Chapter 12: Mobai Infuriates Li Beijue

~7 min read 1,314 words

If he had cared for him a little more, would his obsession with his mother have been so heavy?

Li Beijue thought this, sighing in his heart.

Watching the water boil, he put the chopped ingredients inside.

A bowl of noodles was soon cooked; looking at the "result" of his first time cooking, Li Beijue personally carried it into the little guy's room, a feeling called "fatherly love" suddenly sprouting in his heart.

It was just a pity that what was waiting for him in the room was not the usual "obedient son," but a "little devil."

Mobai's stomach had long been growling with hunger, but looking at the bowl of noodles in front of him, he still frowned.

"Is this noodles cooked by Daddy?"

He used his chopsticks to pick up two strands with some disdain, his little face scrunching up into a ball.

"They're all stuck together..."

As he spoke, he flipped over the fried egg on top, his tone even more dissatisfied: "The egg is burnt too! Doesn't Daddy know that eating charred food causes cancer..."

Mobai criticized Li Beijue's "result" until it was shredded, throwing the chopsticks aside.

Then he deliberately pouted and said: "Forget it, if I eat food made by Daddy, I might get food poisoning! I'd better eat something else!"

Li Beijue's temples throbbed, a stifled anger blocking his chest, his fatherly love completely vanished.

Who could tell him why this little guy now had an additional "infuriating" attribute?

Li Beijue took a deep breath, trying hard to warn himself that Yanbao was only like this because he was sick.

"Daddy, what's wrong? Are you angry because I won't eat what you made?" Mobai, not caring if he angered someone to death, deliberately asked again.

Li Beijue immediately waved his hand: "No, if you don't want to eat it, just dump it. Tell Zheng Bo what you want to eat, and have someone prepare it again."

After dropping this sentence, he immediately turned and left, and when passing by Zheng Bo, he couldn't help but whisper: "Call Gu Ruohan and ask him when he'll be back."

Jiang Mobai sat by the bed, rubbing his little stomach that had been hungry for half a day, and made a face at the door.

Hmph!

This was only the first day!

Just wait and see!

On the other side.

Jiang Baobao didn't even dare to call a taxi, instead flagging down a private car and paying someone to take her to a certain Training Base.

The car sped for more than half an hour before stopping in front of a three-story villa.

Jiang Baobao hugged her suitcase, watched the car drive away, and then hurriedly entered the door.

There was no one in the villa; it was empty.

She found a room at random, carried out Yanbao, who had been sleeping the whole way, and placed him on the bed.

"Finally snatched you back..."

Jiang Baobao looked at the little guy in front of her with doting eyes, reaching out to rub his little cheek.

After letting out a sigh of relief, she got up and left, intending to make a cup of coffee to relax.

One hour later—

Yanbao rubbed his eyes and sat up from the bed.

Looking around at the somewhat unfamiliar environment, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

Where is this?

Wasn't he at home before?

Yanbao frowned his little eyebrows in distress and began to think carefully.

A moment later, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He remembered!

Mommy came home to see him!

And then gently coaxed him to sleep...

No!

How could he remember what happened before?

Didn't he usually wake up from a sleep and remember nothing?

Yanbao couldn't help but reach out and knock on his head, discovering that besides being able to remember things before falling asleep, he even remembered what happened last night clearly!

He had talked back to Daddy last night!

And even smashed the medicine bottle!

It's over!

Daddy must be very angry!

Yanbao's heart skipped a beat; he hopped off the bed quickly, pulled open the door, and ran out.

Jiang Baobao was working in the living room when she suddenly heard a sound behind her and hurriedly turned her head.

"Baby! Why did you run out without wearing shoes!" Seeing Yanbao with his bare little feet, she immediately walked over and picked him up.

"Mommy, where's Daddy!" Yanbao was still a bit flustered and asked subconsciously.

Jiang Baobao's expression stiffened.

It had only been one day, and her precious son had changed how he addressed him?

What had Li Beijue said to him?

Damn it!

"Ahem..."

She cleared her throat and deliberately said vaguely: "Isn't it good to be with Mommy?"

Yanbao immediately shut his mouth, his big eyes darting around quickly.

So... is Daddy not here?

He realized something, thought for two seconds, and asked tentatively, "Mommy... where is this?"

Jiang Baobao let out a sigh of relief and sat back down on the sofa holding him: "Did you forget? This is the new Training Base Mommy bought; it's three stories big! In a while, everyone will move in! Things aren't fully stocked here yet, so if you want anything, tell Mommy, and Mommy will go buy it!"

It was a settled matter that her Team was returning to the country, so she had found a quiet place in advance and bought it for everyone to live and train in.

Yanbao nodded obediently, though his heart was full of question marks.

A Training Base...

What is it used for training?

He was afraid of exposing himself again and dared not ask any more questions.

While thinking, he suddenly saw Jiang Baobao open her computer and play a video.

Jiang Baobao kissed Yanbao's little hand and said dotingly, "Mommy has some work to handle, can you wait for Mommy for a moment, baby?"

"Mm-hmm!" Yanbao agreed readily, his gaze instantly captured by the brilliant images on the screen.

Jiang Baobao was watching intently, while also lowering her head to jot something down in a small notebook.

After watching for a while, Yanbao suddenly widened his eyes sharply.

He recognized what this was!

This is the online game that is super popular lately!

There are even competitions for it!

Mommy is studying the videos of the competition players!

So amazing!

Yanbao suddenly seemed to have grasped a little of what Jiang Baobao did, and he instantly revealed a look of admiration.

He watched for a while, noticed some white paper and a pencil nearby, and picked them up casually.

Jiang Baobao was so focused on her work that she didn't notice at all what the little guy was doing.

Only when she finally finished watching the last second did she put down her pen.

"Baby, are you hungry..."

Her words were cut off halfway; looking at the drawing paper in Yanbao's hands, she instantly lost her voice.

Jiang Baobao widened her eyes, simply unable to believe what she was seeing.

To her surprise, the drawing paper in Yanbao's hands actually depicted the map of the competition arena from just a moment ago!

Although it was only a sketch, the lines were outlined very clearly!

One had to know that was the most complex Ancient Roman-style architectural map in the entire game!

Jiang Baobao picked up the drawing paper with a look of shock on her face and rubbed Yanbao's little head in disbelief.

"Baby, aren't you too amazing? When did you learn to draw behind Mommy's back?"

Yanbao's little face stiffened, and his heart skipped a beat.

Oh no!

I just drew it out of habit!

His expression was flustered for a moment, and he hurriedly found an excuse to explain: "I don't know either, Mommy. Isn't drawing a very simple thing? I've just been drawing like this whenever I feel like it lately!"
