Xie Xize was not targeting anyone. He was simply telling the truth.

And yet, his cold, indifferent, and uncaring attitude was the deadliest. It implied that she was of no value in his heart.

No matter how hard she was trying to get his attention, there was still no spot for her in his eyes.

Wasn’t that infuriating?

He Xinyue’s face turned extremely pale. She had been chasing Xie Xize for several years. Many people already knew that a pretty, fair, and rich junior was chasing after Xie Xize.

However, He Xinyue clearly knew that Xie Xize had never bothered to look at her seriously.

He might look amiable on the surface, but his heart was icier and sturdier than anyone else’s. It was so sturdy that she could not find any opening to break through!

Xie Xize’s response had slightly improved Latiao’s impression of him.

Latiao said pitifully, “Daddy… you said it yourself… this aunty… isn’t too bad, but you shouldn’t make your decision so easily…” Latiao burped after finishing the sentence.

His appearance was a deadly weapon that could break through anyone’s defense. His cry was absolutely heartbreaking.

And yet… his words were heartrending, too.

Was he hinting that she was ugly when he said she was not “too bad”?

The others exchanged glances with one another. This little brat was insanely smart!

Meanwhile, Xie Xize seriously reflected on Latiao’s words. He nodded and said, “Alright.”

If Latiao’s words were stabbing He Xinyue in the heart, Xie Xize’s words were digging into her heart and piercing her bones.

He Xinyue’s lips trembled, “Se…senior…”

Xie Xize said coldly, “Do you mind stepping aside?”

Polite, courteous, estranged, apathetic; that was Xie Xize’s attitude toward He Xinyue.

He left, carrying Latiao in his arms.

Latiao rubbed against Xie Xize’s chest and wiped his tears on his shirt.

Xie Xize frowned, withholding the urge to fling Latiao to the ground. He was surprised by how good his temper was today.

He Xinyue watched the two leave. She noticed the kid poking his head out of Xie Xize’s arms and smiling at her.

The smile made He Xinyue’s blood run cold!

Mo Yangyang was not around when Xie Xize brought Latiao back to his ward.

“Why did you call me daddy?”

Latiao did not answer the question. He said, “I think you should be thanking me first. That aunty was conspiring against you. I have done you a huge favor. Shouldn’t you thank me first?”

Xie Xize’s lips curled upward, “Little guy, do you know what I’m asking?”

The kid might be young, but somehow, Xie Xize had a feeling that he was looking at a person of the same age.

Latiao opened his eyes wide and asked with an innocent look, “Uncle, what were you saying?”

The ‘daddy’ had turned into ‘uncle’ all of a sudden.

Xie Xize looked at him thoughtfully. He did not speak for a long time.

Latiao looked at Xie Xize in the eyes without giving in.

Meanwhile, Mo Yangyang was worriedly searching for her child in the hospital. She turned the corner when she stepped out of the elevator, and was almost scared to death when she saw the person standing in front of the ward.

The nightmare that was gone for five years had suddenly returned! Mo Yangyang subconsciously trembled in fear.

She saw Xie Xize putting Latiao on the ground. They both raised their hands to tidy the wrinkles on their shirts in synchronization.

Their actions were exactly the same!
