The little boy nodded with a smile, looking very good when he smiled. âYes! Eat it!â
âWhatâs your name?â Li Nanheng did not immediately hand the cake to him but raised his eyebrows.
Feng Ling frowned. âLi Nanheng, donât look so cold. This child looks so small. He might not understand your question.â
âHe is two years old. He understands,â Li Nanheng said lightly. âHe can understand the simplest expression.â
How did he know that this child was two years old?
Feng Ling didnât speak. She held the child and looked at his face. âCan you understand what Uncle is asking you?â
The little boy looked at the cake, then at Li Nanheng, and suddenly grinned, revealing a few white, cute teeth. âMomo.â
âMomo?â Feng Ling immediately touched his head. âSuch a cute and obedient child. Where are your parents?â
Although she had some doubts about the figure who had suddenly left, she didnât dare to believe it.
Wen Leqing and Doctor Wen...
It had been a long time since they last met. It was impossible for a child to suddenly appear. What exactly happened between them two or three years ago?
âDid your mother bring you here?â Li Nanheng asked again.
The little boy had already answered his own name. Seeing that he still refused to give her the cake, he pursed his lips and turned to Feng Ling with a pleading look. âSister... Uncle wonât give me the cake...â
Li Nanhengâs expression instantly darkened. âIâm your uncle? Sheâs your sister?â
Feng Ling reached out and snatched the cake from his hand. âWhy are you making things difficult for a child? Youâre already thirty years old. If he doesnât call you uncle, does he have to call you brother? If he really calls you brother, do you have the nerve to answer?â
Li Nanheng :â...â
Feng Ling handed the cake to the little boy and placed him on a small sofa for him to eat in peace. At this moment, the cell phone in her pocket vibrated. She took out her cell phone and saw that it was a message from Wen Leqing, whom she had not seen for a long time.
Wen Leqing actually knew the new number she was using?
[Feng Ling, I have an urgent matter to attend to and have to leave the United States. Please help me take care of my child for a while. His name is Wen Shumo, and he is my son. Now he is two years and a month old. He eats everything and is not picky with food. I had no choice but to take the opportunity to bring him here when I learned that you would come here tonight. However, it is not convenient for me to show up. I will explain to you when I come back. Sorry for the trouble.]
Looking at this message, Feng Ling turned to look at the little guy who had covered his face with cream in the blink of an eye.
Was it really Wen Leqingâs child?
Was he really two years old?
She put down the phone and looked at Li Nanheng who was also sizing up the child. âYou know about Wen Leqing?â
âI donât know much, but the Wen family and the Li family have been very close, and Iâve heard about the Wen siblings in recent years,â Li Nanheng said lightly. âAfter Wen Leqing got pregnant, she hid and gave birth to the child, but something seemed to have happened to the Wen family, so she kept avoiding Wen Linhan. She was also the one who took care of the child. Today, she suddenly sent the child here and specially handed it to you, but she didnât show up. There must be something she couldnât handle.â
âSo this child... is really Wen Leqing and Doctor Wenâs...?â
âYou canât think of a third person with such a face. Didnât you already have an answer?â Li Nanheng raised his eyebrows. âBut Wen Leqing probably has no other choice. Otherwise, why would she give the child to you?â
Feng Ling glanced at him strangely. âWhat do you mean? Otherwise, why would she give the child to me?â
âYou know how to take care of children?â
âWhy not? If it doesnât work, send him to the Feng family. Since she asked me, I canât send him to Doctor Wen,â Feng Ling said and looked at the little guy who was covered in cream.
Although she said it casually, in fact, she had never taken care of a child, nor had she interacted with a child. Feng Ling really didnât know what to do.
But the children had already been sent over. She couldnât possibly push them out.
âItâs not a good idea to send him back to the Feng family. Wen Linhan can easily find his whereabouts.â
âWhat exactly happened? Didnât Wen Leqing always like her brother? Now that she has a child, why is she avoiding him so desperately? She doesnât even allow him to see the child?â
Li Nanheng only raised his eyebrows and looked at her indifferently. âI donât have a fixed residence in Washington, but I can temporarily arrange for the child to stay in the hotel where the Li Corporation is investing. Without my permission, no one is allowed to approach. You can come and accompany him to take care of him at any time. I can also ensure that his whereabouts are hidden.â
Feng Ling sat down on the sofa and touched Little Momoâs head. Hearing Li Nanhengâs words, she didnât look up at him but said calmly, âYour idea is not bad. Even I have to live in your place.â
âArenât I trying to help you?â Li Nanheng said shamelessly.
Feng Ling could not be bothered with him. She asked for two wet napkins from a passing waiter and wiped the cream off of Little Momoâs body and mouth.
This child didnât cry even when he couldnât find his mother. He even called her sister sweetly. Wen Leqing must have told him before he came that he should be obedient.
Since Wen Leqing didnât want Wen Linhan to find this child, she didnât have any special rights in New York or Los Angeles. Li Nanheng was indeed the best place to go.
âYou can go out to work during the day. When youâre busy, I can arrange for the bodyguards and the servants to take care of him. My men are all tight-lipped.â Li Nanhengâs eyes darkened. There was no one else or any children in his eyes except for Feng Ling, who was sitting on the sofa with some hesitation in her eyes.
It was time to close the net.
If he didnât pull the net back, she would really be used to escaping and he wouldnât be able to catch her.
âYou promised to give him a room, not your own,â Feng Ling said slowly. âThat way, itâll be easier for me to go over and accompany him.â
âWhat will happen if you go to my room?â Li Nanheng moved his brows unhappily. âI helped you take this child in, and youâre still negotiating conditions with me? Do you really think I canât do anything to you just because I give in to you time and time again?â
âYour lifestyle isnât healthy. It will affect the children.â Feng Ling casually found an excuse.
Li Nanheng glanced at her coldly. âHow am I not healthy?â
âIf you smoke, it will affect his respiratory system.â Feng Ling continued to find excuses.
âHa.â Li Nanheng sneered. âGive birth to one for me right now. I promise to quit smoking immediately.â
