Chapter 19: The Secret of the Two Sons

Li Beijue paused slightly upon hearing this, his expression somewhat helpless.

He had always been strict in his guidance of Yanbao, naturally hoping that he could be more steady.

Being like this now was truly a bit too mischievous, and even resistant to discipline.

Gu Ruohan raised an eyebrow, instantly seeing through what he was thinking, and couldn't help but laugh: "I don't think there's anything wrong with this kind of personality. Yanbao has always been like a little adult, but a child should be just like he is now. My suggestion is... observe for a period of time first..."

As he spoke, his gaze swept up and down over Li Beijue, and he continued: "Also, his resistance toward you is so strong right now; why don't you find a way to ease your relationship with him and let him trust you completely? Only then can subsequent treatment be carried out. Why not find time tomorrow night to have a parent-child activity?"

"I have something on tomorrow night; there is a banquet I must attend," Li Beijue said.

Gu Ruohan pondered: "Then the day after tomorrow! In any case, you two had better improve your relationship quickly!"

Li Beijue frowned and pondered for two seconds, then immediately nodded.

Inside the room—

Mobai also had the same frowning expression, sitting by the bed thinking about something.

What kind of illness did Yanbao actually have that required a psychologist to treat it?

He stared at the phone in front of him, hesitating as he deleted the message he had already composed.

After thinking for two seconds, he typed the words back in again.

【Yanbao, are you sick? Today, an uncle named Gu came to give you psychological treatment, but I already drove him away. Are you willing to tell me what's going on? And can you introduce the people at home to me too?】

Ask... or not ask?

Mobai's expression was somewhat hesitant.

He wavered for a long while before finally pressing the send button.

Not long after, he felt the phone vibrate.

Mobai hurriedly lit up the screen and sure enough, saw the reply sent by Yanbao.

【I'm sorry, I should have told you about this today...】

The short line of text carried deep guilt.

Mobai blinked, and just as he was about to reply, he felt the phone vibrate again.

【I don't know what illness I have either, I only know that every time I forget about being sick, and only the last time I remembered. At that time, I seemed to have completely turned into another person! And I would especially miss Mommy, and would make Daddy angry... Mobai, will you hate me because of this?】

Yanbao's last sentence carried a hint of nervousness.

Mobai's little brain spun rapidly; he stared at this message for a while, then suddenly widened his eyes.

He seemed to know what illness Yanbao had!

This should be called... dual personality!

In little Mobai's five-year-long life, this was the first time he had encountered such a major event, and for a moment, he didn't know how to comfort him.

People who are sick all need care; what should he say?

As he thought, he saw the phone screen light up again.

It was still a message from Yanbao.

【Mobai, it doesn't matter if you hate me, but can you help me and not tell Mommy about this? I don't want to be hated by Mommy...】

Mobai's little hand clutching the phone tightened, and without time to think, he began to type rapidly on the phone.

【What are you saying! I won't hate you! Mommy won't either!】

【You are sick because you miss Mommy too much! If you stay by Mommy's side for this period of time, you won't be sick anymore!】

He sent two messages in one breath, waited a few seconds, and finally received Yanbao's reply.

【Really? Mobai, thank you!】

The short words revealed Yanbao's current peace of mind.

Mobai also relaxed a bit, learned some information about Li Mansion from Yanbao, and then they said goodnight to each other.

The night outside was already pitch black, but he stared with wide eyes, not a hint of sleepiness.

Yanbao is so pitiful...

Growing up alone by the bad Daddy's side, and now he's even sick.

If staying by Mommy's side could keep him from being sick, then the only way was to get Daddy and Mommy to reconcile!

But he really doesn't like Daddy!

He is always fierce, and today he even almost spanked his bottom!

Little Mobai sighed helplessly and covered himself inside the quilt.

The next day—

Because of chatting with Mobai last night, Yanbao was happy all day long.

Jiang Baobao played with him all day, and it wasn't until evening that she had to go out to attend tonight's important banquet.

"Baby, you must stay obediently by the Security Guard's side, don't leave this villa, and call Mommy if anything happens, okay?"

She stood at the door, rubbing the little one's head with some concern.

Yanbao obediently held the Security Guard's hand and promised: "Mm-hmm, Mommy, go and come back soon!"

Jiang Baobao smiled with relief, gave a few more worried instructions, and then left the villa.

Her new car hadn't arrived yet, so she had to call a car and gave the address of the banquet.

An hour later, the car stopped in front of a magnificent private club.

Jiang Baobao lowered her head to tidy her clothes and walked toward the entrance of the club with a light gait.

She was wearing a black backless mermaid dress today.

Large patches of snow-white skin shone white under the lights, partially obscured by a strand of hair falling from her shoulder, carrying a hint of a subtle, alluring flavor.

That palm-sized little face was exquisitely made up, and a casual glance from her eyes seemed enough to hook a person's soul.

A small commotion rippled through the Main Hall.

Looking around, almost everyone here was a man.

For a woman to appear in the gaming circle was truly a bit too conspicuous.

Jiang Baobao met the scrutinizing gazes of the crowd unhurriedly, curled her lips casually, and swept her eyes across the venue.

Her Team was currently a hot favorite to win the championship, and she had to secure a major sponsorship tonight!

It was just... she wondered who the wealthiest big shot tonight might be?

Jiang Baobao ignored the whispers of the people around her, picked up a glass of champagne at random, and intended to find a quiet corner to stay by herself for a while.

But before she could leave, she saw a middle-aged man already walking toward her with a smile and long strides.

"This beautiful lady must be Ms. Lisa, right? The only woman among the owners of the various Teams; seeing you once is indeed better than hearing about you a hundred times."

Jiang Baobao paused slightly, then hurriedly nodded and smiled.

She had always avoided using her real name abroad, preferring to present herself with her English name.

She carefully recalled for two seconds before remembering that the person before her should be the chairman of the organizing committee responsible for domestic gaming competitions.

"Chairman Liu, hello." Jiang Baobao extended her hand in a friendly manner and shook hands with him; the two of them standing together instantly attracted even more attention.

"Ms. Lisa, thank you for being willing to lead your Team back to the country; we especially welcome you!"
