Chapter 312: Sharing a Little Good Luck with You

Zheng Bo reminded him cautiously, observing Li Beijue's expression without revealing his own.

Upon hearing this, Li Beijue's expression stiffened, but he immediately pretended to be nonchalant and nodded faintly, saying, "Mm."

He responded in a low voice, then turned and entered the villa.

Just as he stepped through the door, he heard Mobai and Yanbao chattering about something in the living room.

"Mommy! There are quite a few new teams participating in the competition this time!"

Mobai was leaning close to Jiang Baobao, staring intently at the laptop in her hands.

Jiang Baobao frowned upon hearing this and nodded gently.

"There are two brand-new teams this time, and their strength is said to be quite good..."

"Then does Mommy's Team have to play against them?" Yanbao didn't quite understand the details of the competition and asked curiously.

Jiang Baobao hurriedly explained with a smile: "That's right, but I don't know exactly who we'll play yet. We have to wait for the draw in two days. You get one point for every match you win, and the top eight teams in the standings will advance."

She explained it clearly and simply, and Yanbao nodded in sudden realization as he listened.

Then, Mobai was heard saying loudly: "I'll share my luck with Mommy! Mommy will definitely draw a good lot! It'll be easy to advance!"

"Then I'll share my luck with Mommy too!" Yanbao hurriedly followed suit, and as he spoke, he grabbed Jiang Baobao's hand.

Jiang Baobao couldn't help but be amused by the two little ones in front of her. She shook her head with a smile and deliberately asked in return: "Do you two have so little confidence in Mommy? Or are you saying you don't have confidence in Brother Ke Hao and the others?"

"Of course not! Anyway, no matter what kind of opponents they draw, the brothers will definitely win!"

Mobai answered loudly at once, then suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said: "But if Mommy doesn't draw any particularly formidable opponents, the brothers can have it a bit easier!"

Mobai had practically grown up watching gaming competitions and was very clear about the rules and ins and outs of it all.

"Ahem..."

Li Beijue had been listening at the door for a long time, and seeing that no one had noticed him, he finally couldn't help but cough lightly.

The two little ones finally noticed the person at the door and hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Daddy, you're back!"

"Mm, what are you talking about?" Li Beijue responded, pretending he hadn't heard anything just now.

Mobai immediately cooperated and explained loudly: "Mommy's Team is going to play in the Preliminary Tournament! The opponents are decided by a draw. Does Daddy want to share some good luck with Mommy?"

"Sure, how do I share it?" Li Beijue nodded without a second thought, a flash of amusement crossing his eyes as he looked at the two little ones holding Jiang Baobao's hand.

If "luck" was shared this way, he would be very happy to share a bit more with her...

Li Beijue thought, waiting for the two little ones to take the initiative.

Jiang Baobao was also stunned for a moment. Sensing the gaze Li Beijue was casting her way, she suddenly realized something, hurriedly pulled her hand back, hugged her computer, and stood up!

"I suddenly remembered I have a video conference to attend. I'll let Daddy play with you two first."

As she spoke, Jiang Baobao rubbed the little heads of the two children, immediately hugged her computer, turned, and went up the stairs.

In the living room, the two little ones watched Jiang Baobao's back disappear up the stairs and simultaneously looked at Li Beijue!

"Daddy! Did you make Mommy angry again?"

Mobai questioned him loudly, looking at Li Beijue with a suspicious expression.

Li Beijue hurriedly denied it: "No, Daddy didn't do anything this time."

"Then why is Mommy hiding from Daddy?" Yanbao also asked, looking somewhat puzzled.

Li Beijue's gaze flickered for an instant, and he became even more certain of his previous thought.

Even these two little ones could tell; Jiang Baobao was indeed hiding from him!

However...

A trace of confusion crossed Li Beijue's brow; his usually clear mind was having a rare moment of being unable to sort things out.

"Daddy, do you want us to help you go ask Mommy?" Yanbao suddenly asked very considerately.

Li Beijue pondered for two seconds, then slowly shook his head.

"No need, Daddy will handle this matter himself. If necessary, Daddy will take the initiative to ask for your help."

After Li Beijue finished speaking, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck him, and he immediately had an idea in his mind.

"Daddy is going to make a phone call."

Li Beijue left behind a hurried sentence, walked further away with his phone without hesitation, and then dialed Assistant Chen's number.

"Hello? President Li." Assistant Chen, whose phone was on twenty-four hours a day, answered immediately.

Li Beijue quickly glanced at the two little ones in the distance before speaking in a low voice: "Use the fastest speed to buy a piece of jewelry like a necklace or bracelet, and have it delivered tomorrow morning. It would be best... if it has some kind of effect like bringing good luck..."

Li Beijue said the last few words with some difficulty, his tone carrying a hint of uncertainty.

"Huh?" Assistant Chen's mind went blank for a moment; it was rare for him not to immediately agree to Li Beijue's order.

"Is there a problem?" Li Beijue's voice immediately deepened a few degrees.

"No, I guarantee the mission will be completed." Assistant Chen agreed without a second thought.

"Very good, have the item delivered tomorrow morning, and your bonus for this month will be doubled."

Li Beijue's mood suddenly became quite good, and after saying this, he hung up the phone directly.

Yet, he couldn't help but casually open a webpage, pondered for two seconds, and simply checked a few high-end jewelry brands.

It seems to be very popular in recent years to attach various labels to jewelry, such as wishing or changing one's luck. He remembered seeing many of them when he attended a jewelry exhibition before...

Women should all like this kind of thing, right?

She wears the jewelry he gave her to draw lots for the competition...

Li Beijue thought, unable to help but raise his eyebrows in satisfaction, already imagining the surprised look on Jiang Baobao's face when she received the jewelry.

On the other side...

Cai Xiaotang was rushing toward the hotel where she would be staying tonight.

Seeing that she had already arrived in the vicinity, she happened to run into road construction.

"Damn! Does it have to be this unlucky?"

Cai Xiaotang slammed on the brakes, pulled the car over to the side, and quickly checked other routes.

The next second, she heard a series of screeching brake sounds ringing out behind her.

The other party had evidently also seen the road construction barriers ahead, and after a brief pause, they all turned their vehicles around in unison.

Cai Xiaotang was annoyed by the sound of the cars and couldn't help but roll her eyes through the rearview mirror.

Seeing the few cars that had already driven a distance away, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned, then realized and quickly scanned their license plate numbers.

Are those cars also from A City?

Why do they look somewhat familiar?

It feels like I've seen them somewhere before...
