Chapter 687: Doing Something Sweet

"Anyway, this matter is decided just like this; I have already thought it through."

Cai Xiaotang did not wait for Jiang Baobao to speak before adding another sentence.

Jiang Baobao had no choice but to say helplessly: "Then... alright, although I think it's a bit of a pity, I still respect your choice. Will you be staying abroad for a while longer? With only the two of you there... you... won't you feel awkward?"

Cai Xiaotang choked upon hearing this, suddenly feeling speechless.

How could it not be awkward?

She wished she could return to the country immediately and stay quietly by herself!

But...

"His injuries haven't healed yet, and... if I go back alone and leave him here, my brother will be suspicious if he finds out..."

Cai Xiaotang replied helplessly.

Jiang Baobao suddenly realized: "Oh, right... your brother doesn't know about the two of you yet... Then how is Li Xiao's recovery going? He wouldn't have to stay there for several months, would he?"

"Who knows..."

Cai Xiaotang answered casually, and couldn't help but think of what Mu Liusu had said just now.

Listening to her brother's meaning, that guy simply had a super-human ability to recover...

There was no reason for it to drag on for this long this time...

Could it be that he was doing it on purpose?

Cai Xiaotang frowned slightly and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Xiao Tang? Xiao Tang?"

Jiang Baobao's voice suddenly came through the phone, pulling back Cai Xiaotang's wandering thoughts.

"Hmm? I'm here, I was just a bit distracted..."

Cai Xiaotang hurriedly answered.

Jiang Baobao immediately repeated the question from just before: "I said, since you can't return to the country, if you don't want to stay alone with Li Xiao, do you want to come find me? Just consider it coming over to relax."

"No."

Cai Xiaotang refused without even thinking: "I already said, I won't be a third wheel for you this time. You just go ahead and enjoy your honeymoon in peace. I'm perfectly fine, it's just a failed unrequited love; I'm not going to be desperate enough to die over it..."

"Are you sure?"

Jiang Baobao was a bit worried about her.

"Don't you worry! I'm completely fine! There are plenty of men in the world; I wouldn't hang myself from a single tree, would I?"

Cai Xiaotang's tone was firm, trying her best to make her emotions sound completely normal.

Jiang Baobao had no choice but to say nothing more, and after the two chatted for a few more sentences, she hung up the phone.

She put down her phone, and thinking about how Cai Xiaotang had just said Li Xiao already had someone he liked, she couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.

She didn't seem to have heard Li Beijue mention Li Xiao's relationship issues before...

Could it be that he had been secretly in love with someone else all along?

Just as Jiang Baobao was thinking, she saw the three little ones suddenly walking toward her out of the corner of her eye.

"Mommy! Look!"

Tiantian held a rose made of Lego bricks in her hand, carefully showing it to her.

"Wow! Did the three of you make this? It's so beautiful!"

Jiang Baobao was a bit surprised and hurriedly offered praise.

"My brothers taught me! If Mommy likes it, I'll go make two more!"

The little girl was very pleased with Jiang Baobao's praise, and while speaking, she hurriedly turned around, intending to continue making more.

"Mommy! We're going too!"

Mobai also hurriedly pulled Yanbao to go find Tiantian, and the three of them were soon immersed in the Lego pile again.

For some time now, the three little ones had been stuck together almost every day.

Mobai and Yanbao had even displayed their full potential as older brothers, taking care of Tiantian in every possible way.

Mobai had become much more restrained, even losing his usual teasing, and just racked his brains every day to find ways to make Tiantian happy.

The little girl's mood was indeed much more cheerful than when she first arrived.

Although she would still be a bit sad when mentioning her "Brother Shitou," she had already accepted the fact.

Jiang Baobao watched them play for a long time with a smile, and suddenly remembering there were snacks in the oven, she hurriedly wanted to get up to get them.

She didn't disturb the children and went silently to the kitchen.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she entered the door, she would be hugged from behind.

"Are you done with your work?"

She asked with a smile, knowing who it was without turning around.

"Mm."

Li Beijue responded casually, and as he spoke, his scorching breath was already spilling onto her neck.

"It's ticklish... stop it..."

Jiang Baobao dodged subconsciously, but her tone was smiling.

Li Beijue not only didn't restrain himself, but instead lightly bit her fair, tender skin, leaving a red mark.

"I'm not messing with you... I missed you..."

His sweet words came easily, carrying an inseparable tenderness, his voice gradually becoming hoarse.

Jiang Baobao, however, seemed to have sensed something and instantly became vigilant: "I came to get snacks for them! You are not allowed to do anything weird!"

"Hmm?"

Li Beijue let out a soft hum, deliberately pretending not to understand her words as he asked back: "What do you mean by 'anything weird'?"

Jiang Baobao blushed even more instantly: "You... you're asking when you already know!"

Her voice had just fallen when, the next second, she was suddenly scooped up horizontally!

"Li Beijue!"

Jiang Baobao subconsciously reached out to wrap her arms around his neck, glaring at him in embarrassment and anger.

Li Beijue, however, had already carried her out of the kitchen and proceeded into the nearest guest room.

The door closed, and a few ambiguous, soft sounds drifted from within.

"Do you still remember the first day you arrived, when you asked me... why, besides the master bedroom, all the guest rooms here were also fully furnished?"

Li Beijue trapped the person in his arms against the wall, his eyes brimming with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Baobao subconsciously glanced at the tidy bed not far away; a flash of shock quickly crossed her eyes, followed immediately by shyness.

Because...

Because it's convenient for someone to transform into a "beast" anytime, anywhere?

She couldn't think of any other reason besides that!

However... for some time recently, she had indeed "neglected" him for quite a while...

"You... you are such a person..."

Jiang Baobao was both annoyed and amused; pointing her finger at the person before her, she simply didn't know what to say.

"What about me?"

Li Beijue took the opportunity to lower his head, lightly biting her fingertip, and when he looked up again, he directly blocked her breath.

"Mmph..."

Jiang Baobao felt a numbness in her fingertip and her whole body instantly went soft, half-resisting and half-yielding to someone's "beastly" behavior.

Not until she felt the soft bed beneath her did she suddenly snap to her senses, hurriedly interrupting: "Wait a moment..."

"I'm afraid I can't wait..."

Li Beijue domineeringly blocked her words back, with only scorching breath flowing between them.

Before long, Jiang Baobao had completely "surrendered," though she couldn't help but complain in a soft, intermittent voice: "Tiantian and the others... if they can't find me in a while... they'll be worried..."

Li Beijue kissed the corner of her mouth with amusement: "They are so smart, they won't come to disturb us..."

His scorching palms slowly moved downward, forcefully pressing the distance between the two of them tightly together.

Since they were here for a honeymoon...

Then they should do a few more sweet things... shouldn't they?
