bai Doudou to complain. That made Bai Doudou annoyed with Ye Chen.

You should know that in the country, Bai Doudou's love for Ya Tou is no less than Ye Chen's, and she protects her without any reason or logic.

Whenever the girl is unhappy and that guy bumps into her, her face darkens, and she starts causing trouble. No matter who it is, they'll get a beating, including Ye Chen.

It seems that Hina's death has always been a thorn in his side. Bai Doudou believes that he failed to protect her, so he pours all his self-blame and affection into Ya Tou, making her even more important than himself.

He would do everything he could to get his daughter whatever she wanted, whether it was a mountain of gold and silver, something that flew, ran on the ground, or swam in the sea.

The girl never said "I hate those three words" to Bai Doudou. It was always "I like them the most" or "I love them the most." For example, "I like Master the most."

Ye Chen, on the other hand, blurted out, "I hate my dad the most! I don't want to talk to him anymore! He's a stinky dad! A bad dad!" The difference was stark.

Angel Island is currently the largest island in the country besides God's Island, and also the largest city.

At this moment, the streets are brightly decorated, everyone's face is beaming with smiles, and shops line the streets and alleys.

It appears that Blueno's tavern and Tesoro's Gran Tesoro are located here.

That's right, Tesoro opened an entertainment center ten years ago, and it was incredibly successful.

After leaving the God's Island, Ye Chen held the girl's hand and strolled along the street.

"Dad, what's that?!"

They dragged Ye Chen to a shop where many doll-like objects were displayed.

"Sister Kalifa gave me one too, it's just like this." Holding a pretty cloud doll, the guy had a smile on his face.

"That's a bubble ring; my master gave it to me."

Suddenly, the girl led Ye Chen to another shop.

"A cloud balloon, Reiju- neechan gave it to me."

The street was filled with all sorts of toys and snacks, and I could even name all the toys I played with, even if I didn't know their names.

Of course, they were either gifts from his master, Uncle Enel. In the end, Ye Chen realized that Bai Doudou appeared the most, but he himself never appeared.

After wandering around for a while, Ye Chen looked at the hopping and skipping guy, his eyes filled with guilt.

"Whatever Sakura likes, Daddy will buy it for you today!"

"Dad, it's yours, no cheating allowed."

"Dad keeps his word."

About half an hour later, Ye Chen and his companion rested in front of a takoyaki shop.

During this time, he must have bought a lot of things, such as various gifts to take back. Of course, Ye Chen abused his power and had his soldiers take these things back to the Imperial Palace City.

What made Ye Chen most gratified was that most of the things were bought by the girl to give to Bai Doudou and the others. She was already so sensible and knew how to be virtuous, repaying the love of Bai Doudou and the others. Ye Chen felt so angry that his teeth itched.

"Dad, are you unhappy?"

While eating takoyaki, the guy tilted his head and looked strangely at the dejected Ye Chen.

"Daddy isn't unhappy." Ye Chen smiled slightly and patted the girl's head.

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten Dad. This is a gift for him."

With a quick dart of his dark eyes, the girl pulled a pig's head necklace from the bag in her princess dress. It was not only silly-looking, but also clearly a cheap, mass-produced item.

He left his seat, walked to Ye Chen's side, gestured for him to lower his head, and then personally put the lid on for Ye Chen.

"Dad, you're not allowed to take it off, or I'll get angry."

With her hands on her hips, the girl looked very serious.

Looking down at the silly-looking pig's head ornament, Ye Chen twitched his lips. His originally aloof and domineering demeanor vanished in an instant.

"Okay! Dad promises not to take it off."

Regardless of its monetary value, Ye Chen only knew that this was the first gift his beloved daughter had given him, and that she had personally put it on him. He didn't care if it looked ugly or handsome; in Ye Chen's heart, it was the most precious thing.

"I love my dad the most."

Holding Ye Chen's head, the girl planted a kiss on his cheek, leaving his face greasy. Ye Chen was completely satisfied; the takoyaki suddenly tasted especially delicious, and he felt a sweet joy in his heart.
