Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Fu Zhengting stared at Mu Tiantian's phone number, his mind filled with only one thought:

Block her!

If you just harden your heart and block her, cutting off all contact, you'll gradually forget about Mu Tiantian.

Time is the best healer; it can make people forget all unhappiness.

But for some reason, just as my finger was about to touch the screen, I felt a fear and couldn't bring myself to do it.

I kept telling myself not to be soft-hearted, but my hands just wouldn't obey me.

He was so angry he wanted to cut off his own finger!

If you can't bring yourself to delete it, it means you still have feelings for Mu Tiantian.

He tried to raise one hand to cover his eyes, but his hand wouldn't obey him and he couldn't press the button.

Fu Zhengting, you're hopeless!

He cursed himself inwardly and threw his phone onto the bed.

I changed into my sportswear and went outside, only to find Uncle Zhong cooking in the kitchen.

Hearing footsteps, Uncle Zhong turned to look at the door and smiled kindly at Fu Zhengting. "President, I'm a little hungry. I see there's a lot of food in the fridge, and I haven't had hot pot in a long time. Let's make some hot pot."

Wanting to surprise Fu Zhengting, she didn't tell him yet that Huo Qijun and his daughter would be coming.

Seeing that Fu Zhengting was wearing sportswear, he knew that Fu Zhengting was in a bad mood and had a habit of exercising, so he said, "You can eat right after you finish your workout."

Working alongside the CEO doesn't create the sense of distance that often exists between superiors and subordinates; it feels more like being with a father or son, or old friends.

Both he and Anan planned to follow the president wholeheartedly for the rest of their lives.

Looking at Uncle Zhong's kind, fatherly smile, Fu Zhengting felt a warm current flow through his heart. He gently hummed in agreement, "I've packed Mu Tiantian's clothes in a bag. Go in and get them for her when you're done."

Not wanting Uncle Zhong to see his awkward expression, she quickly went down the stairs.

Uncle Zhong took a few steps to the doorway and peeked inside to see Fu Zhengting's back. He smiled knowingly.

Actually, the president wasn't angry at Mu Tiantian, he was angry at himself.

It's rare for a CEO to like a girl so much; he can't just give up like that.

However, the president is a decisive person with clear likes and dislikes, so this conflict needs to be resolved as soon as possible.

It would be bad if someone took advantage of our vulnerability.

He went back to the kitchen and continued washing the vegetables.

Fu Zhengting went to the gym on the first floor, put on boxing gloves, and started boxing.

Boxing is very physically demanding, and all he wanted to do was vent his frustration, so he kept hitting the punching bag faster and faster. In less than half an hour, his face was covered in sweat.

After pausing for a moment, the image of Mu Tiantian crossing her arms and proudly reciting those words flashed through my mind.

He punched the sandbag directly, and because he used a lot of force, the sandbag flew away.

He tried to distract himself, throwing punch after punch.

In the past, when I was in a bad mood, a little exercise and a good sweat would usually calm me down.

But this time, it's far from possible.

Even though I keep myself busy and expend physical energy, I still subconsciously remember Mu Tiantian's words.

And those tender scenes also surfaced in my mind.

He still has a deep desire to relive that passionate feeling.

The more he thought about it, the more awkward and uncomfortable he felt, and the harder he punched.

Finally, his entire upper body was soaked in sweat, and he leaned against the wall, panting heavily.

Uncle Chung knew that Huo Qijun was coming, so he deliberately left the electronic lock gate unlocked. When Huo Qijun arrived, he drove straight in and parked the car in the orchard.

He got out of the car and tried to open the car door for Xiaolinglong in the back seat. Xiaolinglong tried to push the door open herself, but at four and a half years old, she wasn't strong enough to open the door by herself. She pushed it twice but couldn't open it, and she puffed out her little face in annoyance.

The nanny, Sister Lian, who had come with her in the back seat, didn't rush to drive for her. She looked up and smiled at Huo Qijun through the car window.

Huo Qijun smiled helplessly yet indulgently, opened the car door, and took Xiao Linglong out.

"Daddy, put me down, I can walk by myself." Little Linglong's tone was a little anxious, and she struggled as she spoke.

She felt she could walk faster than her dad.

Huo Qijun always unconditionally fulfilled the little princess's requests. As soon as he put Xiao Linglong down, she was like a little duck released from its cage, running happily towards the house.

He followed her, smiling as he reminded her, "Watch where you're going, don't fall."

Sister Lian was afraid that Xiao Linglong would fall, so she quickened her pace to catch up with her.

The door on the first floor wasn't closed. Xiao Linglong had been here many times, so she remembered it clearly and went straight in.

Fu Zhengting started another round of boxing in the gym, using a method of increasing speed and exertion. He was so focused and engrossed in his boxing that he didn't even notice Xiao Linglong coming in and standing in front of the punching bag watching him.

Huo Qijun entered and coughed twice before he noticed someone was there.

When he saw Xiao Linglong, his dim eyes lit up.

His sportswear shirt was soaked with sweat, so he took it off and threw it aside; he was now shirtless.

Xiao Linglong grinned as she stared at Fu Zhengting's physique.

She loved watching Uncle Fu box; he was as powerful as Superman.

Fu Zhengting glanced at Xiao Linglong's adoring expression and gave a wry smile.

I don't know where this little girl learned that expression.

Despite his young age, he understands everything.

There was a time when the phrase "absolutely amazing" was very popular online. When a little girl was eating her favorite food, she would exclaim "absolutely amazing" while eating, which made the guy eating with her choke on his rice.

Little Linglong is precocious despite her small size. She has a lively and cheerful personality and a strong ability to imitate. She can readily quote anything that is popular on TV or the internet.

She's cute and pretty, and nobody dislikes her.

Especially when I was two years old, my face was chubby and my skin was as white as a peeled egg. It was smooth to the touch and soft to the touch. I wanted to kiss my face dozens of times a day until it was raw.

During that time, he loved going to the Huo family to help Huo Qijun take care of Xiao Linglong. When he carried her out on the street, she was so tiny and incredibly cute.

Unfortunately, the little girl became a bit picky about food after she turned three, and lost a lot of weight. Her face wasn't as chubby or soft as it used to be, but she's still very cute.

A lively and cheerful little girl like Xiaolinglong is truly lovable.

Especially her big, bright eyes, which sparkle when she cries, with glistening tears hanging from her long eyelashes, looking so pitiful and wronged. Even if she wasn't her biological father, he would feel his heart breaking.

The girl has big, adorable eyes. She looks so innocent when she looks at people, and he can't bring himself to be stern with her when she acts cute.

Mu Tiantian also has such big eyes.

He was initially drawn to Mu Tiantian's clear and innocent big eyes.

My first impression of him was that he was a naive and innocent person who was inexperienced in the ways of the world.

Looking back now, I just find that idea ridiculous.

With eyes that big, they don't even need to pretend to have them; they'll give you the illusion of something special.

Even now, when he thinks about it, he still doesn't want to believe it and subconsciously thinks that Mu Tiantian is a simple and pure person.
