Chapter 109: Li Beijue, I Don't Want You Anymore

Jiang Baobao said each word distinctly, gritted her teeth as she dropped this sentence, then turned and left without looking back, struggling to suppress the tears that had long since gathered in her eyes.

It was she who had been too naive.

Naive enough to think that the two of them could talk about the children's affairs peacefully.

Naive enough to think that he would show mercy, considering the debt of life she had saved him from back then.

She had been wrong about everything.

Li Beijue was simply a dog of a man who only knew how to use extreme measures and seize things by force!

In the living room—

Li Beijue stood where he was, motionless for a long time.

His gaze was calm as he stared out the window, his ears echoing with the words Jiang Baobao had just left behind.

Love?

His love would only be reserved for that girl who had once saved him, the most gentle and pure girl in this world.

A woman like Jiang Baobao, who calculated with every scheme, was not worthy of his love!

Li Beijue's gaze flickered for a moment, then he turned and strode away.

In the room—

As soon as Jiang Baobao entered, she hurriedly covered her mouth.

She had endured it the entire way, but she truly could not control the tears that were about to break through the dam.

Adjusting her emotions in the darkness, she finally returned to the bedside, groped around to pull the little girl, who was still immersed in her dreams, into her arms, and only then did she finally feel a sense of security.

Everything that had just happened was like a nightmare.

The suffocating feeling made her feel horrified just thinking about it now.

Jiang Baobao reached out to lightly touch her neck, but the pain made her retract her finger instantly.

Yet this touch caused her tears to completely open the floodgates, rolling down from her eyes.

Why?

She had clearly known for a long time that he did not like her, yet she had still liked him for ten years, leaving herself covered in wounds.

Just when she had finally managed to start over, he wanted to snatch away the most important treasure from her side!

Those were the three treasures she had carried for ten months, walked through the gates of hell for, and then had stripped from her own body!

By what right did he want to snatch them away so unreasonably!

He had even wanted her life just now!

If there were a regret pill in this world, she would never have saved him back then!

Then perhaps, everything would be different now...

Jiang Baobao's tears were like beads with a broken string, falling wantonly onto her arms and the bedsheets.

Just as she was about to wipe them away, she suddenly felt a small, soft hand gently land on her face in the darkness.

"Mommy... don't cry anymore..." Tiantian's cautious voice rang out in the darkness.

Jiang Baobao was stunned, her heart skipping a beat instantly.

Oh no... she had made the little girl worry about her...

As Jiang Baobao thought this, she suddenly felt the little girl climb up from the bed.

The next second—

With a "click," the desk lamp was turned on.

The little girl sat upright, and seeing Jiang Baobao's red eyes, she felt heartbroken.

Then she hurriedly pointed to her own lap, speaking like a little adult: "Mommy, is it okay if you lie on my lap? I'll tell Mommy a story, and then Mommy won't cry anymore..."

Jiang Baobao was startled upon hearing this, her heart warmed, and tears rolled down again before she could stop them.

Tiantian was given a huge fright and became even more flustered, hurriedly reaching out her little hands to wipe Jiang Baobao's tears.

Her little mouth didn't stop talking either: "Mommy, don't cry. If you don't like listening to stories, I won't tell them... I know... it was Daddy who made Mommy angry again! Let's ignore him, okay? I will never forgive Daddy for the rest of my life! I only like Mommy!"

"Tiantian..." Jiang Baobao was comforted by the little one, her voice unable to help but take on a sobbing tone again.

"Mommy... you... please don't cry... Tiantian sees you crying, and Tiantian wants to cry too..."

Tiantian's little hands became wet from wiping the tears, and seeing that Jiang Baobao's tears wouldn't stop, she began to shed her own Jin Dou as she spoke.

Jiang Baobao's tears were instantly frightened back, and she immediately scrambled to pick up the little girl, gently patting her back.

"Baby, Mommy isn't crying anymore, don't you cry; a little princess shouldn't shed tears so easily..."

While coaxing the little girl in her arms, Jiang Baobao quickly wiped her tears, struggling to regulate her emotions.

The next second, however, she felt a small hand grip her collar tightly.

Tiantian was sobbing intermittently, and nestled in Jiang Baobao's arms, she said in a muffled, small voice: "Mommy... I heard just now... Daddy was fierce to you... I know, he doesn't like Mommy, and he doesn't like Tiantian either..."

Jiang Baobao's heart ached sharply, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.

All this time, she had not wanted the three treasures to know about her past with Li Beijue.

But the three of them were truly too smart...

Just like today, Tiantian could sensitively perceive even a single look from Li Beijue.

Jiang Baobao sighed and wiped the tears from the little girl in her arms.

Only then did she hold her little hand and say: "Baby, Mommy and Daddy... just don't like each other, so... that's why Daddy doesn't like Mommy..."

"But... if Daddy doesn't like Mommy, why do I and my brothers exist?" The little girl's attention was diverted, and she asked while sniffing.

Jiang Baobao was left between laughter and tears by her question, shook her head, and explained: "The reason for this is very complicated; it's... something between adults. When you grow up, Mommy will tell you again."

Tiantian nodded obediently and did not continue to ask.

Jiang Baobao's expression, however, was somewhat grave; she thought for two seconds and then continued: "Baby, Mommy wants to ask you a question. You must think it over carefully before answering Mommy, okay?"

"Alright, Mommy, go ahead and ask." The little girl nodded obediently in agreement.

Jiang Baobao was silent for two seconds, as if she had decided something, before asking: "Baby, if... you could never see Daddy again in this life, and only Mommy could be with you, would you be willing?"

"I'm willing!!!"

Tiantian gave her answer immediately, almost without thinking.

Jiang Baobao was startled by her decisiveness.

"Baby, you can think about it..."

"No need to think! I don't like Daddy! And I don't need Daddy! As long as I have Mommy, that's enough!"

Tiantian interrupted Jiang Baobao directly, her tone full of certainty.

In Jiang Baobao's heart, it was as if a firework had instantly exploded, and she pulled the little girl tightly into her arms!

How lucky was she to possess such a thoughtful little angel!

"Thank you, baby..."

Her nose couldn't help but feel a bit sore, and she was so moved she didn't know what to say.

Tiantian, however, acted like a little adult, patted Jiang Baobao's shoulder comfortingly, and gave her cheek a heavy kiss.

Jiang Baobao also kissed her little cheek, feeling her mood recover slightly.

The night was already deep.

Jiang Baobao checked the time, pulled over the quilt, and intended to coax Tiantian to sleep.

But she didn't expect that the next second, the little girl would jump straight up from the bed!

With her hands on her hips, she glared unhappily at the doorway and said loudly: "Mommy! I don't want to live in the bad Daddy's house anymore! Let's go home!"
