"Qixi is here!" Xiaobao exclaid, suddenly jumping up in excitent, "Dad, let Qixi in quickly!"
He Jingyao pressed the riled little guy back into his seat, looked down, and gave him a stern glance, "Sit nicely for ."
Xiaobao hurriedly placed his hands properly on his knees, afraid that his father wouldn’t let him see his idol.
He Jingyao looked at Uncle Li, "A child from a relative’s house? Is that what she said?"
Uncle Li nodded, "Miss Lu also ntioned that she had previously brought up you, sir, to the young master, which is why he has been pestering you..."
He Jingyao raised an eyebrow, "She has certainly chosen a good candidate."
With Lu Qixi’s reputation out there, she wouldn’t be a fraud, that was one thing, and the little guy liked her imnsely; he would definitely be willing to go with Lu Qixi, that was another thing.
If He Jingyao still didn’t know that Xiaobao was his son, he would most likely have believed it.
"Master, what should we do?" Uncle Li asked.
"Tell her that unless the child’s parents co in person, I will not hand him over to anyone," He Jingyao said indifferently, "Who knows what Miss Lu’s intentions are?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaobao beca extrely angry, "Qixi is a good person! Don’t you malign her!"
After speaking, he struggled to get down, but the mont his little feet touched the ground, he felt himself being lifted into the air.
He Jingyao picked him up and placed him back down, "Sit nicely, did you hear ?"
He began to twist and turn desperately, "I want to see Qixi, I want to see Qixi!"
"If you keep fidgeting, I’ll make sure you never see Qixi again," He Jingyao threatened coldly.
Xiaobao looked up in disbelief, "Dad, you’re so an! I don’t love you anymore!"
He Jingyao ignored him, saying to Uncle Li, "Send her away."
With no other choice, Uncle Li glanced at the little guy and responded, "Yes."
...
Outside the villa, Lu Qixi listened to Uncle Li’s tactful refusal, "I’m truly sorry, Miss Lu. Our sir says that he needs the child’s parents to co in person to take responsibility for the child before he can part with him."
Lu Qixi pulled down her scarf a bit, "Uncle, I’m sowhat of a celebrity. Do you really think I would do sothing like abducting a child? Besides, Xiaobao really likes ; he would certainly be willing to leave with ."
"That’s precisely why our sir has to be extra cautious," Uncle Li said with a smile, yet his tone was firm.
A hint of awkwardness crossed Lu Qixi’s face. She pursed her lips and finally gave up, "Alright then, I’ll contact the child’s parents."
"Thank you, Miss Lu," Uncle Li said as he saw her off with a smile.
Lu Qixi turned back to her car and reluctantly made a phone call.
"Is this Mr. Pei? Sorry, Mr. He Jingyao said that unless the child’s parents co personally, he won’t hand over the child. I can’t do anything about it."
On the other end of the line, Pei Yuanchen smiled faintly, "Alright, I understand. Thank you, we’re even now."
"You’re welco. I wasn’t able to help after all," Lu Qixi said with a smile before hanging up.
...
anwhile, Pei Yuanchen put away his phone and turned to see the surprised face of Gu Zhixi.
"Since when did you know Lu Qixi, and even exchange contact information?" Gu Zhixi asked intently.
"That day you asked to pick up Xiaobao, she found out I was Xiaobao’s uncle," Pei Yuanchen replied indifferently with a glance.
"There’s more to it," Zhixi pressed on, "What do you an by ’we’re even now’?"
