Chapter 52 Lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot



When Ye Li walked out of the mall, the Maybach was already waiting for her by the roadside.

Fu Yanci stood quietly in front of the passenger door, as if watching several children chasing and playing in the square.

Looking back, Ye Li's eyes flickered slightly, as if she understood.

Fu Yanci must be missing his son!

Little Bao!!!

As if with a snap, the gloomy sky instantly cleared up. Ye Li rushed forward and tugged at Fu Yanci's sleeve, "Do you miss Xiaobao? Let's go to the old house to see him, or we can bring him home."

Having a child at home can always help to shift your focus.

Then things wouldn't be so awkward between her and him, right?

Fu Yanci raised an eyebrow slightly.

When the girl walked out of the mall, she looked gloomy and dejected. But when he glanced back at the candied hawthorns at the intersection and hesitated whether to buy them for her, her mood brightened.

Okay... then.

Fu Yanci nodded, opened the passenger door to let Ye Li get in, and then walked around the front of the car to sit in the driver's seat.

The car drove straight to the Fu family's old house.

Seemingly surprised that Fu Yanci and Ye Li would come, at the dining table, Old Madam Fu smiled as she looked at her grandson, then at the well-behaved and adorable Ye Li, and added half a bowl of rice to her bowl with a smile.

Sure enough, things are different after you get married!

"Grandma, we'll be going back soon. Xiao Bao will come back with us too."

Fu Yanci glanced at Ye Li and then looked up at Old Madam Fu, saying, "Ali will take good care of him!"

!!

I was thinking that since I was going to school and didn't live at home, how could I have time to take care of him?

I also want to say that he doesn't even acknowledge me, okay?

The relationship between a stepmother and her stepson is so sensitive, maybe it's better to avoid it altogether?

Ye Li blinked, looking troubled, when Fu Yanci said gently, "Grandmother, it was Ye Li who suggested coming to see you today and pick up Xiao Bao. Don't worry!"

"I knew it would be like this."

Madam Fu looked at Ye Li with a sense of satisfaction, "Grandmother wouldn't have misjudged you!"

Ye Li: ...

Wouldn't you call this a case of shooting yourself in the foot?

As darkness fell, Fu Yanci went out again, holding Ye Li's hand in one hand and Xiao Bao's hand in the other.

Ye Li's right to sit in the passenger seat was also taken away.

Fu Yanci opened the back door directly, "You sit in the back seat with Xiaobao."

"oh."

Ye Li obediently got into the car.

The car drove through the quiet night, and the carriage was completely silent.

She wanted to talk to Fu Yanci, but she was afraid that the child was perceptive and would think she was deliberately ignoring him.

Ye Li wanted to talk to Xiao Bao, but she didn't know where to start.

The inner turmoil was written all over his face.

Ye Li is the best at taking care of children. In the past, during holidays, the Ye family villa was full of relatives and friends from wealthy families in the capital.

Even teenagers act like they're old. Boys get together to talk about which car is the coolest and which school has the most pretty girls, while girls get together to compare whose manicure is the prettiest and whose boyfriend is the most handsome.

Ye Li played with all the little kids who were four, five, six, or seven years old.

Go fly kites on the lawn of the Ye family villa area.

Throw a tank of small fish into the fountain pool, then roll up your trousers and go catch them.

Or, everyone could simply grab a small shovel and dig up some unparalleled treasure in the grass.

The children had a great time playing. When they came back from their outing, they all surrounded Ye Li, calling her "Sister Pear" repeatedly. When it was time to leave, one grabbed Ye Li's arm, another hugged her leg, and none of them wanted to go.

So much so that adults jokingly call her the "Queen of Kids".

But Ye Li never expected that she, the queen of children, would one day be helpless.

Who can blame them when Xiao Bao is Fu Yan Ci's son?

Those little kids, if they get hurt, they can always fool the adults with a mix of coaxing, lying, and cajoling, and she never has to be questioned or condemned.

If Xiao Bao bumps or bruises himself, he won't even need to complain; Fu Yan Ci's death stare will be enough to give him a hard time.

In the stillness, the Maybach came to a steady stop in front of the villa at Lishan Mansion.
