That's why Qiao Changdong chose the most suitable age group to speak.

Eighteen years old, the most important period in one's life.

His precious child will surely have one in this lifetime.

"Huh? Little...brother, I didn't realize that." Yan Liti said in surprise, and Shen Qingyan, who was next to her, also looked over.

The rest of the group also looked over.

Qiao Changdong really looks no older than twenty-five!

But he has an eighteen-year-old daughter?

Even in some backward mountain villages, people get married and have children early, but if they have an eighteen-year-old daughter, they must be in their thirties at least.

Moreover, the soft, sweet voice I heard calling "Dad" earlier didn't sound like someone who was eighteen at all.

Qiao Changdong, without batting an eye or skipping a beat, casually retorted, "That's what everyone says."

After saying this, he had no intention of continuing the conversation. He said that someone was waiting for him downstairs and quickly went downstairs.

When Qiao Changdong arrived downstairs, the person he and Xiang Dongyan were waiting for had just arrived.

After asking Dongyan about Qiao Qiao's condition and confirming that she was alright, he introduced her to the two people who had come with him.

As the four walked toward the side hall, Qiao Changdong caught a glimpse of the group leaving the hotel. A military SUV had also joined them at the entrance, and the three vehicles left together.

Qiao Changdong looked away, feeling inexplicably relieved.

It was a very troublesome matter for Qiao Changdong, but the people Xiang Dongyan invited solved it in just one hour.

After resolving the issue, Qiao Changdong went to the mall and bought Qiao Qiao four or five more sets of clothes to change into, and also bought her two extra down jackets.

I also spent about a thousand yuan to bring back a few packs of cigarettes and a few bottles of wine as gifts.

Cigarettes are okay; the most expensive carton is only 58 yuan, but alcohol is much more expensive.

However, compared to 300,000, this is nothing.

That evening, the four of them treated someone to dinner at a state-run restaurant. After dinner, Qiao Qiao didn't rush to sleep but instead snuggled up in bed with Qiao Changdong to watch TV.

When Qiao Qiao and Qiao Changdong came to Baoyi City to sell clivia last time, they brought a television set back with them. However, there was no electricity in the countryside, so the television set has been kept at Qiao Xiaoyun's house ever since.

Qiao Qiao had gone to see it a few times, but there are still very few TV stations now, and even fewer TV programs.

She could never make it in time, and after watching the news a few times, she lost interest.

The hotel we're staying at today has a color TV, and it just so happens that it's showing a TV drama, a martial arts drama, which she's watching with great interest.

However, children have limited energy. Qiao Qiao only stayed up until nine o'clock, and then, like a clockwork toy, she fell asleep at that time.

I woke up again when Xiao Yuan, who was inside the bracelet's space, called me.

【Master, Master, wake up, wake up! Turn on the radar.】

"That's called the Divine Consciousness Circle," Qiao Qiao mumbled, correcting him as she groggily opened her eyes.

When she listened to Xiao Yuan's words and turned on the radar... no, the spiritual sense circle, she was able to sense the movements within a hundred meters of the hotel.

Someone is shouting for help!

The screams were very mournful.

Qiao Qiao's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.

She scanned the area with her spiritual power and saw someone being robbed in the alley next to the hotel.

The robbed man was curled up, making it impossible to see his face or age. All that could be seen was that he was lying on his side on the ground, tightly protecting a bag in his arms, refusing to let go.

The robber, while pulling on the bag and yelling for people to let go, kept kicking the man's stomach and legs.

But the man wouldn't let go of the bag in his arms.

Qiao Qiao withdrew her spiritual power, quickly tugged at Qiao Changdong who was sleeping beside her, and whispered, "Dad..."

"Hmm..." Qiao Changdong didn't even open his eyes, but his hand reached out as if by instinct.

First, I took her little hand and placed it on my ear, which was facing the ceiling, and let her pinch it. After doing that, I put my hand on her back and gently patted it.

"Sweetie, Daddy's here. Go to sleep. Daddy's always here, waah."

Finally, he gave her a light peck on the forehead.

"..." Qiao Qiao.

Helpless, she sat up beside him and turned on the bedside lamp.

The lights flashed.

Qiao Changdong had no choice but to open his eyes.

He shielded his eyes from the glaring light with one hand, looking at Qiao Qiao who had already sat up: "What's wrong? Do you want Daddy to carry you to the toilet?"

"No!" Qiao Qiao said, both embarrassed and annoyed.

She can go to the toilet by herself a long time ago; it's not time to carry her to pee.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Changdong sat up, worried that she might catch a cold, so he pulled the blanket over her and wrapped her up in his arms.

“Dad, I heard someone outside screaming for help. It was a really pitiful scream,” Qiao Qiao explained.

Qiao Changdong touched his forehead and looked around.

Puzzled, she asked, "Why didn't Dad hear that?"

“Really! Dad, let’s go take a look. There are lots of uncles in the hotel who can come with us.” The uncle Qiao Qiao was referring to was a security guard at the hotel.

The hotel's security was quite good. In addition to the two security guards at the entrance, there was a four-person security team that patrolled the hotel lobby and each floor from time to time.

Although Qiao Changdong did not hear any cries for help, he trusted his daughter and did not hesitate. He got up, dressed the two of them, and went down to the first floor of the hotel.

There was a night shift worker at the front desk on the first floor, along with the lobby manager; both were young men in their twenties, and they were chatting casually.

Seeing Qiao Changdong carrying Qiao Qiao down, they thought something had happened and looked over in confusion.
