Chapter 591: Rong Yan was forced to confess
Li Duidui wouldn’t eat it up, his gaze didn’t change one bit, “It’s because mom doesn’t trust Duidui… Mom must be hiding something from me, not telling me.”
His grape-like big eyes showed a hurt expression, he pouted his little mouth, and looked at Rong Yan, “If mom doesn’t talk, I’ll be more worried.”
“I promise I won’t get angry, won’t scold mom. Can’t you tell me?” His little milk voice was extremely aggrieved.
Originally Rong Yan wanted to act pitiful to him so he wouldn’t keep asking, but he pulled this move on her first, and to her chagrin, she found that she had no resistance to Little Baby’s tactics at all!
However, having no resistance didn’t mean that she could risk telling him about tonight’s adventure, because tonight was an accident, and she hadn’t anticipated any danger at the time. She had thought to herself before that if there was danger, she would definitely drop everything and just inform the Rong Family.
Who would have thought she’d bump into a bear child and nearly make a mess of everything!
So facing Little Baby’s preemptively used softening policy, she hesitated, “Actually, it’s nothing. I just didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to worry.”
“If mom doesn’t tell me, I’ll be even more worried!”
In the evening, when Little Demon Rong took him out for dinner, and they played video games and caught dolls, he was happy, but there was always an uneasy feeling inside him.
Even at the happiest of times, he felt a nagging unease.
This feeling was too uncomfortable.
If he weren’t so young, he really wanted to investigate what happened himself.
“Mom, I promise I won’t get angry, can you tell me, please?”
His clear-cut large eyes were extremely aggrieved, that nearly crying folded-ear cat look made Rong Yan’s heart clench.
She couldn’t tell Little Baby everything, or else he would surely worry more, so she only told him half, “At work, I accidentally hurt my arm, but it’s not serious, just a little scratch.”
To prove it was really just a minor injury, she particularly rolled up her sleeve to show him.
Li Duidui saw the bruise on her arm and immediately bit his little mouth, his face full of concern as he scrambled up from the sofa, “Mom, does it hurt?”
“What should we do… should we go to the hospital… I, I’ll call grandma.”
Rong Yan noticed he started panicking and spinning in circles as soon as he saw the bruise on her arm, about to look for the phone. She quickly held him back and said with warmth and amusement, “Alright, alright, it’s just a little scrape. I knew you’d worry, that’s why I didn’t tell you.”
“But it hurts!” Li Duidui’s heart was all tied up in knots, wishing the scrape on mom’s hand were on him instead, and stubbornly emphasized once more, “Mom hurts!”
He was about to cry, but he forced himself to hold it back, his milky voice persistently said, “When mom got hurt, it must have hurt a lot. It must have hurt when Doctor Uncle put medicine on you too. Mom was alone, with no one to accompany her. Duidui wasn’t good.”
He really, really wanted to grow up quickly, to grow as big as Big Bad Wolf, so he could always protect his mom, Little Demon Rong. When she got hurt, he could be by her side right away too.
Rong Yan was somewhat regretting that she couldn’t resist his tearful eyes and ended up telling him about her injury, which was not really that serious after all. She didn’t expect Little Baby’s reaction to be so intense.
“It doesn’t hurt, it doesn’t hurt at all. I don’t feel anything after the medicine. Really, it doesn’t hurt. Look, I’m raising my arm to show you.”
