What to Do If I Become the Villain's Daughter

With Huo Xiaozheng's orders, the staff immediately sprang into action.

The hairstylist skillfully styled her hair into a princess cut, while the stylist took out the purple dress, ironed it again, and waited to help her change into it.

By the time Huo Ning was fully dressed and made up, an hour had passed.

During this time, Huo Xiaozheng watched for a while before returning to his study to handle business matters.

The Steward was left to oversee everything.

Watching Huo Ning transform from an adorable little dumpling into a dark little princess, the Steward felt nothing but pride, with a touch of "our little girl is growing up" sentiment.

In the mirror, Huo Ning's obedient long black hair had been transformed into a princess cut, adorned with diamond hair accessories on both sides.

She wore a purple U-neck long dress made of a special material that shimmered and sparkled under the lights.

Concerned about the temperature, the stylist paired it with a thick beige coat for warmth.

Huo Ning smiled, and the girl in the mirror smiled back.

Huo Xiaozheng happened to catch this moment and gave her a thumbs up, mouthing "You look beautiful."

Huo Ning turned around with a radiant smile and ran a few steps to Huo Xiaozheng's side.

Huo Xiaozheng had changed into a gray suit, tailored perfectly, exuding an elegant air.

"You look very nice," he repeated.

Receiving the compliment, Huo Ning's smile widened, her eyes crinkling with joy.

Huo Xiaozheng raised his hand, glancing at the watch on his wrist. "It's getting late, we should get going."

He crouched down, picked up Huo Ning, and headed downstairs.

Huo Ning, in high spirits, couldn't help but chatter, "Daddy, why do you always like to carry me?"

After all, she could walk by herself.

Huo Xiaozheng's steps faltered as he imagined his 6'3" frame, hunched over, holding hands with a 3'3" little bean sprout - a scene both humbling and unseemly.

He casually replied, "Because you're still small. As you grow day by day, the time I can carry you will gradually decrease."

Huo Ning stared into his eyes, feeling something was off but unable to put her finger on it.

Huo Xiaozheng subtly averted his gaze.

...

It was the New Year's holiday period, and as they passed through the city center, the crowds were large, causing their car to be stuck in traffic for a while.

Huo Ning remained calm about this, even finding time to draw during the traffic jam.

She drew the crowds, the trees, and the cars.

When she got tired, she would lean against Huo Xiaozheng and rest for a bit.

By the time they reached the Huo Family Ancestral Home, the clock showed 6 PM.

Many cars were parked at the entrance, but Huo Ning, having just woken up, was still groggy and didn't pay much attention.

She nestled on Huo Xiaozheng's shoulder, her coat shielding her from the cold wind outside.

Upon entering the house, the rush of warm air made her drowsy.

Seeing how sleepy she was, Zheng Jinxiu gave Huo Xiaozheng a look, signaling him to take her to rest.
