~7 min read 1,270 words

"Yanbao was taken away by Daddy?" Jiang Baobao was also shocked upon hearing this, her heart instantly pounding with anxiety.

Li Beijue is here too?

This is too much of a coincidence, isn't it?

Why did it have to be today of all days...

Jiang Baobao didn't have time to react; she instinctively bolted out in pursuit!

Outside the door—

Yanbao had already been carried into the car by Li Beijue.

Just as Jiang Baobao poked her head out, she was abruptly yanked back by Cai Xiaotang.

"Be careful, don't let him see you..."

Seeing Li Beijue still glancing over from time to time, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly pulled Jiang Baobao into hiding.

The two adults and one child stood at the corner, watching helplessly as he drove away with Yanbao.

Jiang Baobao was full of annoyance and deep regret; she shouldn't have come to this restaurant.

Immediately after, she suddenly remembered another matter.

Oh no!

Mobai is still at the Li Mansion, taking Yanbao's place!

Thinking of this, her heart tightened sharply; she immediately took out her phone and dialed Mobai's number.

Mobai was happily playing a game, but seeing that the call was from Jiang Baobao, he hurriedly jumped off his chair, locked the door, and then answered.

Before he could even speak, he heard Jiang Baobao say anxiously: "Mobai! Yanbao has been taken home by your daddy! You must find a way to get out!"

"Huh? Mommy, what's going on?" Mobai's little brain couldn't process it for a moment, his face full of confusion.

Jiang Baobao didn't have time to explain much, so she could only say simply: "Mommy brought Yanbao out to eat and ran into your daddy. Yanbao was taken away by him, so you need to leave there quickly!"

"Oh! I understand! Don't worry, Mommy, I'll find a way to sneak out right now!"

Mobai agreed quickly, and after hanging up the phone, he dashed to the door in two steps.

Just as he was about to go out, he suddenly thought of something...

Right, that plan!!!

Thinking this, Mobai went back into the room and quietly left a note for Yanbao!

After finishing all this, little Mobai turned around quickly, went downstairs silently, and while no one was paying attention, snuck into the back garden and slipped out through the small side door that Jiang Baobao had mentioned.

Once he reached the main street, he quickly hailed a taxi and gave the address of the Training Base.

On the other side—

Jiang Baobao no longer had the mood to eat; she simply packed a few dishes and returned with Tiantian and Cai Xiaotang.

Then, unexpectedly, the moment she stepped inside, she saw a little "cannonball" flying toward her.

"Mommy! Did you miss me? Are you very lonely without me?"

Mobai had arrived home first and had been waiting here for Jiang Baobao's return.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a familiar little girl's voice ring in his ears.

"Brother is shameless! You're so big and still acting spoiled with Mommy! How embarrassing!"

Mobai was startled upon hearing this; he lifted his head from Jiang Baobao's embrace and saw Cai Xiaotang and Tiantian looking at him with smiles.

He paused for a moment, then revealed a big, bright smile.

"Godmother! Tiantian! When did you get back?"

Mobai was pleasantly surprised, then turned and threw himself into Cai Xiaotang's arms, not forgetting to hold Tiantian's little hand.

"I thought you had forgotten about your godmother!"

Cai Xiaotang chuckled as she picked him up, then pinched his little nose playfully: "Why did you run off earlier without saying a word? Do you know how worried your godmother and Tiantian were?"

Little Mobai felt a bit guilty thinking about it, so he smiled sheepishly and acted spoiled on purpose: "Godmother, I'm so smart, how could anything happen to me!"

Tiantian, on the other hand, said unconvinced from the side: "I'm very smart too! Brother, you have to take me with you next time!"

"There won't be a next time! From today on, both of you must behave and listen!"

Jiang Baobao listened to the two little ones' conversation, feeling both amused and frustrated; she pinched their little cheeks and instinctively said: "You two really don't make things easy for Mommy! Look at Yanbao..."

She stopped mid-sentence, pausing for a moment.

Yanbao...

I wonder what that little one is doing right now...

Has Li Beijue discovered the secret of the two children...

Mobai and Tiantian also fell silent, looking at each other, both feeling a bit sad.

"Mommy, when can Brother Yan live with us? I saw Daddy today... he looks very handsome, but I won't like him just because he's handsome. I really don't like him; why did he have to take Brother Yan away? Can't we have Brother Yan stay with us from now on?"

Tiantian didn't know about what had happened between Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue during this time, so she asked Jiang Baobao with childlike innocence.

Jiang Baobao didn't know how to answer for a moment, and the living room suddenly fell into a dead silence.

Seeing the atmosphere was a bit oppressive, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly changed the subject: "This matter needs to be discussed in the long run; it can't be decided right this second! Aren't you all tired? If you don't eat now, the food we packed will get cold!"

"Oh, right! There's yummy food!" Little foodie Tiantian was immediately distracted.

Fearing that the two darlings would go hungry, Jiang Baobao hurriedly brought them to the dining table.

Watching the two little ones eat happily, her mind was filled with the other well-behaved little one.

Jiang Baobao sighed helplessly in her heart.

Of course, she also wanted Yanbao to come back and live with them...

But Li Beijue would never let go.

She had to find another way.

……

Li Mansion——

Yanbao was well-behaved the entire way back and didn't say much.

Li Beijue didn't reproach him any further either.

Only after entering the door did he give a simple instruction: "Yanbao, Daddy doesn't want there to be a next time for this incident. Can you do that?"

"I can." Yanbao nodded obediently, then lowered his voice to apologize: "Daddy, it really was my fault today. I won't do it again in the future."

Seeing him being so obedient, Li Beijue felt much more relieved.

He said a couple more things before letting the little guy go upstairs to rest.

Yet he himself stood where he was, staring at Yanbao's back, lost in thought.

Yanbao's condition... it seemed to have suddenly recovered again?

He had turned back into that well-behaved and sensible little Yanbao...

Thinking of this, Li Beijue immediately thought of Jiang Baobao; looking at it this way, he wouldn't need that woman Jiang Baobao to take care of the child!

……

Upstairs——

Yanbao returned to his room feeling unhappy, and as soon as he entered, he caught sight of his little schoolbag tossed onto the table.

He blinked his eyes, then stepped forward helplessly to pick up the schoolbag.

It must have been Mobai who threw the schoolbag here...

Yanbao thought to himself as he neatly hung the schoolbag on the coat rack.

His gaze, however, inadvertently caught a note tucked into the side of the schoolbag.

The little guy's eyes paused slightly, a certain premonition suddenly rising within him, and he pulled the note out.

He thought for a moment, then went to lock the door before opening the note.

After just one glance, his eyes immediately lit up.

This really was a note left by Mobai!
