Chapter 574: No Longer An Illegitimate Child

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Huo Yunshen had prepared a princess-themed room for Ying Bao. The room had been decorated entirely in warm pastel colors, and was equipped with a full set of matching furniture.

The ceiling had been specially decorated with star-shaped nightlights of different sizes. At night, with the nightlights on, the ceiling would be transformed into a starry sky.

Huo Yunshen had carefully picked out everything in the room for Ying Bao, from the Minnie bed sheets and the decorative lamps to the toys and the storybooks on the colorful bookshelves.

Ying Bao’s jaw dropped when she entered the room.

Wow, what a beautiful room!

It was covered in her favorite colors, and she absolutely adored the Minnie patterns.

It was the prettiest room she had ever seen. Surely only a beautiful princess was worthy of living in it?

“Wow~ It’s just as pretty as a princess’s room in a fairy tale. I love it.”

Ying Bao skipped around the room, unable to contain her excitement. “Daddy, are you sure I’m allowed to stay in such a pretty room?”

Huo Yunshen nodded, smiling. “Yup.” He tapped her on her little nose as he said indulgently, “I prepared this just for my beautiful little princess.”

“Yay! Long live Daddy!”

Ying Bao planted a kiss on Huo Yunshen’s cheek, and then ran joyfully to the child-sized bed. She took off her shoes, climbed onto the bed, and began playing with a teddy bear.

Huo Yunshen’s heart almost melted into a puddle of warm goo when he saw how happy his daughter was.

Whenever he thought of how she had missed out on a father’s love for the last 4 years, Huo Yunshen was seized with the urge to give her the best of everything in the entire world.

That evening, Xu Xiyan made dinner, and the family of three sat at the dining table together to eat.

Ying Bao was elated; her father and mother were taking turns adding food to her plate. She picked up her tiny spoon and began wolfing down her food; everything seemed extra delicious.

She said in between mouthfuls of food, “I want to sleep with Daddy and Mommy tonight. I want Daddy to tell me a bedtime story.”

Huo Yunshen nodded. “Okay, sure. It’s a promise.”

It was such a simple request. His daughter was so easily satisfied!

The three of them finished their dinner, showered, and climbed into bed.

Huo Yunshen lay on Ying Bao’s left, while Xu Xiyan lay on her right. Ying Bao lay between them, enveloped in happiness. She couldn’t stop smiling.

She wanted to tell all the other children in the world that she was no longer an illegitimate child. She had a Daddy and a Mommy. She had a family.

Huo Yunshen finished his bedtime story, only to discover that Ying Bao was already asleep. He could see the dimples on her cheeks—she had gone to sleep with a smile on her face.

She wasn’t the only one asleep; her mother, too, had dozed off.

Huo Yunshen’s cheeks dimpled as he watched the two of them sleep peacefully. His heart was now whole and complete.

He felt like the king of the world now that Xu Xiyan and his daughter were in his life. They meant everything to him.

One was his queen, while the other was his little princess. They were his greatest treasures.

He leaned over and kissed his little princess on the forehead. After that, he kissed his queen on the lips. He turned off the lights and settled back into bed with them.

He closed his eyes and followed his queen and princess into dreamland.

…

It was a new day.

Ying Bao opened her eyes and saw that she was still snuggled between her father and mother. This made her very happy.

She turned her head to the left and right to plant a kiss on her parents’ cheeks. It was so much fun for her to do this in secret!

Soon enough, the two adults in bed woke up. They kissed Ying Bao on her cheeks as they greeted her: “Good morning, darling.”
