Li Duidui wouldnât eat it up, his gaze didnât change one bit, âItâs because mom doesnât trust Duidui⦠Mom must be hiding something from me, not telling me.â
His grape-like big eyes showed a hurt expression, he pouted his little mouth, and looked at Rong Yan, âIf mom doesnât talk, Iâll be more worried.â
âI promise I wonât get angry, wonât scold mom. Canât you tell me?â His little milk voice was extremely aggrieved.
Originally Rong Yan wanted to act pitiful to him so he wouldnât keep asking, but he pulled this move on her first, and to her chagrin, she found that she had no resistance to Little Babyâs tactics at all!
However, having no resistance didnât mean that she could risk telling him about tonightâs adventure, because tonight was an accident, and she hadnât anticipated any danger at the time. She had thought to herself before that if there was danger, she would definitely drop everything and just inform the Rong Family.
Who would have thought sheâd bump into a bear child and nearly make a mess of everything!
So facing Little Babyâs preemptively used softening policy, she hesitated, âActually, itâs nothing. I just didnât tell you because I didnât want you to worry.â
âIf mom doesnât tell me, Iâll be even more worried!â
In the evening, when Little Demon Rong took him out for dinner, and they played video games and caught dolls, he was happy, but there was always an uneasy feeling inside him.
Even at the happiest of times, he felt a nagging unease.
This feeling was too uncomfortable.
If he werenât so young, he really wanted to investigate what happened himself.
âMom, I promise I wonât get angry, can you tell me, please?â
His clear-cut large eyes were extremely aggrieved, that nearly crying folded-ear cat look made Rong Yanâs heart clench.
She couldnât tell Little Baby everything, or else he would surely worry more, so she only told him half, âAt work, I accidentally hurt my arm, but itâs not serious, just a little scratch.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
To prove it was really just a minor injury, she particularly rolled up her sleeve to show him.
Li Duidui saw the bruise on her arm and immediately bit his little mouth, his face full of concern as he scrambled up from the sofa, âMom, does it hurt?â
âWhat should we do⦠should we go to the hospital⦠I, Iâll call grandma.â
Rong Yan noticed he started panicking and spinning in circles as soon as he saw the bruise on her arm, about to look for the phone. She quickly held him back and said with warmth and amusement, âAlright, alright, itâs just a little scrape. I knew youâd worry, thatâs why I didnât tell you.â
âBut it hurts!â Li Duiduiâs heart was all tied up in knots, wishing the scrape on momâs hand were on him instead, and stubbornly emphasized once more, âMom hurts!â
He was about to cry, but he forced himself to hold it back, his milky voice persistently said, âWhen mom got hurt, it must have hurt a lot. It must have hurt when Doctor Uncle put medicine on you too. Mom was alone, with no one to accompany her. Duidui wasnât good.â
He really, really wanted to grow up quickly, to grow as big as Big Bad Wolf, so he could always protect his mom, Little Demon Rong. When she got hurt, he could be by her side right away too.
Rong Yan was somewhat regretting that she couldnât resist his tearful eyes and ended up telling him about her injury, which was not really that serious after all. She didnât expect Little Babyâs reaction to be so intense.
âIt doesnât hurt, it doesnât hurt at all. I donât feel anything after the medicine. Really, it doesnât hurt. Look, Iâm raising my arm to show you.â
