Chapter 298: Jiang Baobao, let's make up

~7 min read 1,320 words

The atmosphere turned eerily quiet for a moment.

After Jiang Baobao finished speaking, she suddenly felt a bit awkward herself.

Going out to celebrate the Qixi Festival Festival Festival with her ex-husband and the children... no matter how she thought about it, it sounded like there was something wrong with her head, right?

She couldn't help but roast herself in her heart. Just as she was thinking this, she heard Cai Xiaotang ask in disbelief: "Did I hear that right? You're sure you're going out with that dog of a man? You'd be better off going out with me than with him!"

Jiang Baobao came back to her senses and explained helplessly: "I don't want to either! But Mobai and the others said they wanted to go play, so Li Beijue and I had no choice but to take them together..."

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang immediately rolled her eyes at the ceiling in annoyance.

After pondering for a few seconds, she suddenly asked in a subtle tone: "There's something... I've wanted to ask for a long time... Could it be that those three little ones are trying to find a way to get you and that dog of a man, Li Beijue, to reconcile?"

Cai Xiaotang's tone carried a hint of suspicion, and the remark struck right at Jiang Baobao's secret thoughts.

Jiang Baobao opened her mouth, but for a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

Just then, she heard the three little ones shouting and urging from downstairs: "Mommy, are you ready yet?"

Jiang Baobao snapped back to reality and hurriedly said into the phone: "They're urging me, let's talk again when we have time! I'll treat you to a meal next time we go out, I have to go!"

As she spoke, Jiang Baobao hurriedly hung up the phone, grabbed her bag, and ran down the stairs.

At the doorway, Li Beijue and the three little ones were already dressed and ready to go.

"Mommy, can we leave now?"

As soon as Mobai saw Jiang Baobao, he immediately asked loudly.

Jiang Baobao nodded and hurriedly replied: "Yes, I know you're all impatient, let's go right now!"

As she spoke, she smiled and ruffled the little one's hair, but out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly felt that Li Beijue seemed to be looking at her.

Jiang Baobao subconsciously looked up and happened to meet his gaze.

It seemed to carry a hint of meaning that was hard to decipher.

Jiang Baobao blinked and asked in confusion: "You... is something the matter?"

"Nothing, let's go." Li Beijue shook his head, opened the door, and walked straight toward the car that was already prepared. A hint of a smile flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Qixi Festival Festival Festival...

So this kind of holiday really has its own significance.

In the past, he probably would have thought it was a waste of time...

Thinking this, Li Beijue couldn't help but shake his head with a chuckle.

The five of them got into the car, and after confirming the destination, Li Beijue started the engine.

Not long after, they pulled up in front of the commercial street that had just opened that evening.

To welcome the holiday, the entire commercial street had adopted an ancient-style decorative theme.

Just as Jiang Baobao was about to get out of the car, she heard Tiantian beside her say in surprise: "Mommy, the dresses those big sisters outside are wearing are so pretty! I want a long dress like that too! They look just like fairies!"

As the little girl spoke, a look of envy appeared on her small face.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Baobao subconsciously looked in the direction she was pointing, and only then did she see a group of young girls wearing Hanfu, which blended perfectly with the style of the street, giving it a unique charm.

"Does Tiantian like this kind of dress? Then Mommy will buy you one in a couple of days."

Jiang Baobao promised with a smile and turned to get out of the car.

Immediately after, she saw the three little ones jumping out of the car impatiently.

"It looks like there are lots of fun things here!"

Mobai's big eyes scanned the area quickly, and he said excitedly.

Yanbao also nodded in agreement, a faint look of anticipation appearing on his small face.

Tiantian, meanwhile, wrinkled her little nose and sniffed, then quickly pointed into the distance and said: "The yummy food is over there! Mommy, should we go get something to eat first!"

"Alright, none of you ate dinner, so why don't we go fill your bellies first!"

Jiang Baobao agreed with a smile and looked at Mobai and Yanbao, intending to ask for their opinions.

The two little ones naturally had no objections, so the group of five turned and walked toward the snack street.

As soon as they reached the entrance, they were hit by the wafting aroma.

"Wow! It smells so good!"

Tiantian's eyes widened instantly as she carefully searched for food that interested her.

Jiang Baobao hadn't felt hungry at first, but smelling the scents here, her own appetite was instantly piqued, and she couldn't help but look at the various stalls, wondering what to eat.

"Mommy, Yanbao and I want to eat candied haws!"

Mobai was the first to find food he was interested in and tugged gently on Jiang Baobao's sleeve.

Yanbao also added from the side: "Mommy, we also want a serving of small soup dumplings!"

"Of course! Let's go! We'll go buy them one by one!"

Without another word, Jiang Baobao immediately led the three little ones toward the candied haws, quickly picking out a few large, sweet skewers.

Just as Jiang Baobao was about to pay, the next second, she saw a slender hand already holding a phone, quickly scanning the QR code in front of the cart.

Jiang Baobao was slightly stunned, only then realizing that someone had been quietly following behind her since they got out of the car, without saying much.

"Li Beijue, you... aren't really used to places like this, are you?"

Seeing Li Beijue frowning slightly, Jiang Baobao couldn't help but ask.

Li Beijue hadn't expected her to take the initiative to speak to him; he was stunned for a moment before shaking his head gently.

"It's not that I'm not used to it, it's that I've never been here before."

As he spoke, his eyes scanned the surroundings.

Then they heard Mobai say loudly: "Then Daddy must have a good time today! After all, it's not our holiday, it's Daddy and Mommy's holiday!"

The little one's voice was quite loud, and as soon as he finished speaking, it immediately attracted the attention of many people around them.

Seeing Li Beijue and Jiang Baobao with the three cute little ones, everyone couldn't help but show looks of envy.

"Look at those three children, they're so cute!"

"Yeah! Their mom and dad are so good-looking too! And those two boys are twins!"

Young girls nearby couldn't help but whisper and discuss them.

Jiang Baobao took in every word they said, and for a moment, she couldn't help but feel a bit subtle.

The next second, she saw a flower vendor walking by from not far away, carrying a large bouquet of flowers.

Jiang Baobao suddenly thought of the bouquet from yesterday and couldn't help but take a few extra looks.

Immediately after, she heard Yanbao suddenly speak up: "Daddy, since today is Valentine's Day, shouldn't you give Mommy a bouquet of flowers..."

"No need!"

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao's heart skipped a beat; she interrupted the little one instantly without thinking, her expression showing some helplessness.

Don't buy any more flowers!

In these past two days, she had practically received all the flowers she would ever get in her life!
