My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband

Chapter 454: Awesome, my son! 1

"Mom, Dad says you don’t lack a husband," Little Xiangru’s crisp voice came from the big bed. The little one lay on the pillow snickering, his plump, short little legs raised and swinging back and forth, while his fingers kept writing homework on the mobile phone’s holographic virtual screen. Skilled at multitasking, he hummed repeatedly, "Mom doesn’t lack a husband."

Si Mingjing’s ears warmed with laughter. "This child..."

"Well said," Mo Yinhe praised his son.

After drying her hair, Si Mingjing walked to the bedside, picked up Little Xiangru, and watched him do his homework, only to discover that he was actually working on mathematical Olympiad problems for fifth and sixth graders.

Si Mingjing watched for a while, surprised and amazed. "Little Xiangru, you can do all these?"

"Yeah! Mom, I’m super smart, Wow!"

Little Xiangru was exceptionally gifted, with off-the-charts intelligence. Despite being only five years old, he could solve mathematical Olympiad problems for fifth and sixth graders with a 90% accuracy rate.

"Impressive, my son!"

All parents hope to have prodigious children to show off as their pride and joy!

Si Mingjing was no exception; she felt that Little Xiangru was incredible, her face brimming with pride.

Mo Yinhe put the hairdryer back in the bathroom, then made two cups of milk—one for his wife and one for his son.

Afterward, he sat on the bedside, watching his son solve Olympiad problems alongside Si Mingjing.

"Excellent, truly my offspring."

Mo Yinhe was patting himself on the back, certain that good genes were at play. His son, Mo Yinhe’s son, would be none other than brilliant.

Little Shurong had a great talent in spaceflight, Little Xiangru was gifted in mathematics, and as for Xiaobai, although he didn’t have a particular specialty, his mind was exceptionally sharp, and he had a kindly heart, never once disappointing him.

Si Mingjing asked her child, "Xiangru, you spend most of your time as Little Liyu. When do you have time to finish your homework?"

"Mom! Even as Little Liyu, I can finish my homework. I have a space where, in my Little Liyu state, I can study with full concentration. Mom, I won’t hold you and Dad back. I will definitely be the smartest kid!"

Little Xiangru had his own space, within which was the world’s most complete library.

Lu Jinyi had bought him many books, all of which were crammed into his space.

After becoming Little Liyu, since he couldn’t play around like other kids, he stayed in his space to study hard. This allowed him to concentrate better and put in more effort.

"A space?" Si Mingjing had never heard of such a thing.

Little Xiangru offered eagerly, "Mom, do you want to come to my space and read?"

Si Mingjing smiled. "No thanks. What kind of books do you have?"

Little Xiangru stretched his small hand into the space, randomly pulling out a few books, all related to medicine.

"Mom, take a look."

Si Mingjing flipped through a couple of books in disbelief and told Mo Yinhe, "I’ve only heard my master mention these books; he said they had been lost a long time ago. Could it be that in Little Xiangru’s space, grabbing a few random books would turn out to be rare, lost tomes?"

Little Xiangru continued to show off, "Mom, there are so many books in my space. If there’s ever a book you can’t find, just tell me, and I’ll get it for you."

Si Mingjing listed a few titles, and to her surprise, Little Xiangru promptly retrieved them from his space and tossed them onto the bed.

Si Mingjing picked them up and looked through them, unable to put them down.

"This child, is your space like a book museum?"

"Mom, I’m going to continue doing my homework now."

Little Xiangru had boasted enough and continued struggling with a tough math problem on the virtual screen.

If he couldn’t solve it tonight, he wouldn’t go to sleep, HMPH!

Mo Yinhe watched as the mother and son, one reading and the other doing homework, were illuminated by the warm light. The scene was extraordinarily peaceful. He, too, turned on his phone’s virtual screen and began looking through documents on the bed. Each family member was occupied with their own tasks, yet together they presented a remarkably harmonious picture.

After about half an hour, the quiet courtyard suddenly became noisy.

Someone was trying to barge in but was stopped by Fengjue.

The sound of their argument disturbed the harmonious life of the family on the third floor.

Mo Yinhe turned off the holographic virtual screen, stepped out of bed, and said, "I’ll go check it out."

Si Mingjing closed the medical book. "I’ll come with you."

As the two reached the courtyard door, they heard Fengjue report in a deep voice, "My lord, I’ve told them that you and the Crown Princess Consort have already retired for the night, but they insist on coming in. They claim there’s something unclean in the house and want to search for it."

Si Mingjing and Mo Yinhe exchanged a glance, a cunning light flickering in their eyes, but they both feigned ignorance. "What unclean thing?"

Fengjue deliberately said, "I’m not sure. The courtyard is cleaned spotlessly every day. I don’t know where any dirt could be."

Si Mingjing gestured for Fengjue to step aside. Then, draped in her nightgown, she walked up to the butler and asked, "Butler, what’s going on?"

The butler said, "Miss, the old lady suddenly developed a high fever tonight. Xianglan said that while cleaning today, she seemed to have seen something unclean in Miss Ye’s room. She was so scared at the time that she dared not report it. Now that the old lady is seriously ill, she felt she had no choice but to speak up, afraid that the senior mistress has been bewitched. Therefore, Miss Shurong asked me to bring people over to search and see what the unclean thing is."

Si Mingjing’s voice sharpened. "Who is Xianglan?"

"Xianglan is the maid responsible for cleaning your courtyard," he replied.

"Oh, where is she?"

At that moment, a young maid stepped out from behind the butler and said in a low voice, "Miss, I... I am she."

Si Mingjing narrowed her eyes, looking at the young maid.

Her light gaze pressed down on Xianglan like a heavy mountain, full of intimidation.

Xianglan’s heart shrank sharply, and she subconsciously took a step back.

Si Mingjing watched her, scoffing, "What unclean thing did you see?"

Xianglan hid behind the butler and stammered, "It’s... it’s just something unclean. I was so scared; I didn’t see it very clearly."

The butler also said, "Miss, Xianglan is timid. Miss Shurong asked me to lead people here to investigate, but Guard Feng wouldn’t let us enter."

"Si Yuan is a distinguished guest I invited, not to mention a legitimate descendant of the Bai Family and a girl Crown Prince Lisao likes. It’s already inappropriate for so many men to want to barge into her bedroom in the middle of the night to conduct a search. Now you’re telling me Fengjue was wrong to stop you? If Crown Prince Lisao finds out that a group of people tried to search the bedroom of the girl he likes in the middle of the night, what do you think his mood will be?"

Upon hearing Si Mingjing’s words, the butler indeed felt great dread.

Would he still have a life to live if Crown Prince Lisao got angry?

Crown Prince Lisao had openly stated on Bowei that the people should not hold him back.

Yet now, the senior mistress has a persistent high fever...

"Miss, why don’t we have Miss Ye get up first, then I will lead the people in to search?"

"There’s no need. What do you want to search for?" At that moment, Ye Siyuan, wearing a nightgown, walked out of the room and over to Mo Yinhe and Si Mingjing, saying, "A clear conscience fears no accusation. Whatever you want to search for, go ahead."
