Chapter 125: She Looks Very Beautiful When She Smiles

~8 min read 1,418 words

Lu Guohui heard this and let out a cold snort, noncommittal.

"That's why I say you women have such short-sighted vision. The medicine he takes is just in an expensive bottle; inside, it's all just ordinary calcium tablets with no nutritional value. It's fundamentally impossible for it to cure his illness."

Xia Huiya immediately retorted, "Doesn't it also cost money to pay the Doctor? I feel like it's not worth spending a single cent on a fool like that!"

She wore a sour and mean expression. After saying this, she suddenly thought of something and asked with concern, "Why did that girl Jiang Baobao suddenly come back? Could it really be aimed at the Jiang Family's assets? What if she finds out..."

"She won't."

Lu Guohui interrupted Xia Huiya, shaking his head with an inscrutable look.

Xia Huiya, however, remained uneasy: "That's not necessarily true. That girl was going to buy this place today! Doesn't she have a bad relationship with her grandmother's family? Why would she be willing to stand up for them?"

Lu Guohui flicked his cigarette ash, a look of disdain appearing on his face: "Just putting on a show, otherwise why would Old Madam Jiang stand on her side?"

Xia Huiya pondered for two seconds and nodded in agreement.

That's true...

There's no way that girl could possibly come up with one hundred million...

As she thought about this, she suddenly remembered another matter and said anxiously, "Then she must have come back this time for Li Beijue!"

As Xia Huiya spoke, a flash of jealousy crossed her eyes.

Since she was young, she had never been able to compare to her own older sister, Xia Xuerou, in anything.

Whether it was looks, grades, personality, or anything else, she was always a step behind.

Even the person she liked had never let his gaze fall on her for a single second, but instead walked into the halls of marriage hand-in-hand with Xia Xuerou!

In the end, even her daughter couldn't compare to the one Xia Xuerou gave birth to!

Jiang Baobao had good grades since she was a child and was praised by others.

Lu Qing'er, however, was disappointing, with grades that were a complete mess.

But fortunately... that couple deserved to die young!

That girl Jiang Baobao could only be left for her to take care of!

Only then did she have the opportunity to personally end Jiang Baobao's wealthy life!

To destroy, bit by bit, the good daughter raised by her good sister!

But she never expected that she would actually marry into the Li Family!

Xia Huiya recalled the past, a wicked fire igniting in her heart, and she stood up abruptly.

"Do you think it's possible for President Li to take a fancy to our Qing'er?" Xia Huiya suddenly asked, her eyes flashing with a strange light.

Lu Guohui was taken aback by her question. He pondered for a few seconds, his expression somewhat indecisive: "Li Beijue never lets women get close to him. If Qing'er has that ability, our family will have whatever we want in the future."

Upon hearing this, the light in Xia Huiya's eyes grew even brighter. Without another word, she turned and left the study, a bold idea brewing in her mind.

Before, it was snatched away by that lucky slut Jiang Baobao.

This time, no matter what, she had to give Qing'er a chance to get in touch with Li Beijue!

The trash born by Xia Xuerou could not possibly win against her own daughter!

Evening—

Jiang Baobao was thinking about the three little ones. Since it was their first day of school together, she decided to pick them up in person.

She was a bit distracted along the way.

Her uncle's illness... it would be safer to find an expert to take a look at it herself.

And the matter of the company's legal representative... it definitely wasn't that simple!

She must find a way to snatch back what belonged to her uncle!

Jiang Baobao pondered the Jiang Family's affairs all the way until she saw the kindergarten entrance, then hurriedly looked left and right to find a place to park.

She found a corner at random, and seeing that the time was about right, she hurriedly pushed open the car door and ran out.

But she didn't expect that just as she stood at the entrance, she saw a tall figure walking over from the corner of her eye.

"Li Beijue?"

She looked at the man in front of her with some surprise, her expression somewhat astonished.

She thought he was so busy with work that he wouldn't have time to pick them up...

Li Beijue also didn't expect Jiang Baobao to be here. Seeing the surprise on her face, he immediately snorted coldly in his heart.

Of course he would come to pick them up.

Only then could he get closer to Yanbao and Mobai!

Li Beijue thought to himself, hearing the school bell ring inside the kindergarten.

The next second, a group of little ones of similar height darted out from various classrooms with their little backpacks on.

The kindergarten instantly became incredibly lively.

Jiang Baobao stood on tiptoe to look inside the gate, and immediately saw the three little ones running out hand-in-hand.

Leading the charge was the most energetic one, Mobai.

"Babies! Mommy is here! Run slowly!"

Fearing he might accidentally fall, Jiang Baobao hurriedly stepped forward to meet them.

Li Beijue also hurriedly followed, taking the opportunity to pick up Yanbao and Mobai together.

Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment and had no choice but to pick up the neglected little girl.

"Daddy! Did you come with Mommy?"

Yanbao didn't expect to see the two of them standing together as soon as he came out, his expression somewhat excited.

Jiang Baobao was slightly stunned upon hearing this.

Seeing that Li Beijue had no intention of explaining, and not wanting to dampen the little one's spirits, she had to say ambiguously: "You could say that. What do you three want to eat tonight? Mommy will cook in person today!"

"Really! Then I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs!"

As a little glutton, Tiantian was the first to raise her hand without hesitation.

Mobai also followed up by saying loudly, "Mommy! I want to eat braised pork belly!"

"Alright! No problem! Mommy will make them all for you!"

Jiang Baobao smiled and agreed, watching the three little ones beaming with joy.

Immediately, she heard Yanbao ask, "Daddy, is there anything you want to eat?"

"No," Li Beijue answered swiftly.

After saying that, fearing the little one in his arms might be unhappy, he stiffly added, "Daddy isn't a picky eater; I can eat anything."

Jiang Baobao couldn't help but laugh and tease, "Is that so? Then I'll specially make you some stir-fried celery with meat today."

Li Beijue's expression suddenly stiffened.

This woman was doing it on purpose!

She clearly knew that he didn't like any vegetables with strong flavors!

A flash of displeasure crossed Li Beijue's eyes, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw the corners of Jiang Baobao's mouth curl up slightly.

She looked just like some kind of mischievous little animal.

Li Beijue was suddenly stunned, and a strange feeling flashed through his heart.

The way she looked when she smiled was... barely acceptable to look at.

A thought suddenly popped into Li Beijue's mind, but he immediately regained his senses and quickly looked away.

What was he just thinking about?

Forget it.

He couldn't be bothered to waste time bickering with this boring woman!

The family of five returned to Li Mansion together just like that.

As soon as she entered the door, Jiang Baobao dived straight into the kitchen and made a table full of dishes accompanied by the chattering of the three little ones.

Li Beijue sat at the dining table, his gaze sweeping quickly across the tabletop.

Jiang Baobao found it amusing and couldn't help but tease, "Rest assured, I didn't make anything you can't eat!"

Only then did Li Beijue feel relieved; he withdrew his gaze and gave a faint grunt of acknowledgment.

Mobai and Yanbao took in the interaction between the two, couldn't help but exchange a secret look, and giggled to themselves.

Daddy and Mommy's relationship seems to have gotten better!

They can actually joke around now!

If things keep going like this, maybe they really will be able to reconcile soon!
