"Of course not, my Xun'er is the most adorable little darling in the world," Lin Xiao grinned.
Since Nangong Wushuang dared to appear before him, it meant she wouldn't do anything to Xun'er.
He looked at the kindergarten gate and asked, "Aren't you afraid of delivering yourself as a target by coming here?"
"You are a man of principle; you wouldn't do that."
Nangong Wushuang shook her head. She stepped closer to Lin Xiao, closing the distance between them to no more than a fist's length.
At such close proximity, Lin Xiao caught the faint fragrance emanating from Nangong Wushuang. He didn't know what perfume it was, but it smelled wonderful, making him feel refreshed and invigorated.
However, he wasn't entirely comfortable with this closeness.
His eyebrows twitched, and a subtle killing intent emanated from him.
While he didn't intend to kill Nangong Wushuang right here, he wouldn't hesitate if she crossed the line.
It would just cause a bit of trouble with the ensuing chain reactions.
And it would only be a bit of trouble.
Just then, Nangong Wushuang immediately took a step back, widening the distance between them. She smiled charmingly and said, "Mr. Lin, it seems you love your wife and daughter very much."
"If you call them your loved ones, why wouldn't you love them?" Lin Xiao retorted, his expression bordering on condescending.
Nangong Wushuang coughed lightly under his gaze.
At that moment, the kindergarten day ended.
She and Lin Xiao turned towards the kindergarten entrance almost simultaneously.
Lin Xiao then stood beside Nangong Wushuang and asked, "Miss Nangong, what gift do you have for my daughter?"
"It's a gift for Xun'er, she'll know when she opens it later," Nangong Wushuang replied, holding onto the gift box in her hand and not handing it to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao wasn't in a hurry. He spotted his precious Xun'er, and beside her was a visibly reluctant Luo Bing.
Since Lin Xiao was picking up his daughter, Luo Bing had to walk with Xun'er.
"That must be Mr. Lin's grand-nephew?"
Nangong Wushuang also noticed Luo Bing. Her eyes narrowed beneath her sunglasses, and she then shook her head, "He doesn't seem very likable."
"Yes, I agree."
On this matter, Lin Xiao and Nangong Wushuang were in complete accord.
"Daddy!"
Xun'er, as usual, skipped with excitement and ran to Lin Xiao's side. "Look, I got another little red flower!"
"Xun'er is so good!"
Lin Xiao never held back his praise for his darling. Children needed to be encouraged to grow.
Luo Bing pouted and followed Lin Xiao.
"Luo Bing, what's wrong? Have you forgotten what I told you yesterday? You need to greet people and say hello; it's polite." Lin Xiao was slightly displeased with Luo Bing's current demeanor.
"Hello, uncle..."
"Hello, auntie..."
Luo Bing mumbled, his voice lacking energy.
"No, speak louder so people can hear you."
Lin Xiao admonished him.
"Hello, uncle! Hello, auntie!"
Luo Bing shouted with all his might.
His loud declaration drew the attention of the other children and parents around them. They looked over curiously, especially at Luo Bing's unwilling expression, quickly guessing that Lin Xiao might have done something that displeased him.
