Chapter 562: Cai Xiaotang and Li Xiao are very strange
Soon, Li Beijue gave orders that no one in the house was to mention the kidnapping of Yanbao.
Yanbao's body also recovered quickly, and there were no further abnormalities in his emotions.
A few more days passed, and he had completely returned to his former self, as if nothing had ever happened.
The weekend—
Jiang Baobao was worrying about where to take the three little ones to play when Cai Xiaotang suddenly called.
As soon as Jiang Baobao picked up, she heard Cai Xiaotang nervously ask on the other end: "Baobao! Yanbao had an accident a few days ago, why didn't you tell me?"
"Huh? How did you know?" Jiang Baobao was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
This matter had been kept very quiet; apart from the people at Li Mansion and the Liu Family, even the uncle didn't know.
How could Xiao Tang suddenly call to ask about it?
As Jiang Baobao was thinking, she heard Cai Xiaotang reply on the other end: "I heard it from Li Xiao. When we were chatting, we happened to talk about Xinaijie's wedding, and then mentioned Liu Rumeng. If he hadn't told me, I wouldn't even have known that woman was already in prison! She has such nerve! To think she dared to set her sights on Yanbao! Locking her up for a lifetime is getting off easy!"
Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but get angry as soon as she brought up this matter.
Jiang Baobao's expression, however, was somewhat subtle.
How did Li Xiao know about this?
It certainly wouldn't have been Li Beijue who told him...
Li Xiao... what exactly does he do?
A flash of doubt crossed Jiang Baobao's eyes, and she couldn't help but become a bit distracted.
Immediately, she heard Cai Xiaotang calling her on the other end: "Baobao! Are you listening to me! Hello?"
"I'm here, I'm here!" Jiang Baobao hurriedly replied. Sensing the displeasure in her tone, she quickly comforted her: "I didn't tell you before because I was afraid you'd worry... but now that you know, I won't hide it from you anymore. The situation is just as you know it; Liu Rumeng wanted to harm Yanbao, but fortunately, we managed to save him in the end..."
Jiang Baobao briefly explained the situation of that day and the events of that year.
"Tsk... truly insane!"
Cai Xiaotang's tone was through gritted teeth: "She really played a huge game! She wanted to use Yanbao to completely drive a wedge between you and Li Beijue. Fortunately, Yanbao was lucky!"
The more she spoke, the angrier she became, then she suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked: "So how is Yanbao now? Is he better?"
"He's fine now, it's just that... after he came back, he had a high fever and forgot all about the kidnapping."
Jiang Baobao did not tell Cai Xiaotang about Yanbao's medical condition.
Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang was immediately heartbroken: "Ah? He had a high fever? Our Yanbao is so pitiful... but, it's good that he forgot it all, it saves him from being left with any psychological trauma..."
As Cai Xiaotang spoke, she suddenly had an idea and said excitedly: "That's perfect, I have nothing to do today! If you're free too, why don't we take the three of them to the amusement park? Consider it a way to comfort the little ones' wounded hearts!"
"The amusement park... that's not a bad idea! I was just worrying about where to take them today. Let's head out now and meet at the entrance of the amusement park in a while, how about that?"
Jiang Baobao agreed without a second thought.
The two hit it off immediately, chatted a bit more, and then hung up the phone.
Jiang Baobao immediately went to find the three little ones to announce the good news.
Upon hearing they could go to the amusement park, the three little ones were instantly overjoyed.
"Yay! We haven't been to the amusement park in such a long time!"
Mobai was the first to jump up, then he grabbed Yanbao and Tiantian and turned to run back to their rooms to pack their little bags for the outing.
Jiang Baobao also tidied up a bit and then took them out.
One hour later—
The group arrived at the amusement park entrance right on time.
Cai Xiaotang had arrived a little earlier than them, had already bought the tickets, and was waiting with great enthusiasm.
"Godmother!!!"
Tiantian rushed over, gave Cai Xiaotang a big hug, and kissed her.
Cai Xiaotang was immediately all smiles, kissed the little girl on the face several times, and then hurriedly looked at Yanbao on the side.
"Yanbao, Godmother heard you had a fever a few days ago. Are you better now?"
Cai Xiaotang asked with a smile.
Yanbao immediately nodded obediently: "Mm-hmm! I'm all better! Godmother doesn't need to worry!"
Only then did Cai Xiaotang feel relieved, and she exchanged a look with Jiang Baobao without drawing attention to it.
The two of them took the three little ones and walked toward the entrance of the amusement park.
They hadn't walked more than two steps when Jiang Baobao caught a glimpse of two familiar men who seemed to be following behind.
She pretended to glance over casually and was immediately somewhat surprised, yet it was also within her expectations.
"Xiao Tang, these two bodyguards... are they the same two from last time? Does Li Xiao have them follow you every day?"
Jiang Baobao leaned into Cai Xiaotang's ear and whispered.
Cai Xiaotang hadn't expected Jiang Baobao to notice, and a look of unnaturalness flashed across her face. She then pretended to answer casually: "Yeah, I told him I didn't need any bodyguards, but some people just won't rest easy, and every time I go out, he has to have two people follow me..."
Fearing that Jiang Baobao might suspect something, she deliberately put on a sweet yet troubled expression.
Jiang Baobao paused upon hearing this, and sure enough, she just smiled and nodded without saying anything more, though she had some doubts in her heart.
Even if Xiao Tang and Li Xiao were in a good relationship... surely there was no need to send bodyguards to follow her every time?
It was as if he were afraid that something might happen to Xiao Tang...
Pfft, pfft, pfft!
What am I thinking!
What could possibly happen to Xiao Tang?
It was probably just her overthinking things...
Perhaps Li Xiao only seems to treat life like a game, but when he actually meets someone he likes, he really does want to hold them in the palm of his hand like this?
She should be happy for Xiao Tang!
Better stop overthinking!
Jiang Baobao silently suppressed the doubts in her heart, forcing herself to ignore the two bodyguards following not too far behind her.
It had been a long time since Mobai had been to an amusement park; the moment he stood in front of the amusement rides, he was like a wild horse let loose.
Before Jiang Baobao could even say anything, he had already pulled Yanbao and Tiantian onto the children's Pirate Ship.
Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang had no choice but to stand to one side with a smile, listening to the giggling sounds of the three little ones on the ship, and could not help but feel happy along with them.
The five of them played like this for the whole day, until dusk, when they finally left the amusement park to the sound of the park's closing broadcast.
Cai Xiaotang was incredibly happy today; the moment they stepped out the gate, she asked loudly, "Is there anything you three want to eat? Godmother is treating today!"
The three little ones cheered immediately.
Jiang Baobao was smiling on the side, but she saw that of the two men who had been following behind, one of them was currently on a phone call.
He was saying something to the person on the other end of the line while looking over in her direction.
She frowned slightly, and the doubts she had originally suppressed could not help but rise again.
Those two bodyguards... were they reporting Xiao Tang's whereabouts to Li Xiao?
