4766 Never Too Late to Love (173)
Halfway through the song, she started crying and could not go on. She fell onto the stage, unable to recover.
Seeing that she had stopped singing, Mu Yazhe reached out and hit the button on the song-picker to stop the music. Only then did the deafening music in the huge private room stop.
Mu Yueyao’s reaction was a little slowed from the alcohol. After a long while, she finally realized that someone had turned off the music player and looked in that direction. Although she was not completely sober, she was able to recognize the man sitting on the sofa.
She suddenly felt guilty, but also aggrieved. Tears streamed down her face. “Daddy…”
This soft and coquettish greeting completely disarmed the man, and he found himself suddenly unable to stay angry.
With a slight frown, he sighed and patted the seat next to him gently. “Come over here. The ground is cold.”
Mu Yueyao obediently got up from the ground and walked towards him. She was clearly aiming for the seat next to her father but as she came up to him, her legs gave way and she collapsed on top of him.
He held her lovingly in his arms and gently rubbed her tear-stained eyes. There was a rare gentleness in his expression.
It was no wonder that Yun Shishi was often jealous. Before Yueyao was born, she had already mentally prepared herself. She knew that should she end up with a daughter, the two of them may eventually have to “fight for favor”. But she did not expect the man to be so biased.
Although they had been married for decades, the couple remained incomparably loving. They didn’t seem like an old couple that had been married for many years. While they respected each other, they retained the feeling of being in love, just like when they were young, but… As Yueyao grew up, he placed a lot of his focus on the girl.
Yun Shishi emphasized time and time again that daughters would get married eventually, they would not stay by their parents’ side forever. The man, on the other hand, insisted that it was because his daughter was going to get married sooner or later that he had to dote on her all the more. He loved her dearly. In the future, if his potential son-in-law did not dote on his daughter as much as he did, he would not be willing to hand her over to him.
Yun Shishi was considerably benevolent. But many times, she would still be a little jealous of her daughter. Especially every time she saw the man looking at their daughter dotingly, she would feel her heart ache and feel a little envious.
Mu Yueyao leaned her head on his shoulder and did not say a word.
The man frowned a little before he smiled. “What’s up? Who upset my little princess?”
He pretended not to know about the relationship between her and Jing Yang. Mu Yueyao was also unwilling to mention it either. How could she complain to her father? Even if she felt wronged, she was unwilling to tell him. She could not imagine it if he were to get angry at Jing Yang because of this.
One had to know that once the man got angry, if he really wanted to deal with Jing Yang, the entire entertainment industry would inevitably be shaken.
This was between her and Jing Yang, and she didn’t want to involve anyone else. Furthermore, she had drunk some alcohol and was in a daze. Perhaps she was tired of crying, but now that her tears had dried up and she was snuggled quietly in his arms, the entire world seemed to have quietened down.
She was too tired from crying and felt that her head was burning. She did not speak, and the man did not force her.
