Xu Fan turned his head to see a small security guard with his cap askew approach from the entrance, looking imposing enough to fix Xu Fan in place.
“Who’s causing trouble here? Jiajia, beauty, I’ve come to protect you!” The small security guard announced as he made his way to the receptionist with a triumphant gait.
Xu Fan looked at the security guard with a hint of helplessness and spoke coldly, “It was your boss Xu who allowed me to come up, so what are you shouting about?”
“Damn it, kid, do you know that I am the Gatekeeper of Xinghai Media? If you want to make trouble here, you have to get past me first!” The small security guard bent his scrawny arm, making a muscle-flexing gesture at Xu Fan, which was comical due to his skinny arms.
“If you don’t let me go up now, don’t come begging me to go up later!” Xu Fan said, his expression growing colder as he spoke slowly to the small security guard.
“Damn! Do you think the Xinghai Security Captain is here just for show? Let me tell you, as long as I’m standing here, you can forget about going up.” The guard felt emboldened seeing the receptionist girl watching him and spoke arrogantly to Xu Fan.
“Alright,” Xu Fan nodded, shaking Tongtong in his arms, “Shall we wait a bit before going up?”
“But Tongtong really wants to see Mommy now…” Tongtong pursed her lips, sounding pitiful.
Just then, the elevator doors at the back of the lobby slowly opened, and Ye Xiaoning walked out briskly.
“Auntie! Auntie!” Tongtong immediately spotted Ye Xiaoning and began waving her arms frantically towards her.
Ye Xiaoning also quickly stepped up to Xu Fan, catching the elf-like Tongtong in her arms with affection, hugging her warmly.
“Let’s go, Xu told you to come up,” Ye Xiaoning said to Xu Fan.
Xu Fan glanced at the small security guard, still posturing at the side, and drawled, “But this gentleman said, as long as he’s here, I can’t go up.”
Ye Xiaoning’s gaze fastened onto the small security guard.
“Ye Assistant, I… I… I was uninformed!” The security guard broke out in a cold sweat, regretting that he had spoken so harshly to show off in front of the receptionist girl, only to see the personal assistant to Xu Yixue, Ye Xiaoning, picking up the little girl shortly after.
Moreover, the little girl was calling Ye Xiaoning “Auntie.”
The security guard was completely dumbfounded. Could this little girl really be Xu’s daughter?
The receptionist girl also watched Xu Fan in disbelief.
Just moments ago, Tongtong had been calling Xu Fan “Daddy,” and she couldn’t believe that a goddess-like beauty like Xu Yixue could already have a child, and that child’s father was standing right in front of her.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it’s my fault for not verifying with Xu immediately,” the receptionist girl hurriedly apologized to Xu Fan, fearing his anger might fall on her.
“Big brother, I was wrong. I’m just a jerk with a bad eye, it wasn’t on purpose. Please, spare me this once,” the small security guard approached Xu Fan with a defeated expression. Thinking back on his previous threats, he wished to throttle himself on the spot.
“You need to be more careful in your work in the future, you must not be so reckless again!” Ye Xiaoning sternly scolded them both.
“Understood!”
“Got it!”
The receptionist girl and the small security guard both answered Ye Xiaoning with bowed heads.
“Okay, let’s hurry up,” Ye Xiaoning urged Xu Fan.
Xu Fan raised an eyebrow, thinking that since it was Xu Yixue’s company, he didn’t mind, as long as Tongtong wasn’t mistreated.
Having thought that, he shook his head and followed Ye Xiaoning towards the elevator with a nonchalant air.
“Does Tongtong miss your auntie?” Ye Xiaoning asked gently, cradling Tongtong in her arms.
“Miss, miss, Tongtong really misses auntie,” Tongtong’s little head buried in Ye Xiaoning’s shoulder, said softly to her.
“Daddy, hurry up, we’re going to get on the elevator!” Tongtong waved to Xu Fan trailing behind and urged him on.
Xu Fan quickly moved up to Ye Xiaoning’s side and gently squeezed Tongtong’s plump little hand.
Once in the elevator, Ye Xiaoning, holding Tongtong, didn’t have a free hand and said flatly to Xu Fan, “Press the button for the eighth floor.”
Xu Fan extended his hand to press the elevator button and then quietly waited for the elevator to rise.
With a “ding,” the elevator doors opened, and just as Ye Xiaoning, holding Tongtong, stepped out, they saw a charming beauty standing outside the elevator.
She was in a professional suit, slender and graceful, with skin like cream and features like a painting—none other than Xu Yixue.
Seeing Xu Yixue standing at the hallway entrance, Tongtong let out an excited shriek, wriggled out of Ye Xiaoning’s arms, and rushed into Xu Yixue’s embrace with small, quick steps, like a swallow returning to the nest.
“Mommy! Tongtong missed you so much!” Tongtong nestled in Xu Yixue’s arms, murmuring.
“My sweet baby! Mommy missed you too,” Xu Yixue hugged Tongtong tightly and kissed her forehead gently.
Some of the passing employees in the hallway stole curious glances at Xu Yixue.
Xu Yixue has always been known for her swift and cold, gorgeous CEO demeanor, and the staff at Xinghai Media had never seen her holding a cute little child, overflowing with maternal love—it was almost a complete reversal of their image of the aloof CEO.
“What are you looking at? Get back to work,” Ye Xiaoning said coldly from the side, and the employees in the hallway immediately straightened up, quickly returning to their workstations.
“Hmph! It’s all because of you, Xu Fan, bringing our Tongtong to the office to stir up a fuss. Now lots of people are paying attention, and if they start gossiping, you’ll have ruined Yixue’s image!” Ye Xiaoning complained to Xu Fan under her breath.
“What, a CEO can’t have children?” Xu Fan replied flatly to Ye Xiaoning.
“You…” Ye Xiaoning was fuming with frustration, thinking what’s with this sarcastic tone, has Missy here said something wrong?
“Xiao Ning, don’t be angry, it’s okay.” Holding Tongtong and rubbing her own cheek against the little girl’s face, Xu Yixue felt nothing but warmth at that moment, and even Xu Fan, this annoyingly straightforward man, didn’t seem so bad anymore.
“Tongtong, come on, Mommy will take you to see the office,” said Xu Yixue, getting to her feet and holding Tongtong securely, ready to head to her own office.
Tongtong, however, shook her head with pride and asked, “Mommy, does Tongtong’s dress look pretty today?”
“Of course, it’s pretty. My daughter looks beautiful in everything!” Xu Yixue happily told Tongtong.
“Haha, Daddy, come quick, Mommy said the dress you bought for Tongtong is pretty,” Tongtong winked mischievously at Xu Fan.
Xu Fan raised his eyebrows, his face a picture of helplessness.
