Chapter 236: Daddy and Mommy are Loving and Affectionate

Inside the villa—

Zheng Bo watched Jiang Baobao's car drive away, his expression somewhat puzzled.

"Young Master, does Miss Jiang have some urgent matter today? Why did she leave in such a rush without even eating breakfast?"

"Hmm, perhaps." Li Beijue was in a good mood; he responded with a smile in his tone, a hint of intense amusement flashing in the depths of his eyes.

Her ears seemed to still be red just a moment ago... so... she should have realized something, right?

He had already made it so obvious; unless Jiang Baobao was a block of wood, how could she not have felt that his attitude toward her was different?

Just as Li Beijue was thinking this, he suddenly heard a series of running footsteps coming from the stairs.

Mobai and Yanbao ran down the stairs one after the other, while Tiantian followed behind unhurriedly.

As soon as the three little ones reached the bottom floor, their big eyes darted around rapidly, as if they were looking for something.

"Huh? Daddy, is Mommy not up yet? Is she feeling unwell today because she drank alcohol yesterday?" Yanbao asked with great concern.

Li Beijue shook his head: "Mommy has some very important work to attend to today, so she has already left. Daddy will take you all later."

"Ah... she's already left..." Mobai immediately pouted his little mouth with some regret.

Then, suddenly thinking of something, he hurriedly asked: "Then did Daddy take good care of Mommy yesterday?"

"Of course." Li Beijue nodded. After speaking, he paused for two seconds, then deliberately added: "Mommy slept very well last night."

"Oh..." Hearing this, Mobai immediately drew out his voice in response, then turned his head and winked at Yanbao.

The two little ones exchanged a quick look without a sound.

Daddy said Mommy slept very well last night...

Yanbao smiled at Mobai and couldn't help but tentatively ask: "Then... did Daddy and Mommy sleep together last night?"

"Mm." Li Beijue answered in a low voice again.

At this, the little expressions on Mobai and Yanbao's faces couldn't help but turn somewhat pleasantly surprised.

Daddy and Mommy really did sleep together!

The two of them are about to make up!

Both little ones had the same joy in their eyes, but Tiantian, standing to the side, was stunned for a moment, unable to figure it out for a while.

Didn't Mommy say before that she didn't want Daddy anymore... and even made her call Daddy 'Uncle'...

How come they are suddenly going to make up?

She really can't understand these adults!

When Mommy comes back, she must ask her about it!

Inside the car—

Jiang Baobao finally calmed down, and the heat on her cheeks had faded quite a bit.

She drove all the way to the entrance of the Base. Just as she parked the car, she suddenly remembered another matter.

Right, the medicine that Little Uncle takes—she still hasn't asked Grandma about it...

Drinking alcohol really ruins things!

Jiang Baobao couldn't help but feel a bit vexed. While thinking, she quickly took out her phone and hurriedly dialed the number for Old Madam Jiang.

"Beep—"

The phone only rang twice before it was picked up.

Old Madam Jiang's voice also sounded from the other end of the line.

"Hello? Is that Baobao? Are there results from your Little Uncle's check-up?"

Old Madam Jiang got straight to the point as soon as she answered.

Jiang Baobao's gaze flickered for an instant. Thinking of what Liu Xin'ai had said to her yesterday, she didn't know how to bring it up for a moment.

"Grandma..."

She called out softly, but the rest of her words became stuck on the tip of her tongue.

"Mm, go ahead." Old Madam Jiang replied hurriedly.

On the other end of the line, Jiang Baobao had lost her voice.

She gripped her phone tightly; no matter what, she didn't want to tell the old lady the truth about why Jiang Chenghao had become the way he was now.

That was too cruel.

"Baobao, what exactly is wrong? Don't scare Grandma. If there is some situation, just tell me directly..."

Old Madam Jiang seemed to have sensed something; her tone was somewhat trembling, yet she still maintained her composure.

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath, then said: "Grandma... Little Uncle, he might truly not have become like this because of the car accident..."

"Not the car accident?" Old Madam Jiang was dazed for an instant, then hurriedly pressed: "Then what is it because of? What did Xin'ai find out? Tell Grandma quickly!"

"Grandma, you... please don't get agitated." Jiang Baobao softly soothed the old lady's emotions, then slowly repeated what Liu Xin'ai had said yesterday in a simple way.

"You mean... Cheng Hao is like this because of medicine... because of..." Old Madam Jiang's voice took on a sobbing tone, trembling so much she couldn't finish her sentence.

Jiang Baobao immediately felt her heart ache terribly and hurriedly comforted her: "Grandma, at the moment we only have this speculation and cannot confirm it yet. I called you today just to ask, what medicine does Little Uncle usually take?"

"He usually only takes one kind of medicine, the one prescribed by the doctor at that therapy center you ran into last time! They said it could keep his emotions stable for a period of time, but there is no way to cure it completely..." Old Madam Jiang answered hurriedly.

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao's expression suddenly turned stern.

That therapy center again?

Then there must be a problem!

Jiang Baobao took a deep breath to steady her mood, then continued: "Grandma, no matter what that medicine is, Little Uncle cannot continue taking it. Also... I will find time to go to the Jiang Family in the next two days. You quietly take out a few pills of that medicine, and I will take them to be tested to see what the ingredients are. Xinaijie said that if it is the medicine causing Little Uncle to be like this, there might be a chance for him to recover!"

"Really!" Old Madam Jiang's tone suddenly became excited.

But after being happy for only a few seconds, she hesitated and said: "But..."

"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?" Jiang Baobao asked hurriedly.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds.

After a long while, Old Madam Jiang replied hesitantly: "Cheng Hao's medicine ran out these past two days. The Doctor said we have to wait a while before we can get more, and even when we do get the medicine, it isn't kept with me; it's always kept by people from the Lu Family. They say it's because they're afraid that since I'm old, I might get the dosage wrong... Besides, Cheng Hao only takes it every few days, and every time he takes the medicine, there is someone watching by his side..."

"Only takes it every few days..." Jiang Baobao murmured this sentence softly, her expression inevitably showing some hesitation as well.

If it were conventional therapeutic medication, how could the interval be so long?

And it is even kept by people from the Lu Family, who personally watch as Uncle takes it!

But if it were a poison used to control the nerves, then that might not be the case...

A dark glint flashed in the depths of Jiang Baobao's eyes; she gripped the steering wheel in her hands tightly, and a chill erupted from her entire body.

In order to control Uncle and obtain the Jiang Family's assets, the Lu Family actually dared to go to such lengths!

Are they not afraid of divine retribution!

She calmed herself for a moment before speaking again: "Grandma, no matter what, that kind of medicine must not be taken again. As soon as the new medicine arrives, contact me immediately. When the time comes, we will find a way to get the medicine and send it for testing. Rest assured, I will definitely find a way to cure Uncle and restore him to how he used to be!"
