She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

Nannan obviously recognized the familiar voice. She immediately turned around, her beautiful eyes lit up, full of surprise and joy: "Uncle Zhou!"

The person standing behind me was Zhou Hanzhi.

And his girlfriend Lin Xixi.

This world is really small, so small that Zhou Hanzhi and Lin Xixi and I meet so frequently.

I just ran into him at the children's toy city this morning, and now I just came out to buy some osmanthus cake, and I ran into him again.

Sometimes I really wonder if Zhou Hanzhi or Lin Xixi have installed a radar on me, so I can run into them wherever I go.

Zhou Hanzhi's eyes fell directly on Nannan's face. The corners of his lips curved slightly into a faint smile. He squatted down and opened his arms towards Nannan: "Nannan?"

Nannan didn't pause at all, and threw herself into Zhou Hanzhi's arms, smiling sweetly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Uncle Zhou."

Zhou Hanzhi picked her up, his smile widening, and he said nothing.

From my perspective, his thin eyelashes drooped, and the look in his eyes as he looked at his daughter seemed full of tenderness and doting.

What a harmonious and warm picture, but my heart is not so harmonious.

It seemed like there was a bomb buried among us. The implied danger and worry made my nerves highly sensitive and focused, and I couldn't laugh.

I want to escape.

I wanted to snatch Nannan from Zhou Hanzhi's arms and escape with her as soon as possible.

But my body couldn't move. I stood there stiffly, unable to make a sound.

"Sister Nanxu?" Lin Xixi seemed to be shocked by Zhou Hanzhi's actions. A look of surprise appeared on her face. She opened her round almond eyes and looked at Zhou Hanzhi and the girl in his arms. After a while, she looked at me, "This child... is it your daughter?"

There was a loud bang.

The bomb hidden in my heart exploded.

I was stunned by the thunder and stood there in a daze.

The thing I was most worried about happened.

The auntie who was selling osmanthus cake just now said with a smile that the little girl looks so much like her mother.

I always hoped that Zhou Hanzhi didn't hear this, but Lin Xixi heard it, and she also asked the question I least wanted to hear.

At the same time, Zhou Hanzhi, who was holding his daughter and smiling, turned his head after hearing Lin Xixi's question. His dark eyes stared at my face, with eager exploration and strong suspicion.

Sure enough, he also heard what the aunt selling osmanthus cake said, and he obviously began to doubt Nannan's identity.

At this moment, my breakdown reached its peak.

"No, it's not." I opened my mouth and tried several times before I could make a sound. The sound was panicked and rapid.

I quickly closed my mouth and pinched my palms with my fingertips, trying to control my emotions. When I spoke again, my voice was much calmer: "No, Nannan is adopted by my aunt and uncle. She is my niece. I went to the nursing home to see her today. She wanted to eat osmanthus cake, so I brought her out to buy some."

After saying this, I glanced at Zhou Han quickly.

Nannan also spoke seriously at this time: "Xuxu is not mommy, Xuxu is just Xuxu."

Zhou Hanzhi's dark eyes froze slightly, as if a trace of disappointment flashed across them, then he lowered his head to look at Nannan's small hand, his dense eyelashes obscuring the look in his eyes.

"Is this the adopted child?" A gleam of realization flashed across Lin Xixi's eyes, and a smile soon appeared on her surprised face, and it was an obviously relaxed smile.

She turned her head, smiled sweetly, touched Nannan's face with her fingers, and praised: "This little girl is really pretty, well-behaved and sensible, and the name is also nice."

"No." Nannan was very repulsive to Lin Xixi's touch. She quickly turned her face away, avoiding Lin Xixi's fingers, and hugged Zhou Hanzhi's neck tightly with her arms, revealing a look of disgust.

Lin Xixi's hand stopped awkwardly in mid-air, biting her lip.

Well, I feel wronged again.

But Zhou Hanzhi seemed not to notice her grievance. He held Nannan's body steadily with his big hands and spoke softly, "Nannan likes osmanthus cake too?"

"I like it! It's soft and fragrant, not too sweet and not greasy." Nannan tilted her head slightly and answered very seriously.

"What a coincidence! I also like osmanthus cake. I like it because it's fragrant but not too sweet." Zhou Hanzhi seemed to be more gentle and patient with Nannan than with Lin Xixi. However, when he talked to Nannan, his eyes were smiling. "Nannan's taste is exactly the same as mine."

"Many people like sweets, but many people can't stand sweets. Nannan and Mr. Zhou happen to be the type who don't like sweets, but other people's tastes may not be the same." I tried to make my tone sound natural, then reached out and took Nannan from Zhou Hanzhi's arms, "Nannan, Uncle Zhou is dating Aunt Lin, let's not disturb them."

Fortunately, Nannan has always been a very well-behaved and sensible child. Although she was a little reluctant to leave Zhou Hanzhi's arms, after hearing what I said, she left Zhou Hanzhi's arms without hesitation.

"I know, I can't be a light bulb, I can't be a light bulb on someone's date." Nannan blinked at me, rarely playful, and then looked at Zhou Hanzhi, "So Uncle Zhou is in love."

Zhou Hanzhi moved his lips but didn't say anything. Lin Xixi smiled with her eyes curved, and all the grievances she had just felt disappeared. "Nannan is so good. Yes, I'm in love with your Uncle Zhou."

"When will Xuxu date?" Nannan seemed to really dislike Lin Xixi. She just glanced at Lin Xixi and turned away. She held my face with her two little hands and suddenly asked another question, "Which uncle is Xuxu going to date?"

This question is really... too sudden and too embarrassing.

I didn't know how to answer her, but subconsciously turned my gaze to Zhou Hanzhi.

Zhou Hanzhi's dark eyes also contained confusion, anxiety, and a little nervousness.

Why is he nervous?

Who I'm dating has nothing to do with him, but he always mocks me or asks me weirdly who I'm dating...

I quickly looked away, but I could still feel Zhou Hanzhi's burning gaze: "Xu Xu doesn't want to fall in love."

"Yes, Xuxu is busy with work every day and also has to come to see Nannan, so she has no time to fall in love." Nannan nodded thoughtfully.

At this moment, I felt that Zhou Hanzhi's gaze was not so scorching anymore.

At this moment, the auntie who was selling osmanthus cake said, "Handsome boy, your purple rice osmanthus cake is ready."

"Thank you, Auntie." Lin Xixi immediately reached out to take the osmanthus cake, then took Zhou Hanzhi's arm and gave me a perfunctory smile, "Sister Nanxu, we'll leave first."

"Okay." These two people are finally leaving, and I don't have to be stared at by Zhou Hanzhi anymore. This is what I want more than anything else.

But Zhou Hanzhi didn't move. He still stood there, looking at Nannan's smiling face, and suddenly asked: "Nannan, when is your birthday?"
