"But the most important thing is, Mommy must be happy, and Mommy must like him!"
He looked up, gazing into Little Youyou’s sparkling eyes.
"Before, when I saw other kids had daddies and I didn’t, I really wanted one. Later, Brother told not to say this to Mommy because it would make her unhappy. And, if a daddy can’t make Mommy happy, then what’s the point of having one?" Little Youyou said earnestly, "So I must find a daddy who can make Mommy happy!"
Gu Annan pondered, "Is that all it takes?"
"I have another request," Little Youyou raised his hand.
"Go ahead," Gu Annan responded.
"I hope the new daddy won’t abandon us. My brother and I are very well-behaved," Little Youyou said with wide eyes full of hope. "But Uncle, you wouldn’t do that, right?"
So n liked Mommy, but they disappeared after seeing she had two children, even though Mommy hadn’t agreed to be with them.
"Never!" His voice was gentle yet resolute, "Absolutely not."
"Pinky promise!" Little Youyou imdiately extended his finger.
Gu Annan looked at the chubby little hand reaching out and extended his own hand too.
"Okay then," Little Youyou was reassured. "Although Brother said you’re out of the running, I’ll cast my vote for you!"
"Then... can Uncle have a small request?" he negotiated softly. "How about calling daddy in advance?"
"No way!" Little Youyou refused rcilessly.
Gu Annan raised an eyebrow in surprise. Didn’t the child like him quite a bit?
"Why not?" he asked curiously, asserting, "I can et all your requests, so it’s only a matter of ti before I beco your daddy."
Little Youyou looked at him, "Uncle, I’ve heard that ’sooner or later I’ll be your daddy’ before."
His face darkened.
"I’ve heard it from more than one person. But Mommy said, don’t call anyone daddy on a whim. So before Mommy gives permission, nobody can be called that!"
His expression imdiately softened, his eyebrows arching higher with interest, "What about these n? Does your mommy like them?"
"She doesn’t," Little Youyou said worriedly. "She’s very picky, doesn’t like this one, doesn’t like that one."
Gu Annan’s lips quirked up at an angle, "Your mommy is very good."
Little Youyou suddenly beca very curious. "Uncle, do you... know my mommy?"
"Yes, I’ve known your mommy for a very long ti. From about when I was your age," he revealed.
Little Youyou almost jumped in excitent, becoming very animated, "Really, Uncle? But I’ve never heard Mommy ntion you!"
"She pretends to have forgotten ," soone shalessly claid.
"Is that so?"
Gu Annan affectionately pinched her little nose, his voice betraying a hint of lancholy.
"It was my carelessness that lost her. Would you help Uncle find her again?"

Zhao Chen ca today, having learned the exact whereabouts of Miss Lu.
After looking around the compound and not finding the young master, he went straight to their apartnt.
Standing at the door, he knocked.
Little Momo checked from the peephole—it was that uncle.
"I won’t open the door unless it’s my little sister who’s co ho."
Zhao Chen felt that it was best to speak straightforwardly with the young master, "Young Master, Gu is your biological father. It seems quite unfair to disqualify him without even talking to him!"
"Hmph, that’s not how other daddies talk!"
Zhao Chen felt indignant for his boss; his tone had already been very ’gentle’. Unfortunately, one can hardly change one’s nature!
