Seeing Uncle in such a helpless state was truly adorable.
Chu Liyuan, out of pique, had turned to the other side of the bed, a situation that had never occurred since marrying Jian Jian.
But not long after Jian Dan lay down, Chu Liyuan unceremoniously turned back, pulling Jian Dan into his embrace.
âUncle, werenât you mad at me?â Jian Dan feigned anger as she spoke.
âWhen was I ever mad at you? Iâm mad at himâ¦â He glanced at the little guy nestled in Jian Jianâs arms with his eyes.
âUncle, I feel like youâre probably the only person in the whole world who would be jealous of his own son!â
âSo what if I am? You are mine, only mine!â he declared, tightening his arms around her.
Feeling the hostility from his father, Qian Lele, who was in Jian Danâs arms, deliberately snuggled closer, as if claiming his territory and provoking a challenge.
âYou little rascal, getting cocky, are you?â Chu Liyuan said, slightly annoyed by Qian Leleâs actions.
âMommy~ Mommy~â Faced with his fatherâs displeasure, Qian Lele smartly sought his motherâs protection.
âUncle~â
Chu Liyuan slowly closed his eyes, trying to calm his emotions.
Coming back home, to think there was someone to vie with her for his wife! Whereâs the justice in that?
The most frustrating part was that there was nothing he could do about it!
It was his first time experiencing this sense of powerlessness!
Because of Shen Jueâs incident, the training camp had been put on hold, and Jian Dan had been resting at home these past few days.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
What should have been a good thing was utterly ruined!
Because Jian Jian had been at home these few days, every night, Qian Lele would cling to their room to sleep, leaving Chu Liyuan with no chance to be alone with Jian Dan. He felt even worse off than when Jian Jian was at the training camp.
Chu Liyuan was brooding alone in his office when the door suddenly burst open. His mood instantly improved because the only person bold enough to enter his office without knocking, other than Jian Jian, was no one else.
Just as Chu Liyuan happily stood up, ready to go over, he was astonished to find that the person entering was not Jian Jian, but Chu Liyuan.
His mood plummeted like a rollercoaster dive to rock bottom.
Just as he was about to explode, he noticed Chu Liyuanâs anxious expression, which stopped him from lashing out. âWhatâs the matter?â
âMr. Chu, Xia Mengjiao is about to give birth, she is at the hospital now! I need to rush over immediately!â
âIsnât she due next month?â Chu Liyuan had requested his leave well in advance.
âIt seems to be a premature birth!â
âThen you should hurry over!â Chu Liyuan didnât ask any more under such circumstances.
âYes, Mr. Chu!â With that said, he rushed out of Chu Liyuanâs office.
After watching Chu Liyuan depart, Chu Liyuan was about to resume working when, before his backside could even touch the chair, he suddenly stood up again as an idea struck him, a smile appearing on his lips.
Picking up the suit jacket on his chair, he too left the officeâ¦
When Chu Liyuan arrived at the underground parking garage, Chu Liyuan had already left.
(No way, his own daughter-in-law, of course, canât be delayed for even a second!)
Subsequently, Chu Liyuan got into his car, ready to follow, and because he wasnât sure which hospital it was, he called Chu Liyuan en route to ask for directions.
Chu Liyuanâs mind was completely preoccupied with his wife, so he thoughtlessly gave Chu Liyuan the information.
Once Chu Liyuan had the location, he immediately drove off to the hospitalâ¦
