Chapter 799: I'll Wait for You to Come Back

In the afternoon—Cai Xiaotang suddenly arrived at the door carrying a large pile of things.

The three little ones welcomed her in, then curiously checked what she had brought.

"Wow! These clothes are so pretty!"

Tiantian picked up a pair of small socks, put them on her own hands, and muttered softly: "So small..."

"Because these aren't for you, they're for the little baby!"

As Cai Xiaotang said this, she took out the things she had bought for the three little ones from another bag.

"Wow! It's a gift! Thank you, Godmother!"

The three of them immediately thanked her and sat down to the side, happily starting to unwrap their gifts.

Jiang Baobao, however, looked at the pile of little socks, hats, and similar items that Cai Xiaotang had brought, and couldn't help but find it a bit amusing.

"Why have you started preparing so early? This little one hasn't even taken shape yet..."

Jiang Baobao gently stroked her lower abdomen, smiling with a face full of happiness.

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang immediately said with a straight face: "You still have to prepare in advance! But since we don't know if it's a boy or a girl yet, I specifically didn't buy clothes; I bought little things that can be used daily, and there are even super cute pacifiers!"

As she spoke, she showed the things she had bought to Jiang Baobao as if presenting a treasure.

"They are very cute."

Jiang Baobao smiled as she took them, and just as she finished speaking, her peripheral vision suddenly caught Li Beijue walking down from upstairs.

Seeing that Cai Xiaotang was there, he gave a simple greeting.

Then, he suddenly walked over to the television and turned on the sound system.

Melodious piano music suddenly echoed in the living room.

Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang were both stunned for a moment, and the three little ones also looked over in confusion.

Five pairs of eyes stared in unison at Li Beijue.

He had no choice but to turn around and explain to Jiang Baobao: "Listening to some music is better for the child's development; perhaps they will have a talent for it in the future."

Jiang Baobao: "..."

Isn't it a bit too early for Li Beijue to be considering these things?

She felt a bit helpless and was about to speak when she suddenly heard Cai Xiaotang beside her burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, does this count as prenatal education? Isn't it a bit too early!"

"Godmother, what is prenatal education?"

Mobai asked hurriedly.

"Prenatal education is..."

Cai Xiaotang pondered for two seconds before saying: "It means when the little baby is still in Mommy's tummy, you have to read to them, listen to music, and talk to them. That way, when they are born, they will become very smart!"

"Oh~ so that's how it is..."

Yanbao nodded with a look of sudden realization.

Then, they saw Tiantian suddenly bend over, press her ear against Jiang Baobao's tummy, and mutter: "Little baby, can you hear me talking? I'm your big sister! I super love eating all kinds of delicious food! Can we eat together in the future?"

The adults were all amused by the little girl's cute reaction.

Mobai and Yanbao exchanged a glance and also hurriedly crowded over.

Then, they each introduced themselves to Jiang Baobao's tummy: "Little baby! I'm big brother Mobai! I... am especially good at playing on the computer! I can teach you everything in the future, and we can play together!"

"I'm big brother Yan! Little baby, I can teach you how to draw!"

The three of them spoke one after another to Jiang Baobao's tummy, as if the little one inside could really hear their voices.

Cai Xiaotang had long since been laughing until she was doubled over, and Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue also couldn't help but chuckle.

The group chatted for a while longer, and it wasn't until dusk that Cai Xiaotang left.

She was in a good mood, so she specifically went to the city center to buy a cake before returning to Li Xiao's villa.

Just as she entered the door, she bumped into Li Xiao, who was just about to head out.

A large group of people was following behind him.

"Are you going out?"

"You're back?"

The two spoke almost simultaneously, then stopped at the same time.

Li Xiao paused slightly before explaining: "Going out to handle some business. I thought you would have dinner over there today, or stay the night."

"No, I don't like being a third wheel..."

Cai Xiaotang replied casually, but seeing from the corner of her eye that he and the people behind him were all dressed in black, she couldn't help but feel a bit worried.

Didn't they say there wasn't much going on lately?

Where is Li Xiao going again?

Is there danger?

Will he get hurt?

She felt conflicted, but with so many people present, it wasn't easy to directly ask about such confidential matters.

Li Xiao, however, suddenly reached out and ruffled Cai Xiaotang's hair, looking at the cake in her hand.

"I'm heading out first. Can you wait for me to come back so we can eat the cake together?"

His tone was relaxed, as if he weren't going to handle anything difficult and would be back soon.

Cai Xiaotang's heart stirred, and she nodded gently.

"Then you'd better be quick."

Her tone was the same as usual, though her brows couldn't help but furrow slightly.

Li Xiao prepared to leave.

Walking to the doorway, he suddenly stopped.

"Laoqi, you stay behind."

Li Xiao said suddenly.

Laoqi, having been named, was stunned for a moment, then immediately replied, "Yes."

Li Xiao said nothing more and led his men out the door.

The door closed, and in the quiet villa, only Cai Xiaotang and Laoqi remained.

Cai Xiaotang blinked, suddenly feeling that things did not seem as simple as she had thought.

If there really was nothing going on, why would Li Xiao specifically leave someone to protect her?

"Laoqi, Li Xiao, he..."

Cai Xiaotang's gaze flickered for an instant as she looked at the person beside her.

But before she could finish her sentence, she saw that his expression had already become somewhat troubled.

Cai Xiaotang stopped in time, not continuing to ask, and handed the cake in her hand directly to Laoqi: "Could you please put this away for me? I'm going upstairs to rest first. You've worked hard today."

After speaking, she went straight back to her room, though she still felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.

Li Xiao... what exactly is he going to do?

On the other side—outside the Heiyao Clubhouse.

Several cars parked quietly at the back entrance.

Li Xiao got out of the car, and two people immediately walked over from the shadows, saying in low voices: "The person is inside, the deal has just begun. Shura, shall we..."

"Go straight in."

A dark glint flashed in Li Xiao's eyes as he strode toward the inside of the clubhouse.

The terrain here was extremely complex.

Every private room was separated by half a corridor's distance; it could be said that both its security and privacy were extremely high.

At the end of the corridor, a large door was tightly shut.

Inside the room, two men lightly clinked their wine glasses together.

"Mr. Lin's test... is truly a bit difficult. To want to transport the goods from Shura's hands and sell them to me without anyone knowing, Mr. Chu has really worked hard."

"Heh..."

The man addressed as Mr. Chu chuckled, his face full of disdain.

"That piece of trash, Viper, I said long ago that he would sooner or later die at Shura's hands. If it were Mr. Lin, and you had come to me sooner..."

The other party immediately smiled and said: "Mr. Chu's methods are naturally more brilliant than Viper's. From now on, the domestic business will be taken over by Mr. Chu, and Mr. Lin can also rest easy..."

His voice had just fallen—"Bang!"

A wisp of white smoke slowly rose from the tightly locked door lock.
