The sky was ablaze with sunset, like a painting colored with crayons.
Golden twilight spread across the wooden boards of the pavilion, half illuminating the room and half shining on the railing.
At that moment, Chi Yu was holding his daughter as they arrived at the doorstep, and he looked up to see Gu Yuan coming out of the house. Her visage was so beautiful and gentle that Chi Yu slowed his steps, watching her: "Where are you headed?"
Gu Yuan replied, "To pick you up."
He thought she was joking. Perhaps after being scolded today, he felt her gentleness was just a facade.
Sure enough, as the pain from the twist of his arm reached his central nervous system, he couldn't hold his expression together as he had hoped. He opened his mouth, bared his teeth, hissed, and finally shouted—
"Ouch!"
It truly hurt.
Suisui, nestled in Chi Yu's arms, perfectly mimicked Chi Yu's expression: "┗|｀O′|┛ Ow, it hurts~~"
Chi Yu: "..."
This was his own daughter.
Don't get angry.
