Chapter 837: Chapter 837: Take Little Baby Inside First
Estelle was concerned about her, “And you?”
Rong Yan’s face darkened, and she glanced at the person gripping her arm with a grave expression, “I’ll stay outside to see what Mrs. Rong is up to.”
Li Duidui also realized that this woman, who was about the same age as his grandmother, meant no good. He clutched Rong Yan’s sleeve tightly and refused to let go, “I want to stay with mom.”
He was worried about his Little Demon Rong.
Rong Yan patted his head, “Be good. Listen to Mommy, Duidui.”
Then she said to Estelle, “Estelle, could you take Duidui inside for me? I’m not at ease leaving him out here.”
Who knows what Jiang Meiqi is up to coming here; if she happens to hurt Duidui, it would break her heart.
Estelle, being a mother herself, understood what Rong Yan was thinking. Despite her worries, she hummed in agreement, took the little one’s hand, and said softly, “Duidui, be a good boy and go inside with Auntie to wait for your mom, okay?”
Li Duidui originally didn’t want to let go, but when he caught Rong Yan’s disapproving gaze, he pursed his lips tightly, looking like a bewildered child, stubbornly holding onto Rong Yan’s sleeve, neither declaring he wouldn’t go nor letting go.
When Rong Yan called his name again, he suddenly looked up, his eyes reddening as if he was about to cry. He turned his head and shot Jiang Meiqi, who was making a scene, a terrifying look, as murderous as if he wanted to kill Jiang Meiqi, causing her heart to skip a beat.
This child couldn’t possibly be the bastard that the little wild thing went to great lengths to hide, could he? He looked rather decent, but he seemed to lack manners!
Yes, after all, the little bastard himself was an ungrateful wolf that could never be tamed. What good could come from what he sired!
Her gaze at Li Duidui then became gloomy, “Is he your son? Why doesn’t he call me grandma? How do you teach your child? He’s so big, and he doesn’t even know how to call his grandma?”
Rong Yan ignored her, pried Little Baby’s hands off, squatted down, touched his head, and said softly as if negotiating, “Duidui, listen to Mommy. Go inside with the pretty auntie first. Mommy will come over to find you very soon, okay?”
Li Duidui knew she was deceiving him, but facing Rong Yan’s pleading look, he couldn’t utter a word of refusal. His nose felt sour, and he reluctantly released his grip, pouting his lips, “Then you must come to find me quickly.”
“Sure, I’ll be over very quickly. Don’t worry, I’ll be right at the company’s entrance, with so many security uncles around. Nothing will happen.”
“…” Li Duidui pursed his lips without making a sound, obediently allowing Estelle to lead him away.
In truth, he wanted to say that even with many security uncles around, he wouldn’t feel at ease; he would only feel safe if he himself was there. But he was too small now and still needed Little Demon Rong’s protection; he couldn’t protect Little Demon Rong. Staying here would only add to Little Demon Rong’s burden, so it was better to listen to her and go inside with the pretty auntie…
He understood all this, yet as Estelle led him inside, he kept looking back every three steps, always appearing as if he wanted to run back to Rong Yan to throw a tantrum and refuse to leave.
Before going inside, Estelle looked deeply at Rong Yan, “I’ll take the little one inside first. Take care of yourself.”
“Let’s go, Duidui.” Estelle led the little one thoroughly inside.
When Jiang Meiqi saw the little bastard being taken away, her face fell. She ranted, “Where is he going? The first time he meets his own grandma, and this is his attitude? Hmph, just as the saying goes, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree! You can’t give birth to anything good.”
