Chapter 310: Chapter 310 The five-day agreement expires_1

Xu Fan took Tongtong to the car, and in a whirlwind ride, they arrived at the entrance of Xinghai Media in less than twenty minutes.

It was now close to eight o’clock, with the street lights just coming on. In Xinghai Entertainment, many people had already finished work, but the lights were still on in Xu Yixue’s presidential office.

Only a solitary security guard was left at the entrance, and the sprightly receptionist was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Fan didn’t go upstairs, but sent a WeChat message to Xu Yixue, and then sat in the car with Tongtong, waiting for her.

About ten minutes later, Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning came down from the building, clutching two stacks of documents.

Xu Fan wound down the car window and waved at Xu Yixue, who also saw him and walked shoulder to shoulder with Ye Xiaoning to the front of Xu Fan’s car.

After getting into the car, Xu Yixue stretched languidly and then affectionately tousled her beloved daughter’s little head, “Baby, did you miss mommy?”

“Tongtong missed mommy so much. To wait for mommy for dinner, Tongtong’s tummy is all flat from hunger,” Tongtong said, childishly patting her little belly.

“Haha, what would I do if my little treasure got starved,” Xu Yixue said tenderly, rubbing Tongtong’s little tummy.

“Tongtong wants to eat with mommy, otherwise the food doesn’t taste nice,” Tongtong said, pouting cutely.

Upon hearing Tongtong’s words, a warm current flowed through Xu Yixue’s heart.

This little darling was truly heartwarming.

In the driver’s seat, Xu Fan smiled slowly at the corners of his mouth at Tongtong’s words, thinking to himself that this little one was a mischievously endearing little devil.

She hadn’t been seen eating with Xu Yixue at lunch today, yet she ate more deliciously than anyone else.

“Mommy, today daddy took me to win the championship at the community sports meet, oh. There were so many people watching, Tongtong felt so impressive,” Tongtong recalled the morning’s events, saying excitedly to Xu Yixue, her little eyes shining with pride.

“What? My Tongtong actually won the championship, that’s amazing!” Xu Yixue was genuinely astonished to hear what Tongtong said.

Since Tongtong had always been physically frail since she was young and was just a little girl, Xu Yixue had only signed her up with the intention of participating for fun. To think, Tongtong had actually won the parent-child sports meet, which was something Xu Yixue couldn’t have even dared to imagine.

However, thinking of Xu Fan’s miraculous abilities, Xu Yixue felt somewhat relieved.

Xu Fan, after all, had once boldly ridden with Tongtong through the zoo, even atop pandas and polar bears, and when it came to fighting, he could single-handedly take on a dozen men. If Tongtong had gone to the sports meet alone, she might not have won, but for some reason, the community decided to have a parent-child sports event that day.

Originally, Xu Yixue thought she had no chance at the parent-child sports event, and it just so happened that there were issues at the company these last few days, so she had Xu Fan, the doting dad, take Tongtong to the event instead.

The outcome, as one could guess, was outstanding; led by the prodigious Xu Fan, Tongtong had actually won the championship. This news brought a measure of joy to Xu Yixue.

The honors earned by a daughter perhaps matter the most to the parents.

“Tongtong is awesome; you will become even greater in the future, keep it up!” Xu Yixue said tenderly, patting Tongtong’s little hand.

Watching the two of them enjoying their happy time together, Xu Fan too felt a touch of happiness, but then he remembered something even more serious.

The five-day agreement with Xu Yixue, today, is the last day.

“Xu Fan, thank you!” Xu Yixue saw the pride and satisfaction on Tongtong’s face and suddenly felt that having someone like Xu Fan to take care of the child seemed quite good.

“Don’t mention it, Tongtong is my child after all. I only regret that I haven’t given her enough,” Xu Fan said lightly.

Although his tone was light, the deep love that flowed through his words was something that couldn’t be concealed no matter what.

Xu Yixue seemed to be infected by Xu Fan as well and took hold of Tongtong’s warm little hand.

She had never experienced the happiness of someone picking up the slack when she worked late or being busy with work and having someone else take care of her child. Now she felt it all at once, and suddenly her heart felt warm.

Inside the car now, Xu Fan was focusing intently on driving, Ye Xiaoning was looking at stock market curves on her phone, Little Tongtong was indulging in the thrill of victory and was uncontrollably joyous, only Xu Yixue felt an atmosphere drastically different from usual here.

That was a sense of familial warmth.

Xu Yixue sat in the car, shaking off the fatigue of a day’s work, and quietly watched Xu Fan focus on driving, and suddenly realized that Xu Fan had indeed become very competent.

Impeccable in appearance, unfathomable in ability, and utterly indulgent towards his daughter.

Xu Yixue found, to her surprise, that the support she had been searching for had come full circle and still ended up being Xu Fan.

Xu Fan, sitting in the front seat focused on driving, had no idea that Xu Yixue’s thoughts had taken such a turn in such a short time.

After arriving at Kowloon New City, Xu Fan called everyone to get out of the car and noticed that Xu Yixue was looking at him differently.

“What’s the matter?” Xu Fan felt Xu Yixue was a bit strange tonight, not having the unreasonable attitude towards him she used to have, as if something wasn’t quite right.

“Nothing, just a bit tired,” Xu Yixue said with a bit of a shock and in a somewhat concealing manner when she heard Xu Fan’s question.

Although Xu Yixue’s impression of Xu Fan had greatly improved, and even occasionally she would think of the happy scene with herself, Xu Fan, and Tongtong living together.

But as soon as she remembered that Xu Fan had left her for several years without any contact, Xu Yixue felt anger rising in her heart again.

She couldn’t just accept Xu Fan that easily. Where would that leave my face, Xu Yixue?

Xu Yixue thought to herself firmly, and then her gaze towards Xu Fan returned to its usual aloof and domineering look.

Xu Fan saw Xu Yixue blink, returning to her usual expression, so he smiled at her ingratiatingly and asked, “Yixue, our five-day agreement is up today, do you think we should renew it?”

“Oh yeah, you reminding me, I almost forgot,” Xu Yixue slapped her forehead, saying somewhat absentmindedly.

You can’t really blame Xu Yixue; it was just that Xinghai Media was facing such thorny issues now, how she could remember the five-day agreement with Xu Fan? She was now worried about not having enough hands on deck, with no one to help her with the child.

“Crap!” Xu Fan also slapped his forehead, if only he had known she had forgotten, he wouldn’t have foolishly reminded her.
