Chapter 271: The Neighbor Old Wang is My Father?!
Chi Enen asked this question with a bit of nervousness, fearing that he would say he didnât like it.
âItâs not that I donât like himâ¦â Chi Jingchenâs little face twisted in thought, and while glancing at the Band-Aid on his arm with the corner of his eye, he muttered softly, âI just think Han Qifeng is a better match for you⦠Uncle Li is too handsome, easy to cheat. Havenât I told you? Good-looking men are often unreliable.â
âYouâll be a good-looking man in the future, wonât you be unreliable too?â Chi Enen asked with a smile.
He immediately jumped up to retort, âThatâs different! Iâm your son, and heâs a man! Even if Iâm unreliable, I wonât be unreliable to you, but I canât say the same for him. With his looks, and what if he also has a bit of money, could he lack admirers? Even in our kindergarten, boys as handsome as I am have girls chasing after them, so his admirers must be even more! What if he canât control himself and then realizes you have such small breasts and gets bored quickly? He could simply find someone prettier, but what would you do?â
Chi Enen was really at her witâs end with him. She stretched out her hand and pulled his cheek, pretending to be angry, âChi Jingchen! Am I that ugly? Are my breasts really so flat?!â
Baby Chiâs face, which he was proud of, was pulled like an Indian Flying Cake, his hands flailing in protest, but his complaints came out in stifled sobs, unintelligible.
Chi Enen let go of him after a few pulls, then suddenly said seriously, âBae Chi.â
Chi Jingchenâs handsome face still smarted a little, and he felt somewhat irritated. The little guy, who had just been willing to admit his mistake, was now back to his usual self. Rubbing his cheeks, he looked up impatiently, giving her a little white-eye like an aristocratic little young master, âWhat now?â
âDo you want a father?â
ââ¦â The handsome boy rubbing his cheeks paused for a moment in his action.
Chi Enen pressed on, âI mean your own biological father, not someone elseâs.â
A flicker of longing crossed Chi Jingchenâs eyes, but it was just for a moment before he regained his usual demeanor, with a sneer, âI donât want one at all. That man is shameless, he hit and didnât take responsibility. Chi Enen, how many times have I told you? Donât keep pining for that man. If you really want to find someone, find a good one. Donât fall for that kind of man again.â
âHeâs not one to hit and not take responsibility; he didnât even know about youâ¦â
âDidnât know about me? Pfft, wouldnât he know his own flesh and blood?â Not wanting is not wanting, what does âdidnât knowâ mean? His mother is so naive, actually believing the lies men tell. Such lies, even a five-year-old wouldnât believe! Anyway, he didnât believe them!
Chi Enen clenched her teeth, gathering her courage to tell him, âBecause I didnât want him to know. I was too selfish back then, afraid youâd be taken away from me, so I always kept it from him. He didnât know anything.â
At that time, she hadnât begun to like Li Beijue yet.
Li Beijue was also so domineering and forceful in nature.
She was genuinely afraid that Li Beijue would unreasonably snatch Baby Chi away from her, and from that moment on, she would never see her child again.
Back then, she was only in her teens and had already experienced betrayal, heartbreak, loss, and had gotten pregnant. She had nothing, and she couldnât afford to lose Baby Chi as well.
Chi Jingchen fell silent for a while, then suddenly asked, âWoman, youâre not going to tell me that Uncle Li next door is my father, are you?â
