Chapter 400: Outsmarted by Li Beijue

Just as Jiang Baobao was thinking this, she heard Yanbao enthusiastically call out, "Then Daddy, come and eat with us! All these dishes were made by Mommy!"

Upon hearing this, Li Beijue immediately looked in Jiang Baobao's direction, his gaze seemingly asking for her opinion.

Jiang Baobao was momentarily speechless.

This was the Li Family Old Residence; could she really kick him out?

Jiang Baobao swept a faint glance at him and then looked away, expressionless.

Li Beijue couldn't help but let the corners of his lips curl up slightly, then he walked toward the dining table and sat down beside Jiang Baobao.

He took one look and said in surprise, "These dishes... they seem to be the ones Grandma used to make often..."

"Yes, these are all your grandmother's signature dishes. Jiang girl used to always come back and make them for me. I've missed them so much these past few years!"

As Li Laoyezi said this, he couldn't help but be the first to pick up his chopsticks.

Li Beijue's expression, however, was somewhat complex.

Before... did Grandfather mean six years ago?

So she had actually gone out of her way to learn Grandma's signature dishes to make for Grandfather...

He seemed to remember Grandfather mentioning it back then, but at the time, he had felt it was just one of her ways to curry favor with Grandfather...

Li Beijue ate the meal with mixed feelings.

After it ended, just as he wanted to offer to drive everyone back, Jiang Baobao took the two little ones directly into her own car, not leaving him a single chance.

Returning to the entrance of the Base, just as they got out of the car, they suddenly discovered several large trucks parked at the entrance across the street, seemingly in the middle of moving.

"Boss! You're back!"

Xiao Ding happened to be passing by the entrance and, seeing Jiang Baobao standing outside, walked straight over.

Jiang Baobao nodded and asked, puzzled, "Are the people across the street back?"

Xiao Ding answered nonchalantly, "I don't know, but they've been making a racket all morning. I was woken up by them, so someone must be moving in..."

"Oh..." Jiang Baobao nodded, didn't think much of it, and turned to enter the villa.

The next day—

Jiang Baobao planned to lead the Team in training as usual.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she opened her eyes, she would hear her phone ringing.

Jiang Baobao glanced at it casually and, seeing it was a call from Li Beijue, felt a moment of helplessness.

She subconsciously wanted to hang up, but then remembered she had promised him earlier that she would let him come to visit the three children, so she had no choice but to answer the phone.

"What is it?"

Jiang Baobao deliberately made her tone sound cold.

Immediately, she heard Li Beijue on the other end of the line ask, "There is a matter... that might trouble you... Grandfather really liked the boiled fish among the dishes you made yesterday. Could you teach me how to make it? I can make it for him when I have time later..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Baobao immediately refused without a second thought, "This dish isn't difficult; you can go to a restaurant and find a professional chef to teach you."

"But the taste of the one you make is different."

Li Beijue seemed to have already thought of a countermeasure and spoke slowly, "Of course you can learn to make boiled fish anywhere, but Grandfather only likes the one you make, right?"

Jiang Baobao: "..."

Although that was true...

But just because he wanted to learn, did she have to teach him?

Jiang Baobao was just about to refuse again when she suddenly thought of something.

Wait a minute...

It wouldn't be impossible to teach him how to cook!

If he learned how, then Li Laoyezi wouldn't have to specifically call her over anymore!

It could also save some unnecessary awkwardness!

Thinking this, Jiang Baobao agreed, "That's not impossible, but I don't have time to go back recently. Let's talk about it another day..."

She said this and was about to hang up the phone.

But before she could act, she heard Li Beijue say calmly, "It's fine, I don't happen to be living at the Li Mansion recently. I'll send you the address in a moment. It's not far, so it won't take up much time."

"... Alright."

Jiang Baobao was silent for two seconds, finally agreed, and then hung up the phone.

Immediately after, she saw her phone flash, indicating a message.

She tapped it open and, sure enough, saw a line of an address sent by Li Beijue.

"Wangyue Road... Number 1121?"

Jiang Baobao read it out softly, and then was suddenly stunned.

Number 1121?

Isn't that right across from her!

The person who moved in yesterday was Li Beijue?

Jiang Baobao's eyes widened instantly; she rolled out of bed, ran to the window, and yanked the curtains open!

Immediately, she saw someone who shouldn't be here standing by the window directly across from her bedroom, holding a cup of coffee in his hand!

"Boom—!"

Jiang Baobao heard a string in her mind snap tight in an instant.

This guy is really... a lunatic!

No wonder he had agreed so easily before when she asked to move out with the children!

So this was the scheme he had in mind!

Jiang Baobao pulled the curtains shut with a huff, her temples throbbing, and simply turned around to go back to bed, intending to sleep a little longer.

Then, having rested for only half an hour, she heard a flurry of rapid footsteps coming from the hallway!

"Mommy! You don't need to take us today!"

Mobai's voice arrived before he did; he shouted as he ran in quickly from outside the door, pushing open the door to Jiang Baobao's bedroom.

Yanbao followed closely behind, his usually calm little face full of surprise as he said loudly.

"Mommy, did you know! Daddy moved into the place across the street! Daddy also said that from now on, he can take us first every day before going to the company, so that Mommy can get some good rest!"

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao let out a long, helpless sigh.

She knew this would be the result!

Then what was the point of her specifically moving out with the children?

Jiang Baobao felt a bit depressed; not wanting to say anything, she had no choice but to nod helplessly.

Immediately after, she heard Mobai switch to another topic: "By the way, Mommy, can you take us over to visit Daddy's new home tonight? Daddy also said that Mommy is going to teach him how to cook!"

Jiang Baobao choked again.

When did she ever agree to teach him tonight?

Li Beijue really knew how to make use of these little ones!

Jiang Baobao glared fiercely in the direction of the window, and suddenly had an idea.

So he wants to learn how to cook, does he!

Then let's see if he has the ability!

A look of mischief flashed in her eyes, and she then replied unhurriedly: "Of course, Mommy will teach your Daddy how to make the boiled fish from yesterday tonight, and you'll have something delicious to eat again this evening."

"Yay!" The two little ones cheered immediately and ran off in a whirlwind, intending to go tell Tiantian the good news.

Jiang Baobao, however, had completely lost her sleepiness; listening to the two little ones run away, she quickly grabbed her phone and started browsing.

Not long after, she successfully found the phone number she wanted.

She dialed it directly, and a few seconds later, the call was answered.

"Hello, is this Green Shade Farm? I'd like to order some things; could you please deliver them to this address later..."
