By the beach.

"Eh? This song doesn't sound right?"

"Yeah, it doesn't sound like the original version?"

"Yup, some parts of the song sound different. The piano melody isn't right either."

"But there's only one version of 'Legend.' That man has only sung it once before."

"It's probably a cover by someone?"

"Could it be an impersonator singing?"

"Now that you mention it, this voice really sounds like that guy's."

"Right, it's too alike."

"The contestants in the impersonation shows these days are amazing."

After listening for a while and chatting about it with laughter, everyone dispersed and went back to their own activities like swimming or playing with their children. No one really took it seriously. But no one could have thought that this song was actually being sung by Zhang Ye himself. No one could have thought that Zhang Ye had actually returned!

No one outside could have expected it!

And neither could those who were inside!

In the villa.

Zhang Ye and Wu Zeqing stood face to face.

After more than three years, their family was finally reunited.

He looked at her.

She looked at him.

She asked, "You're back?"

He said, "I'm back."

This familiar face was still as gentle and beautiful as ever.

Zhang Ye sniffed and said with a smile, "Why do you still look the same?"

Wu Zeqing also smiled. "You've not changed either."

"That's for sure." Zhang Ye laughed and said, "I've been eating and sleeping well. Mom even remarked that I seemed to have put on weight."

Wu Zeqing said, "Why were you released three years ahead of schedule?"

His mother said, "He said that he made some contributions to the country, so he got a sentence reduction. Who knows what he has been doing? This kid is always blowing smoke and never speaks truthfully."

Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "It's good that you're back."

His father also said happily, "Right, it's good as long as you're back!"

His mother suddenly slapped her thigh. "We have to quickly inform your grandpa and grandma. And your uncles, cousins, and aunts. Everyone misses you so much!"

Zhang Ye hurriedly waved them off. "Mom, don't do that yet. We'll be going back to Beijing in some days anyway, so I'll definitely go and pay them all a visit. Don't tell anyone about this yet. If the news gets out, I won't have a moment of peace. I still wish to spend this holiday happily with you all."

His mother scoffed, "Kid, don't be overthinking things. If the news gets out? Do you still think that you're the same old Heavenly King? You've left the entertainment circle for more than three years. Do you know what the world has become? Do you know how advanced technology has become? Do you know that the entertainment circle has been turned upside down? There are too many celebrities these days, and most of them are young hunks. The media can't even handle the number of newcomers entering the industry these days, so who would care about you?"

Zhang Ye smiled and said, "True that."

His father asked, "Now that you're back, are you still thinking of getting back to the entertainment circle?"

Zhang Ye nodded.

His father said, "But—"

Zhang Ye grinned and said, "We'll talk about it again in the future."

He did not want to talk about anything related to work right now. All he wanted to do was to take a break for a while and not do or think about anything at all. He just wanted to spend time with his family.

At this moment, Wu Zeqing suddenly remembered something.

His parents also facepalmed when they thought of an important matter.

The child! They had totally forgotten about the child!

Zhang Ye had never met his child before, and neither had his child met her father!

Wu Zeqing turned around and said, "Sisi, come here."

Sisi?

Zhang Ye swept his gaze to the corner where a little girl stood. She was so adorable. Her nose, eyes, and chin were exactly just like Old Wu's. She looked like she was an exact replica of her mother and seemed to have a very quiet personality. The cheeks on her little face were flushed and her large eyes were staring at Zhang Ye. Zhang Ye's heart melted. He could feel his legs turning to rubber. It was like he was floating.

This is my daughter?

This is my daughter?

Zhang Ye took two quick steps forward.

Seeing this, Sisi hid behind Wu Zeqing. She clutched her mother's long dress and pressed her little head against her mother's leg. She wouldn't come forward no matter what they said.

Zhang Ye stopped in his tracks. He was also extremely nervous.

Wu Zeqing caressed her daughter's head with the back of her hand. "This is Daddy."

Sisi looked down and stayed quiet.

Zhang Ye's mother said in amusement, "Heh, this child."

His father also said, "Aren't you always asking when your daddy will be back? Now that he is back to see Sisi, why don't you say Daddy?"

Wu Zeqing patted her head and said, "Quick, say Daddy."

Zhang Ye's heart was pounding. "Daughter."

Sisi's head poked out warily from the side of her mother's leg as she stole a glance at Zhang Ye. Seeing him also looking at her, Sisi got scared and quickly turned around not knowing what to do and ran back into the bedroom.

"Sisi!"

"Where are you off to?"

"Come back."

Zhang Ye's parents were calling for her.

Wu Zeqing said, "I'll go and get her to come out."

Zhang Ye said, "No need, no need, it will take time."

His mother pondered and said, "You're right. The child must be scared now that her father has popped up out of nowhere."

Zhang Ye said in a speechless manner, "What do you mean by popping up out of nowhere? Why would you put it like that?"

His mother laughed and said, "It's your fault for messing around and getting yourself locked up. Otherwise, if you had accompanied the child since her birth, would she not acknowledge you?"

Zhang Ye rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, did you keep talking bad about me in front of my daughter during these three years that I wasn't around?"

His mother said, "I was just speaking the truth."

Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "Sisi is just shy. I'll go and look at her."

Zhang Ye rubbed his hands together and said, "Alright, help me find out what's wrong, Old Wu."

He quietly followed behind but did not enter the bedroom. He stood outside the door and peeked in.

Sisi had burrowed herself under the bed's blankets.

Wu Zeqing turned around and shook her head with a smile at Zhang Ye, then lifted the corner of the blankets and had a look inside. "Sisi, what are you doing? Are you sleeping this early in the morning? Daddy has come back, so why are you running away?"

Zhang Ye's mother also went into the room. "Granddaughter, where are you?"

A voice came from under the blankets. "Nana, I'm under the covers."

Zhang Ye's mother said, "Oh, you're hiding under the covers?"

Sisi said, "Mhm."

Zhang Ye's mother said in amusement, "Is your daddy so scary?"

Sisi did not say anything.

Wu Zeqing reached her hand in and patted her daughter on the head. "Is it because you can't believe that Daddy is back?"

Sisi said, "Mhm."

Zhang Ye's mother said, "That's your daddy, your father."

Wu Zeqing said, "That's right, would Nana lie to you?"

Sisi said, "The teachers at preschool all say that my daddy is the greatest celebrity in Asia."

Wu Zeqing smiled. "Is it because he doesn't look great to you?"

Sisi said, "Mhm."

Zhang Ye was floored.

I'm not great?

I'm just keeping a low profile, alright!

When I'm great, I even scare myself with how great I can be!

Wu Zeqing smiled. "Silly girl, Daddy's greatness isn't something that you can see from his looks. When your daddy was calling the shots years ago, today's big shots were not even known. At that time, whenever your daddy's name was mentioned, even demons would shiver in fright."

Zhang Ye's mother echoed, "Even the monsters would avoid meeting with your daddy."

Eh?

Why does this sound like he was being scolded?

Zhang Ye saw red. Is this how you all have been introducing me to my daughter all these years?!

Monsters?

Demons?

It's no wonder my child is so afraid of me!

Even I would fucking panic if I heard something like that!
