Chapter 248: Chapter 248: The Jade Pendant Changes Color_1

Excited, Tongtong dashed to the door and stretched out her chubby little hand to open it for Xu Fan, but she was gently stopped by Li Yueqin at the entrance.

“Good girl Tongtong, first, let’s see if this person is really daddy,” Li Yueqin gently picked up Tongtong and positioned her at the peephole on the door.

Being an innocent child with no hidden agendas, Tongtong would not have thought twice about opening the door, but Li Yueqin, a gold-medal housekeeping veteran, would definitely not open the door to someone whose identity was uncertain.

Although Tongtong was a bit eager to see Xu Fan, she obediently peeked through the peephole and, seeing Xu Fan standing outside, excitedly said to Li Yueqin, “Auntie Li, the man outside is Tongtong’s daddy, daddy came to see Tongtong, haha.”

No sooner had Li Yueqin put Tongtong down than the child stretched out her hand to open the door for Xu Fan again, only to be stopped by Li Yueqin once more.

“Wait a moment Tongtong, let me confirm with your mother on the phone first; we don’t want to make any mistakes, especially since I’ve never seen your father,” Li Yueqin took out her phone and quickly dialed Xu Yixue’s number.

Tongtong, though impatient to see Xu Fan, waited patiently when she saw Li Yueqin dialing the number. However, thinking of the person outside as her dad, the little one wanted to peek through the peephole again but her height was less than half the door, and she couldn’t reach. Anxious, the little girl began earnestly searching for a stool around the room.

Meanwhile, Li Yueqin’s call to Xu Yixue got through, and after a brief confirmation, Li Yueqin was finally sure of Xu Fan’s identity and opened the door with a “click”.

Xu Fan, though held up outside the door for a while, wasn’t upset; Xu Yixue and Tongtong may very well become the targets of many bad people in the future, and it was very good that the nanny at home was safety-conscious.

Upon entering, Xu Fan saw Tongtong struggling to drag a plastic stool towards the door.

“Baby Tongtong, what are you doing dragging such a big stool?” Xu Fan asked with a trace of happiness on his lips as he saw Tongtong.

“I want to stand on the stool and look at daddy through the peephole,” Tongtong answered while pulling the stool, her voice milk-sweet.

“Hahaha.” Xu Fan was both touched and amused by her response, and he said affectionately to Tongtong, “Look, isn’t daddy already here? Why do you still need a stool?”

“Eh, right,” Tongtong nodded, then quickly realized and let go of the stool, spreading her arms and pouncing toward Xu Fan.

“Daddy, daddy, Tongtong missed you so much!” The little girl toddled over, leaping into Xu Fan’s embrace like a swallow returning to its nest.

Xu Fan held his precious little girl, carved of cream and jade, and said tenderly in Tongtong’s ear, “Daddy missed Tongtong too.”

“Haha, daddy, how much did you miss Tongtong?” Tongtong, nestled in Xu Fan’s arms, rocked her two big braids and tilted her head as she asked.

“I missed you very much, very much,” Xu Fan stroked Tongtong’s little head lovingly as he spoke.

“Haha, Tongtong missed daddy very, very much too,” Tongtong snuggled up to Xu Fan’s cheek and then affectionately kissed him twice.

Li Yueqin, standing to the side, smiled warmly as she saw the affection between Xu Fan and Tongtong.

“Tongtong, look who I brought with me,” Xu Fan gently whistled towards the door.

A small white dog rushed into the room like a puff of smoke and started wagging its tail at Tongtong.

“Hahaha, it’s Ben Ben, Tongtong’s little sidekick has also arrived.” Tongtong struggled to jump down from Xu Fan’s arms and immediately hugged Ben Ben who was on the ground.

“Woof Woof… Little master, you’re too enthusiastic, I, a dignified dog of the Canine Star, have my pride.” Ben Ben resisted mightily, but dared not truly defy his little master. He let himself be held in Tongtong’s embrace, enduring a round of “maltreatment.”

Seeing Tongtong abandon his embrace for Ben Ben, Xu Fan’s face immediately showed a “I’m so hurt” expression.

And the mischievous-looking Ben Ben, seeing Xu Fan’s expression, became smug and called out to Xu Fan, “Woof Woof, master, isn’t my charm greater after all?”

“You little rascal, keep showing off and I’ll stew you to make dog meat hotpot!” Xu Fan threatened Ben Ben teasingly.

“Woof Woof… Master is too cruel, I must protest! Where are the dog lovers…” Ben Ben howled pitifully from Tongtong’s arms.

“Speaking of which, dad, didn’t you say you had a gift for Tongtong last night? Could the gift be Ben Ben?” Tongtong asked cutely while hugging Ben Ben, looking up at Xu Fan.

“Of course not, how could this silly dog be a gift.” Xu Fan slowly shook his head at Tongtong, revealing a mysterious smile.

“Oh, there’s another gift?” Tongtong clapped her hands excitedly, her eyebrows raised with joy.

“Woof Woof… Master is discriminating against the Canine Star people, where am I stupid…” Ben Ben continued to howl.

“Haha, first let go of Ben Ben, come here, dad has a little present for you.” Xu Fan said gently as he sat down on the living room sofa, beckoning Tongtong over.

Upon hearing Xu Fan’s words, Tongtong immediately released Ben Ben, hopped and skipped over to the couch, kicked off her slippers, climbed onto the sofa and then like a little animal snuggled into Xu Fan’s embrace, nestling against his chest and asking, “What nice present has daddy prepared for Tongtong?”

“Haha, it’s this.” Xu Fan pulled out the Hello KT Jade Pendant he had finished making the night before and delicately passed it into Tongtong’s little palm.

“Wow, it’s a KT Kitty, so pretty.” Tongtong, seeing the Hello KT Jade Pendant, exclaimed excitedly.

Xu Fan, watching Tongtong’s reaction, smiled contentedly.

“Daddy, daddy, why is this KT Kitty white instead of pink? I’ve seen KT in the comics and they are all pink,” the little princess said, playing with the jade pendant a bit, then looking at Xu Fan with some questions.

“Um, it’s supposed to be pink, isn’t it? No worries, this KT Kitty can change color.” Xu Fan took hold of the pendant and his palm ever so slightly communicated with the Guardian Spirit within.

Prince was now the Guardian Spirit of the jade pendant, fully capable of changing the pendant’s eye color or even shape.

Under Xu Fan’s suggestion, the jade pendant changed from white directly into pink, though because Prince was a pure-blooded person of ancient times who had never actually seen what Hello KT looked like, the shade of pink seemed a little off.

“Big brother, it’s supposed to look like this.” Xu Fan found a photo on his phone and waved it in front of the jade pendant.

The jade pendant vibrated slowly and then changed to the exact color of Hello KT as shown on the phone.
