CHAPTER 927: CHAPTER 71: PICKING UP A SON, GAINING A HUSBAND

Chapter 71

Bai Ji chuckled, sliding from the sofa to the floor, and said to Yan Yuan, "No rush, Dad said he’s treating us to a feast at noon."

"It’s still early now, are you going to wait here until noon?" Yan Yuan was left speechless.

Bai Chenxi had been sitting quietly on the sofa, his gaze suddenly falling on Yan Yuan.

Feeling uneasy under his gaze, Yan Yuan touched her cheek and asked puzzledly, "Is there something on my face?"

Bai Chenxi stood up from his seat, walked over to Yan Yuan, reached out, and ruffled her hair gently, "You take Little Baby out to play, I’ll come find you after I’m done with work."

His sudden tenderness startled Yan Yuan into taking a step back.

What exactly was this guy up to?

Whenever something unusual happens, there must be a Demon involved.

What was Bai Chenxi planning now?

Bai Chenxi’s face turned dark instantly, this guy actually suspected his intentions.

Actually, in Bai Ji’s words, he just wanted to be a little gentle with her.

Yet she reacted so strongly.

"I’ll take Little Baby out now, we’ll handle lunch ourselves. Come home early after work to take care of the child, I have something to do tonight," Yan Yuan said with a smile, pulling Little Baby out of his office.

Bai Chenxi’s face turned livid, his mood worsening.

After eating and drinking their fill, Yan Yuan took Little Baby out of the company, wandered the streets for a while, and then went back.

"Little Baby, does your mommy really not care about you?" Yan Yuan was very curious.

Judging by Little Baby’s age, he should be going to kindergarten.

But he was wandering around during school time, which wasn’t good.

Bai Ji lowered his head, a brief flash of sorrow in his eyes, and said, "Actually, Little Baby’s mother has long passed away."

"What!" Yan Yuan gasped, eyes wide open in shock.

She remembered a few days ago when she called, Little Baby said that dad and mom were exercising in the room?

How could she be dead?

A trace of sadness flashed in Bai Ji’s big eyes, then he looked at Yan Yuan and said, "Actually, mommy hasn’t been around since Little Baby was born. Last time, I lied to you, and also, I’m not Bai Chenxi’s son."

"What?" Yan Yuan felt like she was struck by lightning. This guy had been deceiving her all along, turns out Bai Chenxi was right.

"Dad disappeared, everyone knows in their heart that Dad must be dead." Bai Ji sighed, acting like a little adult.

"I’ve actually come to terms with it. I can grow up without parents."

Yan Yuan reached out to pat Little Baby’s head and sighed, "Sweetie, if you want, I can be your mommy from now on."

"Really?" Bai Ji’s eyes widened immediately, a glimmer of light flashing in them.

Yan Yuan knew this decision was impulsive.

But thinking about leaving her parents, she was also alone in this world, so she couldn’t bear to let Little Baby be sad alone.

"Of course, it’s true!" Yan Yuan bent down, wrapped Little Baby in her arms, and kissed him.

Little Baby immediately flailed his arms and legs joyfully, hugging Yan Yuan’s neck.

He actually liked this pretty and straightforward girl.

So, he happily called her mommy.

By noon, the two were tired from shopping and decided to find a place to eat.

Bai Chenxi tidied up his work and called Yan Yuan.

Yan Yuan was already at the restaurant, since Bai Chenxi was coming and someone was paying, she didn’t mind him coming over.

Yan Yuan ordered a lot of dishes.

When Bai Chenxi arrived, he saw the two heads, one large and one small, huddled together playing on the phone.

Yan Yuan was teaching Little Baby to recite English words.

This sight left Bai Chenxi amazed.

Despite being sensible, Little Baby was very mischievous and never listened to anyone.

Without parents, and not liked by his grandparents, he became more rebellious.

In kindergarten, he drove several teachers crazy with anger.

So, no one in the entire City A wanted to take him in.

The plan was to wait until he reached the first grade, then hire a tutor to teach him well, and let him play in kindergarten.

Kids eventually grow up and learn to behave, be independent, so he just let him be.

Now, seeing this guy obediently studying, he was almost dizzy with disbelief.

"Mommy, did I pronounce it well?" Bai Ji, after reciting the word, didn’t forget to seek praise from Yan Yuan.

Yan Yuan nodded quickly.

She realized Little Baby had a great memory; once taught, he could remember everything.

His mimicry skills were strong too, though he hadn’t attended kindergarten, his intelligence crushed all kids his age.

"Great, you’re amazing!"

Bai Chenxi was completely confused.

When did Little Baby become Yan Yuan’s son?

What exactly happened when he wasn’t around?

"Daddy!" Bai Ji suddenly saw Bai Chenxi’s figure and shouted loudly.

Bai Chenxi snapped back to reality, his heart skipping a beat with excitement.

He called him daddy, and Yan Yuan mommy, does this mean they’re a family now?

Yan Yuan also realized, perhaps unknowingly, she was "sold off" by Little Baby.

"Alright then, what dishes did you order? Today’s my treat." Bai Chenxi quickly changed the topic.

Yan Yuan, however, glared at him, snorted coldly, "It’s not so easy to become Little Baby’s dad. Little Baby, you should call him Uncle."

Otherwise, wouldn’t she be at a loss?

Picking up a son and then a husband, how would she manage in the future?

Little Baby looked troubled, glancing at both Yan Yuan and Bai Chenxi.

Bai Chenxi’s face darkened, "He’s part of the Bai Family, calling me dad isn’t bad at all."

Bai Ji’s eyes filled with tears, extremely aggrieved, "I’m so pitiful. No dad, no mommy, now that I finally have some, they don’t get along."

Yan Yuan and Bai Chenxi heard this, and their faces went dark simultaneously.
