Mu Shen, carrying the cold and the smell of alcohol, returned around nearly eleven o'clock. The lights at home were still on, the warm glow in the darkness always making his heart unconsciously start to warm.
He gathered his clothing around him as he stepped through the doorway, the stark difference in temperature inside warming his entire body.
"Daddy."
Ruanruan, who was dozing off on her master's body, immediately perked up at the sound. Her big, misty eyes fixed on the person at the door, she happily ran over, barefoot.
"Not wearing shoes again,"
Jiu Yun's voice carried a hint of helplessness from behind.
Mu Shen, reeking of alcohol, didn't want Ruanruan to smell it, but the little one ran over so quickly that he could only open his arms to pick her up.
Looking at the little girl's bare feet, disapproval flickered in his eyes, and he pinched her small nose.
"How many times have I said, remember to wear shoes."
