Chi Jingchen was still loyal and didnât back down. On the airplane, he had already thought about how to deal with The Neighbor Old Wang. However, speaking it out was still somewhat embarrassing for him. He pressed the corner of his mouth awkwardly and said, "Because I miss my woman."
"Also, we miss you too."
We miss you too!
Chi Enen never thought she would one day hear her Baby Chi say they missed Li Beijue; it was practically unheard of.
Nuonuo was now Baby Chiâs little follower. She perked up her ears, hearing her brother say he missed, immediately jumped up, and in a childish voice, said, "Nuonuo, miss! Nuonuo, miss!"
Chi Enen looked at the big one and the little one cooperating so well, the corner of her mouth turned up. She stood up, turned her head back, and said, "Li Beijue, never mind. Arenât you worried about Nuonuo and them too? Weâre pretty good as a family together."
The butler seized the opportunity and added, "Young Master, rest assured, Old Master Jue had no other intentions. He heard about Little Missâs illness and was concerned. He has brought quite a few blood experts from Country W to treat Little Miss. Little Miss and Little Young Master have already met Old Master Jue earlier. Old Master Jue brought Little Miss to do a medical checkup. Itâs just that Old Master Jue has been sick recently, and his body is not comfortable, so he didnât accompany Little Miss and Little Young Master here. Instead, it was Old Master Jue who asked me to bring Little Miss and Little Young Master over to see Miss Chi."
The reason Old Master Jue did this probably had something to do with the painting Little Young Master and Little Miss gave him.
However, Old Master Jue brought people over and agreed to let Little Miss and Little Young Master return to Miss Chiâs side, which at least indicates that Old Master Jueâs attitude is not as strong as imagined.
After all, in this situation, if Old Master Jue wanted, he could completely not let Little Miss and Little Young Master come over, concealing Miss Chi and young master, and arrange a safe place to hide them. Then use Little Young Master and Little Miss to negotiate terms with Miss Chi.
But Old Master Jue totally didnât do that!
After accompanying Little Miss through her medical checkup, he immediately had people bring Little Miss and Little Young Master over.
Li Beijue, being the kind of person he is, couldnât possibly fail to grasp what the butler was trying to express. He furrowed his eyebrows, unsure why the old man didnât follow his usual pattern this time.
"Master Jue, it was my mistake, Iâm sorry!" Huo Yi apologized respectfully.
Li Beijue, with so many eyes on him, pursed his thin lips into a line, "Wrong is wrong."
"Next door..." Chi Jingchen was afraid Huo Yi would be punished because of him, almost blurting out The Neighbor Old Wang.
Chi Enen also prepared to speak on behalf of Huo Yi.
Then they heard the man, although cold, in a voice that wasnât devoid of favor, "The old mansionâs toilet needs cleaning. For the next few days, youâre in charge of cleaning the toilet! Alone!"
Given how large the Li family is, there are at least twenty bathrooms in total, all for him alone, that workload...
Still, compared to Master Jueâs usual punishments, this was considered as light as can be. Huo Yi bowed his head respectfully and said, "Yes, Master Jue."
Chi Jingchen also knew, The Neighbor Old Wang was treated lightly, wisely choosing not to speak up for Huo Yi again.
He wasnât foolish; if he spoke up for Uncle Huo now, The Neighbor Old Wang might really get angry. Not only would Uncle Huo, but even he could get dragged down.
His smart eyes glanced at the cold-faced man.
The Neighbor Old Wang had already âpunishedâ Uncle Huo. So are we over with the incident of sneaking into Country W?
