He took off the coat he was wearing and covered Xiao Ying’s body with it, hugging her.
He patted her back stiffly and waited for her to finish venting.
Xiao Ying cried until her voice was a little hoarse before slowly stopping. She laid in Cheng Yang’s arms, sniffling.
Cheng Yang consoled her with extreme patience.
Xiao Ying suddenly had the urge to complain as she said with grievance, “Everyone in the Xiao family bullied me and lied to me that I was a child of the Xiao family, but they didn’t treat me well at all. Madam Xiao deliberately bought me mature clothing to make me an embarrassment at the banquet. Xiao Ruoxuan snatched my things and Xiao Lingbo told me to get the hell out.”
Xiao Ying even wanted to tell Cheng Yang about the grievances she had suffered in her previous life, but she restrained herself in the end.
Cheng Yang’s eyes gradually turned ice-cold as he slowly wiped away the tears on Xiao Ying’s face.
He took her hand and stood up.
Xiao Ying subconsciously followed Cheng Yang’s footsteps before remembering to ask, “Where are we going?”
Cheng Yang said coldly, “To get revenge for my little kid.”

Xiao Ying was stunned. My little kid…
Her heart trembled at the way he addressed her.
She looked at the man in front of her, who was not particularly burly. In fact, he could even be considered a boy.
But the feeling he gave her was something she had never experienced before.
After Xiao Lingbo became aware that Cheng Yang was here, he quickly came out to welcome him.
“Mr. Cheng, your presence brings light to my humble dwelling.”
Cheng Yang’s expression was a little cold, but since his expression was usually pretty cold anyway, Xiao Lingbo could not tell that something was wrong.
It was only when Cheng Yang entered and Xiao Lingbo saw Xiao Ying behind him did his expression become stiff.
Then, he quickly put on a gentle face and said, “Child, why are you going out to play in the middle of the night? We were so worried.”
With that, he looked to Cheng Yang and chuckled, “We were just about to go look for this child. Thank god you escorted her back, Mr. Cheng.”
Cheng Yang went into the living room and sat casually, stretching his legs out on the coffee table, and pulled Xiao Ying to sit down as well.
Then he finally looked at Xiao Lingbo who was standing by the door and said, “Is that so? Why did I hear that the little girl was chased out?”
Xiao Lingbo glared at Xiao Ying before saying, “Nonsense, why would I chase my own daughter out? It was just that I reprimanded her a little harshly for being immature, and she must’ve misinterpreted my meaning. ”
Xiao Lingbo wanted to sit down but with a glare from Cheng Yang, he stood up again.
The way Cheng Yang sat on the couch made him seem more like the master of the house.
The Xiao family members, on the other hand, stood by the side obediently and did not dare to make a sound.
Jealousy flashed through her eyes as Xiao Ruoxuan looked at Xiao Ying, who was in Cheng Yang’s arms.
This contrast made her realize how powerful Cheng Yang was, and she looked at him with burning eyes.
Cheng Yang snorted, though it was unclear whether or not he believed Xiao Lingbo’s words.
Xiao Lingbo smiled ingratiatingly as his eyes shifted. He said, “It’s so great that you’ve taken such a liking to Ying’er, but this child is really too much. She’s developed a bad temper after taking advantage of your pampering. The Xiao family has recently encountered some trouble and this child even said this morning that with Brother Cheng Yang around, there won’t be any problems at all.”
He stopped and looked at Cheng Yang’s reaction.
Cheng Yang smiled mysteriously and looked at the silent girl in his arms. “Do you want me to help the Xiao family? If you want, I’ll help.”
The moment those words left Cheng Xiao’s mouth, Xiao Lingbo’s eyes were instantly filled with joy.
He looked at Xiao Ying. “Ying’er, Mr. Cheng is asking you a question, answer him! Didn’t you always say that you wanted to go to the amusement park? Daddy will take you there tomorrow, okay?”
A hint of mockery flashed across Xiao Ying’s eyes. So he remembered that she wanted to go to the amusement park.
In her previous life, she had begged him for a year to take her to the amusement park on her tenth birthday.. But she waited until her eighteenth birthday, waited until the day she died, and yet still never went to the amusement park.
