"Uncle," Shangguan Qing's normally composed face lit up with rare excitement. He rarely saw this uncle—whom he was due to join in the military after the New Year—outside of the annual holiday. He truly hadn't expected to see him now, let alone appearing directly at their home.
"Daddy," Shangguan You's gaze met Shangguan Hao's. She quietly responded as she saw the sharpness in his eyes gradually replaced by remorse. She didn't know how to face this daddy of hers. In her memory, this daddy was authoritative and cold, a man of iron and blood. He came home so infrequently that his visits could be counted on one hand. Every time he came home and she caught his gaze, Shangguan You couldn't help feeling a bit scared.
