Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Small Hands (3)

The trip to the research institute in Beijing was for two days. The night before she left, Fu Ting was packing her luggage at home.

The research institute had strict regulations and no one was allowed to bring their family or friends. Fu Ting was alone and did not bring much. She only brought two sets of clothes and basic daily necessities.

Fu Pei had one hand in his pocket, and his tall and slender body leaned against the door. His dark eyes fell on the little girl’s thin body, and his slightly drooping eyelashes hid his emotions.

She asked casually,” The capital is so big. Aren’t you afraid of going to an unfamiliar city alone?”

Fu Ting said gently,” I’m not afraid. Besides, I’m not the only one. There are other selected students from other schools going with me.””

The main purpose of her trip to Beijing was to meet with Fu Sixing to discuss a deal.

Under the light, the little girl’s eyes were filled with anticipation and excitement. Fu Pei’s usually clear and arrogant eyes were suddenly covered with a hint of coldness and impatience.

He was actually quite worried. He was worried that Little Fool would not come back after seeing the scenery of the big city. After all, with Little Fool’s current strength, she could move away. There was no need for her to stay and live a poor life with him.

Fu Pei’s breathing became narrower and narrower. He tugged at his collar with one hand and said,” I’m going to the supermarket to buy a bottle of vinegar.”” He turned around and left.

*

Fu Pei arrived at the supermarket and took out a bottle of vinegar from the shelf. When he turned around, he saw a five-year-old girl hugging a middle-aged man’s thigh. Her little voice was coy as she called out,” Daddy, hug me.””

“Aiyo, Daddy’s good daughter.” The middle-aged man held the little girl in his arms with one hand and rubbed his daughter’s hair affectionately.

The little girl said coquettishly,” Daddy, I got first place in school. You have to give me a reward!”

The middle-aged man doted on her.” My good daughter is so good. What reward do you want?””

The little girl counted with her fingers.” I want to eat a lot of sweets and snacks…”

Fu Pei stood where he was and watched the interaction between the father and daughter. He only lowered his head when the father and daughter left, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly.

*

Fu Pei carried two big bags of things and ran back home. He stuffed a handful of candy into Fu Ting’s hand clumsily.” Fu Ting, here’s some candy.””

Fu Ting was stunned. Before she could react, the young man stuffed a bunch of snacks into her hands.” There’s also chocolate, egg yolks, potato chips, peach cakes…”

Fu Ting was pleasantly surprised. Her eyes curved into a smile.” Daddy, why did you buy me so many snacks?””

Fu Pei suddenly hugged the little girl when he met her eyes that were brighter than the stars.

Fu Ting was stunned. She felt a weight on her shoulder, and the young man’s side profile was pressed against her ear. His buzz cut made her neck itch, and a scent that made her feel at ease drifted into her nose.

In the next second.

His Adam’s apple quivered slightly on her neck. His clear, low, and tired voice had a mesmerizing sexiness to it.” Little Fu Ting is the most outstanding child in the world. How can she not be rewarded?”

“Dad, what’s wrong?”

Fu Ting was more surprised than happy because Fu Pei rarely praised her like this.

Fu Pei’s deep brows twitched. He did not know what was wrong with him. He only thought that Little Fool’s dead father did not treat her well at all. If he treated her better, would Little Fool not be willing to leave him?

The next morning, the school sent a car to take Fu Ting to the airport.

Before she left, Fu Ting nagged Fu Pei,” Dad, I’ve prepared lunch boxes for you for two days. They’re in the fridge. Remember to eat on time.””

Fu Pei pretended to be disgusted as he listened. However, the moment Fu Ting turned around, his eyes dimmed slightly.

“Fu Xiaoting, give me your hand.”

Fu Ting heard hurried footsteps behind her. She turned around when she reached the door.

In the morning light, the young man’s expression was unnatural. His eyelids drooped slowly and his jaw was tense.

Fu Ting obediently extended her hands.

Fu Pei first placed the latest mobile phone on Fu Ting’s left hand, then placed another one on her right hand. It was obvious that he had drawn a simple map himself.

The young man’s eyes were dark and mesmerizing. He stared at the little girl’s fair and beautiful face for a few seconds and snorted casually.” Little Dumb Fu, the journey is long. Don’t forget the way home.””
