Chapter 167: Daddy is on a Date with Another Woman

Tiantian was looking down, fiddling with the unicorn doll in her hands, when she saw the three people beside her stop in their tracks out of the corner of her eye, and she couldn't help but look up in confusion.

The next second, she saw a familiar figure across the street.

"Isn't that... Mmph!"

The little girl subconsciously wanted to speak, but before she could finish, Mobai covered her mouth with his hand.

Jiang Baobao stood where she was, not moving, her eyes fixed on the other side of the street without blinking.

She saw a man in a suit and leather shoes standing there, his back turned to them.

Standing beside him was a woman who had just stepped out of a car.

It was none other than Li Beijue, who had said today that he had work to attend to.

Jiang Baobao's gaze flickered for a moment, her eyes slowly falling on the woman beside him, and she suddenly clenched her fists tightly.

Lu Qing'er?

Li Beijue had a lunch date with her today?

Wasn't he very busy with work?

A nameless fire suddenly rose in Jiang Baobao's heart, yet she felt her temper had come for no reason at all.

What did it have to do with her who he was eating with?

But... with so many women in the world, why did he have to take a fancy to Lu Qing'er?

Was Li Beijue doing this on purpose?

Could it be that he wanted to marry Lu Qing'er and make her a stepmother to his three treasures?

At the mere thought of this possibility, Jiang Baobao felt even more furious, and she felt a bit nauseated.

That woman Lu Qing'er was not worthy!

She would definitely not be good to her children!

Just as Jiang Baobao was thinking this, the next second she saw Lu Qing'er, who was walking beside Li Beijue, sway suddenly!

Li Beijue reacted quickly, hurriedly reaching out to steady her, and the two were almost leaning against each other, the distance between them extremely ambiguous.

It was unclear what Li Beijue said, but Lu Qing'er shook her head, and her hand just happened to rest on his arm as they walked into the restaurant opposite together, disappearing from Jiang Baobao's sight.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment.

Jiang Baobao blinked, her mind still a bit of a mess.

Immediately after, she heard Mobai beside her say loudly and angrily, "Isn't Daddy going too far? He's not spending Mommy's birthday with her today, but is eating with another woman instead!"

Yanbao was also very angry; he opened his mouth, but swallowed his words back, his little face looking serious and his lips pressed tightly together.

Jiang Baobao snapped back to reality, hurriedly collecting her emotions to soothe the little ones beside her, saying, "Didn't your daddy say he had work to attend to today? That lady might be his business partner..."

"That's not it! That lady was just holding onto Daddy's arm when they went in! I saw it!"

Mobai immediately retorted loudly, his face written with displeasure.

Jiang Baobao was rarely stumped by the little one, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Tiantian also said angrily, "I told you Daddy was annoying! He must have deliberately not come out with us today just to eat with that lady! And he lied to us saying he was busy with work!"

The little girl looked indignant; she hadn't liked Li Beijue much to begin with, and at this moment, she looked even more disdainful.

Mobai and Yanbao exchanged glances, both not knowing what to say for a moment.

Seeing the three of them so angry, Jiang Baobao hurriedly persuaded them patiently, "It doesn't matter if Daddy doesn't come. Isn't it fun for Mommy to play with you all?"

"Of course we're happy!" Mobai answered immediately.

After saying that, he looked at the other side of the street again, unwilling to let it go, and said indignantly, "But I think Tiantian is right! Daddy did it on purpose! And he lied to us saying he was busy with work!"

The little one grew angrier as he spoke, and as soon as he finished, he actually started walking forward with large strides, saying, "I'm going to find Daddy! Make him eat lunch with us!"

"Mobai!!!" Jiang Baobao was given a huge fright and hurriedly reached out to grab Mobai's arm, feeling a mix of laughter and tears for a moment.

Were these little ones too worried about her and Li Beijue's affairs?

It didn't matter whether Li Beijue came for her birthday or not!

They had long since divorced!

Jiang Baobao shook her head helplessly in her heart, and thinking that it was Lu Qing'er with Li Beijue just now, she felt a bit troubled.

Still, she patiently persuaded him, "Mobai, today is Mommy's birthday; it doesn't matter if Daddy is here or not. If you're obedient, just go eat with Mommy, and we'll all be just as happy, won't we?"

Mobai blinked and didn't speak.

Yanbao also looked at the restaurant across the street with some hesitation.

Only Tiantian was indifferent; she directly reached out and grabbed Mobai and Yanbao, deliberately saying loudly, "Exactly! So what if Daddy isn't here? You two are here to spend Mommy's birthday with her today! Not to spend it with Daddy!"

Hearing this, Mobai and Yanbao had no choice but to stop talking and be dragged by Tiantian, one on each side, and shoved into the car.

"Mommy! Done! Let's go eat! I'm about to starve to death!"

Tiantian clapped her hands, smiled triumphantly at Jiang Baobao, and jumped straight into the car.

In the back seat, Mobai and Yanbao could only glance helplessly at the restaurant across the street.

Today was Jiang Baobao's birthday, and they didn't want to make her unhappy.

Jiang Baobao sat in the driver's seat alone, the look on her face no longer able to maintain its previous ease.

She glanced expressionlessly at the other side of the street, then stepped on the accelerator.

Her mind was filled with the image of Lu Qing'er leaning on Li Beijue just now.

Jiang Baobao's gaze flickered for a moment, and she let out a cold snort in her heart.

No wonder that dog of a man, Li Beijue, suddenly appeared at the Jiang Family Villa that day.

So it was all for Lu Qing'er.

He even spoke up for Lu Qing'er and interfered in her family affairs!

The more Jiang Baobao thought about it, the angrier she felt. She didn't want the three little ones behind her to notice anything unusual, so she quickly closed her eyes and cast these troublesome matters to the back of her mind.

Not long after, the car pulled to a stop in front of a restaurant with excellent decor and an antique, elegant style.

Mobai and Yanbao had already adjusted their moods on the way, and the unhappy expressions on their faces had long since vanished without a trace.

Tiantian, meanwhile, displayed her usual specialty; she stood at the entrance, took a deep breath, and said excitedly, "Mommy! This place smells so good! The hot pot today is definitely going to be delicious!"

Jiang Baobao was amused by her little glutton act and hurriedly led the three little ones inside, requesting a private room in the corner.

"Alright! No thinking about unhappy things while eating! Today is Mommy's happiest day! You three, hurry up and order!"

Jiang Baobao pushed the menu in front of the three little ones and smiled, pretending to be nonchalant.

The three little ones also cooperated fully, lowering their heads to study the menu.

Not long after—

The door to the private room was knocked on.

Jiang Baobao took the initiative to get up to open the door, but to her surprise, when the door pulled open, she saw a strange man holding an exquisite paper box.

"Hello, this is the cake ordered by Mr. Jiang."

The man spoke up proactively.

Jiang Baobao was suddenly caught between laughter and tears.

"Alright, give it to me." She reached out to take the cake and then closed the door.

Immediately, she turned around with a smile and asked, "Little Mr. Jiang? Just how many more surprises have you prepared for Mommy?"

Mobai looked at the cake in his hands, his expression suddenly becoming somewhat subtle.

Yanbao also suddenly thought of something, a hint of nervousness flashing through his eyes.
