“Yu Yuanyuan…” Yu Jinxiao was ready to pull out his trump card!

His eyes turned cold, his expression fierce, and with a low, stern voice, he called her name, word by word, while staring at her without blinking.

No matter what, he wouldn’t smile or look away. His gaze was filled with enough intimidation to reclaim his dignity as a father.

Yu Yuanyuan’s survival instincts kicked in, immediately shifting into self-preservation mode.

The little girl whimpered twice, reluctantly dragging her feet as she walked away, looking back with every step, as if expecting her father to regret sending her off.

“Yu Yuanyuan, come back!” The thunderous voice boomed from the study.

“I knew it! Daddy can’t bear to part with Yuan…” She proudly placed her hands on her hips and wobbled back, but before she could finish her sentence, she was cut off.

“Take the chair with you.”

Yu Yuanyuan: “…” Daddy is so heartless and cold.

The little figure wobbled back to the study.

At her height, she could just barely see the surface of the desk, and only part of the computer screen. The business partner on the other side of the video call could spot a fuzzy little head and a pair of wide, curious eyes peeking up.

Standing on her tiptoes, Yu Yuanyuan tried to make herself more noticeable. She clung to the edge of the desk, waving at the screen. “Uncle, Daddy kicked Yuanyuan out. Yuanyuan is leaving now!”

“Hahaha, goodbye, little one!” The man on the screen chuckled warmly, waving back at her. His other hand subtly clicked the mouse, capturing a screenshot of this adorable moment.

Carrying her light plastic stool, Yu Yuanyuan walked out reluctantly, grumbling to herself as she went, “Yuanyuan is so bored by herself…”

“Click.” The door to the study closed mercilessly behind her.

Not only that, she even heard the sound of the lock turning.

What? Daddy actually locked the door!!

The little girl’s eyes widened in shock.

She couldn’t believe it. She tried turning the knob a few times, but it wouldn’t open.

Sniffling, Yuanyuan was heartbroken. Daddy didn’t want her anymore.

Dejected, she pushed the stool back to its original place. Her round, chubby figure waddled slowly and sadly back to her room.

In his room, Yu Mingxi, who always excelled in his studies, was focused and efficient as usual. But today, he felt a bit restless.

The thought of little Yuanyuan alone in her room made him speed up, eager to finish his homework so he could go and play with her.

Stuffing his completed work back into his bag, Yu Mingxi didn’t even bother zipping it up before he rushed to the pink door. He knocked, “Yuanyuan, are you asleep?”

Happy footsteps pattered inside, and the door swung open. “Yuanyuan is not asleep yet!”

“Are you bored? Want me to play with you?”

“Yes, yes!”

With a cheer, Yuanyuan pushed her brother inside. The two of them, one tall and one small, sat on the floor and stared at the new toys they had just bought.

The problem wasn’t a lack of toys—it was that Aunt Chen and Yu Jinxiao had bought so many…

But at Yuanyuan’s age, without someone to explain or guide her, these toys were little more than decorations.

After skimming through a few instruction manuals, Yu Mingxi opened up a game set that was suitable for Yuanyuan.

As he passed by, Yu Yingze overheard his sister’s silly giggles mixed with their brother’s voice from her room.

Curiosity got the better of him, and he quietly crept over. Gently pushing the door open with his finger, he peeked through the gap.

Inside, Yuanyuan had a small stand set up, with pictures of various animals stuck to it.

Right now, she was pointing at a picture of a puppy, mimicking a teacher’s serious tone as she instructed Yu Mingxi, “This is a ‘shu-gou!’”

Yu Yingze was speechless.

Such… flawless mispronunciation.
