Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Chenchen, it’s already so late. Why haven’t you gone home?” Li Qianming stroked the little fellow’s furry little head.
“Daddy, why did you come back so late? I was getting anxious from waiting!” The little fella pouted with a face full of unwillingness.
“What’s the matter? Is there something you need Daddy’s help with?” Li Qianming bent down and lightly scratched Chenchen’s little nose. fre(e)webnovel
“Hmph, you don’t even know that my mommy was bullied by bad people while filming! Daddy, you have to stand up for mommy, or else you’ll let her down for treating me so well!” The little fella pouted and complained to his daddy in all seriousness.
Li Qianming’s lips curled up slightly. He bent down helplessly and picked up the little fellow. “Chenchen, aren’t you already protecting your mommy?”
The little guy rubbed his head, looking confused.?How did Daddy know about finding someone to teach those bad guys a lesson? freew ebnov el
“Don’t worry, I’ve already sent someone to the production team. I’ve also caught a few reporters who were secretly taking photos at the scene and warned them to delete all the content and not post it online.”
That’s right!?Chenchen was shocked. Daddy was more thoughtful. If what happened at the film site had trended, then Mommy’s good image would be ruined. The little fella hugged his daddy’s neck tightly and kissed his daddy’s cheek. “Daddy is the best! He can predict the future and protect mommy with me! Yay!”
Looking at his son’s happy smile, Li Qianming’s lips curled up. Li Qianming’s expression instantly turned cold at the thought that the Chi family, who had been warned by him, still dared to cause trouble at the film site. It seemed like they did not take his previous words to heart.
“Daddy, daddy, what are you thinking about? Shall we call now and ask mommy out for dinner? Mommy must be feeling uncomfortable right now. Let’s have dinner together. We can comfort her, okay?” The little guy chattered as he rubbed his furry head back and forth against his daddy’s neck.
Li Qianming knew that he could not persuade the little fellow, so he could only call Chi Yaoxi and let the little fellow tell her himself.
In the hotel, Chi Yaoxi had just changed into a set of casual clothes when she heard her phone ring. When she saw that it was the little guy calling, a smile immediately spread across her face.
A childish voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “Mommy, if you are free tonight, let’s have dinner together. I haven’t seen you for a day and Chenchen misses Mommy.”
Chi Yaoxi’s heart warmed. The little darling was really sensible. But…
There was no reply for a while. The little fella’s soft voice came through the phone again. “Mommy, hurry up and agree. Daddy and I are going to pick you up. If I can’t eat with Mommy and see you, I won’t be able to sleep at night.”
Chi Yaoxi agreed. She quickly changed into a purple dress and looked in the mirror to touch up her makeup. Feeling better, she picked up her handbag and went downstairs.
After a while, a black, domineering Rolls-Royce car stopped in front of Chi Yaoxi. The little guy opened the window in the backseat and waved his little hand.
“Mommy, get in the car.”
Chi Yaoxi saw Li Qianming sitting upright in the driver’s seat, still wearing a stern, ice-cold face.
However, it should be very expensive to rent such an expensive car once, right? If he didn’t have any financial conditions, why did he have to make a big deal out of it? She really couldn’t understand this man.
Chi Yaoxi glanced at the man driving the car. His handsome and well-defined facial features, even though he was just sitting there, revealed an extraordinary and noble posture.
Deep in thought, she opened the car door and sat in the back seat. Before she could sit properly, the little fellow climbed up and hugged Chi Yaoxi’s arm. His chubby little face was tightly pressed against her body. “Mommy, you’ve worked hard. Let’s go eat some good food.”
Chi Yaoxi reached out and pulled the little fellow into her arms. Her heart was filled with joy and satisfaction, and all her unhappiness was thrown to the back of her mind.
The three of them arrived at a restaurant. The interior of the restaurant was well-decorated and exquisitely furnished. It was obviously a private restaurant.
The little fella came behind Daddy and reminded him softly, “Daddy, a man has to be gentlemanly. You have to take the initiative to help Mommy pull out the chair.”
Li Qianming turned his head and narrowed his eyes. He glanced at the little fella, his eyes carrying a bit of unwillingness, but he still walked in front, helping Chi Yaoxi pull out the chair.
Chi Yaoxi looked at the man in front of her. He was wearing a light gray checkered suit, a pure white shirt, and a matching tie. His figure was slender and tall, and he was impeccable. From the side, his facial features were well-defined. His face was so handsome that one could not take their eyes off him.
Chi Yaoxi’s heart began to race again.
The waiter served the dishes very quickly. Indeed, they were all specialty dishes that were placed on exquisite white porcelain plates.
When the little fella saw his daddy and mommy sitting there and not saying anything. He took the initiative to raise a glass filled with fruit juice. “Come, let’s have a toast. I wish Daddy and Mommy a happy life at work.”
Chi Yaoxi raised her wine glass and smiled as she nodded at the little fellow. “Thank you, Chenchen. I also wish for Chenchen happiness and health, and to grow up quickly.” After Chi Yaoxi finished speaking, she glanced at the man opposite her. The man was also looking at her. Although his expression was still serious and his gaze deep, it was really unbearable to look at him at such a close distance.
Chi Yaoxi was not immune to handsome men. She quickly lowered her head and sat upright. The meal had not started yet, so she should not fall for it.
“Daddy, hurry up and help Mommy get some food. It’s Mommy’s first time here.” The little guy winked at Daddy, reminding him of his gentlemanly manners.
Li Qianming had no choice but to cooperate. He extended his slender and delicate fingers and skillfully picked up a piece of lamb chop with his chopsticks and placed it in Chi Yaoxi’s bowl. “Try the lamb chops. They taste good.”
Such fair and delicate hands were even more delicate than a woman’s. Chi Yaoxi could feel the man looking at her from the corner of her eyes. She did not dare to look up and only whispered, “Thank you.” However, her face turned red.
Under the little guy’s suggestion, the two of them drank a few glasses consecutively. Chi Yaoxi felt her head start to feel a little dizzy, and she started to talk more.
Seeing that his mommy had drunk a little too much, the little fella quickly found an excuse and left with his assistant, Uncle Ling Yue. He was a smart child who wanted to create opportunities for his daddy and mommy. He would never be a third wheel.
“Hey, Mr. Li, you, you look good in this suit. You look so sunny and handsome. Don’t wear black in the future. You always had a black face, understand?” Chi Yaoxi drank until she was dizzy and her eyes were a little dazed. She kept staring at the man and after a long time, she pointed at Li Qianming’s suit and commented.
The man narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman coldly. This woman must have drunk too much.
Chi Yaoxi picked up the wine glass again. Just as she was about to down the glass, the man reached out and grabbed her wrist. “Stop drinking. You’ve already drunk too much.”
“No, no. It’s still a long way off. You—I’m sure you don’t know my alcohol tolerance. I’m fine. Let go. I need another toast.” Chi Yaoxi’s wrist was grabbed and couldn’t move. She played a little trick and immediately switched to her other hand. She snatched the wine glass and drank it in one gulp. After drinking it, she laughed loudly. “Haha, I’m the smart one.You lost, you have to agree to one condition.”
The man frowned, unable to guess what this woman was going to do.
The woman stood up shakily and walked to the man’s side. She pulled his arm and looked at him with misty eyes. “You can’t leave tonight. You have to stay with me.”
Li Qianming’s expression was cold and dark. He frowned impatiently and shot a glance at the woman before standing up and saying sternly, “You’re drunk. I’ll send you back to the hotel now.”
“No, I don’t want it. I just want you to accompany me. Don’t worry, I’ll pay you.”
Pay? Who did this woman think he was? A drunk woman was really hard to deal with.?Li Qianming was speechless. Looking at the woman who couldn’t stand steadily and was leaning on him, Li Qianming simply reached out and carried her out.
