Chapter 387: Fireworks That Belong Only to You
Jiang Baobao followed Li Beijue in silence until they reached a bedroom.
Li Beijue casually pulled open the wardrobe and introduced, "I haven't really worn the clothes in here..."
As he spoke, he pulled out a shirt and a pair of shorts at random: "You should be able to wear these; go ahead and change out of your wet clothes."
Jiang Baobao nodded, turned around, and quickly took the clothes to the bathroom without a word.
Not long after, she walked out having changed her clothes.
Li Beijue's clothes were a bit large in size; even though Jiang Baobao had buttoned the shirt to the very top, a small patch of her snow-white neck was still exposed.
The length of the shirt was also somewhat like a short skirt, leaving her two straight, long legs exposed. Although she was wearing the shorts, at a glance, it looked as if she were only wearing this shirt, which barely covered her thighs.
"What are you looking at!"
Sensing that a certain someone's gaze had been fixed on her for a long time, Jiang Baobao asked irritably.
Li Beijue instantly snapped back to reality, hurriedly adjusted his expression, and pretended as if nothing had happened: "Give your clothes to me; I'll take them downstairs to dry."
"No need, I can go myself." Jiang Baobao refused decisively, and as she spoke, she turned and walked toward the door.
Her long hair, which had come loose while she was cleaning up earlier, inadvertently brushed across Li Beijue's chest and suddenly came to a sharp halt!
"Hiss—"
The sudden dull pain made Jiang Baobao gasp.
Li Beijue was also taken by surprise and hurriedly stopped her: "Don't move, your hair is caught."
As he spoke, he hurriedly lowered his head to check the small lock of long hair caught on the lapel of his shirt, though a hint of a smile couldn't help but flash in his eyes.
He then explained with amusement: "Your hair is tangled in my button; I'm afraid it will take some time to untangle."
Jiang Baobao felt incredibly awkward and didn't know what to say for a moment, so she had to wait quietly.
Immediately after, she felt her hair being tugged gently.
"Tsk..."
She couldn't help but let out a small cry of pain.
Hearing this, Li Beijue immediately pulled his hand back: "What's wrong? Did I hurt you? You might have to endure it for a moment..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Baobao's ears suddenly burned.
Why did that sound so... strange?
As Jiang Baobao thought this, she suddenly snapped back to her senses, her face unable to hide a look of annoyance.
Was she being stupid?
What kind of strange things was she thinking about!
Jiang Baobao's eyes flickered for a moment as she hurriedly adjusted her mood.
Then she heard Li Beijue ask: "Is it a bit tiring for you to be hunched over like that? Why don't you go over there and sit down..."
"Okay."
Jiang Baobao's mind was in a mess, and she agreed subconsciously, taking careful steps as she slowly moved in the direction Li Beijue was leading.
Unexpectedly, the next second, she heard the voices of the three little ones coming from the hallway!
"They're coming!" Jiang Baobao didn't know what she was nervous about, but her foot suddenly slipped!
"Ah!"
Losing her footing, she fell to the side!
Fearing she would pull on her own hair, Li Beijue hurriedly and subconsciously shielded her, falling down with her!
With a "thud," the two of them fell to the floor together.
At the same time, the bedroom door was pushed open with a bang!
"Daddy!"
"Mommy!"
The voices of the three little ones rang out simultaneously.
Then, they all fell silent at once, staring blankly at the two people in the room.
Jiang Baobao's ears were buzzing, and she only felt her scalp tingling with pain; the lock of hair that had been tangled earlier had already been snapped off in the instant of the fall.
"Are you okay?" Li Beijue looked at the person in his arms with both heartache and helplessness.
"I'm fine..." Jiang Baobao slowly sat up, feeling a bit helpless as she saw the blank expressions on the three little ones.
Just as she was about to say something, she heard Mobai say loudly: "Mommy! We're going to go play now! We won't disturb you and Daddy!"
As Mobai spoke, he quickly pulled Yanbao and Tian away, as if afraid of disturbing something.
"Mobai!"
Jiang Baobao subconsciously wanted to call the little one back, but they had already run far away.
Jiang Baobao:...
What was she nervous about just now?
Why did she subconsciously want to explain to Mobai?
Jiang Baobao's temples throbbed, and for a moment, she felt she had nowhere to vent her frustration.
"Ahem... do you want to pull your clothes up first?"
Li Beijue's reminder sounded in her ear.
Jiang Baobao snapped back to reality, only to discover that her clothes had slipped down from the front at some point!
"You!"
She finally couldn't help but explode; even knowing he didn't have bad intentions, she still couldn't help but say indignantly: "Why did you find such big clothes for me! Who knows if you did it on purpose!"
"Of course not." Li Beijue immediately denied it, looking at Jiang Baobao with doting eyes: "I wouldn't do something so tasteless; why would I want to make you angry? After all, I haven't won you back yet..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Baobao was suddenly choked for words; what she had said just now was meant in anger, and now she had even less of an idea how to respond.
"I'm going to find Yanbao and the others; do as you please."
Jiang Baobao stood up with a stiff face, clutching her soaked clothes as she left quickly.
Only when she could no longer feel Li Beijue's gaze did she suddenly let out a sigh of relief.
Is this guy planning to keep "pursuing her" on his lips from now on?
It's just too... straightforward, isn't it?
Jiang Baobao's hand subconsciously touched her chest, and she suddenly felt her heartbeat speed up a little.
It was a rare outing to relax, and the little ones were all playing quite wildly.
They played from daytime until night, not even taking a nap, yet they didn't feel tired at all.
In the evening, Jiang Baobao, Li Beijue, and the three little ones had a barbecue in the back garden.
With their little bellies round from eating, the little ones all ran off to the lounge chairs on the side to look at the stars.
Jiang Baobao also sat to one side, holding a glass of juice.
Immediately after, she saw Li Beijue walk over and sit down beside her.
"Daddy! Today was so much fun!"
It was rare for Yanbao to be in such high spirits; he said to Li Beijue with a bright, beaming smile on his little face.
Upon hearing this, Li Beijue raised an eyebrow, suddenly took out his phone to check the time, and then said, "There's something even more fun in a little while."
"What is it? Did Daddy prepare a surprise for us!" Hearing this, Mobai immediately became interested as well.
Li Beijue, however, deliberately kept them in suspense, saying, "You'll know in a moment."
The three little ones had no choice but to stop asking and wait obediently.
Even Jiang Baobao couldn't help but feel a bit curious.
Ten minutes later—
"Whoosh!"
A streak of silver light suddenly cut through the night sky, exploding into a brilliant orange flower in the sky.
"Wow! It's fireworks!"
Little Mobai jumped up in an instant.
Jiang Baobao also subconsciously widened her eyes, her expression one of surprise.
The next instant, the man's low voice sounded in her ear.
"I had someone prepare these fireworks specifically; I wonder if you'll like them?"
