Chapter 1231: Chapter 1231: Brother Xiaobao Is Not Picky About Food
After a while, Shen Chi realized and looked at Xu Chaomu, “Did you teach him that?”
“…” Xu Chaomu looked wronged, “I didn’t teach him to say that.”
Shen Chi then turned his head to look at Xiaobao, who appeared completely calm as if he had not just spoken.
Shen Chi walked over and picked Xiaobao up, pinching his cheek, “Xiaobao, who are you calling a bad person? Don’t want to eat dinner, do you?”
Xiaobao, with his big eyes full of grievance, put his finger to his mouth, looking innocent.
“How co you’re just like your mom, not admitting when you’ve done sothing wrong,” Shen Chi said.
“Shen Chi, can you just get lost?!” Xu Chaomu snapped.
Shen Chi smiled and shoved a piece of pineapple into her mouth, “Eat your dinner and shut up.”
Xu Chaomu was left speechless and just silently ate the pineapple, quieting down.
Dinner was relatively harmonious; they both ate slowly, teasing Xiaobao from ti to ti.
“Shen Chi, let’s… visit Weiwei’s baby tomorrow,” Xu Chaomu said.
“What did you call ?”
“…” Xu Chaomu pouted. She still wasn’t used to it.
However, if he got unhappy, he wouldn’t take her, so she reluctantly said, “Husband, take to see Weiwei’s baby tomorrow.”
“We’ll see how you behave tonight.”
“I’m not sleeping with you tonight. Either you sleep in the guest room, or I will!” Xu Chaomu raised her voice, intimidated by him.
Just then, the butler ca in to serve dishes and heard everything Xu Chaomu said.
“Cough, cough.” The butler lightly coughed, pretending to have heard nothing, put down the dishes, and left.
Xu Chaomu felt so embarrassed; her face turned red, and she silently lowered her head to eat her rice.
Shen Chi couldn’t help but laugh; he enjoyed seeing her like this.
That night, Xu Chaomu still couldn’t escape from soone’s clutches, but knowing she was tired, he didn’t bother her too long and let her sleep.
Xiaobao slept with the butler, a face full of grievance, wondering why mom didn’t want him, thinking if mom was going to sell him…
In the Shen Family’s master bedroom, Shen Chi held Xu Chaomu as they embraced each other in sleep.
The next day, Shen Chi took Xu Chaomu and Xiaobao to see Li Beiting’s newly bought house.
The new house was a bit far from Jinxui Tianxia; it took Shen Chi nearly an hour to drive there.
Xu Chaomu felt a bit nervous. It had been a year since she last saw Weiwei, and she didn’t know how she was doing. They hadn’t been in contact for a year, and she felt sowhat callous.
“Shen Chi, hasn’t Beiting returned to Jinxui Tianxia?” Xu Chaomu asked.
“No, you know Li Uncle’s temper. He’s even more stubborn than you.”
“Why bring into this?”
“Li’s father has laid down the law. He won’t let Li Beiting into the Li Family until he divorces Yu Weiwei,” Shen Chi said.
“What’s the point? Weiwei and Beiting get along so well, and they even have a baby. Besides, Weiwei’s research institute is booming now. I just don’t see what Li’s father can’t co to terms with.”
“It’s all about pride.”
“Knowing it’s impossible.”
“Yeah.”
“Let’s take it slow, they won’t be estranged forever. Li’s father has only one son, Beiting,” Xu Chaomu said.
Shen Chi turned his head, pinched her cheek, and said with a smile, “You always see the big picture.”
“Shen Chi, don’t your lies embarrass you?” Xu Chaomu gave him a look.
In his heart, she was probably the least reasonable person, and here he was, lying.
“No, I’m telling the truth.”
“Eh…” Xiaobao unintentionally made a sound, as if mocking.
“…” Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu both fell silent.
When the car arrived, Li Beiting was waiting for them in the parking lot.
Upon seeing Xu Chaomu, Li Beiting couldn’t help but size her up.
“Chaomu has changed, and she’s beco even more beautiful,” Li Beiting smiled.
“What are you looking at?” Shen Chi gave him a cold glance.
“…” Li Beiting’s mouth twitched.
“Happy New Year! I brought a gift for the little dumpling,” Xu Chaomu said, pulling a paper bag from the trunk.
“Thank you, thank you, it’s always the Fourth Young Mistress who’s more courteous,” Li Beiting teased.
Xu Chaomu handed everything to Shen Chi, then went to carry Xiaobao from the car.
“Where did this cute baby co from? He looks even cuter than the little dumpling,” Li Beiing leaned in.
“He’s called Xiaobao, my baby,” Xu Chaomu smiled.
Li Beiting kept complinting, “He’s really beautiful, just like you, Chaomu. Both beautiful.”
Xiaobao was dressed in a tender yellow little cotton-padded jacket today, looking exceptionally well-behaved, with skin white and tender.
“Li Beiting, do you really plan on letting us stand in the garage?” Shen Chi said in a deep voice.
“Co on, co on, follow upstairs,” Li Beiting said. “You haven’t been to my house yet, have you? It’s a newly bought house; Weiwei likes it a lot.”
Saying this, Li Beiting led them into the elevator.
Inside the elevator, he glanced at Xu Chaomu a couple more tis.
Xu Chaomu had really changed a lot, becoming more mature and intellectual, her long purple coat making her skin look fair and doll-like.
Though the man beside her hadn’t changed at all, still the sa old grumpy temperant.
In the elevator, Xu Chaomu held Xiaobao while Shen Chi wrapped his arms around her waist.
Both Li Beiting and Yu Weiwei knew that Xu Chaomu had adopted a child, but what her relationship with Shen Chi was now, that remained unknown.
As soon as the doorbell rang, Yu Weiwei ca to open the door. She saw Xu Chaomu at first glance!
“Chaomu, Chaomu, Chaomu, you finally ca to see !” Yu Weiwei embraced her. “I thought you were ignoring , we promised to love each other for a lifeti.”
“Didn’t I co? Happy New Year.”
“Happy New Year!” Yu Weiwei was so happy, she hugged Xu Chaomu and refused to let go.
Xiaobao was sandwiched between the two, in complete darkness, thoroughly disgusted.
anwhile, Shen Chi was rather left out, sitting alone on the sofa, quietly sipping the tea Li Beiting had poured for him.
Xu Chaomu and Yu Weiwei chatted nonstop, and Xu Chaomu simply handed Xiaobao to Shen Chi.
Shen Chi reluctantly took him, actually… he didn’t want to hold a baby in front of so many people.
Li Beiting, however, looked rather sympathetic, because he also brought out little dumpling.
“Wow, Weiwei, this is your little dumpling, so cute, so small…” Xu Chaomu quickly stood up and pinched little dumpling.
“He just can’t seem to gain weight,” Yu Weiwei huffed.
“It’s not that he can’t gain weight, he’s just picky,” Li Beiting frowned.
“Picky eater? Ha ha, not obedient, eh?” Xu Chaomu teased. “Your Brother Xiaobao isn’t picky.”
Xiaobao wore a face of resentnt. Not picky? Wasn’t that just another way of calling him a glutton…
“Ah, I’ve been so caught up talking to you, I haven’t held Xiaobao yet,” Yu Weiwei said with a laugh as she stood up.
She took Xiaobao from Shen Chi’s arms: “Xiaobao is really good-looking, those big eyes, those little dimples.”
Xiaobao wore a look of disdain. He wasn’t a product to be scrutinized like this.
