Lin Yi returned from his trip with a spaceship full of items, authorizing the sale of outdated technologies to other nations while prioritizing his nation's advancement. Upon arrival, he delegated the handling of his haul to Ouyang Lei and rushed home, only to find his wife and daughter at the company. He observed his daughter playing while his wife worked, reinforcing his desire to balance their lives.

Until Lin Yi pushed the door open and came in, Xiao Zihan didn’t lift her head but instead started speaking:

"Push the meeting time back a bit and tell them to start in half an hour. I’ve got something important to deal with here."

After saying this, she basically ignored Lin Yi, clearly mistaking him for her assistant.

This left Lin Yi somewhat helpless. It was evident just how busy this girl is every day.

However, at that moment, Xiaoluo Ning looked up from her play and gazed at Lin Yi.

When she saw Lin Yi, a bright, happy smile instantly lit up her little face.

She then charged toward Lin Yi on her little legs, shouting, albeit unclearly:

"Daddy, hug, Daddy, hug."

Seeing this, Lin Yi naturally wouldn’t wait for the little girl to reach him. He quickly ran over, and in a few strides, he was right in front of her, scooping her up into his arms.

He then planted a big kiss on her cheek and used his stubbly beard to tickle his precious daughter’s soft little face.

"My darling daughter, I missed you so much. Come give Daddy a kiss!"

This made Xiaoluo Ning giggle nonstop.

Realizing something was amiss, Xiao Zihan suddenly raised her head and was momentarily stunned when she saw Lin Yi.

Her face quickly brightened with a smile, and she tossed the pen aside, stood up, and ran over to Lin Yi:

"Oh, why are you back? Didn’t you just land today? How are you back so soon? Aren’t there things you need to handle over there? I thought you’d be back tomorrow.

Really, if you’re back, you’re back. Why not rest at home instead of rushing to the office?"

She also quickly ran to Lin Yi and jumped into his arms, grumbling a bit as she spoke.

But Lin Yi just pinched her cheek:

"I don’t feel tired; it’s you who should be resting well. What’s going on? Why so busy?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zihan immediately looked like a child who had done something wrong.

She lowered her head a bit fearfully and buried her head in Lin Yi’s chest:

"I’m not usually this busy when you’re not here; you just happened to catch me on a busy day."

Xiao Zihan knew Lin Yi was feeling sorry for her and feared he wouldn’t let her do these things anymore.

That’s why she told a lie even she didn’t believe.

Lin Yi knew this and shook his head helplessly, reaching out to gently tap her nose:

"I brought you into the company, not expecting you to do anything.

You should know you’re the boss here. It’s enough that you handle the major directions; let others take care of the tasks.

If you wear yourself out, I’ll feel hurt."

Hearing Lin Yi’s gentle words, Xiao Zihan snuggled into his chest like a kitten.

This provoked Xiaoluo Ning’s immediate discontent.

Feeling like Mommy was trying to take Daddy away from her, she reached out her little hands to push Mommy’s head away, babbling as she pushed.

This amused Lin Yi greatly, and he gently patted Xiaoluo Ning’s bottom:

"You little rascal, don’t bully Mommy."

Who knew that would make the little girl look utterly aggrieved:

"Daddy, bad, hit Ning Ning."

Mumbling unclearly while reaching for Mommy, she was evidently mad at Lin Yi.

Seeing this, Lin Yi put on a stern face on purpose:

"Oh, you little thing, calling Daddy bad? See how Daddy deals with you."

He extended his hand to tickle Xiaoluo Ning’s armpit.

This made Xiaoluo Ning, who was originally pouting, burst into giggles.

Watching the father and daughter, Xiao Zihan’s face softened into a warm smile.

"You two have fun first; I’ll deal with these matters here."

After saying this, Xiao Zihan turned and returned to her seat, picked up the pen, and started writing swiftly.

This made Lin Yi helplessly shake his head. He wanted to intervene, but this was Xiao Zihan’s business. Since she wanted to do it and didn’t mind, he couldn’t interfere.

At least for now, he couldn’t interfere, and if he needed to, it would be after some time.

Otherwise, Xiao Zihan would be displeased.

And this girl tends to keep her feelings inside, which Lin Yi doesn’t want to see.

So Lin Yi played with Xiaoluo Ning for nearly half an hour before Xiao Zihan finally lifted her head from the documents.

"Our family’s busy bee is done now? Ready to spend some time with hubby and child?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zihan’s face flushed slightly, and she gave a bashful smile.
