Chapter 27: Chapter 27 Shen Jiangqing Bumps into Chen Bao!

    Shen Jiangqing was anxiously wondering, where did this damn girl run off to?

    Li Lingyang had asked her to accompany her, and if anything were to happen, it really would be adding trouble!

    In the forest module, Ningning got off the small train, tired from playing. Pointing at a street stall, she said, “Mommy, they’re selling little grilled sausages there, I really want some...”

    Ning Yichu glanced at the surroundings. Although they looked clean on the surface, with so many people in the park, there must be plenty of unseen dust. She usually didn’t let her children eat these kinds of things, and coaxed them, “Street food isn’t very sanitary. Wait a bit, and I’ll buy you some tasty food at the restaurant.”

    Ningning asked without hesitation, “Can we also buy some ice cream?”

    “You just had some yesterday, not today.”

    ...

    Ningning bargained pitifully, “But yesterday I only had a little bit, Mommy...”

    Ning Yichu tapped her daughter’s nose and said, “Even that’s not okay, eating too much ice cream is bad for you, and you’re still a child! But, I can buy you an extra cup of juice. What flavor would you like?”

    “You always replace ice cream with juice!” Ningning pouted grumpily.

    Ning Yichu playfully asked, “So, you don’t want the juice this time either?”

    “I do, I do, I want strawberry juice!” There was no ice cream already, how could she even think about cutting her juice?

    Ning Yichu revealed a triumphant light smile, then looked towards Chen Bao.

    Chen Bao was much easier to deal with. He wasn’t greedy for ice cream, and his tender face already showed signs of an old soul. He raised an eyebrow, “I’ll have watermelon juice.”

    “Okay, you guys wait here. Don’t run around, I’ll be back soon.”

    The restaurant Ning Yichu was headed to wasn’t far ahead, and considering their higher-than-average intelligence and it being broad daylight, she confidently walked away, estimating nothing would happen shortly.

    But unbeknownst to her, shortly after she had left, Ningning and Chen Bao spotted Doudou sprinting their way!

    Doudou, lacking good stamina and endurance, was stumbling and sweating profusely but had a determined look in her eyes. The twins were utterly stunned when they saw her!

    “Little sister, how did you run over here? Where are your daddy and mommy?”

    Still catching her breath, Doudou gestured with her hands, indicating she had slipped away and come here alone, with no one accompanying her.

    Her little short hands clenched even tighter, psyching herself up.

    But before her wish could come true, it was shattered by Shen Jiangqing.

    Shen Jiangqing didn’t dare tell Li Lingyang that she had lost Doudou right under her eyes, so she searched alone. Fortunately, she had followed the trail here and found Doudou.

    But then, she also noticed the little boy next to Doudou.

    She yanked Doudou over, giving Chen Bao a malevolent glare.

    “You little wretch, I was waiting for you in the restroom and you ran off with some wild kid? And you, where are your daddy and mommy? I need to have a stern talk with them, have they not taught you any manners? So young, and already learning to kidnap other children...”

    Chen Bao recognized Shen Jiangqing and glared back at her coldly, his presence not diminished by his shorter height.

    Facing his gaze, Shen Jiangqing felt a twinge of unease. “Why are you staring at me?”

    Chen Bao turned to Doudou and said, “Your mommy’s here, so I’m going to leave.”

    Doudou knew that Chen Bao didn’t want to see her parents; disappointed as she was, she could only accept his departure, her lips pouting enough to hang two buckets.

    But suddenly, Shen Jiangqing grabbed Chen Bao’s arm, “Hold on, what is your relationship with my daughter?”

    “Let go of me.”

    “Bold as brass and still wearing a mask, can’t you be seen by people?” Shen Jiangqing felt something wasn’t right and, while Chen Bao was distracted, quickly pulled off his mask!

    With that action, her entire body stiffened, her eyes wide in disbelief, staring at the downsized version of Li Lingyang in front of her!

    “Your... your face...” Her tongue was all tied up; she couldn’t even speak clearly.

    Chen Bao felt a coolness on his face, realizing his mask had been removed, panic flashed across his face; he couldn’t be exposed!

    The more he struggled to break free, the harder Shen Jiangqing gripped him.

    A bad premonition intensified within her.

    This had to be Li Lingyang’s son, yet he was known for his indifference to women.

    Except... five years ago!

    Thinking about what she had done to Ning Yichu five years ago, Shen Jiangqing’s mind nearly exploded, demanding, “Is your mommy Ning Yichu? Are you her illegitimate son?”
