After repeatedly knocking, the bedroom remained as silent as if no one were inside, and there were no more sounds.
Seeing this, Bai Tingfang had no choice but to instruct Sister Wang to pay close attention to the young master before she left for Bamboo Garden to find that old undying man.
To be honest, even she hadn’t anticipated the outcome of this incident. She had thought it was Ou Mufeng and her daughter playing tricks, but she never expected it to be related to that old man.
Green eyes? A monster?
Just because someone has green eyes, are they a monster?
Bai Tingfang truly couldn’t comprehend this logic. If that were the case, then what about those foreigners with blue or coffee-colored eyes? Are they monsters?
The more Bai Tingfang thought about it, the angrier she became, and hurried over.
Upon arriving at Bamboo Garden, she had intended to go straight upstairs, but as she reached the bottom of the building they lived in, she heard a child’s voice from above: "I’m going to find my daddy, I won’t be here anymore!"
"Why suddenly decide not to be here? Haven’t you been here the past few days?"
"I’m going to find my mommy to join daddy in searching for her." The words from the four-year-old child carried a coldness identical to his father’s that Bai Tingfang could hear from below.
That’s what blood ties do—the kind of seed you sow produces the kind of child you reap.
And so Bai Tingfang stood below, only to hear the "thud thud" footsteps of a child coming down the stairs, and soon after, a small figure descended from above.
Seeing this, Bai Tingfang quickly approached: "Xiaobao..."
But after the child came down from the stairs, he didn’t even give her a glance and headed straight outside: "Uncle Ying Hao..."
He detested them to the extreme!
Ying Hao had always been faithfully following the young master’s orders, protecting the little one closely. Hearing the small voice calling from inside, he immediately came out of hiding: "Young master?"
"I want to go to daddy’s place, please take me there!"
"Right away, young master!"
In the darkness, Ying Hao, who appeared at the doorway, cast a glance at the lady standing inside before he effortlessly lifted the child who had run over.
Bai Tingfang saw this and could only sigh before she then went upstairs.
Upon reaching the upper floor, indeed, she didn’t even have to enter the room to smell the fury wafting from afar. And when she entered, she saw the old man sitting in the chair seething with anger, his face dark as night, a mood that seemed to fill the entire building.
Realizing the sin he had wrought?
As Bai Tingfang walked in and saw his state, she not only lacked sympathy but felt somewhat schadenfreude: "What’s the matter? Unhappy? The child doesn’t want to stay with you, does that make you uncomfortable?"
He propped himself up with his cane, his face turning black, ignoring her completely.
Seeing this, the mockery on Bai Tingfang’s face grew even more intense: "Why the humph? Did I say something wrong? You want the child but you don’t want his mother; who do you think you are? A dictator who expects everyone to obey your every command? Dream on!"
Bai Tingfang’s words were indeed harsh!
But there was no falsehood in what she said; he was solely to blame for the current situation, having been so cruel as to tear apart a happy couple.
The old man was finally incensed, suddenly standing up from his chair, and he roared at her: "Get out!"
"I will get out! Let me tell you, Ou Qichang, someone like you deserves to be a lonely old man for the rest of your life!"
This wretched woman, without an inkling of movement, dared to tell him to be a lonely old man?
