Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

Feeling the envy and admiration revealed between the lines of Nian Nian's words, Qin Zhiyuan didn't know how to comment.

If he had not taken that wrong step back then, this envy and admiration from his daughter should have belonged to him as a father.

It’s a pity that he hurt Tang Shi and Nian Nian for the sake of his career.

Even if Nian Nian is willing to call him dad, what can he say to her, and how can he dare to agree?

Especially feeling Nian Nian's admiration for Li Dong.

Qin Zhiyuan knew that even if he revealed his identity now, Nian Nian probably would not recognize him.

Moreover, he didn't have the face to recognize Nian Nian.

After some self-deprecating remarks, Qin Zhiyuan finally couldn't help but ask, "Your name is Nian Nian, right? Uncle, can I give you a hug?"

Nian Nian quickly shook her head, "No, Mom and Dad said that strangers can't hold me."

Qin Zhiyuan stretched out his hand, but it froze in place again. He didn't dare to continue trying, for fear of scaring Nian Nian.

Nian Nian changed the subject, "But you shouldn't be a stranger either. You are Dad's friend."

Turning around, Nian Nian looked at Li Dong and asked in a pleading tone, "Dad, he wants to hug Nian Nian, can you agree?"

Li Dong rubbed Nian Nian's head and said, "You make your own decision on this matter. You are a big kid now and can make your own decision."

Nian Nian thought for a moment and said, "Since you are Dad's friend, I'll let you hold me."

"But we agreed beforehand that I can only hug you for a moment."

"If you hold me for too long, Dad will get angry!"

Nian Nian's playful tone made Qin Zhiyuan laugh and completely dispelled the gloom from before.

As he laughed, tears welled up in Qin Zhiyuan's eyes.

Qin Zhiyuan, you deserve it!

Putting aside those complicated thoughts, Qin Zhiyuan opened his arms and carefully held Nian Nian in his arms.

It was like holding a rare treasure, not daring to make any unusual movements, for fear that any big movement would scare Nian Nian.

He was also afraid that all this was a dream, and as he exerted force, he woke up from the dream.

As he hugged her, Qin Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel tears in his eyes.

This scene has appeared in my dreams so many times, but I didn’t expect it to finally come true today.

I don't know why, but I can't control my tears anymore.

This man of steel has faced extremely vicious criminals and his emotions have never wavered in the slightest.

But at this moment, in front of Nian Nian, all the defenses collapsed!

Han Zhan saw this scene not far away and couldn't help but sigh.

Although I don’t know what happened back then, it is obvious that the boss has paid the price for his mistake.

His biological daughter was right in front of him, but he couldn't recognize her.

He even had to pretend to be Li Dong's friend in order to get in touch with Nian Nian.

For the boss, this is the harshest punishment in the world, right?

Nian Nian seemed to notice something was wrong and turned her head to look, "Uncle, why are you crying? Is it because Nian Nian is too heavy?"

Qin Zhiyuan shook his head repeatedly, "No, when uncle held you in his arms, he also thought of his daughter."

Nian Nian asked naively, "Uncle, do you have a daughter too?"

Qin Zhiyuan nodded and said with a look of melancholy: "Yes, uncle also has a daughter."

"If he were still with his uncle, he would be about your age!"

Nian Nian asked curiously, "Then why isn't she by Uncle's side? Is it because she did something wrong to make Uncle angry, and Uncle doesn't want her anymore?"

Qin Zhiyuan shook his head repeatedly, "No, it was uncle who did something wrong. It was uncle who hurt her."

Nian Nian curled her lips and said, "Uncle, you are wrong."

"You should learn from my dad. My dad is a very good dad."

"He never does anything wrong and loves me and mom very much. Mom and I also love him very much. Mom and I will always be by Dad's side!"

Qin Zhiyuan's eyes remained dim. "Yes, your father is a very good father."

"Uncle is not qualified to be a father, and he is not as good as your father."

Nian Nian nodded, and said in a naive tone, "It's okay. Our teacher said that children who admit their mistakes and correct them are good children."

"As long as you correct your mistakes, I believe she will like you as a father!"

After saying this, Nian Nian wiped the corners of Qin Zhiyuan's eyes.

A slight movement caused Qin Zhiyuan's emotions to collapse again.

The tears flowed like a broken string, and I couldn't control them no matter what I did.

Nian Nian was a little confused, as if frightened by Qin Zhiyuan's appearance.

Turning around, he looked at Li Dong for help, "Dad..."

Qin Zhiyuan also knew that his appearance scared the child, so he took the initiative to return Nian Nian to Li Dong.

Li Dong took Nian Nian back and said, "Don't be afraid, Nian Nian. Uncle Qin is thinking about his own daughter."

Nian Nian said, "Uncle, then hurry home and find your own daughter. Nian Nian also wants to find her father."

Qin Zhiyuan nodded, forced himself to stop crying and said, "Okay, uncle will go back now."

"It's too late, you should go to bed."

"By the way, Li Dong, I prepared some things for the child. I wonder if I can give it to her?"

Li Dong did not stop him, but asked, "What is it?"

Qin Zhiyuan calmed down and waved to someone not far away.

Han Zhan understood, hurriedly opened the trunk of the car, and took out a pile of toys from it.

Most of them are dolls with gorgeous packaging, and they look very valuable.

When these things were placed in front of her, Nian Nian's eyes lit up, "Wow, so many toys!"

Qin Zhiyuan asked, "How is it, does Nian Nian like it?"

Nian Nian nodded, with stars in her eyes, "I like it!"

Qin Zhiyuan said, "Then I'll give all of these to you, okay?"

If an ordinary child received so many gifts, he would be extremely happy.

But Nian Nian shook her head and said, "No, Mom and Dad said that Nian Nian can't accept gifts from strangers."

"Besides, if you give all these gifts to me, then your daughter will be gone, right?"

Qin Zhiyuan explained: "Niannian is so good. Uncle has other gifts, and these gifts are all prepared for you."

Nian Nian turned around and asked, "Dad, can I have these gifts?"

Li Dong said: "Of course, but you can only choose one!"

Nian Nian was very well-behaved. She walked forward obediently and chose among the gifts again and again. She was reluctant to give up this one and wanted that one too.

Finally, after some hesitation, I chose a little doll and held it in my hand, "Daddy, can I have this?"

Li Dong nodded, "Okay, remember to thank uncle."

Nian Nian turned her head and said, "Thank you, uncle!"

Qin Zhiyuan stood up and said with emotion, "Li Dong, thank you today!"

Li Dong replied, "No need to thank me, I just don't want to hurt the child's feelings."

"God is watching over you. No matter what you do, remember, there is a God above you!"

After saying this, Li Dong turned around and left with the child in his arms.

When he came to Song Ci, Song Ci did not follow him, "Li Dong, go back and coax Nian Nian to sleep first, I'll stay and take care of some things!"
