Facts proved that people showed boundless potential when in crisis .
In order to avoid intimate contact with Huo Suicheng’s suit, Huo Xiaoxiao struggled to death and never let her father touch her . At that time, she was in a hurry and was so anxious that she cried out “Grandpa” .
Huo Xiaoxiao was also surprised at the moment she blurted out . Once she started to open her mouth, learning to speak was not difficult .
She spoke the word ‘daddy’ yesterday, and today, she uttered grandpa . After that would be Three Character Classic along with Hundred Family Surnames and Thousand Character Classic .
Old Master Huo had taken care of Huo Xiaoxiao for one year . When Huo Xiaoxiao came of age, he taught her to shout grandpa for more than half a year . Yet, his wish never came true . To make matters worse, he heard the word daddy at her one-year-old banquet yesterday .
This obviously infuriated him .
The child who had been with him for a year spoke ‘Daddy’ first?

Heartless little girl, your father won’t even talk to you abroad . Yet you still missed that guy all day long?
After teaching Old Master Huo the word “grandpa” for many days and nights, he finally heard it from his lovely granddaughter .
He cheerfully took Xiaoxiao from Huo Suicheng’s arms . “Xiaoxiao, hurry up, hurry up, say grandpa; Grandpa didn’t hear clearly just now . Please say grandpa again . ”
She had to say, One word ‘grandpa’ really saved her in distress .
Huo Xiaoxiao, who got rid of Huo Suicheng’s evil grasp, was relieved .
She clutched Old Master Huo’s clothes for fear of being carried away by Huo Suicheng .
“Grandpa!”

“Eh! You’re so good . You learned to call grandpa so quickly . You really deserve to be my granddaughter! Say it again!”
“Grandpa!”
“Really good! One more time . ”
“…Grandpa . ”
“Grandpa still wants to listen; say it again . ”
“Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandpa!”
Huo Xiaoxiao felt that she might have poked a hornets’ nest here .

However, it didn’t matter . She hadn’t spoken for a whole year, and she wished she could talk enough every day .
Old Master Huo grinned from ear to ear while listening to his lovely granddaughter’s shouts . Holding his little granddaughter, he walked to the dining hall . “Is Xiaoxiao hungry? Come, have breakfast with Grandpa . ”
Huo Xiaoxiao kissed her grandfather’s cheeks and hugged his neck . She dared not watch Huo Suicheng .
Hmph! There was a saying that dogs would not choose a poor family, and the mother of the child was never too ugly . Still, she didn’t mean to abandon her father . Who asked him to wear clothes so casually?
At the dinner table, Huo Xiaoxiao sat on Old Master Hou’s leg, holding the bottle to drink milk . From time to time, she would swallow the egg custard Old Master Hou brought to her mouth .
Huo Suicheng broke off the bread on one side and looked at his daughter, who had rejected him so coldly . Seemingly inadvertently, he said, “Chen Bo, could you please talk to the person who takes care of the Xiaoxiao at night to prepare some light refreshments?”
“What’s the matter?”
“Xiaoxiao opened the door of my room last night by moving a stool and went to my bed to sleep . A child went missing, but nobody noticed?”
Chen Bo was alarmed immediately . “Yes, I’ll talk to them later . ”
Old Master Huo looked down at Huo Xiaoxiao, who was drinking milk, and scolded her, “Why did you go to your father’s room in the middle of the night? The corridor is so dark; what if you fall on a small stool? Don’t do it again, alright?”
Huo Xiaoxiao, who was busy sucking her milk, treated her grandfather’s words as wind passing by her ear . She acted like a child who knew nothing .
Chen Bo felt sorry for her and said, “Sir, how can Little Miss understand your words? I’ll talk to the nannies later and let them watch more strictly at night . ”
Yet, Huo Suicheng also took this opportunity to say, “Chen Bo, please have my bedding changed later . ”
Chen Bo was old and liked to nag, though . “It was changed just yesterday . Is it because of the fabric or the color?”
