Chapter 76: Mommy, You Need to Be Nicer to Daddy

"Li Beijue, do you have any idea what this sports meet means to Yanbao? Do you know what he wants? Have you ever tried to understand him? Is this your way of making him happy? Do you think you're doing a good job?"

Jiang Baobao launched the first attack, her tone through gritted teeth as if she wanted to tear the other person apart.

She couldn't take it anymore!

If Li Beijue continued like this, she would take Yanbao away even if it cost her her life!

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Li Beijue's eyes, and he ground out the words one by one through his teeth: "You have no right to lecture me here..."

"You're the one who has no right to talk to me about education!"

Jiang Baobao interrupted Li Beijue directly, her presence imposing.

Quite a few parents nearby had already noticed them.

Jiang Baobao knew this wasn't the time for an argument.

She quickly calmed herself down, and with forced patience, she whispered a "reminder": "Do you remember what those children who bullied Yanbao said before?"

Li Beijue's expression tightened; it was rare for him to be left speechless.

Of course he remembered the grievances Yanbao had suffered.

But...

Jiang Baobao had the upper hand, looking coldly at the person in front of her.

"I don't think you've appeared at the school much, have you? I'm the one who has stood up for Yanbao, and I'm the one recognized by his teachers and the other children. If you want to make Yanbao happy today, you should know what to do. The opening ceremony of the sports meet is about to start, and I don't have time to argue with you here."

Jiang Baobao couldn't be bothered to say more; she dropped that sentence, walked over to hug Yanbao, and strode toward the kindergarten entrance without looking back.

Yanbao had been watching them the whole time. As he was picked up by Jiang Baobao, his gaze couldn't help but fall on Li Beijue, who was standing motionless not far away.

Is Daddy not coming?

Yanbao's large eyes were instantly filled with disappointment.

"Mommy, did you and Daddy have a fight..."

Yanbao asked cautiously.

Jiang Baobao felt a sudden pang of heartache, but for a moment, she didn't know what to say.

A child's emotions are always the most sensitive.

Seeing that Li Beijue wasn't coming over, Jiang Baobao knew that no matter what she said, she couldn't properly comfort the little one in her arms, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Li Beijue is just a block of wood, a big ice cube!

He claims to be doing it for Yanbao, yet he can't even fulfill such a small wish for the child!

She was complaining in her heart when, the next second, she suddenly saw the little one in her arms change his expression abruptly, looking behind her in surprise.

Jiang Baobao was slightly stunned, a premonition suddenly flashing through her mind.

Before she could even turn around, she heard the man's cold voice ring out behind her.

"Let's go."

Li Beijue dropped the two words indifferently and lifted his foot to walk into the kindergarten first.

Jiang Baobao's expression instantly turned pleasantly surprised.

Was Li Beijue willing to join her and take Yanbao to the sports meet?

"Mommy! Let's go!" Yanbao's crisp voice pulled Jiang Baobao back to her senses.

Jiang Baobao nodded immediately, hurriedly smiled as she picked up the little one, and caught up with Li Beijue's pace.

The kindergarten was already packed with people.

On the massive playground, areas had been planned out according to classes.

As soon as Jiang Baobao walked in holding Yanbao, she felt a group of children staring straight at them, each one with wide eyes and full of curiosity.

"Wow! Li Xingyan! Your mom is so pretty!"

"Yeah! She looks like a big star on TV!"

A group of little girls chattered away, and several little boys also looked at Yanbao with envy.

Jiang Baobao smiled shyly and put the little one in her arms down.

Then she heard a child pull Yanbao and ask: "Yanbao, is that your daddy? Your daddy is so handsome too... it's just that he looks a bit fierce..."

"Pfft—"

Jiang Baobao couldn't help but laugh out loud.

She was instantly met with a glare from Li Beijue beside her.

Immediately after, she heard another child whisper: "Li Xingyan's daddy is just like that! I saw him in the classroom last time! His daddy is super cool!"

Upon hearing this, Li Beijue couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and take a few extra looks at the little boy who had just spoken.

The children's seats were connected to the parents'.

After chatting with the other children for a while, Yanbao wanted some quiet, so he pulled Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue to sit in the last row where there was no one.

Not long after, a young teacher ran over.

"Hello, you two must be Xingyan's parents."

This newly appointed teacher had long since learned of Yanbao's identity from the principal, and as she spoke, she gave Li Beijue and Jiang Baobao a fawning smile.

Then she hurriedly whispered: "It might be a bit sunny here, and the sports meet won't start for another half hour. Why don't you two take Xingyan to my office first..."

"No need."

Jiang Baobao interrupted the teacher coldly and rubbed Yanbao's little head.

"Although our Yanbao is a child from an ordinary family, he isn't that delicate. Teacher, just take good care of him. I think... there's no need to treat him differently from the other children, don't you agree?"

Jiang Baobao knew from the teacher's attitude that she must have found out something.

But like Li Beijue, she didn't want Yanbao's identity to be known by everyone.

After giving this hint, the teacher reacted immediately and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, Xingyan is still very obedient at school; I will certainly take good care of him, so please rest assured, both of you."

The teacher did not dare to say more, exchanged a few more polite words, and then turned to leave.

Li Beijue listened to everything that had just happened in silence, his expression thoughtful.

Jiang Baobao had indeed become very different...

He had never known that the woman beside him could also be so tactful.

And last time... she had revoked a teacher's teaching license just like that...

A trace of doubt suddenly welled up in Li Beijue's eyes, but he suddenly felt that the person beside him seemed to be looking at him.

"Speak your mind," Li Beijue said directly, meeting Jiang Baobao's gaze.

His temper had already been mostly vented at the school gate, and he was uncharacteristically calm.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Baobao said unhurriedly, "If you really want what's best for Yanbao, my approach just now was the correct one; otherwise, he wouldn't have been bullied before."

Jiang Baobao thought of the previous incident and felt angry, so she said it deliberately.

Li Beijue was stunned upon hearing this, and his mood, which had just recovered, instantly showed a tendency to slide again.

Was this woman lecturing him again?

He wanted to retort, but he had nothing to say.

Because Jiang Baobao was not wrong.

It was he who had ordered the principal not to reveal a single word about Yanbao's identity.

He had wanted to let Yanbao have some training in an ordinary environment, but he hadn't expected...

"Mommy, Daddy also did it for my own good. Now no one is bullying me anymore, so please don't blame him, okay?" Yanbao suddenly said.

Hearing Yanbao speak up for him, Li Beijue felt a slight warmth in his heart.

Jiang Baobao was also stunned upon hearing this; she sighed helplessly in her heart, her mood somewhat subtle.

Yanbao was raised single-handedly by Li Beijue, so naturally, he would defend him.

She had always thought about bringing him back to her side before.

However, what if he was reluctant to leave Li Beijue and didn't want to go with her?

After all, this little guy wanted her and Li Beijue to reconcile...
