Chapter 155: Should Change How I Address You to Husband

Jiang Baobao very much wanted to turn around and leave immediately.

But thinking that he was, after all, a member of the Li Family, she had no choice but to patiently stay behind.

Yet she still refused, saying: "I'm sorry, I don't think we have anything to talk about. It's breezy here, and I need to take the children back."

As Jiang Baobao spoke, she pulled the two little ones and prepared to leave.

But just as she took a step, Li Beichen suddenly reached out his hand to block her.

"What's the rush... let's chat..."

His tone carried a hint of teasing, and his gaze ambiguously swept up and down Jiang Baobao's entire body.

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath; feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, a flash of annoyance crossed her eyes.

Is this Li Beichen crazy?

He's drunk and actually came to harass her?

She held her patience, pulled the two little ones back slightly, and stiffly reminded him: "The elders are still inside. If you are drunk, it would be best to go back to your room to rest."

Upon hearing this, Li Beichen didn't move at all; instead, he began to laugh.

"Haha... why are you... so fierce? Anyway, you were my big brother's woman once, and in the future... we will be one family..."

As Li Beichen spoke, he actually reached out his hand, intending to grab Jiang Baobao's wrist!

The next second—

The two little ones instantly blocked the way in front of Jiang Baobao.

Yanbao and Mobai both kept their faces tight, looking at Li Beichen with dissatisfied expressions.

Yanbao even spoke up directly to question him: "Little Uncle, what do you want to do to my Mommy?"

"What do I want to do?" Li Beichen's expression became somewhat amused, and a flash of ruthlessness suddenly crossed his eyes as he looked at Yanbao.

The way this brat looks right now is exactly the same as that guy Li Beijue!

Do they think they're so great?

It was as if a ball of fire was burning in Li Beichen's heart; without a second thought, he reached out, grabbed Yanbao's wrist, and yanked him to the side!

"When adults are talking, why is a child like you interrupting! If I say a few words to your mommy, what could I possibly do to her?"

Yanbao was yanked until he stumbled.

Jiang Baobao was instantly furious and stepped forward to give Li Beichen a hard shove!

"Li Beichen! You had better get lost and go back immediately! I have nothing to say to you!"

Jiang Baobao clenched her fists tightly, looking at him with annoyance, trying her best to suppress her anger.

This is the Li Family... making a scene here wouldn't be good for anyone.

Jiang Baobao warned herself in her heart and hurriedly turned around to check on Yanbao's condition.

Seeing that he wasn't hurt, she felt a bit more at ease, though she was still furious inside.

What kind of madness is Li Beichen having today?

She wasn't even close to him to begin with; what was there to talk about!

Li Beichen lingered on the spot, his eyes still staring straight at Jiang Baobao.

He then asked with a smile: "Are you... angry? You look quite spirited... when you're angry..."

Jiang Baobao was stunned upon hearing this; listening to his greasy tone, she suddenly felt a bit nauseated.

This person is just a hooligan!

To actually dare to act like this in the Li Family!

She didn't intend to save any more face for him and was just about to speak, when at that moment—

"Beichen."

A familiar male voice suddenly came from not far away.

Jiang Baobao subconsciously raised her eyes and looked in the direction the voice came from.

Then she saw Li Xiao, who had appeared from who knows where.

His expression wasn't the playful, grinning look he had in front of everyone earlier, but instead carried a slight solemnity.

Li Beichen was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting anyone to be there, and his drunkenness cleared by more than half in an instant.

Li Xiao looked at him indifferently for a few seconds, a flash of disdain crossing his eyes.

He then said in a deep voice: "You are drunk; go back and rest. Don't make me say it a second time."

His tone was calm, and although there was no sign of displeasure, those deep black eyes made people instinctively afraid to look directly at him.

The air pressure around him also became terrifyingly low in an instant, bringing out a hint of murderous aura.

Li Beichen shuddered subconsciously.

Coming to his senses, he seemed to want to say something.

But meeting Li Xiao's gaze, he didn't dare to say another word and immediately slunk away, striding toward the direction of the villa's Main Hall.

Watching him walk away, Jiang Baobao finally let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Li Xiao, who was to the side: "Mr. Li, thank you."

"Why so distant with your address?" Li Xiao returned to his previous playful and cynical expression, with no trace of the solemnity from just a moment ago.

Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment, a flash of confusion crossing her eyes.

If she hadn't seen wrong just now, Li Xiao really didn't look like his usual playful self...

Moreover, the place where he stood up seemed to be right next to a flower bed, where there was a lounge chair.

He must have heard Li Beichen talking to her for a while, and finally, unable to listen any longer, he used his status as an elder to suppress him.

If his expression was a bit solemn, that didn't seem abnormal at all...

As Jiang Baobao thought this, she then heard Li Xiao tease: "Given your current relationship with Beijue, shouldn't you call me Little Uncle, just like him?"

"Huh?" Jiang Baobao didn't react for a moment.

Seeing her dazed expression, Li Xiao's smile grew even wider.

He waved his hand casually and then changed the subject, saying, "Forget it, there's still time to change how you address me later. I'm going back to chat with the old man."

He left those words behind and turned to walk away.

Halfway there, he suddenly stopped, turned to look at Jiang Baobao, and asked, "Today's matter was Li Beichen being abrupt. On his behalf and on behalf of the Li Family, I apologize to you. Do you need me to mention what just happened to the old man and Beijue?"

"No need," Jiang Baobao answered without hesitation.

She probably wouldn't come here again in the future, nor would she see Li Beichen again.

There was no need to stir up any unnecessary trouble.

Besides... even if she said something, nothing had really happened between the two of them, and Li Xinghua and Qin Wanqing would surely defend Li Beichen.

After all, she was an outsider.

Jiang Baobao understood this very clearly.

Hearing this, Li Xiao didn't say anything more; he simply nodded and then left.

The surroundings returned to silence.

Jiang Baobao sat down on a bench with the two little ones and suddenly felt a bit tired.

Mobai pulled her hand, puzzled, and asked, "Mommy, why didn't you tell Daddy and Great-Grandpa about what just happened? Yanbao and I can both testify for you!"

Mobai's little face was puffed up with anger; thinking about how Yanbao had been yanked just now made him furious.

Yanbao also asked, puzzled, "Yeah, Mommy, why didn't you tell Daddy?"

Jiang Baobao sighed in her heart and rubbed the little heads of the two little ones.

"Because..."

Jiang Baobao paused, trying hard to find a suitable answer in her mind.

After thinking for a moment, she said, "Because Great-Grandpa is very happy today, and talking about this would make him unhappy. Mommy wasn't hurt either; it's just that I feel bad for Yanbao, being yanked by him for no reason..."

Jiang Baobao looked at Yanbao's fair, tender little wrist with some heartache.

Yanbao immediately shook his head and said obediently, "Mommy, I'm fine!"

Jiang Baobao smiled and couldn't help but look back in the direction of the Main Hall, a flash of hostility crossing her eyes.

She would let that Li Beichen off for today!

If she ran into him again next time, she would definitely make him pay dearly!
