Chapter 90: Li Beijue Says, Don't Meddle in Her Affairs

~8 min read 1,413 words

Li Beijue strode directly into the living room.

His face was full of impatience; he picked up the phone casually and asked directly, "Jiang Baobao, what kind of trick are you trying to play again?"

Jiang Baobao had been waiting for a long time, and as soon as she heard Li Beijue's voice, she hurriedly said, "Li Beijue, I beg you to save my son! He has been kidnapped! Only you can save him now..."

"Your son?" Li Beijue was stunned upon hearing this, his expression somewhat puzzled.

He turned his head to look at Zheng Bo to the side and asked, "Zheng Bo, where is the young master?"

Zheng Bo was also stunned when he heard this. He subconsciously glanced toward the upstairs direction before hurriedly replying, "The young master is upstairs and hasn't come down at all. I just went up to deliver some fruit a moment ago."

Li Beijue paused slightly, his gaze flickering for an instant, and a trace of gloom suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Yanbao was clearly upstairs, so which son was Jiang Baobao talking about?

Could it be that with another man...

Li Beijue immediately thought of a certain possibility; the hand holding the phone tightened abruptly, and a subtle sense of displeasure flashed through his heart.

Jiang Baobao's son with another man!

What did that have to do with him, Li Beijue?

As he thought this, he immediately heard Jiang Baobao pleading on the other end of the line: "Li Beijue, I beg you, as long as you can help me rescue my son, I will agree to anything..."

"I don't have time to meddle in your affairs; there's no need to call again in the future."

Li Beijue interrupted Jiang Baobao without hesitation, and the next second, he hung up directly.

Listening to the busy signal coming from the phone, Jiang Baobao felt a chill in her heart.

Without a second thought, she immediately dialed again!

But this time it rang for a long time, and no one answered the phone again.

Jiang Baobao's heart felt as if someone had poked a big hole in it, turning it into a bottomless abyss.

That bastard Li Beijue!

Is he really going to stand by and watch someone die?

But the person the other party specifically named to see was him!

"Mommy... can't Daddy help?"

Tiantian had been listening from the side for a long time and couldn't help but ask worriedly, her little face full of dissatisfaction and concern.

Daddy is too mean!

How could he not care about whether Brother lives or dies!

Jiang Baobao did not speak; a flash of ruthlessness crossed her eyes, and she made a decision in an instant.

"Baby, Mommy will take you back to find your godmother first." As Jiang Baobao said this, she slammed her foot down on the accelerator.

Forget it!

After dropping Tiantian off, she would go directly to find Li Beijue!

If he refused to help, she would go and beg him in person!

Even if it meant telling him that Mobai was his other son, she absolutely could not let Mobai suffer any harm!

Li Mansion—

Yanbao was resting alone in his room.

Suddenly hearing his computer make a sound, he immediately jumped off the bed.

Mobai had left a QQ number on a note last time so they could contact each other.

After adding him as a friend, Yanbao was afraid he wouldn't reply to messages in time, so whenever he was at home, he always kept the computer on.

Hearing the sound, his expression was somewhat pleasantly surprised, and he hurriedly sat down at the chair as fast as he could.

Then he saw that, sure enough, a small icon was flashing non-stop in the bottom right corner.

"It must be a message from Mobai!"

The little guy was full of excitement, but after opening the chat box and taking just one glance, his expression instantly froze.

It read in the chat box—

【Brother Yan! It's me, Tiantian! Brother Mobai was taken away by bad guys! The bad guys seem to have mistaken him for you and are asking Mommy for lots and lots of money! Daddy said he wouldn't help Mommy! You have to think of a way!】

Yanbao stared blankly at the words on the computer, his little heart feeling panicked for a moment.

How could Mobai have been taken away by bad guys?

And been mistaken for himself?

Didn't that mean he was the one who caused this?

Yanbao felt incomparably guilty; without a second thought, he jumped straight off the chair!

He then ran all the way to the study and, without even knocking on the door, ran straight inside.

"Daddy! I have something I need your help with!!!"

Yanbao shouted as soon as he entered the room, his little face full of anxiety.

Li Beijue was already in a bad mood because of the matter with Jiang Baobao, and upon hearing this, he couldn't help but frown immediately.

"Yanbao, how did I teach you? Why didn't you knock before entering?"

"I'm sorry, Daddy, I... I have something I want to ask for your help with!"

Yanbao couldn't care about much else; he looked at Li Beijue with wide, pleading eyes, his little face full of supplication.

Li Beijue was stunned upon hearing this, his expression somewhat puzzled.

Yanbao had grown up, and he had never begged him for anything so anxiously before...

Li Beijue pondered for a few seconds, nodded gently, softened his tone, and said, "What is it? Tell me. Whatever Daddy can do for you, I certainly will!"

Yanbao immediately spoke without hesitation: "Daddy! Mobai has been kidnapped! Mommy must be very worried right now! Please, save him!"

In his urgency, he blurted out Mobai's name directly.

Upon hearing this, Li Beijue's expression suddenly turned stern.

Mobai? Kidnapping?

Li Beijue suddenly recalled Jiang Baobao's phone call just now, and his chest felt tight in an instant.

Yanbao was actually here to talk about this matter too!

He even knew what that child's name was!

Had Jiang Baobao already let the two of them meet?

Anger surged in Li Beijue's eyes, and he let out a cold, irritable snort.

That woman's scheme was truly disgusting!

She actually wanted him to save a son she had with someone else!

She even dared to tell Yanbao to come and plead with him!

Don't even think about it!

The more Li Beijue thought about it, the angrier he became, and the way he looked at the little fellow in front of him was no longer as gentle as before.

"Yanbao, you don't need to get involved in adult matters. That child has nothing to do with the Li Family, and there is no need for Daddy to intervene. Go back to your room."

Li Beijue summoned all his patience to deal with Yanbao.

The expression on Yanbao's face instantly became even more anxious.

How could Mobai have nothing to do with the Li Family!

He was also Daddy's son!

But... Daddy couldn't know about this yet...

"Daddy, Mobai is a very good friend of mine, please go save..."

"I already said, he has nothing to do with the Li Family!"

Hearing him dare to continue begging, Li Beijue lost control of his temper and roared at Yanbao.

Yanbao was stunned by his roar, and a look of bewilderment appeared on his little face for a moment.

Immediately after, it turned into icy coldness, looking exactly like the Li Beijue who was currently losing his temper, as if carved from the same mold.

"Daddy, is it because Mobai is Mommy's child that you won't go save him?" Yanbao asked coldly, his eyes devoid of any emotion as he looked at Li Beijue.

Li Beijue was stunned by his question and didn't speak for a long time.

Then he heard Yanbao continue to ask: "If Mobai weren't Mommy's child, would Daddy be willing to save him?"

Li Beijue's heart tightened, and for a moment, he was unable to answer.

He never expected that Yanbao would ask such a sharp question, and one that hit the nail on the head.

Li Beijue took a deep breath, intending to find a way to persuade Yanbao to go back.

He looked up into Yanbao's big eyes, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Why did Yanbao have such a look in his eyes?

In his eyes... was hatred for him?!
