Chapter 45: Once again, reverted to that same demeanor.

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The next day, Li Zhenting was in his office handling documents.

Suddenly,

The phone rang.

He picked it up.

“Master, the kindergarten teacher called. She said Young Master Ding Ding’s headache has recurred, and he hasn’t had breakfast yet. I’ve already brought him home.” Butler Luo’s face was filled with concern as he spoke.

Li Zhenting put down his pen and swiftly walked out.

Li Manor.

Ding Ding sat on the sofa, flipping through a comic book, his small fingers turning the pages one by one with intense focus.

“Ding Ding, what’s wrong? Do you have a headache?” Li Zhenting hurried in with concern.

Ding Ding didn’t lift his head, didn’t even spare him a glance, and continued flipping through the comic book.

Li Zhenting placed his hand on Ding Ding’s forehead. Thankfully, it was cool, indicating no fever.

Ding Ding suddenly stood up, shaking off Li Zhenting’s hand, and ran towards his room. With a loud thud, he slammed the door shut.

Li Zhenting was taken aback.

He suddenly felt uneasy and irritated!

Why did this brat revert to his previous demeanor!

Just a few days ago, he had been so cheerful, not only interacting with him but also calling him “daddy.” He even heard Ding Ding’s first-ever, adorable expression of affection: “Daddy, 1 miss you, I love you so much.”

At that time, he was in a great mood, thinking that Ding Ding’s condition had improved.

“Master, when Young Master Ding Ding came back, he sat on the sofa and read comics. Teacher Wang from the kindergarten said he hasn’t had any breakfast yet. It’s nearly eleven now, and he’s famished. What should we do?” Butler Luo was full of worries.

Li Zhenting’s face darkened. He took the bowl of congee from Butler Luo and headed towards the bedroom.

“Ding Ding, open the door.” He stood outside the bedroom door and commanded.

There was no response from inside.

“Bring the master key and open the door.” After shouting three times without any response, Li Zhenting grew impatient and instructed Butler Luo.

Butler Luo promptly brought the master key.

The door opened.

Li Zhenting walked in to take a look.

Ding Ding was holding a tablet, engrossed in something. As soon as Li Zhenting entered, he deftly tapped a few times with his little finger and swiftly entered a gaming interface. Annoyed, he exclaimed, “Daddy, who gave you permission to enter my room without asking?”

Li Zhenting was annoyed. “Kid, I’m your guardian, and I have the right to enter your room. Now tell me, is your headache still bothering you?”

“None of your business.” Ding Ding’s tone was icy. “Why don’t you go ask Lan Lan and her mommy? They know better how to please you.”

With a huff, he turned his head away.

Li Zhenting was taken aback!

What nonsense was this brat spouting? What did he mean by Lan Lan and her mommy? Wasn’t Shen Mei his mommy too!

It seemed that this brat was truly unwell; he couldn’t even distinguish his mommies!

This kind of behavior worried Li Zhenting the most.

He never opened up his heart, keeping himself locked in a tiny world. He couldn’t even break through to it himself. A while ago, he had enlisted a top-notch psychologist for Ding Ding, and he had visibly changed… but now…

“Ding Ding, you weren’t like this a few days ago.” Li Zhenting bent down, speaking patiently. “I thought you were in great spirits those days.”

Just a few days ago, Ding Ding had been lively and cheerful. Even when he argued with Lan Lan, lay on the ground in a tantrum, or even fought with Shen Mei when feeling wronged, he considered it normal. His cute and affectionate behavior melted Li Zhenting’s heart.

After all, that was the genuine nature a child should possess.

But within the span of a few days, he had changed completely!

“I’ve always been like this. It’s not like you only found out today,” Ding Ding rolled his eyes at him and lay down on the bed.

“Kid, get up. Daddy will take you to the hospital to see Doctor Robert.” Li Zhenting scooped a spoonful of the fragrant porridge and urged, “Get up and have some porridge first.”

“No, I don’t have a headache. 1 don’t want to go to the hospital, and 1 don’t want porridge either.”

Ding Ding hated going to the hospital, and in truth, he hadn’t had a headache today. He had been enjoying his time with his birth mommy for the past few days, but being inexplicably taken home by Teacher Wang and hearing about Li Zhenting’s marriage to Shen Mei had made him unhappy, leading to his current mood..
