Chapter 1802: Chapter 1803: Qin Jun Is So Miserable
If she dies, he and Little Baby would be left to depend on each other, and he is a workaholic who works like there’s no tomorrow.
He rarely takes care of the family and doesn’t understand the thoughts of children; he only knows how to provide Little Baby with the best material conditions.
Under his upbringing, Little Baby is likely to grow wild and rebellious.
Ordinary rebellious people might get into fights, bully classmates, smoke secretly with street punks, skip class to play games... It seems like there’s nothing else beyond these childish behaviors.
But Little Baby is different!
Little Baby is too smart. He’s shown extraordinary intelligence since he was young; by age five, he could help manage fan groups, boost rankings, and hack computers.
With such a mind, he’d definitely not engage in low-level rebellion as he grows. What if he turns to crime?
"They merely want money. Money is the last thing I’m lacking." Li Shengxiao listened to her fall silent and put down the spoon, comforting her in a deep voice.
Rong Yan took a deep breath and snapped back to reality, shaking her head, realizing she was foolish since he couldn’t see her shake her head over the phone.
She pursed her lips and restrained the anxiety in her eyes, "I’m afraid they want more than money. What if you give them money and they still won’t let me go?"
"They want money, so you give them money. They’ll keep using me to ask you for money until you no longer want to give it."
The day that happens, she would be killed.
The result would be the same.
Li Shengxiao’s throat rolled, and he let out a low chuckle, "Silly girl, what are you thinking?"
The way he called her a silly girl was so affectionate.
Rong Yan’s heart skipped a beat, inexplicably stammering, "I-I didn’t think about anything."
Luckily, Li Shengxiao didn’t press further, and the voice from the phone was steady and powerful, "Don’t worry, what you’re worried about won’t happen. I won’t let it happen! Have you had breakfast?"
Rong Yan glanced outside and answered softly, "I have to wait a bit longer; I’m not hungry yet. You, have your stomach felt better after eating something?"
"Yes." Eating didn’t make him feel particularly well, but talking to her on the phone lifted his spirits, "I feel much better."
Rong Yan didn’t think much, breathing a sigh of relief, "That’s good then."
Cradling her phone, watching the signal fluctuate from full bars to just one or two, she hurriedly said, "Li Shengxiao, I’m still at sea, and my phone signal is unstable. I don’t know when it might just cut off. If it drops later, don’t worry, okay? I’ll arrive at the British dock in about three hours, and once I’m there, I’ll find a phone to contact you again. Don’t worry about me, and also, please tell Mrs. Lin and Little Baby not to worry either.
If all goes well, I can return today. If there are no tickets, it might be tomorrow, but I’ll definitely be back by tomorrow at the latest. Sorry to trouble you with Mrs. Lin and Little Baby. If you have time, help me explain to Mrs. Jiang and say..."
How can she ensure others aren’t worried while explaining her absence?
Rong Yan bit her lip, "Just tell her I suddenly had work and went on a two-day business trip to the neighboring city, and I’ll go see her as soon as I finish my tasks!"
Li Shengxiao’s lips unconsciously curled upwards; it’s the same excuse he used before, she just picked it up.
"No need to worry about Jiang Chenyue, Qin Jun is with her, and he knows how to keep her from worrying."
