Chapter 81: Little Eight, Why Did Li Chen Kiss Me?
Nan Xun thought for a moment, then asked, “Dad, can you shoot a gun? I want to go to a shooting range and learn marksmanship. I think the posture when shooting is insanely cool!”
Li Chen raised an eyebrow slightly. “So my little darling is interested in that.”
Li Chen took Nan Xun to the largest shooting range in the city. The owner, Boss Wu, was clearly an old acquaintance of his. He personally led them to the best-positioned No. 5 range and brought out Li Chen’s usual Desert Eagle.
Nan Xun stared at the silver handgun in her dad’s hand, her fingers itching to touch it.
Boss Wu chatted casually with Li Chen for a bit. When his gaze swept over the eager-looking Nan Xun at the side, he revealed a knowing smile and said, “Young Master Li, enjoy yourselves. I still have things to take care of, so I won’t disturb you.”
When Boss Wu had walked quite a distance away, he couldn’t help but glance back. Just then, he saw the sweet, innocent-looking girl from earlier step forward and hug Li Chen’s arm. Li Chen actually indulged her, the two chatting and laughing together. Even from afar, one could feel the intimacy and sweetness between them.
Tsk—so the cold-faced little King of Hell wasn’t immune to women after all. And this was his preferred type. Look at that young, naive getup—how was he anything like the decisive Young Master Li of the business world? To please his little lover, he was really putting in the effort.
Boss Wu pondered that, if he had time, he might go look for one or two more. Once a man had tasted it, someone of Li Chen’s status wouldn’t care about one or two extra. Still, that girl just now—she was a real stunner. For the moment, he really couldn’t find anyone better than her…
“Baby, stand back a bit. Daddy will show you first,” Li Chen said, then directly raised the Desert Eagle with one arm.
The man’s arm traced a beautiful arc through the air. The moment it straightened, without the slightest hesitation, three shots rang out—bang, bang, bang. Every bullet hit the red bullseye, all clustered in the same spot.
Nan Xun was practically moved to tears by how cool her dad was. Didn’t normal people aim first before shooting? Her Dad Li Chen just raised the gun and fired—and every shot hit dead center. This marksmanship was insanely badass!
“Come, baby, come to Daddy,” Li Chen said, extending his hand toward her.
Nan Xun was worshipping Li Chen to the extreme now. Hearing that, she immediately trotted over and hugged him tightly. “Dad, you were way too handsome just now! I’m officially your fan!”
Li Chen smiled. Unable to help himself, he lowered his head and kissed the tip of her nose.
Nan Xun froze, instantly thinking, Holy crap. “Little Eight, why did Li Chen kiss me?”
The Void Beast yawned. “So sleepy… He kissed you, so what? He’s your dad—why can’t he kiss you? It was just a peck on the nose, not your little mouth.”
“Just because he’s my dad, he can kiss my nose?” Nan Xun’s voice rose involuntarily.
“Of course. Father and daughter—being affectionate is normal. Other families are like this too. Don’t you know?” the Void Beast said dismissively.
Nan Xun replied with a dumbfounded expression, “I really don’t. Your big sister grew up without a dad.”
The Void Beast chuckled. “Exactly! See how good I am to you? I knew you lacked fatherly love, so I chose this world for you to experience it. How does it feel, having a dad who dotes on you?”
Nan Xun thought about it and said, “You know, it really does feel nice—to be loved since childhood. Kids with dads who love them are like treasures; kids without dads are like weeds.”
While they were chatting, Nan Xun had already picked up the gun and aimed at the same target her dad had shot.
“Baby, your posture is wrong,” Li Chen said, suddenly leaning in.
His right hand wrapped around Nan Xun’s hand holding the gun, while his other hand held her waist. His face rested close to hers.
Nan Xun could clearly feel the warmth coming from his cheek, and the large hand gripping her waist. Even through a layer of clothing, she could feel the heat of his palm.
She suddenly felt a little flustered. Th-this… was this really normal?
“Baby, don’t lose focus. Look at the target,” Li Chen said in a low voice.
“Huh? Oh!” Nan Xun stopped letting her thoughts wander. Her Dad Li Chen was acting so upright and proper—she felt ashamed of that fleeting thought that had crossed her mind. Her thinking was really too dirty.
“Feet a little wider, about shoulder-width apart. Yes, like that. Don’t tense your legs so much—relax. Let your toes loosen naturally. Aim at the target. Now—fire!”
With a bang, the bullet shot out. Nan Xun felt a slight jolt in her hand, but that big hand wrapped firmly around hers, so her hand didn’t shake as the bullet flew out.
“Dad, I hit it! I hit the bullseye!” Nan Xun jumped excitedly—only for the back of her head to thump into the chin of the person behind her.
She immediately reached up to rub it. “Dad, does it hurt? I’ll rub it for you.”
Li Chen pulled her into his arms, lifted her small face with one hand, and said, “Baby, just blow on it for Daddy and it won’t hurt anymore.”
Nan Xun agreed, then tilted her head up and gently blew on his chin.
“Dad, bend down a bit, I can’t reach,” she said when he didn’t move for a while. She reached up and hooked her arms around his neck, pulling his head down.
Li Chen wrapped both arms around her slender waist, watching his little treasure puff out her cheeks as she blew on his chin. The breath carried a faint fragrance—some of it slipped into his nose, inexplicably intoxicating.
Neither of them realized how ambiguous their posture was. From a distance, they looked as if they were kissing.
As a result, Boss Ma, a real-estate tycoon heading their way, was completely shocked.
He’d just heard Old Wu say that the Li family’s young master was here, so he’d thought to come over and build some rapport. He hadn’t expected to witness such a scene.
The woman beside him, exquisitely made up, was also stunned when she saw it, then laughed. “Boss Ma, didn’t you say Young Master Li doesn’t get close to women? I’ve really had my eyes opened today. Look—they’re already kissing. Judging by that figure, she’s very young, probably not over eighteen.”
Boss Ma let go of her and said, “Rongrong, wait here for me. It’s not easy to get a meeting with Young Master Li—this is a good opportunity.”
Li Rongrong nodded and smiled at him. “I know you men like to talk business. Go on—another day you can keep me company.”
Nan Xun was busy bonding with her Dad Li Chen when she noticed a balding middle-aged man in his fifties walking over.
She could feel that Li Chen was unhappy—unhappy at being interrupted.
“Young Master Li, it’s been a long time,” the man said with a smile.
Li Chen patted Nan Xun on the back. “Baby, practice here for a bit. Daddy will come find you in a moment.”
Nan Xun nodded obediently. “Talk nicely, okay? Don’t lose your temper.”
Li Chen couldn’t help but laugh. Had his little darling noticed he was in a bad mood?
“Alright, I’ll listen to you,” Li Chen said, gently hooking a finger under her nose.
