Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Is It Really the Child Li Beijue is Looking For?
An hour later, the Rolls-Royce stopped at the villa entrance.
The moment Xi Zelie got out of the car,
a small figure charged towards him and flung itself into his arms, “Nuo… Uncle…”
Xi Zelie’s back stiffened, seemingly unaccustomed, then he bent down to lift the little girl who was hugging his thigh, and tenderly asked, “Were you well-behaved at home today?”
Li Yinuo blinked her eyes, tilted her head, and adorably imitated his manner of speaking, “Good~”
The milky voice was so endearing it could melt one’s heart.
A maid approached to join the conversation, “Young Master Lie, Miss has been very well-behaved today. She didn’t fuss or cry when getting the injection, but she cried a little after waking up and discovering you were not here.”
She actually dared to barge into the conversation without being asked by Young Master Lie!
Another maid beside her turned pale with fright.
Xi Zelie didn’t get angry, but simply glanced at her dispassionately, as if he hadn’t heard what she said, and carried Li Yinuo inside.
It wasn’t until his tall and handsome figure disappeared at the villa entrance that the maid who turned pale tugged the previous outspoken one, “You Qing, what were you doing? Have you gone mad? Why intervene when Young Master Lie didn’t ask you? Didn’t the butler teach you the rules?”
The caught young maiden didn’t seem old, her bright eyes were beautiful, and she revealed a brilliant smile, sticking out her tongue, “I forgot.”
“How could you forget that? You Qing, you’re not scheming something, are you?”
The maiden’s cheeks flushed as her little scheme was poked through, she immediately denied, “No, Xiao Mi, don’t talk nonsense.”
Her face not blushing wouldn’t arouse suspicion. The moment her face blushed, the maid called Xiao Mi’s heart went cold, “You Qing, listen to me, don’t fantasize about Young Master Lie. It’s impossible for you.”
“Alright, alright, I know, I haven’t said I was fantasizing about him. Let’s go inside, Miss still needs us to look after her.”
With that, she shook off Xiao Mi’s hand and hurriedly walked inside.
Xiao Mi stomped her foot in frustration and, worried that You Qing would do something foolish, hurriedly followed after her…
Inside the villa, Li Yinuo lay in Xi Zelie’s arms like a tailless koala, from the moment she saw him, her small hand clutched onto his clothes tightly, as if clinging to a lifeline, full of dependency.
Her small mouth never stopped, at times one could discern she was calling ‘Uncle’, other times it sounded like Martian babbling.
The handsome man didn’t find her to be a nuisance, instead, he lowered his head to look at her small face.
Although a one-year-old child’s features are yet to fully develop, one could vaguely discern a hint of her features when she grows older. The little girl in his arms had eyes that were at least fifty percent similar to Chi Enen’s.
That’s why he felt such an affinity for her the first time he saw her.
Furthermore, with Li Beijue looking for a one-year-old little girl, he couldn’t help but wonder… But how could Li Beijue lose a child? Who could snatch a child from his hands?
Xi Zelie furrowed his brows and asked the butler beside him, “Did she take her medication today?”
“The servant gave Miss her medication.”
Xi Zelie reached out to touch the little girl’s forehead, the fever had already subsided.
“Has the result of the examination I requested come out?”
“It has, and the results are the same as what Young Master Lie found out. Miss has a congenital blood disease. It’s unknown why the blood disease suddenly mutated, leading to an increase in the number of white blood cells. The expert is still investigating the specific cause.”
