Zhou Lin, the famous “King of Hell” factory director, had been single for thirty years. His fearsome presence was enough to scare children into silence.

Who would have thought that during a business trip out of town, he’d somehow snatch a filthy, four-year-old mute girl from a human trafficker?

The whole residential compound was abuzz, with everyone secretly betting on how many days it would take before he dumped this “burden.”

But Zhou Lin not only became both father and mother to her, he spoiled the little dumpling rotten!

Even more astonishing, there was something unusual about the little girl!

Were her casual doodles actually blueprints for a new machine tool? Had she molded a model of a polymer material out of mud?

Watching national-level experts line up to bring gifts to the family compound, Zhou Lin sank into thought:

“I only wanted to raise a daughter to look after me when I’m old. How did I end up raising a pillar of the nation?”

The neighbors were green with envy. “Is it too late to go find a child of our own?”

(Note: The early chapters focus on everyday child-rearing, while the later story is about serving the country. A healing father-daughter bond, with no romance or only a background romance much later.)
