The Villain’s Family Favorite Little Sweetheart Chapter 218: Bittersweet

Feeling thoroughly dejected, Yu Jinxiao didn’t want to speak. He leaned back, resting his chin on his hand, and stared out the window.

While little Yuanyuan wasn’t always the best at reading the room, she had her moments of perceptiveness.

He made his disappointment clear, hoping she’d pick up on it and come over to “comfort” him.

“Snore… snore…”

Five seconds later, the sound of even breathing came from the seat next to him. Yu Yuanyuan had curled up in her car seat and fallen asleep, her backpack having rolled to the floor.

Yu Jinxiao: “…”

So, he wasn’t even on her priority list anymore?

The gentle rocking of the car seemed like a lullaby to Yu yuanyuan, and she slept soundly the entire ride home, never stirring, even when they arrived at the door.

At first, Yu Jinxiao, still feeling bitter, didn’t want to deal with her. But then he thought about how distant their “father-daughter” bond already seemed. If he didn’t do some proper fatherly things soon, who knows—one day she might come home from kindergarten and not even recognize him.

Reluctantly, he carried the sleepy Yu yuanyuan out of the car. As soon as her feet touched the ground, the little one woke up, perking up immediately as she greeted the house staff, cheerfully telling each person how much she missed them at school.

Except for Yu Jinxiao, of course. Everyone else she met after school was charmed and amused by her.

The others: Haha! So cute!

Yu Jinxiao: Bitter… bitter, indeed.

After playing for a while, her two older brothers, Yu Mingxi and Yu Yingze, returned from school. She ran over to them, whining for hugs and snuggling into their arms, sweetly telling them how much she had missed them, almost bringing herself to tears.

Yu Mingxi immediately scooped her up, gently patting her head as if she were the most precious thing in the world.

Meanwhile, Yu Jinxiao, sitting alone in an armchair, couldn’t help but feel like the most unnecessary presence in the room.

She had thought of everyone—except him!

Could it be because he was the one who dragged her to kindergarten that morning?

Maybe she wasn’t just forgetting him—maybe she was holding a grudge?

This passing thought sent a wave of concern through him. But what could he do about it now? He wasn’t about to stoop so low as to beg for her attention, was he?

Trying his best to hide his frustration, Yu Jinxiao masked his disappointment, refusing to let his desire for her attention show even a little.

After dinner, Yu Mingxi and Yu Yingze went upstairs to do their homework, leaving Yu yuanyuan alone to play with her toys in her room.

While she played, her mind wandered back to the afternoon when the teacher had called her to the blackboard. The memory of struggling with simple math made her little heart race with anxiety.

Would the teacher ask her to do math again tomorrow?

What if she couldn’t answer? That would be so embarrassing!

All the other kids seemed to know the answers, and the thought of being the only one who didn’t made her feel like she was the dumbest kid in the class. Her mood plummeted, and the toys in front of her lost their appeal.

Wobbling out of her room, she saw both of her brothers deep in their studies. It seemed like there was only one option left…

Yu yuanyuan made her way to Yu Jinxiao’s study.

Her father looked particularly relaxed, lazily leaning back in his chair, casually flipping through a book.

Sensing the presence of a small white shadow hovering at the door, Yu Jinxiao raised an eyebrow. Ah, so the little dumpling had finally remembered him.

“What is it?” he asked, noticing her hesitation at the doorway.

Normally, she’d have snuck up on him by now, launching some surprise attack.

Her small hands clutched the doorframe, her head cutely tilted as she peeked in. “Daddy, can you teach Yuanyuan how to do math?”

Being asked for help caught Yu Jinxiao completely off guard. He immediately set his book aside and even sat up straight in his chair.

Yu Mingxi and Yu Yingze had always been independent and kept up with their schoolwork, never needing his help.

Finally, after years of waiting, Yu Jinxiao had his chance to share his knowledge—with Yu yuanyuan!

“Come here,” he said, keeping his tone cool despite the excitement bubbling inside him.
