He really wants to devour her, but now isn’t the right time. He wants to give her a perfect life! He doesn’t want her life to have any blemishes.

...

Only recently did Qiao Qiqi learn that ever since Nuonuo met her cousin, Qiao Xi, she has always wanted to see her. So Third Brother had to explain the situation to Qiao Xi and ask her to accompany Nuonuo for a while. Now it’s even better; Nuonuo knows Qiao Xi Auntie works at Dad’s company and keeps asking the driver to take her to the company to find Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi has practically become the young lady’s full-time nanny. Old Mr. Rong, being the doting grandfather he is, naturally has everyone send the child over.

Especially since Nuonuo started spending time with Qiao Xi, her personality is indeed much more cheerful than before.

Today, Qiao Xi had to work overtime, and Nuonuo refused to leave, insisting on waiting for her to finish work. By the time Qiao Xi finished, the little one was already lying on the sofa asleep.

Qiao Xi quickly came over to pick her up and intended to send her back to the Rong Family’s nanny car.

As she walked out, she nearly bumped into someone. Looking up, she was surprised to see Rong Xun, and she quickly greeted him softly, "Mr. Rong."

"Fallen asleep?" Rong Xun patted his daughter’s head and said, "Let me carry her."

"No, it’s fine. I can carry her," Qiao Xi insisted that she could manage.

But in reality, six-year-old Rong Nuonuo was already over forty pounds, and carrying her was indeed quite taxing.

"You’ve worked hard today too. Don’t overexert; let me handle it," Rong Xun reached out to take his daughter.

Qiao Xi quickly let go and awkwardly stepped back.

"It’s been hard on you lately, balancing work and taking care of her. I’ll try to tell her not to disturb you every day," Rong Xun said as he turned and walked out, speaking as he went.

"No need, it’s alright, as long as you don’t dock my pay," Qiao Xi replied, half-jokingly.

"Nuonuo is becoming brighter and happier. I can’t thank you enough. It’s just that she’s interrupting your work too much. I heard you have a new project you’re rushing to finish. How’s it going?" Although Rong Xun and Qiao Xi worked in the same building, they were quite far apart, and someone of Rong Xun’s rank typically wouldn’t interact with Qiao Xi.

"I’m rushing, it’s almost done," Qiao Xi responded with a smile.

"That’s good."

The two walked out of the company doors, one after the other. Seeing Third Young Master personally carrying the little miss out, the servants hurried over to take the child, but Rong Xun avoided them and gestured to Qiao Xi, "Get in the car; I’ll drop you at your place."

"No need, it’s no trouble. I can take a taxi back," Qiao Xi quickly declined.

"Get in the car," Rong Xun’s tone instinctively carried authority, the kind of domineering typical of someone in power, prompting Qiao Xi to swiftly get in the car.

Only after getting into the car did Qiao Xi realize, what on earth did she just do?!!!

But it was too late for regrets as Rong Xun, holding Nuonuo, also got in the car. Once inside, Rong Xun carefully adjusted his daughter’s sleeping position to make her more comfortable.

Qiao Xi thought Mr. Rong is truly an amazing dad.

Nuonuo is also a fortunate child.

"Mr. Rong, please continue to let Nuonuo come to me. She’s very well-behaved and usually plays by herself, without bothering me. I’ve gotten used to taking care of her. Without her, I might not even adjust well," Qiao Xi said softly, reaching out to gently stroke Nuonuo’s fluffy hair. 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

"If it doesn’t bother you, that’s great. I’ll take you out to dinner this weekend as a thank you for all your help," Rong Xun responded in a deep voice.
