Chapter 62: Daddy, Mommy, Let's Remarry

~7 min read 1,400 words

Li Beijue's expression was so gloomy it was as if he wanted to kill someone; upon hearing this, he quickly shook off Jiang Baobao's hand!

"What right do you have to lecture me? Yanbao has the surname Li! He is my son! It is not your place to worry about him! Don't let me see you appear by his side ever again!"

As he spoke, he adjusted his collar, which she had pulled open, with an expression of disgust.

Immediately after, he issued an ultimatum in a stern voice: "Within three days, get back abroad, or don't blame me for using special measures!"

Li Beijue dropped this sentence and turned to leave.

Jiang Baobao stood frozen in place; seeing Mobai looking at her side with concern from the car window, she couldn't help but lower her eyelids.

The car slowly started and gradually disappeared outside the Base.

Yet Jiang Baobao stood at the entrance for a long time without moving.

Not until she felt someone tugging at the corner of her clothes.

"Mommy... did you and Daddy have a fight..." Yanbao had vaguely heard for a long time in the room just now and couldn't help but ask worriedly.

Jiang Baobao's expression was dejected; upon hearing this, she forced a smile.

She hugged Yanbao and returned to the sofa, but she had no energy to speak, her mind filled with Li Beijue's threat from just a moment ago.

She understood Li Beijue; he likely wasn't just trying to scare her!

Li Beijue was truly capable of doing anything!

As Jiang Baobao thought this, she suddenly felt the little one in her arms move.

Immediately after, she heard Yanbao ask cautiously: "Mommy... you and Daddy must have loved each other to have us, why can't you make up?"

Loved each other?

She and Li Beijue had never loved each other!

Before, it was her own unrequited wish, and now even more so...

Jiang Baobao was stunned upon hearing this, but she wasn't too surprised.

She knew that these two little ones must have been curious for a long time in private, but had been holding back from asking.

Jiang Baobao pondered for a moment, then asked back with a faint smile: "Yanbao, do you want Daddy and Mommy to make up?"

Yanbao nodded without hesitation: "Of course! If Daddy and Mommy make up, then we will be a family!"

Yanbao's little face held a hint of anticipation as he held onto Jiang Baobao's hand while speaking: "Mommy, actually Daddy is really good! Although he is very strict with me usually, I know that it's all for my own good! And no matter what wish I have, Daddy will satisfy me! Although he is a bit fierce sometimes, he has never hit me..."

The little one kept promoting Li Beijue's merits to Jiang Baobao, hoping she would change her mind.

As Jiang Baobao listened, the expression on her face gradually became somewhat melancholy.

Her thoughts drifted further and further away.

Even if she wanted to make up with Li Beijue, he certainly wouldn't be willing, right!

Sixteen years...

These children were already five years old.

The bond between the two seemed deeper than before, yet the distance between them only grew further and further.

She was long past being that young girl who was full of only Li Beijue.

Li Beijue had also never truly held her in his heart, not even for a second.

Even if she was his life-saving benefactor!

But a person like him who was ungrateful simply didn't deserve for others to be good to him!

Moreover, the better one was, the more one got hurt!

She didn't want to be hurt by him again...

Jiang Baobao sighed in her heart and shook her head gently.

"Mommy... don't you want to make up with Daddy?"

Yanbao had been carefully observing Jiang Baobao's expression and asked with some disappointment.

Jiang Baobao snapped back to reality and hurriedly forced a smile.

"Baby, some things cannot be forced. Mommy can promise you that if there is a chance... Mommy will try again with Daddy, is that okay?"

"Mm-hmm!"

After hearing this, Yanbao nodded heavily, the disappointment from just now swept away, his face full of joy.

As long as Mommy agreed, there was a chance!

He would definitely work hard to make Daddy and Mommy make up!

Jiang Baobao looked at the excited little one in front of her, her heart stirred slightly, feeling a bit guilty.

No matter what she and Li Beijue did, the harm to these children was the greatest...

As Jiang Baobao thought this, she suddenly heard her phone vibrate.

She picked it up casually, saw it was a call from Cai Xiaotang, and hurriedly answered it.

Before she could speak, she heard the person on the other end of the phone say loudly: "I want to announce a major piece of news! I'm finally done with my work! I can bring Tiantian back to the country the day after tomorrow!"

"Really? So fast? I've missed Tiantian so much!" Jiang Baobao's expression brightened upon hearing this, her mood suddenly improving.

Yanbao's eyes also lit up.

Tiantian?

He could finally see his younger sister!

He didn't know if his sister would like him; after all, Mobai was so lively, while he didn't like to talk...

Yanbao was suddenly a little nervous; when he came back to his senses, he heard that Jiang Baobao had already hung up the phone.

"Mommy, is Tiantian sister coming back?" Yanbao asked hurriedly.

Jiang Baobao nodded with a smile: "Yes, you will be able to see your sister then. She will definitely like you, you don't need to be nervous."

She saw at a glance what the little one in front of her was thinking and hurriedly comforted him in a low voice, though she couldn't help but feel a bit worried in her heart.

That little girl Tiantian is also coming back...

He will definitely protect her well!

He must absolutely not let Li Beijue discover her!

On the other side—

Mobai sat in the car, his eyes unable to help but size up Li Beijue beside him.

Although he hadn't heard the argument between the two just now, he had seen it clearly from inside the car.

The bad daddy seemed to have lost his temper at Mommy again just now!

Mobai felt a little bit unhappy inside, and couldn't help but ponder how to "torment" him after they got back.

But then he suddenly thought of Yanbao.

Yanbao had always hoped that Daddy and Mommy would reconcile...

How about... he probes a little bit?

He had just intended to speak, but saw Li Beijue beside him suddenly make a move.

"Yanbao, what did you do at school? Why didn't you call me?"

Li Beijue had originally wanted to wait for this little guy to confess on his own, but he hadn't expected that after being in the car for so long, he hadn't said a single word, so he finally couldn't hold back and took the initiative to ask.

Hearing this, Mobai was stunned, and quickly ran through the answers he should give in his mind.

Yanbao had already told him the whole sequence of events...

He should just say something casual, otherwise he might end up getting scolded!

Mobai made up his mind, and then opened his mouth to say: "Daddy, I just had a little conflict with another kid. Because I was afraid of delaying your work, I didn't call you..."

Li Beijue's expression shifted slightly, and his eyes immediately narrowed.

Had a little conflict?

If that were really the case, how could he have possibly called Jiang Baobao and even left school early?

Li Beijue knew the little guy in front of him wasn't telling the truth, but he didn't intend to keep asking further.

Mobai, however, couldn't help but ask: "Daddy, why can't you be with Mommy?"

He had been curious about this question for a long time, and his little face was full of confusion.

Hearing this, Li Beijue's fingers tightened abruptly, a dark light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he asked back in a low voice: "Did she tell you to ask?"

Mobai immediately shook his head: "No, I'm just curious myself."

Li Beijue did not speak.

But in his mind, he couldn't help but recall the events of that year...
