Chapter 14

"Sure enough, you came."

Lin Fan shook his head, walked to the door, and pulled it open.

As soon as the door opened, Lin Fan saw a tall, curvaceous, and stunningly beautiful woman standing outside.

She looked to be around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with clear, bright light purple eyes, two arched eyebrows, and long eyelashes that added much charm to her large eyes. Her flawless skin had a faint rosy hue, and her thin lips were as alluring as rose petals. Her long, jet-black, wavy hair was casually draped over her back.

A well-fitted OL suit perfectly outlined her graceful and well-proportioned figure, with her ample chest almost spilling out, and the alluring cleavage even more captivating.

She wore a black pencil skirt that accentuated her slender waist and firm, rounded buttocks, and her legs, which were white and straight, were clad in black leather boots, making them appear even more slender and long.

On her left wrist, she wore a silver-white Cartier watch, and in her right hand, she carried a classic Hermes Kelly bag. With the addition of earrings and other jewelry, Lin Fan could determine that her outfit was worth no less than one million.

Coupled with her stunning figure and beautiful face, tsk tsk tsk, priceless.

Even with Lin Fan's three thousand years of experience in the cultivation world, he couldn't help but be amazed. Ling Xuefei's appearance and figure were on par with those so-called holy maidens and fairy maidens, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"Have you had enough?"

A cold and clear voice suddenly sounded.

"Cough, cough..." Lin Fan's face turned red, and he scolded himself for his lack of composure, having been momentarily entranced. He awkwardly touched his nose and asked, "Why did you suddenly come over?"

"Why did I suddenly come over?" Ling Xuefei repeated Lin Fan's question, then suddenly smiled. Her tone then turned cold and harsh, "Of course, I came to pick up my precious daughter!"

With that, Ling Xuefei walked past Lin Fan and entered the room. She immediately saw Qiqi, who was walking over. Qiqi also saw her, her eyes lit up, and she ran over with her short legs.

"Mommy..."

Qiqi's crisp "Mommy" instantly made Ling Xuefei put away all her sharpness. She hurriedly went forward, crouched down, and opened her arms to the little princess.

Qiqi, like a fledgling returning to the nest, threw herself into Ling Xuefei's arms. Ling Xuefei hadn't seen her little treasure for more than two days, and now, as she held Qiqi, her expression was very gentle, radiating a maternal glow. Her voice was much softer than when she spoke to Lin Fan: "Little treasure, did you miss Mommy?"

"Missed, missed, Qiqi really missed Mommy." Qiqi said happily, pouting and kissing Ling Xuefei's face, and asked in a muffled voice, "Did Mommy miss Qiqi?"

"Of course, Mommy missed Qiqi, so I came to take Qiqi home. Let's pack our things; Aunt An is waiting for us in the car." Ling Xuefei pinched Qiqi's little nose and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay!" Qiqi immediately jumped happily and, acting like a little adult, pulled Ling Xuefei's hand and headed upstairs.

Seeing this warm scene, Lin Fan sighed. Although he knew Ling Xuefei had come to take Qiqi away, he couldn't bear to interrupt them.

A few minutes later, Ling Xuefei appeared on the first floor, holding Qiqi, who was dressed and carrying her little backpack. Qiqi shouted to Lin Fan, who was standing by the coffee table with a blank expression, "Daddy, quickly change your coat, we're going home."

"Qiqi, your father has things to do and can't take care of you, so Mommy came to take you home." Ling Xuefei thought for a moment, unsure how to start, and finally said, biting her lip.

"Uh, I'm fine, I can take care of Qiqi." Lin Fan said directly.

"You!" Ling Xuefei immediately turned her head, her eyes filled with killing intent. If looks could kill, Lin Fan would have been torn to pieces.

"Uh uh... I don't want to, I don't want to... I want to stay with Daddy!"

When Qiqi heard that Mommy was taking her home alone and separating her from Daddy, she immediately started crying and struggling in Ling Xuefei's arms, reaching out her little arms to Lin Fan for a hug.

Seeing Qiqi's tearful face, Lin Fan's heart trembled. He quickly walked forward, picked up Qiqi, and gently rocked her to comfort her.

"Qiqi, don't cry, Daddy is here. Daddy will still be your little princess's guardian knight..."

Seeing Lin Fan comfort Qiqi, Ling Xuefei felt a mix of emotions, and a sense of worry welled up. Qiqi had only been with Lin Fan for less than three days, yet she was already so dependent on him. If she stayed longer, wouldn't it be even harder to separate them?

Actually, this was normal. Qiqi had never experienced fatherly love before, and now she had a father who doted on her. Naturally, she would be especially dependent on Lin Fan. But the more Ling Xuefei thought about it, the more dangerous it seemed. Qiqi was her everything, and she would never allow anyone to take her away, not even her father!

Ling Xuefei clenched her teeth, balled her fists, and glared at Lin Fan with a clear threat.

But who was Lin Fan? In his previous life, he was a mighty Immortal Lord who dominated the cultivation world. In this life, he was the eldest son of one of the four major families in Huaguo and one of the four young masters of Yang'an. He was fearless, and he wouldn't be easily intimidated by Ling Xuefei.

"Can we go home together, Daddy?" Under Lin Fan's comfort, Qiqi finally stopped crying, but her eyes were still teary, and her pitiful appearance made people feel sympathetic.

"Is it uncomfortable living here with Daddy?" Lin Fan put on a very aggrieved look, which immediately frightened Qiqi. She thought Daddy was angry and quickly shook her head, saying, "Comfortable, comfortable, Qiqi really likes it here."

"Then let's stay here, okay?" Lin Fan reached out and gently wiped away the tears from Qiqi's eyes, smiling, "In the future, Daddy will buy lots of dolls for Qiqi to put in the room, and we'll get a cute dog to play with Qiqi, and there will be lots of delicious food and toys..."

"Wow!" Hearing Lin Fan's words, Qiqi's eyes immediately brightened, as if she could see the dolls and the dog right in front of her. She said happily, "Qiqi likes dolls, and Qiqi likes dogs."

"Ha ha, whatever Qiqi likes, Daddy will give you."

"Okay, let's make a pinky promise."

Qiqi nodded solemnly and extended her little hand to Lin Fan.

"Okay, pinky promise."

Lin Fan smiled and extended his hand, hooking it with Qiqi's.

"Pinky promise, no breaking for a hundred years..." Qiqi's hand was too small, so she held Lin Fan's pinky finger with her whole hand, saying in a baby voice.

Seeing that Lin Fan had calmed Qiqi down, Ling Xuefei felt a bit relieved, but her sense of crisis grew stronger. It was the feeling of something precious about to be taken away. Ling Xuefei felt a bit anxious and quickly said, "I'm taking my daughter with me today."

"Take her away? I'm her father, and I don't agree. No one can take my daughter away!" Lin Fan countered.

"Qiqi was born and raised by me. Apart from the blood relation, what have you done? Now you say you're her father, on what grounds!" Hearing Lin Fan's words, Ling Xuefei immediately became like a cat with its tail stepped on, her voice becoming sharp.
