419 (third watch of the night)

```

The sight was terrifying, and the little loli staggered backward two steps before turning around and running out the door barefoot. Bread, sleeping on the ground floor, felt his little master's unease and hastily opened his eyes, whimpering and dashing out, disappearing into the night.

Mo Qianjue's steps were unsteady as he left the children's room, but he did not go after the little loli. Instead, he turned into the study next door, his expression filled with sorrow.

Everything seemed to return to calm.

Only, the lamp in the study remained lit throughout the night.

Bread quickly caught up with the little loli, first licking her small hand, then her cheek, silently comforting her.

The night was very quiet, and very dark; no one knew what dangers hid beneath its cloak.

Looking out at the endless night, the little loli felt both wronged and afraid, tears flowing even more fiercely. She didn't even know what she had done wrong for daddy to treat her this way.
