Chapter 352: Tiantian is his daughter

Jiang Baobao sat blankly on the bed for a long while, still unable to fully collect her thoughts.

The warm sensation seemed to still linger on her lips, leaving her mind blank for a moment, yet clearly reminding her that it was not a dream, but that someone had indeed left a warm trace behind.

Jiang Baobao stared blankly at a corner of empty space, subconsciously reaching out to touch the corner of her mouth.

But she pulled her hand back abruptly, as if she had been scalded.

She did not know how much time had passed when she suddenly heard her phone buzz, which finally brought her back to her senses.

Jiang Baobao immediately picked up her phone to take a look and discovered it was just an irrelevant news notification.

She stared blankly at the phone screen for a long while before coming to her senses again, tossing the phone aside casually, her mind filled only with what had just happened.

Li Beijue kissed her...

There was no need to doubt anything anymore.

If he didn't... didn't like her... then there was absolutely no need to do that!

But how could he...?

He clearly hated her so much before, and when they met again, he had wanted to tear her in two; how could he possibly like her now!

Jiang Baobao's thin brows furrowed tightly; instead of feeling happy, she felt a headache coming on.

Which wire in Li Beijue's brain had gone wrong?

How could he suddenly take a fancy to her...

Was it because of the children?

Or was it because of some other reason?

As Jiang Baobao thought about it, she suddenly couldn't help but shake her head with a bitter smile.

Heaven must really be playing a joke on her...

After having her heart broken by the man she had liked for so many years, and finally managing to let go of everything completely, now he was...

So it really wasn't her overthinking things.

Li Beijue's inexplicable care, his attitude toward the little ones, and Li Laoyezi's meddling—everything had traces to follow...

It was just that she had been avoiding it, unwilling to believe that he truly had different feelings for her.

But what was the use?

Everything was already too late now, wasn't it?

Her heart had died completely six years ago and could no longer stir up a single ripple.

Liking someone was too exhausting.

Being liked by someone was likewise not a simple matter.

Did she do something that inadvertently caused his misunderstanding?

Jiang Baobao sighed heavily, her heart becoming a complete mess.

In the study—

Unlike Jiang Baobao's worried expression, Li Beijue was sitting in his chair with a serious look, staring at an unopened report in his hands.

It had been delivered to the villa as an express shipment this afternoon, and he only now had the time to check it.

Li Beijue stared at the report in his hands for a long time before gently tearing open the seal and pulling out the papers inside.

His eyes quickly scanned past the various values at the front and locked directly onto the result column at the end.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he brought the report closer to his eyes, carefully verifying it.

The last column only had a single line of small text written on it—

【According to our center's appraisal, the DNA of the subject submitted for testing is highly consistent with Mr. Li himself; they are biological father and daughter.】

Li Beijue's fingers gripped the thin paper tightly, a dark glint and irrepressible joy flashing quickly across his eyes.

As expected!

That little girl was truly his biological daughter!

A look of obvious excitement was on Li Beijue's face, and the cute little image of Tiantian suddenly appeared in his mind, causing the corners of his lips to curl up uncontrollably.

No wonder he had felt that the little girl looked familiar from the very first time they met...

So, besides Mobai and Yanbao, he also had a precious daughter!

But...

Li Beijue paused slightly, suddenly thinking of something.

He gently set down the report, his brows furrowing slightly as if he were worried.

That little girl still seemed to have some resistance toward him, and she had said before that she wanted to observe him a bit more...

And was Jiang Baobao hiding her identity all this time because he had forcibly taken Mobai away from her back then?

Li Beijue pondered for two seconds, suddenly feeling a bit uneasy in his heart, and sighed with helplessness and self-reproach.

It seemed he would have to continue hiding this matter and find a way to earn the little girl's forgiveness first...

Li Beijue carefully locked the report into the bottom drawer, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

The next morning, Li Beijue got up early in a very good mood.

But just as he arrived downstairs, he saw Zheng Bo walking in from outside.

As soon as Zheng Bo saw Li Beijue, he greeted him directly: "Good morning, Young Master. What would you like for breakfast today? Miss Jiang has already gone out, so the kitchen is in charge of breakfast today."

Li Beijue's footsteps paused slightly, and he subconsciously glanced outside, just in time to see Jiang Baobao's car disappear from sight in a flash.

"What did she go to do? Why did she leave so early?"

Li Beijue asked, feeling subconsciously annoyed.

Immediately after, Zheng Bo replied, "Miss Jiang has been leaving this early lately, saying she has work to attend to, but these past two days she has been leaving earlier and earlier; it seems there really is some very important work..."

Li Beijue knew that Jiang Baobao had been pouring all her heart into the competition recently, so he could only nod helplessly and did not continue to ask more.

On the other side, Jiang Baobao was driving while taking advantage of waiting for a red light to rub her stomach, which was feeling somewhat uncomfortable from hunger, her expression a bit helpless.

If she had known, she would have brought something to eat when she left just now!

If it weren't for that guy Li Beijue, she could have eaten breakfast at home!

It's all his fault!

Jiang Baobao complained speechlessly in her heart; the moment she thought about Li Beijue carrying her back to her room last night, she felt a bit of a headache.

What should she do?

It seems that for now, she has no way to appear in front of Li Beijue as if nothing had happened...

Although he doesn't know she was pretending to be asleep yesterday, she has no way to act as if nothing happened!

Tsk, this feeling of having done something guilty is really unpleasant!

Jiang Baobao couldn't help but frown, staring blankly at the traffic light ahead.

It wasn't until she heard the honking of the cars behind her that she suddenly snapped back to her senses and hurriedly restarted the car.

She sped all the way to the Base, and as soon as she entered the door, she quickly heated a glass of milk for herself, then sat down at the dining table with the cup, lost in thought.

Her thoughts, which had been drifting the whole way, finally slowly returned to her brain.

Yet, all that remained in her mind were a few words that had been echoing incessantly since last night.

Li Beijue... secretly kissed her...

Li Beijue likes her!

How could he like her?

How could it be possible for him to like her?

This is too unscientific!!!
