Chapter 19: By the Power of the Law, Monsters Reveal Yourselves!

A 'rumble' echoed through the office.

The slightly stiff atmosphere was broken by the sound of an empty stomach.

Fu Siyuan's eyes widened abruptly, and his gaze instinctively darted towards his little sister.

"Is Zhizhi hungry?"

Fu Jingyi, holding his sister, had also heard the growl.

Seeing everyone's eyes turn to her, Zhizhi, clutching her little tummy with both hands, immediately felt shy and buried her small head in her brother's embrace.

The sight brought smiles to everyone's faces.

Song Qingshan and Mu Lan simultaneously set down their teacups.

Fu Siyuan and Fu Yuchen, in turn, set aside their differences.

Everyone rose together, seemingly ready to head downstairs for a meal.

Zhizhi was only three, and her appetite was naturally small.

Even though she had drunk over two hundred milliliters of milk from her bottle that morning.

After breakfast, the little one had played hide-and-seek with her second and third brothers, then was brought to the Fu Corporation building to share her good luck with everyone.

The milk in her little belly had long since been digested.

Now, hearing the little one's stomach rumble, Fu Jingyi and the other two brothers simultaneously glanced at the wall clock.

It was already past eleven.

According to scientific parenting methods, they should have given their sister a snack at ten.

With a furrowed brow, Fu Jingyi immediately picked up his sister and headed out.

"What would Zhizhi like to eat?"

The little one, still embarrassed, hid in her brother's arms, unwilling to peek out.

Hearing her brother ask what she wanted to eat, she slightly lifted her head, her dark eyes darting around.

"Second brother's cooking is yummy, Zhizhi likes it."

Fu Yuchen, following behind, couldn't help but smile at his sister's praise, even though the food was actually prepared by the kitchen staff.

Fu Jingyi's eyes crinkled with a smile, "But second brother didn't cook here. Shall we go downstairs and see what Zhizhi would like to eat?"

It was only eleven o'clock.

Fu Corporation employees started their lunch break at twelve.

At this hour, the cafeteria shouldn't be too crowded.

Gently stroking his sister's soft hair, Fu Jingyi held her, bouncing her little bottom slightly.

"Zhizhi said second brother gave Zhizhi a horsey ride, is that right?"

Before Zhizhi could even gasp at the sudden lift, her little body was already perched on her brother's shoulders.

Clutching her brother's head tightly, Zhizhi praised him without reservation, "Brother is so amazing, Zhizhi is flying high!"

Fu Jingyi was tall, being the eldest son of the Fu family, standing nearly 1.9 meters.

With the little one on his shoulders, she was just a little short of touching the ceiling.

"Big brother, slow down! What if Zhizhi gets scared?"

Fu Siyuan and Fu Yuchen, following behind, broke out in a cold sweat at their eldest brother's sudden move.

Even though they trusted their brother's strength, they couldn't help but reach out to support their sister's small body.

Afraid she might accidentally fall—after all, she was so small, and a tumble on the marble floor would be no joke.

Fu Jingyi knew his limits. Hearing his sister's joyful laughter above him, he not only didn't bring her down but sped up.

"Then big brother will take Zhizhi flying high!"

The young man, tall and long-legged, moved swiftly.

This truly gave the sensation of flying.

Zhizhi loved to play but was also afraid of falling. The vast floor was filled only with her excited squeals and delighted laughter.

The entire floor housed only the CEO's office and the assistants' office.

The assistants' office was filled with men.

Recent matters at Fu Corporation had them swamped.

Not long ago, even the arrival of the second and third young masters had barely registered with them.

Now, with a little girl's laughter suddenly echoing through the floor, the assistants in the office immediately stopped their work.

"Am I so busy I'm hallucinating? Why is there a little girl laughing outside?"

"There really is. Didn't the neighboring building have ghost stories recently? Could it be..."

"Nonsense! Ghosts are nocturnal creatures. It's daytime now, and besides, our office is full of men with strong yang energy. How could there be ghosts?"

"Then you go scout ahead. If there's trouble, shout, and we'll come save you."

Assistant Xiao Wang was pushed out, still bewildered.

The Fu Corporation building was the tallest office tower in the capital, with an incredibly vast footprint.

Thus, this floor felt somewhat empty.

Looking down at the compact mirror and stapler his friend had shoved into his palm, a cold sweat broke out on the back of Xiao Wang's neck.

In broad daylight, he probably wouldn't actually encounter a ghost, right?

The little girl's laughter outside hadn't stopped.

Xiao Wang held the compact mirror in one hand and the stapler in the other. As the laughter drew nearer, his palms even began to sweat.

He was only 28, not yet an executive assistant, not yet married with children, and he'd just fought with his parents this morning...

The instant 'death' loomed before him, Xiao Wang nearly dropped to his knees, kowtowing to beg for his life.

Fu Jingyi hurried along with his little sister, almost reaching the elevator when he spotted his father's assistant standing there, trembling from head to toe.

He halted, turning around, and the little one's gaze followed his.

Xiao Wang was so terrified his eyes were squeezed shut. He heard footsteps approaching and immediately raised the compact mirror in his hand, shouting, "By the sacred command, reveal your true form, demon!"

Fu Jingyi: "......"

Zhizhi: "......"

"Brother, what is this brother doing?"

Her clear, milky voice piped up with confusion.

The little one clung to her brother's head, resting her small head atop his as she stared at Xiao Wang with a completely baffled expression.

She tilted her head down and caught sight of her own reflection in the mirror.

"Is this brother brushing his teethies?"

In the little one's impression, mirrors were only used when her brothers helped her wash her face or brush her teeth in the morning, night, and after meals.

Peering this way and that at her reflection, she reached up and pinched her own chubby cheeks.

Mmm, so squishy soft.

No wonder Third Brother loved pinching Zhizhi's cheeks.

Hearing the sweet little voice, Xiao Wang finally snapped back to reality.

Swallowing hard, his mouth dry, he silently prayed for ancestral protection before daring to slowly open his eyes.

The moment his eyes opened, the sight before him was so charming he forgot why he was even standing there.

All he could see now was the tiny figure perched atop Fu Jingyi's head.

A born charmer!

The phrase popped into his mind instantly.

Xiao Wang's eyes widened, and he swallowed again.

Wh-what in the... what kind of little angel was this? Could such an adorable creature truly exist in the human world?

She was staring at him... and even smiling at him...

The lifelong bachelor Xiao Wang suddenly flushed red, his eyes betraying his fascination as they remained glued to the little one's face without blinking.

Zhizhi had never met such a strange human before.

Tilting her head slightly where it rested on her brother's, she asked in her milky voice, "Is big brother not feeling well?"

She cares about me!!!

The little man inside Xiao Wang's heart was screaming and flailing wildly.

Clutching the compact mirror tighter, he pursed his lips and shook his head with a bashful smile.

Just as Xiao Wang stared unblinkingly at the little one, the group of gruff men from the assistants' office came rushing out at the noise.
