Li Shengxiao watched the pair of mother and son playing and joking, glanced at the time, and interjected, “The car is here; let’s go.”
“Okay.” Rong Yan stood up, hand in hand with the little one, her face still adorned with a smile. She turned her head to ask, “Li Shengxiao, are you really not going to the office today?”
“It just so happens to be my day off, no need to go!” The handsome man with a composed expression casually remarked as if it really was just so.
Rong Yan always felt it was too coincidental, “But you didn’t mention anything yesterday…”
Every time she took a day off, he would also take one. Wasn’t that too much of a coincidence?
Li Shengxiao paused, his deep eyes landing on her, bottomless as if there were no end in sight, “Yanyan, are you sure you want me to tell you?”
Rong Yan’s heart skipped a beat, shamefully diverting her gaze first, and coughed, “Ahem… well, it was just a casual question, no need to mind me.”
Oh!
Why did she feel that if she kept asking, he would kiss her and tell her that today’s day off was no coincidence but all because of her?
… Never mind, Duidui was still here; better not to ask any further.
Downstairs, Mr. Gu’s car was already waiting for them. Upon seeing them come down, he hurriedly opened the car door for them, respectfully greeting, “Mr. Li, Miss Rong, young master, good morning.”
“Assistant Gu, good morning.” Rong Yan smiled sweetly.
Li Duidui saw her smiling and greeting, and followed suit obediently, “Mr. Gu, good morning.”
His baby voice was so adorably cute. Hearing it made Mr. Gu feel incredibly honored, “Good morning, young master.”
The man who had been walking in front, with one hand already on the car door, heard the exchange and suddenly said, “Good morning.”
This ‘good morning’ was like a clap of thunder, nearly dumbfounding Mr. Gu, who stuttered, “Mr… Mr. Li, good morning.”
He had come to realize that if Miss Rong replied to him, both the old and the young would show him respect; this respect wasn’t really for him, but actually for Miss Rong!
In an effort to conceal his realization, Mr. Gu quickly went about opening the car door, saying, “Miss Rong, please get in the car first. The peak hour is coming up, and I’m afraid there will be a traffic jam on the overpass to the amusement park. It’s better to leave early.”
“Yes, okay.” Rong Yan hadn’t caught the little detail and, upon hearing him mention a traffic jam, led the little one onto the car, then promptly followed herself.
Li Shengxiao was the last to board, casually pulling the car door shut.
Mr. Gu, who had been standing beside the car ready to shut the door for them, saw the distinguished man personally doing it and quickly hustled to the driver’s seat. After buckling up, he stepped on the gas, heading toward the largest amusement park in Capital City…
In the car, Rong Yan found an animated movie on her phone for the little one. Once he was engrossed with the phone in his arms, she turned to Li Shengxiao as if she had just remembered something, “Li Shengxiao, are you sure you want to come with us to the amusement park? There will be a lot of people, and it might be noisy. Are you comfortable with that?”
Cui Jiangjing had mentioned that the man in front of her really disliked crowded places. A noisy environment could make him irritable and easily trigger his headaches.
With amusement parks being crowded and full of kids, the noise was inevitable, and Rong Yan was a bit worried.
The handsome man’s attention moved from the newspaper on his lap to her, and with seemingly deep meaning, he said, “With you there, it should be alright.”
‘With you there, because it’s not a problem’… Rong Yan silently closed her mouth.
Alright then, if he said it was no problem, it must be no problem!
After all, before leaving the house, she had secretly brought along headache medicine for him. So, no fear of headache…
