Chapter 809 Zhouzhou is Sold
"Yay!" Zhouzhou instantly perked up, waving her little hands and climbing onto her seat, proudly puffing out her little belly as she munched on sunflower seeds. She shook her tiny fists and cheered, "Daddy, go for it! Knock that bad uncle down!"
That little chubby girl! A true traitor!
Watching Ye Lingfeng approach with his imposing aura, Li Huan couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed. But retreating was out of the question. After all, he had waited a long time for this day.
Ye Lingfeng looked at him and said, "You rest for a bit; I won't take advantage of you."
"No need. I just warmed up; I'm all fired up now. Let's go!" Li Huan replied, raising his chin defiantly.
Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng didn't say anything more and directly launched an attack. He was tall, had long legs, and was physically stronger than Zhouzhou. As soon as they clashed, Li Huan felt a tremendous pressure.
He didn't feel nervous, but rather exhilarated, pouring all his strength into the fight.
Zhouzhou watched from the side, occasionally clapping her hands and forgetting to eat her seeds. "Wow, Daddy is so strong!" she exclaimed.
After saying this, she glanced at Li Huan and mumbled, "That bad uncle is pretty strong too."
He could hold his own against her dad.
Whenever her dad sparred with her, he never used his full strength. But this time, he was giving it his all.
Zhouzhou rested her chin in her hands, mesmerized as she focused on the duel, stealing glances at Li Huan.
Seeing this, Commander and Xi Mo exchanged amused looks.
The little girl was being a bit contradictory, but her eyes were quite honest.
In the end, Li Huan was slightly outmatched and lost. He looked at Ye Lingfeng, breathing a bit heavily, but his eyes sparkled with admiration. "You're really strong; I concede."
Finally getting to fight him had fulfilled a long-held wish.
Ye Lingfeng's face showed a rare smile. "You're not bad yourself."
"As for that matter, I'll agree to it," he added, referring to Li Huan wanting to be Zhouzhou's master.
Li Huan's eyes lit up instantly. He turned to the little chubby girl, who was intently watching them, and grinned mischievously.
Zhouzhou, who was listening to them, suddenly met Li Huan's gaze and looked confused, tilting her head in curiosity.
Li Huan walked over, playfully tugging at her hair tips, and teasingly said, "Little chubby girl, your daddy sold you to me. He agreed to let me be your master, so why don't you hurry up and get me a glass of water?"
Zhouzhou: "???"
She felt like she was suddenly caught in a whirlwind. The little chubby girl was momentarily stunned.
She looked up at Ye Lingfeng, her lips pouting. The sunflower seeds she had just cracked dropped from her mouth as she asked pitifully, "Daddy, you sold me?"
"Aren't I your favorite cub?"
Zhouzhou's lips quivered, and she opened her mouth, ready to cry.
Zhouzhou curiously picked it up and asked, "Uncle, what is this?"
Li Huan glanced at it, smirking slightly, knowing she would love it.
"This is agate. Isn't it pretty? The braised pork you love is also called agate meat. Don't they look alike?"
They really did!
Zhouzhou gazed at it in wonder, increasingly enamored. She couldn't help but swallow.
Suddenly, recalling something, she looked up at him, her face filled with grievance. "Uncle, you made me miss out on braised pork earlier!"
Li Huan: "......"
"Tomorrow, I'll make it up to you. Is that okay? I'll have them prepare a whole pot for you so you can eat your fill."
Hearing this, he felt a headache coming on.
It was just a few pieces of meat; when would she get over it?
Seeing his reaction, Zhouzhou huffed, a cunning glint in her eyes.
Hmph! Let him mock her short legs again.
She had a good memory!
Li Huan noticed the mischievous expression on her face and chuckled, pinching her chubby cheeks. "So, what do you say? Just like your uncle said, I don't have children. With this job, I probably won't live to see the day my children being born. If you become my disciple, all these things could belong to you one day, as inheritance."
Originally, he thought the little money-grubber would be thrilled.
But unexpectedly, Zhouzhou's expression changed, and she shoved the agate back into his hands, taking two steps back with a look of rejection. "I don't want your inheritance!"
She still remembered the day she saw Ye Lingfeng's will.
What she wanted was their affection; she didn't want their inheritance.
Thinking about that scene made Zhouzhou's eyes redden.
Seeing her like this, Li Huan was taken aback for a moment, then slowly smiled.
He squatted down, meeting Zhouzhou's gaze, and said with a hint of emotion, "I didn't expect you to like me that much."
Zhouzhou huffed again, stubbornly retorting, "Who likes you? I just don't like hearing that word!"
She pouted, refusing to admit it.
Li Huan, however, wore an expression that seemed to see right through her, sighing dramatically as he clutched his chest in a feigned pitiful manner. "It can't be helped. With this job, you know how dangerous it is. Who knows when I might not come back?"
"The worst part is that I won't even have an heir to leave everything to. I don't know who to leave so many things to."
"Alas."
