Chapter 348: Chapter 348: Bought for Daddy
Ye Xinluo stood still, her eyes staring blankly ahead. Suddenly, her hand slipped, and the cup fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
The little guy was startled and burst into tears with a loud "wah," clinging to Ye Xinluo and refusing to let go.
"Mommy..."
The commotion was so loud that Lan Shan came over and saw Jingxi holding Ye Xinluo and crying. Without thinking, she stepped forward, trying to pull the little guy away.
Jingxi wouldn’t let go, so Lan Shan had to comfort him gently, "Jingxi, be good. Your mommy is in a bad mood, it’s not that she’s ignoring you. Don’t cry, okay?"
"Godmother, can you tell me what’s wrong with mommy?" he asked, his eyes brimming with tears.
Hearing this, Lan Shan was at a loss for words... She too wanted to know what exactly had happened...
And where did the bloodstain on her hand come from? She was fine when she got off work yesterday, so how did she end up like this this morning?
Beichen Rui arrived at the doorway of the break room and saw the scene. He didn’t say much. The little guy spotted him right away, ran over, and grabbed his hand, "Daddy, what’s wrong with mommy? Did you make her angry?"
Beichen Rui pressed his lips together and said nothing.
Behind him, Mo Han looked incredulous... This little guy was something else... He could guess this too. If he found out it was really caused by the boss, the boss would probably end up locked in the small dark room again...
Beichen Rui reached out and ruffled his hair, "Your mommy is in a bad mood. Don’t bother her for now; come find her to play later."
The little guy tilted his head, thinking his words made sense, and turned to Lan Shan, "Godmother, take care of mommy for me. I’ll come to play with you later..."
Lan Shan replied, "Okay."
Beichen Rui led the little guy back to the office, sitting him on his lap. The little guy wrapped his arms around his neck and softly asked, "Daddy, why was I at the villa this morning? I thought I fell asleep with mommy last night?"
"I took you over there after you fell asleep." Beichen Rui explained.
The little guy nodded, as if remembering something, "Daddy, did you see mommy last night? Did she give you that watch?"
Hearing this, Beichen Rui was taken aback. After a while, he spoke, "What watch?"
... Could it be the one he accidentally broke last night... But how did Jingxi know?
Before he could straighten out his thoughts, the little guy spoke again, "It’s the one mommy and I bought at the mall last night, for you..."
"For me?" Beichen Rui raised an eyebrow slightly. He stared at the little guy without blinking.
In the photos sent to him, there were only images of Ye Xinluo and Gong Shaoyu. There was no sign of the little guy. Or were they all in cahoots to deceive him?
"Where did you buy it?"
Jingxi thought for a moment before speaking, "I can’t remember the store’s name, it was at the mall in the city center."
"Just you and your mommy?"
The little guy shook his head, "There was also Daddy Shaoyu. We ran into him while having hotpot with mommy." He answered honestly without hiding anything.
The little guy’s words made Beichen Rui suspicious. Last night, Ye Xinluo said it was only her and Jingxi, yet today Jingxi said they encountered Gong Shaoyu while having hotpot.
Who is lying?
But, did they really go to have hotpot last night? And was the watch actually bought by Ye Xinluo for him?
Wanting to find out what was really happening, he asked again, "Jingxi, how many watches did your mommy buy?"
