Chapter 117: Daddy Has Become Gentle
The bedroom was silent.
Jiang Baobao watched Li Beijue nervously, terrified that he might say something unpleasant in front of the three children in the next second.
But to her surprise, he said nothing at all, simply walking in with Yanbao and Tiantian.
Then, he looked at Mobai with concern and asked, "Mobai, do you feel better?"
Mobai was stunned for a moment, then nodded gently, a trace of confusion flashing in his large eyes.
Daddy didn't get angry when he heard he was leaving?
As he thought this, he suddenly felt a large hand cover his forehead.
Li Beijue tested the temperature on Mobai's forehead, only then feeling completely at ease.
Seeing Mobai's little hand clutching Jiang Baobao tightly, he pondered for two seconds before saying in a low voice, "I still have work to handle. If anything comes up, have Yanbao or Zheng Bo come to the study to find me."
"Okay, goodbye Daddy..."
Mobai replied subconsciously, watching Li Beijue leave the room and listening to him walk away, before looking at Jiang Baobao in disbelief and asking, "Mommy! Why is Daddy's temper suddenly so good?"
Jiang Baobao was also somewhat surprised; the other party's change was so significant that she was barely satisfied with it in her heart.
She smiled and answered gently, "Isn't it good that his temper has improved?"
Mobai replied immediately, "Of course it's good! It's just..."
The little guy hesitated for two seconds halfway through his sentence.
Only then did he continue, "It's just that it makes people feel a bit unaccustomed to it, right, Yanbao?"
"Mm, it seems like a little bit..." Yanbao blinked, agreeing completely with Mobai's assessment.
What on earth did Daddy and Mommy talk about?
How did Daddy suddenly become so gentle...
Watching the two little ones looking completely baffled, Jiang Baobao couldn't help but laugh out loud, a plan suddenly forming in her mind.
Although that person seemed to have changed a little, the fact that he had wanted to take her life that night wouldn't be forgotten so easily!
Didn't he want children?
Then she would have to see just how far he could go...
"Mobai, do you remember the thing you always wanted to do?"
Jiang Baobao suddenly winked mysteriously at Mobai.
Mobai was a bit confused, thought for two seconds, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mommy, what thing? There are too many things I want to do!"
Jiang Baobao couldn't hold back the smile on her face and whispered a reminder, "It's that thing you saw in the cartoon before, where the little kid and Daddy..."
As soon as she said this, the little guy understood immediately, his eyes lighting up fiercely!
"I know! Mommy means the little kid on TV who can ride on Daddy's shoulders!"
Jiang Baobao immediately rubbed his little head with satisfaction and said solemnly, "Right! Haven't you always wanted to try how that feels?"
Upon hearing this, Mobai hesitated, "But... Daddy definitely won't be willing..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Yanbao also whispered, "Mommy... is that really fun? I want to try it too, but Daddy will definitely get angry, right?"
Jiang Baobao shook her head with amusement, "Why would he get angry? This is a very normal thing. If you two bring it up and Daddy doesn't agree, then so be it, but I think he probably won't refuse."
"Then I want to too!" Tiantian, who had been jumping around on the side, finally couldn't help but raise her little hand, her expression eager to try.
Although she didn't like the bad Daddy, if her brothers could ride on Daddy's shoulders, then she wanted to as well!
Jiang Baobao raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but reach out and flick the little girl's forehead.
"You want to too? Then I'm afraid your Daddy will have a hard time this afternoon..."
Jiang Baobao nodded with satisfaction and deliberately crooked her finger, beckoning the three little ones to gather around.
"After we finish lunch in a little while, we will..."
She whispered her "conspiracy" to the three little ones, a look of excitement and cunning flashing in her eyes.
Hmph!
If she didn't put Li Beijue through the wringer today, she wasn't Jiang Baobao!
Did he think that taking care of children only required making sure they were fed and watered?
It was far more than that!
Lunchtime—
Li Beijue originally didn't want to go downstairs, but thinking of his promise to Jiang Baobao to try to appear harmonious in front of the children, he sat down with them anyway.
He sat at the dining table, and thinking of the scene from the day before where the children scrambled to put food in Jiang Baobao's bowl, he felt uncomfortable again.
Just as he was thinking this, he saw a piece of fish suddenly appear in the plate in front of him.
"Daddy, eat some fish."
Yanbao looked at Li Beijue obediently and had taken the initiative to serve him food.
Li Beijue felt a warmth in his heart, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Immediately after, he heard Yanbao suggest, "Daddy, after we finish lunch in a little while, will you accompany us to the garden in the back? Grandpa Zheng said the swing in the back has already been cleaned up!"
Li Beijue pondered for two seconds, threw his work to the back of his mind, and agreed readily, "Of course I can."
Yanbao smiled happily and served Li Beijue another piece of meat.
Jiang Baobao listened silently from the side, and seeing Li Beijue agree, she couldn't help but exchange a look with Mobai, who was sitting opposite her, revealing a knowing smile.
The plan was a success!
Li Beijue could just wait to receive the challenge!
After lunch, Yanbao couldn't wait to have Zheng Bo prepare snacks and fruit tea, which were taken directly to the garden in the back.
Li Beijue even pushed aside all his work, intending to properly relax with Yanbao and Mobai.
In the garden, there was a specially arranged area for shade, as well as a swing entwined with flowers.
Jiang Baobao used to like sitting here when she was bored; looking at the familiar surroundings, her mood was momentarily somewhat subtle.
Tiantian sat beside her and also liked the scenery here immensely.
After only a few minutes of sitting quietly, she couldn't sit still anymore and jumped down from the chair.
"Mommy, I want to go play on the swing!"
The little girl's eyes had never left that flower-covered swing, and she couldn't help but look at it with longing.
Jiang Baobao smiled dotingly, nodded, and agreed, "Then go play; come back if you feel hot."
"Okay!" Tiantian agreed, quickly turned her head, and ran toward the garden.
"We're going too!" Mobai and Yanbao immediately followed close behind, catching up in unison.
Li Beijue walked over and saw the scene of Mobai and Yanbao pushing the swing for Tiantian; his expression immediately darkened.
His sons were pushing a swing for the daughter Jiang Baobao had with someone else?
A trace of displeasure flashed in Li Beijue's eyes; he stepped forward two paces and was just about to speak, when at that moment—
"Li Beijue, do you still remember what you promised me? It was Mobai and Yanbao who went over on their own initiative; the three of them like playing together."
Jiang Baobao's tone was slightly cold as she "reminded" Li Beijue.
Li Beijue's expression stiffened; he was silent for two seconds, but in the end, he said nothing and sat down with a straight face.
Seeing this, Jiang Bao could not help but let the corners of her lips curl up slightly.
As expected, having the initiative is just different!
Making Li Beijue eat humble pie is just too satisfying!
