Chapter 32: Discovering the Secret of the Two Cute Babies

Inside the CEO's office—

Assistant Chen was standing before Li Beijue with a nervous expression, reporting the work information that he had been required to repeat every quarter since he began working by Li Beijue's side all these years.

"President Li, sixteen years ago, after that incident, the school's archives caught fire unexpectedly, and all the files were burned to ashes. We really cannot find any useful information..." Assistant Chen said, feeling extremely nervous.

Reporting this matter every quarter was the time when Li Beijue was in his worst mood, and it was also the moment he feared the most.

Yet, upon hearing this, Li Beijue was stunned for a moment.

Ever since he returned from his studies abroad, he had been searching for the girl who saved him back then, but unfortunately, so many years had passed, and there had been no clues at all.

As Li Beijue thought about this, he suddenly remembered something, and could not help but open the drawer next to his desk and take out a small box placed on the very top.

As soon as Assistant Chen saw this small box, he immediately said nervously: "Regarding this necklace, I have also had countless people look at it. It is not a style on the market, nor does it have any very obvious characteristics. Relying solely on the mark on the back, it is truly impossible to find any clues..."

After listening, Li Beijue's expression immediately turned gloomy, and he ordered with a cold face: "Then keep looking! Report to me immediately if there are any clues!"

He refused to believe that he would never find her in this lifetime!

"Yes, President Li!"

Assistant Chen immediately took the order, and seeing that Li Beijue had no other instructions, he did not dare to stay any longer and fled as if escaping.

The office returned to silence.

Li Beijue stared at the small box in front of him, stroking it incessantly.

He could not help but open it, take out the necklace inside, and gently rub his finger against the back of the flower at the very center of the necklace.

Two tiny scratches were carved there, forming a letter—X.

"So many years have passed... where exactly are you..."

Li Beijue murmured softly, lost in deep thought.

Sixteen years ago.

He was just a child in his teens.

Yet, he was kidnapped while following his school on a spring outing.

He was not afraid, knowing his family would definitely find a way to save him.

But he never expected that the person who came was a girl wearing a school uniform who attended the same school as him.

That girl looked silly, and he did not know where she got the courage, but she actually dared to come and save someone all by herself.

In the end, not only did she fail to save him, but she was also captured by the kidnappers along with him.

Yet even so, she still kept encouraging him on the side not to be afraid...

Thinking of the past events, a trace of a smile could not help but appear on Li Beijue's face.

Then, he suddenly came back to his senses, stared at the necklace in his hand, and sighed.

After being rescued that time, he was taken away directly by his grandfather!

Fearing he would encounter danger again, his grandfather arranged for people that very day to send him abroad by helicopter!

He wanted to find her, so he went to the school but did not see her; he also went to the house where they were kidnapped together, but only found this necklace!

It was as if she had vanished into thin air!

He had no choice at the time and could only go abroad with regret!

After returning, he kept sending people to search, but there was still no news!

Li Beijue was lost in thought when he suddenly heard his cell phone ring.

Seeing it was a call from Li Mansion, he answered it immediately.

Immediately after, he heard Zheng Bo on the other end of the phone say loudly: "Young Master, it's bad! The young master is not eating his meals properly again! And... and he has eaten a lot of the junk food you previously forbade him from having!"

"What?" Li Beijue's hand gripping the phone tightened.

What is that little guy trying to do again?

His brows were tightly locked, and he could not help but reprimand: "Zheng Bo, you just let him do as he pleases because he is ignorant? Do I need to tell you how harmful those foods are?"

Zheng Bo also looked aggrieved: "Young Master, I have tried every method, but the young master said that if I don't prepare those for him, he won't eat. I originally thought he was just curious and wanted to try something new, but he just said he wants to eat them every day. What do you think..."

Li Beijue's eyes darkened.

Eat them every day?

He saw that the little guy was not being gluttonous; he was clearly trying to challenge his bottom line and force him to agree to invest in Jiang Baobao!

A dark light flashed in the depths of Li Beijue's eyes, and the anger that had not dissipated from last night came surging back instantly.

"Then let him be; let him eat whatever he wants!"

He dropped that one sentence and hung up directly.

He carefully put the necklace back into the box, returned it to the drawer, and looked at the work in front of him, but he no longer had the mood to continue processing it.

Yanbao had been physically weak since he was a child; eating too much of those things would affect his health...

But...

Li Beijue suddenly slammed the table hard.

He actually went as far as to threaten him with his own body for the sake of that woman, Jiang Baobao!

Li Beijue was silent for a long while, then stood up with a gloomy face, grabbed his coat, and strode out of the office.

Inside Li Mansion—

After Mobai finished off all the snacks, he really felt his belly was bulging and uncomfortably full.

He felt very uncomfortable but could not say anything, so he had to sneak out of the room, his big eyes watching the corridor outside the door vigilantly.

The servants should all be resting by now, right?

If he went to the courtyard to run around, he should feel a bit better...

Mobai snuck down from upstairs and tiptoed to the backyard.

In the living room, Li Beijue also pushed the door open and walked in, heading straight for the stairs.

His face was gloomy, his expression more serious than ever before, as he arrived outside Yanbao's door.

Li Beijue did not rush to go in, standing outside the door in deep thought for a long while.

This time, it cannot be like last night.

Let Yanbao eat a proper meal first, then talk.

That junk food must never be touched again!

While at it, ask him if he has any other wishes...

Li Beijue felt some heartache for the little guy after all; despite being furious on the way here, at this moment he only wanted to ease the relationship between the two.

He decided what he would say in a moment, then reached out and pushed the door open.

The room, however, was completely empty.

A flash of confusion crossed Li Beijue's face, and just as he intended to go look elsewhere, he heard the watch phone on the table beeping incessantly.

Who would be looking for Yanbao at this time?

His eyes flickered for a moment, and after hesitating for two seconds, he walked over.

The small watch phone was still ringing non-stop.

Li Beijue reached out and picked it up, and after just one glance, his expression was somewhat puzzled.

He saw a line of small text displayed on it.

【Then what should we do? Is there any other way?】

Li Beijue stared at it for two seconds, unable to help but scroll up.

Immediately, his hand tightened abruptly, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged!

This kind of watch phone can only scroll up three or four messages when locked.

It was just enough for Li Beijue to take in the entire conversation the two had just had.

And he successfully misunderstood it.

Li Beijue stared fixedly at the last message sent by Mobai, a cold smile appearing on his face.

Mommy is still the best?

He has taken care of Yanbao for so many years, yet he cannot compare to that irresponsible woman's few sweet words over a mere two days?

He knew it was that shameless woman Jiang Baobao, teaching Yanbao to go against him!

Li Beijue flung the watch phone onto the table, turned around, and strode back to the study to find Jiang Baobao's number.

The phone only rang twice before it was answered.

"Hello? Who is this?" Jiang Baobao asked.

"What do you think?" Li Beijue's tone was so cold it seemed to freeze the air, his face gloomy.

Then, without giving Jiang Baobao any chance to speak, he continued: "Jiang Baobao, I really didn't expect you could be this shameless!"

"Li Beijue, are you done yet?" Jiang Baobao flared up instantly.

Is this guy sick?

He even had to make a special call to humiliate her?

Thinking this, Jiang Baobao immediately wanted to hang up and block him directly.

Li Beijue's voice, however, became even colder: "Who told you to be incorrigible! To actually set your sights on the child!"

Jiang Baobao was even more confused and asked loudly in return: "What sights have I set?"

"You know clearly in your heart what sights!" Li Beijue gritted his teeth, wishing he could drag the person on the other end of the phone out.

Still trying to play innocent at a time like this?

Does this woman have no bottom line at all?
