“Thank you, Uncle Han,” Chi Jingchen responded swiftly, his polite and understanding demeanor in stark contrast to the way he had just been scolding Han Xiaoru.
Chi Enen couldn’t help but let out a choked laugh, pressing down on the top of his head as she courteously declined, “I’d like to take a walk with Jingchen.”
“I see,” Han Qjfeng said, although clearly disappointed, he still spoke like a gentleman, “I had a great time today, and if you have time another day, I’d like to invite you to dinner. Please be sure to grace me with your presence.”
Who could tell what would happen by then? Chi Enen wasn’t foolish; she didn’t want to make things awkward for the other person over something so uncertain, so she nodded her head, which was as good as agreeing. After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Han Qjfeng, she took her own Baby Chi’s hand and said goodbye to them both.
As soon as they walked out of the amusement park intersection, Chi Jingchen couldn’t hold back any longer and, feeling displeased, shook off her hand, demanding huffily, “Stupid woman, when the situation was so favorable, why did you reject his invitation?”
Chi Enen was amused by his anger—she hadn’t even begun their settlement yet. And here he was, losing his temper first. She crossed her arms, retorting irritably, “Why should I accept someone else’s invitation?”
“Of course, so he can marry you! Han Qjfeng has good prospects, a nice temperament, a simple family situation, and he’s kind of interested in you. If you don’t seize this kind of man, what exactly are you thinking? Don’t tell me you’re still thinking about my father?” Jingchen furrowed his eyebrows, a flicker of longing passed through his black eyes, but it vanished in the blink of an eye, and he muttered in a deflated tone, “Don’t think about that man. That man has no shame, he eats and doesn’t take responsibility.”
No shame… eats and doesn’t take responsibility…
Chi Enen imagined Li Beijue’s reaction if he heard his own son speak of him in such a way, and she felt a chill down her back.
Fortunately, Li Beijue didn’t know of Bae Chi’s existence.
If that man knew she was raising his biological son with a ‘widowed’ style of education, he would certainly strangle her in anger.
But the child was someone she had carried for ten months and given birth to with great difficulty; she didn’t want to share him with anyone.
However, while she didn’t want to share, there were some of Bae Chi’s worldviews that she still needed to set straight. Especially after today’s events, she felt it was extremely necessary to correct him properly.
No time like the present! Chi Enen squatted in front of him, took his sulking face in her hands, and asked earnestly, “Chi Jingchen, why are you so insistent on pairing Mr. Han and me together? Just because he has good conditions and is suitable?”
What else, you’re already at that age, and you’re bringing me along. Could you really find anyone better?”
Jingchen was awkward; privately, he didn’t really want some stranger intruding into their life, but everyone has a father, a husband. He could be without a father, but could his mother be without a husband?
“If… If you really like the man who took you home last night, that’s fine too, but let’s get this straight, you have to bring him to me first. I have to approve before you two can be together. If I don’t approve, then you can’t be together!”
He nagged again, “I’m not trying to break you two up, but you can tell you’re the kind of woman with small breasts and not a clever mind. Women like you are the easiest to be deceived by men. Our home is already so poor, and if he finds out you have no money, he might just kill you and dump your body.”
Murder and dumping bodies… Chi Enen was shaken by his twisted little worldviews.. Unable to help herself, she asked, “Babe Chi, where did you learn all this stuff?”
