At the supermarket downstairs.

The three children selected a load of snacks but had trouble at the checkout.

“Little kids, are you here alone? Where are your parents?” the lady boss asked. The three children’s temperaments were too outstanding. There was no doubt that they were children of a rich family, but still, it didn’t mean she could just casually swipe their card.

“Mommy is on a business trip and Daddy is busy. We’re here on our own to buy candies. This is Daddy’s card. Daddy said we may use it.” Li Baobao’s tone was so adorable that the lady boss’s heart melted.

However, she was still very cautious. After all, there were no adults accompanying them.

“In this case will you use Auntie’s phone to call your Daddy to confirm?”

Li Baobao took the phone from the lady boss. She had memorized Daddy’s number.

Chu Yichen had gone home and taken a shower. Just as he was getting ready for bed, his phone rang.

Disappointment flashed across her face when she saw that it wasn’t Li An’an’s number.

“Daddy, may Baobao use your card to buy things?” Chu Yichen replied, “Of course. That was my gift to you.”

“Thank you, Daddy. Goodbye, Daddy.”

“Wait, why are you out so late at night?” Li An’an didn’t come to see him, but she had the time to go shopping with her children.

Li Baobao pouted, deliberating if she should tell Daddy that Granny wouldn’t buy meat for her to eat and even scolded them. After thinking for a long time, she finally decided to complain because her teacher had said that if one did something wrong, then it ought to be corrected. Granny Li had done something wrong.

“Granny Li wouldn’t buy meat for Baobao. Baobao refuses to eat,”

Li Baobao sounded angry. She felt aggrieved and missed her mommy.

“Wouldn’t buy you meat?” Chu Yichen leaned against the bed and recalled the scene when he saw the child’s grandmother that day. Judging from her looks, she was not an easy person to get along with. She was not from a wealthy family, and favored sons over daughters.

“What about your aunt? She won’t cook for you, either?”

Li Baobao was stunned by the question again. After a long time, she finally said, “She’s gone. No more. But Mommy has gone on a business trip.”

Chu Yichen massaged his temples. Sometimes, it took a lot of brainpower to talk to a child. And even after asking many questions, he still couldn’t figure things out. He guessed that Li An’an wasn’t with them.

She wasn’t picking up calls, and now had even neglected the kids. Well done. “What do you feel like eating? I’ll send it to kindergarten for you tomorrow.”

Li Baobao was instantly overjoyed. “Baobao wants to eat chicken drumsticks, lots and lots of chicken drumsticks, and strawberries, and cakes, and Daddy has to come personally. I want my friends to see that I have a daddy.”

“Alright. I’ll come over tomorrow afternoon.”

“Thank you, Daddy.” Li Baobao tiptoed to return the phone to the lady boss.

“My daddy says I may use the card.”

The lady boss was talking to Chu Yichen.

“Hello, sir. So you’re agreeing to the child using your credit card?”

“No problem. They can buy whatever they want.”

“Okay, but you’re busy with work. You shouldn’t let the three children come out alone. It’s very unsafe.”

“Just the three of them?” Chu Yichen thought that their grandmother was accompanying them.

“Yes, but it’s okay if you’re busy with work. I can walk them upstairs.”

“Thank you! ”

The lady boss hung up the phone and swiped her card to send the three children back.

“Thank you, Auntie. That’s very kind of you.” Baobao said goodbye to the auntie adorably.

“You’re welcome. Next time, come with the adults.”

The more the lady boss looked at the three children, the more she liked them. They were really too beautiful. Then, she reluctantly went back downstairs. She decided that she wanted triplets as well. They were too cute. The little girl was tender and adorable. and the two little boys looked cool. They were really likable.

Li Baobao pushed open the door. Auntie Li came out of their small bedroom and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that they had returned.

“Where did you go? Did you go out? If you misbehave, bad people will take you away.” Auntie Li was scared out of her wits and spoke fiercely.

Li Baobao pouted. “You won’t let us have any meat!”

Seeing that the three children were unafraid, Auntie Li smiled instead. “It’s just meat, isn’t it? No big deal. Granny Li will buy lots of it tomorrow, okay? But you’re not to sneak out in the future. If you were to be captured by bad people, you won’t be able to see your mommy and auntie again. Eh, where did you get the money to buy so many snacks?”

Li Junjun tucked the card into his pocket and said calmly, “It’s from Auntie’s friend. We ran into her downstairs, but she’s gone now.”

Auntie Li was full of suspicion, but thinking about it, it was impossible for the children to be hiding any money. After all, she had already searched their pockets.

“Let me see what snacks you’ve bought. Are they delicious?”

She wanted to see if there were any snacks that her grandchildren liked, so that she could take a some home to them.

Li Junjun hid the bag behind him.

“They’re all children’s snacks. There’s no need for adults to look at them.”

With that, he held his younger siblings’ hands and headed back into the bedroom, locking the door behind them.

Auntie Li was furious. She rolled her eyes and went back to her room to sleep.

This Junjun was really smart and precocious. So she would have to buy some meat tomorrow to coax him, otherwise he might complain.

“Big Brother, I want to eat a lollipop first.”

Baobao peeled the wrapper off a big colorful lollipop and put it in her mouth. She squinted her eyes in satisfaction. It was delicious.

Li Junjun took out the lollipop from her mouth and stuffed a piece of cake into her hand. “No, you haven’t had dinner. You have to fill your stomach first.”

After saying that, he also gave one to Jünjbn.

“You can’t grow tall if you don’t fill your stomach.”

Initially, Li Jùnjùn had wanted to eat the candy first, but when he heard his brother’s words, he immediately picked up the cake and took a bite.

His mommy said that his elder brother was taller than him. No way, he didn’t want to be a shorty.

Seeing that Big Brother Jùnjùn had eaten, Baobao also ate the cake reluctantly, while keeping her eyes on the sweets. Yes, she had to eat all the candy today.

In the bedroom.

Chu Yichen was about to sleep when he received a call from Long Ting.

“What’s the matter now? If you can’t sleep, go to the bar. Don’t bother me!” His tone was irritable.

“No, I know where Li An’an went!”

Long Ting stared at the computer in disbelief. Afraid that he had made a mistake, he looked at it a few times. Vivian? It was obviously Li An’an.

She was really too cunning. If he hadn’t gone online to check the eyeballs the program was getting on the Internet, he might not have uncovered her plot. She had already sneakily entered the top 20.

Chu Yichen’s gaze turned icy. “Where has she gone?”

“You’ll know when I send you the video. Don’t be agitated. Let’s talk things out. If you punish her too harshly, there’ll be no one to cook my meals in the future.’

At this critical moment, Long Ting didn’t wish for Li An’an to suffer too much.

Chu Yichen hung up the phone without saying a word. Then, he received the video from Long Ting.

Seeing Li An’an’s high-spirited look in the video, Chu Yichen snapped the fountain pen on the bedside table into two.

Her solemn promise was still ringing in his ears. It was like mockery, but it was also as though she was mocking his over self-confidence.

Over and over again, he was shameless!

A moment later, Long Ting called again.

“What do you plan to do? Li An’an is very popular now. You can’t suddenly kick her out of the competition. This will have a huge impact on the show. There will be a lot of discussions about it and people will think there’s shady business involved. Can you calm down?”

His cousin had always prioritized his career, and should be able to maintain his cool.

“I can’t!” Chu Yichen hung up.

Long Ting suddenly had a bad feeling. Oh no, it wouldn’t affect his program, would it?

Damn it, was this some sort of debt he owed her in his previous life? What a troublemaker! She thought that she could hide something like participating in this competition? How brainless!
