Chapter 99: Daddy and Mommy Are Finally Going to Make Up

Li Beijue nodded silently and replied in a low voice, "You don't need to tell me; that is exactly what I intend to do."

Upon hearing this, Li Laoyezi sighed again and said nothing more.

The two chatted for a few more moments, and after Li Laoyezi gave Li Beijue some final instructions, he stood up and left.

Li Beijue, however, was uncharacteristically preoccupied.

That woman, Jiang Baobao, had hidden Mobai for so long; she certainly wouldn't let go easily.

But he was Li Beijue; as long as he wanted it, Mobai's custody would definitely return to the Li Family!

As Li Beijue thought this, a flash of ruthlessness crossed his eyes, and he turned to head upstairs.

……

Late at night—

The cold moonlight shone onto the bed through the light-colored window curtains.

The bedroom was completely silent, yet the person on the bed did not seem to be resting peacefully.

Li Beijue's brows were tightly furrowed, a thin layer of sweat on his forehead; he seemed to be dreaming of something.

Then, he suddenly opened his eyes!

What met his gaze was pitch blackness.

He was uncharacteristically dazed for a moment before he reached out to turn on the bedside lamp and sat up, looking somewhat exhausted.

Li Beijue took a deep breath, his eyes filled with an unfathomable gloom.

Why had he dreamed of that woman, Jiang Baobao, again?

He should have forgotten about that night long ago!

Li Beijue kept warning himself in his heart and closed his eyes, yet his mind was filled with lingering, intimate memories... that one and only time he had with Jiang Baobao...

"Damn it..."

Li Beijue cursed in a low voice and rubbed his brow in exhaustion, when suddenly the image of the little girl Jiang Baobao had held in her arms today appeared before his eyes.

That child...

A flash of undisguised anger suddenly appeared on Li Beijue's face, and he threw the pillow aside in a huff.

Jiang Baobao must have planned everything long ago!

After divorcing him, she had wasted no time in marrying someone else!

And she was even raising his own son together with a child born to another man!

As Li Beijue thought this, he began to grit his teeth, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Hmph!

Since she dared to come back, she shouldn't expect to have an easy life anymore!

……

Early the next morning—

Li Beijue had barely slept all night, and first thing in the morning, he went straight to find Zheng Bo, telling him to bring the two little ones downstairs as soon as they woke up.

Zheng Bo agreed to everything, and when he saw that the time was right, he went to the bedroom to call the two little ones out.

Li Beijue waited alone in the living room, his eyes fixed on the direction of the stairs, lost in thought.

Mobai was very hostile toward him right now...

This matter would probably have to rely on Yanbao to help; the two of them seemed to have a very good relationship...

As Li Beijue thought this, he heard footsteps coming from the stairs.

Immediately after, he saw Mobai hopping and skipping down the stairs, while Yanbao followed obediently behind, walking slowly one step at a time.

A hint of a smile flashed in Li Beijue's eyes, and his mood suddenly felt somewhat subtle.

Was this the aura of twins?

Although the two little ones looked the same, their personalities were one active and one quiet, exceptionally complementary.

"Come over and sit." Li Beijue patted the sofa beside him.

Little Mobai, however, did not appreciate the gesture; still angry about yesterday, he just let out a cold snort and turned his head away.

Yanbao was very accommodating, pulling Mobai over to sit down.

He then took the initiative to act as the spokesperson, asking directly, "Daddy, Grandpa Zheng said you have something you want to tell us?"

"Mm." Li Beijue nodded, his gaze slowly falling on Mobai.

He pondered for two seconds before asking, "Yanbao, do you want Mobai to stay here and live with us in the future?"

Upon hearing this, both little ones couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

They had originally thought that Li Beijue would be heavy-handed and just keep them there.

But now, he had instead handed the decision-making power to Yanbao.

Yanbao and Mobai subconsciously exchanged a look, unsure of how to answer for a moment.

Of course he wanted to live with Mobai!

But there was also Mommy and Tiantian!

And even if he said he didn't want to... Daddy wouldn't really let Mobai leave, right?

Yanbao's little face was conflicted.

After thinking for two seconds, he spoke carefully: "Daddy, of course I hope Mobai lives with me, but if Mommy isn't here, neither of us will be happy."

Li Beijue's expression stiffened.

The next second, he heard Mobai retort: "Right! I only want my Mommy! If you're so capable, just lock me up! Otherwise, I will definitely find a chance to sneak out! And never come back!"

Upon hearing this, Li Beijue felt a breath catch in his chest.

This child really dared to say anything!

She really was led astray by Jiang Baobao!

Li Beijue's plan to have a proper talk with the two of them had completely fallen through.

The atmosphere fell into a stalemate.

Yanbao looked at this one, then looked at that one, unable to help feeling a bit anxious inside, and hurriedly tugged gently on Mobai's little hand.

Mobai was slightly stunned, and also came back to his senses.

Oh no!

He had agreed with Yanbao beforehand not to argue with the bad daddy!

The most important thing now was to see Mommy!

Mobai's expression was a bit vexed, and he hurriedly spoke again: "As long as you and Mommy remarry! And bring my Mommy and little sister here, I will stay here!"

"Bring them here?" Li Beijue was practically angered into a laugh.

"Yes!" Mobai nodded heavily.

He then threatened: "Otherwise, I still won't eat, and this time it won't be any use even if Great-Grandfather comes!"

A flash of fire suddenly appeared in the depths of Li Beijue's eyes.

He hated being threatened the most.

Yet, the one before him happened to be his own son, whom he had only just recognized less than two days ago.

Mobai met his gaze directly, with no fear on his face.

Yanbao also hurriedly spoke up: "Daddy, just bring Mommy and little sister back..."

Li Beijue remained silent, only feeling that he had nowhere to vent his anger.

Let that woman Jiang Baobao bring a daughter born to another man and move into Li Mansion?

It was simply a fantasy!

Where would he put his face?

He had just intended to refuse firmly, when in the next second, he saw Mobai jump down from the sofa.

The little guy thought of lines he had learned from the television before, and said with a cold expression: "Forget it, Yanbao, there's nothing to talk about with this kind of person. When I starve to death, remember to collect my corpse!"

"You!" Li Beijue was instantly infuriated by this sentence of his.

The words of reprimand reached his lips, but he swallowed them back down.

The relationship between the two was already strained, and he dared not say anything harsh again.

Yanbao was also given a big fright by Mobai's phrasing, and immediately looked at Li Beijue imploringly.

One of the two children had a tough attitude, while the other was slightly yielding.

Li Beijue pondered for two seconds; unable to think of any good countermeasure, he finally gave in helplessly and took out his mobile phone.

Mobai's expression improved significantly in an instant, and he sat back down on the sofa, looking at Li Beijue with eager eyes.

Seeing the two little guys' expressions instantly turn expectant, Li Beijue felt a tightness in his chest, but he still dialed that familiar number.

Then, after it rang only twice, he heard the call being answered.

"Li Beijue?" Jiang Baobao's surprised voice came from the phone.

"Mm." Li Beijue responded in a low voice and went straight to the point: "Leave the house now; let's talk about the children."

Hearing this, Yanbao and Mobai instantly pursed their little mouths in excitement.

This is great!

Daddy and Mommy are finally considering reconciling!
