Assassin Dad and His Genius Daughter

Chapter 29 Comfort



Jing Xue returned from France and was picked up by her team, who had waited patiently for the young actress to arrive.

The moment she landed, she was surrounded by a crowd of fanatic fans who attempted to ask her for her autograph. Although she was annoyed by the flashing lights from the camera, she smiled gracefully and greeted her fans joyfully.

"Jing Xue, I love you so much!"

"Your songs touched my heart deeply, I want to listen to them a billion times."

The cries of her fans overwhelmed her as she was brimming with happiness and gratitude toward them. Jing Xue initially appeared cold to the outsiders but the moment her fans came, her icy exterior warmed off.

She signed all of their autographs and left the airport with her bodyguards surrounding her, she was greeted by her assistant Jin Qiu who offered her a cup of iced Americano.

The woman was dressed in a formal office lady uniform with a name tag and gold-rimmed glasses, looking extremely professional.

"How was your trip?"

Jin Qiu may be her assistant in business but personally, she was one of Jing Xue's closest friends and confidants. Generally, she knew everything about Jing Xue's past and present.

"It went well, I guess."

She took the cup of iced Americano and took off her sunglasses, taking a sip of it, and spoke in a complicated tone.

The trip she took this time was strange with the appearance of that man she met, they talked for the longest time and Jing Xue was repeatedly cursed by him in German.

Much of their topics were based on one person, the man constantly urged her to believe his made-up stories and blamed everything on her.

"Good because your ex has been making trouble for everyone at the company," Jin Qiu couldn't help but complain to her with an annoyed voice, "He's been fighting with your manager about something regarding you."

"Brother Chen told me."

Jing Xue immediately frowned and her beautiful face became dark, she curled her lips and spoke audibly, "What is his problem with me?"

"Apparently, he can't accept the fact you guys broke up and told the manager that he wanted to talk to you," Jin Qiu shook her head with an angered expression.

Jing Xue snorted and sipped her coffee with an unreadable voice, "I don't blame him, I didn't give him a reason why I wanted to break up with him."

"Jing Xue!"

Jin Qiu exclaimed with a shocked expression.

"I know it was pretty petty of me, I can't help it," Jing Xue lowered her head with a guilty face and continued to speak, "Whenever I see his face, I have the urge to punch him."

"..."

Jin Qiu continued to stare at her beautiful face with a flabbergasted expression, Jing Xue snorted and stopped talking about that man.

"Jin Qiu, I have a favor to ask from you," Jing Xue's face was unreadable as she spoke with a slightly lonely voice.

"I want to find someone, who goes by the name Ren Ye."

The conversation she had with the strange man in France was too similar to the constant nightmares she had these past few days to dismiss, she truly wanted an answer from this man.

Whenever she heard this name, she felt a longing ache in her heart; wanting to burst out from her chest.

-

Ren Ye took his daughter to the amusement park in the morning, and both of them played around for a couple of hours before the little girl got tired and asked for a break.

"Papa, look!"

The little girl pointed at a large teddy bear on display as a man in front of the toy display gave darts to the visitors, he loudly called for the passerby to come over and win prizes.

Ren Jia was attracted by the huge teddy bear and pulled her Papa's shirt with intrigued eyes, Ren Ye glanced at the bear and nodded his head.

"Watch as I win the game," Ren Ye couldn't help but brag playfully with her.

He took the darts from the man and began standing in line, observing the target carefully.

"Good sir, you have to hit the balloons five times and if you manage to hit every target, you will be given the large teddy bear on display," The man informed Ren Ye with a curious expression, wanting to know if this young father is able to impress his daughter and get what she wanted.

"No problem," Ren Ye focused his eyes on the targets and began aiming the dart.

His eyes swayed from the left to the right before stopping, he have found the most accurate angle and lifted his hand. Ren Jia who was in his arms cheered for her Papa, "Papa! I believe you can do it!"

Strike!

In one go, Ren Ye hit all of the balloons without any mistake. The man with the darts had his jaws open and clapped his hands loudly, praising in an impressed tone. The other customers shot envious eyes at him and praised his aim silently.

"We have a winner here! He is the first man I've ever seen that hit all of the targets!"

Ren Ye didn't take their praises seriously and only focused on getting the large teddy bear for Ren Jia, the bear was of the same size as Ren Jia.

Basically, at that moment, Ren Ye was holding two people in his arms.

"Papa!"

She hugged him tightly and pointed at the large wheel in front of them, asked with glowing eyes,

"I want to go on that wheel!"

Ren Ye nodded his head with a satisfied grin on his face, discarding his cold exterior completely in front of the little girl, "Let's go!"

Both of them sat down on the Ferris wheel as it went in a circle and stopped at its peak, scaring the little girl and caused to hide in her Papa's arms.

"Don't be scared."

Ren Ye rubbed her head comfortingly and glanced at the view with a relaxed expression, "I will protect you. Didn't you want to come here before?"

"Yes, but I didn't expect it to be this young!" The little girl cried out with tears at the corner of her eyes, in need of assurance from her Papa. She gripped his left hand tightly with both of her arms, snuggling in his arms.

Ren Ye let out a chuckle and pointed toward the sky, "Watch the flying birds in the sky and forget about your fear."

"As long as I am here, I won't allow you to fall."

He spoke in an unusually gentle tone, causing the little girl to relax her tensed body, and glanced at the blue sky with teary eyes.

Before long, she completely relaxed and continued to stare at the birds with a focused expression. The little girl pouted her lips and hugged her Papa, asking for more comfort.

"Papa, I miss Mama."

This was the first time she ever told him her thoughts, Ren Ye lowered his head and stared at her face with a softened expression, "She'll be back."

'Wherever she is…'

Ren Jia didn't speak and snuggled closer to him with her adorable face on his shoulders, pouting her lips and sniffled endearingly.

Ever since he took her to the amusement park, the little girl couldn't stop talking with Ren Ye about how fun it was and how much she enjoyed spending time with him.

"Papa, you remembered and kept your promise to me."

Ren Ye nodded his head and smiled softly, "I have promised and I will do exactly what I have said I would do."

"If possible, I want Mama to come too."

The little girl grinned happily as she swayed her legs and hugged the teddy bear with a content face, Ren Ye was taken aback and thought to himself with a thoughtful expression,

'She mentioned her mother twice today, does that mean she's comfortable with me?'

His eyes lit up and embraced her closer to his chest, his lips curled up in a content smile.

Old Yi snorted softly and blurted out in his head, "Blind idiot."
