Chapter 826: Wanting to Give Li Xiao a Gift

~7 min read 1,334 words

"Xiao Tang? Xiao Tang?"

Seeing Cai Xiaotang suddenly start to daze, Jiang Baobao couldn't help but call her twice.

"Hmm?"

Cai Xiaotang snapped back to her senses, only then realizing she had been distracted for half a day.

Immediately after, she saw Jiang Baobao looking somewhat worried.

"Are you okay? Although I said that just now, it was only a guess, but I think if the other party only has these few tricks, it won't have any impact on you and Li Xiao, and given your personality, if she really dared to do something blatantly, you certainly wouldn't tolerate it."

"That goes without saying!"

Cai Xiaotang immediately answered with a firm expression.

"That's right."

Jiang Baobao smiled: "I know you too well; if someone goes head-to-head with you, you will definitely snap back, but if the other person seems very good-tempered and gentle, you conversely won't have the heart to lose your temper."

"Hehe... no choice, that's just my personality..."

Cai Xiaotang pouted, not wanting to talk about this topic anymore, and hurriedly spoke first: "Don't talk about me, how is that little one in your belly? Have you thought of any nicknames or anything like that?"

Jiang Baobao shook her head: "As for that... not yet, because I don't know the baby's gender yet, so it's not easy to decide on a name."

"That's true too..."

Cai Xiaotang was lost in thought, then muttered in a low voice: "I wonder who this little one will look more like this time..."

"We'll know once they're born. Mobai and Yanbao both look like Li Beijue, and Tiantian looks a bit more like me, but if it's a little boy who looks like me, or a little girl who looks like Li Beijue, that seems pretty good too, right?"

Jiang Baobao couldn't help but start imagining what the little one in her belly would look like in the future.

Cai Xiaotang, however, didn't know what she thought of, and burst out laughing with a 'pfft'.

Jiang Baobao was instantly attracted, and hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? What ghost idea do you have again, laughing so happily?"

Cai Xiaotang waved her hands repeatedly, hurriedly explaining with a smile.

"It's nothing, I just thought of how I saw someone online saying that if you're pregnant, you should plaster the room with photos of handsome men and look at them every day during pregnancy; that way, the child born will also be very handsome!"

"Ah? There's such a saying?"

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Cai Xiaotang immediately instigated: "Yeah, do you want to try it? I remember when you were in school, you had favorite male celebrities too, right?"

"I did have some..."

Jiang Baobao was lost in thought.

Although Li Beijue is also very handsome and his looks are top-tier, not a bit worse than those male celebrities in the entertainment industry, but... it doesn't hinder her from plastering a bunch of handsome men to look at, right?

It's all for the child, after all.

Thinking this, Jiang Baobao suddenly curled her lips slightly.

"How about it! Are you moved by what I said!"

As soon as Cai Xiaotang saw her reveal a smile, she knew she had been persuaded, and was suddenly a bit excited.

The two chatted happily for another half a day, but Cai Xiaotang suddenly said with some regret: "But with you pregnant, you won't have time to go out and play for at least a year or so; at most, you'll come out to eat with me, and traveling is out of the question..."

"Who said that?"

Jiang Baobao asked back with a smile, also thinking of something, and hurriedly said: "We can't go traveling, but we can go to other places for a vacation. I just happen to have something to tell you; I would have forgotten if you hadn't brought up going out to play!"

"What?"

Hearing this, Cai Xiaotang was a bit curious.

Jiang Baobao explained: "Li Corporation has a ski resort opening soon. Because it was built to the scale of a vacation resort, the ski resort also has a hot spring hotel and various entertainment facilities. Since the hotel plans to apply for a rating, I plan to..."

"Hand this project to me?"

Cai Xiaotang's eyes lit up.

"Exactly!"

Jiang Baobao said, unable to help feeling a bit excited.

"I plan to make you the general manager directly. That way, we can go there to play, and you won't have to be too busy. Basically, the lower level will finish the assessments, and then hand them to you for review. How is it? Doesn't it sound great? I've already discussed it with Li Beijue; he originally planned to look for your company, so it's perfect to hand it to you, and you can even be lazy while you're at it! I'll be going too! We can play together for a few days!"

"This is too awesome!"

Cai Xiaotang was so excited she almost jumped out of her chair.

She can work!

And go on vacation at the same time!

It's simply a divine life!

"I accept this task! It just so happens the work on hand is almost finished!"

Cai Xiaotang agreed without a second thought, and the two chatted for another long while before finally ending dinner.

Just as they stepped out of the restaurant, Li Beijue's car arrived right on time.

"Wow~ as expected of the exclusive treatment for pregnant women, now there's a private car to pick me up every day when I go out~"

As soon as Cai Xiaotang saw Li Beijue, she deliberately teased.

Jiang Baobao immediately retorted with amusement: "Then why don't you hurry up and get pregnant too? Wouldn't you have the same treatment then?"

"Baobao! Why have you started urging me too! Forget it, you guys should hurry back!"

Cai Xiaotang acted as if her little tail had been grabbed, and hurriedly turned around to get in the car and slip away without another word.

Yet she couldn't help but feel a bit absent-minded.

A child...

She and Li Xiao... will have one in the future, right?

I wonder who they will look more like...

But whether it's a boy or a girl, they definitely won't be a quiet little one!

Because neither she nor Li Xiao seemed to have "quiet" as a component of their personalities.

Cai Xiaotang thought to herself, and the image of Luo Wanwan suddenly appeared in her mind.

Luo Wanwan was very quiet... and her temper was also very good...

Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath, realized her train of thought was drifting again, and hurriedly shook her head.

Why was she starting to care about her again!

Anyway, once her wounds were healed, she would be leaving.

If she really had any designs on Li Xiao, then she would definitely find every possible way to stay!

If that were really the case.

Then she herself wouldn't be as easy to talk to as she was now!

Cai Xiaotang forcibly suppressed the emotions in her heart, but her gaze inadvertently swept over a bar by the side of the road.

She paused for a moment, suddenly thinking of the bottle of wine that Luo Wanwan had given her.

The one Li Xiao used to like very much... the one that had already been discontinued...

Cai Xiaotang's thoughts suddenly stirred slightly, and she turned the car around and drove in the direction of the bar.

What was that wine called again?

It seemed to be... Psychedelic Sunset?

Cai Xiaotang repeated the name of the wine in her heart several times before entering the bar's entrance.

As soon as she walked in, she instantly attracted the gazes of quite a few people.

In a corner on the second floor—a man looked toward the entrance in a nonchalant manner and silently curled the corners of his lips.

Another man stood beside him and immediately leaned over to whisper in his ear: "Sir, this woman..."
