âPfft.â Rong Yan didnât expect Little Baby to say that to her, and she couldnât help but pass the milk over, helplessly saying, âYou can eat!â
âIf mom doesnât eat, I wonât eat either.â Li Duidui was particularly stubborn, implying that if Rong Yan didnât eat, neither would he.
If his Little Demon Rong didnât want to eat, then he had no desire to eat either.
Rong Yan had wanted to threaten someone, but instead, she found herself being threatened by her own Little Baby. She was momentarily at a loss for words and didnât know what to do.
She looked up and decisively threw the problem over to the instigator, âLi Shengxiao, if youâre not eating, then weâre not eating either.â
Li Shengxiao was rarely threatened by anyone, but he had to admit, the childish threat of the little woman in front of him had indeed affected him.
His eyes softened, and his voice grew husky, âIâll wait for your call at noon.â
That meant he wanted to have a phone date at noon, to talk while eating lunch.
Rong Yan breathed a long sigh of relief in her heart. The handsome little boy next to her seemed to have thought of something and, uneasy, also demanded, âI want to video call with mom at noon.â
He needed to supervise Little Demon Rong eating, or he wouldnât feel at ease!
All at once, Rong Yan had two more tasks to worry about and it made her head spin. But Little Baby was looking at her with such eager eyes, it seemed like he wouldnât be able to eat breakfast if she didnât agree.
âGot it, Mummy will send you a video at noon.â Rong Yan was mentally figuring out how much time she could spare for the ad shoot at noon and wondering if the brandâs staff would have any concerns about her making a one-hour phone call. But there was no way around it; she couldnât just ignore her family and not let them eat.
While eating breakfast, she was pondering whether she should talk to the director upon arrival at the shooting location and ask for an hour off at noon, just in case the shooting wasnât going well and the director decided to work through lunch to catch up; she wouldnât have time to call them.
With Little Baby, at least Mrs. Lin was there.
As for Li Shengxiao⦠she really wasnât too confident about that.
Last nightâs fish congee was soft, fragrant, and sweet, quite tasty. Rong Yan was enjoying the fruits of her labor from the previous evening when Estelleâs call came in.
Rong Yan answered, âHello, Estelle. Yes, Iâm up. Now? Iâm still having breakfast. Youâre all downstairs already?! Okay, Iâll come down right away, give me a few minutes.â
She put down her phone, suddenly busy. She hurriedly ate a few bites of her meal, put down the utensils, and said, âIâm full, you guys eat slowly.â
Li Shengxiao watched as she had only eaten a few bites before getting ready to leave and he firmly handed her the milk, âDrink this before you go down.â
Rong Yan ate fast but that didnât mean she hadnât eaten much. Moreover, she had an ad to shoot and couldnât afford to be too full, so she didnât really want to drink it, âEstelle and the others are waiting for me downstairs, Iâll drink this when I come back.â
In most things, Li Shengxiao was very indulgent toward her, but on this matter, he was particularly domineering, âI can have Gu Ming drive you there!â
Rong Yan, ââ¦â
A wise man knows better than to fight a losing battle. She took the full glass of milk, tilted her head back, and guzzled it down, then set down the glass. In a rush, she said, âThereâs no time, I really have to go. Baby, mwah.â
âMama, mwah.â
Li Shengxiao narrowed his eyes, originally wanting to pull her back to tell her she had forgotten something important.
But Rong Yan was already running fast, her movement creating echoes at the entryway, and then the door closed.
