VHBF – Chapter 14 The Playboy Daddy (Part 14)

Early in the morning, Weibo exploded.

The long-neglected official account of the Luo Group suddenly posted a new update.

Unlike the usual formal tone of corporate accounts, this one was cheeky and playful: “Our young master is going to be a daddy!”

The post was accompanied by a photo of a household registration booklet and a family photo of four.

A chubby little girl in a pink princess dress, with a round, plump face and delicate, adorable features, smiled sweetly at the camera.

She sat on the shoulders of a roguishly handsome young man, forming a V sign with one hand while using her other chubby little hand to grab his hand and form another V together.

The young man looked slightly impatient, standing lazily with a faint frown on his handsome face.

But observant netizens quickly noticed that his other hand was protectively holding the girl’s chubby waist to prevent her from falling.

This move amused netizens, who joked that while his mouth said “no,” his body was very honest—a textbook example of a tsundere new daddy!

Most thought the account would blur the faces, but surprisingly, they were shown clearly. In the comment section, the admin even replied bluntly that she was the Luo Group’s little princess!

The comment section of the Luo Group’s post was instantly flooded!

Netizens swarmed in, asking:

“Who’s this suddenly revealed little princess?”

“Never heard that Young Master Luo got married or had a kid?”

Some people gushed with envy, saying the chubby little girl was so adorable and expressed jealousy towards the Luo Group’s heir.

“A family of four and all good-looking! But… who’s the young madam of the Luo family? Why didn’t she appear in the photo?”

“Could she be an illegitimate child?”

“Would they publicly post an illegitimate child so openly?”

Curiosity spread like wildfire. Even though it was work hours, the comment count broke several thousand in minutes and reached tens of thousands by midday.

After that initial post, the official Luo Group account went silent again. Just as everyone was starting to think this mystery would remain unsolved, several comments began popping up:

“OMG OMG GO CHECK IT OUT—The Bai Group just posted!!”

“What’s the Bai Group got to do with this?”

Driven by curiosity, people flocked over to look.

And then—BOOM!

Bai Group Official Account: “Our shared little princess. @LuoGroup: Our young master is going to be a daddy!”

Though neither post explicitly explained who the little princess was, the back-and-forth was enough for many to piece together the truth.

“So… the Luo Group’s little princess is actually the Bai family’s three-year-old heir that was in the news?”

“WHAT?! The Bai family’s little princess was adopted by Young Master Luo?!”

“Don’t forget—those greedy Bai relatives did a bunch of vile, self-destructive things just to snatch her inheritance. They’re in jail now! So no one in the Bai family could adopt her!”

Most netizens didn’t care about the details—they just screamed about how adorable the little girl was.

Soft and fluffy like a little glutinous rice ball, her features were exquisite, and her smile made her look like a sweet little angel.

Especially when she appeared next to Young Master Luo—the contrast was so drastic it created an unexpectedly cute dynamic.

Of course, the haters didn’t stay silent.

Some dug into the young master’s past. While the last three years he was abroad were hard to investigate, his earlier history was well-known.

He was a notorious troublemaker growing up—fighting, drag racing, bullying in school—it wasn’t uncommon for tabloids to pick up stories about him.

Some netizens began expressing concern, commenting under the Bai Group’s post:

“Can a spoiled rich playboy like him really be a good father? Are you seriously entrusting your little princess to a guy who only knows how to party and waste money?”

Soon, Weibo’s trending topics were stacked:

• #OurSharedLittlePrincess (Rank 1)
• #PlayboyDaddy
• #LuoGroupStatement
• #BaiFamilyHeirPickedUpByLuo

The second tag, #PlayboyDaddy, quickly gained traction and even threatened to overtake the top spot.

Many people were criticizing the Bai Group’s executives, accusing them of irresponsibility for entrusting their precious three-year-old heir to someone with such a wild history. What if he squandered the Bai family fortune too?

What began as rational concern slowly escalated. With keyboard warriors joining the fray, the wholesome family post turned into a battlefield filled with gunpowder and vitriol.

Luo Sheng—only son of the Luo Group’s chairman—was young, handsome, and rich. But he also had a string of black marks in his history. A classic playboy. Naturally, this made him the perfect target for anti-rich sentiments.

Harsh comments poured in, tearing him apart. Some even claimed the Luo family adopted the little girl for her inheritance, just like the Bai family’s greedy relatives.

“Why else would Luo Sheng, a man who’s neither married nor a father, bring home a child to raise?”

“@BaiGroup, better be careful. Don’t be surprised if one day her surname gets changed.”

“@BaiGroup, he’s a playboy after all. Aren’t you worried he’ll lead the child astray? Hurry and take her back before it’s too late!”

Even neutral passersby were starting to doubt the wisdom of the adoption.

Just when the trolls thought they’d found Luo Sheng’s weak spot and were bombarding him from all sides—the man himself appeared.

A new account called @LuoShengYourUncle posted a Weibo update, which was then reposted by the Luo Group’s official account. People rushed over to see, and the account instantly gained tens of thousands of followers.

The post read:

LuoShengYourUncle: “Tch. I’ll raise her if I damn well please. What the hell’s it got to do with any of you?”

Netizens:

“HOLY SHIT!!!”

Trolls:

“….”

“This dude’s got balls. Actually kinda… cool?”

“Tch, looks like someone’s pissed off now!”

“Admit it. A playboy like him just can’t raise kids. Don’t corrupt our nation’s little flower!”

Luo Sheng, his face dark, sat there furiously typing responses on his tablet, fighting fire with fire in the comments. Before long, netizens nicknamed him “Savage Clapback Daddy.”

Meanwhile, Yinyin was playing with toys on the couch beside him. Sensitive as ever, she noticed his bad mood and dropped her toy to tug his hand.

“Daddy!”

Luo Sheng looked down at her and met her clear, innocent eyes—and somehow, he smiled.

A lazy grin tugged at the corner of his lips. He reached out and patted her fuzzy little head.

“Tch. What’s so hard about raising a kid?”

“Daddy, what did you say?”

“Nothing.”

“You messed up my hair, Daddy!”

He paused, looked at her messy hair, and thought for a moment.

Fine. Let’s start this whole “parenting” thing with doing her hair.

“Daddy, what are you doing?”

“Doing your hair.”

Yinyin’s eyes lit up, and she obediently lay across his lap.

“Daddy, do it!”

The man stared at the pink butterfly hair tie in his hand for a long time before clumsily starting.

Yinyin’s hair was baby-fine and short—too thin to tie neatly. He could only grab a section in the middle.

After several failed attempts, he finally tied a crooked, lopsided little ponytail at the top of her head—a tiny sprout standing up like an antenna. Combined with her adorable little face, it was ugly… but in a cute way.

Yinyin touched her new hairstyle and smiled in satisfaction.

“Daddy, you’re the best!”

When Mrs. Luo came downstairs and saw it, she was both amused and exasperated. She tried to redo it but Yinyin protested:

“It’s not ugly! It’s beautiful! Daddy did a great job!”

Luo Sheng’s lips twitched. But when he looked at the lopsided ponytail on her head, he frowned again, remembering those harsh comments online:

“A playboy like him can’t even take care of himself—how could he care for a child?”

Unless it was a huge scandal, the Luo family never bothered with online noise. The three of them lived peacefully, while little Yinyin, barely literate, had no idea what was happening at all.

Mrs. Luo was busy planning Yinyin’s birthday banquet. Her third birthday had arrived, and she intended to host a grand celebration—inviting everyone in their circle.

On one hand, it was to counteract the recent scandal and bring in some good fortune. On the other, it was also the perfect opportunity to introduce her adorable little granddaughter to society!

She felt like she had discovered a priceless treasure and couldn’t wait to show it off. Especially to her usual rivals who always bragged about their own grandchildren—this would make them green with envy!
