Chapter 68: The First Meeting Between Father and Daughter

Jiang Baobao's gaze flickered for a moment, and she did not speak.

Yanbao was sitting right here, so it was truly inappropriate to discuss these matters in front of him.

She had originally thought that Li Beijue could take good care of Yanbao.

But after the incident at school two days ago, her determination to take Yanbao away had only grown firmer!

Li Beijue simply did not know how to get along with children!

It was just that...

"For now, this is the only way; Li Beijue is watching Yanbao very closely."

Jiang Baobao smiled with some helplessness, glancing through the rearview mirror at Yanbao, who was sitting obediently and not speaking.

She did not want to disappoint this little fellow.

But making up with Li Beijue was truly too much of a fantasy.

Jiang Baobao was afraid that if she kept talking, Yanbao would become unhappy.

She took the initiative to change the subject and accelerated the car slightly.

Not long after, the car stopped in front of a restaurant with a very antique and classic decor.

"Wow! This place is so pretty! I've only ever seen it on TV! Mommy! What kind of yummy food is inside here?" The little foodie Tiantian hopped out of the car instantly.

She and Mobai had grown up abroad and had never seen architecture like this.

Jiang Baobao smiled and took her little hand, taking the initiative to introduce it: "There is so much delicious food inside! Let's see if your little tongue can work its magic today!"

Yanbao listened to the two of them talking, a trace of happiness flashing across his expression.

Tiantian seemed to really love eating!

If there was a chance in the future, he must bring her the desserts made by the uncle chef at home!

The four of them walked into the restaurant together and were led by a waiter into a private room that had already been reserved.

Jiang Baobao held the two little ones, placed them on her left and right, and took the menu.

"Wow! So much yummy food!" Tiantian looked at the colorful pictures on the menu, her expression unable to hide her happiness.

Cai Xiaotang's appetite was also whetted; as she flipped through it, she sighed repeatedly: "Tsk tsk tsk, the menus back home look so much more appetizing; I feel like throwing up whenever I see Western food now!"

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao replied with amusement: "Then you should eat a lot today! Order whatever you want!"

"Don't worry! I won't stand on ceremony with you!"

As Cai Xiaotang said this, she immediately called out the names of several dishes she liked.

Jiang Baobao also ordered dishes with the two little ones.

The waiter noted them down one by one, and before leaving, smiled and said: "We have unlimited ice cream and desserts in the Main Hall here; if you need any, you can go get them yourselves."

"Okay, thank you."

Jiang Baobao agreed, and her peripheral vision instantly caught the little girl sitting next to her making a move.

"Mommy! Ice cream! Can I have one? Please, I'm begging you..."

As she spoke, she winked at Yanbao beside her.

Yanbao received his precious sister's "distress signal" and immediately spoke up as well: "Mommy, I want to have an ice cream too!"

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao was suddenly caught between laughter and tears.

How long had these two little ones known each other?

They had already joined the same camp so quickly?

Tiantian was in the middle of changing her teeth, so Jiang Baobao usually didn't allow her to eat too much of these kinds of things.

But looking at the little girl's face full of anticipation, and thinking that she had just returned today, Jiang Baobao's heart softened instantly, and she had no choice but to agree: "Go ahead, but you can only have one, okay."

"Okay! I'll go get them! And I'll bring one back for Brother Yan too!"

The little girl was instantly so happy she jumped three feet high and disappeared outside the door of the private room in a flash.

She ran out from the hallway, stood outside and scanned the area, and saw the desserts and ice cream that were already prepared, neatly arranged in the refrigerated cabinet.

Tiantian's eyes lit up, and she ran over with big strides.

She glanced at the flavors in the freezer and felt a bit troubled for a moment.

"If I had known, I would have asked Brother Yan what flavor he liked just now..."

Tiantian hesitantly opened the freezer and chose a chocolate-flavored ice cream for Yanbao.

Then she saw that her favorite vanilla flavor only had one left!

"Wow! I'm so lucky!"

Tiantian happily grabbed the vanilla ice cream as well, then closed the cabinet door, planning to go back and show off to Jiang Baobao.

But who would have thought that just as she turned around, her nose was hit hard!

The ice cream in her hand also tilted violently!

"Ouch!"

The little girl lost her footing and bumped into the large freezer.

Tiantian furrowed her little brows, a wave of pain coming from her back where she had been knocked.

After finally steadying herself, she saw at a glance that her vanilla ice cream was now just a cone!

"What is wrong with you child? Do you not have eyes when you walk? Do you know how much this suit of President Li's costs?" A man's voice suddenly rang out, scolding Tiantian.

Hearing this, Tiantian instantly pouted, looked up in annoyance, but suddenly crashed into a pair of deep, black eyes.

She saw that the person standing before her was none other than Li Beijue!

Tiantian was stunned for a moment.

This uncle looks so handsome!

He looks like a movie star!

The little girl was stunned for a moment, unable to look away.

Li Beijue also stared at the little girl before him, suddenly taken aback...

For some reason, he always felt as if he had seen her somewhere before...

Her face gave him a very familiar feeling...

It was just like that girl from sixteen years ago!

If this little girl were a bit older, then her appearance would be just like that girl from sixteen years ago...

Li Beijue's brows suddenly furrowed slightly, and his expression became dazed for a moment.

Just at this moment—

"What is wrong with you, child? Hurry up and apologize!" The man beside Li Beijue, seeing that Tiantian did not react, continued to berate her, looking quite overbearing.

Tiantian had originally wanted to say sorry, but the words reached her lips and she swallowed them back in annoyance!

Couldn't this uncle just speak properly?

Her own ice cream had been knocked away!

If there was going to be an apology, both people should apologize together!

"Why should I be the one to apologize first? I was facing away from the door; this uncle is the one who bumped into me first!" Tiantian was not afraid of the few people in front of her at all and retorted loudly.

Li Beijue was deep in thought, but the man beside him was still clamoring: "If you won't apologize, then bring your parents here! I want to see what kind of people could raise such an ill-mannered child!"

"You're the one who's ill-mannered! What kind of adult bullies a little kid!" Tiantian retorted again.

She was always with Mobai, so her sharp little tongue was not to be trifled with.

Seeing this, Li Beijue frowned and said softly, "President Chen, isn't it a bit beneath your dignity to bicker with a little girl?"

He spoke suddenly, then casually used a handkerchief to wipe a large smear of ice cream off his suit, and said softly to Tiantian, "Little one, Uncle knocked over your ice cream, I'm sorry. Uncle apologizes to you, and I'll have someone get you a new one right away..."

After he finished speaking, he said to the person beside him, "Go help this little one get another ice cream..."

As soon as Li Beijue's voice fell, President Chen, who had just been accusing Tiantian, looked somewhat embarrassed.

Tiantian couldn't help but laugh, looked at President Chen beside her, pouted, and said, "Exactly! The uncle I bumped into didn't even blame me! Why are you being so fierce!"

Her puffed-up, angry little appearance immediately made the people around them laugh.

Even the corners of Li Beijue's mouth couldn't help but curl into a slight arc.
