The Radiance of Protecting the Country

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Time slowly passed, and Qin Lie still hadn't heard Zhouzhou's response.

Was she too shocked and didn't know what to say?

He felt conflicted as well, but in the end, he turned to look at Zhouzhou, only to be stunned.

“Zzzz—"

He saw that Zhouzhou had fallen asleep at some point, making soft snoring sounds. Occasionally, she smacked her lips and muttered words like "bread" and "candy."

Such a little foodie.

Qin Lie sighed and rubbed his temple, feeling a headache coming on.

He had mustered up the courage to ask that question, imagining a thousand possible reactions from her, but he never expected it to be like this.

He couldn't help but cry and laugh at the same time. He lightly tapped her little nose and helplessly said, "You silly child, do you know how much courage it took for Dad to ask you this? The next time I want to tell you about this, I'll need even more courage."
