“I’ll be very careful. I’ll be back soon. Sister Ming, you…” Before she could finish speaking, she heard the sound of the phone being hung up.?It looked like Sister Ming was really angry.?Chi Yaoxi sighed.?Forget it, I’ll explain to her when I get back.
Chi Yaoxi looked around vigilantly but did not find anyone suspicious. She lowered the brim of her cap a little more and pulled the little fellow’s hand towards the main door.
A black car was already waiting at the entrance of the mall. The little fella was about to get into the car when he saw his mommy waving at him. “Chenchen, be good. Go back with Daddy and take your things. Mommy will hitch a ride back to the hotel.”
The little fella’s face was filled with reluctance when he heard this. He then pulled Chi Yaoxi’s hand back. “How can that be? Mommy, you should get in the car with me. Even if you are going back to the hotel, Daddy will send you back. It’s difficult to get a taxi during the rush hour.”
Seeing the little fellow insist, Chi Yaoxi could only follow him and sit in the back seat. The two of them had just sat down and the car had yet to start when the little fella reached out to take the gift bag from Chi Yaoxi and directly handed it to Li Qianming.
“Daddy, this is Mommy’s one-week anniversary gift for you.”
What? A one-week anniversary gift? Didn’t the little fella say that his birthday was coming up and he wanted me to express it??Chi Yaoxi looked at the little fellow in shock, then at the man in the driver’s seat. She was momentarily embarrassed and speechless.
Li Qianming reached out to accept the gift. When he heard the little fellow mention the name of the gift and the saying ‘a one-week anniversary gift’, his cold and solemn face instantly changed. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up into a seductive arc.
From the rearview mirror inside the car, Chi Yaoxi unintentionally saw this unbelievable scene. Her eyes widened in shock. What was with this man’s expression? Why was he so happy after receiving a gift??Chi Yaoxi seriously suspected that she had seen the man with the long ice-cold face smile!
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his eyes, which were frozen by the coldness, suddenly glowed with a gentle light. His well-defined and handsome face looked even more handsome.
The man’s smile was short and simple, making it look even more precious. He was simply too charming. Chi Yaoxi’s immunity to handsome men was too low, and she felt her heart beating faster again.
When she turned around and saw that the little fellow was still at the side, Chi Yaoxi hurriedly pulled her thoughts back to reality.
The car drove on the main road back to the hotel. The little guy reached out his chubby little hand and clung onto his mommy’s neck, snuggling intimately into her embrace and even kissing her cheeks from time to time.
Chi Yaoxi felt the little fellow’s attachment and love for her, and her heart was also filled with happiness. What kind of coincidence was this? She heard the man say that the little guy was the one who chose her to be his mommy.
Chi Yaoxi gently caressed the furry little head in her arms. Her eyes were filled with motherly love as she stared at the precious son gifted to her by the heavens. Along the way, the little fellow took the initiative to talk about interesting topics with Chi Yaoxi. The man drove quietly, and the atmosphere was relaxed and harmonious.
They arrived at the hotel after another turn. Chi Yaoxi knew that there were often entertainment reporters waiting at the entrance of the hotel, so she couldn’t provoke those people. Hence, when they arrived at the hotel, Chi Yaoxi told Li Qianming to stop the car and walked down by herself.
In order not to be recognized, Chi Yaoxi put on a pair of sunglasses and continued walking forward.
Before she reached the hotel entrance, she saw two familiar figures. Her father, Chi Jianming, and her sister, Chi Jiaojiao, stood outside the hotel and blocked her way.?Why were they here? Did Chi Jiaojiao not have enough fun at the film set last time? She actually brought her father along this time.
Chi Jianming had a serious look on his face. When he saw Chi Yaoxi coming over, he pulled a long face. He even put on the airs of a father and took the initiative to ask for money. “Chi Yaoxi, you still haven’t paid for your living expenses this month. In the future, add another 20,000 yuan every month. I know you’re rich, so you can afford to pay for the family’s expenses.”
Her father, who had never given her any consideration, was rather straightforward in asking for money. Chi Yaoxi looked at Chi Jianming coldly, as if she was looking at a stranger. Her father didn’t like her since she was young. He only spoke coldly to her and didn’t care about her. However, he doted on her half-sister Chi Jiaojiao, and she is the apple of her father’s eye.
With such a stark contrast, Chi Yaoxi never said anything on the surface, but the scars in her heart could not be concealed.
Ever since she had experienced the scolding and the harsh slap from the harsh slap the previous time, the little bit of kindness between them had disappeared.
What kind of attitude was this??Chi Jianming had never seen such a scene before. Chi Yaoxi, the obedient girl who always performed well at home, actually looked at him strangely. Chi Jianming could not control his anger. He raised his voice and said impatiently, “Why? Do you want me to repeat myself?”
Chi Yaoxi curled her lips and her eyes were cold. She did not care about her father’s deliberately long face and directly rejected him coldly, “There’s no need. We won’t talk about it again. After what happened last time, I no longer have anything to do with you. Didn’t I already say this the other day!? ”
Chi Jianming felt utterly humiliated when he realized that his orders were useless. He stared fiercely at Chi Yaoxi. With a livid face, he continued angrily, “Your wings have hardened! The man you married is so rich, how can you be so lacking?”
Chi Yaoxi frowned, glaring at her father in shock, implying that he shouldn’t speak randomly.
Chi Jianming was not going to care so much. He looked even more greedy. “Li Qianming! Don’t you know that he’s such a rich tycoon? Or are you covering for him? Why is it that the more money you have, the stingier you are?”
She was truly speechless. Chi Yaoxi felt embarrassed for him when she heard this. Chi Jianming did not look like a father at all. He was obviously a sly old fox who was greedy for money and forgot about righteousness when it came to profits!
Chi Yaoxi’s face was grave and stern, saying bluntly, “It’s not the same person, they only have the same name! No matter who it is, stop daydreaming! Everyone knows the reason. From now on, don’t even think about getting a single cent from me! ”
After Chi Yaoxi finished speaking, she turned around domineeringly and went straight into the hotel. She also told the security guards at the entrance that these two people were harassing her and asked them to stop Chi Jianming and Chi Jiaojiao.
As he watched Chi Yaoxi leave the door and walk towards the elevator, Chi Jianming was furious. He shouted at her from behind, “Don’t think that I can’t do anything to you just because you have that man protecting you!”
The hotel’s security personnel were worried that there would be trouble. A few of them stepped forward to stop the aggressive Chi Jianming from entering the hotel.
The way Chi Jiaojiao looked at Chi Yaoxi was like she was looking at an enemy. She had been jealous of Chi Yaoxi’s pretty face, perfect figure, and her celebrity career.
Although her parents favored her more, Chi Jiaojiao felt that she had never had the upper hand in her fight with Chi Yaoxi. This accumulated more and more hatred towards Chi Yaoxi in Chi Jiaojiao’s heart.
While the security guards were not paying attention, Chi Jiaojiao suddenly moved her feet and rushed into the hotel lobby like a madwoman.
Chi Yaoxi heard quick and messy footsteps behind her. Before she could react, Chi Jiaojiao rushed up and grabbed her hair.
“You b*tch! Rotten b*tch! You found yourself a wild man to fool around with, yet you’re still not giving money to your family!”
